News had reached many these days that a new Bloody Vampire General had been announced to the World, so many rushed here as soon as they had the chance.
High-ranking people from the other Kingdoms were sent, but so of the Bloody Vampire Generals were possibly among them.
This was a simple consecration, but it had to do with the world's power structure.
They were inserting a new power into the World that could shake the power structure shortly.
Also, the fact that he received 1 Star at the ti of his announcent showed that he had accomplished great things.
How powerful was he? How young was he? What is his identity?
Most of the current Bloody Vampire Generals ca from wealthy families, but they are people who have strived on their own to achieve their great statuses. Did he belong to a family of Dukes or Marquises? Perhaps he was a rich man without nobility.
The other case is that he was the powerful subordinate of a Heir. Considering the Heirs in this Kingdom, their eyes were on the Heirs of the Murphys and the eldest son of the Allens. Who of them got the rank this ti?
Still, many others sohow congratulated the King, with obvious intentions.
They thought it was his daughter who had attained the rank.
After all, besides the Kingdom's youngest Army General, who else deserved that rank in this Kingdom?
Still, the King simply smiled mysteriously and did not say much.
Soon, it was ti for the consecration, and the gates opened.
A giant red carpet was laid from the central part of the square to a massive gate through which the Bloody Vampire General would exit.
The decorations around the square were red and gold, while the chandeliers were illuminated in gold and white.
The setting had been prepared to give the feeling of light mystery and bloody battles.
The red of the decorations looked like blood and was everywhere. Even the red of the carpet was the sa as the decorations.
Light golden lights added to the elegance on each side of the carpet.
Soon, a trumpet sounded in the surroundings, and everyone fell silent.
The sound of the trumpet spread to every corner of the vast capital city, so everyone who had so knowledge of the army in every corner of the city made a salute and stood in that position, facing the castle.
It was a sign of respect for the birth of a legend.
The trumpet's sound bood, as did the drums, but after a mont, everything returned to normal as a person erged from the vast open doors.
Today, Matt was wearing one of the costus of a Bloody Vampire General, the one he had been bestowed with earlier. But it was better adorned with so gold-colored chains and other ornants, which signified 'greatness'.
He walked down that huge red carpet as if it were routine, maintaining his typical elegance while the sound reigned throughout the square.
From side to side, nurous people were sitting, staring at him.
The fact that he was so young shocked them, and they didn't even know how to react.
It wasn't until Matt stood before Dawid Lewis and others in the Kingdom that several of them reacted.
"Isn't the new General too young? How could they make soone so young a Bloody Vampire General? Has the King gone mad?" one person in the crowd asked quietly.
It was the first of many whispers.
Until the situation stopped being whispers and they literally started talking.
The King stared at them, "Silence." He said coldly, causing everyone to shut their mouths.
The King then looked at Matt and nodded to him.
"To complete the bloody oath that I, Dawid Lewis, recently swore, I will today enshrine Matthew Dietrich as one of the Bloody Vampire Generals."
"The situation on the frontier will rit the consecration to be short, but that doesn't an his status should not be recognized as such." He spoke.
He looked at one of the high-ranking people at his side. This person advanced, placing a long sword adorned with red and gold in the King's hands.
It was a curved sword and edged on one side only, like a Japanese katana of the Earth.
The King then grasped it, and on the other side, a man stepped forward to squirt so blood upward. Imdiately, the King unsheathed the sword and threw a blow towards the blood.
The sword was painted red from the blood, and the rest of the blood fell on Matt.
The King then thrust the sword into the ground, and a huge book appeared out of nowhere, floating in the sky. This book began to descend towards the King's hands.
And he shouted, "By Royal Mandate of the King of the Dark Kingdom, Dawid Lewis, I will today consecrate Matthew Dietrich as a 1-Star Bloody Vampire General! This rank is irrevocable unless the announced commits a cri against the Vampire Race!"
His words echoed throughout the square, and he held the record book.
From now on, Matthew Dietrich's na will be written in this book.
Imdiately, Dawid Lewis grabbed a pen from the man beside him and filled it with bloody ink, ready to write this na.
Still, so people of very high rank were not convinced.
So much so that many stood up at that mont.
"King Dawid Lewis, wait a minute!"
The first to speak was a man with a thick voice. He removed his black clothes imdiately, revealing his robes as a Bloody Vampire General.
The King stared at him after this.
"General, please speak." Dawid replied.
"I am opposed to this. It makes no sense. Bloody Vampire Generals tend to be chosen from the younger generation; I can't deny that. But it is always the younger generation who have over 10,000 power and have done various accomplishnts for the vampire race. What could a small student have completed? I have connections in the Vampire Academy, and I am sure he does not belong to the First Academy.
How is it possible for him to be promoted to such a high rank?
"I cannot accept it; if you promote him to be a Bloody Vampire General, not only will your na be tarnished, but the na of all those who strive day in and day out to obtain the rank, like Miss Lewis." He spoke firmly and softly without raising his voice too much and without disrespecting Dawid Lewis.
And the fact that he brought up the subject of his daughter caused Dawid Lewis to frown.
But, following him, several people stood up to voice their opinion.
"I agree with the General!"
Nurous voices of older people and a few younger ones.
Among those was a young man who, like the previous one, removed a black cloak from his back to show his identity.
He was not a Bloody Vampire General, but his status was high. The clothes he was wearing right now were a uniform of the Kingdom. He did not represent the army.
He represented the Heirs to the Throne!
He was a respected and recognized person in the KKingdom
He glared at the King.
"King Dawid, I respect you and am grateful to you for giving the opportunity to be an Heir to the Throne. But this ti, I have to oppose you. Miss Lewis should be in that rank now. That you would pass over her accomplishnts to bestow that rank on a student like him is a mockery to those of us who are trying to achieve great things in life. I disagree."
His voice echoed throughout the place. Once again, he used the King's daughter as currency to get Dawid Lewis to desist from this.
Dawid Lewis stared at him for a mont.
