Protagonist?Antagonist? I Reject Both

Chapter 123 123:Deadly Crisis[V]

Herman stared at Leon back and then at the woman who just sat silently on the floor taking large gulps of air.

"Do you remember me Seraphina?"

"What about you atta boy?"Seraphina muttered weakly, raising her face that was covered with disheveled air.

"Hahahahah!So that's how it is. You are surely a hateful character. If it was my young days, I would have already flooded your ears with a river of curses but I just don't feel like it. After going through a lot, I understand that what you did was the right thing for your species," Herman paused a bit as he reminisced, and with a jolt, he gripped the rods tightly.

His eyes shone with a thick murderous intent that locked on Seraphina, suffocating her to death slowly.

"You might have forgotten but I will never forget that day when we worked together to take on Xylothians and avert the crisis that loomed over both humans and Vampires. I still remember how you whispered praises of naivety to me daily and me being a horny teenage idiot fell into your grasp..."Herman's voice became heavier and he burned furiously with hatred.

"And I remember how you stabbed me and my team in the back causing great damage."Herman then slid his finger across the rod with a glint but he stopped.

He wanted to kill and tear this woman apart but the tiny bit of rationality in him forbade him from doing so.

"Oh! So, you are one of those naive guys I dumped out there."Seraphina laughed hysterically.

Ignoring that Herman stared at the rod.

"This prison, I have specially made for King-level vampires that can trap you by emitting radiation similar to the raw solar waves. However, I wish I could kill, and dig that poisonous tongue of yours and whip you with that."

"Then why don't you?"She asked with a mischievous smile.

Herman gripped the rods tightly and then sighed"I know you are acting willy because you know we can't kill you and handle the repercussions but believe me one day someone will….someone surely will….."Herman then snapped his head towards the man.

....

Leon had hardly taken a few steps when a sudden jolt of shock surged through him as he walked, and an unexpected sharp object erupted from the ground at the place he was about to step in.

No, it just appeared before him with a speed invisible to his naked eye.

Leon's heart skipped a beat, the adrenaline coursing through his veins, and his senses heightened as he managed to jump back.

The initial shock gave way to a mix of fear and curiosity, a rapid evaluation of the situation unfolding beneath my feet. Leon looked at the object with a serious look and then at his crotch.

'I don't know where this came from but it was just close to ending my bloodline.'

Leon wiped the beads of sweat and stared at the thing

It was a one-edged sword with some sort of manual on it.

"Don't hesitate. Think of this as a gift from me."

Leon heard an old stable voice in his ears and looked back at the old man smiling at him.

[Your swordsmanship is totally garbage. Even my 7-year-old grandchildren know to swing a sword more properly than you.]

A feeling akin to someone stabbing his heart mercilessly coursed through his body. He can even hear someone screaming ×2 emotional damage into his ears.

Then before his eyes, Herman's figure hovered into the sky. The prison rose into the sky with Seraphina screaming inside and giving him a weird look.

"I hope you grow well. Follow the instructions in the manual well. It won't make you a master swordsman but it is enough to correct your basics."

Then with a blur, the two figures disappeared before his eyes. Taking another glance, Leon put down the sword and checked on Feng Ruoxi.

The blood loss was quite severe but she was still alive and kicking.

Leon picked her into the embrace staring at her face.

"I hope she doesn't kill me for touching her."

SWOOSH!

........

Sun rays scattered on the leftover debris of the so-called temporary military base. By some miracle, a few managed to stay alive by hiding in the basement and secret hideout but they were trapped as the buildings were dismantled upon them.

A rescue team consisting of several medics and agents appeared on time to treat them.

Feng Ruoxi, who had her stomach stitched by a female doctor, looked around with soulless eyes. She woke up a few moments ago due to the pain of the doctor operating on her.

Due to her special physique and Phoenix Martial Spirit, poison and anesthesia won't have much effect on her.

"Are you from the backup team," Feng Ruoxi asked the female doctor who shook her head.

"No, we aren't the backup team. We are the paramedics. We got the emergency call for help from one of the members."

"Who?"

"Umm...His name was something like Noah...No, it's Mr.Noel."

Feng Ruoxi's brows furrowed in shock and her eyes darted across the figure that was sitting on a pile of rubble with a dead sullen atmosphere.

A gloomy dark aura seemed to emerge from him that was warding off the other from approaching here.

Rumors were already spread seeing the defiled corpse of the Vampire, like how this man butchered the Vampire till his death gleefully, enjoying every bit of screams of pain that the Vampire spat till his death.

A brutal, emotionless, cold demon that hunts as long as he orders to do so.

The agents who survived shivered witnessing the man's dead expression.

"It seems he is angry because the Vampire didn't last long."

An agent muttered, making everyone frown.

"What did you mean by that?"

"I mean he might have wanted to enjoy more but the Vampire died early."

"How did you know?"Another asked curiously, taking a peek at Leon.

"Just look at his face carefully. Doesn't it look like the face of a man who is on the verge of having a climax that was intercepted in between?"

"He seems to enjoy himself in the process of torture but today he wasn't able to enjoy as his sadigasm was stopped."

"Now what the hell is sadigasm?"

"It's sadistic orgasm."

Meanwhile Leon, unaware of rumors going around, just keeps on sitting in disbelief due to the shock of being unable to extract Goro soul because it seems if you kill and scatter the body, the soul would also disperse.
