Undying Warlord

Chapter 299 The Bitch & The Whore

“Aren’t you just a coward that is scared of dying?” Victoria asked with a sneer. She stared deep in Sven’s eyes but ended up being disgusted by what she saw.

“Just to clarify, the noble groups you mentioned are called families, or clans and they are unlikely to collude with other families because they want to keep all the benefits of the Sanctum for themselves,” Victoria said while her eyes were still ice-cold, and were lingering on Sven, who was getting uncomfortable.

Only the fact that Victoria calmly rested her body against Dilan was somewhat reassuring because their leader would intervene if Victoria were to act all of a sudden.

However, Dilan was not thinking about saving anyone because he could tell that Victoria wouldn’t do something stupid right now. His mind was deep in thoughts about something Victoria told them in the Van.

‘Vampire hierarchy…we should be able to exploit their hierarchy…’

The hierarchy of Vampire clans was rigid and received a bit too much importance in the Vampire society and nobody was ever able to transcend the threshold of their bloodline without the King’s support.

In the end, that meant the Vampires wouldn’t fight together because the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord and the Instance Dungeon inside the Sanctum were something all of them wanted to enter.

“We will have to fight a handful of clans at once, at most. That is also only the case if we’re unlucky,” Dilan shared his opinion. The others nodded their heads and the tension in the room decreased drastically. Everyone was worried about the worst-case scenario but it looked like things weren’t actually that bad.

Dilan had been away only for a few days and everyone could feel that his strength had increased tremendously. If that was how much all Ascenders could improve by absorbing Blood Essences, it would be worth a shot. This was also something Yvonne agreed to.

“It won’t even be necessary to fight thousands of Vampires at once. The families and clans that are the closest to the Sanctum might arrive within a short span of time but even they shouldn’t be fighting together. If we make use of their rivalry, the Vampires all around us will cease to exist!” Yvonne seemed to have calmed down and she didn’t glare daggers at Victoria when she shared the strategy in her mind.

However, her eyes darted to Victoria the moment she spoke the last words. This inevitably increased the tension in the room, which Dilan noticed with a faint smile on his lips.

‘Interesting,’ That was the only thought in Dilan’s mind as he looked from Victoria to Yvonne.

Victoria was unaffected despite Yvonne’s provocation and she was even smiling in return.

“If you have anything against me, we can fi–” Victoria started to speak but she was interrupted by Ailee, who suddenly joined the conversation as well by clearing her throat and trying to distract them.

“But before we can make use of the Vampire clans’ rivalry, we will have to come up with a few strategies to fight Vampires. We are not Dilan and based on the way I view their combat prowess even ordinary Vampires will be stronger than our average Tier-1 Ascender!” Ailee quickly added while sweat trickled down her temples.

She had felt the need to intervene in whatever Victoria was about to say, otherwise, the meeting would end in a big brawl between the rivals of Dilan’s love interests.

Of course, Ailee wanted to avoid that, but she also wanted to convince everyone that it was necessary to have a strategy to fight the masses of Vampires, whether there were thousands of Vampires or just multiple waves with hundreds of them.

“It’s only natural that we need to learn how to fight while utilizing our advantages. The Vampire families that will come after us know nothing about us if we have Victoria by our side. She told me that she is willing to reveal the special abilities of the noble Vampires who will attack us.

This will give us an advantage and the ability to change our strategies accordingly!

We can also split up the Sanctum Keys to create several groups to further distribute the pressure on everyone and enlarge the battlefield. This is just an idea of mine and we can speak about it when everyone accepts that we will fight the Vampire clans,” Dilan spoke calmly but his eyes were gleaming in excitement.

He was quite happy to be fighting the various Vampire clans. According to Victoria, they were stronger than the Mihorl clan. This may sound like bad news for others but Dilan actually liked it. If the others wouldn’t want to deal with the noble Vampires, Dilan was more than ready to kill all of them on his own.

