Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Porseila was not in the best mood lately. She was feeling depressed. As if the universe was targeting her, everything was coming one after another to make her life unbearable.

First, she found herself in a low-tier Stronghold when she first came into Portal World. Unlike her sister, who lucked out into one of the most famous Strongholds in the G-Circle, in Veteran Abdul Stronghold.

Veteran Abdul had the most famous, most capable, most handsome Post Commander in the world, Merlin Cross.

Unlike his stupid, incompetent brother, Merlin was charming and strong. He was mȧturė and powerful. He was the first Grace-Rank Hunter to be ȧssigned to a border stronghold as a Post Commander.

Border Strongholds were a little bit more special because of their locations. They were built in between two circles, and most people passing to the F-Circle would pass through there.. They were under monster attacks constantly from all sides, but they had to be built as such to protect people newly advanced to Form-Rank.

People who had just broken through couldn't find their ways to the F-Tier Strongholds and had to stay at the Border Strongholds.

Normally, only Form-Rank Post Commanders would be ȧssigned to a Border Stronghold in weekly shifts, but Merlin, thanks to his achievements and powers, was able to earn this opportunity. He didn't fail the higher-ups, which earned him their trust.

As soon as he took control over the stronghold, he brought all sides together to create a common force to fight against monsters and had upgraded the heavy-weapons installed on walls. Since he took over, not one monster passed through the gates of Veteran Abdul.

Porseila sighed as she walked with Olivier at his side.

"Is there anything bothering you, Princess?" Olivier asked like a charming prince.

"Nothing but a pest." Porseila answered back with a faint smile.

Olivier was handsome and had a great background. But for Porseila, she likes Merlin more.

Ever since she was small, she always had a crush on him.

Once upon a time, Porseila saw Merlin bullying that bastard Miles, and she thought she could get close to Merlin by bullying Miles as well. But the next time she was there and had bullied Miles, Merlin scolded her until she cried. She didn't know what did she do wrong, but it was all because of that stupid brother.

Porseila was also envious of her sister, who was in the same stronghold as Merlin. They were able to see each other every day, unlike her, who got teleported in Veteran Aomine Stronghold, one of the weakest in the G-Circle.

If that wasn't enough, Porseila had some bigger pests bothering her day and night. They court her nonstop. Because of their family status, many people on Earth wanted to marry into their family. It was the same for her sisters. People were doing everything they could to get her favor.

But that wasn't the worst. A while ago, the person she hated most, the person who caused Merlin to shout at her, the person she could crush like a bug appeared in the same stronghold. She wanted to embarrass him more than anything, but she lost. It wasn't because she was weaker, but because she underestimated him. How could she know that good for nothing could be able to use Strengthening Serum? But she was too ashamed to accept it. If she were to tell Miles was just an Oafish, a failure couldn't awaken his powers, she would accept her inferiority.

'Why does no one understand me? My brilliance is too much for this stupid stronghold, but my Grandpa refused to transfer me to another one. I hate you, Grandpa, I hate you.

Even Cruel Heart rebuilt the stronghold for her precious granddaughter. Here, I am, in the weakest one.'

'That bitch Quinn defended Miles. She was always close to Merlin. If she thinks she is that stupid Oafish's sister-in-law, she better think again!'

Porseila had no intention to hunt the vampire when she first came. She just wanted to take a walk and see the famous humanoid monster. But when Quinn took control and wanted to give up on fighting, she stood against her.

'Who does she think she is ordering me around?'

However, things got out of control. Others also supported Olivier after her, and she found herself inside the forest with criminals and terrorists, looking for the vampire.

"There it is!" The weird woman with a mask pointed at the clearing between trees.

There stood a small child, bȧrėfoot and looking at them with its red eyes. The child had an evil smirk with fangs protruding from it, looking ghoulish. Its hands were bloody, and there was a disfigured body beneath its feet. The corpse was one of the hunters looking for the vampire earlier. Whatever is left from the outfit, it could be seen that it was a soldier.

"Quinn will get so mad." Porseila thought in her heart as she took a step back.

Olivier came in front of her and blocked the macabre stares of the monster. It was looking at them as if they were its food.

"Welcome, humans!" the child-like beast spoke with an eerie voice as he was looking at them. "I was waiting for you."

"How can he speak in human language?" Porseila asked as she shivered behind Olivier. She never saw anything so dreadful.

"Humanoid monsters are capable of talking. Vampires as spiritual monsters can learn human language through mind search. The question is not how though. How much does he know about us? We are all famous people, and the people captured knew us. If he knows our abilities, it will be one hell of a fight." The girl with the mask explained. She meant others because no one caught knew her abilities. By doing it, she wanted to push them to use all of their abilities without any reservation.

"That sounds like trouble. What are we gonna do?" Tian Ling asked.

"We shouldn't hold back, since he already knows our abilities. Let's fight with everything we have, and finish him off." Olivier said.

Underneath the mask, the woman smiled. But no one saw it.
