Kila and the other vampires watching the scene unfold couldn't help it, and they all rushed at the king.
The other vampires who were close to the king charged forward too. The two groups clashed as they began to battle it out.
The other vampires who watched what was going on couldn't exactly tell what happened, but it was clear that with the way the king spoke to the new count, they were familiar with each other.
As the chaos was going on, a man with grey hair moved with extreme speed toward the vampire king.
It was Alexander, Henry's father.
He stabbed his hand into the back of the vampire king, causing him to remove his claws from Dexter's neck, and then he fell to his knees.
Alexander pulled his hand out and then walked in front of the king.
"Lucian... Remember me?" The man smiled as he gazed down at the vampire king.
"You...? I thought you would have committed suicide by now..." Lucian said with a smile, and then Alexander smiled and laughed.
"Look at you... Don't forget that the natural veil is broken..." Alexander stretched his hand towards Lucian, and the vampire floated in the air.
"How..." The king was at a loss for words.
The three knights who were fighting and holding Jude back suddenly left him and headed toward the new vampire warlock holding him.
Sarah, Lucian's count, saw that her master was being held and was in danger, so she too left to go and fight.
Dexter only fell to the floor as this all happened, and Kila ran towards him along with Lily and his mother.
Kila carried him, and they all moved to a safe spot. Alexander saw the vampires coming at him, and with a snap of his fingers, a black, transparent barrier covered both him and the vampire king.
"Argh!!" Sarah released a shout from outside the barrier, and Dominic, who stood away, noticed this happening on the other side, and he ran around the field of fighting vampires.
He gasped and frowned as he saw Alexander—a man who caused disruption in the world a few hundred years ago.
"Nahhh! Wake up, goddamn it!" He slapped Dexter again and again, but Dexter didn't even budge.

They could all hear the acceleration of his heartbeat, and then Collins, who was nervous about Dexter's situation, looked at the King of Vampires.
"We have to ask that vampire king what exactly he did..." Collins said, and then he appeared where the counts were.
They tried their best to break the barrier that blocked them from coming closer, and then he reached there.
The counts felt the pressure in the air, and they turned to see Collins walking toward the barrier.
He raised the sword in his hand upwards, and with a single slant swing, more than a dozen slashes appeared on the barrier, shattering a side for him to pass through.
His white hair shone, and his silver eyes were tranquil.
He knocked Alexander out of the barrier and caught the vampire king in the air. Alexander stood up and gritted his teeth as he saw that the king was saved, but a blade neared his neck and stopped, and a sweatdrop trickled down his face.
Jude gazed at him with an angry gaze, and Alexander gritted his teeth as he stayed there.
He jumped backward and pulled out a dozen dolls from his huge cloak, which he was wearing, and a purple aura covered them as they flew upwards.
The counts who were attacking the barrier and their knights suddenly were surrounded by this purple energy, and they all lost control of their bodies.
"Alexander!!!!" Dominic shouted as his body moved against his will towards the boy guarding the vampire king.
"Kneel..."
A word reached the vampires' ears, and they all fell to the ground as a huge amount of pressure fell upon them.
Collins, on the other hand, watched the king as he woke up, and then he grabbed the man by the collar.
"You only get thirty seconds, so start explaining what you did to my brother..."
