Xor

Tokyo 2023

11 PM

In a towering building covered with glasses, the entrance hall was silent, opposite of what it should be on a holiday.

The white tiles on the floor had a red liquid flowing on them and the walls were also painted red as if someone had thrown buckets of blood on them.

The area was eerie and could send chills down anyone's spine that saw it, however, there was no one to witness it.

Intestines lay on the counter and many body parts were scattered around, covered with blood.

If one walked some more one could see a small mountain of mangled corpses and over the mountain sat a thin man with a giant smile on his face.

His hair was black like a raven and his eyes were like a deep pool of tar. A murderous aura surrounded the man's body and he was busy eating a heart that looked like a human one.

His canines were protruding from his mouth and his nails were like sharp claws. Creating deep imprints in the heart he was holding.

On the side of the corpse mountain lay a dead lady, her eyes soulless and there was a big hole in her chest as if someone had carved it out of her body.

The heart seemed to be taken from her.

"Girls taste better." The man on the corpse mountain chuckled suddenly and ate the remaining heart in a single go.

Outside the building stood seven girls in nun uniforms, there were crosses in their hands and they were chanting in a strange language.

"We have to cast this evil out of this world today!" Suddenly a middle-aged man in a white robe came forward, he looked at the building with his teeth clenched.

Beside the middle-aged man stood a small girl, about the age of fifteen. She looked at the building with her eyes glimmering, there was no fear in her eyes like others present.

"Dad, why can't we kill that Vampire?" She asked as she looked at the white-robed man.

The man turned his head and there was a powerless expression on his face. "He is too powerful Hana. We can only send him to another dimension and hope that he never comes back." The old man looked at the building again. "Or he will kill us all."

Hana turned her head and looked at the building. "Dad, why does this guy like to kill so much? Other Vampires only kill when they are hungry." She said.

She seemed to have a lot of knowledge about Vampires.

The middle-aged man raised his nose in anger and clenched his fist. "I don't know. He just like killing people. He even kills other vampires. I have never seen someone like him." He said and also took out a cross from his pocket.

"Dad when I get my Vampire hunting licence I will kill bad ones like him," Hana said with a determined expression.

The middle-aged man looked at her daughter and smiled. "You are a good girl Hana." He said he was proud of his daughter.

"Hana is a genius father. She will definitely become the strongest vampire hunter." One of the nuns said as she looked at the teenage girl.

Hana turned around and smiled at the nun. "Thanks, sister Sakura." She said.

The middle-aged man also acknowledged Sakura's words. He knew that his daughter was the most talented person he had ever seen.

At just the age of seven, she already learned five deadly spells and now at fifteen, she has even killed a high-level Vampire.

Although it was illegal to fight vampires before the age of eighteen, however, that Vampire attacked Hana first and got killed in a single attack in the end.

Hana was a thousand years anomaly, her magical powers were abundant and her learning power was even more extreme.

"This Vampire's name is Xor right?" Hana asked with a curious expression.

"His full name is Xorcal," Sakura said as she stared at the building with an angry face. "He kills without any rhyme or reason."

"Xorcal..." Hana murmured.

"Sisters! Let's extinguish this evil today! We have paid a huge price to get his real name, we have to send him away!" The middle-aged man yelled as he also started chanting while holding a cross in front of his chest.

All the nuns nodded and their eyes focused, they started chanting with even more fervour.

Hana on the other hand stood at the side silently, she was not here to participate, as she was still not at the legal age to hunt vampires so she was only gonna watch.

However, there was an excited expression on her face. She wanted to become a vampire hunter soon and extinguish evil vampires like Xor.

Inside the building, Xor stood up from the small mountain of corpses and jumped down.

His sharp gaze moved around the place looking for another prey. "There were no children here, they must be hiding on the upper floors." He murmured and looked at the ceiling.

However just as he looked up his eyes suddenly widened and he looked at the door of the building.

"What is this? Why is my heart beating so fast?" Xor placed his right hand on his chest and could feel his heart beating at a rapid pace.

"There is no way..." He slowly stepped towards the glass door of the building and when he saw out, his body turned still.

However, after a few seconds, a smile formed on his face. "So the time has come." He sighed and stepped out of the building slowly.

His black shirt and pants moved gracefully around his body.

Soon he stood in front of the group of nuns. His gaze moved and landed on the white-robed man standing in the middle of the group.

"How did you find out my real name?" Xor asked, his voice calm, however, there was a chilling pressure in his words.

"It doesn't matter! Today you will leave this place!" The white-robed man roared as a disdainful expression appeared on his face.

'So he is Xor...' Hana looked at the thin handsome man in front of her. His face was chiselled, his eyebrows were slanted, and he looked like the image of innocence and beauty.

However, what gave him away was his blood-covered mouth and his long canines.

"Shun...son...Xorcal..." The group raised the intensity of their chants.

Xor listened to them and sighed, he then moved his hand up and looked at his palm.

Woosh!

Suddenly his hand caught fire out of nowhere, however, there was no expression of pain on Xor's face, he just looked at his burning hand with a curious expression.

"Even my healing powers are not working." He murmured and soon his whole body caught on fire. And even then he stood at his place calmly.

His clothes burned and his thin chiselled body covered with fire came into view, he looked like a demon ascended from hell, standing calmly in his place.

Hana looked at the burning Vampire with a glimmer in her eyes. 'I will become the best vampire hunter one day.' A determined expression appeared on her face.

However, suddenly she felt a chilly gaze on her. She looked up and saw that Xor was smiling at her. His smile was warm and filled with kindness and love.

Raising his hand Xor waved. "Hello."

Hana looked at him with her brows furrowed, she never imagined that a killer demon like him could show such a warm smile.

'If he wants a goodbye wave then I will give him.' Hana smiled back and waved her hand too. "Goodbye, please be a good person in your next life." She said.

"Hana don't talk to him!" Sakura suddenly intervened while gritting her teeth.

"Why sister? He is dead anyway." Hana glanced at Sakura and then turned her gaze around again.

However, what appeared in her vision terrified her to the core. Xor was standing just in her face, his burning eyes looking deep down hers. There was the same amiable smile on his face.

She could feel a cold feeling in her chest and her head felt buzzy. Her head slowly moved down and her eyes widened in terror.

A burning hand pierced her chest!

"Ahhh..." Her shock settled and then she let out a loud yell of pain. "Dad save me!" She begged, however before anyone could react she felt her head on the ground.

She looked at her headless body in front of her and tears formed in her eyes. Xor has actually beheaded her in a single moment.

Hana was in deep shock as she saw the burning Vampire. She could feel her dreams of becoming a vampire hunter burning in Xor's eyes.

And his amiable smile, it suddenly looked devilish.

"I was such a fool..." This was her last thought before she was dead.

"Hana!" Sakura suddenly yelled as she dropped her cross and moved towards Hana's head. She took it in her lap and started crying loudly.

"You beast! She was a child!" Sakura yelled.

"Children have the best hearts." Xor chuckled and moved his hand out of Hana's chest, there was a charred heart in his hand, he moved it up and ate it in a single mouthful.
