Chapter 215: Vlad Zebesta Gula, the King of the Moon (3k)

Lester fully supported Moon's plan. He really couldn't stay in this hellhole any longer.

He wanted to give himself some more sedatives, but the large amount of sedatives he had specially brought from the dwarf had long been drunk by him.

Ms. Lily disagrees:

"We don't know the situation outside. All we know about this castle is the way we came here. And it seems that the other party is very dissatisfied with you."

"But he endured it in public. I don't recommend leaving the hall rashly before finding out more about the situation."

This is very pertinent advice, but Moen shook his head and said:
"Because they think so too. We are not familiar with the situation, nor are we familiar with their castle. So we have to leave before they can fully react."

"But you also said that we are not familiar with the situation outside, or did the dwarf give you this information?"

Moen shook his head and said:

"The dwarves also don't know that the Bathory family's castle only welcomes outsiders as food."

"Then why do we have to act now? At least let me gather some information from the surrounding vampires first."

Lily discovered that the vampires here were extremely interested in her as an elf, coupled with what had just happened.

She was confident that she could get a lot of useful things by dealing with the vampires around her.

In response to this, Moon smiled and said:

"Because I know!"

Looking at the confident smile that Moon gave her, Ms. Lily suddenly felt her heart beating a little faster for some reason.

As mentioned before, in every aspect, Moon is definitely superior to Ms. Lily.

Impacts that Moon had not noticed were already quietly occurring.

For the first time, Ms. Lily lost her composure as a strong woman. She lowered her head slightly to show her compromise:

"Okay, fine. I agree."

"Come on, Lester, let's go."

The racial nature of the vampires means that they would not like to make large-scale changes to their castles.

Because the ancient family castle and the intact historical remains are their pride.

Unless it is necessary!
Therefore, to a large extent, a vampire castle will remain the same as it was thousands or tens of thousands of years ago.

The same is true for Bathory Castle, which is a ducal castle.

Bathory, the one with the severed finger, many vampires and even his descendants knew that Bathory was proud of his severed finger.

But no one knows where Bathory's severed finger came from.

That was cut off by Morn!
Of course, not during the Moon King period, that was too late.

Morn remembered that was what he did when he was searching for the Greater Holy Grail.

In order to stand up for the oppressed farmers nearby, Moon personally went to the mobile fortress of the Bathory family, then defeated Grand Duke Bathory in a fair duel and cut off his finger as a warning.

In addition, Morn also came to Bathory Castle during the reign of the Moon King.

So Moon knew exactly what it was like here.

After following Moon out of the bustling banquet hall.

Lester and Ms. Lily followed Moon straight into the castle.

Lester asked:
"Don't you want to take the same route? If we're competing for time, which one might be the best choice?"

"They don't know that we know their castle very well, so the main road they came from is the most dangerous."

Lester nodded and hurried to Moon and said:

"I'm the Blood Lord, I'm very sensitive to smells and noises, so I can lead you to avoid people on the road!"

This is a good help, and Moen has no reason to object:

"Thank you for your help. It will be very easy as long as we can leave the main city."

"Don't worry, I can definitely do it. I don't want to stay in this damn place for even a moment!"

In this way, Moon, who was originally walking in front, took Ms. Lily and lagged slightly behind Lester, letting him lead the way.

In the banquet hall, no one seemed to notice the departure of Moon and others.

Little Duke Acardo also sat back in his original seat and continued to think about his thoughts which had just been interrupted by his father's appearance.

After a long while, he stood up and asked the member of the Bathory family beside him:

"Can I use your library?"

"Of course, that is also an area specially opened to you distinguished guests! I will lead the way for you!"

Just like ordinary human nobles, vampires also like to show off their accumulation and strength to guests.

A library filled with all kinds of rare books is obviously one of the best ways to display them.

After arriving at the Bathory family's library.

Accompanied by his own courtiers.

Little Akado took a quick look around and followed the instructions to the area where historical data was stored.

Here, there is even an authentic copy of the nobility register held by the Bathory family.

It has always been carefully placed in the most conspicuous position in the library.

It is also right in front of the area where little Akado is located.

At first, Akado didn't care about this, because his family also had it and it was older than the Bathory family's.

After all, the Bathory family register seemed to have been burned once in the early years by a great man who was seeking the Holy Grail.

But when he came here with his beautiful courtier, he raised his eyebrows slightly and paused.

The beautiful courtier following Little Akado immediately bowed and saluted the beautiful woman in front of him:
"Good evening, Lord Barbatos!"

