Vampire God in the Apocalypse

Watching Dexter come back while wiping his lips, the soldiers stared at him with reverence, and some were looking at him in fear.

Dexter stopped beside the soldiers and then he looked back at the road which was littered by dead zombies.

"Hmm... You guys should take the dead zombies to one of the abandoned buildings. They will not allow for free movement. Passing of trucks, I mean." Dexter said and then turned around.

"Yes. Sir!" The soldiers immediately complied and went to clean the mess up.

Not just the soldiers witnessed this but also people within the camp as many of them were looking at him fearfully while some were just overjoyed to have someone as strong as Dexter protecting them.

Dexter enjoyed the free feeling of being in the sun for some reason and looked up while smiling.

He noticed that the others were still busy laughing and chatting in the eatery with other men and Beatrice was nowhere to be found.

Dexter went to their room and took out his phone from his bag along with some snacks before finding a quiet place to sit behind one of the buildings.

Switching the phone on, he saw the wallpaper he used; him hugging a beautiful girl.

He remembers that day clearly. It was her birthday that day and he surprised her with a very expensive present that day.

He chuckled as he looked up to the sky and deeply wished she was alright.

"Pretty."

Hearing a cute voice beside him Dexter turned to see a little girl in a pink gown holding a stuffed doll. She had short black hair and her brown eyes feigned innocence.

Dexter didn't mind her presence and just looked back up.

"She really is pretty." He nodded before looking at the girl. "What's your name?"

"Ah. Mom says to not talk with strangers." The girl said, kicking the ground while pouting.

"Well, my name is Dexter. Now What's your name?"

"I... it doesn't work like that." The little girl smiled at Dexter's personality.

"Also, you were amazing today. I saw how you beat those zombies till they weren't moving anymore." The girl said excitedly and Dexter chuckled.

"Why don't you sit with me. We can continue looking at more pictures." Dexter suggested and the girl excitedly sat down beside him, focusing on the screen.

Dexter looked at his battery level to see he had thirty percent of his battery left and he just went to his gallery and began swiping picture after picture.

He then began telling the little girl about his brothers in the pictures and his mom.

After one hour passed, there were no more pictures and Dexter had to conclude the scrolling.

"Wow. Your family is amazing." The little girl clapped her hands and Dexter smiled.

"So are you ready to tell me your name now?" He asked her and she put a finger on her lips, as if contemplating on the question.

"My name is Lily. I'm currently ten years old." She stood up and put her hands on her waist.

"Nice to meet you Lily. So you like my fighting moves?" He asked and Lily nodded while trying to mimic an uppercut.

"I can teach you a few self defence skills if you want." Dexter said while closing his eyes.

"Really?!" Lily shouted excitedly, disturbing Dexter.

"Yeah, sure." Dexter confirmed and he grabbed something beside him while stretching.

"Here." He handed Lily a bottle of cola and she was shocked as she held it.

She couldn't remember the last time she saw even an empty bottle of cola. But with how rare it was, she couldn't take it.

"Is it okay?" She asked.

"Yeah, I have a lot in my room so it's okay." He stretched as he wondered how long the day was.

"Wow. You're so kind." She hugged the cola dearly.

"Be a good girl to your mom okay. You can meet me here by this time tomorrow." He patted her head as he walked off.

"Don't forget, brother Dexter."

Dexter smiled as he heard her calling him brother and he gave her a thumbs up while looking back.

Dexter met up with Rina, Zain, and Leo in their room and he was shocked to see Rina talking to Leo more while smiling.

He looked sideways to see Zain with a confused expression. As Zain turned to Dexter he looked away and walked towards his own corner of the room to rest.

"Ah. Dexter is here." Rina said, noticing him at the corner of the room.

"Is something wrong?" Dexter asked.

Zain cleared his throat as he looked at Leo who still had a cold expression and he looked at Dexter.

"There has been several complaints of missing people inside the camp." Zain explained. "People go out, and then they don't return."

"Huh? Is some kind of monster taking them?" Dexter asked in confusion.

"We don't know. We'll check it out tomorrow morning." Zain said as he picked up another book.

"If it really us some monster then we just have to kill it and come back." Leo said and Dexter dismissed his coat back to his spirit and laid down to sleep.

"You're sleeping this early?" Zain raised a brow and Dexter nodded, still with his eyes closed.

...

The next morning, after breakfast they heard that Laurence was already back but they decided to go and sort out the missing people case first so they left the camp.

"It's described as a bushy area with a tree where they extract wood from." Zain said and Dexter followed them.

Leo slowed down to meet Dexter behind and he reached Dexter's side with a confused expression.

"What did you do?" He whispered as he noticed that Rina started giving him more attention.

Dexter just shrugged.

"I only shifted her focus from me to you. Nothing much."

Leo nodded and now he respected Dexter for what he did with ease. He never had the gift of communicating with people, let a lone girls.

After a while they went behind a building where a small grass field was and they all stared at tree that was cut down with wide eyes.

"W... what? Who... what could do something like this?" Rina mumbled as she stared at the bloody sight.
