"Matthew Dietrich, I don't need to hide something you already know. I called you in today to grant you a status in the Kingdom. I was originally planning to test you to give you one that was a bit special, but I think that one wouldn't suit you for what you want, and there is one that suits you better.
Since you already won the Battle of the Halls, it also suits you great, since you already have a status in the army." He said and took out a small blank parchment, on which he wrote a few things.
At the same time, he took out a small token and smiled.
"Matthew Dietrich, you need not worry, as you wish; I will not bind you to the Kingdom. The status I am going to grant you has not been issued from my realm for many years, but I think today is a good opportunity to issue it. Still, I will not force you to take it, for it comes with a small condition." He said and then cut his finger a little to make the blood fall on the scroll he had taken out.
Then he tossed the parchment into the air.
"I, Dawid Lewis, the Dark King, will be issuing an important communique to the Vampire Community of the World today. Please record my words under this bloody oath." He said, the parchment glowed with a deep red hue, and the letters glowed with gold.
This stunned the entire room, who looked at him in shock.
'What does the King intend?' thought many, stunned; even Alice was stunned after seeing this.
She hadn't expected a move like that, and no rank came to her mind that had anything to do with this.
Still, the princess of the kingdom could see something.
"Father!?" she shouted in shock after seeing this and tried to stop him, as she knew what he would do.
Still, her father gave her a stern look.
It was the first time her father gave this look to his daughter, who usually has a strong temper. That surprised her, so she recoiled a little.
Still, seeing this look on her father's face made her realize that he was determined to do it, which made her angry.
Still, the King looked at Matt once more.
"Matthew Dietrich, as King, I want to bestow upon you a rank that not only applies to my kingdom but also within the Five Kingdoms, so your status will be as high as you can imagine. It is one of the highest and most exalted statuses that can be bestowed upon a vampire and you will be the youngest of this group.
Under bloody oath, I will bestow upon you the rank of a Bloody Vampire General." The King's voice sounded firm and without hesitation.
Once he had decided to do something, he would not back down, for that meant he had already considered all the pros and cons of doing it.
This made the King smile even more.
'His personality is perfect. Only a Bloody General should be able to act like this when faced with such an incredible rank like this.' The King thought, smiling slightly.
Then he spoke and tossed Matt a token.
"It's a mission, Matthew Dietrich. A mission to carry out in that place." He spoke.
Matt frowned and looked at the token in his hand.
As soon as he saw it, his eyes widened.
'Clan City!'
His mind was boggled after recognizing this symbol, for it was a Clan City member token.
It is such a distinguished token that few people have, and it signifies excellent status and power among vampires.
'No wonder... The fact that it's giving me such a good rank is, naturally, because it comes associated with something dangerous. A mission to the city of clans...' He thought and frowned.
He couldn't turn down this proposal so easily, first because the rank is tempting and second because he wants to enter the City of Clans.
He was giving him the opportunity to go there, and if he completed the mission, he would have a really important status.
Still, he could not accept it easily either.
His desire and the status he would gain are one thing, but he will not risk his life for an impossible mission.
Right now, he knows that he cannot make waves in that city because he is only a tiny piece of a puzzle being manipulated by others.
No matter what, he would not be blinded by something so small, even less knowing that he could reach unimaginable heights for these people as long as he kept training.
That's why Matt looked at the King once more.
"Like I said, I won't risk my life for anyone. Just looking at this, I can think that it's an impossible mission. So, can I hear the mission's contents first? Then I will decide accordingly." he said.
