Chapter 292: Tricks (1)
"Kill him already!" Darius yelled, frustrated by the sight of his guards failing to kill the human."Stop him before he gets near and bring the weapon to me."
Darius pulled his horse away, trying to get further behind his guards.
He had found what he was looking for, but there was something off about how the human moved. If he didn’t have good eyesight, he would have guessed it to be a vampire taking down his guards.
"What is he?" Darius wondered, trying to place what had happened to the human.
This strange sight was a good reason to lock the humans away, as he planned. The others were foolish not to believe in his plans, but the priest fighting his way through the guards was what Darius needed as proof.
Darius got down off his horse, deciding to be the one to deal with the priest. Joining the fight should end all talk that he was a coward.
Darius was never afraid. He simply stood back since a king didn’t need to lift a finger when he had so many guards around him.
"Stop!" Darius yelled, his voice travelling far through the street they stood on. "I will take care of the human."
Phillip smiled when he saw that Darius was going to challenge him. "This is a lovely surprise. You aren’t scared, king?" He addressed Darius in a mocking tone. "I thought you would have run back to your little palace for me to find you."
Darius studied the priest, trying to place what was off about him. The closer she got, the more certain he was that the man before him was not an ordinary human.
"What are you?" Darius asked.
