Ray held her shoulder and the lady stood there shivering as she wasn't sure what would happen next, in a flash Ray dug his teeth into her neck.
The lady couldn't speak as she stood there without moving a muscle, she could feel herself losing strength from the blood loss but she couldn't move.
As soon as her blood entered Ray's mouth he was unable to control himself, he wanted more, he wanted all, Ray dug his fangs deeper into her throat, and more blood rushed to his mouth.
After a few seconds, Ray removed his fangs from her throat and stumbled backward, the lady's skin was already pale from all the blood loss and she fell to the ground dead.
Ray couldn't describe the sweet feeling he got from drinking her blood, this was the first time he experienced this type of feeling, the blood rushed to all parts of his blood spreading the pleasurable feeling all over his body.
With his mouth and clothes covered in blood, he couldn't visit the village like this so he had to find water, not far from the village was a river where the people of the village got water from so he walked towards the river.
Ray's senses were heightened beyond description, he could sense humans, and animals from far away, his eyes sight, and hearing were also on a different level but Ray didn't care about those.
If he had his memories he would know he was a lot stronger than before but without his memories, he just thought he was always that strong, Ray walked towards the river but he still couldn't get rid of the taste of blood from his mouth.
Ray stopped as a memory flashed in front of him, he was talking to someone and the person told him drinking blood would make him stronger but he refused saying he didn't want to drink blood.
"Who was that, and why do I keep having these flashes, are my memories truly missing" Ray grunted as he increased his speed and dashed towards the river.
Ray finally reached the river and It was bigger than he expected, Alex placed his hands in the water and it was warm, the river was flowing so he could get inside.
Ray washed his hands and mouth to clean the blood, his shirt was torn and stained with blood so he took it off and continue towards the village.

"The news of the attack has spread already so I'll hand out papers so you can write to your families and tell them you are safe, that's all"
"Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty" two girls spoke among all the first-year students.
Sofia and Annie bowed down and said as soon as the King finished speaking, the remaining students quickly joined them in surprise.
The King smiled as he looked at the students, he turned around and walked away and the Royal knights followed him, Alfred was the one walking the king while James was still at the city gates.
"The damage isn't something that can be repaired in some days, I can't believe there's is someone in this world that could stand toe to toe with Avalon," the king said.
"The control of infected beasts gave him all the advantages, and this is a knight city, if there were mages here, the city wouldn't be in this condition," Boreas said and Alfred stared at him before taking his eyes off, the war commander also came with the king.
"Your Majesty," Selena said as came close.
"Ohh, Selena how did this happen, you were here right when the city was attacked?" the King asked.
"I was here, the enemy had the numbers on their side and infected beasts don't care if they get killed, they charge without thinking while we humans have to think or else we'll get killed, I'm truly sorry your Majesty," Selena said with her head down.
"If it wasn't for Selena the city would have been taken down, she alone killed half of the enemies but they were just too much for us to handle, we caught two of the enemies and killed three of them but the Mastermind of the attack escaped" Alfred spoke.
"Have you questioned the Intruders, were they willing to give us information?" Boreas asked.
"Their lips were sealed, but we have a mage on the way who can get information so we just need to wait," Alfred said.
"Okay, and now about the most important thing, I heard the enemy came for a scroll, have you figured out why he needs the scroll?" the King asked.
Alfred and Selena looked at themselves, they weren't sure if they should reveal what the scroll would be used for and they didn't know if the king would believe them.
"It seems you know the use of the scroll, let's go somewhere private," the king said.
...
"A demon king..." the King mouthed.
"That was how he was able to create and control infected beasts, demons have been wiped out for years and their existence has practically been forgotten, but the demon king is still somewhere and now he's planning his revival," Alfred said.
"Revival..." Boreas mumbled.
"And Draco is his pawn, I still have no idea why Draco is doing that," Selena said.
"Power, nothing else, Draco must have been powerless when he came across the demon king and he offered Draco power and used Draco to plot his revival," Alfred said.
"But if the demon king you speak of is that powerful, why didn't he revive himself, maybe something is stopping him," the king said.
"Yes,"
"Then we should attack before he's revived, that way all the problems would be avoided right?"
"Yes your Majesty but we have no idea where he is, we have search parties looking but still no result," Alfred said.
"I also sent a search party after the mage academy was attacked but I haven't heard from them since," Boreas said.
"Maybe we are searching the wrong places, what if he's in a cave or a dungeon" Selena spoke.
