Chapter 2 Taking Care On A Girl At Midnight

"Wh-who are you!?" asked the Thin Mustache Man as beads of sweat began to form on his forehead. The tone of speech that had always been made domineering before, now immediately plummeted as the Man in the Black Suit with his red eyes walked towards him.
"Ah, pardon my impoliteness. Introducing, I am Nathan De Dracula Kingsley, the one who's lost here..."
On the way, Nathan paused to introduce himself and bowed slightly with one hand touching his chest. At a glance, that terrifying aura suddenly disappeared as he introduced himself, but after he finished...
The three men shuddered again in fear.
This time the girl who was being held tightly by the two men just let go.
"If you guys don't want to introduce yourself, I won't mind it. However, may you all let the girl go?" asked Nathan who after waiting for a while did not get a response from the three people.
His neck stiffened to just look at the two men behind him, the Thin Mustache Man asked his two colleagues for opinions on what they should do now.
But apparently, he wasn't the only one who was afraid. The Thin Mustache Man is trying to think whether he will let go of the girl he has been eyeing for a long time or face all kinds of things that will soon happen to this man named Nathan.
Thinking quickly, the Thin Mustache Man finally decided to run after he couldn't stand the eerie aura he felt from Nathan.
"Hm... Weird people..." Nathan muttered in surprise.
The girl saw a slender hand stretched out to her, then she subconsciously responded to the outstretched hand. Suddenly, her body lifted and instead entered into the cold embrace of the Black Suit Man's chest.
"Now that it's safe, sleep in peace..."
Hearing a gentle whisper from a man, the girl was unable to maintain her consciousness and fell into a deep sleep. She was exhausted, both mentally and physically. It's a miracle she survived that long. When she got an umbrella that blocked the pouring rain in the summer, she was finally able to forget the pressure and rest in peace.
Nathan gently stroked the girl's long hair, he looked with concern at the girl's calm looking face with closed eyes. "I don't really understand what's going on. But seeing
her so scared, I thought she needed help. Hopefully, I didn't do anything wrong..." he mumbled after he looked the way the three men had left.
...
In the middle of the night, sitting in a chair by the side of a deserted road, Nathan used his thighs as cushions for the sleeping girl's headrest. As a Vampire Lord, he usually looked out of the window with a cup of tea in hand without moving for a whole day or even years.
This time, Nathan sat staring at the front where there was only an iron fence and not too thick trees inside. His red eyes make the insects that live behind the leaves feel awkward to do their activities. His hands from time to time gently stroked the long hair of the sleeping girl that fell to cover part of her black trousers.
As the moonlight began to appear from behind the clouds, the girl's eyes slightly trembled. Then, it slowly opened.
Paying no heed to the softness felt from the cushion, she squirmed after sitting back down. After rubbing her eyes, only then partially regained consciousness. The memory of a moment ago made her immediately turn her gaze towards a man who was sitting firmly beside her.
The girl didn't really care about the bad memories with the previous few men, but more importantly after the Man in the Black Suit who seemed to be the one who had saved her.
"Um... Excuse me, Sir?"
Not even called Nathan actually wanted to turn his head after seeing the girl wake up. "You are awake, Young Lady. How about the sleep?" he asked, smiling warmly, so that his red eyes were not too visible to the girl.
"Ah! Th-that... Very soundly..." replied the girl who looked shy, there was a pink blush on her face. But she lowered her head, so the Man in the Black Suit couldn't see her face.
The girl seemed to have realized that she was sound asleep without knowing anything her physical body was doing while her consciousness was in a dream, whereas there was a handsome grown man sitting beside her waiting patiently.
"That's good then. Seeing that it's so late, it is quite dangerous for a girl to walk alone, especially in such a lonely place. Will Young Lady allow me to accompany you home? Besides, I would like to ask you a few things during the trip..."
Before answering, the girl checked her body, whether the Man in the Black Suit had done anything dirty or not. However, everything was safe, she could breathe a sigh of relief. 'For now, I think this Man in the Black Suit I can consider a good man, huh?' she muttered to herself.
"Okay, I think so too..."
The two of them started walking not long after, because it was indeed late, even now it was starting to enter the early hours of the morning. The air was so cold, it was only a few moments after the two of them started walking home, the girl seemed to shudder with cold.
Nathan who saw it did not really understand the girl's behavior because indeed he would not be disturbed by natural conditions, but for some reason he felt the need to lend her his black suit to cover the girl's body who was only wearing ordinary clothes. Then, he opened it and put it on the girl, much to her surprise.
The girl looked at Nathan's face, that's when she realized that this very handsome face had fiery red eyes. But somehow she didn't feel scared or anything, she just smiled at him. "Thank you..."
Nathan turned his head and just smiled sweetly.
"Oh yeah, earlier you said to me you wanted to ask a few things, maybe now's a good time to, um... out from this awkward moment?" the girl seemed to think for a moment before starting to introduce herself after remembering that the two had not introduced themselves.
"My name is Alina, who is this Sir Savior, if I may know?"
"Miss Alina can call me Nathan..."
After that brief introduction, Nathan asked her a few things.
"We are currently in Pearl City, in the province of the Sunda Empire, and it is still part of the Maritime Country. Although the name of this city sounds beautiful, but here it is indicated that it will be a very dangerous place at an unknown time. However, somehow people think, this city is getting more and more invaded by foreigners..." explained Alina who answered Nathan's question.
"What danger will this Pearl City have?
"That's right, here it is detected to be a place where many Monster Gates will appear at one time, like a big wave suddenly coming..."
"Then how do people know that something dangerous is going to happen here? Is there anyone who can predict the future?" asked Nathan again, he who is a Vampire Lord alone can't see for a second the future.
"Not fortune-telling, rather taking into account all kinds of phenomena that occur in magical energy in nature..."
"I see..." Nathan held his chin digesting the information he had.
Alina said, this world is called Earth, in 2034 at this time. When Nathan asked the name of this world before, Alina had a big question mark above her head, but she still answered the question with pleasure.
12 years ago was the first Monster Gate appeared and became the forerunner of change on Earth. Since then, people who initially believed in magic was just a fantasy, now they can also use it. In fact, technologically advanced weapons have been combined with this magical energy, in order to become a useful weapon against the monsters behind the Monster Gate.
"Does Miss Alina know about the existence of vampires and werewolves?" Nathan didn't hear any vampires or werewolves being mentioned in it as long as he heard Alina's explanation regarding this place. So, he decided to take the initiative to ask her.
