[Shadow Devourer]
[-25 SP]
[SP: 20/100]
[1 Shadow Devoured!]
[7/100 Shadows Required To Be Devoured!]
The Dhampir didn't notice when Miller's shadow changed shape and ate his own Shadow. Miller needed a distraction to do it and that was the perfect distraction he could think of.
As the Shadow ate the Dhampir's shadow they came back to Miller. Miller shadow had turned to a half circle that had mouth and was sharp. It was the form his Shadow took whenever he activated the Shadow Devourer.
As the Shadow turned back to Miller's own shape. Miller could see that his Shadow thicker than ever. His guess was that maybe it was due to the fact that Dhampir got Stronger with any Vampire they kill and he was sure that this Dhampir would have killed a lot. The sad part about this 'Shadow Devourer' was the fact that only his Shadow would get stronger and not his physical self. Right now, Miller's shadow was only at 20 and he needed to use his Energy Manipulation or the Shadow Strategically in other not to run out in the middle of the fight.
Even the System hadn't granted him a quest reward for fighting. This was due to the fact that he hadn't attacked yet, only the Dhampir had attacked.
The Dhampir was honestly confused. His body felt a bit weak. But not totally weak. As he just felt about 50 Percent of his body strength leave him.
"What did you do to me." The Dhampir said in anger. "Are you with the witches and wizards. Are you in the.."
"Are you with the Council of Mages?" the Dhampir snarled.
Miller gave a sly smile. "I'll never tell you." He said. "But yes, I am part of an organization of witches and wizards." Miller lied. In reality, he was shocked that there was a council made of witches and wizards. Seeing how Strong, Cathrine is with Magic, he knew there would certainly be people Stronger than her. The problem is if this people Decided to attack him for any reason. Could he survive?
The Dhampir's eyes widened. "The Council of Mages we have been searching for it for years. I thought they were all dead."
"Not all of us." Miller said. "But what council do you mean?" The reason why Miller could ask this question because for the first time he had heard the Dhampir's heat bit loudly as a sign of fear. He was also using it against him.
"If you don't know my Council. You are certainly a lier." The Dhampir had caught Miller's false act.
"Then i would have to kill you." The Dhampir said.
"Let me see you try." Miller said. In an instant, the Dhampirs body turned invisible like he wasn't there.
Miller was high on alert as he got into a fighting stance. His shoulder wound has completely healed. Something strange started to happen, he had depended on his Super Hearing to pick up where the Dhampir was, but he was hearing footsteps everywhere.
"Is this some kind of trick or what." Miller complained out loud.
"Oh, it certainly is. I am going to use your Senses against you." The Dhampir voice echoed everywhere in the woods.
In an instant from Miller's back a certain green liquid was poured at him.
[Green Energy]
Using his Green Energy, he was able to form a green Shield blocking the liquid from touching his body and with his right hand, he created a sharp long sword and then stretched it forward and it pierced the Dhampir in his stomach.
"I had got you." Miller said happily.
The Dhampir instantly moved backwards as the Sword was drawn out of his stomach by Miller. His wound covered immediately and that skin was brand new. The Dhampirs body was no longer invisible and Miller saw his healing rate even faster than his own.
"How did you..." Miller wasn't able to complete his sentence as the Dhampir dashed towards him.
"You Must Die!" The Dhampir said and then flung his blade and then an invisible energy left his blade heading towards Miller.
Out of Instincts Miller created a big barrier to block the attack. With his Super Hearing, he could hear the sound of the invisible energy moving at a fast speed through the air.
BANG!
The invisible energy hit the shield causing it to shatter instantly and still went forward to hit Miller causing his body to forcefully hit a tree.
[-25 EP]
[EP: 75/100]
[HP: -30]
[HP: 50/100]
'Oh My. He did this with a single hit.' Miller thought.
In an instant the Dhampir was in front of him and had moved at a great that he looked like a blur in the sight of Miller.
THUD!
A kick was sent to Miller's chin. It was so strong that his body hit the ground and then a kick to his ribs causing the ribs bones to break instantly.
The Dhampir raised Miller with one hand and then threw Miller to a tree causing him to crash into the tree breaking the tree in the process.
[HP: 15/100]
Lying crumpled on the forest floor, Miller gasped for breath, his body broken and bruised. The wounds on his skin began to bleed, and he could feel the warm blood trickling down his face. His HP bar, a visual representation of his health and vitality, was down to 15 out of 100. One more hit could be the end of him.
But even in his battered state, Miller's mind was racing. How could he defeat this powerful opponent? How could he win when he was so outmatched? He searched his mind for an answer, but all he could find was darkness.
[The User's 'HP' has gone really low and he is advised to go 'Killer Mode' to protect himself]
This thought was quickly swept away from his mind. He didn't want to kill anyone, but right now maybe the death of this Dhampir would do him more good than harm. Although the System had promised Miller that if Killer Mode would only Kill One person and revert back. The only time he wouldn't revert back is when a strong danger is still there. But still Miller didn't complete trust the System.
The Dhampir was now in front of Miller, pointing his sword, which was only an inch away from Miller's forehead.
"Miller, A War is coming." The Dhampir said. "A War in Which the Vampire Race would be wiped out."
"Heed my warning. Do not interfer in any war that includes the Vampires." The Dhampir said. "It's for your own safety."
And with that he left the scene with lightning speed...
