Chapter 190 - 190 Chapter 190: New Quest
“Even if we’re to go with you, you’ll have to duel one of us in a fight. We’ll have to see how strong you are. Would you be able to fight a vampire if you come across one.” The second brother said.
“When are we having the duel, I’m ready if you’re ready. If I win the fight, one of you two is going with me, if otherwise, then I won’t bother you anymore. Deal?” Kevin said.
The two brothers looked at each other before glaring back at Kevin.
“Okay. Let’s fight.”
The ongoing match was put to an end as Kevin and Simon’s brother; Sam went inside the battle ring to have a fight.
“Our match will be based on how good you are with sword. As you know that sword is the only thing we could use to fight the vampires. Our magic is weak against them now that they have the blood ability.” Sam explained.
“Okay. So how do we decided the winner.” Kevin asked.
“The winner draws the first blood. Are you in?”
.....
“Okay, let’s get this done with.” Kevin smirked.
Due to how skillful he is with sword, and how powerful he got after unsheathing the Kara’s sword, Kevin was confident he could draw the first blood from his opponent.
Yes, the opponent in front of him is huge while he’s like a dwarf beside him, but that makes it easier for him to draw the first blood.
The match had begin and both opponents had charged at each other.
Kevin was quick to slide out of the way as Sam swung his sword hard at him.
Although Kevin was yet to unsheathe his sword.
Sam came swinging his sword at him again, and Kevin only managed to dodge it slightly.
He could see that Sam has the Kara sword, so his attacks were fast and strong.
“What is Kevin doing? Why is he not unsheathing his sword?” Lexa complained.
“Don’t worry Lexa, he has a plan and it’s possible that he’ll win.” Sunny said after seeing a vision.
“Vision?” Lexa asked and Sunny nodded her head slightly.
‘I mustn’t let that sword to touch me. I need to get behind Sam and attack but he’s not giving me a chance.’ Kevin grinned as his grip on his sword tightened.
Just at that moment, Kevin saw an opportunity to attack and had immediately slide under Sam’s feet, unsheathed his sword and slew him at the back.
“Kevin Wins!” The match coordinator announced.
Sam couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He glared at the sword in Kevin’s hand.
“Isn’t that Kara’s sword?” Sam asked as he got back to where he was once seated. “How were you able to unsheathe it?”
“That’s a story for later. I don’t have much time and it’s getting late, we need to go now.” Kevin said, targeting the curfew time at school.
Sam has no other choice, he have to go at all cost, Kevin won the fight so it’s time for him to complete the end of his bargain.
Kevin and sam decided to go alone since where they were going was risky and a lot of people won’t be needed.
The plan was to teleport to the treasure room, take the Triling rings and teleport back to the black market. And if they come across any vampire or intruder on the way, slaying would be appreciated.
After everything has been ready, Sam grabbed Kevin’s hand and teleported him almost immediately. They appeared in the vampire empire in just a blink of an eye.
“We’re here.” Kevin said as he found himself in an entire new place.
The halls of the empire were wide and painted white in color, which amazed Kevin a lot. He thought that since Vampires were said to survive only by sucking blood, he thought there would be a splash of different blood stains but the walls stood white and clean as ever.
“Uh Huh, a big problem.” Sam said as he unsheathed his sword to face the Vampires that approached them.
“Now that I thought of it, this is not the treasure room. I thought you said we’re teleporting into the treasure room, why are we here?”
“I’ve never been inside the treasure room that’s why I couldn’t. This is the farthest I’ve been able to reach.” Sam replied.
“That must be why Sunny said she couldn’t teleport me here since she has never been to the vampire world before.”
‘And besides that, I can’t let her come here.’ Kevin said within himself.
The vampire guarding the treasure were six in numbers and were now making their way towards the two elves.
The vampires could see that they were elves, the lust to kill came over them at once and they immediately ran toward them.
Kevin unsheathed his sword as he started fighting the vampires who also have a sword of their own.
Sam also brought out his sword and started fighting the vampires.
Kevin saw from the side of his eyes that a few more vampires were heading for them. He had no other choice.
“Sam, come close to me.” Kevin said and sam immediately went closer to Kevin with their backs on each other.
“Shadow travel.”
Fighting these large amount of Vampires is a waste of his precious time, although he received a few Exps from slaying two vampires, but more and more vampires kept on coming. Kevin could only think of one thing.
He needs to get out of their midst, so he resulted in activating his shadow travel skill which took them into the treasure room.
The vampires suddenly saw the two elves disappear. Their scent and everything was gone.
Finally, Kevin appeared in the treasure room with sam.
Sam was surprised as he saw Kevin display his shadow magic.
“Wow, this is really surprising. I didn’t know you have a shadow magic. It is one of the magics I wished to learn but couldn’t. How are you so strong with this little body of yours?” Sam said.
“Don’t be fooled by people’s physical appearance. The power inside them may be greater than you think.” Kevin answered.
Sam sighed before glancing around the treasure room with a confusion look on his face.
“Wait, isn’t this suppose to be a treasure room?” Sam asked.
“I should be the one asking you that.” Kevin looked around where they are, it was an empty large room, dark and full of cobwebs.
“I didn’t know it wasn’t a treasure room. Of all the places in the castle, this place is the most heavily guarded area, so I only assumed it to be where the emperor’s treasures and golds are kept.” Sam said.
“Does it mean that the emperor has something more special to guard other than his golds and jewelries?” Kevin assumed.
“Then that must explain the lady statue over there. Is it a golden statue?” Sam said pointing toward a direction located in the dark area of the room.
Kevin found this strange, why would the emperor put a lot of guards to guard just a woman statue. But Kevin was not sure if it was really a statue so he decided to check it out with the system.
< Identifying >
< Name: Elsa >
< Race: Blood Fairy >
“Blood fairy?”
Just as Kevin said this, he saw the woman statue turn around as she started making her way toward the elves.
As Kevin and Sam saw the woman walk aggressively toward them, they immediately ran to the door. But at a few distance away from them, she immediately stop.
That was when Kevin noticed the chains that were used to bind her hands, it tied her to the ground so she won’t escape.
“Oh Mighty Triling, it’s a honor to meet you. Please save me, I need your help. I will grant you answers to the questions you have.” The woman pleaded with a tearful voice.
“Who are you?” Kevin asked in three words.
“I’m Elsa, a blood fairy princess. I was captured by Raj shah fifteen years ago. He entered into my body and made me kill a lot of blood fairies. My mother couldn’t kill Raj shah because he was in my body, so she ran off into the forest where no one will see her. Although Raj shah is saying that my mother is dead, I can still feel the blood connection between me and her. So I believe she’s still alive.” The woman in chains said.
< New Quest >
< Save the blood fairy princess >
< Quest Reward: New Magic >
“What about Raj shah?” Kevin wanted to help Elsa but he was curious about the person who brought her into this place.
From the stories he heard from different people, it shows that Raj shah was strong. He wouldn’t want to face such a person in this his weak state.
He knew he’s not strong enough to fight Raj shah, not after hearing what he did to those stronger than him. To Trilings stronger than him.
He intentionally asked so he would know his next course of action, maybe he should save Elsa or not.
