In the previous chapter:
"Mirai!!",Hitoshi yelled out her name.She couldn't process what was happening.
:Present time:
"Damn!He got her!",Hitoshi thought to himself while looking at the figure of the other blood sucker.
"I can't attack him like this,he'll hurt Mirai",Hitoshi tried to think of a plan.
"Human girls certainly have a very tempting aroma,don't you think,Prince?",the voice said.
"This voice...don't tell me it's the chief guard who was guarding the scroll at the main castle",Hitoshi couldn't believe that such a trusted comrade would betray him.
"I can't believe you betrayed us,Adam",Hitoshi said in a heavy voice.
"Oh?You recognized me?As expected.Anyways,I'll get straight to the main point...you see while guarding the great scroll,I was never given the respect and honor I intended to recieve.I wasn't satisfied with what I was offered.So,I thought why not do something that would benefit me in both ways?",Adam said without any hesitation in his voice.
"And that's why you committed such a heinous crime?I thought you were smarter than the other guards but guess my thought went in vain".Hitoshi said in a pitiful voice.
"Oh,don't worry about it I was paid a huge amount just by telling them where the scroll was",Adam replied with a smirk.
"Now you are going to get a death penalty.But,I'm warning you,keep the women out of this.She didn't do anything",Hitoshi was able to maintain his cold voice.
"I hate to fight vampires...but guess I have no choices",Hitoshi thought while forming a fighting strategy in his mind.
"I need a refill to fight,so that's why I took this chick,you planned the same thing,didn't you?"Adam said while looking at Mirai's nape.
"Don't compare me with yourself,you bastard!",Hitoshi got real angry this time.
"Hitoshi carefully took out something from his pocket that looked like a pistol."So you carry this around with yourself,I see",Adam was starting to get nervous."This is not good...I just have my sword with me right now and if I get shoot with those glass stakes,I'm done for.Adam was thinking when he felt something move in his arm.Mirai was kept unconscious by a spell all this time.The spell was starting to take off.
"You are awake,missy?"Adam asked while looking at Mirai who just gained back consciousness.She saw Hitoshi gun pointing the man she was held hostage by,the man was holding her so tight that it was starting to hurt.Mirai started to figure it out.She was shocked.
"Are you two,by any chance,vampires?"She asked in a shaking voice.
"You got that right missy",Adam replied while smirking.
Mirai was distracting Adam without noticing.That created an opportunity for Hitoshi to shoot Adam.He was terribly angry now.He could tear Adam into pieces.
"He can probably dodge the stack with his sword...I need to be very careful".Hitoshi thought while trying to target one of Adam's vital organ.
Hitoshi shot him.He was shot in his arm.It was enough to kill him,but it was going to take some time."Now I have to free Mirai",he sighed in relief.But just then,he heard Mirai's painful cry.She screamed in pain.Hitoshi started to get flashbacks from the back of his mind just by hearing her painful howls.
Adam bit her nape.Hitoshi's eyes widened."I have to protect her",he felt a sudden urge.Hitoshi pushed Adam away from Mirai with full force.Clear murderousness was visible in his eyes.
"How dare you?!",he started punching Adam hysterically.
"You seem to value this girl.So I thought why not make her my last meal?",Adam said in a mocking tone.Hitoshi's blood started to boil in anger.He continued to punch Adam without any stop.
"Die!Likes of you are a disgrace for us!",Hitoshi turned into beast.Not physically,but mentally.Hitoshi didn't stop punching Adam until he took his last breath.He's face was completely damaged,making it hard to identify him.
Hitoshi took deep breathes,he had to save Mirai."She screamed just like her,she was in pain,I couldn't protect her,just like that time",just the thought of it made him agitated.He went to Mirai to check if she was still breathing.To his surprise,she was still alive.But if he didn't take any measures,it wouldn't be long before she dies.
"Okay,the only way to save her is to take to Luciana.But how?Even if I leave using the spell,I can't take her with me without the mirror",he was trying to figure out how was he going to save her."If the driver finds out this mess,there will be another problem.He thought of a way.
Hitoshi carefully carried Mirai to the car.The man who drove them here was waiting in the car,he couldn't sense there presence.
"Excuse me, can you come out for a minute?",Hitoshi said in his normal voice.
"Yes sir",the man humbly replied and came out.Before he could say anything,Hitoshi placed him under a spell.
"Sleep.Sleep till I order you to come back",he activated the spell.The man passed out."I'll place a paralysis seal on him just in case the spell breaks",he thought before placing another seal on the driver.
"We have to leave now",Hitoshi said to himself before he got inside the car.He laid down Mirai in the backsit of the car.The passed out driver was placed on the front sit.Hitoshi drove to his home as fast as he could.He didn't waste a minute."I just need to take my sword",Hitoshi rushed towards the armory. The body of the driver was taken to the basement of his house.
Hitoshi took Mirai in his arms and went to the room with the huge mirror.He ordered the mirror to take them to the first dimension.
"Don't worry,I'll save you,I won't let you die on me",he said to unconscious Mirai,whom he was carrying protectively.
