The viper had it's eyes locked on Tyson and he just seemed annoyed. Then the viper noticed Monica and tried to eat her but Tyson was not letting that happen. He dashed at the beast and punched it on the face. The creature was sent flying a little away and was disoriented for a bit. Tyson literally glared at the swordsman who appeared scared and ordered," Throw me your damned sword!"
" It's a B class monster. It's not easy to beat," he said.
" Did I ask for your opinion. You caused this so you have no room to defy my orders!" Tyson said in anger as his eyes glew crimson.
The swordsman threw the sword and Tyson drew it while it was in the air. He dashed towards the viper and drifted around it as it stood up and tried to slam him. It was near the ledge and a crack appeared. Tyson jumped slashing up the centre of the viper up to its head. Blood spurted all over and Tyson got a good drink. His vampire state rose in power as he moved like a flash and slashed at it like crazy. Blood spurted everywhere and the viper was hissing madly. Tyson jumped into the sky and did a few flips before punching the ground. This caused the earlier cracks to increase in size and the ledge fell through. The viper fell off the high cliff killing it at the foot. Tyson stood before the carnage and smirked. He sniffed the air and caught the whiff of something. It was poison. He dashed at the girl who had been silent this entire time and bit her slightly in the neck. He drew out the poison but the others thought he was trying to kill her and attacked him. Tyson pulled back and the swordsman said," You're a vampire. A monster who should be killed."
Tyson came back to his normal state and said," Look genius. I drew out the poison inside her bloodstream. She is now safe. If you don't trust me, check, her pulse."
They scrambled to check on her as Tyson went to sit next to Monica and smiled. He breathed out and a green gas came out." That was one strong poison," said Tyson as he laid back in his original place.
The girl whom Tyson bit stood up and pushed the others aside. They tried to stop her, but she warned them. She walked up towards Tyson and stood a certain distance away from him and said," I'm thankful to you for saving my life and I'm sorry for my subordinates conduct."
" Subordinates? So, what I was smelling was not a lie. You have noble blood in you, don't you," said Tyson as he started star gazing.
" I do, I am...," began the girl when she was cut off by Tyson.
" I don't really care for your status. Whoever you are is your own business. If you wish to, stay here, I won't bite but don't wake up my friend. She's exhausted," said Tyson passively.
" Isn't that the..," began the swordsman.
" Yes she is, that's one of the saints og the empire," said Tyson exasperated.
" What is a saint doing here?" She asked.
" I don't have to answer anything you ask. Now rest, we will talk tomorrow," said Tyson as he continued stargazing.
THAT MORNING
Monica woke up first to find Tyson cutting up some meat. She asked," Where did...," she notices the other people," Um, Tyson. Who are they?"
" Some adventurers i saved yesterday from a red viper. I brought younsome water to wash your face with. Save some for them as i prepare breakfast," said Tyson as pulled out a clay container.
She looked at him crossly before grabbing the container from him. She moved to the new ledge wondering to herself that it was longer tge previous night. She washed her face and proceeded to wake the others. They were huddled together on a small boulder. The swordsman got up with his sword unsheathed in that instant. This spooked Monica as she brandished a light spell at his face. They were at odds when Tyson spoke," Watch yourself swordsman. Don't forget i saved you," as he glared at him, his eyes changing from azure to crimson.
The swordsman dropped onto his knees and begged for forgiveness. Monica told him it was ok but he refused to get up. The two women next to him groggily got up.
The swordsman was a tall astute masculine man, preferably a soldier. He held a doubled edged sword and a decent armor. He haf cobalt blue hair and royal blue eyes. He was called Rocks.
The mage was a short long haired blonde holding a long staff in her grasp. She prim clothes as if she were a priestess class mage. She was called Priscilla.
The last one was a thinly dressed archer who had short black hair. She had a smile that affected others. Her pupils were like obsidian. She had a large red bow around her chest and her arrow bag was next to her. She was called Audine.
She greeted," Good morning saint Monica. How are you?" Audine asked.
" Um, can you not use the title. Im on the run right now," said Monica.
" Is that why you are with that vampire?" Audine asked.
" Yeah, that and the fact he saved my life from.. Forget about that, why are you here audine. You also brought your bodyguard and maid. What are trying to do here?" Monica asked.
" I'm ...," she began.
" Hurry up, breakfast is served. Get it while its hot," said Tyson as he showed a set of bacon and fruits topped with cups of tea.
" Whoa," exclaimed Priscilla
" Where did you even get the dishes?" Monica asked.
" I had packed them from the slave traders in my bag while no one was paying attention. That merchant a lot of goods but i only managed to get tea leaves," Tyson explained.
" Where is that bag you speak of?" Rocks asked.
Tyson pulled out a small pouch tied to his waist and pricked himself with a thorn. Blood dripped onto it and it grew in size." Its a bag i got from my big brother Elijah last year," said Tyson with eyes of longing before adding," You should eat quickly before the slither swarm arrives."
" What?" They exclaimed.
Tyson walked to the ledge and looked to the horizon. He asked," Which town is that?"
" In that direction, you would be facing the Roux ( pronounced as Roo) KINGDOM
