The Accidental Vampire

Now was not a time for politics. Now wasn\'t a time for discussions or being nice. Each second he was delayed could potentially be life-threatening for Lilith, so right from the start, Castiel went all out.

If he was going to be Castiel, then he needed to feel like Castiel. He needed to feel the strength, and he needed the arrogance that came with the strength. Sometimes words were more important than actions.

As Atlas talked, his aura intensified, reaching far and wide. If his aura was like a small pond before, now it was like a massive tsunami.

He didn\'t know how the Werewolves were going to react, but that was the last thing he was going to worry about.

For a moment, there was complete silence as the Werewolves sensed the overwhelming aura. The aura didn\'t just fill the surroundings but also covered most of the city.

"This Aura?"

Razil was about to jump down the balcony for Lancaster when he sensed a strange aura rushing toward him from a distance.

"My lord, I brought news." At the same time, another Guard arrived, further distracting Razil.

"What?"

"It\'s about the Vampire. He doesn\'t have red eyes. He doesn\'t seem to be from the Blood Council."

"I know that much. This aura... It\'s not something that a Blood Council member can possess. This aura is too pure. It can only be..."

"What did you say his eye color was?"

"Green."

"So it is Castiel. The most troublesome out of the four. Even he has returned, it seems." Razil grimaced. "Go and inform Zhang. Tell him to join me in a battle. It seems we\'ll be hunting a Progenitor, just like our parents did."

"Yes, My Lord."

Razil jumped down the balcony. Even as he jumped, it was as if his body had turned extremely light for a moment. Without any trouble, he landed on the ground safely.

The other werewolves dashed inside to inform Zhang.

However, he didn\'t need to inform Zhang at all.

The aura was enough of a calling signature. Even Zhang sensed that aura.

"And here I thought I had more time." Zhang frowned, glancing at the window. "It seems Castiel is already here to save you. I would\'ve appreciated more time to interrogate you, but..."

A weakened Lilith lay on the bed in the distance. The entire blood was covered in the blood. There were multiple scars all over Lilith\'s body. There was even a hole in her right hand, as if someone had stabbed a stake in her hand.

"Just when it was getting fun." Zhang sighed. "It doesn\'t matter though. Now that he\'s here, I suppose I\'ll directly ask him why he\'s here. And you\'ll help me."

Zhang grabbed Lilith by her neck, raising her in the air. He dragged Lilith with him. "Let\'s see how much Castiel truly cares for you."

Knock! knock!

Just as Zhang was about to open the door, there was a knock.

"What?" Zhang opened a door.

"Lord Zhang, His Majesty sent a message. He wants you to join him in the battle."

"Huh, I know he would ask for help. Castiel is the most troublesome guy since he can also use spells. Razil would need me to keep Castiel at bay and to capture him. In any case, I was also going there."

Lilith felt so weak she couldn\'t even raise her hands to struggle to free herself. Her entire body was in immense pain. She was having a hard time even staying conscious. If she hadn\'t sensed the aura of Atlas, she would\'ve already lost her consciousness, yet she was resisting now. She couldn\'t go to sleep at this time.

\'That idiot! What is he doing?! Is he looking to be caught? He can\'t use spells. He also can\'t draw out the true strength of Castiel. He will get caught if he fights so openly. When did someone like him become so impulsive and stupid?\'

Lilith had already started scolding Atlas in her mind. Atlas was someone who wasn\'t impatient at all. In fact, he even bowed before some Vampires, all because he wanted to wait for the right time to strike back, which was safest for him. For someone like that to abandon all logic and attack openly? Just what was he doing?

\'He also doesn\'t know that Razil isn\'t his only enemy here. There\'s this guy too. He is making a mistake he shouldn\'t! Run idiot! It\'s not the time! Just give me some time to free myself!\'

Lilith doesn\'t know that Atlas was only sensible and patient when it came to him. When it was about those close to him, he never took such risks.

That was also why he jumped in harm\'s way for Lancaster in the past or faced the Blood Council member for a mere dog!

*****

Even Razil didn\'t go straight to the Battlefield. Instead, he landed before Lancaster, who was stunned to find a man appear before him.

"I would\'ve loved to have a chat with you, but I\'m busy for now. I\'ll have to ask you to go to sleep for now."

Before Lancaster could react, Razil grabbed the throat of Lancaster.

Razil\'s body moved like lightning as he appeared outside the castle, smacking Lancaster on a distant wall, but he still didn\'t free the young guy.

Lancaster coughed out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if some of his bones were broken. The impact behind this attack was simply too much.

Razil raised Lancaster again before smacking him on the ground, leaving a deep crater under them.

After significantly hurting Lancaster to make sure he couldn\'t do anything stupid, Razil tossed weak Lancaster to his Guards. "Arrest this guy, keep him secure. I\'ll talk to him when I return."

"Other than two here who will keep an eye on this young man, I want everyone else to follow me to the battlefield."

*****

"Did you just threaten the King? That aura... You are a Progenitor! You dare target our Kingdom? That arrogance!"

"Arrogance?" Atlas frowned. "The only ones here who have arrogance are you! Return what belongs to me!"

"And what is it that belongs to you?" The young General asked, grimacing. "I don\'t believe we hold anything of yours."

"Lilith! Tell your King to return Lilith to me! If that\'s even a scratch on her..."

"Lilith? You are Castiel? Are you talking about the Witch Queen Lilith? I don\'t recall capturing her ever. She isn\'t in the Kingdom."

"She is in this Kingdom. And she is inside your Castle! Call your King here and tell him to return Lilith to me!"

"No need to call anyone! I\'m already here!" A figure came, jumping over the army of other Wolves to land before Castiel.

If there was an aura that could counter the aura of Castiel, it was none other than the Werewolf King.
