Chereads / Outcast vampire / Chapter 2 - Ch 2

Chapter 2 - Ch 2

"A vampire rejected by humans, known by the name Arcidus, though his real name is Kyson Ver Martinez. On the edge of life and death, with no hope left, a traveler appeared and saved his life. But why was this human different from the others? Is there a world where humans and vampires can live together in peace and equality?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kyson accepted Justin's hand and followed him to a new land. The golden sun shone on the city, and its people were lively. What Kyson saw felt like a dream. Humans and vampires were happily living side by side. Astonished, Kyson said, "At first, I thought this was a joke, but this place really exists!" 

Justin smiled, "I knew you'd be surprised and happy to see this place." 

Kyson, smiling, said, "I was worried I wouldn't be accepted by the people here, but I don't even need to change my appearance." 

Justin replied, "Don't worry, everyone here accepts each other just as they are." 

Kyson continued to follow Justin. They kept walking until they reached a market. A young woman approached Justin and said, "You're back so soon, I thought your trip would be longer!" She was both happy and surprised to see Justin.

 Justin smiled, "Thanks, Nellie. Something unexpected happened 

along the way, so I had to come back." Nellie looked at Kyson and asked,

 "Does it have to do with this man?" Justin said, "Yes, when I found him, he

 was dying. I was really lucky to find him in time." 

Kyson said, "Excuse me, young lady, aren't you afraid of me?"

 Nellie thought for a moment and said, "Why should I be afraid?" 

Stuttering, Kyson said, "Well, I... I'm a vampire, after all..." 

Nellie replied, "I know that, but you're not scary at all."

 Kyson was shocked and thought, "All my majesty has been reduced to nothing!" 

He was frozen. The people of his land were all terrified of him, and even the mere mention of his name made them shiver. But the woman standing in front of him said he wasn't scary at all. 

Justin took Kyson's arm and said, "It's quite normal here; you'll get used to it gradually." He smiled.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Justin took Kyson to his home and 

said, "You must be really tired, right?" Kyson, with pride, responded, "It's

 nothing, I don't get tired that easily." Justin replied, "Anyway, you've just

 arrived in this city and you don't have a place to stay. Until you find a home, you can live in my house." 

Kyson felt that accepting Justin's offer would crush his pride, but he had no other choice; if he didn't go to Justin's house, he would have to sleep on the street. With a face full of hatred and frown, Kyson said, "I'll sleep at your place tonight, but tomorrow I will find a place of my own." 

Justin thought, "It seems he doesn't like to put his pride aside; he must be a noble vampire." He smiled.

Kyson sat on the floor and leaned against the wall.

 Justin said, "The floor is cold; I have plenty of chairs here." 

Kyson frowned and said, "I don't want to use any of your things and owe you more."

 Justin replied, "Come on, we're friends."

 Kyson asked, "Friends? What does friendship even mean?" 

Justin responded, "You really don't know?!" 

Kyson said, "If you want me to listen to you, you have to order me like a servant; otherwise, I won't do anything."

Justin got a bit angry and stayed silent. 

Kyson said, "See, you can't do it. All the people in this land act strangely like you. It's really ridiculous." 

Justin, with a serious look, said, "You're right, I shouldn't be kind to someone like you."

 Kyson looked at him in surprise. Justin took off his coat and placed it on the table. Then he unbuttoned his collar and said, "Drink my blood right now, that's an order." 

Kyson smirked and said, "So you accept being my master." 

Kyson took Justin's silence as confirmation. Kyson stood up and said, "You asked

 for this yourself!"

Justin : "Drink my blood how much as you please."

Kyson: "I prefer the blood of women, but this time I had to drink from you." Justin smiled, "If I'm your master, you

 shouldn't drink anyone else's blood without my permission, understood?" Kyson smirked, "Whatever you say.

Justin had gone to find a suitable home for Kyson. Unsure of how Kyson would behave with others, he decided to go without him. 

One of Justin's friends noticed the marks on Justin's neck and said, "Why is your neck injured?!" 

Justin replied, "Don't worry, I'm fine, Albert." 

Albert said, "But..." 

Justin explained, "I let a vampire bite me, so don't worry." He smiled.

 Albert smiled and said, "If that's the case, then I'm relieved." 

Justin said, "By the way, I'm looking for a house for that vampire. Can you help me?" 

Albert, surprised, asked, "A house? You brought a vampire from another land?" 

Justin replied, "Yes, that's why it's hard to get along with him. It will take time for him to get used to this place." Nervously, he put his hand on his forehead. 

Albert said, "Leave it to me, I know a good place." He winked.

 Justin brought Kyson to a new house where he could comfortably live. Kyson, surprised, said, "You found a house for me so quickly?" 

Albert replied, "Don't worry about the money; this place has been abandoned for a long time and left unused. It just needs some renovation and tidying up." 

Justin added, "If you need my help, just let me know." He smiled. 

Kyson thought, "These people don't know who I really am. It's better if they don't know, because I can take advantage of them more easily and take my revenge."

 Kyson said, "It's not very impressive, but it's fine." 

Justin said, "How arrogant, is this your way of thanking me?" 

Kyson replied, "I owe you, so there's no need to thank." 

Albert smiled and said, "I'm glad you like it." 

Kyson thought, "This is a new beginning, not too bad at all." He smiled. 

Justin said, "It's a surprise to see you smile." 

Kyson thought, "I didn't think I could laugh with others again. Maybe it's not so bad."

And so Kyson began a new life.
