Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 523: The Vampires Show Up

-----

Several figures suddenly entered the Dark Shadow Sect, they were all sharing the same features, such as incredibly pale skin, crimson-red eyes, and strangely colored hair, such as red, blue, and even purple hair.

They were all wearing magic-infused equipment, tight black leather clothes covered in tight armor over their bodies, of dark and red colors and gothic motifs. The weapons they held were enhanced with curses, and they seemed to be holding incredible power within them.

The group was not the largest, at only four, the usual number these beings traveled with.

Indeed, they were a widely known being that was well known for being akin to drinking the blood of people for sustenance, abhor sunlight, silver, fire, and light magic, and that had a favoritism for dark clothes.

They were Vampires.

They came from the same place the ones that attacked the Ice Moon Sect came from and were led here by "Red" the Vampire Immortal that commanded a large family of Vampires in the secluded areas of the Jotunheim continent.

The group of four Vampires were being led by a tall and stoic Ice Giant Vampire, who was wearing a full set of black armor, resembling a gigantic knight made of black steel. His weapon was an enormous axe made of this very steel, surging with a crimson-red aura of dread…

The man looked down at the person in front of him, the Dark Shadow Sect Master… the other three Vampires were of varied sizes, one was a pure giant, not confused with ice or fire giants, while the other was a human woman, and the fourth an elven woman…

The three were smaller compared to the ice giant, whose power exuded a gigantic aura of darkness and blood.

The phantom of Black looked at the figure of the stoic, red-eyed ice giant who was incredibly pale, but still blue-skinned, with short silvery-white hair and with half of his face covered in black armor.

"So you're the leader?" asked the Sect Master.

"Yes, I have been sent here by our Great Empress for the task of aiding you into the destruction of the sects you're aiming for, she had said you possess an artifact which you can use to directly communicate with her… Her goals are more than what I had said, however, but she prefers to speak with you and the one named "Black" that is using you as his vessel." Said the man, his stoic presence and his unfaltering voice even intimidated the old man in front of him.

Black had to emerge from him, resembling a monstrous specter of shadows.

He surprised the other three Vampires, while the man in front of him seemed to slightly open his eyes only for them to go back to normal, he was extremely expressionless and unmovable like a mountain.

"Hmph, you're stronger than the other three wimps behind you." Said Black, his specter resembled an endless ocean of darkness shaped as countless beasts, which somehow all merged together into the form of a humanoid being…

"It is a given, I wouldn't be a Knight Captain for nothing." Said the Vampire.

"Heh…"

The Phantom of Black quickly moved towards the red orb, touching it and quickly infusing mana into it, the orb activated and suddenly generated a projection made of red light above the sky, showing off the person he was contacting.

A beautiful Vampire woman emerged, with long, red-colored hair and eyes, pale white skin, and an indescribable beauty that couldn't be easily forgiven, her face, however, showed as sadistic smile and seemed rather cocky as well.

"So you're really back, Black! To think that in that time you attempted to become a Venerable, the world did everything it could to destroy you… Now look at you, pitiful being, made of phantoms… you're but the last remains of the soul of one of the colors that used to be the strongest a few thousand years ago…" she laughed.

"Red, it has indeed been a long time… Aside from your childish remarks over the failed attempt at becoming a Venerable of Darkness, why have you sent these Vampires here? I cannot believe you really want to aid me." Said Black.

"Well, believe me! We are siblings after all, all of us used to belong to the same place, right? So it is within our duties to protect and aid each other, brother. I want to help you in your comeback!" said the woman.

Black seemed suspicious of Red, she was acting very strangely. From what he remembered, this woman was always an asshole, a cunning and scheming woman who never held any sense of fraternity with the rest of the Colors and was always looking for personal gain. Shew as the most selfish.

Therefore, it was extremely rare for the most selfish of the colors to act so kindly out of the sudden, he began to fear that he had already fell into her palm, and was now a dancing puppet in her grater schemes…

Without realizing it beforehand, it was perhaps way too late for him to amend for it and do something that could change his situation.

At the very least, he wanted to grasp the opportunity of using her troops and find a way to take advantage of her temporary aid before things get worse and she tries something funny…

"Red… You've always beent eh most selfish of all Colors, I cannot believe you're willingly helping me, the weakest of them after my recent resurrection, without anything that you will earn out of this…" said Black.

"Well? If I manage to help you, you wouldn't mind giving me part of the inheritance of a Pseudo Venerable, right? You've barely used a small percentage of it with these pitiful mortals, so I doubt you'll have much of a difficulty in giving me another part, right?" asked Red.

"I knew it! So you wanted something out of me… my Inheritance…" sighed Black.

Red was too selfish of a woman; she would never do any act of kindness without getting something out of it…
