Chapter 56: Zrolis City

Some time ago, Zrolis City.

The Supernatural led by Brutal Grey has finished mining the entire Elemental Stone Mine, they are transporting the Elemental Stone to the cargo that just arrives a couple of minutes ago.

Jarvald is organizing the horde of Supernaturals to load the Elemental Stone,

While he was busy, Vivian approaches him from the back.

She then held Jarvald's hand and said, "It's close, I can already feel it", she takes a big breath with a satisfied look.

"I know, my body is trembling with power", He replied while clenching his fist.

Vivian smiles sweetly, "And today, the Silver Mooncress will bloom. Because of the Dark Moon, it will turn into Dark Silver Mooncress enhancing its abilities greatly"

Jarvald laughs joyously, "The Origin blessed me with this opportunity, I am destined to become a great Werewolf", he said pridefully.

Just as they were chatting, Zegrath approaches them timidly.

"Jarvald, the King's Messenger is here", he said while pointing at a Werewolf that has sharp bones coming out of its body and its claws are eye-catching because of how big it is.

Beside the Werewolf is a woman, she has a seductive body that seems to attract the male Supernaturals to her. Two small horns on her head, a black tail that wiggles left and right behind her, and one pair of black wings.

Just from one look, no Supernatural can mistake which race she's from, A Succubus.

Jarvald frowns, "What is Bertolf doing here, and more importantly who is she? I already contacted him yesterday", Jarvald said with annoyance.

Vivian also glances at the Werewolf and clear hate was written on her face.

Bertolf and the Succubus approach them.

The Werewolf has a mocking expression, while the Succubus wears a cold and indifferent look on her face.

Once they arrive in front of Jarvald and Vivian, Bertolf said pridefully, "We meet again Jarvald, this besides me is the representative of all other Supernatural besides the Werewolf, lady Xenarah. I and Lady Xenarah is here to confirm if what you're reporting about the Elemental Stones were true or not"

Then, Xenarah opened her seductive lips and said, "The Ministers wanted to verify if what you report is true, or perhaps less than what you actually got", her eyes are squinting as she scans Jarvald's reaction.

"Are you doubting me?! There are only 600 kilos of High-Grade Elemental Stone there, you can check it", Jarvald rebutted.

"I myself believe you Jarvald", Bertolf said sarcastically before he continues, "Let me check and get this over with"

From the looks of it, Jarvald and Bertolf have a history together.

Bertolf and Xenarah then walk to the cargo and roughly calculates the Elemental Stones in their heads, After checking the cargo they both go into the mine to see if there's some left.

Jarvald and Vivian have darkened expressions, the other Supernatural looks at them with doubt.

"Is the King's Messenger here to inspect Sir Jarvald?"

"There's no way Sir Jarvald smuggles a bit of the Elemental Stones for himself right?"

Hearing the horde started talking about him, Jarvald's head turns red in anger.

"HAVE YOU SEE ENOUGH?! Are you satisfied in making the horde look down on me?!", Jarvald shouted in anger.

His aura is rising to a terrifying level, the lower rank Supernatural steps back in fear.

Bertolf who is still looking around the mine grins as if the aura is just a breeze in his walk, "You're not scaring me"

Vivian held Jarvald's arms and shakes her head, "There's a time for everything", she whispers lowly.

Hearing this, Jarvald retracts back his aura unwillingly.

Bertolf caught Vivian's words as he smiles evilly, "I'll personally escort the Cargo so you don't have to worry much", he said.

But when he's about to leave, Bertolf stops and said, "I forgot, the King wanted to know. Is it true?"

Jarvald was confused, "The new Alpha in the human's territory?", Bertolf continues.

Hearing this, Jarvald nodded his head in confirmation, "I can feel the aura not long ago, although it seems it's weak. Nevertheless, I can guarantee a new Alpha was born in the human territory"

"Huh, that's weird. How did a stray Werewolf get inside the human camp", he replied before walking away.

Vivian then intervenes, "The rally of the human's guilds is approaching, the scout just informed us yesterday. So it will be better if you stay and help us"

Xenarah and Bertolf stop on their tracks, "Why should we stay? Just leave after cleaning up the city. Your work here is done, the Elemental Stone Mine is empty", Bertolf said in confusion.

