My Vampire

Chapter 53: Toward the decisive battle

“....... I see. I knew they weren’t going to keep our promise, but it was sooner than I expected. I thought I had reduced the enemy's forces, but it looks like they're calling for backup too, and this time it looks like they're nasty hunters.”

Kamil chuckled and called Mikey.

“Mikey. Let's get this thing started. Evacuate the civilians and get them out of the country."

“Roger that. Then, we’ll start counter-terrorism measures. I’ve notified my dependents who are outside the country. I won’t let them do what they want. The ones who are being controlled by the church are the ones who have been drugged into insanity. I can smell it. I’m on it. I’m sure that it’s just a diversion. We’re the ones they’re really after.”

“Yes, I’m sure. Marc was talking about it. About the one behind the church."

“…well… I see. He’s probably right. Sadly.”

*I had called my brothers before and told them what I thought. The one behind the church…*

Then I got a call from my brother Kamil.

“They are going to break the ceasefire agreement. A War is coming. Your place isn't safe. Go back to Japan now!”

“Leave my brothers behind? We're his target, right?"

“But your…”

"Don’t worry about her. My dependent is excellent.”

“Well… then we’re going to attack the church's headquarters. I'm sure he’ll be waiting for us there."

“Got it. I'll be at your place when I'm ready. Mikey. With Dad gone, the only person we can count on is you. So, I’m counting on you.”

“I'm not that reliable of a brother. But I'll do what I can. I've got all the counter-terrorism measures in place. Each of my dependents is keeping a close watch on the hunters. I won’t let them get away.”

“I knew I could count on you! A-ni-ki.”

“Phew! I'll be waiting for you, Marc."

Just then, the phone rang. It was Kazuya!

“… Marc-sama. Are you going?…”

“Yeah, I’m going. Take care of Yuki.”

“Okay.”

I told Yuki that I was going to leave for a while, because the area where rescue is needed is going to be very extensive. She looked uneasy.

“Kazuya is here. Don't worry. Besides, he’ll will be in touch with me."

Saying that, I hugged her.

“I'll be back here soon and stay with you."

Yuki also wrapped her arms around my back and hugged me. I don’t want to get her involved in anything dangerous.

I’m sure it’s going to be our fight from now on. Vampires.
