367 Lets All Keep An Eye (1/2)

To be honest, vampires begging for mercy was not unfathomable for most people.

According to human beings' stereotype of vampires, vampires were proud and evil, and they would mock whoever captured them in an irritating tone even when they were beat.

They might even threaten their captors condescendingly. Only after they were tortured would they shut up, and some of them would beg for mercy. That was the typical procedure when a vampire was caught.

Yet, this vampire was crying in fear before she was even tortured.

A little girl struggling crazily and begging for mercy hysterically was indeed surprising and somewhat pitiful.

Human beings were particularly tolerant of children. Even though they knew that this girl might actually be an old woman, they still hesitated when they saw her as a little girl.

More importantly, this girl was rather pretty, which further increased their tolerance.

Of all the people here, Andonara was the strongest, but her heart was the softest too. Seeing that the girl was crying miserably, she couldn't help but move her feet back although she knew that this was a vampire.

Without the restrictions, the little girl crept to Roland on all fours and tried to hug his feet.

Fearing that he might be attacked, Roland had established his magic shield, so the girl in black could only stick her face to the shield and wail, ”Don't kill me! Please! I've never murdered any human beings! Even though I drank their blood, no blood slaves were killed because of me. I never did any bad things.”

Hearing the girl's miserable cries, Andonara felt sorry for her, and so did Cage.

Both of them were of the Hero bloodline. Kindness was their innate quality.

The other magic apprentices also looked at the girl in sympathy.

Roland wasn't really moved. He had seen a vampire manipulating monsters and dividing mercenaries in order to eliminate them easily.

It seemed nothing strange if those treacherous creatures turned into little children to trick others.

Thinking about that, Roland found the girl quite familiar. He felt that he had seen her before.

Under Roland's gaze, Christina felt less and less confident.

As a matter of fact, she was both bitter and desperate.

She had been too hungry just now, and when she smelled meat, she thought that she could regain her strength by eating some meat.

She never even thought to suck anyone's blood.

But out of her expectation, when she had just landed on the tree and was about to figure out if she could steal some food from the party, the blue flames had soared to the sky and almost frozen her soul. Because of the natural suppression, she realized Andonara's real identity immediately.

The woman was a descendant of a Hero.

Christina had long heard that a Hero who once defeated a Devil King lived in Hollevin as a hermit. But it was just an unconfirmed rumor.

In fact, almost all the evil creatures that ever approached Reed Village had been killed by Cage, who could smell them from a hundred meters away.

Those evil creatures who luckily escaped, due to their pride, wouldn't tell their fellows that they'd been beaten. Besides, evil creatures only wished that others were more unlucky than them, so they would not reveal where the descendant of the Hero was hiding at all.

At this point, Christina felt that she must've been cursed by the Goddess of Misfortune. Since three months ago, every family she had joined was destroyed by the Golden Sons, and now that she was acting alone, she ran into the descendant of a Hero, who swore to kill all evil creatures ruthlessly.

She knew that resistance would be futile. The descendant could've killed her easily, not to mention that a powerful Mage was standing by her side.

At this point, she had recognized that Roland was the powerful spellcaster who crashed into and killed her chief Bruce with a lightning bolt in each hand.

There was no chance of escape for her at all.

So she could only beg for mercy.

Hearing Christina's devastating cries, Andonara hesitated.

She looked at Roland, asking with her eyes how to deal with the girl.

Roland thought for a moment and said, ”It would be great if we can figure out whether she's speaking the truth or not.”

”She probably is.” At this point, Cage came close and circled Christina, before he said, ”There's evil in her, but it's very mild, only as much as a human bully. She's not a dark creature that deserves death. One might even say that she's a good guy among the dark creatures.”

Roland was rather impressed. He didn't know that a Hero could see the evil inside a creature.

He asked curiously, ”Then how much do I have?”

”None.” Cage shook his head. ”You never harmed anyone intentionally or maliciously.”

Andonara looked at Cage and asked in surprise, ”I have the family bloodline power too, don't I? Why can't I feel anything?”

”The female offspring of the Hero do not have this ability. But as compensation, their other abilities are strengthened, usually in terms of fire. So, you're much more skilled with the blue flames than I am. I remember that my aunt who went missing a long time ago was a great fire user too.”