Then suddenly, Vivian widened her eyes before turning back to her normal composed expression, "The Vampire King just notified us to wait for the princess, he told us to let the princess inspect the city for a couple of days before going back"

Bertolf frowns, he then scoffed, "As if I will believe that, there should be at least 10 Royal Vampire to escort the princess, and based on my knowledge the Royal Vampire is on the battlefield" Bertolf said before turning his body and left followed by Xenarah.

"It's true, the princess is on her way here. They want the princess to not attract attention, that's why the princess is escorted by 4 Haltija", Jarvald said defending Vivian.

Bertolf and Xenarah frown, they nodded their head before they instructed the cargo and left Zrolis City.

After they left, Jarvald spat to the ground in hatred, "Let's see who will bully who after I absorb the Silver Mooncress", he snorted before going back to his hut.

Unknown to Jarvald and Vivian, Bertolf suddenly left the cargo after telling Xenarah that he has something to do.

Xenarah denied his permission but eventually let Bertolf left the cargo but he owes a favor for Xenarah.

Bertolf get back to Zrolis City, 'This Jarvald and Vivian are hiding something, why aren't they going back and risk fighting the human, vampire princess? don't make me laugh. There must be something"

Arriving at Zrolis City,

Bertolf sneaks around the city, his eyes darted left and right trying to find someone.

Although his body is even bigger than Jarvald, surprisingly he can sneak around well by creeping by the side and avoiding crowded places.

His eyes then landed on a certain Werewolf that is not as powerful as the other, Bertolf got even certain after seeing a red mark on the Werewolf's back, the mark of an Omega.

Zegrath is doing his chores, he is getting the food ready for Jarvald's pack to eat.

But just as he wants to turn to the right to wash the meat he got, a hand suddenly grabbed his neck and pulls him into an abandoned house.

BAM!!

The door closes before Zegrath can even understand what's going on, he then looks at the creature that pulled him and tremble in shock.

"Sir Bertolf?!!", he screamed in shock.

Bertolf looks at Zegrath with his piercing gaze, he then said threateningly, "Answer my question truthfully", the claw on his hands glint with sharpness.

This makes Zegrath gulps hard, "I swear I will reply truthfully"

Hearing this, Bertolf nodded his head and asks, "You are the Omega of Jarvald's pack?"

"Yes! Although I haven't done the ritual of joining his pack", Zegrath replied truthfully, he has a sad look while saying the latter words.

Hearing this, Bertolf smiles evilly, 'That's great, he's still free'

To join a Werewolf's pack, the stray Werewolf needs to do a ritual that is held with the Alpha of the pack himself.

This ritual will instill loyalty and obedience to the stray Werewolf, if the stray Werewolf doesn't do this then they are still an unofficial member of the pack and the pack will not help unofficial members when they're in trouble.

"Then tell me, why Jarvald still held the horde and the pack here risking to get attacked by the humans", Bertolf asks hurriedly.

Zegrath then explains hurriedly after feeling Bertolf aura leaking impatiently, "The princess is coming, so they must keep guard of the city until she satisfied her curiosity"

Hearing this, Bertolf was stunned, 'So the princess will really come here'

But then, Zegrath suddenly continues, "There is a blooming Silver Mooncress in this city coupled with the Dark Moon, that's the sole reason Jarvald is willing to guard the princess. If there's no Silver Mooncress, he probably will deny the request and report to the King"

Hearing this, Bertolf widened his eyes in realization, 'So that's why that bitch Vivian said that, you think you can kill me?!'

'I can't absorb the Silver Mooncress because I'm at my limit, but I don't want to let that Jarvald get it either. The Silver Mooncress will emit a powerful moonlight blessing, he will know if the Silver Mooncress doesn't get absorbed instantly, I can't just steal it', Bertolf thought then suddenly his eyes landed on Zegrath.

He then whispers to Zegrath, "Tell me, do you want power?"

Hearing this, Zegrath nodded his head repeatedly as if he's a dog wagging his tail on the owner to get food.

"Why do you want more power?", Bertolf asks in curiosity.

