Chapter 999: 16.45 First Red Star - Rebellion

A few hours before the Enthronement Ceremony begins…

Earl Elena Martel met with members from the Templar Temple and the Fenrir Tribe. There were groups that were likewise opposed to their race’s present designated successors. There would always be people battling for whatever cause, no matter what century, race, or group they were from. These individuals happen to be friends with the same people. People who were hungry for something, such as fame or power. These folks will never be pleased till they ruin themselves.

Elder Valla of the Fenrir Tribe was one of them, but at least this old man would not use strangers to make a move against his own family. He was going to do it on his own. Elder Vanu, another Elder of the Fenrir Tribe, is distinct. He is the weakest of the elders but the most ambitious. He would utilize everything and everything to achieve his objectives.

This time, he collaborated with Earl Elena to ruin the Enthronement Ceremony location of the Crowned Vampire Princess, Amber Dawn. This princess happens to be the Young Werewolf King’s friend and temporary Luna. Taking the chance that the young werewolf king would attend his friend’s coronation, the likelihood of the Young werewolf king being assaulted, hurt, or killed is high. Elder Vanu wants to take advantage of this occasion.

The Templar Temple, on the other hand, featured heretics such as the two bishops on the throne, Bishop Mangetsu Kyoya and Bishop Eve Candance, who were dissatisfied with their positions. Although seniors, they were unable to overcome Esther Dawn and Mayonaka Yoru. After all, there is a significant disparity in talent and strength.

As a result, they consented to the Earl’s idea of destroying the Enthronement Ceremony while the three heirs were there. They intended to prove to the Holy Son that they were stronger than Archbishop Dawn with the tainted Blood Clan blood.

Elder Vanu and his group of deviant werewolves. He snatched orphaned werewolves from the pack and experimented on them to boost their strength and powers. Their number was small, yet it was large enough to produce massacres during a crowded event like the Enthronement Ceremony.

“These deviant cubs of mine would be capable of endangering the young werewolf king. He doesn’t have his aides with him at this school, only useless young leaders who lack the strength to guard the Young King. Hehehe it would be better if he died on this occasion,” Elder Vanu whispered.

Meanwhile, the Templar Temple’s two bishop class members, Mangetsu Kyoya and Eve Candance,

“Sigh~ maybe the world is really ending. With how the Pope ended up comatose and the Holy Son walking hand in hand with the Vampire race’s princess…” Bishop Mangetsu Kyoya said.

Bishop Eve Candance responded, “I am more interested if Archbishop Dawn will continue to stay with the Templar Temple after all this. I mean if he left then Archbishop Mayonaka would definitely go with him. Doesn’t that means there would be two open slots for Archbishop’s position?~”

“You guys only need to attack the moment the chaos falls on the Venue. As for who your targets are then… You can choose whoever you want but the Dawn Family is mine to kill.” Earl Elena Martel said.

From the Fenrir Tribe, Elder Vanu said, “You talk big. I thought the Blood Clan cannot escape Blood Suppression from a higher rank. The Duke of your race would be present. Can you even go against his will?”

“We can. He only needs to waver once for his suppression to disappear.” Elena Martel said. “When that happens then… It will be our victory.”

Back to reality, owing to the Duke’s Blood Suppression. Outsiders infiltrated the academy by Earl Elena Martel and arrived to fight the Dawn Family and those on their side.

BOOOM!

At Elder Vanu’s orders, the ceiling of the Gymnasium burst, and many werewolves in their prime descended from above, targeting the stage.

“Your Highness… Tonight, I shall demonstrate to you that this Vanu Amorelle is the most powerful elder in the Fenrir Tribe, far more beneficial than Elder Vilkas and Elder Valla combined!”

Hahahaha~

Bishop Mangetsu Kyoya said, “Stop talking too much. We should do as we had planned!”

“Destroying the building doesn’t seem too hard. Just a bit annoying because of dust and rubbles.” Bishop Eve Candance while covering her face with her black robe’s sleeves. “Is that right? Your Highness, the Holy Son~”

The moment the other races appeared Asher Light and Conri Lycaon also arrived on stage and protected Amber Dawn behind them. 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥.

“As feared, there are some traitors in the pack,” Conri Lycaon said, “But to think it was Elder Vanu and to use his own kinsmen for the experiment. Unforgivable!”

“The two senior bishops?” Asher Light said, “But I knew they weren’t pleased in their position to suppose they’d do this to prove their strengths!”

When the number of their adversaries is compared to the number of individuals on stage, the ratio is 1:3. They were clearly losing in terms of numbers. They would be entirely encircled by attackers if Duke Luther did not use Blood Suppression. Luther’s dark gray eyes glowed scarlet at this incident.

Duke Luther was incensed by what was happening in front of his eyes. The insurrection of a group from the Noble faction sparked pandemonium, which included the other races in the coup d’etat. He was stunned by the fact that the Lord had summoned him to attend the boring Enthronement Ceremony, as well as incensed that an open revolt was launched by Clan traitors led by Earl Elena Martel. Earl Elena and her faction were under Blood Suppression, and the pressure was causing them to not only kneel but also bend their backs and drop their heads to the ground as if being ground by the immense gravity preventing them from moving.

“Just as I thought, there is no use in talking with ants.”

