Chapter 303 - Domineering
Immense pressure was unbound in the Vampyre Council Hall as from the right and left of the hall where many Vampyre Counts and powerful figures were situated, many of them had blood red eyes and dangerous batwings erupting from their backs as they were frozen in place. Their hands were outstretched in form of sharp claws as their wide jaws showed long canines ruptured and ready to bite off the being they were all jumping towards, the single human present in the Council Hall!
RUMBLE!
The bodies of all of these powerful Vampyres that were already in motion to descend towards Noah and rip him apart the moment he finished saying the single last explosive sentence were all frozen in place from the domineering aura of none other than the Vampyre King himself that had lost his playful smile and stood up grimly from his throne.
The eruption of his power was not to attack or pressure Noah, but to hold back these voracious Vampyres that had acted the instant his words finished to jump for this human’s life. The body of the Vampyre King pulsed with a red light as a regal aura of the densest Pureblood Bloodline brought tremendous pressure to all surrounding Vampyres and stopped them on their tracks no matter if they were at the Void or Soul Rank.
This was the power that the being holding the purest bloodline of the Vampyres, this was the man known as the Vampyre King!
Prince Cassius was looking at Noah with a shocked expression as even he had not found out this information that he released just now, watching as Noah’s expression remained calm while monstrous auras that were ready to pounce towards him surrounded him from all directions.
The grim expression on the Vampyre King’s face was soon wiped away as numerous thoughts seemed to pass through his experienced eyes. He knew exactly how his forces would react the moment this human let loose the shocking words, and acted instantly to prevent any unfortunate events from occurring. His gaze now remained on Noah as silence reigned in the Council Hall.
The Vampyre King waved his fingers swiftly as the monstrous powerhouse that were already pouncing towards Noah found their bodies unwillingly return to the seats they were in, their fangs and wings retracted as they were given a reminder of the fearsome power of the being that stood on the throne of the Pureblood Vampyres.
"You all seem to have forgotten, but it is I that makes the rules and is in command of every single creature in these lands. This applies to the rats, the elite vampyres, and even the little pureblood vampyres in this room."
Domineering words resounded across the wide Council Hall as powerful Vampyres of the Void and Soul Rank found themselves situated back into their seats like obedient children. They held no control of their bodies as the one holding the purest bloodline activated his authority and turned them as weak as normal unawakened beings!
"If something like this ever happens again, you all will be the first to lose your heads."

Powerful!
Domineering!
Resplendent!
The words of the Vampyre King reverberated as he turned his focus towards Noah and Prince Cassius.
"You two, let’s talk."
He waved his fingers again as Prince Cassius’s body floated towards him, another power wrapping around Noah and bringing him further into the Council Hall where the throne of the Vampyre King stood.
Their bodies arrived right beside the stone steps leading to the throne as another smaller world of blood began to convalesce around them, the voice of the Vampyre King ringing out towards the still trembling Vampyres on both sides of the hall.
"The rest of you, reflect on your actions for now."
OOOM!
The smaller blood world completely covered their three figures as only silence remained in the wide hall. Every single Vampyre in the room continued to be situated with not a single movement, only their eyes being able to show the fear they had forgotten deep in their hearts.
When looking at the Royal Castle where the ruling force of the Pureblood Vampyres resided, many beings could see a shimmering red blood world encircling it endlessly as they wondered exactly what had occurred.
---
More than an hour passed as a bloody world revolved around the Royal Castle, and an even smaller bloody world revolved around three beings in the Vampyre Council Hall. The Vampyres to the left and right of the hall were still seated without a single ounce of movement when they felt a change sometime later, the bloody world in the room dissolving as the three beings came out with different expressions.
The Vampyre King had returned to his usual smile, the Prince seemed to be lost in thought, while the human was calm with slight excitement visible on his face.
The Vampyre King sat back on his throne as he waved his hands, the Vampyres on the sides of the hall finding movement returning to their bodies as they breathed out and remained still, turning to look towards their king with reestablished fear as he spoke out.
"Our little friend here presents a unique opportunity that our Dark Expanse has never been able to come across in the last hundreds of years."
His voice was firm as it resounded in the hall, revealing shocking information about the origin of the Pureblood Vampyres as the King continued.
"We have always clashed with Celestials, but never have we garnered an opportunity to get inside of their Celestial Stars, or even have someone on our side among them. This little friend right here..."
The Vampyre King pointed towards Noah as he continued.
"...will be taking the extremely dangerous task of infiltrating a Celestial Star, and would require our forbidden skills in order to not be found out and captured during his infiltration. Does anyone object to this decision?"
A question was asked, yet many knew it wasn’t a question, but simply the statement of a fact!
Count Shytus was the first to reply as he bowed his head.
"No, O Great King. You are wise beyond the years to see ahead to the usefulness this human can bring."

"No objections!"
Numerous voices perked up as their eyes could not even meet the being that controlled their bodies with a simple movement of his fingers, showing their agreement as every single Vampyre in the Council Hall unanimously agreed with the words said by the Vampyre King.
The smiling King nodded as he turned his gaze towards Noah and spoke.
"Now, I somewhat trust you somewhat after our discussion, and understand your need for information. So..."
He then pointed with his index finger towards the center of the wide hall as a runic circle appeared in the air, drawing the shocked gazes of the Vampyre Council as they felt the initiation of Ancient Blood Magic.
"...as a way to prove yourself to me and the pureblood vampyres here, you can enter the Ancient Blood World of our Progenitor."
BOOM!
The shocked gazes only continued as many Vampyres abruptly stood up, about to open their mouths when they recalled what just happened an hour prior as they quickly sat back down while affirming the reality of the Ancient Magic they felt being cast.
The runic inscription finished being inlaid as it shone brightly, a bloody red portal appearing in the middle of the hall as a desolate aura released from it.
"This Ancient Blood World is located near the border of the Light and Dark Expanse, hidden far among the dredged of dead stars. It has the inheritance of our Progenitor, and will have the techniques you seek, as well as allow you to gain more of our trust because..."
The Vampyre King held a wide smile as he spoke out the conditions he had discussed with Noah during their hour-long discussion.
"...only a Vampyre can leave this Ancient Blood World alive."
...!
