The Fallen Vampire

Chapter 59: Funny Seeing You Again

Keran wiped her mouth before rushing towards the front door and stepping outside, leaving the three girls at the table in utter confusion.

"Where is she going?? Is everything okay?" Lucia asked aloud.

Indra took it upon himself to stand up at that very moment and he started to follow in the footsteps of his former betrothed.

"Girls, stay here for now. We'll return shortly."

"You're going too?" Lucia asked.

"Mhm."

Right before the girls' eyes, Indra's clothes started to change.

In a much simpler and more comfortable outfit, Indra wore a pair of deep black pants that were tied around his waist with a dark red cloth.

On his upper body he wore a simple black half shirt with long sleeves and red lines across his neck, biceps, and wrists.

"Oooh..!"

"Enyo! He's leaving, focus!"

"Ah, I'm sorry. It's just that my husband's butt looks so good that I can hardly stand it!"

"O-Oh...I guess I understand then."

"Hey! Keep your eyes to yourself!"

"Eep!! I'm sorry!!"

A small smile could be seen on Indra's lips as he stepped out into the night; his body soon disappearing as leapt into the trees and left the girls behind.

With Enyo left behind to protect them, he was fairly confident that the girls would be safe while he and Keran were out.

At a speed that was nothing short of frightening and without making a single sound, Indra's feet carried him from branch to branch as he followed the scent of blood.

Strangely enough, the closer he got, the more he began to feel like he'd smelled this scent before.

He couldn't exactly place it, but upon reaching the source he realized exactly why it felt familiar.

Dropping out of the trees, he found Keran in a clearing within the forest, holding a woman who looked like she was on the verge of death.

Her long purple hair was matted with dark blood, and the vibrant yukata she'd been wearing had been cut to shreds, exposing her well defined yet sinful body underneath.

There appeared to be no signs of a struggle, only four separate sword wounds jammed into her back from behind.

Her stomach in particular was heavily scarred, and if it looked like all of her organs would come out of her gut if she so much as coughed.

"Who... would do something like this?"

Keran's voice was like a hushed whisper as she held the strange woman in her arms.

Even though she did not know her, that hardly mattered in the slightest.

Keran was an empathetic person by nature, and that especially applied to members of the fallen races.

To see one of her own like this was utterly heartbreaking for her.

She rummaged inside of her pockets as if she were hoping to find some sort of way to prolong this woman's life.

However, she had no healing pills and nothing to help aid in alleviating her body's condition.

"B-Beloved, you still have a few pills on you, right?? Please give me as many as you can spare!"

Indra stared at the fallen woman who he was going to kill only a few hours ago.

If it was up to him, he may have let this woman die out here without even bating an eye.

But because Keran was looking at him with eyes as large as the moon above, he pulled out four pills and tossed them to her before he knew what he was doing.

Keran caught the two pills and opened Aveena's mouth, sticking two of them on each side of her jaw before closing her lips and allowing them to dissolve.

While Keran administered first aid, Indra surveyed the area to learn more about the assailants.

Taking a look at the ground, he found multiple footprints that seemed to belong to a group of men due to their larger size.

The footprints seemed to come from the opposite direction in the forest, back towards the streets of Ferran.

'An escort of some kind?'

Judging by the close proximity Aveena seemed to share with her attackers, there is no way she didn't know they were following her.

And judging by the fact that she hadn't managed to put up a fight, she'd definitely been caught off guard by these forces and left to die.

But there was another problem that Indra had noticed.

At a certain point the tracks just stopped.

He checked the trees for any signs of mud from the ground to see if they had leapt away as he had done, but there was no such thing.

It was as if they'd just flown away after trying to kill her.

'Overlord realm cultivators...' he realized.

"Beloved!"

The vampire turned around to find Keran still holding Aveena, but still looking rather worried.

"S-She's stopped loosing blood but her wounds aren't healing, we need to take her home and treat her properly!"

"...Alright." Indra said with a nod.

He came beside Keran and lifted Aveena into his arms gently.

Sprouting a pair of dark leathery wings, he carried them both back to Lucia's lakehouse a mile and a half away.

- 1 Hour Later

Luckily, Lucia had some medical supplies at home as well and Enyo had a fair bit of knowledge in this particular area.

She applied some medicine to the wounds to keep them from worsening and even did her best to stitch her up.

In the end, Aveena lie on the couch with her face towards the ceiling, her torso heavily bandaged and the blood washed out of her hair.

"I don't know if I'll ever get used to seeing so much blood in this world." Vermeil muttered.

"You might want to try, else you'll only be in for a harder time in the future." Keran said gently.

"Yea... I'll do that." She agreed.

She didn't know how the hell such a thing was going to be possible, but she knew that she had to put her best foot forward somehow.

Indra walked in between Lucia and Enyo and kneeled down before he took Aleena's hand and started to pat her down.

"Honey... What are you doing?" Enyo asked with a smile that was not a smile.

Indra smirked and said nothing in the hopes that he would send his loving wife into a jealous rage that would cause her to be more 'assertive' when they went to bed tonight.

But when he didn't find what he was looking for, a frown formed on his handsome face, and Lucia immediately knew what was wrong.

"She... doesn't have it, does she?"

"No." Indra replied.
