The Accidental Vampire

Lilith led the two young men straight ahead, only stopping before massive golden doors.

“Yeah, I checked this place before as well. This should be the Royal Court where Carlisle’s throne is. Misella wasn’t here.” Lancaster recognized the place since he had been here for quite some time. “I’m not sure why that girl would come here. Other than a few seats, there is nothing here.”

“Well, why don’t you all ask her instead?” Lilith pushed the door open and took her first step inside.

It was just as Lancaster had stated. There were seats on both sides of the room, with a throne being placed in the center of the room at the end.

All the seats were empty except the main throne. A young lady was sitting on the throne as she went through a book.

“That book…” Lilith recognized the book in the hands of Yovana. She had spent many years with that book itself since it was none other than her own diary.

A beautiful white rabbit rested on the lap of the young lady.

The book she held was the book in which Lilith recorded the spells she came up with, most of which even she didn’t remember at the moment.

“Lady Yovana, I suppose.” Atlas stepped closer to her.

“Urgh.”

Before Atlas could even step within ten meters range of Lilith, he was pushed back by an invisible force.

“A Vampire Warding Formation,” Lilith reminded Atlas. “You can’t get close to her without her permission without seriously harming yourself.”

“As expected, you seem to know a lot about this formation.” Yovana closed the book and kept it aside.

She glanced at Lancaster, who stood on the left side of Lilith. “Since all three of you are here, I suppose you failed to stop him from killing Severis? I suppose that was to be expected.”

“Good thing I didn’t leave, right?” she asked, letting out a calm smile. “If I had, you would’ve had to look for me.”

“Why are you so calm even in this situation?” Atlas inquired. Something didn’t seem right here. He had just killed two Vampire Lords she was apparently close to. Not only that, he had killed the other Vampires as well. So why was she so calm? There wasn’t even a shred of fear in her eyes.

“What’s the benefit of worrying? Did worrying protect Carlisle?” Yovana asked in return.

“It doesn’t matter. I don’t care who you are or why you aren’t worried. I don’t have anything to do with you. I just want one answer. Where is Misella?”

Atlas described the characteristics of his sister to give the young lady an idea of who she might be.

“She was brought here a few weeks back. So, tell me? Where is she?”

“You don’t have to describe her in such great detail. I already know who you’re talking about.”

“So you also know where she is?” From the way Yovana talked, it was as if she really knew his sister, which made him feel that his sister was indeed brought here. There was no way Yovana could know who he was talking about.

And if Misella’s body was brought here, that meant this girl was going to know where she was?

“Tell me, where is Misella?” he asked straight.

Yovana simply smiled in response. “What will I get in return if I help you?”

“Your life,” Atlas declared. “Because if you don’t tell me where she is, your life wouldn’t exist for long.”

“My life? I don’t think you can kill me. You can’t even get close to me, can you?” Yovana asked in an amused tone.

Even though she talked as such, it didn’t seem as if she was mocking Atlas.

“He can’t come to you, but I can,” Lilith chimed in. “And believe me, he’s much nicer than me. If I have to come to you, you might not like it.”

“Please, lady. Just tell us where his sister is? He is only asking for his sister. Be a nice person and help him?” Lancaster also suggested.

Yovana closed her eyes. “I know, as a nice person, I should help you right now, but an opportunity like this doesn’t come every day when a Progenitor and the Strongest Witch ever to walk this earth need something from you. If they were ordinary people, I might’ve helped while asking for nothing, but they’re too special to let go this easily.”

“Moreover, it’s not like you aren’t special yourself. I saw the mark on your back. A young wolf who possesses the Royal Werewolf Bloodline. It’s so funny how you three managed to find yourself. Lady Lilith, a Royal Werewolf and a Progenitor.”

Following her words, for a moment, there was complete silence in the entire hall. Both Atlas and Lilith were stunned as to how she knew who they were. At the same time, Lancaster was surprised to hear about Atlas being a Progenitor.

He had heard the stories about there being Progenitors. They were the oldest and the strongest Vampires, also known as the original gods of this world. A single Progenitor was comparable to the King of the Royal Werewolves, if not stronger.

“This can’t be. You’re mistaken about them.” Lancaster didn’t believe a single word she said since it sounded impossible.

“Progenitors are the oldest Vampires who are true immortals, unlike the current Vampires. How can a Progenitor have a sister who was a human? Unlike Vampires, Progenitors weren’t born a human. Even if they were, it was millions of years ago. So there’s no chance of a human existing at this time who could be their sister.”

“Are you sure Misella is her real sister?” Yovana asked. “Two people don’t have to be related by blood to be brothers and sisters, can they? They can form such bonds without a bond of blood. If I’m not wrong, that girl isn’t his real sister but someone he considers like a sister.”

“At first, even I wouldn’t have believed my own assumption, but too many things happened that made me realize that it’s the truth.”

“Lady Lilith addressed the young man as Master before Severis when she arrived. And he addressed her as Lilith. A witch who could use spells the lost spells that haven’t been seen in centuries? Who else can be but lady Lilith from the legends herself.”

“Just to be sure, I came here and checked the Grimoire of Lilith. The spells she used… They are all here. A woman who can use these spells… Someone who doesn’t look even the slightest bit of Greed for this book which is like the holy grail for Witches… Who else can she be but Lilith?” The young lady explained.

“And the person Lady Lilith addressed as Master… There was only one person like that according to the stories… Progenitor Castiel. Am I right?”
