Chapter 44 Technopathic Vampire

Seizing the moment, Jacob attempted to strike the vampire while it was momentarily disoriented from the failed attack. His regeneration ability had only just begun to manifest, so he wasn't able to heal instantly, but the faint glow of healing energy surrounded a few minor cuts on his arm.

Lysandra's movements were unpredictable, but he was beginning to anticipate its patterns.

In a daring move, Jacob feigned another dash backward but instead used the momentum to roll forward and deliver a solid kick to the vampire's chest. The attack landed, sending the shadow vampire stumbling backward. Still, the vampire was far from defeated, and its malevolent eyes burned with fury.

Yet, despite his determination, the shadow vampire's power was overwhelming. It was ancient, and its mastery of darkness seemed boundless. Jacob's regenerative abilities struggled to keep up with the onslaught of injuries he sustained, and his stealth and dash were far from seamless.
