Jas was following Laura, followed by Ariel. They had left the building they were in and the gaze of every street they passed, every vampire they left behind, was locked on her.
A crimson sky dominated the floor. A white moon seed to add colour to the sky. Each of the surrounding buildings was very lancholic and on top of that, they all looked as if they had co straight out of the Victorian era.
It was a beautiful sight, and both Jas and Ariel were filled with the desire to look at each building again and again.
Every one of the vampires seed to bow their heads when they saw Jas.
[I've never seen anything like this in my life...Vampires worshipping another race...much less a human...It's inconceivable, truly inconceivable. It's inconceivable that vampires can obey my orders after thinking about it three or four tis, but this is how they treat you].
This ssage was coming from Nyx herself, even though she knew that vampires were the most arrogant race in the tower.
Jas was slowly beginning to realize how valuable he was becoming in the eyes of the vampires. After eating the Sun Vampire core and gaining the blood elental from the dragon hearts, he had never imagined such things would happen.
"Tell , Laura, I killed one of your kind, so of you even swore revenge, but now they bow their heads when they see ," Jas said suddenly, and Laura stopped and looked at Jas.
"There used to be a legend. Or rather, I wouldn't call it a legend, it was just a vision. A vision that existed almost a million and a half years ago. I wish I could tell you about it, but it would be better if you learned about it from the Empress," Laura replied.
Jas, without question, nodded his head in agreent.
So the trio entered a carriage and after almost three hours of non-stop and very tiring travel, it seed that they had made it to the palace.
When Jas and Ariel stepped out of the carriage, they were indeed surprised by the sights around them. Contrary to their expectations, every single servant was looking at them with smiling faces.
"I think this [vision] is really important. I didn't think any vampire would look at like that," Jas said suddenly, and then he saw only Laura's smiling face towards him.
With that, Ariel and Jas managed to enter the palace and make their way up to the throne room. When the doors to the throne room opened, the nobles inside could be seen with naked eyes.

Jas turned to Laura, who was standing next to him, and asked, "If possible, could you show Ariel to a room where she can rest and take a shower?" Ariel was still struggling to regain consciousness, all her clothes were soaked in gallons of blood.
Laura nodded her head in agreent and called for so servants. She then told all the servants to treat Ariel with the utmost respect and to give her one of the best rooms.
With that, Ariel left and Laura spoke in a loud voice to the entire throne room:
"The owner of the Sun Empire, the leader of the Church of the Night, the lord of the glacial people and the owner of the 26th Floor, Jas Arthur Black, nicknad Umbra, has entered the hall!"
After these words, Jas looked at Laura, who had just said these words in front of him, and said in a small voice, "Good introduction."
Laura's expression was overflowing with happiness and Jas started to walk into the hall.
Every noble around was bowing their heads and even the Empress herself was waiting for Jas at the foot of the stairs leading to the throne.
Jas was becoming depressed at the thought of sitting on a throne again, indeed the throne was his, but he had no way of knowing why. All he knew was that it was a vision and the vampires worshipped him.
"Welco dear leader, for over a million years my lineage has awaited your arrival." said the woman at the foot of the stairs leading to the throne.
The woman bowed carefully after these words, and when she stood back up, she suddenly continued speaking:
"My na is Victoria sir, the 47th leader and 14th empress of the vampire race. I am deeply honoured to et you."
Victoria was an incredibly beautiful woman, it was not hard to see that, every single hair looked as if it had been drawn by hand. Her features, her eyebrows, her eyes and nose, even her ears and mouth looked as if they had been carefully placed by the creator himself. Her beauty was enhanced by her jet-black hair and her bright, light-red eyes. She was wearing a long black dress that looked as if it imitated a black wedding dress.
She was certainly a very beautiful woman.
Jas nodded his head as soon as he heard those words and then said, "Nice to et you, I'm Jas, you are worthy to call by my na, please do so."
However, just to assert his authority, he walked up to Victoria and then climbed almost twenty steps to the throne where the leader of all vampires could sit.
All the vampires in the throne room trembled at the sight. Even the dumbest creature could see the blood boiling in each of their veins, adrenaline and excitent gripping them tightly.
"Now tell , what exactly is this [vision]?" Jas suddenly asked.
Hearing this question, Victoria took a few gentle steps forward and then, looking up towards the throne where Jas was sitting, she smiled and then began to speak:
"Over a million years ago, almost two million years ago, soone ca to this floor, sir. This woman looked quite devastated, tired and exhausted. A human, a female human, who begged and pleaded with my ancestor that she had fought for soone and that there were shortcomings in her loss, even if things were still going well."
"Upon eting this human, my ancestor felt sothing awakened deep within his soul. My ancestor Drak, the 1st Vampire leader and 1st Vampire Emperor, and the first Sun Vampire, made a prediction...a prophecy. It was a prediction that all vampires followed carefully, and so of them, out of arrogance, wished it wasn't true."
"Drak..." Jas heard a voice in his mind, and it was Vladimir's again.
"Do you know him?" Jas muttered in his mind.
"Of course I know him...." said Vladimir and within a few seconds he added, "He's my brother."
"Then who could that woman be who ca here?" Jas questioned in his mind, but no answer ca back.
Victoria then reached into her inventory and pulled out a parchnt, coughed twice softly to clear her throat and then spoke:
[Whoever will murder one of our kind will be a mber of the highest blood. A human being, his fate will be as he has written it. He will use blood, like breathing. He will control all vampires and be present in the middle of the battlefield when the great destruction reaches the tower's interior from the outside of it, leading them to the front lines and showing them all the reason for honour, truth and existence. Until he becos the master of blood, life and destruction].
With that, Victoria had finished her speech and was looking intently at Jas. It could be seen that all the nobles in the hall were also looking at him with eyes as bright as Victoria's.
Jas instantly realized what he had to do. He touched the garnt he was wearing and began to use his mana, focusing on the fifth magic ring in particular. As he removed his hand from the garnt, he ford another sword from the blood.
As Jas did so, every single vampire in the throne room suddenly dropped to their knees, each with a smile of excitent that could only be described as terrifying.
Jas could not understand what had caused this.
"[The vision] said that with your arrival the vampire race would rise again, that they would put aside their arrogance and beco the greatest in the tower. I am deeply honoured to be the leader who has t you, my emperor." Victoria said suddenly and Jas stood up and said, "We can leave that for later, I have a question for you."
Victoria was just as surprised as the other nobles and then looked at Jas curiously.
"This woman...the woman who spoke to Drak, do you have any idea what she looks like?"
When Jas asked this question, Victoria nodded her head up and down and then said, "Yes, Mr. Jas, I have a picture of that mont, if you can wait ten minutes, I can have it brought from my room."
However, Victoria suddenly looked at Laura, who was near the door to the throne room, and Laura went at hyper speed and returned with a painting.
As Victoria handed the painting to Jas, an expression of surprise appeared in Jas' mind.
"HOLY SHIT!!!"
The voice belonged to none other than Vladimir. What had surprised him so much was a matter of curiosity.
