The Accidental Vampire

"You seem to know what the man was after." Atlas stopped right beside Lilith, gazing at the strange mark on the ground.

"I did hear about it, but I didn't know this was at this place..."

"And what would that be? What is the Blood Stone that the Blood Council is after."

Lilith went silent for a brief moment, not responding.

"What do you know about Progenitors? Only basic things like they were born Immortal and they were the First Vampires to walk on this earth, right?"

"Yeah. They started the entire Vampire Lineage. What about that?"

"That's not the entire truth actually," Lilith answered. "The Progenitors weren't born immortal. They were also human in the past like everyone else, in the era when there were no Vampires. The story about them being Born a Vampire is because no one knows the truth except a few people."

"The Progenitors were also humans, and they were all Orphans, living in the same place. Lord Castiel didn't tell me much about how he came to be, but he did tell me that it was because of the Blood Stone. He never told me where this Blood Stone was or how it made him a Progenitor. That's why I didn't know it was in this place."

"However, he did tell me that the Blood Stone was kept in a secure place where no one could reach without their permission. The only way to get to that place is through the Key Fragments. All Four Progenitors kept one of the four Key Fragments with them."

"I don't know how but it seems that person has managed to get the Key Fragment that was with Lord Ramiel and somehow managed to locate this place as well. He probably came to know of it from Lord Ramiel."

"He must believe that if he can get the Blood Stone, he would become a Progenitor as well."

"Can he?" Atlas asked. "Can the Blood Stone really make someone immortal?"

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ "Who knows. It's possible that it can. It's also possible that it can't anymore. All I know is that it's not safe to let that thing fall in the hands of someone else." Lilith sighed.

"How many key Fragments does one need to get to the Blood Stone? If it's all four, I doubt the Blood Stone will fall in anyone's hands that easily."

"That's the thing. I don't know how many key Fragments will work. I never had this conversation with Lord Castiel. It's possible that it'll need all four fragments, but it's also possible that just two can be enough. If only Lord Castiel were here, I could've asked. I just know that we can't take the risk. We must not let that person get to the second Key Fragment, which I'm sure he'll try to do."

"The Key Fragment that's with Atlan since the whereabouts of Lucius seems to be unknown even for him. He would definitely target Atlan in that case." Atlas realized what Lilith was trying to say. If there were more Progenitors, the world could become a much worse place, especially if those Progenitors were from Ramiel's lineage like Carlisle and Severis were.

If those people were also true Immortals, it would've been hell!

"Quite possibly, but I don't think it'll be easy for even the Blood Council to free Atlan to get Key Fragment from him," Lilith responded. "The Kingdom of Wolves isn't a place that's this easy to conquer. It stood proud even in the Era of Progenitors, let alone the era of Blood Council. So I really don't think this is worth our immediate concern, but still, we need to be careful and keep our eye on the Blood Council."

"But yeah, if we free Atlan, then things would be different. So if you really want to free him, you better do this while taking his fragment from him."ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"Will he give me the Fragment?"

"Why won't he? For a Vampire, being imprisoned by the werewolves is the most embarrassing thing they can get through. I'm sure Atlan would do anything to be freed, let alone giving up the Fragment, which is of no use to him. But remember, if we take that Fragment, it'll paint a double target on your back."

"The Blood Council won't target Atlan anymore. Instead, they will target you since you'll hold two of the Fragments."

"Two Fragments? Ah, right! The Fragment of Castiel?"

Atlas checked Castiel's pocket when he went to eternal slumber. He couldn't find anything in his pockets though.

"Where is the key Fragment of Castiel? It's not with me."

"Don't worry about it. The Key Fragment of Master is in a safe place. No one can get to it. It's better if even you don't know about that place. The less people know about it, the better. For now, we just need to focus on Lord Atlan."

"I guess I need to meet Atlan even more now. If I don't, someone else might. He's really in high demand."

Lilith rolled her eyes. "You'll be in even higher demand if someone finds out that you've returned. You have no idea. That's why I told you to keep your identity hidden. Fortunately, only Yovana and Lancaster know about you, and they won't blurt out this secret."

"Yeah. Wait... That person is about to leave this town? If he does, he might see our carriage in the distance! He will know we didn't leave. Lancaster and Yovana are alone there. We can't waste our time here! That man must be really frustrated at his failure. He would definitely kill them if he got to them first!"

Atlas picked up Lilith in his arms again before dashing in the direction of his carriage.

"Lilith, cast a Shroud!" He commanded.

Lilith cast an invisibility shroud on the two of them, making them invisible once again.

Atlas ran so fast that he did manage to catch up to the Blood Council member who was just about to enter his carriage to leave.

The young vampire felt a gust of wind fly past him as Atlas ran past him. Even though Atlas maintained some distance, the wind was still enough to affect the dark-haired Vampire, who frowned.

He didn't feel that it was a natural wind. It was as if someone had run past him, but he couldn't see anyone. First the feeling of someone watching him, and now this?

He was sure that something was definitely wrong here. One time could be his misconception but not the second time. He gazed in the direction of the town's exit remembering the four guests he had seen before.
