Chapter 556 Fledgling
Outside the Vampire's room, the Arcanists of Kirkham City started sharing their opinions.
"Let's escape! If we all used our power, there's no way the castle walls would stop us! We can just forcibly make a way out…" Leonel voiced out as he knew that Denise had a way to open a path if it was really necessary.
"Since the Vampire is still busy with Drake's squads, this is the ideal time. I agree with Leonel." Roy chimed in.
"Let the official Arcanists deal with that beast. Scouting the Vampire should be a good enough job. Even if we don't get the whole reward, we will still get paid for it."
"That's right! We can't risk our lives here. This is even a foreign land! I don't want to die in such a place."
The other leaders said. As for the rest, they stayed silent but still agreed.
There were only three people who seemed to have different plans.
They were Clovis, Pearl, and Kai, the former member of the Order of Fatality. They didn't show signs of approval and remained silent.
Kai suddenly stepped forward and looked at the leaders.
"You guys can go ahead. I will try to fight the Vampire. Even if I can't win, I have a secret technique that will let me escape." Kai said mysteriously.
Roland nodded at this since he knew that Kai wouldn't be able to leave the Cult if he didn't have an amazing way of escape.
However, he was still concerned.
"There's no need to take a chance, Kai. There is no way to beat that Vampire, even if it's you. The situation isn't right. You will be facing the Vampire in his home. The right way is to destroy the castle and let the sunlight in. However, none of us here have destructive spells that could obliterate the Formation Arts and demolish the sturdy castle. Silver Bullets and mid-grade Holy Water will not work either. Well, unless you want to ask for the Masked Devil Incarnate's help." Roland said with a helpless smile, as he knew the limits of the Arcanists here.
However, Kai was still determined to stay and fight.
This time, Clovis finally spoke up.
"I'll also stay..." Clovis said with a mysterious smile on his face.
"Me too..." Pearl added.
"I suppose I should let them in now." The Vampire said as he activated the seal on the door to open it up.
After some creaking noise, the door opened slightly, and the people outside seized this chance to come in.
As soon as Clovis stepped inside, he saw everyone's corpses. They all shriveled up as if all the blood from their bodies was drained.
It was such a brutal and most likely an agonizing experience for these young Arcanists.
However, Clovis didn't feel anything about their deaths except for a bit of pity for not extracting them when they were still alive. After all, corpses would have lower attributes in the Extraction process.
Nevertheless, his reaction was probably due to his Perfect Incorruptible Body as well. He already knew how it was affecting his mood in some cases after all.
"Good job coming back here." The Vampire suddenly said to the person behind Clovis and Pearl.
It was none other than Kai.
Clovis didn't seem surprised as he smiled. It was the same for Pearl, who seemed to be quite indifferent to what was happening.
Kai, on the other hand, bowed at the Vampire and quickly went to his side.
Kai handed over a scroll and a bottle containing a potent essence of a creature.
Clovis didn't stop Kai and let everything happen.
He was simply observing as if everything was under his control.
"Hmm... The two of you weren't shocked... Do you know his identity from the start." The Vampire asked after keeping the scroll and the bottle inside his pocket.
To be honest, the Vampire was already using his charm ability but it didn't seem to work.
He also tried the blood manipulation spell just now, but for some reason, it wasn't affecting the two as if they were immune to spells!
Clovis smiled and nodded.
"Yes... Your fledgling isn't even using a high-level Artifact to conceal his scent. It's not hard to figure out his identity."
