The Accidental Vampire

Chapter 222 222: Return Of The Prince



Atlas went down the stairs, along the way tossing the bodies back to the cell above so they didn't block the stairs.

****

While Atlas was going down the castle, Vor was taking a walk outside the carriage, waiting for Atlas to return. He didn't seem to be alone in this as Lancaster was also outside now. Only Misella and Luna were still inside the carriage now.

Vor occasionally looked at the top of the mountain wondering how long they were going to take.

"While we're waiting, let me teach you something," he told Lancaster. He needed time outside to train Lancaster and what better time than this? They were already free. Moreover according to Atlas, they had close to half an hour here. That much time was enough to teach his descendant a few things.

"I will move back. When I signal you, I want you to attack me. Use all the strength you can and you must hit me. Show me your top speed and then I'll show you something."

Vor moved back around ten metres before signalling Lancaster to attack.

Lancaster called out his sharp claws as he prepared to attack. He wanted to show his peak strength in this attack and nothing less than that. He clenched his fist, taking a deep breath.

However, just as he was about to attack, he saw his surroundings becoming brighter. It was as if it was suddenly day.

He looked up, facing the bright sky which used to be dark until recently. Moreover, it wasn't as if the sun was out. Instead, there seemed to be hundreds of sources of light in the sky that were shining brightly.

"They..." Vor grimaced at the scene. He recognized these flashes of light as he saw them even before.

Luna also sensed something. She saw it becoming bright outside. She stepped out of the carriage and looked up

As soon as she looked up, she felt as if her heart skipped a beat. "How can they be here so soon?"

"Shouldn't that be a question that I should be around?" Vor walked closer to Luna. "You said they will take a long time to prepare if they wanted to come with an army. If that's not an army then I don't know what is."

"Even I'm not sure how he prepared an army this fast. It must be my brother being hasty. But this isn't good..." Luna answered.

A powerful voice could be heard in every corner of the world, coming from one of the ships.

"Castiel! We know you are awake! You broke the conditions of our deal and as a result, we are forced to be here. I'm sure my dear sister is with you again? This time, even her begging won't make me let you live! I won't make the same mistake again!"

"It's time your world pays for your sins against our Empire! It's time we bring this world to ruins! I won't ask you to show yourself, since I know you're a coward. I'll allow you to hide! Hide as much as you can! Hide where you want! Make this fun for me! Make me create rivers of Blood in search of you! I will see how long you can hide from us!"

"It's the voice of my brother. I was right. My brother is leading this assault. I was also right. They can't sense Castiel until his memories return and he regains his old aura!" Luna exclaimed.

"So they can't find us," Lancaster summerized. "But I don't think that's good news either. They are talking about destroying everyone in this world. That's only so long we can avoid them. The longer we hide, the weaker it will be for us since the forces against the enemies will keep getting weaker with time."

"I know. We need to do something about this and we need to do it fast. Let's wait for Castiel and Lilith's return first. We will discuss this with him. We all need to be on the same page after all."

Lancaster saw all the lights in the sky turning off as all the ships flew to land in different parts of the world. Even though the enemies had hundreds of ships, the earth was also huge. To cover as much land as they needed, they had to spread out.

"They are spreading out. That means they should be slightly weaker. If we can take out the men who are assigned to this part of the world, we should be able to get more time."

"We won't," Luna answered. "If we kill them, that will only alert the others about us. All the ships are connected. If one finds out about us they all find out about us. If we even manage to take out one team, all the others will be here since they will know we are in this general area."

Vor agreed. " Instead of having one team searching a large area, we would have all the teams surrounding one small area. That's why we need to make sure that we have a plan before attacking. We don't want things to be like they were in the past.'

"Moreover, since Castiel doesn't have his memories, his fighting skills are also slightly weaker, which is quite troublesome. Either we take his weakness into consideration, or we wait for his memories to return before mounting our assault. In any case, it can only be decided by him," he further clarified. "That's why, we need to wait for him first."

The voice that came from the ships was heard by the entire world, including the people who knew Atlas.

In one such place, Lucius was also looking at the sky, gazing at all the ships. "So they really are here. What timing..."

Atlan also looked up in another part of the world. "They are here. It is finally the time? The time for our last stand?"

Yovana also gazed at the sky. She hated Castiel... Or rather the person who was controlling the body of Castiel. If there were enemies that wanted to kill Castiel, she was quite happy.
