Nathan coldly said, “Enough with your nonsense.”
With that, he took a step forward and threw a Military Punch at Antonio's chest.
In the blink of an eye, Antonio sensed the looming threat of death.
The man let out a shriek before channeling all his strength into every part of his muscles, fortifying himself as he prepared to take on Nathan's punch.
Additionally, glimmering halos emerged around his body, seemingly forming a magical barrier that protected him.
Boom!
Nathan swung his punch at Antonio's chest.
As soon as Nathan's punch touched the barrier, the barrier shattered in an instant, and Nathan's fist landed firmly on Antonio's chest.
Nathan's fist effortlessly penetrated Antonio's body.
Antonio's body stiffened as he stood rooted to the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.
As Nathan retracted his fist, Antonio slowly lowered his head and stared at the fist-sized hole on his chest in disbelief.
“Impossible. This is not real...” Antonio mumbled as he couldn't accept what had happened.
“I'm a rare genius among the vampires. I may be just a viscount, but I'm as strong as an earl. This is impossible! How did a puny human like you punch right through a vampire's body? This is not real...”
As much as he was unwilling to accept the truth, Nathan had still punched right through his body and simultaneously destroyed his heart.
Even if he was a vampire, a being with immense vigor, there was no way he would survive without his heart.
Hence, little by little, his life slowly ebbed away as his consciousness disappeared as well.
In the meantime, Nathan emotionlessly said, “Remember my advice. Know your limits in your next life. Make sure you're strong enough before trying to lure someone, or you'll end up like this when you happen to catch a deadly shark with your bait.”
Hearing Nathan's words, Antonio widened his eyes indignantly. His expression indicated that he was not only aggrieved but also enraged.
Nathan immediately recognized the driver and said with a sigh, “You're such a busybody. Do you know that it never ends well for people who like to pry into someone else's business? Anyway, it's good that you're still around. My friend is badly hurt, so we need you to take us to the hospital.”
A friend?
The driver stole a glance at the beautiful lady in Nathan's arms. As much as he was intrigued and eager to know more, he dared not ask any questions. He hurriedly said, “Okay, okay. I'll get the car and send you guys to the hospital.”
Soon after, Nathan and Ava quickly got into the taxi and left.
Almost as soon as they took off, a black bat descended from the sky. It circled the castle several times before landing in the garden and turning into a charming young man.
The young man had a frown on his face when he walked into the main hall of the castle.
The frown on his face deepened after he saw the vampires' corpses scattered around in the hall.
His expression changed drastically when he caught a glimpse of Antonio's lifeless body. He murmured to himself, “Oh my gosh. Someone actually slaughtered us vampires and even killed Antonio. I must inform the higher-ups about this. The entire vampire clan would be in turmoil after hearing about this.”
