Chapter 154: Night of Terror(1) (2/2)
She observed them briefly and then they also noticed her and rushed towards her house. The old lady didn't stand either and rushed inside her house and then started to beat one of the utensils. Alerting the villagers.
Magnus walked out and turned towards Old Ti's house as the old lady shouted. ”There are intruders!”
”Huh?” Magnus looked downward and spotted a suspicious group. However, his sight wasn't obscured due to the night like others. On the contrary, he saw the faces of the people down there and rage started to bubble on his face. ”Sandor, you bastard! What are you trying to do?!” he roared as the lightning rumbled in the sky. However, even the lightning couldn't suppress his shout, it echoed in the entire Yefsari.
”Hehe, Magnus. Long time no see,” the man whom Magnus called Sandor grinned when he spotted him. ”I am here to meet you. Won't you welcome me?”
”Get out of here, now!” Magnus said through his gritted teeth. ”I don't have any intention to fight you. I just want to live my life peacefully. So leave!”
”You want to live your life peacefully?” said Sandor with a confused face as if he didn't understand his meaning. But then he grinned evilly and said. ”Do you think I would let you live peacefully?”
Magnus gritted his teeth, and then took a deep breath to calm himself down. ”You want to fight me? Good, I will fight you. But don't touch the villagers.”
”Oh, now, that is not good,” Sandor said. ”I have already killed almost half of the village. You should have come out earlier. Sorry, you are a little too late.”
”What!?” Magnus and every villager felt as if their mind went blank for a brief time. They could understand Sandor's meaning, but they dared not to believe it. Half of the villagers? How could they dare to believe such a thing? They were their brothers. They grew up together. They hunt together. They wrestled together. How could they believe such a horrifying outcome?
Magnus calmed down and then gestured towards Eddena who stood behind him. She nodded and rushed to check those houses from which no one came out until now. And it didn't take long before she walked out with a pale face. She looked at Magnus and said with her trembling voice. ”Bro-brother, they are dead. All of them are dead!”
Magnus stumbled back in shock. It was Salona who supported him. He looked at Sandor and the fury burned on his face that he had since long-suppressed inside his heart. For happily living with Salona he even let go the thoughts of vengeance; for her, he changed himself. For her, he became a man from the beast he was.
He found a place to live and people who accepted him as he was, but his past still came hunting after him. Destroying those beautiful people, destroying his peace. At this time he let go of the last barrier on his vampire bloodline and a bloodthirsty aura permeated the surroundings.
