Alastor made it clear to him, he can take care of that monster by himself. Glox's role for now is on guard duty. Frankly, whether Alastor tell him or not, he will undoubtedly left to aid the women and the children, specially Reia, she is the heirest of the elven tribe. He cannot let her out of his sight, now that she is close to her, never again will let her do her own bidding after the plight she had to face for the past months all by herself.

He ran in the forest, not even the slightest of monsters intrusion were able to halt and continued to his way. His eyes were filled with emerald mana and felt the danger revolving on the people that he's after. His speed increased and whizzed through the wind. Monsters sprung out of the darkness, the likely same of Alastor that face, but lesser to it in strength. Glox knives began to emanate light.

"Get out of my way!"

As he swung the light extended. The darkness was dispelled easily and by the means of his speed, he was able to caught on to them. Reia used protection magic against the monstrous shadow, while the others use their guns against it, but it seems that it is impenetrable by any physical means and by the look of the Reia's situation, she cannot portray offensive magic without leaving safe from the other monsters attacks.

Glox leap with his knife sabers and attack the enemy. The monster howled and draw back. The shadowy figure began to change its figure to a manly stature.

"Glox. I'm glad that you are here. What happened to Al?"

"Don't worry about him. Worry this demon in front of us."

"Right." Reia replied. "Sherry, take the kids and take cover."

Sherry nodded and take the kids behind the boulder far away from their fight.

The monster sprung and glided down. Glox reaction time was slow, luckily, Reia conjured protection wall magic against the enemies attack and was followed by fire magic. The magic blasted the monster away. The smoke whirled when Glox spurted wind magic to increased his speed. His knife light saber pierce through the monster. It did not take taxed too much when the enemy was stunned by Reia's attack.

Glox felt the heaviness of its flesh when he pulled out the knife light saber.

"It seems that holy magic is effective against his kind."

"Yes, it seems so."

The monster crippled and its form finally revealed. Clad in dark attire, the pang revealed and horrid eyes brimmed in red.

"A vampire?" Glox asked to himself. "This can't be. How can such creature can conjure such dark magic?"

"Let us pray to find the right answer later after we finished the enemies. Here they come!" Reia said.

"What?"

Others shadowy figures began to sprung out in the darkness. Reia concerned eyes led to Sherry and the children hiding behind the boulder. She hands raises and conjured shields to protect them against the enemies.

"That should hold them for long." She said.

"My lady, should we withdraw?"

"Does it look like we have another option?"

As much as he wants to grabbed her away, she will eventually hate him for abandoning the child, so he chose the latter.

"I'm afraid, not."

"Good. 'Cause I hate running away from a good fight." She smirked. "Foul creatures, do not think you can have it your way. By the blessed power of the elder gods, I will end your wicked existence here."

"Do you remember the basic aptitude of combat?"

"I do and it's time to put my training into a test."

Reia conjured wind magic to disrupt their senses and vision, allowing her to create illusions. Her palm were placed against the shadows chest. The monster gradually felt the heat and it was too late to withdraw as it is now under her spell.

"Fiaraga!"

The monster erupted in flame and turn to dust in a matter of second. Glox easily defeated the monsters now he knows that his holy magic were effective against the enemies. He whirled around cutting them off in their fatal parts of their body.

"You've done well, my lady." He complimented.

"Same goes to you."

The monsters slowly back down and retreated.

"That is right, fend off, before I'll kill you all."

Their actions had not diverted Glox premonition. He felt a disturbing presence that exert oneself effort to hide its presence.

"I believe it is not the end. Raised your guard, My lady."

A shadow hopped and crashed at them. The blast of wind caught them and shook off their balance.

"So, this is the beings that disturbed our hunting. Oh, I love a good challenge."

In a single swift the dust whirling around dissipated. A man in grandiose outfit emerges. Their eyes can tell the immense dark mana circling around him.

"A bishop kind of vampire?"

"A bishop?" He snickers. "I'm flattered to be compared on that kind, but, forgive me for the misgivings, I am not. I am just a mere captain of this division. You'll have to read more about of us, not just a tiptoeing guess."

"Impossible. Your dark mana exceeds the normal ones." She said with a surprise expression.

"I am normal."

"What the hell is the meaning of this?"

"Please do enlightened me with your strength. I have heard that you lot causes commotion and a headache to my allies over here. I cannot imagine how tremendously powerful duo you are."

"I am well confident that we will meet your expectation."

"Well then. Shall we begin?" He reckoned.

Glox lead the charge. His weapon flash light and attack him, but no matter he try, he can't hit him. From right to left, the vampire easily evaded Glox. He shifted his position and with one punch, Glox was blew away.

"Is that all?"

On the contrary, Reia caught him surprisingly from behind. Her fire and ice magic inflicted the enemy. His clothes burned, showing the skin having second degree burn which was worsened by her ice magic.

"Hm. Now come to think of it, the two of you come from the elven tribe, am I correct?"

"So, what if?"

"Nothing. I find it curious how come secretive tribe are out of their nest. Is there something that lured you away from your home?"

"That is none of your business." Reia strictly replied.

"Oh, but it is. You see, vampires and elven race are sworn enemies."

"Do not flatter yourself. Every foul creatures are elven's sworn enemies." She replied.

"Nonetheless, I must take the two of you seriously. I cannot allow that the two of you will go unattended. My master will be please if I offer your heads to him."

"My lady, I'm afraid our friend here is beyond help. He is deluded."

Her hatred towards vampires reflected on her eyes. She despises them for the fact that they chaos during the previous war of blights. Majority of the previous eras, the vampires were the one who mostly inflicted the elven tribes.

"Can't disagree with that thought. Do not take us so lightly, vampire. Blink, you'll get stake. Blink twice, you'll get burn."

He sighed and close his eyes for a second. "You cannot fathom what I can do. You don't even know what kind of -"

Before he can finish his words, Reia conjured fire sword magic and pierce it through the vampire's flesh.

"The third warning, close your eyes and you'll get both."
