Chapter 73 Ch 71: Trouble Comes In All Packages [Pt2]
Of course, the base of the demonic group turned out to be an old and abandoned factory center. Yohan was not sure why he had thought it to be something else.

The New Subordinate Location was unlocked. Loading area map……

Yohan looked at his system which was loading the screen. It had been some time since he had seen it so active.
Usually, his system only came to help Yohan when he was either desperate or wanted its help. That had made life a lot more convenient for him and also made him sometimes forget that he had the system.
Not to mention, sometimes his system decided to have an attitude problem which made Yohan want to throw it away. It was no wonder he wanted to use his system as less as possible.

The system does not have an ‘attitude’ problem. The user just doesn't appreciate its humor. It is the user’s fault for not appreciating the great being that is this system.
________________________
This was what Yohan meant. And this was the reason he liked to not use his system anymore.
Not that he needed it much nowadays. He was plenty powerful even without any external help.
“EVERYONE, I AM BACK WITH THE BOSS. THERE IS NO NEED TO FEAR ANYMORE.”
The vampire who had escorted Yohan and Zane to the base yelled out into the empty hallway. But no one replied to him.
Yohan could smell a lot of blood inside the empty hallway and he was about to head in there when he was stopped by Zane.
“Let me go out and check the condition inside first. There might be some hunters inside, waiting to ambush us as soon as we walk in.”
Yohan was about to say that he could defend himself without any help but he forced himself to stop. It was just in Zane’s nature to worry about Yohan so there was no point in getting angry at him.
So instead of arguing with Zane about this silly topic, Yohan decided to go along with this lead. Just because Zane had asked Yohan not to search inside did not mean Yohan had to sit around jobless.
“I will let you check the inside perimeters. Come and fetch me once you are done looking around.”
Zane glared at Yohan, noticing the wording his king had used. He could tell that his king was thinking of taking unnecessary risks but he let him off the hook for now.
Instead, Zane nodded toward the vampire who had accompanied them to look after Yohan. He was concerned about Yohan but that did not mean Zane could restrict his master’s freedom.
That small interaction did not go unnoticed by Yohan. But he let both Zane and the vampire live in their happy thoughts.
As if the vampire would be able to stop Yohan if he wanted to do something. The vampire would be shredded into ribbons if he dared to go against Yohan even once.
“Then, I will be back soon. Don’t get yourself into trouble.”
“I won’t so you can rest assured Zane.”
Yohan waved Zane off and watched him enter the blood-soaked building. Only once Zane was out of his sight did Yohan turn around and started walking around the building.
He could smell another patch of dress blood not too far away from the main base building. He had a feeling he would find something interesting if he followed that smell.
“H-Hey, where are you going? Boss said to stay put-”
“No. Yohan said to not get in trouble. But I won’t get in trouble so there is no need to worry about me.”
Yohan was in a good mood so he replied to the vampire. Had he not been in such a generous mood today, then the vampire would have ended up being torn to shreds.
The vampire had no idea how lucky he had gotten because of Yohan’s good mood today.
“System, if you are done scanning, then show me the area map and the location of this fresh kill.”

So now the user wants my help? Why should I help the user….ehhh, spare me
________________________
The map loaded without problem after that, and Yohan’s system went quiet as well. It had all been possible because Yohan had used his aura to subdue it.
He did not know how or why, but his aura was the best weapon to use against his system when it started causing Yohan trouble.
“Hey leach, if you are going to follow me then so it is at your one risk. Don’t expect me to turn around and save you.”
Yohan warned as he broke into a light jog. According to his map, the location of that fresh kill he could smell was still a little further away.
“D-Don’t expect me to not keep up. I n-need to show B-Boss that I am a c-capable person. B-Boss is the greatest demon.”
The Vampire seemed to hold an unhealthy amount of respect and obsession for Zane. it was both amusing and disturbing for Yohan to see.
But in the end, he did not care how this vampire saw Zane or how he behaved with Zane.
As long as this vampire did not become a hindrance to him, Yohan was willing to accept him and let him tag along.
“Fine. If you have already made up your mind then do try to keep up. I am not going to wait for a weakling.”
Yohan picked up speed, not even looking back at the panting vampire. The nearer he went to the killing site, the heavier it got. Air was getting denser as well and the energy zapping across the forest was increasing in density.
It was a sign that thier opponent was not a weakling and Yohan would need to exert some effort to capture him alive.

Warning. A huge surge of magic is headed toward the user. The user is advised to duck to avoid any clash.

Yohan ignored his system as he headed directly toward the heart of the magical explosion. He was going to not only embrace it but also going to defeat it outright.
The magic energy that was building up in front of Yohan looked to be rippling. He was interested to see how much of that supply he would be able to endure.
“Oi, if you want to live then you should duck now,”
Yohan warned the vampire who was trying to keep up with him. He had not issued this warning because he was considerate of the vampire following behind him, but because he did not want the vampire to interfere with his fight.
“Huh? What do you-?”
The vampire instinctively ducked as the magic finally reached them. It was a blast of lightning that was ripping the air apart. But somehow, it managed to avoid all the flora in its wake.
The animals were not that lucky. It was only affecting a section of living creatures.
Yohan gathered his magic in his fist and punched the magic light as soon as it was near his body. The clash caused the space to become distorted but Yohan was unharmed once the magic subsided.
It had been a strong spell since it had left a tingling sensation in Yohan’s knuckles. He could feel his heart beat in excitement at meeting a strong opponent.
“H-How did you not die after tackling all that energy? Are you even human?”
The vampire asked from the ground, his eyes going wide in wonder as he finally looked at Yohan in the new light.
But Yohan was not concerned about the vampire currently. He was focused on the sound of footsteps he could hear heading toward him.
Someone was walking toward him with soft steps and Yohan knew when the other person picked up speed.
“Sword”
A small sword quickly appeared in front of Yohan which he used to block the attack that was being made on him. A small sword clashed with a big claymore-like sword.
He flinched at the force of the blow that was dealt to him. He had not expected to cross swords with such a strong human.
“You managed to block my attack. Then, does that mean I can go all out?”
Yohan did not get a chance to answer that question because the force pushing him increased its strength. With a twist of his wrist, Yohan finally managed to slip past the man in front of him.
The human who had attacked Yohan just continued to smile but he did notice a few peculiar features she had.
Her body was built like a thin tree branch, with not even a hint of a curve on her body. Had Yohan not heard her voice and felt her energy, he would have been convinced that this was a male standing in front of him.
With that huge sword at her side, the girl looked odd and out of place.
“What is wrong? Did I scare you? Come on, play with me some more.”
Light pink hair fluttered in the air as the thin girl rushed toward Yohan but Yohan had anticipated her attack. He easily managed to avoid her massive sword.
How such a thin human girl was able to pick and swing that huge sword of hers was a mystery to Yohan but he did not wait to feel the sting of that great sword. But Yohan knew that he had to be careful not to get hit.
