364 Threat
Dilan didn’t hesitate to separate from his group.
He told Kathrine and Yvonne to pay attention to the five Vampire Clans that had merged into one group, while he would leave to finish off the group of three Vampire Clans.
Dilan’s intention was to give the three Vampire Clans a last chance at survival. They could either make use of this chance and flee for their lives or die at his hands right here and right now.
“I hope you understand what will happen if they don’t obey,” Dilan said monotonously as he ran through the valley. Victoria was by his side, biting on the inside of her cheek as she nodded her head in silence.
The sabertooth tiger was left behind with Yvonne, who could control the monster to a certain extent. Yvonne was amongst the strongest members of the Undying Group.
She was still at Tier-1 but her stats were high enough to rival most Tier-2 Ascenders, and her abilities were extremely powerful as well.
Thus, Dilan was not worried about her.
He didn’t even worry about the three Vampire Clans, who he would finish off real quick, because they were bound to submit to his threat.
He activated [Switch] the moment all the Vampires of the three Clans looked over at him and Victoria.
He reallocated 60 Health Units, 30 Stamina Units, and 10 Strength units to his Agility, to increase it to 210 Units, adding the [Beyond the Stars] title that amplified his stats by 10%, making his normal Agility reach 231 Units.
However, that was not enough for Dilan and he activated both [Thunder Step] and [Second Acceleration] to increase his stats to 390 Units.
The boots he was wearing added 20 Units to his Agility, which was how Dilan ended up with stats that exceeded the realm any Tier-1 existence ought to be able to reach.
Even Tier-2 existence shouldn’t be able to enhance their stats to such an extent because their body would tear apart.
However, Dilan was currently still somewhat fine. His skin would burst open the moment he unleashed all his might but with a Health stat of 235 Units, he was still somewhat fine!
He used [Burst Regeneration] to make sure that he wouldn’t suffer a lot of damage before he leaned forward and shot ahead.
A sonic boom reverberated through the entire valley as Dilan perked forward. An excited smile formed on his face and he felt like retrieving Balzaki and starting a massacre.
Fortunately, it was possible for Nial to control his urges, maintain his calm and shoot straight into the rows of Vampires, who only realized what was going on when it was already too late.
When Dilan passed through their rows, all the Vampires were pushed backward. Dilan didn’t even try to avoid anyone. He simply seemed to move around with the grace of a dancer, grasped a few collars, and dragged certain Vampires behind himself. He put them down more than two kilometers away from their group and returned to pick up more.
In less than half a minute all powerful noble Vampires of the three Vampire Clans had been picked up and thrown in the same area, dumping them above each other likes heaps of trash.
Dilan halted in his tracks to look at the noble Vampires with ice-cold eyes before he pointed out their situation.
“I could have killed all of you by now. You guys weren’t even able to escape being dragged out here, so I doubt anyone will try to deny reality,” Dilan started before he gave the dozen or so noble Vampires a scrutinizing look.
They looked at him in fear, just like he had intended, and only continued to speak when he was satisfied.
“For Victoria’s sake, I spared you once. I suggest that you leave the valley of the Old Vampire Lord’s Sanctum, for the time being, otherwise, the Werewolves will tear you apart. I won’t show any mercy to my opponents either!” Dilan’s thirst for blood was evident as warned them.
His bloodlust shrouded his body before it expanded through his surroundings, impacting the Vampires around him.
Victoria had reached his side, and she looked at the situation in anxiety but also hope. Dilan’s threat and the way he picked out all powerful noble Vampires from the place they were supposed to be the safest should have influenced the opinion of the noble Vampires.
If that was not enough, even Victoria couldn’t help them anymore, which was something she was fully aware of.
“Are you one of the Werewolves’ allies?” One of the noble Vampires asked carefully and quietly but did not avoid Dilan’s gaze.
His crimson glowing eyes stared deeply into Dilan’s ice-cold sky-blue eyes as if the Vampire was searching for something.
“Allies? Not really. They just wanted to kill all Vampires of the Shikan plains and I wanted to make use of them to enter the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord without further issues. You know, I had to face quite some issues because of a bunch of Vampire Clans. I just want the Instance Dungeon and to take a look at the Sanctum, nothing more,” Dilan spoke honestly while shrugging his shoulders.
There was no need to hide the truth, and the only thing Dilan had left out was the fact that he made sure that his Undying group’s Ascenders would gain more experience with killing and surviving on the battlefield, without facing too many dangerous situations.
The Werewolves were basically Dilan’s meatshields whether they wanted or not.
It looked like the noble Vampire was relieved when he heard that Dilan was not an ally of the Werewolves, but Dilan didn’t really notice it.
“We will take your leave then. Are we allowed to enter the Sanctum when you leave?” The same noble Vampire asked and Dilan nodded his head.
It didn’t really matter much but Dilan hadn’t expected the Vampire nobles to be able to talk calmly.
And a single glance in Victoria’s direction told Dilan that she seemed to be just as astounded, not expecting the reaction of the strongest present noble Vampire.
Victoria knew the noble Vampire, and she was certain that he wouldn’t simply accept Dilan’s threat. However, that was a big miscalculation from her side.
When the strongest of the present noble Vampires spoke his mind, the others agreed grudgingly as well. They didn’t feel like putting aside their pride but they were forced to do so in order to survive.
None of them had witnessed Dilan’s combat strength but the fact that he was able to run fast enough to bring them here without giving them an opportunity to react in time was a telltale sign of what a monstrous existence he was.
It didn’t need much strength for Dilan to pierce a dagger through their eyes to destroy their brains. As for the rest, Dilan shouldn’t have much issues taking care of that himself as well.
After everyone agreed to leave, Victoria sighed in relief. She looked at Dilan gratefully and with something else glimmering in her eyes.
Her eyes burned fiercely but Dilan ignored that for the time being.
He just looked at the noble Vampires, who rushed back to their people, who had been anxiously waiting for their masters.
They left the valley without saying anything which was enough for Dilan to avert his attention to the remaining five Vampire Clans.
“Victoria, how about you fight a little bit as well? Go and kill some of the noble Vampires you hate so much!” Dilan laughed lightly before he slapped Victoria’s butt.
Victoria squealed out in surprise and she looked at him in shock, before a bright smile emerged on her face. The glint in her eyes deepened and she instinctively blurted out,
“As you wish, Master~!”
