The great hall had barely settled into silence when a heavy footstep echoed from the corridor.
Adam, who was looting the vault, had already sensed the arrival of two people. But just as he sensed the second person, the presence vanished like a ghost. It made him all the more wary.
He arrived in the great hall of the fortress. Though he had a carefree smile on his face, inside he was very serious.
Across from him, Holstein emerged from the darkness. The vampire was enormous. His black cloak clung tightly over his body, his pale face expressionless. Strapped to his back was a greatsword and a heavy axe.
Adam studied the vampire for a few moments. He planned to stall for some time to try and locate the other person who had suddenly vanished.
He exclaimed, "Man, you are big!"
Then he looked around the hall, though his Sphere of Resonance had already spread in all directions, and murmured, "I was sure there was another one of youse. Now where—"
Holstein suddenly vanished.
