Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge

[ Zhou Ancestral Mansion… ]

When the elite werewolves chased after Kira, Cedric stayed behind as he entered the mansion. He wanted to see Marceline. For some unknown reason, he started to feel obsessed with her.

He was drawn to her and he couldn't get her off his mind. The more he couldn't claim her the more he wanted to own her.

Cedric roamed his eyes around the house, using his super sense to track Marceline's location but he failed to find her.

Cedric furrowed his brows. "Where is she? Did he hide her? But where?"

He checked the rooms upstairs, one by one. There was no sign of Marceline. "I need to find her. I have to get her… I can't allow her to escape from me this time."

When he didn't see her on the second floor, Cedric went downstairs to continue looking for her. As he walked around the house, Cedric noticed the secret door that would lead him to the underground basement.

When he was about to touch the door, his hands were electrocuted. There was a magnetic force stopping him from going further.

"Is it a boundary spell or a barrier?" Cedric pondered to himself.

He didn't know whether Marceline was there or not. He tried to check it again but he couldn't enter.

'Is this a special place for the gatekeeper that's why I can't pass through?' Cedric was aware that this house was the previous home of the gatekeepers from the Zhou Family.

He was still searching for Marceline when he heard the loud howling sound of the werewolves. It was a signal to other werewolves, telling their fellows that they finally cornered the vampire they were chasing after.

Cedric felt conflicted. He wanted to find Marceline but at the same time, he was also dying to see Kira suffer from the hands of the elite werewolves. He had to be there and witness everything.

In the end, Cedric chose to witness how the elite werewolf warriors catch Kira. He was already thinking about so many ways to torture and torment Kira with his own hands.

Cedric immediately shifted into his wolf form, running in the direction of the Northleaf Timberland Forest at a full speed.

Meanwhile, in the middle of the forest, Kira already transformed back to his human form. The werewolves were able to locate him in an instant as they could smell his vampire scent. Their sense of smell during a full moon was ten times stronger than their normal state.

Kira was like a prey who was about to get devoured by these feral beasts. Werewolves had the advantage here as they were hunting him together as one pack.

Growl! Growl!

The werewolves were snarling at Kira as they surrounded him in every direction, not allowing him to escape. Ten werewolves were now facing him. They already gave their comrades a signal about their current location.

It's just a matter of time and all the werewolves would arrive in that area to subdue and capture Kira, Dead or Alive– it didn't matter!

Fortunately, he was already done stalling for time as the wound on his left leg that was bitten by one werewolf a while ago was now completely healed.

He could fight them now without worrying about his injured leg. This won't become a hassle to him anymore and he could fight the werewolves comfortably.

"Come on!" Kira moved his forefinger provokingly in a back and forth movement as he invited them to launch an attack.

He also wanted to test his current strength. Could he still beat them all with his current condition? He was assessing whether his ability and power were weakened after being put in deep slumber for one thousand years.

The werewolves who were dying to cut his head off and tear his body apart charged forward, attacking him in different directions simultaneously.

They were like mad dogs who were eager to bite someone. For them, he was just a special prey who was about to meet his end. They were confident that Kira couldn't match up the strength of twenty-five elite wolves during this full moon.

With their fast movements and loud noises, the other creatures living in that forest were disturbed. They were in a state of panic after hearing the howling and growling of the wolves.

The small land animals and birds immediately looked for hiding places away from those werewolves. They were afraid that they would get eaten if they stayed at their previous spots. The survival instincts of these animals were triggered and activated as they detected the dangers.

The peaceful and silent forest suddenly became the battleground of the Vampire King and the elite werewolf warriors of White Claw Pack.

Four werewolves jumped and pounced on Kira, targeting the different parts of his body. Their goal was to bite him, poisoning him to immobilize him on the spot.

Kira stepped back, moving from side to side, from left to right just to avoid getting bitten by their sharp teeth and getting scratched by their sharp claws.

