"What the fuck is happening? Why did those blood suckers turn into red mist?" A scout stood amid, the clanging of falling weapons on the ground.
Beside him, another guy, who was just exchanging blows with an enemy vampire, watched as the red mist that beca his enemy flew in a certain direction. It overlapped with other red mist around. "The hell?" The sword of his opponent fell to the ground at this mont.
"It probably has sothing to do with their leader. I saw their leader who was fighting the General of the Army just now flee."
"Really? Hahaha! So this ans we've won? Damn it! We finally won! HAHAHAHA! Fuck those vampires and their ancestors!"
"In the end, humans are still far superior to those humanoid mosquitos! How dare they compare themselves to us humans who stood at the top of the food chain for years?" A Tier 8 Hunter puffs up his chest proudly. His face was filled with scratches, his hair was pointed in all directions like a seaweed. He was so bloodied that even his mother didn't recognize him anymore.
"Don't make a fuss! Silence everyone!" The general raised his hand, which prompted everyone to be silent.
The scouts looked at the general in awe. After all, it was said that Draco. The second in command of the entire vampire flees on their battle. Everyone noticed how powerful Draco was. A true Tier 5 Destiny. Every one of his moves could claim the lives of ants like them. Only three captains of the regi working together could endure Draco's attacks.
The general stared in the direction where the blood mist congregated and his eyes narrowed into slits. 'So the king had started his operation. The inevitable has co.'
Yes, he deliberately let Draco escape. It's not that the latter escapes due to fear or anything. In the end, they were all Michael's pawns. It was true that they were old rivals, though.
As the general thought of the king's true identity. He couldn't help but feel a deep sense of fear. Michael was an entity that he couldn't afford to provoke. In his early life, he had been called a genius. No one could match his skill and talent in his generation. No one could surpass him! He always strived to be the strongest in the world. He also wants the ho, the kingdom he was born to thrive. Beco the sharpest blade of the kingdom that would lead it to conquer many nations or revolt if the managent of the kingdom isn't suited to rule. If they were incapable or downright selfish.
The general beca more and more confident as he grew older. He has a strong self-belief and thought of himself as almost infallible. No one can stand up to him. Everyone who challenged him beca his stepping stone. He joined the army just to fulfill his dreams. Climb through the ranks. The upper echelons noticed his talent, leadership, and skills. He also went from Tier 9 to Tier 5. Actually, the youngest Tier 5 Destiny in history! He thought of himself as the strongest until he t the king.
The 8th prince took the throne with his own hands. Well, it was possible because the 8th prince has another identity... The ancestor of the vampires! Michael! No one knew if he just replaced the original 8th prince and hypnotized the royal family with his vampiric powers to recognize his identity as a prince.
The general knew Michael's secret due to fighting him and losing horribly multiple tis. He had lost the confidence built. His self-belief turned into self-doubt. In the end, he only beca a pawn for the king. But he didn't leave the city because he loved his ho.
He recognized that in the end. Michael won't let the City of Phenos suffer too much since it is his territory... Not to ntion, it was his sustainable food source. Without the human population. Where would he get his food?
The general admitted that can't go against Michael and changed his goal to submit to him wholeheartedly. Although Michael was a tyrant and downright selfish. He was the one who kept order in the city. His strength made powerful Apokalips and even other neighboring kingdoms hesitate. He was evil, but he was also ironically the only shield and hope of the city. The general knew everything was for the greater good. Since he can't oppose him. Why not join him?
One of the plans of Michael was called the 'Blood Moon Project'. To convert as many as humans to vampires and make them stronger and stronger. Then, Michael will use his Blood Moon technique to absorb them all and push him to the next realm! He didn't need to drink blood repeatedly, which was a hassle. He can just cultivate vampires using his blood and they would beco his nutrition at one point. Of course, it takes thousands of years to do this, but it was worth it. Thousands of years was just comparable to a month for truly immortal creatures like vampires.
The general smiled slightly. The stronger Michael becos, the safer the kingdom. It was also for this reason that he didn't oppose the nobles for taking the energy sources instead of fuelling the sword formations that...
Thinking of the old man and the strongest sword sect in the past. The general could only sigh. Like him, the old man and the sword sect cares genuinely for their ho. Unlike him, though, they didn't want to accept Michael, who only treats humans as his food source. They want a human to lead humans.
'That old bastard is really stubborn.' The general shook his head, then smiled again. 'Well, it's ti for his majesty to also ascend to his other path.'
Even though he wasn't much. Michael trusts him more than Draco and his children, whom he only treats as his nutrients. Unlike them, he knew Michael's plan and was often the one that did the execution of minors and sotis even major plans.
Due to this, he also knew that Michael would only end the Blood Moon Project to boost his spiritual power so he would be able to support his ascension to Tier 3 Dark Angel of Shadow Path which has the most intense side effect out of all paths. This ans Michael had found the final ingredient of his recipe!
'I hope he succeeds, or this kingdom is done for.'
