Undying Warlord

Getting rid of the three Vampire Clans was quite easy. For most Vampire Clans it was already surprising if there were more than 100 Vampire subordinates for each noble Vampire.

In most Vampire Clans one could find roughly five noble Vampires on average. Sometimes there were many more, such as in the battle where 6000 Vampires had been present but this was basically an anomaly that was not supposed to happen.

After all, each Vampire subordinate would have to receive a fragment of a noble Vampire’s Blood Essence.

100 Blood Essences could be separated from a noble Vampire without influencing his powers negatively, but that was usually the limit.

In a large-scale battle against the Vampires, the noble Vampires had been unique. There had only been 10 noble Vampires of the same family, but they could regenerate their Blood Essence and thus create more Vampire subordinates.

That was also the reason why the fights against the first three Vampire Clans ended so quickly.

Dilan killed the strongest Vampires in each group, with ease, using both [Thunder Step] and [Second Acceleration] to make sure that he could defeat them quickly enough before the remaining Vampires were left to fend for themselves like lost puppies without any connection to their master.

After he had killed the vampire leaders, and the three Clans were exterminated, Dilan collected their Blood Essences. He didn’t absorb them because their use was non-existent with his maxed-out stats but he stored them away to use after he advanced to Tier-2.

When the battles were over, Dilan met his people to ensure that his group had suffered no casualties and that nobody was gravely injured.

With Dilan’s support, it had been no problem to kill the Vampires, and even the Werewolves, who liked him the least, couldn’t help but acknowledge his strength.

It didn’t matter whether they liked him or not because the results of the battles were the most important.

After the first three Vampire Clans had been exterminated, it was necessary for them to quickly advance ahead.

The remaining Vampire Clans would quickly smell the blood of their brethren because it would spread through the entire valley.

Dilan and the others had already accepted this and they traveled toward the western side of the Sanctum. The Vampire Clans were the furthest spread out there, which would make it difficult for them to enter a tacit agreement.

Vampires were prideful and they would only swallow their pride in the face of imminent death. Thus, Dilan and the 2000+ combatants would have to work hard and overwhelm their opponents as quickly as possible.

With a numerical advantage of five to one, while fighting a single Vampire Clan, it was a matter of minutes before the Vampires would die.

Adding Dilan’s subtle support to kill the noble Vampires, and the Tier-2 Vampires with special traits that were a menace, the Vampire Clans were falling one after another.

Only when a total of eight Vampires clans were left behind did everyone in the valley realize that the Undying group and the Werewolf packs were here to eradicate everyone.

They were noticed and the five solo Vampire Clans threw aside their pride to join forces and tackle their mighty opponents.

The three Vampire Clans, who had already been together beforehand, seemed to want to team up with the five Vampire Clans as well.

With a total strength of members of eight Clans, they would have more than enough powerful forces to inflict tremendous damage to the Undying group.

Dilan wouldn’t allow that, which was something everyone in his group knew. They were fully aware of Dilan’s strength and that he would kill all the powerful noble Vampires before something catastrophic would happen.

That was the trust and belief they had in their leader.

“Isn’t it weird that we have yet to fight the Clan of the new Vampire Lord? There hasn’t been any powerful noble Vampire in the Clans I killed…” Dilan mumbled when he ended up next to the three Alphas.

They looked at him with stiffened tails as they stared at him in doubt and a trace of fear.

‘What the hell is he talking about? The noble Vampires of the Clans he killed terrorized the Werewolves all over the Shikan plains for over a thousand years, and he calls them weak…’

‘Shouldn’t we be happy that the Vampire Lord isn’t here?! Even True Alphas have issues fighting such a powerhouse, let alone us…’

‘This human is really insane…Will we really be able to get the Sanctum Keys from him…maybe we should just let him be and enter the Blood Monarch’s Sanctum first. I really don’t want to sacrifice my pack to defeat him, if that is even possible, to begin with…’

Those were the thoughts of the three Alphas. Each of them could clearly gauge the enormous strength Dilan held and none of them wanted to fight against him anymore.

Their initial plan to backstab him had already been discarded because it was suicidal.

How were they supposed to kill him if it was not even possible to cut through his skin, to begin with!?!

While the three Alphas were deep in thought, their subordinates began to growl while looking at the north. Someone came running in their direction, straight from the group of the three Vampire Clans, who showed signs of wanting to team up with the other five Vampire Clans.

They had yet to move but it was only a matter of time until that would happen.

Dilan smiled when he saw the familiar flash that halted right in front of him.

The Alphas began to growl as well. They activated their Bestial transformation instinctively and were ready to pounce at the female Vampire, who had appeared out of nowhere.

However, they could only freeze in their tracks when they saw Dilan’s ice-cold expression. His killing intent erupted like a volcano from his body, causing shudders to run down the spines of all the Werewolves around him.

“Whoever dares to touch a single strand of her hair will have to learn how to walk without legs and eat without arms,” Dilan said quietly as he squeezed the right cheek of the noble Vampire in front of him.

Victoria wanted to complain about him squeezing her cheek but she could only smile foolishly. She liked the way Dilan protected her, whether it was necessary or not.

“Tch!” The sound of someone clicking her tongue could be heard from behind and when Dilan turned around, he saw Kathrine, Yvonne, Sven, and a few others walking up to him.

It looked like they had something to say but Kathrine glared daggers at Dilan.

“You really are a womanizer!” She grumbled quietly, turning her head with a “Hmpf!”

Dilan lifted his right eyebrow in response before he smiled lightly.

Kathrine was a pretty good target to tease.

However, Dilan knew that now was not the time to think about teasing someone. He turned in Victoria’s direction before he asked the most important question.

“It looks like you weren’t able to make them leave, right?” Dilan asked, feeling a tiny bit apologetic.

“…No…I wasn’t…” Victoria’s expression quickly turned gloomy and she let out a defeated sigh.

He didn’t want to kill anyone, who was important to Victoria, but it would be near impossible to take note of this if the three Vampire Clans were to merge with the five hostile Vampire clans.

“In that case, I might have to resort to violence!”
