Chapter 4 - The Vampire Lord

"So who are you?"

Gregory asked casually which earned him a dumbfounded expression from the girl. She lingered for a moment, a thoughtful expression appearing on her face and then she shrugged.

"If you are asking for my name, it is Sara."

After hearing that, Gregory smiled and said in a warm tone.

"Nice to meet you, Sara; my name is Jal Atar Kaliel."

While saying that he extended his hand for a handshake. The girl looked at him for a few moments in confusion. He lingered for a few moments and took the hand back in embarrassment.

Gregory didn't know why he introduced himself as his game character name. When he thought of his name that's what came to his mind. He didn't linger too much on the subject and continued asking her questions.

"So where are we right now Sara?"

Gregory asked full of tense anticipation. He already knows that he is not on earth and that the girl in front of him is responsible for his arrival.

"You are in Yoren Riegon of the kingdom."

'Hmmm, Yoren .....What a strange name.' He thought for a bit, a dark expression appearing on his face. Then he shrugged and asked.

"How did I get here?"

She stared at him with a stunned expression and said in a surprised tone.

"Of course, by summoning you, you came from the 4 spiritual plains, right? You must have known at least that."

This time Gregory was dumbfounded. 'Summoning...Did she say summoning? What the fuck is happening here.'

He glanced at her again and composed himself.

'Of course, I know what summoning is. My previous character in the game was a beast summoner but those kinds of things only exist in games, anime and other similar things unless...'

"What do you mean by summoning and 4 spiritual plains?" he asked her point blank.

She stared at him with long eyes. From the way she looked, it seemed like she wanted to know whether or not he was trolling her or not.

"Wait, you really don't know?"

Gregory shot a bored look at her and shook his face. She frowned and went into a deep trance of thinking. After a couple of minutes, she looked at him and asked in a serious tone.

"But how can that be, you are supposed to be from one of the four spiritual worlds. Unless you are....from another world?"

When she said that last three words, Gregory's head perked up in interest. Actually, he also had the same idea about this situation; he genuinely believed that somehow he had been isekaid.

"Which planet am I in?" He asked her bluntly.

She glanced at him again; a hint of happiness crept up onto her face but vanished instantly. "The planet we are in right now is called Torin."

He then continued staring at her and asked another question.

"What is summoning? How does it work and what are the 4 spiritual plains."

She then looked toward the wolf and sighted.

"A summoner can summon beings from four spiritual plains. A summoner is a class and one can obtain it by awakening. Summoner's mana is used when the summoner summons a being from a spiritual world. First, spiritual plains js the angels' land; second is hell; third is the land of spirits; and fourth is the land of magical beasts. Those four plains are the moons that circle around our planet."

Gregory was bewildered; he had never heard this much unbelievable information at the same time.

He frowned and put a hand on his chin. Then he enveloped himself in the cycle of thinking.

'So this really is another world and it is very similar to the game I played. So when I lost consciousness, this girl summoned me here...Strange, even after knowing that she is the reason I got here, I don't feel any hostility toward her. She also said there is a skill that has influenced me to feel these unnatural feelings for her. Maybe that's why I don't feel contempt and instead feel care for her...It is a good thing I stopped her from eating the wolf's corpse. I don't know what would have happened to me if she died.'

Suddenly, something clicked inside his mind, and a surprised expression started to paint on his face under the girl's gaze.

"Wait...How do I know that the wolf's blood is poisonous? …..How did it get poisonous in the first place? …..Is it because I released my blood inside it?" After that, something clicked in his mind. He turned toward the girl and asked in a serious tone.

"How do I look like?"

The girl stared at his eyes for a moment and looked at his body. The more she looked, the more red her cheeks became. Well, it is to be expected. He was in good shape and had nothing to cover his upper body.

She lingered for a moment, still looking at his chest and shook her head. Then she said in a neutral tone while trying to sound uninterested.

"Why are you asking for something like that anyway?"

John looked at her with a serious expression.

"Just tell me, what do I look like?"

She eyed him for a few seconds, trying to guess what was in his mind. Then she shrugged and said in an indifferent tone.

"You are definitely not human." The moment she said that his heart grew cold. A shiver ran through his body as he continued to listen.

"You have the palest skin I have ever seen. Your teeth are the king of sharp, mostly 2 of them. Other than that everything is human. You are taller than the average human but have a slender, muscular human body….Ohh, also, your eyes are blood red."

She then lingered for a moment and spoke again.

"There was also a big tattoo of a snake on your back."

When she stopped speaking, amazement and bewilderment filled his mind at the same time. Gregory knew the person she was describing. It was none other than the vampire lord character he was playing the game as.

Somehow, miraculously, he has been summoned to another world as his game character.

Under the gaze of Sarah, he lingered with a hand on his chin. His mind was full of violent thoughts. Then, a chilling, terrifying question appeared in his mind. The answers to this question could be dreadful.

'What happened to me in my own world?'
