Mythical Slayer: Mythical Girls Contract-Chapter 82 82 – Vampire Base

They had fun. The date was fun, and walking around Romania with Amber and Ibaraki was fun.

Kai managed to try various foods and let his mind rest from thinking too much about the Boogeymen. At least for a few hours, his focus was shifted to having fun.

The air in Bucharest felt a little bit different from New York City. It was fresher and a bit colder. It became even colder when the night arrived.

The atmosphere wasn't as lively as New York City – the city that never sleeps, but many people were still out on the street to have fun. Their destinations were bars or clubs. Some went to a café with their friends to have a nice chat.

Naturally, Kai and the other two also went out on the street. However, their goal wasn't to have fun. They were about to meet the Vampire lord and were now walking toward his base of operation in the city of Bucharest.

He wasn't sure whether he could meet the Vampire lord today after he walked around Romania without meeting a single vampire, but the Phoenix girl assured him that the Vampire lord would be present in his base.

"Why are you so sure that he's in his base?" He asked curiously at the girl on his right, who held his arm close to her chest and wore a red dress.

"Did you remember that I could track the troublemaker when that person attacked the restaurant?" Amber asked back at him, looking at him with her golden eyes. She and Ibaraki had already taken off the lenses as they no longer needed to hide their identity.

"Yes, I remember." Kai nodded. That incident was still fresh in his mind. It was the first time a person with a submachine gun attacked him and subdued that person while fusing with Amber for the first time.

"I used a certain technique to spread my Spirit Power thin around the area to detect other people's Spirit Power. It worked similarly to Ibaraki's senses, but the downside is I can also be detected while doing that. So I didn't use it a lot."

"I see."

So there was also something like that. He thought that it was because Amber could somehow see where that person had gone all this time.

But hearing the technique's downside and the fact it was similar to Ibaraki's senses, it seemed like he didn't need to learn that technique.

"So you felt the Vampire lord's Spirit Power with that technique?"

"Yes." Amber confirmed with a nod. "And the Vampire lord already noticed me. I guess this is the right time to tell you about the Vampire lord of Romania, no?"

"Hmm, it's better if I know him. Please explain about the Vampire lord, Amber." He replied.

"Alright! I will tell you what I know. The Vampire lord's name is Grigori Tepes. And he…"

Amber began to explain what she knew about the Vampire lord, Grigori Tepes. Kai and Ibaraki listened to her as they walked slowly toward his base. Ibaraki had confirmed that this Grigori wasn't the one who contracted the strongest in the past.

Apparently, he was the new leader after the past leader had passed away.

"The Vampires have more authority here if compared to the Slayer Organization. Most humans also worked under Grigori Tepes as he pays better than the organization."

The more Kai knew about the Grigori Tepes, the more he thought that the Vampire lord was a good guy. That was until Amber's tone suddenly dropped.

"Even so, he's still a Vampire lord. He's not as kind as humans because of their needs…"

"Blood." Kai continued, to which Amber answered with a nod.

"Indeed. Even if the vampires could live by animal blood, it seems human's blood is way tastier for them. Grigori Tepes has businesses all over Romania. And for those who owe him a debt, he would ask for their blood as payment."

The continuation of the story seemed to be something straight out of a story. Paying a debt with blood. Maybe Kai would only hear it in this place. "I can't say that I am impressed."

"Well, I can't say I am too." Amber replied with a disgusted look.

"Even if they didn't kill the humans, what they did is still something that I don't like. But it's your decision whether you will need their help or not, Kai. One thing is for sure. They will not carelessly make a move against you when they know that you're the Ruler."

"I will keep that in mind."

After what happened in Oni Village and Japan, he learned something. That was not to get caught up in others' schemes.

He didn't know at that time and only followed Amber's lead, which led to him fighting against Ranga. That was something stupid when he thought about it again.

While he was confident about winning, he didn't get anything from winning against him. He had forgotten to give his condition, while if he lost, he would lose Amber.

'I was too na?ve. Even if it's their tradition and Amber told me to fight, and that was my chance to test my strength, I should've asked something from Ranga. But well, I got the best treatment and a lot of money after I won, but I shouldn't do that again in the future.'

This time, he would meet Grigori Tepes. Without a doubt, the Vampire lord would ask for something from him in exchange for their help. Depending on what it was, maybe it would be better to think about it. If it involved Amber or Ibaraki, then he would refuse their help even if he needed them.

'I am the one who brought them, so it's my duty to protect them too, even if they said they would protect me.'

His situation right now was the one who needed help and information. More than that, even if he was the Ruler, he was the visitor of the Vampire's territory. He didn't know about them, either, so he couldn't guess how they would respond to him.

After walking for a while, Amber suddenly released Kai's arm and stopped. The other two also stopped with her, looking at her, confused.

"We've arrived." The Phoenix girl only exclaimed while pointing her index finger toward a certain establishment. "That's the Vampire lord's base."

Kai followed her finger and was surprised. It was due to the building that Amber pointed at.

'The Vampire lord is indeed the lord of the night, but…'

Even so, it was still surprising for him. He was expecting a mansion in the middle of the woods with a dark and eerie aura befitting a vampire. Or at least a house covered in crows who cried all night long, not this kind of building.

The building was covered in neon lights, and many people queued to enter it. Not only was it lively and well-lit, but it also wasn't hidden in the woods at all. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

The name of its place was written on a sign created by neon lights hung above the door while changing color at certain intervals. The name was 'Vampire Night.'

Kai didn't believe it at first, but he confirmed it when he opened the map application on his phone, and his lips twitched. Then he couldn't help but retort.

"Isn't it just a nightclub?!"
