Chapter 44: The Escape Part 1
I forgot about the pain as I ran through the night like a madman.
I had no destination in mind. My only thought was to put as much distance between us and the Keeper as possible.
I stopped once to patch Senri up. Her condition looked a bit more stable. She should not die as long as she was not poisoned or something else along those lines.
The aura of blessing around her never dimmed. Even as she was wrapped in a thick robe, the pain it inflicted upon me never lessened. However, I cannot stop.
I was running out of time. The brilliant moon already shone overhead. The day would break in just a few hours. Which means, I have to find a way to keep moving under the sunlight somehow.
Amongst the numerous weaknesses of vampires, sunlight is the worst.
Those dreadful vampires would never miss an opportunity to make use of it.
I ran past a peaceful meadow and was greeted by a huge, black mountain range.
I suppose it would be much easier to conceal ourselves in the mountains… we might even be able to find a cave to rest in. At this rate, if the sun happens to rise before Senri wakes up… I am done for. Not to mention, there are monsters out in the open.
