Chapter 28: Pain

" so you came all the way here to just tell me that? No I don't think so! Tell me why you're here before I decide to sink my teeth in that glass skin of yours!" Zik's nails grew and his teeth became sharper but he didn't fully transform. He still maintained his human form but was still impressive. Oh I see why he didn't transform into a wolf, he still has to drive and it'd be weird to do it while being naked. I'm glad he still thinks he can drive us out of here meaning he is confident that things will be okay. I even smiled a little while thinking about it. My chest swelled with positivity.

" Give us the magic girl and we'll leave peacefully"

"...!"

"...!?"

What did he just say?

"You're coming with us" I jumped when I heard the vampire who was previously standing in front of us whisper behind me. The next thing I knew he forcefully held both my arms behind me and I heard Zik grunt as the other four ganged up on him. Zik was keeping up with their speed and fighting like a professional unlike how he only bites and uses claws when he is in his werewolf form. Yet it didn't change that there were four of them and they are showing the same level of skill he has when it comes to fighting.

I can't believe it! Magic girl? Oh well yes I forgive them for that because they don't know what I am but still! No focus Era this guy is planning to kidnap me while the other four keep Zik busy and I can't let that happen. A small wind blade formed and I controlled it to slash the Vampire's arm and of course I knew that he'd see this coming since he is fast but the purpose of the wind blade was to free myself from him. He was quick to step back and the blade slash nothing but thin air but I'm free so time to show this bloodsucker what I'm made of.

I sent three more arm sized wind blades towards his way and thank God that this wasn't a tar road. I knew he'd be able to dodge them and although my body could never move or keep up with his speed my eyes still can. Right before he dodged the last wind blade I had already begun to control the earth to soften enough for his feet to sink. I quickly strengthened it before he was able to escape making the last wind blade slash his shoulder. The cut wasn't deep which surprised me, is his skin that strong. It got worse when he easily freed his feet by simply taking a step forward which shouldn't have been possible because I did this trick so that he wouldn't be able to take a step closer to me. " Hahahaha did you really think this was going to stop me princess?" Ugh you don't have to be arrogant about it.

He was quick to close the gap but got blown back by a strong gust of wind. Thank God I thought of doing that right before he moved because if it was when or after he moved it would've been a waste of time. Their speed is very terrifying.

" Huh what's wrong why aren't you laughing" I taunted him while enjoying his face that had an expression of disbelief, with just a thought four thick walls rose from the earth and trapped him to be unable to move forward. The only way he can get out is if he jumped out and I wasn't going to let him. Wind blades rained down on him non stop and even though I cannot see him because of the walls I could feel where he was standing by connecting with the earth and so I made seven earth spikes pierce his legs. The wind blades rained down non stop for the next thirty seconds. Although I felt my vision blur afterwards I turned my hands into fists and clenched them so hard that my nails dug into my hands. I wasn't done yet and after I'm done I'm not going to humiliate myself by fainting like a spoiled princess. I'm gonna make this guy wish he never thought of kidnapping me.

There was a huge rock near the road and though it was very hard I made it rise from the ground. With gritted teeth of course. Just when I was directing it above the four walls planning to drop it on the vampire I saw something red quickly jump out of the four walls and the next I felt was the air getting knocked out of me. The red thing was the vampire and he was covered in his own blood. His body that had cuts all over his body would've been satisfying if not for the fist that connected with my stomach. My posture was hunched because of his terrifying punch that made me drop the huge boulder I was going to crush him with.

A slap that made me crush on the ground followed, everything started ringing as the slap connected very well with my ear. It took a while for the pain to come but when it did I couldn't even grunt or moan in pain as it felt like my jaw was broken. I looked at him and he was saying something with his bloody face that was decorated with cuts that were bleeding but I couldn't hear anything. He started kicking my stomach and with how strong he was I'm sure some of my ribs were broken, the third kick made everything go blank...

Mnh? But what is this that I'm feeling, i feel as though I've not just been shown how weak my body is. The high level pain I felt just now disappeared as though it was never there. In fact I felt so much better than I was before but why?

Well I guess we'll have to find out in the next chapter...
