The entire street instantly went silent - not a single sound could be heard as only the gentle whistling of the southern winds could be heard. Not only did it go silent but everything also seemed to stop. As if some Faux God had wandered through while deciding they were bored, froze time for a second to do some sort of prank. In this case though it was a grumpy dragon who was beginning to get sick of all these humans spouting their superiority - their shouting wasn’t even that fearsome as a territorial roar!
It had too many shifts. It was more efficient just to put all your power behind a single intimidating bellow if you were going to try to intimidate something; yet ‘human norms’ had to make even that overly complicated. She enjoyed it though. Humans were more complicated than beasts like her which took her awhile to get used to but over the years she finally figured something out.
Humans were fun.
They were hypocritical, irrational, self-centred and often biassed.
But they were fun because they were so impossibly dumb as a species. Which other species fought each other as much as they did? In hindsight she perfectly understood why Mother ruled the world as she did. If she let humans have access to too advanced technology and the older powers didn’t have enemies to unite against… They would likely destroy themselves! In her opinion, giving them magic was already pushing it. Luckily Violet’s Demons and Munzumira’s spirits were far more powerful.
Honestly it was kind of funny that humans compared themselves to demons when they’ve only seen the weakest of the weak. They even considered a vampire from the Bloodleaf bloodline - the original bloodline from which all vampires descended - a realm level threat that they couldn’t do anything about… Though this made her upset.
The reason was because she still hadn’t fully unlocked her bloodline despite realising that not only did she have the amazing bloodline of Mother… She had the bloodline of Violet mixed with Bloodleaf’s pure bloodline. She could be said to be on the level of the purest of pure blood vampires yet; the first generation under the ancestor of all vampires. But yet she could hardly use any of it because her dragon's side acted like a gateway.
When she fully unlocked her dragon bloodline she’d be able to quickly increase in power to make her current self look like a mortal to a dragon. Yet until she did she only got these rudimentary abilities that hardly represented her vampire/fox half.
Letting out a long sigh she looked down at the human who had been knocked out cold by her one movement - blood leaking from the sides of his mouth and nose - she would simply let him go. After knocking him out she wouldn’t even consider him anymore as she began to rub her neck with her hand before cracking her neck to fully end the ‘time freeze’.
As those in the surroundings finally came to terms with the sudden scene the first thing they did was glare at the girl who just chokeslammed ‘one of their own’ into the ground. The first to actually speak up were his party/friends of course. It took no time at all for the remaining three to surround poor little Eel with their rusty daggers pointed toward her.
“Y-you bitch, you just killed Tim.” <E-Rank 1>
“He shouldn’t be dead and if he is then he should blame himself for being arrogant on my bad day. Never mess with a girl on her bad day fufufu~!” <Eel>
“Urgh, let’s just show her what's what!” <E-Rank 2>
“W-wait!” <E-Rank 1>
“Nah, let’s just attack her together to see what she can do!” <E-Rank 3>
The two in front of her both tried to attack her by simply running right at her with their knives held in front of themselves. She didn’t enjoy bullying people but comparing herself to others her age… Only now she realised how amazing she actually was if this was the best they could manage.
She simply just reached out and grabbed their wrist while pushing them down causing the two fools to stumble for a bit. The one on the left (no.2) fell flat on their face while their knife safely slammed into the floor. Couldn’t have them accidentally hurting themselves!
The other (no.3) managed to stay on their feet but still stumbled away from her. She simply did the most obvious move; tilting backwards to initiate a backflip with her final destination being the back of the hunched over no.3. The boy could hardly lift a short sword let alone the full weight of the mini dragon so they were the next to touch the dirt.
Abruptly though the first made a move and also charged towards Eel with his knife raised - his face was that of anxiousness and anger though. Eel made no real move to dodge it which quickly raised fear into the boy as the blade was pushed against Eel’s flesh before he could stop himself. As soon as that happened he jumped away with tears in his eyes.
