Undying Warlord

Chapter 298 The Sibling's alliance

“What did you just say?” Old Jeff’s voice resounded in the large office where more than a dozen people were situated. All of them were staring in a single direction.

Old Jeff looked at the young man, who sat opposite him with an eerily calm expression on his face.

“So…not only do Vampires exist but thousands of them will attack our camp soon? And you are actually happy about that?…” Old Jeff asked for the second time while feeling weak in his legs. He slumped back in his seat without being able to do anything against it before he took a deep breath.

“Are you nuts?” He asked, finally speaking out everyone’s thoughts out loud.

“Probably, but what does it matter?” Dilan returned the question with the same smile he had on his face most of the time.

“You can ask Ailee or anyone else, who was with me when we eradicated the Blood Legion in the fight against the Thunderbolt Eagle. They’ll all agree that we need the Sanctum of the Blood Monarch to grow stronger. A system notification is not something that appears without reason. It has to be an opportunity with exceptional value for those who overcome all hurdles!” Dilan spoke in a serious tone.

He was not as nonchalant as he answered Old Jeff’s question. The reality had clearly shown them that they were too weak. Dilan was barely strong enough to kill the Bronze Tier-2 Thunderbolt Eagle and he was pretty sure that the sole reason for their victory was all the increases he received from exterminating the Blood Legion.

Absorbing their Blood Essence increased his strength to the bare minimum he had needed to kill the Thunderbolt Eagle.

“I can only fight one Tier-2 monster at a time and it is impossible for me to handle several of them at once, not with my current strength, at least. As for everyone else, only Victoria and Yvonne may be able to actually injure an ordinary Tier-2 monster. Let alone killing a Tier-2 monster, even running away won’t be possible for anyone in this group.” Dilan explained the situation in a very clear manner.

Yvonne was inofficially considered the second strongest member in Dilan’s group, with Dilan being the strongest. Nobody except Ailee and the others witnessed Victoria’s strength before but it was quite obvious that Dilan regarded her strength highly.

Thus mentioning the strongest Asceders after him in context to the fact that they were unlikely to be able to kill a Tier-2 monster on their own, everyone turned serious as well.

“So…you want to make use of the fact that you are in possession of these keys that lead to the Sanctum to annihilate all the Vampires for us to gain more strength?

If I heard correctly, we won’t level up from absorbing Blood Essences but will gain lots of stats in addition to a few other gains…and that in turn is supposed to help us kill stronger beasts to gain more status points Essence?” Bianne asked in doubt. She may not be one of their group’s fighters but she was still able to use her head and think rationally.

The situation sounded a bit risky in her opinion and Bianne could tell that Dilan was fully aware of this. However, this was especially what bothered her.

After all, this meant that the threat of Tier-2 monsters was much higher than she could fathom.

While most people in their small circle of a dozen people were still trying to wrap their minds around the fact that Vampires have existed on Milarn even before the Primordial Ascension, Bianne and the others were clearly able to adapt real quick to new situations.

But even if they were fast at adjusting, it didn’t mean that they could ignore everything that happened around them.

The tension in the room was palpable because of everything Dilan had revealed not too long ago but the gaze of two particular women made it almost unbearable for some of them to breathe.

Kathrine’s body released electricity currents every now and then, while Yvonne’s entire existence seemed to be overflowing with the aura of death. It looked like both were about to pounce at the woman, who was clearly vying for Dilan’s attention.

Victoria’s eyes were crimson and by now everyone could tell that she was a Vampire. She was a powerful Vampire and was a new addition to their group which was perfectly fine with everyone. However, nobody could really understand how she ended up falling head over heels for Dilan, in only three days at that.

She was basically begging for his attention and didn’t hesitate to use her body and charm to achieve this.

Meanwhile, Dilan didn’t do anything against Victoria’s advances. He accepted them and kept a light smile on his face. However, instead of letting his bestial desires influence him, Dilan had everything in his control.

Contrary to the vast majority of powerful male Ascenders, Dilan wasn’t staring at Victoria with uncontrollable lust and the desire to tear her clothes apart and ravage her right here and now.

This was the only reason why Yvonne and Kathrine were able to restrain themselves from attacking Victoria. They trusted that Dilan would thwart her advances sooner or later.

“This fucking bitch…she won’t stop, will she?” Kathrine suddenly mumbled quietly and Yvonne could only shake her head lightly.

“Dilan’s willpower might be strong but if she keeps going, he won’t reject her…she is beautiful, and it’s not like Dilan is a monk either…” Yvonne hated to state it out loud but it was a fact that Dilan was just a man and even he had his wants, just like any other ordinary person.

He was not committed to anyone and it was not as if he would do something illegal if he were to sleep with Victoria. It was already a wonder that he was able to control himself right now, while nearly everyone else was staring at Victoria with lust in their eyes.

Even if Yvonne didn’t like to acknowledge it, Victoria was beautiful, proactive and if Dilan were to reject her, this would either mean that he was in love with someone else and loyal to that person, or that he was actually impotent.

Because neither Yvonne nor Kathrine wanted the former, let alone the latter to be the case, they could only curse their rotten luck, voice out their complaints to each other, and try to think of ways to get rid of their common enemy

Unbeknownst to the sisters, they had formed an alliance against Victoria, while unofficially acknowledging that they had feelings for Dilan.

Everyone had noticed this already but the sisters never wanted to acknowledge it out loud. In their opinion, it was not time to fall in love, to become lovers, let alone to think about a relationship and what would come after. They were fighting for their survival, and every single day something terrible could happen.

However, Dilan’s strength, his actions, and the fact that he didn’t exploit his strength to get whatever he wanted whenever he wanted making him even more attractive.

He would never force a woman to sleep with him and his control over his desires was remarkable almost to the extent that even the women were astonished.

In the end, Dilan fought for all women in their group by establishing rules to protect them and he didn’t hesitate to execute his rules and the punishments that followed.

It was only obvious that many women had fallen for him but Dilan had never been interested in them. He did not let anyone approach him easily and had set clear boundaries to make sure that nobody bothered him. Only a few people were allowed to get close to him, including the siblings, Ailee, Bianne, Oliver, Williams, Sven, Xenia, and so on.

However, Victoria was definitely an unknown variable, a very dangerous one as both Yvonne and Kathrine had been too certain that Dilan would keep rejecting everyone…almost as if he was waiting for them to open their hearts to him and to wait for them to approach him.

But that was just their fantasy because Dilan didn’t really think about anything when blocking off everyone else.

He just did so to keep his mind at peace and to focus on the most important tasks; to protect his own life and the lives of the people around him.

“Okay…let’s just say that it would make sense to fight several waves of various vampire groups that would attack us…how are we supposed to fight them? You just told us that the higher Vampires, or whatever they’re called, are much harder to kill than anyone else and that all of them are basically powerful and stronger than the average Ascender in our group.

What does it matter if Tier-2 monsters are a big threat to us if we cannot survive the attacks of these Vampire groups?” Sven sounded a bit frustrated with Dilan but that was quite understandable.

He demanded way too much from his group. All of them would be killed just because they were not able to meet Dilan’s requirements. Dilan was just about to say something when Victoria’s long fingernails tapped on the wooden table in front of her.

Her action was not special but everyone’s attention was drawn to her as she released her charm. A provoking smile formed on her face.

“Aren’t you just a coward that is scared of dying?”
