I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot Chapter 998: 16.44 First Red Star - Enthronement Ceremony

Chapter 998: 16.44 First Red Star - Enthronement Ceremony

No one from the Templar Temple realized that the prisoner on the lowest floor had been released while under Mayonaka Yoru's protection. But having regained his freedom, Luciel Dawn did not leave straight away. After all, there are too many opponents outside for him and Mayonaka Yoru to effectively escape with only the two of them. So they decided to wait till the Dawn Family arrived to pick him up.

The former Cardinal decided to remain in the Dungeon in order to reclaim all of the dungeon's energy and elemental abilities. Given enough time, this extracted power would return to his body, restoring him to his former peak of strength while repairing his ailments. Mayonaka Yoru offered to be his bodyguard. Of course, Luciel Dawn ensures that whatever spells or parasites were implanted in the young man's body are removed, and while he hasn't accepted this punk as his prospective son-in-law since he hasn't inquired his son about their relations.h.i.+p, they are still friends despite that.

Back to Genus Academy...

All preparations for Amber Dawn's Enthronement Ceremony had been completed. The person in charge of organizing everything for today's event was none other than Duke Luther. He also showed up to protect the Progenitor's chosen successor. All of the n.o.ble ranked vampire lords had come, as was intended.

Amber Dawn, who had finally awakened her vampire bloodline, had undergone a significant transformation at this point. She used to be an ordinary mortal beauty, but now that her vampire lineage had awakened, her attractiveness had much enhanced. Furthermore, her pink eyes became deep crimson, as if they were formed of blood. The purer your vampire bloodline, the deeper the red their eyes are, yet the Progenitor's eyes were silver instead, for unknown reasons no one knows why.

In the waiting room, at the Gymnasium...

Amber Dawn had arrived, accompanied by her mother and older brother. Both were dressed in suits and gowns typical of rich households. Luther D'Arcy had planned this for them, and with Thana Daybreak's Clan's money, the Dawn family may be called affluent among the rich.

A pristine white gown featuring rose-shaped pink diamonds. The dress alone cost millions, yet Amber Dawn was urged to wear it like any other dress. She now seems to be a rich crown princess who towers above all ladies in the world. Thana Daybreak is a.s.sisting her daughter with braiding and clipping part of her hair with a thornless rose crown. She appears to be much more stunning than previously.

"Amy Darling, you look gorgeous," Thana Daybreak said.

In reality, Amber Dawn is worried about what will happen tonight. Even though she was a well-known a.s.sa.s.sin in her previous life, she had never faced an entire clan of monstrous vampires. She also lacks complete control over her strength.

"Mom, brother, will I be okay?" Amber Dawn inquired.

"Don't worry. We're here with you," the two said as they gazed at one other.

"We will stay with you until the completion of the Ceremony," Esther Dawn remarked, adding that Asher and Conri Lycaon had also indicated they would be there.

Amber Dawn, the princess of the Vampire Race, eventually calms down after learning that not only her family but also her friends are coming. After all, Asher Light is the Templar Temple's successor, while Conri Lycaon is the Fenrir Tribe's young werewolf king. With Duke Luther on her side, she received three supporters from all three races.

"Oh! Yeah... The Gymnasium is within the jurisdiction of Genus Academy, which means... Instructor Skoll and the Headmaster will protect me if someone attacks me within the school," Amber Dawn said.

"Hm... Is that why the Duke chose this location? Or maybe the Progenitor did," said Esther Dawn.

Thana Daybreak said, "The Progenitor doesn't get involved with the Blood Clan unless necessary. We don't even know if he would attend this event with Lord Skoll."

"By the way, Mom. Do you know the relations.h.i.+p between Instructor Skoll and the headmaster? They are always together and even live in one place. It's weird right?" Asked Esther Dawn. When he turned around he saw his mother and younger sister looking at him like an idiot. "Did I ask something wrong?"

"How can you not know, Brother? Obviously, Instructor Skoll and the Headmaster are lovers. Of course, they would live together." Amber Dawn said.

Thana Daybreak said, "No wonder, Alaric said that my son is dense. That little cub... He had it hard."

The Earl was referring to Alaric Blade, who was working incognito as an ordinary priest at the Templar Temple, looking for signs of her spouse. She often urges him to protect Esther Dawn in secret and was once caught by Mayonaka Yoru. Alaric Blade had no option but to inform the young kid that he was there to protect the Young Lord and keep the situation hidden from Esther Dawn. This man was the source of her son's news.

Esther Dawn asked, "What are you talking about, Mom?"

"Just how dense you are to people who love you. Yoru-kun said that he had been pursuing you for a long time though." Thana Daybreak said. "That little cub is truly loyal. He would send me pictures of you through Alaric."

"Mom, why do you know about Yoru?!" Said Esther Dawn with red cheeks and obviously embarra.s.sed.

Amber Dawn became aware of her mother and eldest brother's talk. This Yoru must be her elder brother's long-time suitor, while also discreetly protecting Esther Dawn.

"Is this Yoru your lover, Brother? When are you going to introduce him?" Amber Dawn asked teasingly.

Esther Dawn yells, "He is not!"

"Brother, denying it like that makes it more like a confession instead." Amber Dawn said.

Esther Dawn said, "How can your words be so similar to Asher's words? Hah~ but I will introduce him to you in the future. Maybe at least after we save Dada."

"Okay, then we can wait for it." Thana Daybreak said.

Knock. knock. Knock.

