KING GULF
Chapter 32's

Bright turned around after hearing the voice behind him, the person looked at him with a smile. It's their first meeting and Bright can feel the pressure Nick puts on him.

"You... Nick?"

"Yes" Bright clenched his teeth with clenched hands. It feels like he wants to beat him up right now, but it won't be good. He himself will be killed.

...****************...

Bright and Nick are in the room where Nick has been living. Bright looked at the room which was a little strange and also displayed a large photo of Gulf.

"Just go. Whatdoyouwant?"

"I? Hahaha I'm just Mr. Weir's guest here"

"I already know everything. Including you're a vampire" Nick looked at her a little unexpectedly. The next second he smiled closer to Bright.

"You know I'm a vampire, but you still dare to accept my invitation? You're a brave man" Nick approaches Bright's neck to make him freeze, Nick's breath hitting his neck feels terrible.

"You know there's not just a vampire and a human. What do you think is gonna happen?" Bright fell silent in annoyance. He won't let Nick suck his blood. He also pulled out his sword which made Nick immediately move away.

"alright. Look at your king. Isn't she very pretty for a man's size?" Nick turned to look at him slowly approaching him, making him instantly stand by with his sword.

"I want it" he whispered up close.

Srett!

His sword slashed Nick's hand until blood began to pour. Nick looked at the wound that was starting to close back.

"Don't hope! When you want it, then your life will disappear. Get out of this palace, I don't think Weir can help you anymore. A vampire taking refuge in a human? Huhhhhh... I think I raised you too much" Bright went straight to leave Nick upset.

How could he be humiliated by a human being?

Kao approached.

"Sir why didn't you eliminate him? We can also take over this palace, Weir is already completely useless should we kill him" Nick clenched his hand. He was annoyed now, if he did not have a contract with Weir, already from the beginning he would have eliminated him. But now he and Weir are connected. If Weir were to die, it would also affect him as well as the other way around.

"No. You better protect that cunning human, and leave" Kao saluted before leaving.

"wait. What about the Nattawin clan?"

"I've put some people there. But there hasn't been any movement not even anyone out of there"

"Damn it! Why should they interfere?!!"

Kao did not understand that master. It looked different from before that mindlessly he instantly killed the people who annoyed him. But this time he thought too much.

...****************...

With Up's orders, Weir returns to his residence as well as Nick and the vampires on guard following Weir. Up will be the interim leader as long as the Gulf is absent and of course the higher ups agree.

Bright looked at Weir who was leaving with the other higher-ups.

"Thank you, Your Majesty" Bright bowed respectfully to the nodding Up.

"So where is the Gulf now? Can I meet him?"

"I heard he's in a vampire clan called Nattawin, but I can't go there and I don't know where that place is. Only Mr. Mew has been there, he's a hunter. I need to see him soon"

"Well, you meet him. I also hope to see him" Bright said goodbye to leaving soon. Perth stared at Bright's departure. Being in this palace made him shudder a little. He became increasingly concerned about his king.

"Your Majesty, are you sure? According to Bright among the guards, some of them were vampires. I can't even tell the difference. They look the same"

"Are you scared?"

"I'm just worried about you"

"I'm pretty scared, but I have to be brave. If I wasn't who else would have helped the Gulf. You don't have to worry about me, I'm not that weak. Even in the past when training together, the Gulf had always lost to me. He's a crying kid" Up laughed considering his time with Gulf. The two were so close, but after his father forbade him to the kingdom of Traipattanapong, he had never met him again.

...****************...

Bright searches Mew's hideout but finds no one there. He is increasingly worried, with the vampires still there, he thinks Mew's plan must have failed. Bright went to Mr. Pan's residence.

...****************...

"Oh young master Win is in his dorm" said the guard at the residence of Mr. Pan. Bright nodded. He must immediately go to the school where Win studied, but when he turned Bright saw the new Win coming.

"General Bright?! You're back yet?" Win enthusiastically saw it. He approached her clutching Bright's arm.

"What about the vampires in the palace? You have to help Mew. He was in the dungeon" Bright fell silent in surprise. He immediately invited Win to return to the palace.

...****************...

"What's this?" Bright sees something enveloping Mew's body.

"I don't know either. As I looked, she was already covered by that thing" Bright tried to touch her. Very hard as a clear crystal.

"I thought something must have happened to her. Nick should have disappeared. What's going on?"

"I don't know either. First told me that that night, Nick and the others were carrying something with someone in it"

"What about the other hunters? Are they dead? I couldn't find anyone in their hiding place" Win shook his head.

"I haven't seen any other hunters either"

"Master Mew! Mr Mew!" Bright called out loudly but there was no response. His attention was distracted by the necklace around his neck.

That's a noble necklace. How's that on him?

"How do we get him out?"

Tang!

The sound of pebbles hitting the iron bars made Bright and Win shocked. Bright instantly pulled out his sword and hid Win behind his back. There was no one, but clearly they heard voices.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" Shouted Bright.

A shadow darted away, though a little but Bright could still see it. He was also chasing her.

