519 Chater 519: Betrayal (2/2)
But the cause of deaths sounded suspiciously like vampires…
”According to our most trusted source, the demonic faction known as the Crimson Blood Demonic Night Tribe is the culprit.”
Who the hell was your ”most trusted source”? What the hell were you trying to do, sound like a sports journalist or something? Nobody spoke like that in a conversation in real life, not unless they were writing a news article. You know, like ”sources close to the club said that…” Dude, you really sounded like some flat, two-dimensional character who was just showing up to move the horrible plot along.
Yi Shen continued, unaware that his unnatural and cheesy dialogue was grating on my nerves. ”All hunters from guilds belonging to the Hunter Association in those two schools have been annihilated. It's very clear that there is a spy in the Hunter Association.”
No, it was NOT clear at all. Could you, like, explain the link? How the hell did ”hunters being killed in these two schools” equate to ”there must be a spy in the Hunter Association”?! I didn't see any link or correlation? I mean, maybe they got killed because they encountered strong vampires? Where was your proof that there was a traitor?
I personally knew that Ji Yan was the spy feeding Yi Tai information, but that was because I stumbled upon her telling him stuff. If I didn't eavesdrop on them, I would never have made the link between deaths and spies. Yeah, I knew it was supposed to be a plot-induced revelation, but this just made no sense whatsoever!
Best of all, I had told them that Ji Yan was the traitor, and they refused to believe me. Zhao Yan had insisted that her sister could be trusted, and they ended up suspecting me for trying to drive a wedge into their relationship. Okay, so they didn't believe me that there was a traitor, but when people started dying, suddenly that was because it was done by a spy? And even though I had clearly told them that Ji Yan was the spy, they refused to make the link?
”I'm guessing the next target will be us.”
Why? Because Zhao Yan and Ji Yan were the main characters?
”We can't delay this any longer. Tonight, we are going to set up a barrier of silver crosses around our school.”
What the fuck?!
No, seriously. WHAT THE FUCK?!
Why wait until tonight to set a barrier of silver crosses around your school? Shouldn't that be done right from the very beginning, like, you know, when you first started enrolling in this school? What was with this sudden realization that you need a barrier only now? Were you guys freaking amateurs?! Who the hell waited until there was an actual threat staring down your face before finally being compelled to set up barriers around your freaking home base?!
Was there no sense of security or logic in these so-called HUNTERS?!
And in the next panel, I saw that the once-bright afternoon sky had been replaced by night. What the hell was with this transition? Before I knew what was happening, I saw the four of them jumping around and landing stylishly (Deadpool would have called their poses the classic superhero landing)…just to put the silver crosses on the ground.
That was right. A mundane task of setting up a barrier and fixing silver crosses into position, and they had to jump around so flamboyantly and make stylish landings, as if they were being watched by an audience.
I decided that I was never going to read Vampire Sphere again. The sheer amount of annoyance I suffered when reading this nonsense of a webcomic was becoming too much for me to bear.
Suspecting there was something because Ji Yan received a full panel to herself, I decided to randomly check on her rendezvous with Yi Tai in the abandoned classroom Room 5. As Yi Tai bit into her neck sensually and sucked her blood, she fed him info in addition to her red bodily fluids.
”They've already set up the barrier so that zombies will not be able to enter…”
Wait, what? Uh…did she just say zombies? Seriously? There were zombies in this world? Why hadn't I heard of them before? I thought they only appeared in Biohazard/Resident Evil games – which had just received two remakes recently, by the way. Oh, right. I had heard of rumors regarding necromancy and monsters such as Lich Lords or Skeletal Kings or whatever, but I had no idea how true they were. Given that Ji Yan just dropped that huge bomb on me as if it was nothing more than a common occurrence, I guess zombies were real.
Not that I wanted to meet them…
”But I swapped the real silver crosses with fake ones in some of the assigned locations…”
”Very good.” Xu Wu Cheng raised his head and smiled, wiping the blood from his lips as he complimented his blood servant. ”Any news on…?”
The word was deliberately censored out to keep me (and the readers) in suspense. I cursed under my breath and wondered why I wasn't able to hear that word. Ji Yan, on the other hand, looked conflicted. Annoyed, Xu Wu Cheng glared at her.
”Why are you spacing out for?”
”Nothing…” Ji Yan lowered her head shamefully, still unable to say anything. Yi Tai decided to let it go.
”Okay, the Crimson Blood Demonic Night Tribe is going to deal with this school quickly.” Yi Tai stood up and produced three paper sachets from his pocket before handing them to Ji Yan. ”These are three sachets that contain a kind of powder that will weaken the user's combat ability. Find an opportunity to slip these into your sect's beverages and have them drink them. Of course, I'm including your sister, Zhao Yan, as well…”
My blood ran cold when I listened from outside the classroom. This couldn't be happening! Would Ji Yan really betray her sister and the Guang Zhi Yi Sect? If she really intended to do so, I had to warn them! Hell, I was going to give this whole recording to the headmistress!
…as it turned out, I got scolded once again, and this time Taylor threatened to expel me and send me back to Jing Tian City if I continued ”harassing” Xu Wu Cheng and Ji Yan. As for Zhao Yan and the Guang Zhi Yi Sect, they almost resolved never to talk to me again.
FUCK THIS! WHY WOULDN'T ANYBODY BELIEVE ME?! I WAS TELLING THE TRUTH!
