Chapter 9: Cheat code

"Holy shit! HOLY FUCK! HOLY SHIT!" I can't stop cursing for a hot second as I run away while a big pack of werewolves chase after me, yet I can somehow outrun them even though I feel barely faster than my previous self. Yet one thing was for sure: the warehouses wanted me dead as they kept on shooting arrows and spears toward me, missing by a hair every time.

"Come back here, little girl! We just want to talk!" The man who molested my mother to death suddenly tells me the same thing he told my mother right before beating the crap out of her; I obviously wasn't going to believe anything they told me, not even for a second.

"You want to play games, do you? Fine, here is one for you!" The man screams while casting some sort of spell my way, which I try to avoid, but I can't as it hits me, yet once the attack lands, I don't feel a thing that takes everyone by surprise, including the werewolves. "What the fuck?"

I stop running as soon as I notice how that magical power beam just vanishes after hitting my body. The following werewolves soon try to deploy even more magical attacks on me, but every single one of their moves simply vanishes as soon as it comes anywhere near me.

"So you're immune to magic! So what!? You're still just a stupid vampire!" The man who beat up my mom shows himself first by trying to surprise me with a sneak attack from the shadows, yet I can see it all too well for some reason as if my eyes could see a little faster than usual.

My whole body wasn't like that of an average person; my reflexes and muscle speed were highly sharp to a regular human, which was made clear when I could easily dodge the werewolf's sneak attack like I had seen it coming from miles away.

"Why do you even care I exist? Am I like a big threat to you or what?" I ask the men now surrounding me while I try to keep eyes on all of them, who seem a little more reasonable for whatever reason; the only thing that stopped me from running was the fact that I didn't know where the hell I was even running to, for all I knew I could be going somewhere worse.

"You a threat to us!? AHAHA! Did you hear that shit, boys!?" One of the werewolves mocks, following a swift and sharp move I can barely dodge in time; otherwise, it would've been able to trip me over. "You're more like a tax your mother refused to pay up; you see, your blood already belongs to our government; you'll make us all stronger once you die."

Another werewolf man says behind me, taking me by surprise. This time, his sneak attack lands on my left shoulder, causing light bleeding in the tip of his spear, which he sadistically licks off with his tongue to show me they were all serious about killing and eating me. Man, this was worse than being sexually trafficked.

"Oh, man! The taste of young vampire blood is the best! It's so delicious!" Another man soon pokes me with his spear as well, this time hitting my right thigh, which only seems to cause everyone a laugh as they probably think I'm done for. "Give up girlie. There's no way you can win."

I was surrounded by werewolves who wanted to turn me into a BBQ dish in a circle position that disfavored me without a weapon or magical powers to fight back. In the eyes of many, I was right in the perfect spot to die, but I thought of it differently; since they were all in a circle, I could cause them to hit each other, couldn't I?

"Enough foreplay! I claim the bitch's heart!" "I want her brains!" The werewolves soon all rushed me simultaneously, giving me the perfect window to jump back as fast and as hard as I could, avoiding their collective attack, which does cause friendly fire injuries but not so many to disable all of them.

Yet something was weird as some of the werewolf's blood splattered over my face. I felt strange as if the taste of fresh blood had called me. Once I place my fingers over my face and clean up the blood with them, I naturally put my bloodied fingers on my mouth, suddenly opening my eyes even wider; I could see everything so clearly as if it was daytime.

My heart began pumping blood even faster through my body, and my sweat glands opened wider than ever as the rush of fresh blood awakened and heightened every sense in my body. "Oh fuck she's going to be a problem now" "Not if we jump her, she won't!"

Two of the prominent werewolves try to take my surprise with their prolonged movement and reaction times that are so easily dodgeable that I don't even feel like moving out of the way too much. Just a step aside was enough, but also perfect as my nails managed to pierce through one of them, giving me access to even more fresh blood.

My eyes glean an even deeper, brighter scarlet color, which would probably look menacing in the middle of a dark night like the one we were on now. "You have no idea how many of you will die if you kill us, do you?" One of the werewolves threatens me with the death of others like me, yet since I didn't even assimilate into this new society, I don't even flinch at that.

"And? Do you think I care about others? You already killed my mother. I want nothing but your blood," All of the werewolves began to walk back ever so slightly whenever I walked one step their way; it was evident by the looks of things that vampires were not supposed ever to fight them back, but I didn't give a damn, so what if people die? I don't want to die myself. Should I just surrender because of them? These people don't even know me!

Call me an asshole or whatever, but I had a way of doing things that always involved looking out for number one first and then caring about the rest, and at the moment, caring for the collective wasn't as crucial as saving my own flesh from being turned into a sausage.

"Light beam!" "Light beam!" The remaining werewolves try to summon light spells against me, which they had clearly forgotten wouldn't work, and to my surprise, they don't as their magical attacks simply vanish as soon as they come within two meters of me, almost like I had some sort of barrier around me.

"Fuck! We can't kill her! RUN!" The werewolves soon turn around to run away from me, leaving me in the middle of the forest, laughing like a psychopath. So I can't be affected by my magic powers because I can't have access to magic? The key toss-ups might be more beneficial than bad; if this world relies on magic so much, then having an anti-magical barrier active around me at all times is a massive cheat code.

I couldn't be affected by magical powers because I couldn't use them myself; it was such a fantastic trade-off that had saved my life tonight. So those light beams were supposed to kill me just like that, uh? It made sense that vampires never fought back if all it took was a light beam for the enemy to kill you.
