Chapter 300 A Turn Of Events

A cloaked figure left one house Arthur was watching. The house was the one where the guard lived, so he was almost sure the cloaked figure was the same guard who had talked to him before.

Not only him, but more villagers wearing cloaks left their houses, meeting up at a corner of the village. Arthur followed them and counted at least 10 people.

"What are they doing?" Arthur thought.

He kept his watch for a few minutes, as more and more people appeared, until one of them finally said a word.

"Are you sure they are not here anymore?"

"Yes. We followed them after they left the village. They stopped to camp, and we already searched inside the village and found nothing."

"Good, good. They were kids, after all. Is everyone here?"

"I think so, yes."

"Let's move then!"

Arthur was not the only one there, as Lucas and Liz also saw strange movements and followed as well. They were all invisible, so the villagers did not notice they were there.

He went to meet with the two who were also hiding behind trees.

"Arthur, did you see that? What are those people doing in the middle of the night?" Liz asked.

"No idea. Let's go, we cannot lose their tracks." Arthur said.

The trio shared the same thought, so they kept following the villagers, these who left the village, and walked through a muddy road to past the village.

"Where are they going? What are they doing?"

They followed them for ten minutes, and then these villagers finally stopped in front of a small cobblestone building. Arthur looked at it, and could tell it was a tomb, a place where an undead would rest.

"Is she there?" One of them said.

"Yes, she is waiting for us inside."

"Let's not keep her waiting then."

Arthur did not know what they were talking about, but kept following them once all of them went inside the tomb. Liz and Lucas were there as well, but they were a little more scared.

"Go inside this creepy place? I don't like this at all. What kind of monster could be inside?" Lucas said.

"If you two don't want to go, so be it. I will." Arthur said, going inside the tomb right after.

Lucas and Liz hesitated for a split second, but followed Arthur as well. There was no way they would let him get all the fun. Especially Liz, who wanted to uncover the mystery more than anyone.

The cobblestone tomb had an iron gateway, and then a staircase right after the gate. There were lots of spider webs and bugs crawling on the walls. It was clear no one had cleaned up the place in a long time.

It was dark inside, but they could not use any source of light to not attract the attention of those villagers. A good thing was that the villagers had torches, and all Arthur had to do was follow them from afar.

They kept going until the staircase ended, leading them to a corridor, and then to a double-door made of an unknown material. It had some drawings on it as well, and Arthur knew that could only mean one thing; trouble.

The villagers stopped in front of the door, and one of them took out a key from their pockets, inserting on the door, and opening it up.

A cracking sound of an old door opening, followed by the scent of blood. All the villagers bowed as soon as they opened up the door. Arthur peeked inside this room, and saw a large dining table with some people sitting around it, as well as a throne with someone in it as well.

It was a girl, a beautiful girl with pink hair and two deep red eyes. She wore a fine leather armor tied to her body, exalting her curves.

She did not have any weapon with her, but Arthur could see the level above her head. Level 80! It was an enemy he could take on with ease, but his friends did not have such luxury. They would surely die if they went into a fight.

"You idiots. You let three people follow you here." The pink-hair girl said.

Then she disappeared, grabbing Lucas and Liz, tossing them inside the room. When she touched them, she also casts her own spell, blocking their mana for a while.

As for Arthur, the girl had a strange feeling about him, and did not rush to grab him.

"These three are the youths from the Blood Spear Academy! I thought you said you followed them and were sure they weren't here!" A man yelled, taking off the hood.

It was the chief of the village, and the person he was talking to was the guard. They started yelling and cursing, but the girl said a word, making all of them shut up.

"Who are you?" she said, looking at Arthur.

The villagers could not understand why such a powerful being looked scared when facing a youth who barely had any power.

"My lady Sybille, just kill them." The village chief said, ignoring the orders she had just said.

"Shut up!"

Lucas and Liz were near the throne without moving an inch. Not because they did not want to help Arthur, but because they were trapped by a spell which created some chains made of blood.

Arthur look deeply into Sybille's eyes, and then said, "can you explain me the situation here? I might consider helping you, or just letting you live, perhaps."

She wanted to laugh at first, but when she met his eyes, something inside of her was telling to not mess up with the youth in front of her.

"Before you ask, I am not killing people. Look, everyone at this table is those who went missing. Why are they here? Well, first because I need blood to survive, and I also need allies to search for a way to free me from this place,"

"So I turned these people into vampires, just like me. You may wonder why would they accept this? These people all have incurable illness. Maybe with a lot of money it would be possible for them to have a chance of surviving, but none of them wanted to keep a debt to be passed by generations, so they chose me instead!" Sybille said.

Arthur heard every word and tried to pick up any clue to see if she was lying or not. It appeared she was not lying, but then she could just be a good liar, and not someone who was speaking the truth.

"If I could free you right now, what would you do for me as a reward? And can I trust everything you said is true?"

"What? You can free me?"

"Answer my question first."

Sybille got too much excited after hearing that, but then recomposed herself, and thought about what she could do to make him trust her.

"You know I am a vampire, right? So I do not age. You and I can make a contract, so I will have to follow your orders for one hundred years. After that, you and I can decide what we want to do." Sybille said.

That was a tempting offer. A gorgeous vampire maid for one hundred years. Arthur did not even have to think.

"Okay. I accept you terms. Shall we make the contract first?
