Chapter 686: Telling the Vampires About the Human Base
“You’re not going to get close to them?” Randy asked me as we’re following the five guys who were coming out from the base.
“If I do it now, they will find me quickly. There’s a time and place for me to do it. And right now, when they are wary of monsters, is not a good time. I could do it easily before because I know they were letting their guards down knowing that the wolves no longer chase after them. But now it’s hard.”
I looked at the five men who are getting close to the river. They will reach there soon and once they do, it will be hard for anyone from the base to find them.
Even if someone will be sent to look after those five, they will just think that they died because of monsters and their body were dumped to the river where the torrent will carry them to the sea.
Though we’re here to capture them. Not to kill them.
The five men are crossing the river right now. The earth mage easily built a bridge to cross it. Is there no wind mage among them?
They are arguing about something, but it’s too far for me to hear.

I look around the area with my Divine Vision before we attack them. I can’t see the wall anymore. And there’s no human nearby. If we make our move now, no one will notice.
There are no humans, but there are monsters. Vampires. The one I talked to before was there as well.
Looking at the situation, the vampires are trying to find the humans who captured their friends and fight them. Because I have told him that if they are attacked, they can fight back and kill them.
Not because those people are enemies. But because I believe that my friends whom I bring to this world are strong enough to defeat them. So if they started fighting, the vampires will lose.

“They will face the vampires soon. Should we move and capture those men, or should we wait and see how it goes?” I asked Randy.
“Will the vampires kill them? Randy asked.
“They will probably beat those men half to death so they can drink their blood,” I answered.
“Then we’ll just wait. We can just wait for another group to leave. Or better yet, we can just go down there and told the vampires that there’s a large group of humans in that base. And they will all attack them. Though that’s only if you’re fine with it,” Randy suggested his idea.
“Hmm... Arin said that she has no affection toward them anymore. Kind of cruel I guess, but I guess that’s what the vampires really are,” I said.
Arin said that it’s fine if we just kill them. Arin has enslaved those male vampires since a long time ago and she has gotten tired of them. She even said that if possible, she won’t use charm magic ever again after hearing Sonia’s experience. That’s why she’s living happily without ever charming anyone.
Though I still asked her once in a while to use charm magic on me. To see if I can block charm magic with Aura and my will.
The first few times we tried it, I fell head over heel for her. Though thanks to my girlfriends helping me, I snapped out of it quickly. It involves a little bit of violence. Or maybe a lot since I’m strong.
But after trying it many times, especially now that I’m an Aura Master, even after using her very best to charm me, she failed to do it.
This could be a good training in case the cult managed to tame succubus and use them to charm men. Though I don’t know if a full succubus’ charm magic will be better than a half-succubus like Arin or not.
I tried it after that time we rescued Graham’s sister. Because I’m afraid that monsters with special ability that we don’t know of will come and I need to fight them.
But I have something worse than charm magic. I can use air magic to create lust gas that will make everyone who inhale it will fall into lust and can’t contain their desire. That’s much worse than charm magic. Though the effect is shorter than charm magic.
Anyway, those vampires are still under Arin’s influence. I don’t think they can be cured anymore.
And Arin has forsaken them. They can just die. Though they may be useful. Maybe letting them attack that base is a good idea.
“Then let them attack the base. We’ll exchange the information of the base with those humans. And I’ll try to mark the vampires with Blobbies so I can have a target for portal in that base. Though that’s only if they didn’t notice it. I hope they don’t,” I said.
“Good. Oh, they attacked first.”
Randy commented about the earth mage who started attacking the vampires right as soon as they saw the vampires. And the vampires are all smiling knowing that those humans is allowed to be killed.
The mages are confident that they can defeat the vampires. And as they are busy with the vampires, I have a chance to get closer to them.
“Wait! Why are they so strong?!”
“They weren’t this strong before. What happened?!”
“Fuck! I thought that they will be easy targets again today! But how did we end up losing?!”
The vampires who no longer need to hold their power back, easily destroy the shield that those mages created. The vampires used the blood they consumed freely.
One by one, those mages were defeated. Even those who tried to escape were captured. But as I expected, none of them died. The vampires want to suck their blood dry.
I let them drink a bit of their blood before I leave my hiding spot and approach the vampires. And of course the vampires think of me as enemy right away.
“Hey, I’m not an enemy. I’m here to tell you that Arin needs me to bring these men for questioning,” I said. And again, I just used Arin’s name however I want.
“Really? Is that what Lady Arin wants?” one vampire asked. He’s the one that I captured before.
“Yeah. In exchange, how about I tell you where these guys came from? There are many other humans there. Some of them are even stronger than these five you just fought. I know that for vampires like you, the stronger the enemy, the more delicious their blood tastes. You can drink as much as you want there,” I said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Really? There are more delicious blood than theirs?”
“Yeah. Though there are too many of them. How about you go back to the castle and tell everyone to prepare raiding that place? Even if you bring everyone with you, I’m sure that there won’t be any lack of blood for you to drink.”
I feel like I can make a living as a scammer. Well, I think I have done it many times. So it’s natural for me to think that way. But I’ll prefer to be a clown than a scammer.
...Isn’t a performer doing some sleight-of-hand tricks can be considered as scamming the audience? Then a clown and a scammer is the same.
The vampires looked at each others and nodded. Seems like agreement has been made.
“Then I’ll give you these guys. It’s a big place, right? We will go there later.”
Nice. It’s working. Now there will be a little problem in that base if there’s a master level mage there. Which I think to be highly possible.
“Good. Though I think you need to restore the blood that was spent from the fight. I’ll give you some bloodbags for you and the other vampires to drink,” I said.
“Huh? You’re going to give us blood, while you asked us to raid the place filled with humans? That’s suspicious...”
Oh, shit! I said too much!.
“Don’t you think that the more there is blood to drink, the better it is for you guys? I can only give you bloodbags once in a while. But you can go to that base whenever you want and drink more blood. Though I suggest you to bring everyone with you since they might be stronger than expected,” I said.
“Hah! I don’t think we will lose if we use our all. The previous group who were taken by them was only because we think they were with you since they were not fighting to kill. But now that we know, we won’t be holding back anymore. Everyone, let’s inform the others!”
They all left so quickly. They can’t wait anymore to have a fest of blood. Though that’s only if they survive.
“Alright, Randy, what will you do?” I asked Randy about his next plan.
“I’ll go with them. You’re going to bring them to him, right? Let’s go.”
“Okay. I’ll leave the interrogation to you and Albert. I’ll tell Arin about the fate of the vampires.”
Even if Arin said that she’s fine if we kill them all, I will still tell her about this. Though I don’t think she will have a change of mind.
