Her calm words make my blood run cold. Every muscle in my body goes rigid. My breath catches in my throat, and a shiver runs through me from head to toe.
I hesitate for a moment, then force myself to stay calm.
"Kimberly... aren't you a little too old to believe stuff like that? Everyone knows vampires aren't real..."
But the look she gives me is dead serious. Trying to convince her otherwise would be completely pointless.
A heavy silence drags on for what feels like an eternity before I finally speak again.
"How do you know...?" I ask quietly, unable to meet her eyes.
"I know because I saw you, Axel. Twice. The first time, you had already killed someone. But luckily, the second time I managed to stop you before it was too late..."
Wait... so it was her...?
"T-That Monster Slayer...? I-Is that you, Kimberly...?"
She simply nods.
I can't believe it.
Kimberly... is a Monster Slayer?