Viscount Alaric Blade walks over to call them on the Duke's orders. After successfully locating Luciel Dawn's jail, his undercover was terminated, and returned to his home region.

"Lady Amber, Earl Thana, and Young Lord Esther, it's almost time," Alaric Blade stated.

The Viscount is a young man with crimson hair that has been braided and pink eyes. He's now dressed in a wine-red suit. Esther Dawn knew the Viscount from the time he appeared.

Esther Dawn called, "Priest Alan!?"

"Greetings, Archbishop Dawn." Alaric Blade said.

"Hm... I never thought Priest Alaric was a Vampire and Mom's person. But what is this about Yoru?" Asked Esther Dawn.

Viscount Alaric Blade answers, "Well, I was sneaking in once to check the Prisons to look for Lord Dawn but I was caught by Archbishop Mayonaka. I was about to escape but when he learned that I was there to look for his father, Archbishop Mayonaka let me go. All the information about the Underground Prison I report to the Earl is from him. Young Lord, Archbishop Mayonaka was truly devoted to you. Didn't you know he asked to be asked to that Prisons, this is because he wanted to help you look for your father as you said you believe that he isn't dead at all?"

"Um. I haven't met this Yoru yet but... Brother he seems to be a good man. Don't let him escape!" Amber Dawn said with her thumb ups towards her elder brother.

"Hoho~ it seems this old lady finally has a candidate Son-in-law~" Thana Daybreak said.

Esther Dawn said, "Okay, that's enough. Let's go on stage."

"It's almost time. We should go, Earl." Alaric Blade said.

As predicted, everyone makes their way to the stage. The Dawns made their way to the stage, where Duke Luther D'Arcy was waiting. The n.o.ble cla.s.s vampires had all congregated in the audience area, and Earl Elena Martel and her family were the most upset about this occurrence. Elena Martel nibbled her nails as she stared at the family on stage, particularly Amber Dawn, who had stolen her hopes of being a pureblood like the Duke.

"How can it be someone from the Daybreak Clan!? My Clan is stronger and larger than theirs; what can half-blood brats have to become an heir!"

"Wife, calm down. The Duke is also around." Her husband whispered.

They were conversing in this manner when they saw a frosty gaze in their direction. They were taken aback when they saw the Vampire Duke's frigid gaze. They couldn't stop s.h.i.+vering under their eyes. However, the Duke was uninterested in them and quickly s.h.i.+fted his gaze from them.

"Everyone was here today to witness the Enthronement of the next successor of the Blood Clan, this is the candidate that was authorized by the Progenitor himself," Duke Luther said.

"Please come over, Princess Amber."

Luther D'Arcy requested. Everyone notes how nicely he addresses the little girl. Amber Dawn approached the Duke, holding Luther D'Arcy's outstretched hand. The only duke of the Blood Clan kissed the back of her hand and paid his respects to the newly selected heir in front of everyone.

"Salute to the Princess!" Duke Luther said to the rest of the vampires.

The directive was obeyed without hesitation by half of the n.o.ble Clans, but the Martel Clan and those under their protection remain standing. They were all standing behind Earl Elena Martel, demonstrating their support for this group and opposition to the Vampire Princess Enthronement.

Earl Elena Martel in a black mermaid cut gown with black gemstone embroidery. She rose from the crowd, and the rest of her people followed. "I do not believe a Dhampir like her should be selected as the successor of the whole Blood Clan, not only because her blood was tainted with human blood, but also because she comes from that traitor clan, the Daybreak Clan. She isn't worth it!" Elena Martel remarked.

"Exactly! Why can a half-blood become an heir!"

"There are far too many Clan members who may be candidates for a successor. Why choose an outsider?"

"Isn't this unfair for the others who were born in the Clan!?"

Thana Daybreak had antic.i.p.ated a great deal of resistance. She looks at Elena Martel, who has the same authority and status as she has. Nevertheless, unlike Elena's clan, the Clan of Daybreak was on the verge of extinction. Only Thana Daybreak has remained in the Clan for years, but her children, Amber Dawn and Esther Dawn, have returned, and she is no longer alone.

"Words of the Progenitor are absolute. Amber Dawn was selected by the Supreme Monarch. That isn't anything, you n.o.bility can change no matter what!" said the Duke.

"Kneel!"

He used blood suppression on all the n.o.ble Vampires. A heavy pressure all fell on them making them kneel against their will.

"People like you had no choice but to follow the command of the absolute bloodline. I would like it if you knew your place."Luther D'Arcy said as he looked down on the group opposing the ceremony.

Argh!

The only individuals who are unaffected are those who are not members of the Vampire race, as well as the Daybreak Clan and those who work for them. The remainder, including the Martel Clan, were crushed. The Dawn siblings were astounded to witness the potency of Blood Suppression from a Duke-cla.s.s Vampire. Those who were weaker than the duke had no option but to follow; nothing else matters in the face of ultimate might.

"Blood Suppression. It's as potent as ever. It's highly useful for individuals of the same kind. Knowing is one thing, but seeing is another. I heard the Duke's Blood Suppression also works on creatures other than vampires."

"The Lord Progenitor's Blood Suppression is stronger. It impacts everything in this world. it's like an Absolute Domain that has made it such that no one can do anything against him," Thana Daybreak said to her son.

On the other hand, Amber Dawn observed something else approaching the Gymnasium. The aura emanating from the outside was filled with bloodthirst that even a layperson could detect. Yet, only the Fenrir Tribe has access to wild blood desire.

Amber Dawn said, "There are uninvited guests! A lot of them."
