My Vampire System novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248 Calming song

After collecting the beast crystals from the defeated hounds, Quinn had suddenly recived the message about obtaining exp. He had figured out that the exp he just gained must have been from Peter.

It was the only thing that made sense, and would also explain why the system had used the word "Share". This meant one thing. That Peter was close. He didn’t know how or why Peter was down here as well, but if he had to guess Peter probably chose to come down here to follow him.

It was strange though, even though the system was able to pick up the exp points from Peter. Quinn was still unable to sense Peter’s presence like he could when he was above ground.

"What’s wrong?" Fex asked as he could see it looked like Quinn was deep in thought.

Quinn wanted to go searching for Peter. He didn’t know how far away he needed to be for the system to pick up the exp, but the fact that he even got experience points in the first place, meant right now he was fighting other beasts.

"I think I might have spotted a strange looking building over in that direction." Said Quinn. "Do you mind if we check it out first before going to the tower?"

Fex shrugged his shoulders and replied. "Hey, it’s not like we know how to get out of this place anyway."

Both of thier eyesights were as good as each other. Nearly all vampires could see as well. The only thing that improved as they grew stronger where thier senses. Perhaps a stronger vampire would be able to sense energy in a specific direction, but in terms of how far or well they could see in the dark, it was near all the same.

When looking in the direction that Quinn had pointed to, Fex could see nothing that looked out of the ordinary. Still, Fex he was curious why the sudden change in direction.

As they were closer to the tower, the area around it wasn’t as wide. If Quinn was to go in a circle, perhaps he would be able to spot them. Without his senses, there was no way to tell which direction to go in. As Quinn was thinking about it, another message appeared.

[5 exp shared]

The message just confirmed that Peter was still in combat. Peter was strong, but if he was surrounded by multiple basic tier beasts like they were just moments ago, he wouldn’t get out of it unscratched. Even with his super healing. It would mean he would eventually have to consume human flesh once again. So Quinn picked a random direction and headed off.

Slowly, Layla’s eyes started to open, her vision was blurry at first but what stood out to her was the pain on the back of her head. She instinctively placed her hand, and the stinging was worse. When looking at her hand, dried particles of blood had rubbed off onto it. It was hard to see in the dark, but she knew from the feeling.

"Are you okay?" Vorden asked.

As she looked up, her vision had returned, and she could see the person who had done put her in this situation, standing right next to her.

"Get away from me!" Layla said in a panic. She pushed her feat of the floor against her, and once again, her head had banged into the wall.

Vorden did as asked and slowly backed away, seeing that she was panicked. She had already been hurt, and Vorden didn’t want to cause any more pain.

"Calm down, I’m not going to hurt you," Vorden said.

The sound of sobbing could be heard, Layla had planted her head between her knees and let out all the emotions away. "Why are you only like this to me?" She cried.

Seeing Layla like this, Vorden felt ache and pain in his heart. He never wanted her to get hurt.

"I’m...Sorry." Vorden said.