"First?" Win who followed him was quite surprised by his existence.

"Why are you here?" Ask Win.

...****************...

They are now in Bright's room. Ever since his talk back then with First, the two had not spoken again. Win was a little worried if he would report it, but until now First had done nothing.

"I'm right, aren't I? You were the one who set him free. And you're working with him. Would you rather be on the king's side?" Because of his words, a sword directly pointed towards his neck. He stared at Bright not like it.

"General put down your sword" Win had been with First long enough, until he knew First was a man with only a big mouth. In his case right now, he just doesn't know the truth. He only wanted to work for the survival of this kingdom. Win could see that First loved the people of this kingdom very much.

"You know nothing! So watch your mouth! He's still your king. You could've been sentenced to death for insulting your king" First laughed at Bright's temper.

"I never recognized him as my king"

"YOU-" Win held down Bright who brandished his sword preparing to immediately slash at First.

"The first! Enough already! You don't know your father actually killed more people. Even he subverted them to become the food of the vampires" First fell silent. Of course, he was surprised now. He doesn't know whether to believe it or not. But vampires? They are just characters in a fictional story.

"You're always looking for the missing, aren't you? You won't find them, because your father took them to the palace. They are killed and their blood is sucked out by the vampires" First stands up and clutches Win's collar firmly until he has a little trouble breathing. Bright gripped First's arm to release him immediately, but Win held him back. He let it go because he knew First would never hurt him.

"You know that and you didn't tell me?!" First's face flushed red as it held back his emotions.

"You think if I tell you what's gonna happen? You'll just die for nothing. Even your father trusts that vampire more than you do" First was upset. He could not deny Win's statement. Thas right. Now his father prefers Nick over him.

"Then would you rather just shut up because you're afraid to die?"

"I've been trying. I sent some people to free them, but the person I sent never came back" The First Grip weakened and finally came off. He sat back down weakly. Drown his face in his hands. He was upset that he could do nothing.

"Is that guy Nick really a vampire?" Ask without opening his face.

"Yes"

"How do I kill him?"

"Only hunters can kill him. Mr. Mew one of those hunters" First opened his hand he just nodded. He felt like he was the most stupid person because he didn't know the truth. First stand up and go. Win held back the Bright hand that was about to catch up with him.

"Let him alone first" Bright simply nodded.

...****************...

Mew has been moved to a wider area. Bright plans to forcibly open the object that covers Mew.

"He's the hunter?" Ask Up. He was watching her.

"Yes. He was also very close to his Majesty. Let's start and not get hit by the people inside" Bright told his men to open it using a chisel and some small drill.

...****************...

An hour passed, the thing was not even scratched at all. Bright and Perth have already tried it and it still hasn't worked.

"Damn! How do I open it?!" Bright annoyed can't destroy it. Even he had expended his strength but still not scratched.

"The general may be using magic" Louis said.

"Magic?"

"Yes. Isn't this the protector that came out of the noble's necklace? I think the only one who can open it is your majesty"

"What's? But I don't know where the Nattawin clan is" Silently everyone thought.

"What if we try with the holy sword of his majesty?"

"Where did you keep it?"

"I left it to Mr. Mew, but it looks like he kept it in the hunter's mansion"

...****************...

Mile opened the letter Bright had sent her. The hunters were able to re-enter the palace area so Mile was asked to come with the holy sword of the Gulf.

"He must have managed to exterminate those vampires" One of Mile's friends named Vegas a powerful hunter hailing from the central mansion, who is, in the last few days he has been living in the Mile mansion to see the progress of his friend's plans and also to see the state of Mew.

"Of course, you think who trained him" Mile seemed proud of Mew. It was Mile who taught Mew everything. Everything is back to normal and will be a new problem for him.

"So you're going there?"

"Yes. It seems that Gulf has also returned. You'd better come back, we'll meet there later" Vegas nodded and bailed to leave.

...****************...

Bright greeted Mile who came alone with a long pack on his back. Mile was taken directly to a field commonly used for training in the palace.

Mile doesn't understand a bit. Shouldn't he be taken to the Gulf room? But his attention was distracted by someone he knew. He immediately ran to get near her.

"Ma!" Call Mile, but no response from Mew.

"What's going on? What'sthis?"

"It's a protector. Mew fails to carry out his plan and he is attacked by the vampires. Fortunately, he was wearing a necklace of his majesty. The necklace was protecting her" Mile looked worried. If it fails, where are the others? Why is there only Mew here?

"How do I get it out?"

"We tried but it wasn't destroyed at all. Doctor Louis said if possible this thing could only be opened by his majesty. But the only one who knows of his whereabouts is Mew's master. Therefore we want to try to use the holy sword of his majesty" Mile immediately took out the holy sword and prepared to destroy it.

"You're sure this sword can open it?" Bright himself doesn't know. He invited Mile to try it.

Mile concentrated and held tightly to the holy sword.

A sreet!!

Nothing happened. Mile and Bright stared at each other in surprise as even the holy sword could not open it. But a few seconds later a crack appeared with a blinding light.
