10 You are my prisoner (1/2)

Huang Qiuyan races as fast as she can. She doesn't look back or pause for words. There is no time. She has the advantage because she surprised them, but they are getting closer to her.

[System: Dear Host, I told you that it was a bad idea.]

”If you can't help me, then don't question my ideas,” She yells on the top of her lungs. She hears the sound of feet behind her. She is panicking inside her head. What should she do?

”I am not an assassin. That arrow is not mine,” She shouts, hoping that the vampires would hear her.

”If you are not an assassin, why did you escape the prison?” She hears a yell behind her. She doesn't know who it is. ”You should stop running if you aren't a criminal.”

”I am running because I am afraid of vampires and fangs,” She yells back.

At a considerable distance, Fu Sheng and his troupe hear the words. A vampire is afraid of vampires and fangs? There is such a thing in this world. There is no room for doubt anymore. That woman is an assassin. She must be created by the council and sent after them to kill them.

She boosts her speed. Ever since she levelled up, her senses and strength are stronger than before. She could detect approaching Fu Sheng. Her mouth salivates when she recalls the taste of his blood. She is tempted to stop and take a bite of him.

”Argh!” She is frustrated. If she stops, that man is likely to kill him. He is a real vampire. A real bad vampire. All of them wants to kill her.

[System: Dear Host, I am truly worried about you. How can you think about his blood at this moment?]

[Host: If you can't help me, just keep your mouth shut.]

[System: Dear Host, I don't have a mouth. I can sense the temperature drop.]

[Host: What?]

[System: Dear Host, go to your right. Keep running. Increase your pace. Trust me.]

”Trust you?” Huang Qiuyan laughs. ”You?”

[System: Dear Host, no time to explain. Run!]

She can sense Fu Sheng's cold eyes on her back. Her instincts urge her to run as fast as she can. She follows the System's instructions blindly. After a few turns, she reaches an open window.

[System: Host, you should jump now.]

[Host: What?]

Fu Sheng is amazed by her speed. She can run faster than most of his underlings. For a convert, that's remarkable. He isn't bothered about her escaping from the castle. Though there is a lack of guards, the only way out of the castle is by flying. A low-level convert can't do that yet.
