RE:BORN Zombie

“Let’s move.” Victor said after he placed the bodies of the vampires he just killed in his system.

Eating eat one after the other would take his time, and since he could do it later, there was no need to waste his time around. He was also heavily considering the option to change his second form into something else that would make it easier for him when it came to extracting evolution material. ‘Maybe a snake would suffice.’ Victor thought to himself. He didn’t really buy into the idea of changing himself too much into a different creature even though he could, especially now that he had some part of his emotions, it just didn’t feel right and it made him a bit uncomfortable thinking about what he would look like.

Victor had left only one vampire alive, and it wasn’t the one that led him to the others. He found out that the vampire wasn’t the leader, so he killed him along with the others and took control of the actual leader.

The vampires were part of a vampire family, and they were sent to scout the other side of the gate, which so happened to be crawling with humans, and they ended up getting a bit carried away.

After they arrived at the gate, Victor stepped back one step and allowed the one following him to lead the way from there on out. It was more sensible to let the escort lead the way after all.

They walked through the gate, and just like any other normal gate he had entered before, the feeling was the same and nothing was off. He would think that one that was created artificially would be different.

The other side of the gate though, was quite surprising as it wasn’t exactly what Victor expected, completely. He could tell that it wasn’t night time, but the entire place was almost dark, not that he had any problems with seeing. The environment showed the results of the darkness, as the plants were out of sight, and those that could thrive were not higher than shrubs and grass. For now, he was yet to see any proper tree or vegetation.

The terrain was a bit rocky, and Victor needed n one to tell him the place they would be heading to would be beside a cliff.

Both Victor and the vampire leading the way were fast, and it only took both under ten minutes to cover much ground and get to their destination. As for Victor’s expectation for the vampire family house, he was quite put to shame as they were more complex than he thought. Their house wasn’t just beside a cliff, it covered and spanned across several cliffs looking a bit edgy in some places.

“We are here.” The vampire said as they stopped some distance away from the route they would take up the cliff.

“What was your name again?” Victor asked. He had good memory, so he suspected that he had yet to ask for the vampire’s name.

“Langscter Brinwood” He was cut off before he continued.

“So Brinwood is the family name?” Victor said, not as much of a question, but he still got a nod from the vampire.

Victor was actually a little concerned, not that he didn’t trust in his strength, but he still didn’t fancy walking into the unknown much.

For one, there were no guards or teams stationed close to the gate, which was supposed to be. Now that they were at the castle of the Brinwoods however, he could see that above a certain level of the rocky mountain, there seemed to be more than the number of guards required stationed outside the house. Not like he would know how the guards around here carried out their duties, but even he could tell they were quite much.

“What’s up with all the guards?” Victor asked. He had seen how strong the vampires who fought against the hunters on earth were, and he found like to think their lord was stronger, as it should be.

“I don’t know.. It wasn’t like this before we left.” The vampire answered, even he wasn’t sure of what was going on.

“How long have your team been gone.” Victor asked.

“We spent a week around the gate before getting the go ahead to breach and scout the other side.” He said.

‘Wait, then the time difference is quite wide… Hmm.’ Thought Victor.

“Let’s do this.” Victor said as he took another look at the perimeters created by the large rocks.

Langscter confirmed that there was a separate team stationed around the gate, but they were no longer there when they came through. The time difference may have apart in it too, but-

It would be too suspicious if he were to follow Langscter all the way to the house, so played it the same old way and allowed Langscter to go ahead while he waited at the bottom of the rocky mountain.

‘This should be enough time.’ Victor thought to himself. He set a mark on Langscter that way he could teleport to him. Langscter confirmed that it would take him about a minute to climb to the top, but with the numerous vampires stationed all around, it would be delayed a bit, but his rank would also work in that favour. Victor waited five minutes, and after the five minutes were up, he activated his skill and teleported to the mark he could feel on Langscter. Another thing was he noticed he couldn’t feel any other of his marks, and that just went to show how much more different this gate was from a normal one. His teleportation skill allowed him to teleport into a dungeon or gate, and that was already considered another dimension. But this time was different, as to why however, Victor did not know.

Maybe Victor should have chosen to teleport a bit later, as the moment he appeared he saw a vampire look him directly in the eye before their eyes widened, in which it was too late.

“Sorry I couldn’t get in the clear earlier.” Langscter said with a slight bow.

“No worries.” Victor replied.

The vampire he just killed happened to be the last Langscter had to go through. They didn’t need to worry about the body of the vampire as Victor took it and placed inside his inventory along with the others from earlier.

“Hmm…” Victor said as he looked at the massive buildings that were connected with smaller structures across several cliffs. ‘I should have done so from the start.’ He thought to himself.

Without turning to face Langscter, Victor said, “Langscter, I need you to go to the lord of this family and report first, I’ll meet you when it’s time.” He said. With a bow, Langscter turned and left.

‘I’ll let the Demon Shadow handle that, now… What to do.’
