123 You are very mean, father.
‘Heh. All other races standing against us Vampires,
How so Familiar
How so Nostalgic.’
Azriel thought inwardly as a small smile appeared on his face.
However, soon, a frown appeared on his face.
‘What? What was I thinking?
Familiar? Nostalgic?
When has this happened before?
Didn’t the Vampires and all other races in Yrniel have a good relationship since the start?
We survived because we relied on each other after all.
Just what non-sense was I thinking?’
“Hey Hey, what the hell are you thinking?” Seeing that Azriel has still not replied yet, Dagahra tapped on his shoulder.
Azriel then glanced at Dagahra and the Dragon continued,
“Didn’t you have enough fun?
The Vampires you created already won.”
Suddenly, a small smile appeared on Azriel’s face.
“They still haven’t defeated the Dragons and the Demons though.”
Hearing that, Dagahra snorted.
“Oh yeah? You think they can win against my children?”
“Well, of course, they can.
All I have to do is to convert around 100,000 humans into Vampires, then, I need to wait for a few thousand years and allow them to grow up, then we will have the same number of soldiers and I am sure Vampires would come out victorious.”
Azriel told his plan to Dagahra.
Dagahra looked at Azriel and then he shook his head,
“Sounds tiring…”
“It is…” Azriel nodded his head with a bored look on his face.
This…
It wasn’t as fun as he thought..
He had to wait for 800 years before the Vampires could do anything, he did enjoy it when the Vampires won against the humans, but after that, things got boring again.
He waited for 800 years…
And that’s what he got…
A few hours of excitement…
“Ugghh… I applaud you for working so hard for something so fruitless man…”
Sikara, the Lion Kin Progenitor muttered with a tired smile on his face.
“Hahaha~ Indeed indeed, I applaud you as well~”
“Hahahaha~”
*Clap* *Clap* *Clap*
The Progenitors started laughing as well. Not only that, but they took a step forward and started clapping for Azriel as well.
Azriel just stood there with a thick vein that had popped on his head.
“I really want to kill you bastards!” He glared at the other progenitors.
“Are you going to attack your friends just because we teased you a little? You are so heartless, Azriel,”
Saphira muttered with a dramatic look on her face.
“Tsk Tsk, at least try to act better, to think you spent centuries learning how to act and fool others and are still bad at it.” Azriel turned towards Saphira and snorted.
“Indeed indeed, Saphira, you should just give up.
Acting isn’t something you can handle.” Faustina laughed.
“Hahaha~”
Now, the progenitors started laughing at the female dragon.
“Hmph! Hmph! I’ll show you once I am better at it!” Saphira snorted.
“Sure Sure.”
The Progenitors nodded jokingly and then, they started talking about other things, it has been quite a while since they met each other after all.
Though they don’t have much to share since all they did was lay around lazily, it was still interesting to talk to each other after so long.
The conversation continued for a few hours, however, suddenly, Caesar recalled what he was here for in the first place and stepped up.
“Guys…”
“What?” a Demon Progenitor questioned.
“Don’t forget what we are here for.
We need to stop Azriel, else he will destroy my race.”
Caesar muttered.
Azriel was about to nod in approval, however, a small smile appeared on Dagahra’s face and he chuckled,
“How about we let him continue,
Let him convert 100,000 more humans into Vampires, then let him wait for a few thousand years, then let him fight against the dragons and the demons,
Only when the Vampires win against all other races in this world should he stop.
What do you guys think?”
Dagahra questioned.
The Progenitors looked at each other and started thinking,
Vampires ruling Yrniel, completely dominating all other races, then, the Progenitors of the races step up and fight back the vampires,
Won’t that be entertaining?
The Progenitors started smiling.
This would be entertaining indeed.
Being the underdog and overpowering the Ruler of the world.
That sounds so much fun~
The Progenitors started fantasizing,
Even Caesar was the same.
As for the 100,000 virgin humans being converted into Vampires?
Meh, humans can always give birth to more.
Plus, it won’t be fun if it wasn’t hard.
Caesar’s smile widened, however,
“No. I won’t do it.”
Azriel shook his head.
