The Accidental Vampire

"What are you saying?" The Duke asked. "Did you drink too much today? You're talking about an uprising against the King!"

The King was the middle-aged man's brother. That's also why he had received the position of the Duke. He couldn't believe someone had invited him to their party to declare that they were going to take over the Empire which belonged to their family.

"Oh? An uprising? You're wrong. I'm not going to start an uprising. It's just taking over what already belongs to me. And if you call that uprising, I won't stop you. Just that you should correct your statement a bit."

"If it's an uprising, then it's not going to start. It has already started long ago. Today, it's going to end!"

Zhang clapped his hands.

The doors opened, and multiple guards stepped inside, bringing some people who were chained. They couldn't even move their hands.

"Haa?"

Shocking gasps filled the entire hall as there was not a single person here who didn't recognize the people who were called inside. Well, there was not a single person from this timeline. Since Lilith had slept for over a century, she didn't know most of the things about this world, let alone recognising faces. She was the only person here who didn't recognize the prisoners.

The only thing she was sure of was that none of these were Atlan.

"Brother!" The Duke called out, recognizing the man in the lead. It was her brother and the current Emperor!

The Emperor wasn't alone. His entire family was in shackles, including his small kids.

"That's right. This weak man is your current Emperor. Well, he used to be. He had abdicated the throne long ago, making me the new Emperor. From now on, this entire Empire belongs to me and the Franc Clan!"

"The reason I called you here was to celebrate this new change with me, and so you could welcome your new Emperor!"

"At the same time, you'll also get to witness something that you don't usually get to see! You'll see some executions! The entire Royal Family will be executed and remembered... This is also what the outcome will be for anyone who dares to betray me!"

"It's time to show the world that it's not just the Werewolves who can have an Empire that can keep the Vampires at bay! It's time we mages start our rise too! This Empire is just the beginning! I will make this Empire a place where all the Witch Clans will come under the same umbrella, for the same cause!"

"It's time for us to start our preparation for the future! So cheers to a new future!" Zhang raised his glass for a Toast before taking a sip.

The Royal Family kept begging the man to let them go. They talked about how they had already handed over the reins of the Empire, and now they weren't a threat. Unfortunately, their pleas for help only fell on deaf ears.

Lilith clenched her fist, finally understanding what Zhang was planning.

'That idiot...' she couldn't help but shake her head. 'So I was right. He is going to break the treaty. That just means he is reducing the time for us all. What an idiot! Did no one tell him what led to that treaty in the first place?'

Through the corners of her eyes, she also noticed the young mage who had given her the invitation to this party. The young man also appeared to be shocked at what he heard. It was as if even he didn't know about the plan.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

The Royal Family was kept prisoners in the clan, yet he didn't know about it. Then again, he was a low-ranking member. It wasn't too shocking that he didn't know. From the looks of it, only the High ranking members knew of this plan.

Right before everyone in the hall, the Royal Family was kept hostage, ready to be executed. The atmosphere of celebration was suddenly changed to something much darker. Most of the guests here had pale faces. Some were even trembling. When they arrived here, even in their wildest dreams, they couldn't have expected what they were seeing right now.

Many even thought that they were in a nightmare.

Right before everyone's eyes, the members of the Franc Clan killed the Royal Family. Painful roars echoed in the surroundings as they were killed. Even the kids weren't spared. And not a single person tried to stop them. None of them had the strength to stop it either.

If there was one person who could stop the Franc Clan, it was Lilith. Unfortunately, Lilith also couldn't interfere. She was here for a mission, and that mission was more important for now than a family.

She didn't want to place her neck on the line for someone else's family, especially since that was going to put Atlas in danger. For his sake and hers, she didn't do anything.

She just acted shocked like everyone else here.

Fifteen Minutes... Only fifteen minutes were left, and things had become more complicated than she thought. Sneaking out of a party was still comparatively easier, but sneaking out of a slaughter house where no one even dared to move...?

The entire hall was surrounded by the Clan members. Even the exit was blocked. There appeared to be no way out of here without attracting everyone's attention. Even for her, it wasn't easy at this point.

"Hmm?" This?" Lilith frowned, sending something. She looked to her left.

She wasn't the only one who sensed something. Zhang appeared to be the same. He gazed to his right. His face turned grim.

Even Lilith didn't appear to be happy at this point.

Atlan sat in his dark cell, inside a formation circle that prevented him from getting out of the circle. There were many guards outside his cell, despite him being unable to fight back. Even his chains weren't removed.

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom Despite all that, there appeared to be a devilish smile on Atlan's face. It was unclear why he was smiling in this situation.

"He is here… That's quite unexpected. I didn't think he would come here... I thought Castiel would be the one to arrive here first. But even I didn't expect... him. Things are certainly going to get very interesting here. Then again, it's about time. I was starting to get bored. It should be the time to make a return..."

"I would've loved to see Zhang's face at this point. I'm sure he would've sensed it as well. If only Castiel also arrives now, that guy would have a heart attack..."

Atlan's laughter echoed in the dark cell, getting louder with each passing second.
