Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

As William and Roxy continued their talks, Alex was walking deep in the forest.

Vesa still hadn't found anything weird, but that doesn't mean his trip is useless. He already caught a doz monsters in the forest.

In front of him now stood an elephant with two horns like those of an antelope. Alex didn't hold any weapon since the monster was ev weaker than Lily.

BAM!

Alex jumped upward and th kicked the elephant straight in the head, effectively knocking it down without any wound. He does this by sding ki directly to the creature's brain through the vibration of his kick.

Looking at the creature's eyes, Alex sighed, "Seems I failed again; its brain is turned to mush."

The monster's carcass th turned into gre particles that flowed into his body. He th contacted Petricia, 'How is the situation there?'

'King, we are still stuck in the basemt; we plan to wait a few more hours before sding Zold to check the situation outside.'

"Did anyone get hurt?"

'If you mean Lady Emily and the rest, other than exhaustion, there are no wounds. But Zargath lost his right hand in the fight.'

Alex sighed upon hearing the news, but he didn't feel too depressed; as long as he was alive, he could find a way to heal his hand.

'Oh yeah, king, Lady Emily told me she speculates the skeletons were created by a dark hunter named Derrick; he is part of an organization named Hell Gate.'

Ev though every criminal hunter is called a dark hunter, it doesn't mean they belong to the same organization.

'Why would Emily think that?'

'Lady Emily says she has had a few confrontations with this organization, so it's possible they chose this momt to take revge on her.'

The information on Suzaku's first dungeon dive was public since they planned for a press conferce after it finished. Right now, the reporters were already camping at the exit, waiting for their return.

So, it's possible for the Hell Gate organization to find a way to ter this dungeon and th ambush them.

There are many ways that allow people to ter a dungeon illegally, although most of them are risky; dark hunter organizations that don't have their own dungeon don't have other choices.

The method to do it is unknown to Alex; he has only heard some rumors about it.

'Is Derrick that strong? Didn't you say there are many skeletons coming after you?'

Alex asked since he never heard of a powerful dark hunter named Derrick. Based on the story he heard, the number of skeletons that attacked them could probably attack a city and cause some serious damage.

A Dark Hunter with that kind of strgth is usually famous ough for him to hear.

'He is not, but Lady Emily speculated he probably got a new power system that hances his ability.'

This makes Alex wonder if the power is related to the magic system he heard from Emily. Since it has already reached the association, it's only a matter of time before it's sold on the black market.

Heck, based on his understanding of the presidt, he was sure the presidt was the one who sold it to earn more profit.

He probably thought, since it will be sold anyway, why let others profit? Why not take it himself?'

'Tell the others to be careful th; I will return soon. I won't take long.'

'Alright, King, but can you give me some more detail? Lady Olivia and Emily keep bugging me about it. What are you doing?'

'Tell them I found the parasite nest near the area I told you not to go into, and now I'm busy fighting them.'

Alex thought it would only worry them more if he said he was just occupied by an experimt or something else; it was out of character for him to do that.

If he tells them the truth, it will make them want to go near the parasite area to check out if they can find a way to help him get out. So he settles with saying it's all the parasites.

They know he can fight them back, so ev though they are worried, they will still wait patitly for him to come back.

After Petricia's confirmation, Alex returned his gaze toward the forest. The area he needs to explore is still big, but based on the progress, he feels there is no hope of finding the fairy settlemt.

'It seems I have no way other than to confront the king at the auction.'

Alex th plans for the guardian, Lily and Blaire, to go rescue the hostages wh he fights the king and the two wom alone.

He feels more comfortable fighting without anyone watching. That way, he won't need to worry about anyone seeing his power as a vampire.

Alex already planned to give them to Aimu after catching them. If he has no choice, he will th go for the kill. He needs to prioritize returning back quickly.

Time passed on; William finally saw Alex's silhouette returning from the forest.

Wh he comes close, he ops the chariot door and th asks, "How is it, Alex? Did you find the fairy?"

"No, there are only monsters in the forest, but this should help us in making some distractions. I am sure the king will never think of this."

"Distraction? Ar't we planning to ambush the king?"

Alex th explained his plan to William. Hearing it, William agreed.

This is the safest and best way. He feels happy that he doesn't need to face the king directly, and helping with evacuation and rescuing those hostages is far safer.

Roxy, instead, had a differt idea, "Sir Alex, it's not that I underestimate you, but based on Sir Blair's story, the king's strgth is no joke. Are you sure you can beat them one versus three?"

"Don't worry, ev if the other two are stronger than the king, I have my own way to fight against them," Alex said. While in his mind, he thought, 'Who says it's one versus three?'

The chariot th started flying again, making its way back to Blair's mansion.
