Vampire God in the Apocalypse

"I'm sorry for leaving suddenly," Dexter said as he looked at all of them.

"Forget that, the question is 'why' did you leave so suddenly?" Tracy asked with a frown, and Dexter sighed as he relayed the story to them. Jane felt very sad, seeing that her son had to go through so much just because he was in a relationship.

"I still plan to go back, but I'm not strong enough. What's going on with them is not something I can interfere with now," Dexter said with a sad expression, and footsteps began to come near them. Tracy and the others were shocked to see a regular-sized horse which seemed to be shrouded with a black, ominous energy.

"I—I recognize this creature," Tracy said, and Lily too walked forward, but Jane was confused as to why a monster wasn't attacking them.

"I've not formally introduced him to you guys. This is Grim, a creature which I bonded with back when we were in Nigeria," Dexter said, and the horse looked at all of them before going back to devour the creature which he had just killed.

"So what are you going to do now? We're willing to do whatever," Kila finally spoke up, and Dexter nodded.

"For now, we just need to evolve as fast as possible. For all we know, the third stage of the Tiran impact could be anything, and it could come anytime. The supernatural creatures of this world have it easy, being already so powerful and given a high class at the start of the apocalypse," Dexter explained to them, and they all nodded with determination. Kila sighed before putting on a smile.

Even before the apocalypse, she was a lesser vampire as her master didn't have much time for her. But as for Dexter, who gave her just as much importance as the others, she felt a feeling of unspoken loyalty to him.

"Oi! There are people over here!" A voice rang out from the distance, and then Dexter looked to see a group of people walking towards them, all wearing black and holding fancy-looking equipment. The man in the front had a full bearded face with light skin. His head was bald, and he had an axe in his hand. There were about five people behind him, and he approached Dexter's group.

"My men said they watched the guy over there take down the creature we came to hunt. We thank you. It has been leading attacks in our camp, and we were about to engage when we got here and heard that it was already killed," the big man said and bowed slightly.

"Oh, no worries there then. But I thought there was only one camp in this country," Dexter expressed his curiosity. As a person with an eye for observation, Dexter couldn't recognize this entire team's members at all, which meant that the camp they are a part of is different from the one he came from.

"Oh, there are only two camps left. After the creatures began to bring down other camps, our original camp and a few others had to join hands to stand, and we've been fighting every day since then," the man said, and then he cleared his throat. "We would welcome people like you to our camp.

Unless, you guys have somewhere else to go, of course," the man said, and the members of his team shrugged, deciding that it was okay for the people they found to come with them back to the camp.

"Well, it's not like we have somewhere else to go," Dexter said to them, and they nodded. For some reason, Dexter could sense that these people in front of him were not of his level at all. He could see their spirit energy circulation, and it was not up to his. Only the big guy in front had similar strength to him.

"So where are you guys from?" the bulky man asked with a smile, trying to lighten the quiet mood. They all introduced themselves and talked while going back to their camp, and soon Dexter saw a large metallic gate leading into a place surrounded by tall fences going up to 50 meters tall, which looked like thick metal.

They walked to the front gate, and then he tapped on a few buttons, making a small portion of the gate open, and they all went in.

"Hm?" Dexter was surprised as, when they entered, he saw a lot of people with stalls lined up by the sides of the wide road which they walked through. There were items in each of these stalls; he even spotted one of them selling weapons and even skills.

"What the hell..." Dexter was in awe.

Seeing the newcomer's surprise, the leader of the team, Jack, decided to brief them. "Those are merchants who sell what they've gotten from killing monsters or brought from Heaven's Tower. They sell it for a greater amount of Heaven's Tower points so they make a profit. Everyone in this camp should be above level 15 by now," Jack said, and then it dawned on Dexter.

"Are you saying that everyone in this camp has surpassed weak human levels?" Tracy asked in shock, and Jack confirmed it. Dexter mused that setting up a stall and selling treasures was quite a profitable business. But to go to Heaven's Tower to get the items, they needed golden tickets. And to get golden tickets, they need to face creatures stronger than they can handle and triumph.

"What a scary camp," Dexter commented, and then they soon reached a place where an elderly man sat still while smoking.

"Old man, these are people I found wandering. They helped us to kill that dog that has been troubling us, so I brought them here," Jack said and then looked to the group. "Guys, this man here would handle your accommodations," Jack said, and then he left after giving a nod to the man who looked at Jack with a raised brow.

"Alright, one room costs 20,000 Heaven points," the man began, and Dexter smiled as he saw this coming.