After hearing this, the girl who was flipping through the list of nobles of the Bathory family also turned around.

The handsome courtier beside her bowed his head humbly, stretched out his hand, and gently held the hand of the girl in the moon-white dress.

Following the courtier's instructions, the girl walked in front of little Akado. "Hello, little Prince Akado."

"Hello, I didn't expect you to be here. Please give my regards to your mother, miss."

Little Akado is the heir to Duke Akado.

The girl in front of him is the heir of Duke Barbatos.

Among the eight dukes today, it is hard to say which family is the strongest, but the Barbatos family is undoubtedly one of them.

After releasing Tingchen's hand, the girl pulled Tingchen's wrist and bit it gently.

After a moment, the young girl and the handsome courtier all showed an intoxicated look.

The blood-sucking of vampires is addictive.

This is true both for others and for themselves.

It would only be extremely painful if it was specifically for punishment.

It is said that this was not the original design of the eldest son, but no one knew why He changed His original intention in the end.

After drinking the blood, the girl said to little Akado:

"Now my mother, your father, the father of that idiot Tos, and several other archdukes are all gathered here."

"Perhaps the great changes facing the entire vampire race will happen tonight?"

"What do you think, little Prince Akado?"

Little Akado bowed slightly and said:
“Every day is a revolution, miss.”

"What a tactful answer. My mother has always said that the Akado family has revised its family motto."

"From the Akado family repaying blood with blood to now there will always be Akado?"

Little Akado denied:
"There is no such thing, young lady. Your mother, Grand Duke Barbatos, must have heard something wrong."

"But it is true, isn't it?"

After saying this, the girl left with her favorite courtier.

Before leaving, the girl still said to little Akado:
“There is no way to avoid change. Are you ready?”

Finally, the moon-white girl smiled again:
"I think not, good luck!"

Looking at the girl who walked away, little Akado couldn't help but frown even more.

What does she mean?
Remind me that the Akados have to take sides now too?
But how else can we express our stance?
The Akado family just wants to survive!

We have already sided with Blood Moon without openly offending Dark Moon, what else do you want from us?!

Looking at the direction the girl left, the resentful little Akado quickly forced himself to dispel the depression in his heart and let out a long sigh.

He began to search among the wide variety of books.

This search took a long time.

Until the beautiful courtier was getting impatient and ready to speak.

Little Akado finally found what he was looking for.

This is not a book written by the vampires themselves, but an autobiography of a historian from the early Third Age.

Because he spent his entire life studying vampires, his autobiography is almost all of his research on vampires, so it is included here.

Yes, yes, it’s this book. I remember now, it’s this book!
After confirming that he had found it, little Akado quickly flipped through this ancient autobiography.

Although there are spells to maintain everything in the library.

But apparently no one has read this autobiography for at least a few thousand years.

There was a special smell on it that belonged only to this type of book, and vampires were very sensitive to it.

As little Akado searched.

He finally found what he wanted to see.

Page 666.

Based on the latest document translation, I can confirm that the Gangula family castle that separated from the Marquis Yabatos family is the relic we found.

Judging from the remains of the castle and the destroyed treasure house, it was obvious that they had been attacked by a greedy dragon.

It's really surprising. This is the first blood family that was able to rise again and move forward even though the family castle had collapsed.

I guess that in the disaster that led to the destruction of the Gangula family, some direct members of the Gangula family managed to escape.

Later, due to his outstanding performance and remarkable achievements, he was favored by the king.

He was promoted from baron to earl.

For this reason, they renamed themselves the Tagula Family, and the first head of the family was named Tagula Tagula.

I was just surprised that I didn't find the place where they were crowned as Count Monte Cristo. Maybe it's because the place has been renamed, which is very common.

But why did the Tagula family, which was favored by the king, also disappear?
After finding the fragments of his memory, little Accardo was not relieved of his confusion.

Instead, I became more and more confused.

Because he didn't feel that way.

Suddenly, inspired, he looked sharply at the ancient list of nobility.

Under the moonlight, the honorable name that the girl had once turned over also caught the little Akado's eyes.

He stood up slowly and walked towards the ancient book in a daze.

This is the second page of the roster, but it was added later because this is the second pair of gods and kings of the blood clan.

The two supreme ones appeared after the first generation of gentlemen, but they were far more noble than all the previous generations.

Therefore, it is added here for future generations to admire and worship.

Little Akado's fingers seemed to be attracted by something and touched the name on the roster.

Vlad is Besta Gula, the elegant Moon King holding a spear that pierces the darkness.
