…
"Why not speed up the process?"
The more Azriel thought about it, the more he liked his idea. He then sat on the floor before he grabbed the Night watcher's body and started sucking his blood.
The bloody scene would normally be very horrifying; however, combined with that delightful expression Azriel had on his face, the scene looked a little weird…
Or maybe that delightful look made it even more horrifying.
After he sucked every drop of the blood, he cleaned his face and rushed toward the centre of the village.
"AAAGGhhhh!! Everyone! Come Out! There's an emergency!! Come Out quick! They are dead! They are all dead!"
Azriel shouted in panic.
A few seconds later, a middle-aged man rushed out of his house and questioned.
"What happened? Who are you and why are you shouting?"
"I am a guest at Mr Burns's house! We don't have the time to think about it! Just listen to me! Call everyone! They are dead! And we might be the next target!"
Azriel answered in panic, and hearing him saying a familiar name and his panicked expression along with the dried blood on his clothes, the man started calling others as well.
A few minutes later, everyone in the village was out of their homes and were standing in front of Azriel.
Some of them were concerned, while some were just out to see some drama.
"Everyone is here; can you tell us what happened now?"
A strict looking man questioned.
Azriel's blood-red eyes shined when he glanced at the man and his information appeared in front of him.

…
He was Harlow, the Village head and the strongest man of the Lockwood Village. Not that his 'strength' amounts to much when it is compared with the real strength.
"Follow me!"
Seeing that everyone was there, Azriel started running in the direction of that alleyway at a speed at which other humans could catch up with him.
A few minutes later, everyone saw the dead bodies lying on the floor and their eyes widened in disbelief.
"What!?"
"When did this happen!?"
"They are all dead?"
Harlow and a few men quickly rushed toward the bodies and were horrified when they noticed the conditions the bodies were in.
"W-What the hell happened here?"
"T-Too scary… look, their bodies are all shrivelled up"
"Their flesh has started decaying as well…"
While the men discussed, Harlow turned towards Azriel and questioned.
"Do you know what happened here?"
"Have you heard the rumour?"
Azriel questioned with a solemn look that somehow looked very eerie.
"What Rumour?"
"Rumour about a Vampire who is out there killing humans"
"Haa! Killing humans? A Vampire? Are you out of your mind?"
Another brawny man stepped forward and laughed disdainfully.
"I am not lying; I even know the name of that Vampire"
"What's his name?" Harlow questioned as he narrowed his eyes.
"Azriel Ruinous."
Azriel answered with a small smile.
Seeing that smile, a woman frowned before she finally realized something and shouted in horror.
"Wait! Pale Face, Red Eyes… You look exactly like those Vampires! W-Who are you!?"
Suddenly, Azriel's small smile turned into a crazed one, his blood-red eyes shined as he replied.
"Oh? Did I not introduce myself? How impolite of me.
My name is Azriel Ruinous"
He then glanced at the brawny looking man and his crazed smile widened even more.
"And I can assure you"
Azriel then disappeared from where he stood and appeared in front of the brawny man before he unleashed a powerful punch and the brawny man's head burst out.
*Splash*
"That the rumours are true."
Then as if he has not just killed one of the villagers with his bare hands, Azriel smiled before he crouched and picked up the nightguard's sword.
"Now, let's spread these rumours shall we?"
With a smile, Azriel slashed his sword and beheaded Harlow, the 'strongest' man in this village.
*Slash*
With the same crazed smile, Azriel rushed toward the other villagers and,
"AAAGHHH!! HELP!"
*Slash*
"Please Don't kill m-"
*Slash*
"No!"
*Slash*
"You Bastar-"
*Slash*
He continued killing the villagers as if they were nothing more than vegetables placed there to be slaughtered by him.
Keep in mind, in no way was Azriel an expert in swordsmanship, actually, he could even be called a newbie. However, the villagers were too weak to withstand his sword and died without any resistance.
Panic ensued among the villagers. Some tried to fight back with whatever they had while some started running away.
"Hahaha! How can a Vampire kill humans right? What happened now? Why are you humans running away from a Vampire? What? Can't defeat us when we aren't poisoned?"
The big crazed smile that he had on his face made this scene even more horrifying.
With his powers being far stronger than these humans, Azriel dealt with the villagers who were trying to fight with him in a minute and then started chasing the humans who were running away.
The villagers who saw him chasing them started panicking and one woman, who was carrying her child fell and her child started crying.
"Whwaaa! Whwaaa!"
"Please! Please! I beg you! You can kill me, but please let my child go!"
The woman begged with tears all over her face, however, Azriel did not seem to have even the slightest mercy in him.
"Yeah? Do you know what you humans did with our vampire children? You enslaved them and tortured them for the rest of their lives! I believe I am already merciful enough that I am giving you a quick release!"
*Stab*
Azriel bellowed in hatred before he impaled his sword into her child's heart without any hesitation.
"NOOOO!!! AAAGHHHHhhh!!!"
"Y-You are a Monster!"
The woman replied, her eyes filled with tears of rage and sorrow.
*Slash*
Azriel then slashed his sword and beheaded the woman.
"I am a Monster Indeed."
