…
At the moment, the one who was facing the girl was Khal Barak. Even though he was rank 3, no one noticed it, so they were all focused on Rindher. For some reason, he could go under the radar of most people, even someone as perceptive as Lada.
As the girl that charged towards Khal and drew closer, she realized that he still hadn\'t done anything and was still standing without a stance or anything. The only thought in her mind was that her opponent had given up, or he was just that weak that he couldn\'t even follow her movements.
It was a straight forward situation really, so she decided to end the fight immediately with a stab to the heart.
As she got within a good distance, she made the motion to stab him, drawing one leg backwards while the one in front held a solid form on the ground, she brought one hand back, mirroring the hand that had stretched halfway in front, readying to thrust her short sword, aiming to stop moments away from piercing his chest.
With that intention, she struck, but just before her sword could stretch fully, the figure before her faded away and before she could react, she found herself tumbling on the ground. Her opponent went behind her to trip her, causing her to fall to the ground. Everyone watching was shocked as they hadn\'t expected such speed from Khal.
Even though all were surprised, not all saw what he had done, all they noticed was him disappearing and reappearing behind the girl, only to trip her.
Even in such an event, the girl\'s composure was the same, showing proper training. She bounced back to her feet, breaking the fall and bringing herself to a halt. She looked ahead, but this time, the man was no longer where he should be. Her eyes darted everywhere, but her opponent was nowhere to be found, at that moment, a warm hand touched the side of her neck in a chopping motion…
\'I lost…\' she thought to herself, dumb founded in fact as she had never seen it coming.
Every other person watched in shock as well, as even though they knew Khal was fast, they were still caught unawares and couldn\'t exactly follow his speed.
\'Who\'s this guy? Never heard of him before.\' Rindher thought to himself as it was a natural reaction before he could even think it through. After all, he could be from anywhere, even a place far away, the world was a big place, and that was particularly true about theirs.
After defeating the girl, Khal turned to Lada for confirmation, to which she did, asking him to step back.
After Khal, Ralwa, the only girl amongst the six vampires stepped forward to challenge one of the girls. Like Khal, she overwhelmed her opponent and came out victorious, though not in such a classy way like Khal.
After her, there was no other fight.
They all stood in a line facing Aldritch who gave a short and decisive speech… well, something like a closing remark. Even then, his words cut like sharp knives through the air and were understood loud and clear.
"Keep in mind, I will, without batting an eye discard you if you try to runaway stupidly or prove to be useless. Welcome to the Hellsing family." He said before leaving.
Aldritch left alone with Lada while the rest stayed back to chat with the new vampires. The duty of guiding the new vampires fell on their shoulders as the older ones, so naturally they had to do it, willingly or not. Luckily, they were willing. Read now on m_vl_em_p_yr
As Aldritch walked back with Lada, she reported an interesting piece of news to him. The guard at the academy gate had asked of him through Maggie. According to Lada, Maggie had observed that the guard was not ordinary, both in strength and disposition and was probably a spy from elsewhere just like Maggie.
"What brought upon the suspicion?" Aldritch asked.
"Well, there had been several occurrences, but the most recent and most important is the fact that he had denied seeing you pass through the gate on your way out, no soldier of the kingdom would do that, nor one stationed at the academy."
"I see, but why would he ask of me? Has the search gotten that serious and wide spread?" Aldritch asked curiously, not expecting any answer in particular, but Lada seemed to always have just the right information for every question.
"Even though something of that magnitude happened, the academy is keeping everything under wraps. The reason for this is purely political, if it won\'t be a bore, I will explain." She said.
"No need for lengthy explanations, just give me the important facts." Aldritch answered, not really wanting to listen to any stories.
"As you wish lord. The academy is certainly looking for you seriously, just not publicly and only within their ranks do they deploy manpower. This means you won\'t have to worry so much about them. For now, we can focus more on our important projects." She said.
"I believe you\'ve started, so I\'ll leave that to you. In the meantime, I\'ll pay Lodestar a visit. In the meantime, have someone prepare a bath for me so I can clean myself."
"As you wish, master." she said with apprehensive eyes fixated behind Aldritch, jus when a spark flashed across her eyes and a faint smile formed on her lips.
