Elizabeth Bathory, also known as the "Blood Countess" was a nine-star-realm Arcana Master born in the 8th millennia of the 9th Epoch.
According to WAMO's database, Bathory has officially killed over 6500 young girls. Unofficially, that number might be ten tis higher.
It is believed that she baths in the blood of youthful virgins in order to keep herself youthful and beautiful.
It is also believed that she has the power to turn a human into a powerful undead species with just a bite to the neck. The affected one will stay loyal to her. What's more, the affected one can also affect the other humans and turn them into undead species that beco stronger in the dark. The term vampire is a perfect description of her.
Bathory was truly a nace. In the end, WAMO issued a warrant for her. During the Years 6xxx of the 10th Epoch, they were successful in capturing her and killing all of her subordinates as the affected humans couldn't turn back to normal.
But, this is the story cooked by the WAMO for public records.
According to the Death clan records, she is a descendant of the Blood clan who was also a contender for the clan lord.
However, she fell in love with an outsider nad Zsofia (Sophia) Bathory and married her against the wishes of the clan. As a result, she was expelled from the clan when she was only 680 years old (17-18 in human terms).
That incident turned her life for good. The hatred she had for her forr clan had shifted to human society. In a fit of rage over an argunt, she killed her partner and bathed in her blood.
Over the next 7000 years, she started to kill young girls for pleasure. But it is just to make a na.
Her plan is to amass a huge army to strike back at the Death Clan.
And as WAMO didn't find its manhunt quite successful, the Death clan took matters into its own hands.
Aelius Crescent, the young dashing 7-star realm expert (back then), started his own manhunt and finally dueled against Bathory and killed her for good.
To cover up the matter, he handed her corpse to WAMO and made it seem like the organization did it.
In fact, several feats credited to WAMO in history were actually done by the hidden clans. The world organization is the perfect cover for their actions and the organization used this to gain more popularity among the masses. It is a win-win for both parties.
"If I had to calculate her age, she must be over 14,000 years old, far older than my ancestor Qridus just like the elves. The blood clan truly doesn't fit with ours. I wonder if they joined us in the fifth epoch. Ugh… Azzy, you are getting distracted. Focus…"
Putting away his thoughts, Azzy continued to spy on the eting. He understood their entire plan for the next day.
First, Aaron will lead a group of teachers and students with him. Albert stays behind.
Using the excuse of too much waiting ti in line, he will propose a traditional travel route.
On the way, the assassins surround them. Aaron will propose working together with Azzy to fend them off while the remaining stay to protect the students. Aaron will force Azzy to work with him.
Then, after taking him into a secluded spot, all of them will attack together and kill him.
In the anti, Albert will inform the principal about the attack and asks for his assistance. He offers to guard the academy in his stead.
As the principal hurried to the wilderness and will face a legendary realm expert on the way, Albert will summon the remaining targets and directly abduct them after knocking them out.
Once Azzy is killed, Aaron will tell them about Azzy's death and the attack on the principal. He will separate them into several groups to escape in different directions.
Aaron will be with his key targets and abducts them without causing any suspicion. By the ti everyone realizes his betrayal, it will be over.
This is their grand plan for the next day, and Azzy decided to use this opportunity to put an end to this when they co out in the open instead of acting against Albert right away.
As the eting is over, Albert returned to Erald City and so was Azzy. His Erasure skill card wouldn't work against soone like Aaron and he doesn't want this white-haired fellow to realize that he was following Albert. So, he parted ways with Albert at the entrance and returned to Egrein City through world portals for personal business.

MindSync Company HQ, Egrein City tropolitan area, Northern Qudour;
In the chairman's office, the recent winner of the most erging Northern Qudour CEOs of the century, Neal Edwards was busy in a eting with a client.
The company deals with AI technology, majorly providing virtual assistants for smartphones, computers, and other electronic devices, facial recognizing software for governnt organizations including the police departnt, and is currently working on a virtual pilot feature for the flying cars and jetpack suits.
"Uhh… we ran into so problems in test runs. For a fully functioning prototype, we need more ti, Ms. Lyra."
"But, you have already delayed the project by two months already."
"I know but as you can see, we have completed our product. We just need to run a few more test runs to make sure that there is no problem during its public appearance."
As Neal Edwards was trying to convince his client to give them a little bit more ti and postpone their launch, the door was knocked twice and his P.A. cos in to inform him that soone wanted to et him urgently.
"Can't you see I'm busy?" Neal fired at his employee and scolded her for interrupting his eting with a client.
His assistant bitterly smiled and replied, "Sir, it is a captain-ranked officer from WAMO's Special Forces. And he says he doesn't have ti to wait."
"WAMO's special forces?" Neal Edwards was startled for a second and he imdiately apologized to the client before cutting off the call.
Azzy then entered the office in his casual attire but there was a frown on Neal, sensing Azzy's soul realm as the latter wasn't sealing it for so reason.
As Azzy took his seat, Neal said, "You look quite familiar, although I cannot put my finger on it. So, what is it officer that you want to talk to ?"
Azzy glanced around and pushed forth his palm. A noise-canceling barrier was erected around them from one side of the table to the other side of the table.
Neal didn't pay attention to the barrier.
Placing his elbows on the table, Azzy leaned to the front and said, "Originally, I didn't plan on using my ID to force myself in like this but your aura made do it."
"My aura? What are you talking about?" Neal really has no idea what Azzy was talking about.
Azzy didn't offer any explanation to clarify Neal's doubt and just said, "I have so questions that need to be answered. The sooner you give the truth, the sooner you will get rid of ."
As Neal gestured for him to go on while wondering whether it is about a case, the latter then asked, "Let's start with a basic one. Why do you have the death energy?"
Neal's eyes widened at once.
