Chapter 2280 The Growing Unrest Of The Families Of Abyss

-----

In each of the largest castles of each family's territories, the duchess, dukes, princes, princesses, kings, and queens gathered as Astral Projections, communicating with one another, and trying to make sense of everything happening so far in their world.

The three families had been in a constant, yet peaceful conflict for many generations, having waged war for generations, the Vampires had found a relative peace on small skirmishes and battles between elites, leaving alone the larger populations and concentrating on growth and hunting.

Yet even now, it was surprising to see for some of the vampires present, the heads of every big family gathered together, to discuss such important things. The three well known families were here, although their true leaders were not present for obvious reasons, as they wouldn't lower themselves to meddle in such affairs when their power is equal to the Blood God, if not even higher now.

The Dracul Family, known for their mighty military forces, Blood Knights, Blood Paladins, and Crimson Templars, stayed still and in silence, their stoic faces showcasing a harsh childhood filled with discipline and hard work since they were mere children.

King Vlad and Queen Cecilia, the heads of the Dracul Family, were not present at the moment, but their representatives, crown Prince Eidolon and Princess Svenitica were there, their long red hair, sharp crimson eyes, and heavily armored and black and red attire clearly making them look intimidating even to the other families.

The Nosferatu Family, heirs of death and corrosion, were mostly all necromancers or conjurers of darkness and curses. Well known for their endless hordes of Undead and their secretive societies that aren't as open with big cities as the other two.

The Necromancers of Nosferatu's Council were present, while their almighty master, one of the oldest vampires still "alive", the Emperor of Death, was obviously not present, his godly affairs much more important than anything else.

Wearing mostly bone armor and ragged clothes, the members of the Council of Nosferatu always caused a slight disgust to the Dracul due to their lack of disciple and hygiene, and their appearances making them resemble homeless cavemen to their eyes.

Despite that, it was very well recognized how powerful their necromancy was, and how deep their comprehension of death and souls went. The Ancient Kings, half-undead vampires led the Council, and some of the were present, such as the Ancient King Elderstone and the Ancient Queen, Bloodrose.

And lastly, the third yet still very strong family of the big three, the rulers of the snowy lands of Frozenheart, the almighty wizards and witches that study the Vampiric Paths of wizardry and magic, the Hecatenian Bloodline, a family made for magicians and only for magicians.

The shy Vampiress showed images to everyone through a wave of her hands, Illusion Magic was one of the simplest schools of magics and everyone and their mother knew about it in the Hecatenian Family.

And the pictures shown were nothing short but surprising, the interior of the cracks showcased a bizarre and bright, colorful world, where the sky was made up of several different heavens, where countless islands floated everywhere, and where colorful crystals grew in every corner.

The same crystals that had begun raining down over certain areas of Abyss close to the Heaven's Cracks, as they had called them, and which had gathered into large growths of these strange, toxic materials.

"Is that... the visage of another world?" wondered the Ancient King Elderstone.

"Fascinating... a whole new world to conquer, with resources yet to be taken!" smiled Prince Eidolon.

"But that's not all..."

Then, Witch Princess Cerelena showed something else, a completely different picture taken within the thick layers of Miasmic Clouds of Chaos, which encompassed and protected the entire world of Abyss from the outside world.

In there, they saw something, gigantic silhouettes, monstrosities beyond their wildest dreams of all shapes and sizes, and no, these weren't the almighty Chaotic Beasts that dwelled within the confines of the world, in fact, these beasts were being preyed upon by these things, these tentacled beings.

"These beings... The Auras they exuded were definitely of a Cosmic Level, space and time distorted around their presences, and there were hundreds," the princess said. "One of my puppets was able to see one of them, the largest ever, something that could only be described as... a door made of flesh and tentacles. Appraising them has given me only a single result, "Outer Gods"..."

"Outer... Gods?!"
