Vampire God in the Apocalypse

Chapter 37: 37. suspect



"You... I know you killed those people. The thing I don't understand, is why." Leo stood straight and looked at Dexter.

"What makes you think that I killed them?" Dexter raised a brow.

"I searched your bag and saw the bottles of blood inside. Also, the time after we fought the queen bee, I saw your body absorbing it's blood after you passed out." Leo said with a cold expression. "And the marks on their body... it could be your claws."

Dexter then remembered passing out after striking the bee with his lightning and after that he didn't remember what happened.

"Now. You better explain to me, before I kill you myself." Leo stretched out his hand and the black sword he got from the queen bee's adventure appeared in his hand.

"I didn't do it. Although I'm a vampire, I've never drank human blood before." Dexter said as he looked at the ground.

"What?" Leo was confused.

Dexter looked at him with a raised brow as he replied, "You didn't hear? I'm a vampire."

Leo then began to chuckle.

"Hehe... alright, stop playing and talk something reasonable. Else I'll kill you right now." Leo's voice became cold.

Would you believe if someone walked up to you and said, 'Hey, I'm a vampire.'

Exactly.

Dexter just laughed at the situation. Leo obviously didn't know who was stronger amongst them so he didn't blame Leo.

"Calm down and think about it. Sun sickness, blood filled bottles, advanced speed and senses, the claws, were all those things not enough to make you believe me." Dexter said with a expressionless face.

"A... Vam... I..." Leo didn't know what to say as he began to put all the details together and then he began to put the pieces together.

What Dexter said made sense. But how?

"Bu... but ho... how? Why?" Leo stuttered.

Dexter sighed and then began to explain why and how he became a vampire, how he was given vampire blood as a reward and why he had to drink it.

Dexter then told Leo how the craving has been torturing him to give in and Leo was shocked to hear about the craving in details.

"And you're okay with it? Being a vampire, I mean." Leo asked, unable to believe that Dexter still had motivation to find his family.

"I'm not ashamed of being a vampire. If I were to choose, whether to die and abandon those I care about, or to become a vampire and stay with them, I would naturally choose to become a vampire." Dexter said as he closed his eyes. "Even if the craving gets uncontrollable sometimes, for them, I'll bear any level the craving."

Leo then smiled as he dismissed the sword in his hand.

"Damn. I didn't know how it would feel for a family guy." Leo said as he came close and out a hand on Dexter's shoulder.

He grew up abandoned by his parents after all. In the orphanage, he was mostly alone. But he could imagine becoming a vampire when he had Rina and Zain.

The way Dexter described it, he wasn't sure whether he could bear the same thing. The craving sounded very ominous and horrifying.

He admired Dexter's willpower.

"Don't worry. I won't tell anyone." Leo said and Dexter looked at him with a raised brow.

"Even if you tell them. The worst thing that could happen would be to make me leave the camp." Dexter shrugged and Leo chuckled at his words.

"So when are you going to melt the dome?" Dexter asked Leo as he saw that they were still within the ice dome.

"Oh. I can't melt it. I can only create it." Leo said as he touched the dome. "And I made it very thick. Almost half a metre."

Dexter then sighed as he gestured for Leo to step back.

He clenched his fists, focusing his spirit energy and lightning began to surround it. He the punched the dome with all his force.

*BOOM!*

The dome broke as Dexter's fist collided with it and a large portion exploded due to the lightning which Dexter used.

Leo was amazed at Dexter's strength as he would have to use a weapon to achieve that.

"You were even stronger than me." Leo then reasoned that he made a fool of himself earlier.

"Also, I don't know what you did, but Rina has really been into me." Leo said like a happy child.

"I didn't... do... anything..." Dexter's words slowed as he began to remember something.

"What?" Leo asked.

"I... I might have compelled her." Dexter said, scratching the back of his head which suddenly began to itch.

"Compel? Like hypnosis?" Leo asked.

"Yeah. But I'm sure I didn't look into her eyes for long." Dexter put a hand on his chin as he struggled to vividly remember.

"Well. I like things how they are so let it be." Leo said and they emerged from the dome.

They both stopped as they saw soldiers surrounded the dome, with guns pointed at them.

Zain, Rina, Chapman, Laurence, Johnny and other soldiers were all there.

...

Chapman was busy reminiscing on how he lost his daughter when the tiran impact began and that's when a loud sound reached his ears.

*BOOM!!*

The building shuddered and he became agitated.

'What's going on this time?' He hurried down stairs to see Beatrice already going to the soarce of the sound, calling soldiers to come with her and Zain and Rina too followed while the people ran to their small houses to hide from whatever entered into the camp.

Seeing soldiers and even the head of the camp worsened their fears and some of them already thought it was the end.

Chapman saw the broken dome and began to see two silhouettes within and he immediately signaled the soldiers to surround it.

On the floor were ice blocks of varying sizes which released frost and the captain wondered whether it was a monster.

"What?" Colonel Chapman was shocked to see Leo and Dexter come out of the dome laighing happily.

He then walked towards them with a gun in his hand before pointing at them.

"What's my name?" He asked with a stern tone.

Understanding the situation and seeing the gun in his hand they replied.

"Chapman."

"Colonel Chapman."

Dexter and leo said respectively.

Chapman then sighed as he looked back at the soldiers.

"False alarm!"
