Chapter 215

215 Night Falls

[Nick’s P.O.V.]

At this moment, my master was sitting on the sofa in the living room of the safe house, staring at the clock on the wall while I stood behind him.

The Sun was about to set. Once it completely disappeared from the horizon, the dark night would fall.

“Nick, how many people are there in the vampire army?”

“Sir, according to your instructions, one general, ten captains, and two hundred members.”

“So there’s a total of 211 people.”

“Yes, sir. If you feel that it’s not enough now, I’ll ask them to increase the number.”

“No need, the number of soldiers in each werewolf pack will not exceed 10% of their entire tribe. Moreover, that place is close to human territory. Those ordinary vampires are as stupid as you are, willing to slaughter humans too. I want to minimize the risk of exposure. What we have should be enough for now.”

…..

“Yes, sir.” This might be the thousandth time he had called me stupid for no reason.

I had been with this madman for many years. He would always yell at me at any time or occasion, casually insulting me like before or beating me up. There was a permanent scar from when he once beat me up. And that was only because I did not find a dark wizard who wanted to work for him within the two hours he requested.

But I could not find a reason to kill him. Apart from the fact that I was completely no match for him, it was also because my mother was his sister. He could be considered a relative of mine, even though I did not want to have such a relative.

“Nick, where are my pills?”

When I heard him ask me this question, I turned pale with fright. I couldn’t help but feel my legs trembling.

“S-Sir, I’m sorry. I forgot to bring them with me.”

“Then hurry up and go get them! You useless trash!” He roared at me and used his strength to throw me into a corner.

I trembled and disappeared in a puff of smoke. I had to go back and get the so-called pill. He would sometimes take that thing before a large-scale war. It came from an old Japanese dark wizard. But in the east, they were not called ‘wizards’ but ‘Taoists’.

My master had used force to enslave the Taoist to refine pills for him until now. Their techniques seemed to be a family heirloom of the Taoist priest’s family. They would use guarana, arisaema, ephedrine, toad venom, and more oriental materials that I did not know to make pellets that were said to excite the heart, stimulate the central nervous system, and enhance combat effectiveness.

Although I had always thought that this thing was just an IQ tax, my master still took it sometimes. He was very blind to some things that he thought were trustworthy.

I even wondered if he might die of blindness if I decided to fake his pills during before I pass them to him? I had never done this before and I might get crushed to death by him before I did.

Once I got the pills he needed, he took one. I watched his Adam’s apple quiver, which made me swallow. In the time to come, he would gradually become more arrogant and more manic.

“Where are my troops?” asked he when his gaze fell on me again, .

“My Lord, they are already waiting for you outside the borders of Sunset Pack.”

“Then why are you still standing here? Get over there! Tell them to get ready! And strictly forbid any human victims!”

“Yes, Master.” I frowned, but still lowered my head and flashed out of the villa.

When I reappeared, I was already at the border of the Sunset Pack’s suburbs. It wasn’t too far from our safe house.

I saw the vampire army waiting for my master’s instructions. The leader was their general and a few captains. Everyone was armed.

“Nick, where is Sir Nicholas?” asked the general to me.

“He should be here soon. He wants you to focus on this war and strictly forbid the killing of humans to avoid unnecessary trouble.”

“Did he have a good time at that gay bar last night?” The general ignored my question, looking like he wanted to pick a fight. The rest of the army started to murmur.

“General, please stop gossiping. I can’t guarantee what will happen if Lord Nicholas hears about this.” But he only raised his eyebrows.

A minute later, my master appeared, and we bowed in respect to him.

“You all know why you’re here,” said my master. “Because there’s a motherf*cking Werewolf of Chaos here, and she’s a powerful wolf. I need you to capture her alive. She’ll be gifted to my best partner, with whom I will build a world ruled by both vampires and werewolves. That’ll be the best era.”

Everyone lowered their heads staying silent to make the wolves unable to sense us.

“Lord Nicholas, we will listen to your arrangements. Do you have any specific plans?” asked the general.

“We will infiltrate Sunset Pack and kill any werewolves who attempt to retaliate. The smart thing to do is to take a woman or cub as hostage while you move.” Then, Lord Nicholas pulled a photo of the target and said do not kill this person. I believe you have studied this photo. Do not approach her alone. Her abilities may turn you into ashes. Act as a group, threaten her with a hostage, and capture her alive.”

“Yes, my Lord.” Once Nicholas finished his announcement, everyone bowed to him again. Then, their pupils turned into slits and my master’s eyes turned blood red.

A war was about to begin that would change the world, even if it was just such a simple mission.
