The Accidental Vampire

Chapter 105 105: Return



"You!" Lancaster noticed a figure in the distance, covered in a black cloak.

Despite that figure hiding themselves in the cloak, Lancaster was able to see a glimpse on the face of that person.

"You are here. How are you roaming free? I thought you were..."

"You thought I was in danger?" A feminine voice came from the distance. "You idiot. First Atlas came, spoiling everything, and now you. Why are you two making things so difficult for me!"

The person lowered the cloak, revealing a young-looking face. Inside the cloak, there appeared to be none other than Lilith.

"I don't understand. You disappeared. We searched everywhere, ultimately coming to the conclusion that you were captured. I came here to save you!" Lancaster exclaimed. "Hurry, we need to leave."

"I can't yet. I didn't come here to leave," Lilith responded.

The sound of her footsteps echoed in the hallway as she moved closer to the Werewolves that kept moving.

"I wanted to do it all alone to keep you all out of it and safe, but it seems my entire plan to keep you safe went down the drain."

Lilith appeared somewhat frustrated. She pulled out a knife, stopping before the two Wolves, who couldn't even roar as a vine wrapped around their mouth.

Thrust~

Lilith didn't even hesitate a little as she killed both the werewolves, taking them out. "I wanted to do it without hurting anyone, but they've seen us now. It'll be troublesome if they are alive."

"I don't understand what is happening here. Why does it look like you have everything under control? And why are you here alone?"

Lancaster's brows furrowed. They were so worried about her, and she was roaming freely here.

"I told you I came here of my own volition. You think the Werewolves can catch me if I want to escape?" Lilith rolled her eyes.

"You... So you made us worry for no reason?! Do you have any idea what you've done?! Atlas is out there, facing the entire nation just because you didn't tell us or worked with us! You! You might be the strongest Witch, but you're not a good person! You should've told us if you were coming here!"

Lancaster had never yelled at Lilith in his life since she was his senior, and he didn't know her all that well, but even he couldn't ignore her stupidity this time! If they had known, so much of this could've been avoided! Moreover, if this was her plan, she could've told them instead of keeping them in the dark!

"I didn't tell you because I knew Atlas would never let me do it if he knew. He is... Not willing to put anything at risk after what he lost. I didn't want to worry him, so I made up a lie."

"So I left him in meditation, which should've taken him days before coming here. Who knew he would be up so soon. You all should've stayed out of it. I didn't want anything like this to happen."

Even she herself was so shocked when she felt the aura of Atlas covering the entire city. She wanted to rush out to stop him, but she controlled herself. The mission was more important for now.

Moreover, she had faith in Atlas. She believed he could protect himself from being captured, at least. Especially with the spell, she had taught him.

"You just... You are beyond my understanding." Lancaster sighed. "How did you even manage to get inside this place without being caught? How did you pass through the guards?"

"I had some help."

Eight hours ago~

"Entering the castle would be a headache indeed. I can cast a spell to hide my aura, but if I pass through the entrance, the Werewolves will sense my scent. Even if I change my scent, it'll still make them know that something is wrong. Moreover, Razil would also be there."

"Even if I use my invisibility, the scent is something which will be sensed by them. They aren't like vampires, who are weak when it comes to that. I need to do something about my scent."

Lilith was walking through the streets of the Royal City, advancing toward the Royal castle as she tried to come up with a better plan. No matter what plan she came up with, every plan had a tiny element of risk of being caught.

"Hmm? That aura?" She stopped in her tracks, noticing a young man in the distance. "He's from..."

"What is he doing here?" She wondered.

Zhang picked up an item from the shop. "How much is it?"

The shopkeeper told the price, which was expensive yet not too expensive.

"That's somewhat expensive. I don't have that much currency of this Kingdom on me yet. I guess I'll have to go back to the Palace to borrow some from Razil."

Zhang placed the item back before moving into something else.

Lilith did manage to hear the small conversation. "Yovana did mention that his clan and the Werewolf Clan are close. If he's in the city and talks about going back to the castle, then he must be staying in the Royal Palace as a guest. That would mean..."

A small idea popped into her mind. Unlike the Werewolves, Zhang didn't have that acute sense of smell. She could use him.

She went back, creating some distance from Zhang. Hiding in an alley, she bit her thumb once again.

She cast a spell on the ground. It was the biggest spell she had ever caught, which took a lot of her blood, even making her dizzy for a little bit.

"If I can't hide my scent from the werewolves, I'll let them sense it openly." She smiled as the spell was successful.

Another figure appeared before her. It was as if there was a mirror image of her right before her eyes which was completely identical to her from physique to aura to scent.

"You know what to do." Lilith grimly stated before casting an invisibility spell on herself.

The clone of Lilith nodded and walked to the place Lilith had seen Zhang last time.

Through an alley, the clone peeked at Zhang, making sure that Zhang saw her. She even released a bit of her aura intentionally to make Zhang realize her real identity after pretending to be a citizen of the Kingdom.

Zhang fell for the trap, casting a sleeping spell on Lilith's clone. Meanwhile, Lilith was watching everything from a distance.

Zhang picked up the sleeping Lilith in her arms like a princess and walked back to the Royal Castle, grinning as if he had received the world's best prize.

Despite being such a powerful wizard, even he couldn't sense that he was carrying a clone. The spell of Lilith was just so strong. The only flaw was that the clone couldn't last for too long.