Zegrath closed his eyes for a moment before saying, "It's been a thousand years our race has been sealed. Although I'm young when I'm sealed, the hatred within me is still burning in that thousand years"

Hearing this, Bertolf raises his eyebrows, "I myself hates humans too but...", Bertolf looks at Zegrath's eyes that suddenly burned alive.

He then continues, "I think you bore more hatred than anyone I have ever seen, help me steal the Silver Mooncress and you will gain the power you desire", Bertolf said which makes Zegrath's eyes lit up.

Meanwhile,

Inside the Supernatural Territory, A huge Werewolf that can easily stomp on Bertolf and Jarvald sits on his throne with a lump of meat in his hand.

Three female Werewolves are stroking his fur seductively,

The huge Werewolf is inside a big and spacious castle that is located in the middle of the forest, the Castle is full of Werewolves guarding it.

There are many huts surrounding the castle where normal Werewolves live, it looks peaceful despite the eerieness of the place.

Then suddenly, the throne door opened revealing a seductive succubus.

She kneels respectfully after arriving at the foot of the huge Werewolf's throne and said, "King Baralt of Scarlet Banes Kingdom, I Xenarah from Sallan Family brought you the report from Zrolis City", She said respectfully.

She exposes her seductive cleavage unconsciously while kneeling, King Baralt then waves his hand and sent the female Werewolves away.

"Where is Bertolf?", he replied casually while biting a big chunk of meat on his hand.

Xenarah bows her head deeper and replied, "He said he will keep an eye on Jarvald to make sure and will go back with the horde"

King Baralt nodded his head, "Tell me about the report"

"There are roughly 600 kilos of Elemental Stones mined and it is confirmed by me and Bertolf, the Elemental Stones will be distributed evenly to the other kingdoms. Jarvald said that the horde and him will stay there to babysit the Vampire princess, He also confirms the existence of the new Alpha", Xenarah said explaining exactly what they have found.

Hearing the later part, King Baralt raises his eyebrows, "Hooh, Interesting. Make sure to tell anyone who encounters that new Alpha to contact me, I want to know all of it"

Xenarah bowed her head deeper as a nod, "That's all your highness, I must inform the other kingdoms. I bid you farewell and good day your highness"

Xenarah gets up and wanted to leave but suddenly, "Who gave you the permission to leave my kingdom early?"

King Baralt walks down from his throne slowly, he then approaches Xenarah who stopped mid-track.

"Why don't you accompany me for a while, who knows maybe you will give birth to a hybrid", King Baralt said while grabbing Xenarah's waist.

Xenarah's face darkened while King Baralt grins lustfully.

Inside Ochyra University,

Hera is tidying up her table preparing to leave, but suddenly her phone rings.

She looked at it, it was an unknown number but that day Vice-Principal Charles tells her to pick up her phone when an unknown number calls her.

She doesn't usually answer an unknown number but today is an exception, "Hello?", she said after accepting the phone call.

"Ms. Hera?", the other person on the phone asks.

"Speaking, who is this?", Hera asks after not knowing the voice of the other person.

The other person coughs before replying, "This is Duncan Platchi, I hear that you are the one who brought my son's corpse"

Hearing this, Hera frowns, "Yes, I did. What's the matter?"

"The thing is, I want to ask who are the people there when you took my son's corpse?", Duncan said with a cold tone.

Hera thought for a while, 'It's Rex, Adhara, and Rosie with other unconscious students. This smell like trouble'

"If I remember correctly, there are many unconscious students but the conscious ones are Rex Silverstar, Adhara Alpenore, and Rosie", Hera replied.

Duncan pauses for a few seconds, "Thank you for your time Ms. Hera", he replied before one-sidedly ended the call.

'How rude', Hera thought.

She bit her lips as she types in her phone, "Rex, Duncan Platchi just ask me about Lucas incident. Don't do anything stupid and do what he wants, you didn't kill Lucas so there's nothing to hide"

After thinking for a while, "Tell Adhara and Rosie for me, Duncan is probably investigating you three"

Hera then puts down her phone, she then nodded her head in thought, 'At least I warn them, That's all I can do'
