She couldn't believe she was being blamed for fighting back. It was as if they expected her to lie still when they tried to kill her. Just what kind of idiots were they?
"Enough of nonsense. I only need one answer from you. No matter what happened in the past, I don't hold much enmity for that. If you can answer me honestly, I promise I'll let you be free."
Lilith didn't respond right away. Instead, she observed the characters on her body.
'Even though his spell is good, there are obvious flaws in it that he didn't take into account. I should be able to get out of it, even if it takes some time. But I need to keep him distracted until then.'
"I suppose I can already guess what your question is going to be," Lilith responded after a brief thought.
"Is that so? Let me know what you think then?"
"You want to know about Castiel. That's the only reason you hadn't killed me yet, because you're worried about Castiel's revenge, isn't that right? So you want to know where he is or things about him."
"Well, you're partially right. I don't want to know where he is. I already know that he is near this city, possibly on the outskirts." Zhang chuckled. "But you are right. I do want to know about him."
Lilith grimaced, realizing that he knew where Atlas was. She didn't understand how he could do. Did he guess? However, if he knew that meant there was a good chance that he already informed the Werewolf King. Atlas was in danger. She needed to free herself fast.
"My question is simple. Why is Castiel here? Why did he send you ahead? Is his goal related to Atlan? What did you two plan?" Zhang asked straight away, tossing multiple questions at once.
"Do we really have to plan something? Can't we come here on a vacation? We were bored and thought of checking out this city. I came here before Castiel to talk to the King about this, so he doesn't misunderstand Castiel's arrival as an attack. Before I could approach him, I saw you, and here we are."
"Lilith, I think you misunderstood what I said. I don't ask you to tell me a story. I asked you for the truth. Either you tell me straight, or I'll have to use some other methods to make you speak."
"Just know. Those methods won't be nice. So you better not push me."
Zhang didn't even take a second before rejecting the story of Lilith as nonsense. Moreover, his patience was also running out since each second he had Lilith as a hostage, there was a risk of Castiel coming to look for her, so each second was important to know as much as he could about Castiel.

In another part of the Castle, Razil finished his shower. Getting dressed in his Royal Attire, he went to the balcony, gazing over his city.
The city still seemed so peaceful for now, yet Razil knew that it wasn't as peaceful as it seemed. Right outside the city, a possible battle was taking place.
If he wanted, he could've gone there alone to finish the battle swiftly, yet he didn't. He let his people handle it, believing they were capable enough. If they couldn't even handle one Blood Council Member, how were they going to handle the entire Blood Council if there was ever a war.
He treated this instance as a battle practice for them. Moreover, it wasn't even confirmed if there was even going to be a battle. There was a good chance that the Blood Council Member was here as an envoy to meet him. If he personally went there to meet the Blood Council Member, this was going to be beneath his dignity.
That's why he left it to his men while giving them Instructions to only kill that Vampire if he had no valid reason to be here. Being an Envoy who was looking for a meeting with the King was certainly a valid reason.
Standing on the balcony, Razil gazed down to notice a strange sneaking inside.

Lancaster had snuck inside the premise of the castle, yet gaining an entry inside the actual castle was the real part as he had to be careful.
After observing his surroundings, he made a mental map of the whole place, deciding on a path for his movement before finally advancing toward the main door of the castle, not realizing that a pair of eyes were watching him from the balcony.
Razil had noticed Lancaster sneaking around. Moreover, unlike the ordinary Werewolves, he had noticed much more.
His eyes briefly shone in golden shine before returning to normal. He was able to see a powerful golden aura surrounding Lancaster.
The aura was like blazing golden flames that were surrounding the young man.
A frown enveloped Razil's forehead as he noticed that aura. That aura wasn't something that an ordinary Werewolf could possess. It wasn't even an aura that every Royal Werewolf could possess. It was an aura which only the Royal Werewolves with the purest of bloodlines could possess.
"Interesting... Very interesting..."

"Stop right there!" A Werewolf commanded in a mighty voice, instructing Atlas to stop.
Atlas stopped. Only a few meters of distance remained between him and the man who had instructed. The werewolves started surrounding him.
Atlas calmly observed every movement of the werewolves that were ready to rip him to shreds. They had surrounded him from all sides, most of them already being in their Wolf Form.
Moreover, each of these werewolves appeared to be stronger and fiercer than the one he faced before. They were all bigger as well, almost twice the size of the Wolves from before.
"State your purpose for arrival." The Commanding Werewolf let out loud. "And Identify yourself!"
"I am here to meet your King. Take me to him."
Atlas didn't waste a single second in stating his purpose. If there was anyone here who could return Lilith, it was the King since he was the ruler of the werewolves who he believed had captured Lilith.
"We can't allow any random person to meet His Majesty. Identify yourself and give us your message that you want to be delivered to him. If he agrees, we'll let you in. If not, you'll have to go back."
"Good. Make sure my message reaches your King." Atlas raised his serious eyes, looking straight in the eyes of the General.
"Tell him to return Lilith to me. If he doesn't, and she comes to harm, this entire city will burn in flames of hell that can only be stopped by rivers of blood!"
