The Accidental Vampire

Giving Yovana freedom and letting her use Atlan\'s body in exchange for the stone? Or stopping her and risking the lives of his friends? That was the question before him.

He knew what Lilith\'s answer was going to be. She was going to say no. As for Lancaster, he was going to support whatever he said since there were no stakes for him personally in this. It was for him to decide what to do.

"Okay. I\'ve decided." After taking a brief moment to think about it, Atlas declared.

He had arrived at a conclusion, and that conclusion was to stop Yovana. She wasn\'t something he could trust. If they let her leave, who knew how strong she could become? And surely was going to find it suspicious if they asked for the Key Fragment, which could make her realize that they had ulterior motives.

There were too many uncertain factors in letting her leave. Those factors made Atlas come to a decision.

Without consulting anyone, he flew ahead, straight attacking Atlan. He had arrived here with the expectations of having to fight Atlan since he had assumed that Atlan was siding with Yovana. Even though the case here was different, it was still Atlan he had to fight.

He had already considered the decay of the Mark of Protection from this battle.

Atlas grabbed Atlan\'s throat, dragging his body ahead. Atlan also reacted swiftly, even being slightly faster than Atlas. He grabbed Atlas\' throat in return, planting his feet firmly on the ground. He couldn\'t be pushed back any more.

"It seems you\'ve actually decided to oppose me. No matter how wrong this decision may be, I accept wholeheartedly."

Boom~

Yovana could use everything that Atlan could. However, there are more. She could also use her old abilities that she could become. Her soul was still the same.

The dead once again started rising. However, this time there weren\'t only a hundred dead. There were over a thousand. Yovana didn\'t need the nodes anymore. All the dead bodies weren\'t needed. She could use them as she pleased, even for battle.

Unfortunately, just as Yovana had planted her feet on the ground to show Atlas how strong she was, a wolf came out of nowhere, attacking her.

Yovana was forced to release Atlas as she tried to move back, but Atlas didn\'t free her. Instead, he used his strength to get Yovana off her feet before sending her flying straight toward Lancaster\'s jaws.

Just as Lancaster\'s teeth were about to munch on Yovana\'s neck, she disappeared. Lancaster could only bite thin air, landing on the ground beside Atlas.

"Teleportation... Atlan\'s Bloodline ability. It was being blocked because of the spells of the Witches. It seems Yovana has removed those spells!" Lilith exclaimed, noticing Yovana standing in the distance with her hand behind her back like a surreal expert.

"Chains of Restrictions!" Lilith cast her spell, stopping the dead.

Multiple invisible chains tied the legs of the dead, stopping them from moving further. Her spell covered a wide area, but even she couldn\'t stop the thousands of dead that were spread all around them. This spell didn\'t cover this big of an area.

However, it did give her some time.

After receiving some time, Lilith placed her hand on the ground. "Blood Domain!"

She cast another spell, this time specifically for Yovana. The spell she cast around the city was to stop any teleportation using spells, but the Domain she just cast effectively locked the space in the surrounding area here as well.

That made it impossible for the space to be used as a conduit for travel. Lilith blocked Yovana\'s Teleportation, even if it cost her a lot of energy.

To cast a blood domain, she needed to burn her own blood inside her body which weakened her somewhat. However, if that took away Yovana\'s biggest advantage of Teleportation, then it was worth it for Lilith.

"Chains of Decay!" Without caring about her weaknesses, Lilith cast another spell, this time targeting Yovana as well. She used even more of her blood.

A formation circle appeared around Yovana, which effectively trapped her inside. It was as if there was a wall around that formation circle that couldn\'t be seen.

"You\'ll never learn, will you?" Yovana exclaimed, realizing what Lilith was doing.

However, Yovana didn\'t hold back either. She brought a small piece of paper out of her pocket and tore it before tossing it on the ground.

The burning piece of paper landed on the ground and started releasing some smile, which floated only above the formation circle, covering the formation. The formation couldn\'t be seen at all. The smoke blocked the formation.

"You can\'t fight me, Lilith! You are fighting yourself! I know all your tricks! You can\'t defeat me!"

"What about me?" As Yovana was distracted by Lilith, Atlas exclaimed.

A mighty bolt of lightning fell from the sky, right where Yovana was standing. Atlas used the same spell that was used to destroy Zhang.

The roar of the clouds buried all the noise beneath it, and the flash of its lightning made it impossible for anything to be seen. The blinding lights stopped.

Everyone was finally able to see the spot where Yovana was standing. However, strangely enough, she was completely fine. There was not even a scratch on her body.

Even the ground around her was completely intact as if the lightning didn\'t even touch the ground. It was also evident why that was the case. It didn\'t take long for anyone to figure it out.

The Sword in Yovana\'s hands made everything crystal clear. She was holding only a sword that was similar to what Lucius and Atlas used. Just the color of the heavy sword was somewhat different.

Yovana had that sword above her head, making it seem as if she had used the sword as a shield. A black fire could be seen around the sharp blades of the Sword.

"Good toy, isn\'t it?" Yovana laughed heartily. "I saw Atlan use it when fighting the Mages and Werewolves. Ever since that moment, I had wanted it... Along with his body and all his strength! Now that I have everything, you think I\'ll let you take it all from me?"

"This body is mine now! This strength is mine! And soon, everything I ever wanted will be mine!" Yovana lowered the sword.

The dead also managed to break the shackles of Lilith by now. Things didn\'t look positive. The spells that he had learned couldn\'t destroy the Bloodline sword of Atlan. That was a huge problem. Especially since that sword was also supposed to absorb the strength of magical attacks to make it stronger.

The sword was the best protection against spells. And it was also stronger enough to slice whatever it touched.

"If you want to go that far, then I also promise you one thing! I\'ll take everything that you have now! I\'ll take that body! I\'ll take that sword! I\'ll take that strength! Since you\'ve made me go so far already, then so be a little more..."

Atlas also raised his hand. He had decided that he needed to stop Yovana and take that key Fragment. He wasn\'t going to step back after coming so far.

"Lancaster, help Lilith take care of the dead!" He commanded Lancaster. "I\'ll handle things here..."

Lancaster was slightly hesitant in leaving Atlas alone, but he listened to Atlas in the end, noticing Lilith being surrounded by the dead. She was fighting and destroying the dead that got closer to her, but there were just so many that it seemed impossible to take everyone out.

Lancaster left, jumping into the crowd of the dead, revealing her speed once again. One after another, Lilith and Lancaster kept taking out the undead so they couldn\'t create an obstruction in Atlas\' path. The faster they killed the undead, the faster they could join Atlas.

They hoped to help Atlas, but Atlas wasn\'t looking for hope. He had made up his mind that even if it was his first battle with a proper Progenitor, he was going to win it. Moreover, no matter how much Yovana knew about Atlan, there was no way she could bring out his full strength either. She could use his tricks, but not to the same level of efficiency as Atlan could.

Fighting Yovana in Atlan\'s body was much better than fighting Atlan himself.

Still, he was confused about one time. He knew that a Progenitor\'s soul was the strongest. Then why was Yovana able to control his soul without his wish? With him, if Castiel wanted, he could\'ve taken the body back.

Even if Yovana knew some Spells, it should\'ve been easy to take over Atlan\'s body. If that were possible, the Franc Clan would\'ve tried the same. They also had great knowledge, after all.

He knew that in that question was the answer to defeating Yovana, but until then, he had to face her.

He started his assault, attacking Yovana with his full strength behind it. At the same time, he also cast a shroud, making him invisible.
