Chapter 94 [Bonus Chapter] Second Highest In Command
A day after Kira saved the vampire prisoners, the Branch Leader of Vampire Clan stationed in Golden City contacted the Main Headquarters.
He needed to report the important happenings in the city which involved the vampire called Nightwalker. He wondered if the main HQ sent this vampire as a spy.
If this was a secret mission from the main HQ then he would not wonder if other higher-ups were not aware of the Nightwalker\'s existence.
This time he was facing one of the pillars of the Vampire Clan, Lady Victoria Bancroft. She belonged to the Noble Family of Vampires, a pureblood. She was as strong as General Raizel.
Victoria was once betrothed to Kira. However, he refused to accept the union between them as he was already in love with Selene.
Many vampires were against his relationship with Selene. The elders and prominent families showed their disapproval but Kira fought his love for Selene only to be betrayed by her in the end.
Victoria was the most qualified candidate to become the Queen of Vampires. But Kira was so stubborn, rejecting her to be his woman.
Despite the rejection she received, she didn\'t show any hatred towards Kira. Perhaps, she did hate him but she was good at concealing her feelings and emotions.
Now, Victoria Bancroft served as the second highest in command when it came to making decisions for the Vampire Clan. She was assisting General Raizel to strengthen and restore the power of the vampires.
"Elder Devon, I was about to contact you. I heard from the other higher-ups that several vampires were in danger of getting executed by the Triple W in the Golden City. Tell me more about the situation there." Victoria spoke with authority. She was communicating with the branch leader through a video call.
The elder showed courtesy to Victoria before speaking to her with utmost respect.
"Lady Victoria, I am here to relay an important message to you. Don\'t be troubled by this concern as it was already solved last night. A vampire whose identity we didn\'t know rescued the vampire prisoners inside the Triple W headquarters. I want to ask you if you know that vampire who called himself a Nightwalker."
"No casualties?"
"None, our Lady. Everyone was alive and safe!"
A stunned look of surprise flashed on Victoria\'s face. This was the most shocking piece of news she had heard so far. A vampire saved the other vampires, infiltrating the Triple W Headquarters! No one got injured or died. How could that be possible?
"I don\'t know who that vampire is. Everyone is busy with our training and missions. We never mobilized someone to go to the Golden City as we were trying to avoid any encounter with the witches and werewolves."
The two became silent for a moment, still puzzled by Nightwalker\'s identity.
"You should find him… we need him. Mobilize your men to search for this Nightwalker," Victoria gave her command, feeling intrigued about this mysterious vampire who suddenly appeared from the time they needed him most.
This was the first time that a certain vampire tried to fight the Triple W heads-on. He attacked them in Northleaf Forest and infiltrated Triple W to rescue the vampire prisoners.
Victoria was also aware of the consequences of his actions. The werewolf clan and members of Triple W were angered by these incidents.
It only meant that they would try to target and torment more vampires just to vent their anger and frustration. Werewolves would become more ruthless and merciless towards the vampires.
They would try to get revenge for this insult and mockery caused to them by this Nightwalker. Aside from that, the Triple W would heighten their security further as they learned their lesson from the previous incident.
"Consider it done, Lady Victoria. I will not stop until I find the Nightwalker and present him to you."
Victoria nodded her head, acknowledging the elder\'s determination. She would be looking forward to meeting that vampire. She wished that Nightwalker would join forces with them in fighting Dominique Silvano and his men.
"Elder Devon, our forces are now prepared. I might visit the Golden City myself. We will slowly invade the city without the werewolves knowing. There\'s no need to hide and remain quiet. It\'s time to strike back."
"You are our hope, Lady Victoria. We trust you and General Raizel. The future of the vampire clan depends on both of you. Rest assured that you have our support here." Elder Devon expressed his loyalty to her and Raizel.
Her lips curled up in a faint smile, feeling glad that their fellow vampires were putting their trust on them.
"We will not let you down. We will bring the glory back to our clan. No more slavery! A peaceful world for us, vampires. Kingdom Phantasia will be ours once again! We will never forget our grudge and punish the werewolves and witches who made our kind suffer miserably."
"There will be bloodbath, but we will ensure that their blood will be spilled, not ours!" Victoria\'s words were filled with conviction.
A gleam of hope could be seen in Elder Devon\'s eyes. He believed in her. Soon, their suffering would end. Werewolves and witches should experience the same hardship they experienced from them.
Once the vampire clan won this war, they would not spare werewolves anymore. They would not follow the way Kira ruled the Kingdom Phantasia.
Uniting all creatures? No way! They would not give them the opportunity to betray the Vampire Clan once again. If they had to annihilate the werewolf clan, then they would do that. Witches would not be an exception as they also became an instrument to torment and punish the vampires.
"Do you have any more to say? I have to meet the other higher-ups in ten minutes." Victoria asked him for one last time.
"Oh, My Lady… I think you should know this as well although this is just a rumor spreading around."
"What is it?"
"There is a rumor going around here saying that the previous Vampire King, Kira Alaric is alive."
Victoria\'s expression changed at the mention of Kira\'s name. An icy glint flickered through her eyes but it disappeared in an instant.
"Kira Alaric is dead. Catch the person who is spreading that false rumor. Who knows it might be one propaganda of the werewolf clan to create confusion among us."
"I understand, Lady Victoria. Put your mind at ease as the majority of us don\'t believe that rumor."
