章 4: Chapter 1:Two Princes: Part 4
He wrapped the baby around him, tied him to the back strap, and started looking for his parents. As he was going through every part of the circus, he heard some kind of sound that came from behind the stage of the circus. He moved slowly towards the backstage. There were many bodies lying around the backstage area. Many of them are missing different body parts. Some of them were burned alive. While some looked like the soul was sucked out of them,
In the meantime, the shadowy figure in the air completed his attack. He was about to destroy the whole place. When he saw someone standing in the middle of the circus with a baby wrapped around his back, looking down on the ground. But the aura he was emitting scared the sh*t out of the shadowy figure.
"Who are you?" asked the shadowy figure.
"…" Rupert didn't reciprocate, just standing there with eyes red with tears and eyebrows frowning so hard that his face was not able to take the pressure, and his veins in his head were such that it seemed that they were about to explode. Such was his fury that even the strongest sorcerer in the world right now would get startled if he faced him right now.
"I am James Pistol, the second in command of the mission to exterminate the vampires. But if you will cooperate, I will only take you as a prisoner. In the name of the high and mighty Mags, I ask you to surrender right now. Or else-". James was explaining the situation to him when he was stopped by a very hoarse voice, which sounded as if it could cut through a person if it were a weapon.
"Shut the fuck up, you piece of shit; I am not here to listen to your babble!"
"Oh, then what are you here for, Mr.?"
"I am here to kill you and everyone you bought HERE."
"What can you possibly do? I am only second to Alber---." As he was trying to finish up the sentence, he saw that Rupert had disappeared. He tried to look for him. But he was nowhere to be found. But as he looked back, he was there with his fist, nearly knocking down his face. The force of the fist was such that, even though it just gazed, he felt a great pain in his mouth. But due to that, he was no longer levitating. He came back to the ground, but as soon as he put his shoe on the ground, he saw fire in the shape of a dragon coming to him. Which would have engulfed him if, for the fact, he hadn't used
"Ice Dragon is a magic spell to counter the spell Fire Dragon." James understood that he was fighting no ordinary vampire; he knew that in terms of raw strength, he was not even close to Rupert's power level as a vampire. But in terms of magic prowess, it was the opposite. So, it was a matter of who took the other down with their power.
Now they were standing facing each other on the ground. Even the trees, animals, and birds were shaking because of the tension and the force field that was being created because of their magic.
"Let's do a duel, Mr.... excuse me, what is your name?" James asked with a grin on his face.
"You are laughing? You're LAUGHING AFTER KILLING ALL OF THESE PEOPLE?"
"What does a duel have to do with some worthless people dying?" he said in a sarcastic voice.
"Worthless, you say, all of those worthless people had families—a family that always cared for them, a family that always stayed together, during all these times when you were chasing us to kill all the time."
"So what? What do you expect now? Sorry, there is a place for you monsters to live. You people shouldn't have been born in the first place. Do you know how many of you monsters have killed innocent non-magic folks? Don't act like you are the victim here."
"Victim? You're right Maybe I am one, or maybe these innocent kids that you have killed are ones. Yes, some of us have killed some nom-magic folks out there. But it has been a long time since we abandoned the inferno. The vampire group that you people are searching for, We had nothing to do with them."
"Nothing to do with them; SHUT UP! All of you are the same. The day you get a taste of a living person, you will crave more, look for more, and hunt for more. You never care for what will happen to them."
"No, I don't care. When you people are killing us for a reason that we have not done. Just because of your infidelity to catch the real criminals,"
"It doesn't matter."
"You're right; it doesn't matter anymore. You wanted a duel, right? I will give you a duel."
Both of them started to adjust their positions. The rules of the duel are simple. Both of them have to say they are ready, and they can only use one spell at a time. They are allowed to dodge a spell while it is being cast. They are allowed to use spells twice only if the second one is for defense.
As they looked for each other. They started to move back a little for extra space so that it would be advantageous in the duel. Now was the time for the battle. But then suddenly, someone from the sky fell down. Rupert knew who it was.
