Chapter 202: Eternals

"Jack, why are you here?"

Wanda was indeed surprised to see Jack here, but it somehow made sense.

After her surprise, she realized the situation and lowered her head in embarrassment, stuttering, "Um... it's not like I wanted to come here... it was Pietro, He dragged me here."

She pointed towards Pietro, who was dancing madly with a hot girl on the nearby dance floor, shifting the blame onto him.

"Don't be mad at me, okay?"

Wanda anxiously looked at Jack, her tone filled with apology and panic, afraid that he would be angry.

"I'm not angry, really. You've grown up, and you have the right to decide what you want to do. In that respect, I hope you can learn something from Pietro."

Even though the music was loud, Wanda still heard Jack's words clearly.

"...But next time, it's better for you to go to more legal places. This... isn't a good place."

He caressed Wanda's head and said, "You both should go back. There are some things I need to take care of here."

After speaking, he looked at Sprite, who was standing nearby.

Sprite calmly looked back at him and was not surprised by his sudden appearance.

Wanda glanced at Jack, then at Sprite, seemingly understanding something.

She nodded and said, "Alright, but..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the ear-splitting music seemed to reach its end.

The men and women on the dance floor raised their hands and cheered, creating a creepy scene.

Pietro was so into what he was doing that he did not seem to notice anything strange.

Jack looked up at the DJ on the stage, who had a white cloth hanging from his body with a word written on it in red liquid resembling blood.

"Bloodbath!!"

The DJ frantically spread his arms, and the dance floor cheered.

Pietro finally sensed that something was wrong.

He tried to leave but was terrified to find that everyone around him was staring at him, their eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty.

Splat!

At that moment, the fire sprinklers on the ceiling suddenly sprayed, but instead of water, it was blood that came out.

It wasn't some blood-like paint; it was real blood, exuding a strong bloody smell.

Pietro was covered from head to toe, a chill ran through his body, freezing his limbs and gut.

He looked around in panic, realizing that everyone was watching him.

They were covered in blood, their faces hideous, and the sinister smiles sent shivers down Pietro's spine, especially when he noticed the long fangs in their mouths.

He completely freaked out.

"Ah!!"

A piercing scream echoed through the dance floor, reaching the ears of the three.

But the scream suddenly stopped because Pietro had been knocked down to the ground.

Several people... vampires were punching and kicking him, not deadly blows but certainly painful.

"I told you."

Jack cupped his ears, seeming slightly uncomfortable with the noise, and said to the stunned Wanda beside him, "This isn't a good place."

"This... this..."

Wanda could hardly believe what she was seeing.

Was that... blood?

And those people, she even saw many of them greedily swallowing the dripping blood, making her feel gross.

...Could they be the legendary vampires?

"Wanda, you both should go back."

Jack gently tilted Wanda's stunned little head and kissed her forehead.

In the next moment, Wanda's figure disappeared, along with Pietro, who was being beaten on the dance floor.

Now, in a middle of a crowd of vampires, only Jack and Sprite, two normal humans... well, Sprite wasn't exactly normal.

However, two unfamiliar faces among a group of vampires drew their attention, and the vampires who had just lost their source of food slowly moved closer.

"Before we start talking, please wait a moment."

Jack gestured to Sprite, then looked at the approaching vampires. His eyes lit up, and immediately, two thick heat beams shot out.

Even if the vampires only lightly touched someone, they turned them into ashes immediately under the intense heat beams with a strong sun-like aura.

This sudden event set the whole place on fire, and the scared vampires ran in all directions, trying to get out of this terrible place.

However, when they realized they couldn't open the doors, it was already too late.

In an instant, the entire nightclub was left with only Jack and Sprite, the two surviving beings.

Sorry, I made a mistake. There was also a poor bartender.

"Can you please bring us four glasses of whiskey? Thank you!"

Jack very formally took out cash from his pocket and placed it in front of the trembling bartender, then turned to Sprite.

"Can you drink alcohol? After all, you've lived for thousands of years, so you should be of legal drinking age."

Sprite's face instinctively darkened.

Age was always a sensitive topic for her because she could never grow up.

But she quickly reacted.

Jack actually knew that she had lived for thousands of years.

"There are very few things on this planet that I don't know, kid."

As if seeing through Sprite's thoughts, Jack smiled and said, "Including your origins, your two friends planning to break in outside the door, the star-ship buried in Iraq, and... the big guy sleeping in the Earth's core."

The more Sprite listened, the more terrified she became.

This man seemed to have almost all their information, including the starship they arrived on Earth, their origins, friends, and...

What big guy sleeping in the Earth's core?

Sprite genuinely couldn't understand the last words.

The same reaction came from Icarus and Cersei outside the door.

Both of them heard Jack's words and were also astonished as Sprite.

Their existence was known by quite a few people, including Kamar-Taj, Asgard, and even S.H.I.E.L.D. had records related to them.

They couldn't help but wonder, how did Jack know all of this?

While Cersei was thinking, Icarus frowned.

"Hey, you two outside the door, are you coming in?"

The voice from inside snapped the two outside back to reality.

They glanced at each other, then pushed the door open and walked in.

Jack leaned against the bar, gently swaying the glass in his hand, looking curiously at the two.

"You went to a lot of trouble to get me here, so it must be important, right?"

"Tell me, I'm curious about why you came to find me. I should not care about you in any way."

"Oh, by the way!"

After finishing his sentence, as if suddenly remembering something, Jack slapped his forehead, and suddenly said.

"Could it be because of Thanos? He's an Eternal, and you are too. You'll be related. Let me guess, you know that I'm going after him and came here to stop me?"

"..."

"Isn't that right? Well, that's great. Otherwise, I'll have to figure out how to explain to Wanda why her new friend and teacher suddenly disappeared."

"..."
