The vampire tore apart the mouth of his prey, causing blood to gush out, bathing him in red. The remaining gangsters look at them in horror, frozen in fear.

Violet was too. However, Scarlett was not. She took one look at the current situation and grabs Violet to get out of there. They retreat through the backdoor of the shop.

I didn't expect that. I totally didn't expect that at all. I really should have upped the difficulty a little more if the beauty of the day can just escape like that.

However, the situation currently unfolding in the shop is rapidly escalating into a disaster.

The new born vampire was fast and strong and is getting faster and stronger as he acclimates to his newfound power. The diluted blood didn't have that great of an effect at all.

By my reckoning, he is almost at the level of a third generation vampire, however, he is uncontrollable and is easier to put down.

I try to manipulate him a little, testing the effect of vampirism.

Within the vampire hierarchy, the one who originally "turn" a vampire usually has power over their spawn. However, in my case, it is different considering I'm not a vampire at all.

I don't have any psychic power. However, I replaced it with the helping of the Idol of Solarii.

I have always kept the Idol of Solarii with me to acclimate its power to me. Solarii is pleased, I hope.

I tried to divert the new born vampire attention away from the group of gangsters that was his former allies. Instead I directed it toward Scarlett and Violet who was running through the street of the capital of Lumaria.

The vampire howls in annoyance, however, it obeys my order and give chase.

Part 2 of the experiment was done.

I have confirmed that vampirism is in deed an achievable goal. I have also tested that it was possible to control a vampire by borrowing the power of the Idol of Solarii.

I don't know why but the Idol works with all Elves. In the hand of the Queen of the Dark Elf, whose power leans toward manipulation and corruption, it allows her to mind control her entire army and twisted them toward abominable form suited for war. In the hand of the ancient Ice Elf queen of the north, it causes her power to grow out of control and causes the eternal ice storm that cover the northern portion of the world. In the hand of the ancient shapeshifting elf who is now revered as the dragon god, it causes her transformation to be permanent and turn her into an actual dragon, and then elevate her to the realm of God.

And in my hand, it helps me with everything.

Only now that I have my hands on it can I understand the addictive nature of the Idol of Solarii.

"Chop chop. Chase after the girls, you hear me?"

The feral vampire jumps toward the two escaping women. It landed on the roof of a house leering down at them, its ugly visage more distressing than the current life or death situation they are in.

Frightened, Scarlett, the only fighter of the two froze on the spot, causing the vampire to jump on her.

They can smell fear I swear.

Seeing the vampire so near to her, Scarlett takes out her pocket knife again.

How cute.

The knife does hit the vampire, drawing blood, however, it failed to do anything to the raging beast.

The jaw of the beast tries to bite down on her neck, ignoring the pitiful knife in her hand sticking in its ribs. From behind, Violet, who has gathered enough of her wit, take a stick lying on the side of the road and hit the feral vampire in the back to save Scarlett.

How cute. Again.

Surprisingly, the stick shattered with the force of her strike, causing the vampire to grunt in annoyance, not being able to finish Scarlett off.

With the force of a backhand, it clobbers Violet, sending her flying, colliding with a wall.

It was at this point that Scarlett manages to get away from the meelee.

At the same time, waiting for the force of Te Celsa to have retreated safely, I took out my flare signal provided to all ranger and send up a red signal for all the city to see.

It was the same one that was used when the Archmages destroyed the city. An extremely dangerous threat.

In the city, there are three archmage apprentice with one mastering spatial transportation magic, one actual archmage who is the mother of the main character, and the main character, the hero of the elves Aradon. There is the ranger order with the best of the best elven archer stationed. There is the griffin order who mastered extreme speed, and there are the secret force of the royal family.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

In this situation, sending a vampire with that kind of blood potency is like kicking a hornet nest right now.

----------------------------------------

While I was playing a game of chess only I see, I flipped the table and restarted an entirely new game state.

Passing it onto everyone else to deal with the aftermath, I wonder what is on everyone's mind right now? Are they thinking what I'm thinking? Can they guess what I'm thinking? Can they actually connect the dot to what is happening? Or will they go down the same well-treaded path that their mind are so used to and maneuvers right where I wanted them to.

----------------------------------------

Master Te Celsa is in state of complete confusion.

Vampire? Vampire?

Why here? Why now? Why the fuck is there a vampire in elf land, and how could he not know about it?

It was something completely out of the blue, frightening the old master diplomat. His mind completely went blank momentarily.

Vampire are enemies of humanity, elves, dwarves and everything that are alive.

They ally themselves to no one and are beholden to no one. Vampires are also known to be extremely cunning as they age, blending themselves into an existing society and then corrupting it from with in. The casualty of a vampire outbreak is astronomical if an old vampire has his way with planning.

How did this happen?

Is there another force involved that he was not aware of? Was their activities notice by the vampire court? Did a vampire lord infiltrate their organization? Was it a fluke, a random event? Was the vampire just targeting Lumaria and they got caught in the crossfire?

As more questions are created rather than answer, the master diplomat feels like he is sinking. It was as if he was pulled down into a deep, unknowable abyss where nothing is certain.

Strangely, one question surfaces amongst the other.

"Was a vampire involved in Shio's coma?"

Te Celsa was jumping at shadow as something crept up on him. A feeling of uncertainty. Was there something that he missed? Was there anything that he could have known?

----------------------------------------

Aradon arrives fast. However, his mother arrived faster.

The vampire was subdued by countless city guard and ranger. However, it was not put down. It was only until the Archmage herself, Elanna Caemfaere arrives that the matter was solved one and for all. The regeneration of the vampire was fitting of a powerful third generation vampire even though his mind and deformities are not, however, the archmage puts an end to it permanently by vaporizing him down to the molecule. She takes the matter of vampirism inside the capital city very seriously, along with everyone else.

Which leads to the question of where the vampire came from.

In the future, I hope there will be an uncomfortable discovery about link between the feral vampire and a certain shady criminal organization which has very uncomfortable connection with a certain legendary diplomat.

As Chaos descends over the entire city, shaking the political foundation of everything, I have other things to do.

Namely, two bouquets of long stem blue morning lilies. It is a bit worst for wear, but it will do.

I comes late at night when the girls are supposed to be asleep.

However, the light are still up because of a certain reason surely.

As the event of the day unfold and the girls get away from certain death, their relationship got closer and closer.

Scarlett could not leave Violet being frightened surely and graciously offer to keep her company for the rest of the day.

As fear grips them, the women huddles with eachother for comfort, considering they already survives a near death experience, how could they be any closer.

Violet might get scared at night, and then, ah, Scarlett being gracious, offered the girl her own bed to keep her company to get over a very, very long day I assume. When they are cold, human gather together for warmth.

And then I chose to arrive at this moment, not because I am actually here to apologize, but because it is the most convenient moment for me.

I knock on the door of the wooden mansion that is Scarlett's home while announcing that it is me and saw a blushing disheveled girl open the door. With two bouquets of flower, bright eyes, and a concerned voice, I open the door and start the conversation

"I'm here to apologize. You all must have been frightened by today, however, the duty of my nation calls."

Suddenly I heard the voice of Violet from the back

"Oh, Andarel, thank god you are fine."

Well, everything is just where it is supposed to be isn't it?
