Chapter 186 186: Who Says I Didn't?

"Ramiun, what are you doing here?" Elisi asked, frowning.

"What do you mean what I'm doing here? I'm here to get what belongs to me."

"Nothing belongs to you here. You were useless who couldn't even execute your plan! I had to execute it! I took all the risks, so all the rewards also belong to me! I really advise you to leave if you don't want to die at my hands!"

"You executed my plan?" Ramiun smirked. "Well, technically, you're right Elisi. But not in the way you think."

"Want to hear a secret?"

Elisi frowned. She didn't know why, but seeing the amused expressions on Ramiun's face, she felt that something wasn't right. Shouldn't he be angry that she stole her plan and used it? Why did it seem like everything was still according to his plan?

"What secret?"

"There is no Origin Weapon here." Ramiun laughed. Are you really so stupid that you believed whatever I said without using common sense at all? If they had an origin weapon, you think they wouldn't come to kill us directly? You think they would keep that thing in a safe as an artifact?"

"They don't have any Origin Weapon?" Elisi frowned. "You're lying. You would never take such a big risk if there were no Origin Stone!"

"I took what risk, my dear Elisi? I don't see any risks that I might've taken. What risk are you talking about?" Ramiun exclaimed in confusion. "From where I'm standing, you took the risks. You betrayed the Blood Council! You freed our enemy! You are a traitor. You took all the risks, not me! I didn't take a single risk."

"You! You used me!" Elisi understood everything at this point. From the tone of Ramiun, it was clear that it was what he wanted! He made her take all the risks! But still, it didn't make sense! Why would he have her do all this for no reason?

If there was no Origin Weapon, why would he want the Kingdom of Wolves to be destroyed? Why would he have her release someone who could kill them all?

"Why?" She asked. "Why all this? Why did you make me do it if there is no Origin Weapon? I don't believe you! You're lying now!"

"Do I really need to lie?" Ramiun shrugged. "And that too, for someone like you?"

"Why then?" Even though Elisi was angry, she didn't look scared. Instead, all she had was curiosity. She wasn't scared of Ramiun. "You can't say that it wasn't risky for you. What if I had informed the Blood Council about your letter?"

"I knew you wouldn't. Because I know what kind of person you are. You aren't someone who will let go of this opportunity. You have the most greed out of all of us. If there was one person in the Blood Council that I could've fooled with this lie, it was you. That Greed of yours helped me a lot, honestly."

In the Bloody City, two Vampire Lords of the Blood Council talked to each other. There was a hint of conflict in the air, which made it seem like a battle could begin at any time, but fortunately, it hadn't until now. Elisi's curiosity was stopping her from attacking Ramiun in anger. At the same time, Ramiun also didn't keep Elisi in the dark.

Elisi had troubled him a lot in the past. Now that he had a leading edge, he wanted her to know just how big of an idiot she was and how she wasn't nearly as smart as she thought. She had jumped into the trap on her own, without any additional push.

"It still doesn't make sense. Just to bring me down, you used a self destruct option? I don't think even you'll be that big an idiot. You know Vor is free. And he won't rest easy without killing us all. You can't say there's no risk for you in case he comes after you to kill you, which is inevitable!"

"I'm sure there is something in this town that made you do it! Something that you believe can help you stop Vor! And that can only be the Origin Weapon! You're trying to fool me, but it won't work."

"Elisi, as I said before, do I really need to fool you at this point? As for why I did that, I don't think you'll ever know. Now that I've used you to the fullest, I don't think I'll be needing you anymore."

"Just imagine the praise I'll get from the Blood Council for taking you to them at this point. Of course, I can't take you back alive. Even though no one will believe you when you say that I was behind it, I don't want to take the risk. I'll be taking a dead Elisi back since dead people are the best at keeping a secret. Isn't that right?"

"Hah, Ramiun. It seems you've forgotten who you're talking to! Just because you have some extra men here, you think you can take me down? Did you forget the last time we fought?" It was Elisi's turn to scoff as she remembered how their last battle went.

Elisi wasn't the strongest in the Blood Council, but she was definitely in the top tier.

Being reminded about the past, Ramiun's face twitched unwillingly. He could never forget that embarrassing day when the two of them fought. He was thoroughly defeated in an instant, but that is also what led to him working even harder to become stronger.

Their last battle was over five hundred years ago, and he had progressed a lot in those five hundred years! Enough to think that the outcome this time was going to be different.

"The past was bad for me, but the present will be tragic for you." Ramiun declared.

*When I last fought you, I didn't have a goal. I didn't have a wish. But this time, it's different! This time, you're standing in my path, and I can only get to my destination by defeating you! And that's exactly what I'll do!"

"You and what army? Even if you had Half the Blood Council behind you, I believe you still couldn't defeat me. And if I want to leave, even your father can't stop me. So how do you expect to kill me? Mister Mastermind? Don't tell me you didn't think about this?!" Elisi snorted. "Believe it. You can't defeat me. But I'll still give you an opportunity. Join me. We can retrieve the origin weapon and work together!"

"Who said I didn't think about how to stop you?" Instead of taking her offer seriously, Ramiun said in a mocking tone.