The poison of the werewolf's bite would be more harmful and troublesome at this moment. The full moon was boosting the werewolf's powers and ability. He couldn't afford to get bitten by them.

Seeing the fast approaching werewolves, Kira raised his two hands, his palms facing the enemies and his scarlets staring at them intently. He was using his Psychokinesis to control their speed and slow them down for him to avoid their attacks.

Though werewolves moved faster at this night, under his psychokinesis, Kira could see and anticipate their next moves, allowing Kira to counter and dodge their strong offenses and strikes.

Kira kept on running around in circles, using the trees as his shield. He jumped from one tree branch to another. He couldn't attack them head-on. He had to admit that these werewolves were very tough, aggressive, and tenacious.

If they were just hunting ordinary vampires or vampire warriors of average level, for certain, those vampires won't be able to withstand their attack and they would die in an instant. They were no match to these feral beasts of the moon!

'Damn! This is unending. They keep coming. More enemies have caught on to me!' Kira cursed inwardly.

He tried using mind control but it was difficult to use them all at once against these twenty-five werewolves! His power also had a limit.

He was minimizing the use of his hypnotic skills and mind control ability as he was afraid that he might collapse in the middle of the fight. The last time he used his mind power to control the werewolves, he strained himself and fainted in front of Marceline.

Thud!

Bam!

Smash!

Kira was kicking and throwing those werewolves who kept on coming in his direction. The snapping sound of tree branches and trunks could be heard as the forest trees were destroyed and cut down by the impact of werewolves hitting the trees.

But no matter how powerful Kira was, he still felt exhausted running around and fighting them. The werewolves were very tenacious, going back to their feet to launch another attack after falling off on the ground.

It seemed like they couldn't feel the pain Kira inflicted on them as if they didn't receive any injury at all. This was the power bestowed to the werewolves by the full moon!

'This feels like an unending battle. They seem similar to zombies. They don't feel any pain at all.' Kira thought to himself. He was now wrestling with two to four werewolves on the ground.

Two werewolves caught his left leg and right arms, biting him hard. Their sharp teeth buried deeply on his flesh. He bled almost immediately.

'Damn! If this continues… I might faint and drain all my energy while I'm still fighting them. Think Kira… think of a better way to counter them and defeat all of them!' He muttered, encouraging and urging his own self.

Kira moved from one tree to another, still thinking. Running paws were following him wherever he went. He could no longer hide from them.

After killing five out of twenty, the werewolves became more aggressive, trying to avenge their fallen comrades. Kira also felt the need to consume blood. His wound and injury along with the poison inside his system were making him crave for blood. He needed it right now!

But consuming his enemy's blood wasn't a good idea as they could make their blood poisonous to Kira if they wanted to.

'I have no choice but to kill them one by one. It might take a long time but I can still manage.'

This time Kira had stopped running as he decided to fight them head-on. Running around would just drain his energy further so why not fight them head-on to finish this as quickly as possible.

But unknown to Kira, Cedric had prepared a secret weapon tonight against Kira. He already caught up with the team, reaching Kira's current spot.

When Kira decided to fight them, Cedric sneakily prepared his weapon to use against Kira. The five werewolves attacked Kira all at once, leaping forward.

Seeing Kira was busy defending himself and attacking those five werewolves, Cedric took this opportunity to use the ultraviolet lights, blinding Kira's eyes in an instant.

This was something Kira had never anticipated. He was caught off guard when Cedric threw something in the air. Upon sensing Kira's aura, the white orb Cedric had thrown suddenly illuminated, releasing ultraviolet lights!

'Arrgh! My eyes!' Kira stepped back, covering his eyes using both hands.

Kira was distracted for a moment, leaving a great chance for his enemies to attack him defenselessly.

Another batch of werewolves sprinted in his direction, swinging their sharp claws and aiming their sharp teeth at his shoulders and neck.

But even before they could touch Kira, a giant white wolf jumped into the middle, shielding Kira against those attackers!

GROWL!