He would gain all the benefits on his own in that case, which was why he wouldn’t feel the need to complain if someone was unwilling to fight the noble Vampires.

However, it didn’t look like anyone was interested in Dilan’s joy as most people at the gathering were forced to keep turning their heads to look at the sisters and Victoria. The tension between them was intense and nobody wanted to be caught in their fights.

“So you will betray your entire race? Looks like we will need to be careful about you as well…” Kathrine suddenly said, her voice quiet while her eyes seemed to be overflowing with hatred when looking at Victoria. Dilan raised his eyebrows in surprise. He had not expected the usually calm and composed Kathrine to act like this all of a sudden.

“Kath, what’s wrong with you?” Dilan asked almost immediately, his expression clearly showing his confusion. Kathrine was stupefied for a moment as she had not expected him to side with Victoria. The horrified expressions on her face made Victoria laugh out loud, rubbing salt to Kathrine’s injury.

“Bitch, you know nothing about me. Why are you talking to me like I’m a hypocrite? I bet you’ve killed humans before as well, so don’t even think that you’re any better than me. Get down from your imaginary throne and act like a mature person, little brat!” Victoria continued to laugh mockingly after she finished speaking. Her words were like a searing hot knife that pierced deep into Kathrine’s gut.

Kathrine had killed humans before and she didn’t feel bad about it because all of them had been evil in her opinion. Victoria would do exactly the same; kill the Vampires that were evil in her opinion.

All Vampire clans that attacked them were considered to be their enemies and one could label them evil. Thus, Victoria was actually helping them a lot if she were to reveal the noble clans’ secrets when Dilan and his group were to be attacked.

However, even if that was the case, Kathrine didn’t like Victoria and the way she acted. It was almost as if their group’s King had suddenly found his Queen. This thought was something Kathrine hated to the core and the light provocations Victoria issued were more than enough for her emotions to overflow.

“Did you just call me bitch?” Kathrine asked while gritting her teeth. She was fuming in rage and soon lightning currents began to circulate around her entire body. She stood up from her chair without hesitation, indicating that she was ready to beat Victoria into a pulp.

“Oh, fuck it…” Ailee’s groan could be heard through the entire room and there was not a single person who couldn’t feel Ailee’s emotions. The situation was fucked up and a fight was unavoidable. Looking at Kathrine dead in the eye, Victoria got up as well.

Oddly enough, Dilan was smiling lightly when he said something to Victoria. He was clearly enjoying the situation!

Victoria’s right hand lightly caressed Dilan’s chin before she finally averted her attention to Kathrine.

“You act like a bitch, so I called you one. Do you think your attitude is helping Dilan to lead these cowards into war? The Shikan plains will become a warzone, irrespective of whether Dilan throws the Sanctum keys somewhere thousands of kilometers away from this base or not. Everything has been initiated and the chain reaction has set off.

Blood and death will engulf the Shikan plains and those who are too weak will die. Will you be someone, who helps Dilan to save the people he holds dear, or will you drag him down because you are an emotionally unstable kid?” Victoria provoked Kathrine by throwing facts at her as bluntly as possible.

This was not how Victoria would usually act because she would just attack Kathrine and kill her if the young Ascender were to be her enemy.

But Dilan had requested something odd from her, which was why Victoria ended up throwing provocations at Kathrine instead of directly challenging her to fight.

“Provoke her. I want to see how she will react,” Dilan had whispered to her without intending to tell anyone what he actually wanted to figure out.

He was currently smiling as he looked at the situation that unfolded in front of him.

‘Will you back off after getting attacked, or will you face her?’ Dilan wondered with a knowing expression on his face. He knew that Kathrine could gauge Victoria’s combat prowess.

Victoria was stronger than Kathrine, by far, at that. However, something Dilan had not expected to happen, happened, which caused his smile to brighten.

Yvonne entered the fray!

“How about you stop calling my sister a bitch? You act like a whore and nobody calls you that, so stop acting like you are better than anyone here!”
