[OOC: That sounds good to me! I'll bump us on ahead, then. Feel free to add in any desired details as I tend to gloss over battle technicalities.]
There's a bit of a dry look sent her way at the mention of horrifying monsters, but he notes that she doesn't discount herself as being one. Privately his mind flits to Alucard for a moment, the half-vampire that Trevor has not only spared but befriended. Alucard is half-human, though. This being in front of him appears civilized and is certainly capable of discourse, but she's far from human.
Not that humans can't be another form of monster, either.
"I'm not about to argue that magic doesn't belong in most people's hands. Nor running through their veins." The argument posed for feeding off humans to survive he imagines is natural to vampires. Beings that see humans as part of their feeding chain, rather than them being an invasive species that shouldn't exist on earth at all. It's true though that she hasn't seemed to kill any of the villagers, whether that's to avoid getting noticed or for more altruistic reasons.
"Most people though don't agree to be someone else's dinner." He's about to take a step forward when a noise nearby makes him stop. Instinctively his weapon raises. "Including me," he murmurs in the direction of a nearby bush before a number of beings rush out to greet them. These are not the night creatures he's familiar with. These beings appear mostly human, if their forms a bit desiccated looking with black veins and glowing orbs for eyes. They possess far greater than normal strength it seems, ebony and red robes, and attack both Lenora and Trevor alike.
'Eradicate the impure,' they cry.
"Last I heard that it was a cuckolded finance," he quips as he fights, not wanting to give them the vampire, either. Not when he doesn't know what they might do with her or use her. Fending off many of them, as there's a lull in battle he tries to grab her arm and urge, "Time to regroup, I think. Somewhere else. I think they'd have a harder time following us on the eastern route. Unless you wanna find out why they want a vampire and a human corpse."
