Vampire King's Harem-Chapter 48 Dinner Time (2)

Klaus and Irina approach Keld's camp; the two moons in the sky and so many stars make the night less dark, but the dunes prevent the group from noticing the couple approaching.

Also, as Keld and his fellows are so close to the campfire, the flames reduce their vision in the dark, allowing Klaus and Irina to get within a few hundred meters of them.

When the fairy sees the big cages in the group's wagons, she loses any pity she could have had for them, and only anger remains. "They are fucking slavers!"

"That's good, right?" A murderous glint passes through Klaus' eyes. "I can have a nice dinner, and as a bonus, we rid this land of such human trash."

Irina has never felt this strong before, and a part of her wants to use that power to help her people; That doesn't mean she wants to jump headlong into an old war, but killing slavers looks nice.

"I want to have fun too." She speaks to Klaus.

That surprises him a little. It seemed normal for her to kill the Bronze Skull Sect necromancers after what they did to them, but attacking a random group doesn't seem like something she would typically do. 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮

He looks at her with a caring expression. "Are you sure, my love?"

"Absolutely." She responds with determination. "I spent a long time living in my own world under the protection of my parents; only after arriving in this place could I really understand why my people hate humans so much..."

Her eyes also shine with murderous intent as she gazes at those cages. "They want to hunt us, right? So I don't mind giving them the same."

"Right." Klaus holds her hand and strokes it. "Then let's hunt them together, dear."

"Mm." She nods as she looks over the camp. "And how do we do that? A direct approach, or do you have some plan?"

Klaus remembers how he hunted people on Earth, most were pretty easy to kill, but witches could be a challenge.

"First, we have to observe the prey; knowing how strong they are and what skills they might have is a good way to predict how things are going to be." He explains.

Irina listens carefully to Klaus' words. "You mean we should find out their cultivation levels and what techniques they might have before attacking?"

"Yes." He nods.

Klaus already has a good idea of how cultivation can strengthen a person since he fought people from the Novice and Warrior Realms in the Bronze Skull Sect.

He also has a notion of a Martial Lord's power from his fight with Shadya, but due to her mixed feelings and that boosted state, he doesn't know precisely how much people from the Martial Lord Realm can really be.

And the most challenging part is understanding how to compare his power with other people's since he has a lot of strength beyond his cultivation, which can add to or multiply his total power.

Anyway, that's not really a problem for Klaus as he can always rely on his incredibly accurate instinct, which can tell him how dangerous an enemy is.

Irina, on the other hand, can only rely on her magical sense to analyze other people's cultivation, and for that, it is necessary to be at a certain distance from them.

"I can't feel their cultivation from so far away yet." She comments as she looks at the people in the camp.

"They don't look like a big deal." Klaus' instincts are pretty calm, so he knows there are no high threats around.

Irina looks at the vampire with a thoughtful expression. "You have pretty potent senses, right? Maybe you can sense their cultivation from here."

"And how do you do it?" He asks.

She explains. "Cultivation creates an aura around people, and although it can be best felt when they are fighting or using skills, you can also feel it even when they are relaxed if you concentrate enough."

"I will try." Klaus looks at the people in the camp as he focuses his senses; he can hear what those people are talking about, feel their smells and even the beating of their hearts.

He also notices the aura that Irina mentioned and tries to describe it. "Four of them look as strong as that necromancer called Zadok... the others look a little weaker."

Irina tries to remember how strong Zadok was. "Hmm, so those four strongest ones are in the Warrior Realm, probably early or middle stages; and the others are Martial Novices yet?"

Before Klaus can respond, the fairy scoffs. "Do they really want to hunt my people near the border with such a weak group??"

"Humans are fools, so they make good prey." Klaus chuckles.

"Yep, this will be easy." Irina can't wait to start smashing those humans.

"Not so fast." But Klaus holds her arm as a sinister smile appears on his face. "Since they are slavers, let's scare them a little first."

"Great idea!" Irina smiles too, but she always looks adorable anyway.

Klaus can't resist kissing her lips before turning his attention back to the camp. "Let's do it this way, you go one way, and I go the other, so you wait for my signal to show up..."

After planning the course of action, Irina sneaks through the shadows towards the right side of the camp while Klaus goes left.

The vampire keeps his senses focused on the group of humans, and he hears when the woman named Dairin walks away from the campfire and goes toward some ruins and rocks to the south.

Klaus knows that she is the only female in the group, which makes her the best meal for him.

He also knows that Irina would be pissed off that he enjoyed drinking that woman's blood, but since she couldn't see Dairin behind that rock, it wouldn't do the fairy any harm.

[It's just for her blood...] Klaus thinks to himself as he walks towards that rock.
