Chapter 25: - Partners in Blood
"I need some blood, like, seriously. You're practically making me bleed out with your non-stop blabbering," Bong quipped lazily, his tone a blend of humorous annoyance as he responded to Seraphina's talkative nature.
"Oh, My Master, please don't...," Seraphina started to say, her words trailing off.
Bong interrupted her.
"Stop. Let's go with your plan. Seriously, I'm ready for whatever it takes to make you quiet," Bong responded, his tone a mix of amusement and willingness to go along with Seraphina's suggestion.
"Alright, My Master," Seraphina said, offering a big thumbs up as a sign of agreement and readiness.
"First, you wait here, Master. I will handle those Orcs near the bell. You stay hidden in the shadows. Then, I will signal you to come inside the Village," Seraphina instructed with confidence, detailing her plan to Bong.
Seraphina sprouted wings from her back, then she concealed herself within the shroud of the night's shadow. She glided soundlessly to the location of the Orc guards stationed near the alarm. Swiftly and silently, she materialized behind each Orc and swiftly took their lives, her sharp nails serving as her lethal weapon.
With a sinister smile on her face, she indulged in the macabre moment, licking her blood-laden fingers. One by one, she extinguished the lives of the Orcs who could trigger the alarm bell. Satisfied with her grim work, she signaled for Bong to proceed inside the village.
"Note to self: Don't ever get on her bad side," Bong muttered, a gulp forming in his throat as he observed Seraphina relishing the blood of the Orcs.
Bong stealthily entered the village, trailing behind Seraphina like a shadow. Their wings and subtle hand signals conveyed their coordinated movements, like a deadly dance in the moonlit night. Together, they struck in unison, their actions orchestrated with the precision of seasoned assassins. The guards fell without a sound, their lives extinguished in the darkness, leaving behind only silence and the rustle of their own wings.
As the moon cast an eerie glow, Bong utilized his mastery of shadow manipulation to conjure a weapon, while Seraphina's sharp nails became instruments of death. The night shrouded their actions in a veil of secrecy, their every movement executed with a ruthless efficiency that sent shivers down the spine.

After the chilling massacre in the Orc village, they carefully collected the bodies, placing them outside the village limits. In a remote area, bathed in the pale moonlight, Seraphina assisted Bong in arranging the Orc bodies. As he stood amidst the lifeless forms, a haunting tableau of their lethal dance in Orc blood, Bong prepared to savor the fruits of their grim labor.
Bong's fangs sank deep into Orc flesh, savoring the gruesome delicacy of their blood. As he indulged in his grisly feast, Seraphina's large, glowing eyes remained fixed on him, her mouth showing traces of anticipation as saliva dripped, a clear sign that the massacre had awoken her hunger as well. Seeing her expression, Bong decided to share the spoils.
"Here, half for you, half for me. Just make sure you stay in your own space and don't touch my portion," Bong remarked, his tone a mix of dark humor and a matter-of-fact agreement.
"Oh, My Lord, your kindness knows no bounds. Your loyal servant shall remain by your side for all eternity," Seraphina exclaimed, extending her arms wide as she basked in the moonlight. Her laughter resonated under the moon's glow, creating an eerie yet enchanting ambiance.

"Oh, give me a break! I'm just yanking your circuits. Lighten up a bit, System," Bong retorted with a playful tone, clearly finding amusement in the System's reaction.