Duke Luther in rage was different from his elegant and graceful self of Noble blood. The present soul is not required to depict the original personality of the vessel, but because his Lord in this world has no memories, abruptly altering the personality of the body he is in would cause confusion and might lead to the Progenitor believing he was replaced. In the worst-case scenario, he would be slain, leaving him with just the role of the original.

Earl Elena Martel, her family, and her friends felt a tremendous amount of pressure build-up around them. They couldn’t even breathe, let alone move. Those that were weaker were simply squeezed by the duke’s aura and perished while spewing blood. Internal organs can be shattered from the inside if too much pressure is applied to the body. Furthermore, Luther D’Arcy was no longer holding back on them and intended to murder them.

Earl Elena Martel pushed herself to speak, her nose bleeding from strain, and cried out of nowhere,

“How long are you going to watch!?”

An unexpected ambush from the duke’s shadow occurred during that brief time of shouting.

These were Athan Vladimir’s parents. They were intended to be imprisoned on the Duke’s instructions, but it appears that Earl Elena Martel liberated them and included them in her rebellion plan. Duke Luther didn’t anticipate this ambush and had to move from where he was standing. This sudden movement caused his Blood Suppression over the Martel Clan to abruptly eased.

Tsk!

“Damn, unrepentant bugs.” Duke Luther said as he waved his hand immediately beheading the vampire closer to himself. That man instantly died and was a minion under the former Lord Vladimir.

Mr. and Mrs. Vladimir takes a step back and retreats after fulfilling their role in the plan’s objective. They merely need to break the Duke’s Blood Suppression and release the Martel Clan from the constraint. As planned, the Martel Clan made their move as soon as the Blood Suppression was withdrawn, attacking the Duke and the Dawn Family, as well as the others engaged in their preparations.

Earl Thana Dawn confronted Earl Elena Martel and stopped her from approaching her daughter. Alaric Blade also barred Earl Elena’s husband. To defend Amber Dawn, Esther Dawn, Asher Light, and Conri Lycaon, together with their minions, had to surround her. On the other hand, the other Noble Lords were attacking Luther D’Arcy from all sides, with the Bishops and Elder Vanu of the Fenrir Tribe assisting them.

He could hardly activate his blood suppression while under assault from these opponents and had to combat them on his own. Being outnumbered in combat was not a wonderful thing to go through.

Amber Dawn mumbles, “There are too many of them. Should I try using Blood Suppression as well?”

“No. You don’t have control over it. If those on your side got affected then… It will be over for us.” The young werewolf king said.

Conri Lycaon was the first one to reject the vampire princess’s idea. But what he had said is a fact, after all, it was just recently that Amber Dawn got her bloodline unsealed. It was even hard for her to control her abilities much less her bloodline skills.

Asher Light suggested, “How about using other elements? What are your elements by the way?”

“I can control, light, darkness, blood, and wood.” Amber Dawn answered.

Asher Light and Conri Lycaon felt that this young vampire Princess is a cheat. All of her Elements were special class and rare types. Mostly even a unique individual only has one or two special elements in control but Amber was born with four rare and special elements.

Esther Dawn chuckles as he overhears their chat from a nearby vantage point. “Sounds like a cheat, doesn’t it? Even I can only regulate light and a little darkness, but I’m skilled with space elements.”

Asher Light said, “You are much of a cheater yourself as well. I can only control light and fire, okay!?”

“Amber, use wood. Try to bind the legs of our enemies. Even a split second slow down would be enough to reap their lives.” Conri Lycaon said.

Amber Dawn closed her eyes and concentrated on feeling the wood elements in her body. She had been employing wood elements as a weapon before totally unsealing her lineage. Yet, because wood is more fragile than metal, she rarely employs it as a weapon. But Conri Lycaon’s idea is to just slow down the adversaries, which she can accomplish as long as she focuses on her targets. Amber Dawn was able to concentrate on managing her elements thanks to the protection of her elder brother and friends. The more elements she has under her control, the more powerful her strikes will be.

Bright green spheres entered her body and then spread across the earth. She cast a control spell based on the wood components after discovering the enemy’s location.

“Tree, bind thee, foes!” Amber Dawn said quietly.

Everyone in the vicinity was startled as cracks developed on the ground. Amber Dawn launched a wide-area attack that caught everyone off guard. Timber branches as thick as an adult arm wrapped over the opposing individuals. The more vines bind them as they go closer to the stage. This put an immediate end to their movements.

“What is this!? A branch? Vine!?”

“Ah! Don’t let it catch you!!”

“It’s too thick. It’s hard to cut it off!! Damn!”

“What kind of vine is this? The fire had no effect on it!!!”

“Ah! My weapon broke!!!”

People on stage were taken aback by the spectacle below them. They could only watch as those apprehended were tied by thick vines and hung upside down. Those who attempted to fire the branches and vines were unharmed, and not a single burn mark was left behind. That was too weird when everyone realized that wood is flammable.

“Amy, did you do anything to that spell just now?” Esther Dawn inquired.

“I incorporated light components to boost the development of the vines and branches; I never anticipated it to make it fireproof and weapon-proof,” Amber Dawn explained. However, the others gazed at her as if she were a geek capable of such precision in her strikes as her first attempts.
