You Will Only Be Mine-Chapter 321: Rubbish
THUD
"Hmmm?"
CRASH
I jumped back as two sets of hands plunged into the breaking it in a swift strike. Landing on my feet, I looked up to look at my attackers to find two pests right before me. They are probably just novices but they are stronger than a novice should be. Something is going on.
Well, that doesn’t matter to me.
Without any warning, they both jumped at me and I rushed at them. I put my stake aside and punched one of them in the gut throwing them out through the window. From the looks of it, it was already night. Looks like the exertion from the day before made me more tired than usual. The other one appeared behind me, grabbed my hand, and started crushing it.
"You’re stronger than a normal novice," I said but looking at the eyes of the pest, I saw nothing but pure animalistic hunger for blood. Even for a vampire, this was a bit much. "What did you do?"
Before I got to know the answers to my question, it pulled my hand and in a swift motion tore it off throwing me at the wall. I grit my teeth due to the pain but I had no time to think about anything since I was pounced at again by the animal. Moving to the side, I was able to dodge its blade-like nails and kicked the back of its skull. The sound of bones breaking filled the room and it fell down to its feet. Though not dead, it was enough to make it unconscious.
RAWR
The guttural sound put the entire neighborhood on alert as if it weren’t for the loud sounds these creatures were already making. I let out a sigh and my arm grew back to its original shape. It pounced at me and I stared at it directly in the eyes.
"HALT."
A surge of headache-like pain made me feel a little dizzy but I was able to get back on my feet. So, this is the issue with this ability. What an inconvenience.
I grabbed the two animals and peeked out the window only to see many people gathered in front of the building trying to see who or what made the sound. I clicked my tongue and kicked the wall from behind making another loud sound and quickly jumped out of the building. Some people rushed into the building but I was already out of their sight. I decided to go towards the warehouse areas of the city and made a run for it. Jumping from one building to another, I ran as fast as I could.
Looking down at the two animals in each of my arms, I spat in disgust. Even for novices, who are to resemble human behavior and control over their powers and desires, this makes no sense. Even in rage, they were more like a critter given the power close to a noble which is not how vampires are supposed to evolve. With time, one learns and understands how to both accept and control one’s powers, only then can one get stronger.
"But, their faces, hmmm, I think I will ask them when they wake up," I said making my way to the warehouses. I was still on high alert because I could still be pursued by more VEO members or one of the pests themselves. These two weren’t that stealthy with their assassination. "But still, why come after me directly?"
Finally reaching the destination, I found an empty one and entered it. It was pitch black here and I sensed there was not supposed to be anyone here. They threw them both on the ground. Not having the patience to wait for them to wake up, I kicked them in the stomach knocking the air out of them.
"Cough, cough, where am I?" one of them said and laid its eyes on me and stared glaring at me. I looked at it with disgust and kicked it right in the face.
"Who do you think you are, to look at me with those eyes?" I said and spat on its face. It tried to get up to attack me and the other one was still under the ability.
"SIT AND ANSWER MY QUESTIONS TRUTHFULLY."

"Ugh…" I said holding my head as the surging pain emerged again. Using this multiple times will take a huge toll on me. Getting my thoughts together I looked at the two of them and they both sat right before me respectfully. "Who sent you here?"
"No one, we came at our own volition," one of them answered.
"And why?" I asked raising my eyebrow.
"You killed our friends," the other one said. Friends?
I got closer to them and looked at their faces properly. My eyes widened realizing who they were. These two were the ones who were responsible for cleaning off the blood that I bled in that cage. Knowing this, my hand started to scratch wanting to rip both of their heads again. I still remember, the disgusted look they gave me every time they were asked to come and clean after that monster.
In their eyes, I was nothing but an abomination.
"These friends you speak of…are they working under Dominic?" I asked and they both nodded. "How did you get this strong?"
"Um…" even if I ordered them to speak the truth, I could see the fear and hesitation on their faces. I don’t have time for this bullshit.
I grabbed my stake and drove it through its heart making sure the other one saw it well. Even if I used my ability, outside of the order I gave them, they can very well feel emotions or even try to resist the order but their body will not let them. Watching them struggle is an amusing sight which I am guilty of enjoying.
Killing the pest, I glared at the other one and I could see the terrified look on his face. He started to struggle and get away from me but too bad for him, I am not some run-of-the-mill vampire.
"Now that you know what will happen to you if you don’t reply instantly, I will ask again, how did you get this strong?"
"D-drug! It was a drug!" it exclaimed, sweat dropping from its forehead, its body trembling as I kept glaring at it letting my bloodlust release. Given it is one of those pests, it is quite easy for it to understand the clear difference between us.
"And who gave you this?" I asked.
"F-Fa-Father, it was Father..." it said and the name made my blood boil along with making my feet tremble. That monster…
"How did you know I was there?" I asked and it showed a little hesitation but I glared again making it talk.
"H-he has informants, all around Tokyo, they all meet daily in Shinjuku to give intel about people Father told them to know about," it said and I walked close to it and kneeled. I placed my hand on his face and pulled it aside before biting its neck. "ARGH!!!"
It yelled in pain but as I tasted the blood, I quickly let go of it and spat everything out. I felt a little dizzy all of a sudden and my mind started getting blank but I quickly took my finger and put it down my throat making me vomit everything out forcefully.
Coughing and wiping my mouth I looked at it in anger and grabbed my stake. "No, no, no, no! Spare me please!"
Not giving any heed to its pleading, I stuck my stake through its heart and the pest fell. I leaned against the wall next to me and sat down taking a deep breath. Looking back, I looked back at their body and saw them vanishing into nothingness. Filthy pests, even on death, no remains of them will be found after. Is this the life you want to live?
I took a deep breath and slapped my face bringing me back to my senses. Whatever they were given by that monster must be why they felt so different, given how it was in their blood still may mean it is injectable.
"Though it didn’t last for too long," I said and looked at them again, or the spot where the two were but found nothing. I was lucky this time for using my ability, the roar the other one gave out, I would have to kill it before I got anything out of it but that would also seem to be difficult. Something about her body felt different.
"Well, time to head to Shinjuku," I muttered and got on my feet leaving the warehouse. I stumbled a little holding my head in pain as the pulsating feeling was much stronger now. I clicked my tongue and decided to stay there a little longer. Holding my face in my hands I started to rub my forehead, mom would do this whenever I had a headache.
"Maybe not use this ability too often," I said and thought back about my engagement with the VEO hunters this morning. Even dead, that promise I gave you is stopping me from hurting humans.
"It’s unfair…" I muttered and sat in a fetal position on the ground. "Really unfair…if anyone were to kill you, it should have been me. You were mine…"
