Chapter 12: The Past 500 years...

"Do you know what this place is?" Indra asked.

Sarah did not waste any time in answering her master's question to the best of her ability. "This is the castle where an ancient race of fallen used to live, master."

"Do you know what happened to them?"

"...Supposedly they died spontaneously somehow over 500 years ago."

Enyo immediately forgot all of her anger as she finally made her presence known. "500 years?! We've been asleep for that long?!"

Unfortunately, Sarah would not answer one who wasn't her master and did not even offer the beautiful poltergeist a glance.

Something Enyo clearly didn't like as she felt her anger once again rising up.

If this bitch didn't want to talk, she would kick her jaw clean off her body!

"Answer her." Indra ordered, inadvertently saving Sarah from going to the afterlife with half a face.

"I do not know how long you've slept but it has been over 500 years since the vampires went extinct." She said, although Indra could not help but notice her tone was significantly less respectful when she spoke to his maid.

Enyo however did not seem to notice this however as she felt her mind reeling from another fact.

'They're really gone... Everyone is dead..' Even though the castle had clearly been abandoned, she never actually thought that everyone, the king included would have actually died.

He was a powerhouse that stood atop this world after all.

"How did they die?"

"There's... no clear story, master." Sarah looked to be ashamed that she could not answer one of her master's questions. "The fallen believe the races of light to be the ones responsible but none have come forward to claim responsibility."

Such a thing had stumped the world for years.

Who could have possibly killed all of the vampires?

The amount of magic required to kill off an entire race at the same time without exception was nothing short of inconceivable.

Yet the group responsible had not come forward?

Indra began to wonder if they were lurking somewhere reveling in the chaos.

He and Enyo sat down on the ground in front of Sarah and made themselves comfortable.

"Tell us everything we've missed in the last 500 years."

Sarah did not even bat an eye at such an outrageous order.

"Of course, master."

-

Over the next hour or so, Sarah proceeded to tell the pair everything she knew about the past half a millennia.

Luckily, the human girl was an avid historian so she was fairly well informed when it came to history.

Her hobby that had earned her so much teasing from her friends was finally paying off as she helped her master to the best of her ability.

Other than the occasional question, Enyo and Indra did not say anything.

The pair simply listened with all of their being as they tried not to miss a single detail.

When Sarah finally finished, Indra was calmly processing the information while Enyo was once again in shock.

The knowledge that her race was on the verge of being wiped out wasn't nearly as surprising as when Sarah told her about special humans who can cultivate and use arcane.

More than anything else, she was slightly afraid.

Her prince was the last vampire left, so it was now her duty to protect him and see to it that he lived long enough to resurrect his species!

But as a mere overlord realm cultivator, how was she supposed to protect him from these fearsome heroes she'd been told about?

Poke!

Enyo was distracted from her thoughts by a long finger in her cheek. "Uwah?"

The source of the sudden attack was Indra who noticed his maid's disturbed expression. "Why are you worried about useless things?"

"H-How do you know I'm worried?" Enyo asked, not denying her concern.

"Why else would you make such a pitiful expression?"

"I-I'm not pitiful!"

Sarah watched the two unblinkingly.

'Is she master's woman?'

Getting a disturbing feeling, Indra turned again to see Sarah moving her head back and forth between the two of them.

"Do you have a map with you?" He suddenly asked.

Sarah wasted no time in taking out a large paper map from her backpack and handing it to Indra.

After taking the map from her, he handed it directly to Enyo.

Slice!

With razor sharp precision, Indra used his blade like hand to lop off the young girl's head.

His movements were so swift and fast, Sarah did not even feel any pain before she died.

As her head flew, Indra wiped the blood off his clawed hands before something in him relaxed.

With the last of his prey killed, Indra came out of his hunting mode and his clothes returned to his normal black and burgundy kimono.

Indra looked down at his hands like they belonged to a stranger.

While it wasn't unpleasant, he had definitely not been acting of his own will before.

The training had simply kicked in and he became no more than a passenger in his own body.

'Should I be worried? It did help me after all.' Indra stopped staring at his hands and instead tuned to a shocked looking Enyo.

"What nonsense are you thinking of now?" He asked in an exasperated manner.

"I.. thought you were going to keep her."Enyo whispered.

"Why would I do that?" Indra didn't need any extra baggage at the moment.

They were about to go out into a harsh and largely unknown world, he didn't need anything to slow he and Enyo down.

"Well you're already a man at over 800 years old and she was sort of pretty... I thought maybe you wanted to... use her body.."

Indra had never seen his ghost maid so shy as she was right now.

"I assure you I hadn't thought of that." He said, mildly surprised they were even talking about this. "Besides, if I had an urge like that, why would I settle for her when you're always floating around?"

"Uwah?!"

"Even a blind man can see you're much more beautiful than she was."

Indra stood up and walked over Sarah's headless body.

Enyo would've followed if her legs had not been turned into jelly and her mind gone cloudy.

'Beautiful? The prince thinks I'm beautiful? Me? Enyo?'

It had been... a very long time since the poltergeist had been complimented.

While she was of course beautiful, she worked in a castle filled with vampires where beauty was as common as ants on the ground.

For her prince to give her such a sincere compliment, she was naturally very flustered.

'Is this because of his memory loss? He's never said anything like this to me before! Am I reading too much into this? Why did he have to go and say such an embarrassing thing?!'

Eventually, her mind could not take it and her brain simply shut down.

Her beautiful reddish pink eyes rolled back into her head before she fainted dramatically.

Indra noticed that his charming maid had fainted and immediately knew he was the culprit.

'Who knew she was so weak to compliments?'

After making sure she was okay, the vampire fished in his pocket and pulled out the seven low grade storage rings that he'd looted from the corpses of the intruders.

The items he'd taken from the adventurers would hopefully assist him when he and Enyo were outside.

"Shall I try my luck?"
