Undying Warlord

It was not difficult to find the Sanctum keys inside the military base.

They were not actually well hidden and with a Vampire by his side, Dilan got his hands on them within minutes.

“Do you trust Clerens?” Victoria suddenly asked.

She behaved as if she had never been affected by Dilan’s blood and as if she had not tried to pounce on him just a few minutes ago.

This caused Dilan’s lips to curl upward.

“There is no reason for me to trust him. It usually takes time to trust someone, if you’re not sure whether someone is trustworthy or not,” Dilan answered calmly as he eyed Victoria.

“What about me then?” She asked, understanding the meaning behind Dilan’s words.

“I left one of my severely injured people by your side. That should be more than enough to tell you that I don’t think badly of you,” Dilan answered in all honesty.

He couldn’t say that he trusted her wholeheartedly but it was not as if he doubted her in any way.

Victoria might be a Vampire but it was not something that mattered to Dilan. She seemed genuine when she said that she had been lonely and her behavior suggested that she didn’t try to hide anything.

Victoria looked a bit displeased with Dilan’s answer but she didn’t probe him further about it.

“What exactly is this Sanctum even? Clerens never told me much about it. He just wanted me to join him to enter it,” Dilan tried to switch the topic when he recalled Clerens and the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord.

The Vampire Lord was the Lord who ruled over all the Vampires of the Shikan plains. In the hierarchy, he was immediately next in line after the King of Vampires. His bloodline had been pure and he was powerful.

However, Clerens said that the old Vampire Lord was killed by the new Vampire Lord and that the King of Vampires had created a Sanctum for the Old Vampire Lord to rest in all eternity.

“Only the descendants of the Old Vampire Lord were supposed to be able to enter the Sanctum. However, the King of Vampires wanted to make things more interesting by creating other ways to enter the Sanctum and to get to know the secrets only a Vampire Lord could procure.

The King of Vampires made it quite difficult for direct descendants to enter the Sanctum as well. After all, it required the five Sanctum keys to be entered,” Victoria revealed in addition to the information Dilan had already procured.

“So the Sanctum is just the grave of your old man?” Dilan asked, slightly confused. He had expected it to be some secret heaven for Vampires to grow stronger. The fact that it was just a grave came across as quite a disappointment.

Victoria shook her head at Dilan’s question, attracting his interest once again.

“It might be the Old Vampire Lord’s grave, but it is also considered the Legacy hall built by the King of Vampires. Anyone who could enter the Sanctum, pass all the trails, and enter the innermost area of the Sanctum is said to gain the power to become the next Vampire Lord. There are also all kinds of treasures inside the Sanctum,” Victoria didn’t need to go into detail because all the information was rather useless for Dilan.

Nonetheless, he was thankful for the information he received.

“Well, whatever. It might not be useful for me but if that place is nearby and safe, I can move there with my group,” Dilan remarked.

If it required the five Sanctum keys and the blood of a noble Vampire, preferably the blood of the Old Vampire Lord’s descendant to enter the Sanctum, it was definitely safe to enter.

The more Dilan thought about it, the better he liked the idea of moving there as long if they would have to give up their base in Shiron.

He smiled a bit, only for Victoria to start frowning deeply.

“Move there…in the Sanctum? I don’t think that it’s safe there…” She could only say, but Dilan didn’t seem to be listening to her anymore.

“Let’s go out, we should return to the Blue Star camp. Clerens is probably eagerly waiting for us,” Dilan said smiling sheepishly.

Victoria couldn’t understand how Dilan could switch topics so quickly but she meekly followed him. It was not as if she had anything to say, to begin with, when it came to Dilan.

He wouldn’t listen to her, either way.

When Dilan and Victoria left the military base, they saw that the others had collected all the Essence crystals. They were already waiting for Dilan to leave the battlefield. The entire battlefield was overflowing with corpses, blood, and body parts and all three, Kuhn, Silas and Oliver started to feel uncomfortable at the gruesome sight.

The three had been able to kill dozens of opponents, but now that everything was over they felt like vomiting. Dilan felt that this was both understandable and a bit like the behavior of a hypocrite.

But it was not as if anyone in his group was perfectly normal. He had taken in a lonely noble Vampire, who was not right in her head either. Victoria might seem normal at the first glance, but she was just horny.

Dilan had noticed this more than once, but he didn’t mind it. It was quite funny and amusing, and a change from the serious atmosphere.

Returning to the Blue Star camp wouldn’t take long under normal circumstances, but Silas could only move slowly. There was no way that he could run around as if he had never been injured.

He was not Dilan, after all. That was one of the few reasons why they got their hands on a large van. In a matter of three hours, they reached the Blue Star camp, where they were welcomed by Clerens. He looked brightly at Dilan because he could sense that the remaining four Sanctum keys were in his possession.

When Victoria got out of the van, Clerens stiffened and his expression froze. He looked at Dilan in shock and was unable to say anything.

“Your expression is funny, Clerens. Are you not happy to see us return alive?” Dilan asked lightly, only for his expression to turn icy.

“O-of course, I’m happy to see that all of you returned alive…but you do know that there is a new member in your group, right? D-do you know who that is?” Clerens stuttered in utter disbelief. He couldn’t believe his eyes and rubbed them several times, hoping that his eyes and mind were tricking him.

But even after rubbing them several times, his mind didn’t allow him to comprehend what was going on.

“I do know who Victoria is. Thanks for your concern,” Dilan replied as he turned his head to look at the others. Silas looked much better than before but it was still quite obvious that he was not well enough to return home.

“But…she is a psycho!?!? How can you act that nonchalant?! If you don’t kill her, she will kill you sooner or later!” Clerens sounded truly agitated. Dilan was not sure why that was the case but he didn’t really care about it.

It was his decision what he would do with his people, and who he would accept in his group.

“I won’t kill her,” He answered slowly and calmly, and intently observed Clerens’ reaction.

“She killed my entire clan!! If you don’t kill her, I will!” Clerens snarled as his eyes turned crimson red. His fangs and claws grew before a second passed but Dilan could only look pitifully at Clerens.

“Well, good luck killing her,” Dilan said nonchalantly and stepped aside before pointing in Victoria’s direction.

“Ey, greenhorn, do you want your head bashed like your entire family?!” A cold and threatening voice reached his ears, followed by a heavy pressure that weighed on Clerens all of a sudden.

Before a quarter of a second elapsed, Victoria vanished to reappear by Clerens’ side. Her hand was pressed tightly against his chest, slowly freezing his skin and bones.

“Maybe a sculpture of you would be even better, don’t you think so, Darling~?” Victoria asked, her head flicking to Dilan as she revealed a beautiful smile,

“Darling?!? Not again!!”
