The Accidental Vampire

The Kingdom of Wolves, one of the most prosperous Kingdoms, had many great doctors, especially the ones who worked for the Royals.

The Royal Family’s doctor lived right in the Palace itself, but Razil decided against taking Atlas to him. He wanted to keep Atlas as far away from the Royal Palace during his short stay as he could since Atlan was there.

Instead of taking Atlas to the palace, he took Atlas to another physician who lived farthest from the Royal Palace.

Moreover, his house was also much closer to their current location than the Royal Palace itself, which was another advantage.

“This is the house.” The Middle Aged General stopped before a house and knocked on it.

Atlas observed all the Wolves in his surroundings as everyone waited for the doors to open. The security was just too much. This place was crowded, and everyone was keeping an eye on them. There didn’t appear to be any possibility of being able to get out of this place without being seen, which made him wonder if he had wasted his time by accepting this invitation.

If they were so far from the Royal Palace, could they really even get close to Atlan? It wasn’t just Razil who was keeping an eye on them after all.

The door was opened by a middle-aged woman who grew stunned to see so many people before her house. It was as if every Royal was there. She couldn’t understand why. The Royals were never treated here since they had a physician of their own.

“Is your husband inside?” The General inquired.

Razil stood in the distance with his hands behind his back, shifting his gaze between Zhang and Castiel. He kept trying to think of ways to make sure Atlan wasn’t taken from the Kingdom by Zhang.

Zhang slid closer to Razil, bringing his lips closer to the man’s ears. “I’m not going to leave Atlan behind, no matter what you do. You must keep your father’s words. I want Atlan tomorrow.”

Razil glared in response but couldn’t counter.

“He is inside,” the Woman answered regarding the availability of her husband.

“Good. We have someone who needs treatment. She has bled a bit and needs some treatment.” The General pointed at Lilith in the distance, who was still in Atlas’ arms, seemingly distracted by something.

Back at the Palace, the real Lilith had failed in opening the second door, no matter what she tried.

Despite the failure, she didn’t return the body to the man right away. Now that she had an opportunity, she decided to take some precautions for the future. She used the opportunity to destroy all the Spells that were carved on the wall, using the sharp claws of the man, creating flaws in the spell to make them ineffective in the future.

Even if she couldn’t get in this time, she didn’t want to have the same trouble again when she was back in her body.

The biggest problem was still the roof though as there were also formations there. Fortunately, that’s where the flight spell of Lilith came into effect, helping the man destroy the spells on the roof as well.

Only after she destroyed all the spells did Lilith make the man return. She made the man sit back in the middle of his formation before returning to her body while giving the man his own.

The vines once again trapped the man, who was even weaker now. Since his consciousness was taken over by Lilith before being returned, his consciousness was already very fragmented, which affected him really badly, almost bringing him to a black state as if he was heavily intoxicated.

Fortunately, that also gave Lilith an opportunity. In this state, she was sure that the man had no idea where he was or what was happening. He wasn’t going to lie or hide anything if she asked.

“Tell me how the second door can be opened? Where is the key that opens that door?”

The blank man answered without realizing it.”The key is with Lord Razil. Only that key can open the door.”

“Razil… when I couldn’t find the key here, I had a feeling this was going to be the case. This certainly makes things more complicated.” Lilith rested her chin on her fingers as she lowered her head, losing herself in thoughts. “This means I’ll need to steal the key first if I want to get to Atlan.”

“Where does he keep the key to the second door?” she asked. If the key was kept in the castle, it was possible for her to find it.

“He wears the key around his neck.” The man blankly stated, giving Lilith another bad news that she didn’t want to hear.

If Razil had had the ring around his neck, that meant getting the ring back was near impossible. It was like inserting the hand in a wild tiger’s mouth and expecting to come out without even a scratch.

*****

Lilith’s clone gazed at the chest of Razil, getting the information about the key. She couldn’t see the key, but she also understood that it was probably because the ring was hidden inside the clothes.

The question still remained. How could she get the ring back without creating too much conflict? If it was just Razil here, then her real self could’ve worked together with Atlas to restrict him momentarily to get the ring back, but he wasn’t alone. Zhang was here as well and was no less than them.

If her side had two people while the other had one, it was possible, but when both sides had two, it was much harder, especially since Atlas wasn’t as strong as Castiel. In essence, he was also weaker than Razil, so it created even more problems.

She wondered how she could get the ring from the man without being found out as she was taken inside the house by Atlas. Every wolf stayed outside, surrounding the house and securing the perimeter. For as long as Atlas was here, it was their responsibility to make sure that nothing happened here or that Atlas didn’t leave without their knowledge.

Lancaster and Yovana entered with Lilith and Atlas, followed by Razil, his trusted general, and Zhang. They were like the three Guardians that didn’t leave them alone at all, even inside the house.

The doctor greeted them with great respect. It was the first time Razil had come to him for someone’s treatment. He knew he couldn’t make a mistake since this was an opportunity for him to make an impression. If he played his cards right, he could become a Royal Physician.

He didn’t realize that he was in the middle of a really intense game where Atlan was the prize.