“Huh?” Dagahra frowned.
“Why not?”
“It is too boring.
And I hate the fact that you guys will use it for your entertainment.”
Azriel answered.
“Oi Oi, just how petty can you be?”
A Demon Progenitor couldn’t help but question.
Azriel glanced at the Demon Progenitor and smiled brightly,
“You guys dare to laugh at me, right?
I won’t let you have the entertainment you crave for.
Hahaha~”
Azriel started laughing.
“What a bastard.” Dagahra snorted.
Azriel, however, completely ignored his words and turned toward Caesar,
“Caesar, my friend, I apologize for what I have done to you people, I shouldn’t have gone against the ‘Will of Yrniel’.
Don’t worry though, since I have realized my mistake, I promise you that I won’t convert any more humans into Vampires.” Azriel looked at Caesar and smiled brightly.
Seeing that smile, Caesar’s face twitched in frustration.
If only…
If only this man could convert more humans into vampires…
It would have been so great.
“Are you really not going to do it?” He questioned, hoping that Azriel would change his decision.
However, Azriel took his words in a different manner and smiled even brightly.
“You don’t have to worry, I am a man of my words, once I said I won’t do it, I won’t do it even if you begged me to.
You do not have to worry at all.”
Caesar’s lips twitched.
He then looked at the other Progenitors and saw that they all were shaking their heads in disappointment as well.
“Petty Bastard.” Dagahra shook his head.
“Petty indeed.” Saphira nodded.
“Shoo Shoo~
Go away now, I need to sleep.”
Azriel waved his hand and sent them away.
The Progenitors came out of Azriel’s mansion with a disappointed look on their faces.
The Union Leaders, who were waiting for them to appear panicked when they looked at the Progenitors’ disappointed faces.
‘The Meeting went on for so long… They must have been discussing something very important…
But… why do they look so disappointed?
Did Lord Azriel reject their proposal?
That can’t be right?’
The Union leaders started thinking.
The Human Leaders couldn’t control themselves anymore and walked toward Caesar.
“Father, what did Lord Azriel say?
Is he not willing to stop?”
“He said that he won’t convert humans into vampires anymore…” Caesar muttered with a disappointed look on his face.
Hearing that, the Human leaders frowned,
Isn’t that a good thing?
Why is their father acting like this?
Is there a catch?
However, the more they talked, the more they realized that there was no catch at all.
The Union Leaders then looked at each other and smiled.
They have decided, they would celebrate.
As for why the Progenitors looked disappointed,
Well, they are strange from the beginning, that is no surprise.
Since the Union Leaders couldn’t understand their thoughts, they stopped thinking about it.
This was the best course of action after all.
Then, the Union Leaders started celebrating, and the progenitors returned to their mansions and slept.
As for Aeliana, she rushed towards Azriel’s Mansion and questioned,
“Why did you do it, father?”
“Do what?”
“Why would you stop turning humans into vampires? If you did that, we would have been able to take over the whole Yrniel in a few thousand years.”
“I wanted the Vampires to grow on their own, helping them is easy, however, if I do that, they would start relying on me.
That would make them weak.
Therefor-“
“You were bored, weren’t you?”
Aeliana questioned.
“My daughter knows me the best.”
Azriel looked at Aeliana and smiled.
And since he knew she would be pissed, he took a step forward, grabbed and placed her on his lap and continued to pat her head.
“My daughter is indeed the best daughter in this world.”
Aeliana calmed down.
Then, she placed her head on Azriel’s lap and lay down on the bed.
“You are very mean, father.”
She pouted.
Azriel continued to pat her hand and muttered,
“I apologize.”
“You don’t have to…” Aeliana muttered as she closed her eyes.
More and more peaceful years passed, the humans started regaining their strength and even the Vampires grew at a tremendous rate.
However, 500 years later, something shocking happened.
A Fifth Generation Human died.
No, he didn’t die in battle, he died of old age.
His body had turned weaker and organs stopped working and he wasn’t alone, the other Fifth Generation humans have turned weaker and weaker as well.
They all were about to die as well.
The Lifetime of the Fifth Generation Humans…
…had ended.
