Chapter 159: The consecration

News had reached many these days that a new Bloody Vampire General had been announced to the World, so many rushed here as soon as they had the chance.

High-ranking people from the other Kingdoms were sent, but some of the Bloody Vampire Generals were possibly among them.

This was a simple consecration, but it had to do with the world's power structure.

They were inserting a new power into the World that could shake the power structure shortly.

Also, the fact that he received 1 Star at the time of his announcement showed that he had accomplished great things.

How powerful was he? How young was he? What is his identity?

Most of the current Bloody Vampire Generals came from wealthy families, but they are people who have strived on their own to achieve their great statuses. Did he belong to a family of Dukes or Marquises? Perhaps he was a rich man without nobility.

The other case is that he was the powerful subordinate of a Heir. Considering the Heirs in this Kingdom, their eyes were on the Heirs of the Murphys and the eldest son of the Allens. Who of them got the rank this time?

Still, many others somehow congratulated the King, with obvious intentions.

They thought it was his daughter who had attained the rank.

After all, besides the Kingdom's youngest Army General, who else deserved that rank in this Kingdom?

Still, the King simply smiled mysteriously and did not say much.

Soon, it was time for the consecration, and the gates opened.

A giant red carpet was laid from the central part of the square to a massive gate through which the Bloody Vampire General would exit.

The decorations around the square were red and gold, while the chandeliers were illuminated in gold and white.

The setting had been prepared to give the feeling of light mystery and bloody battles.

The red of the decorations looked like blood and was everywhere. Even the red of the carpet was the same as the decorations.

Light golden lights added to the elegance on each side of the carpet.

Soon, a trumpet sounded in the surroundings, and everyone fell silent.

The sound of the trumpet spread to every corner of the vast capital city, so everyone who had some knowledge of the army in every corner of the city made a salute and stood in that position, facing the castle.

It was a sign of respect for the birth of a legend.

Still, some people of very high rank were not convinced.

So much so that many stood up at that moment.

"King Dawid Lewis, wait a minute!"

The first to speak was a man with a thick voice. He removed his black clothes immediately, revealing his robes as a Bloody Vampire General.

The King stared at him after this.

"General, please speak." Dawid replied.

"I am opposed to this. It makes no sense. Bloody Vampire Generals tend to be chosen from the younger generation; I can't deny that. But it is always the younger generation who have over 10,000 power and have done various accomplishments for the vampire race. What could a small student have completed? I have connections in the Vampire Academy, and I am sure he does not belong to the First Academy.

How is it possible for him to be promoted to such a high rank?

"I cannot accept it; if you promote him to be a Bloody Vampire General, not only will your name be tarnished, but the name of all those who strive day in and day out to obtain the rank, like Miss Lewis." He spoke firmly and softly without raising his voice too much and without disrespecting Dawid Lewis.

And the fact that he brought up the subject of his daughter caused Dawid Lewis to frown.

But, following him, several people stood up to voice their opinion.

"I agree with the General!"

Numerous voices of older people and a few younger ones.

Among those was a young man who, like the previous one, removed a black cloak from his back to show his identity.

He was not a Bloody Vampire General, but his status was high. The clothes he was wearing right now were a uniform of the Kingdom. He did not represent the army.

He represented the Heirs to the Throne!

He was a respected and recognized person in the KKingdom

He glared at the King.

"King Dawid, I respect you and am grateful to you for giving me the opportunity to be an Heir to the Throne. But this time, I have to oppose you. Miss Lewis should be in that rank now. That you would pass over her accomplishments to bestow that rank on a student like him is a mockery to those of us who are trying to achieve great things in life. I disagree."

His voice echoed throughout the place. Once again, he used the King's daughter as currency to get Dawid Lewis to desist from this.

Dawid Lewis stared at him for a moment.
