Chapter 3: Vampire King

Vampire King

Robin's POV

I stopped in front of the castle, it was built above the hill and the ride here was not that pleasant.

That vampire is a count? A vampire King?
That explains his presence. He was powerful enough to take me down but he didn't.

I untied my long hair and let it drape to my
body. "Hello," I bowed my head when I saw vampires guarding the gate.

They got alerted when they saw me, nauna silang umatake so I had no choice.

I even yawned to annoy them. "Come at once, I'm sleepy."

I smirked at a vampire, my index finger was at his forehead.

His blood splattered everywhere when water came out of my fingers, breaking his skull.
The pressure of my power was enough to wipe them out.

"I'm sorry," I said to my dress before I cut it shorter.

Sagabal. I can't kick properly with it.

I stopped a vampire's blade using my bare hands, how I did it, I don't know. But I guess years of training with my monster siblings taught me a lot.

"Careful with it, my brothers don't like seeing me with wounds," I said angrily.

I held his blade and forcefully took it from him, now it's in my hands. Pinaikot-ikot ko ito sa kamay ko.

Another vampire tried to attack me but I was quick to slice his neck with the sword I got from his fellow vampire.

I covered my nose when his body burned to ashes when his head fell to the ground.
Five more.

The sword fell to the ground when I let go of it, I watched as the remaining vampires circled around me.

"Bye," I bid farewell when all five of them got sucked off my portal.

I sighed in contentment and entered the dark castle.

Bats flew everywhere, good thing I'm not scared of them.

Waters from my body searched for the castle and it led me to where the maidens are. I expected them to be helpless but they all looked at me in shock.

"I came to get you," I told them.

"Ngunit... masaya kaming masilayan ang hari nila," one answered.

I turned to her with a serious face. "I can leave you here if you want but the Empress won't allow it."

Her face paled because of guilt.

Yes, the vampires caused us to lose a lot during the war. How dare she like the presence of a Vampire King?

"Paumanhin, Mahal na Prinsesa," she genuinely said.

I didn't answer and just got them inside my portal that would direct them to the palace.

I have to get my poor horse left outside before I leave.

The palace was made of stone, it was so dark in here and only torches gave light to it. But the light was not enough to brighten the
surroundings.

I went out of the gates and stopped when I saw the count from earlier.

"Boss, ubos ang mga bantay, grabi talaga ang babaeng to."

"You took the maidens," he looked at me.

I didn't answer him. I feel like I talked a lot today, I can't talk anymore. I'm tired.
"I'll let you leave, Princess."
