Adrian suddenly blocked their way, bringing something unexpected—a sacred, glowing blue sword, a weapon that no ordinary human should possess.
"Damn vampires! Get lost!" Adrian roared as he swung his sword directly at Clayton.
"Take care of Odel!" Clayton shouted as he stepped forward to intercept.
"Got it!" Emilio and Daffin responded instantly, swiftly taking Odel away from the scene.
Adrian's slash seemingly cut through Clayton, but the man dissolved into a black mist, untouchable.
"Old trick!"
Adrian pulled something from his pocket and threw it toward the moving black mist. The moment it made contact, Clayton's form became visible again.
"You think you can escape me, huh?" Adrian lunged forward, his long sword glowing once more, aiming for Clayton. However, the vampire finally got serious—his eyes glowed red, and his fangs emerged.
