105 Yesterday A Line, Today A Smudge!

With a faint smiling expression on his face, Dro walked up to Fina, stopping an arm's length away from her. The corners of his lips lowered, forming a serious expression on his face. He raised his right arm and put his right hand on her left shoulder and looked directly into her beautiful light-orange eyes. "Fina, I didn't trick you. You may have killed those wolves, but you wouldn't have stood a chance against a vampire or a werewolf. You need my protection – if you want to survive, and you know that. Because, if you didn't, you wouldn't have accepted my proposition in the first place."

Fina's eyebrows furrowed. She looked into Dro's dark red eyes for 3 seconds in silence, and then her eyebrows unfurrowed and her eyes widened, returning back to normal. The pouting expression disappeared from her beautiful face. It was replaced with a blank expression and she slowly nodded her head.

Dro raised the corners of his lips, forming a faintly smiling expression on his face. He moved his right hand away from Fina's left shoulder, lowering his right arm to the right side of his body. "Let's go," he said.

"Okay, big brother," Fina said, and Dro led Fina in the direction of the werewolf village.

Walking 40-yards, they saw a wolf lying on the ground in front of them and they both stopped.

Dro raised his left arm above his head, and a spear made out of blood formed in his raised arm's hand as he used the skill by spending 35 blood. And at the moment the spear made out of blood formed, he chugged it at the wolf. *SWOOSH!* The blood spear flew through the air and impaled the beast; damage floated above its head, , and it yelped out from pain and fell to the ground, dead; a few notification messages flashed in front of him.

"Let's continue," Dro said with a faint smiling expression on his face.

Fina blinked her eyes a twice, turned her head to Dro and nodded. "Okay, big brother Dro," she said and they walked off into the distance.

They came across 9 more wolves and Dro killed them all in a single attack, and from killing these 9 wolves they received 450 experience points; Dro levelled up from to and Fina levelled up from to . After killing the last ninth wolf and walking a few more yards they came to a complete stop as in the distance between the trees, they saw tall walls made out of wood.

"We are here," Dro said.

"I see," Fina said.

"Let's go find the entrance." Dro said, and Fina nodded her head in agreement before saying, "Alright, big brother Dro." They rotated around the walls, and when they saw the gate they stopped. In front of the gate stood two werewolves.

Dro raised his left arm above his head and a spear made out of blood appeared in it as he used the skill by spending 35 Blood. He threw the spear at the werewolf. *SWOOSH!* The blood spear flew through the air and impaled the werewolf. Damage floated up above his head he fell down to the ground, dead; a notification message flashed in front of him.

The remaining werewolf village guard turned his head to Dro and Fina, but as he turned his head, Dro straightened his left arm towards this werewolf and a bolt made out of blood flew out of his palm as he used the skill by using 40 blood and 40 energy. *SWOOSH!* The blood bolt flew through the air and collided with the werewolf; damage floated above its head, , and it yelped out from pain and fell to the ground, dead; a few notification messages flashed in front of him.

"Let's go into the village," Dro said.

"Alright," Fina said and they walked through the village gate. Walking through the village gate they saw werewolf children and a few adult werewolves from the left, the front and the right, and the werewolves closest to them turned their heads in their direction.

Dro turned his head to Fina. "I am going to kill them all. You are welcome to join me if you want." He said and thought, "The line that I wasn't willing to cross twenty years ago, now isn't the line at all…"

Fina frowned and turned her head to Dro. "Why are you killing them, but not me?"

Dro turned his head to Fina. His eyes met with her's. "You are special." He turned his head back. His eyes met with the adult werewolf's eyes and the werewolf said, "I think I misheard you, brother. Could you repeat what you just said?"

"Sure thing, brother." Dro pulled out his blood sword from his back, "Die!"

…

Fina turned her head to Dro. "You really killed everyone."

Dro shook his head. "It's not over yet. There are a few more in the third house and a handful of them in the fifth house."

Fina furrowed her eyebrows. "How do you know that?"

"To me all living beings radiate 'dread' and I can feel that dread no matter how small it is." Dro said and Fina nodded her head in understanding.

…

"Are we done now?" Fina said.

"Yes," Dro said.

"Where to now?" Fina said.

"Now we are going to kill the parents of these children, let's go," Dro said.

…

Dro and Fina walked out of the forest and they made their way to the cave. They arrived at the cave and they saw a werewolf standing in their path.

Dro raised his left arm above his head and a spear made out of blood appeared in it as he used the skill by spending 35 Blood; he threw the spear at the werewolf. *SWOOSH!* The blood spear flew through the air and impaled the werewolf. Damage floated up above his head he fell down to the ground, dead; a notification message flashed in front of him.

Dro walked into the cave and Fina followed after him. In the cave Dro killed 16 werewolf guards. They received a total of 4,000 experience points. Dro levelled up from to and Fina levelled up from to .

"Count Tharon is outside." Dro thought and said, "Fina, stop."

Fina stopped and turned her head to Dro, "What's wrong. Big brother Dro?"

Dro extended his hand and cast , a gate opened in front of them. "We are going through."
