Chapter 211: Dietrich Road I (1)
Matt also continued reading the book and stopped paying attention to unnecessary things.
The book began with a story from the past.
It was a story about what it was once like to witness the power of existence on the level of the Dietrich Clan. The story starts with the first part, which is about what triggered the destruction of the Sun God and his Star Sun.
It all began millions of years ago when the Vampire World lived and lurked in the night, being a nightmare for many during the night and the rulers locked away during the day.
Humans and the Clan of the Sun, a clan said to have been destroyed, fought against the vampires for supremacy in the world. Still, there was one problem they faced, which was why they could not take control of this world.
The Dietrich Clan.
To many, the Dietrich Clan was the Saint Clan of the Vampiric Race. However, there was a worldly belief that they were the progenitors of the vampires, and this belief had several reasons.
The first was that, despite being vampires, their blood was many times purer than the rest. In addition, they were the only vampires in the world unaffected by the Sun.
Every member of the Dietrich Family could walk during the day as if nothing had happened because the Sun's rays were not a problem for them. Being so powerful and overwhelming during the night, and with the largest Saint Clan of the Race doing what they wanted during the day, how could the Human Race and the Sun Race win over this race?
Even so, although vampires ruled the world, the fact that the vast majority could only move at night was a problem.
And without warning and without anyone understanding the reasons, the Dietrich Clan one day began to make different movements for an extended period of time.
The whole world seemed in a frenzy then, for they did not understand what they were doing, but they could sense that it was something too big.
Among the many theories that existed at the time, the strongest among the vampires was that the Dietrich Clan was preparing to simultaneously destroy the Human Race and the Sun Race. For all the Immortal Clans of the time, this was what they most wanted to happen.
Suddenly, as Matt became more immersed in the story he was reading, a peculiar change of line in the book brought him out of his immersion.
-One day, Master Dietrich came to me and said, "We will destroy the Sun. Gather the entire Vampire Race. The next war might trigger too much trouble, but it will be the best thing for the future. We will create new rules that will govern the world, so all the leaders must be there."
-When such an exalted man as he revealed that to me, I understood what the Dietrichs had been trying to do. It was the preparations to destroy what was the God of the highest level for all of us: The Star Sun.
After that odd line break, Matt had to turn to the next page, where the story continued.
It was a detailed history of what was the beginning of the greatest deed the vampire race could do: destroying the Star Sun.
Plus, it was written in a way that made it seem as if the person who did it had seen it on their own.
That made Matt and Alice dive back into this fascinating story.
In today's world, knowing the history of what was once the Golden Age of the vampire race is the best. Living in the same era as Clan Dietrich was so exciting that many wanted to be there.
The book then began to recount the rules set forth by Clan Dietrich at the meeting of all the leaders moments before Dietrich destroyed the Sun.
The first rule was the creation of an Inheritance Token, which would be given to the Heirs of the Major Clans associated with the Dietrich Clan; they carry Dietrich's blood, and these Inheritance Tokens would be one of the foundations of the world in the future.
Along with these Inheritance Tokens came numerous rules, such as the family's inability to protect the bearers of these Tokens unless they faced mortal danger, in which case the family could do something.
But there were rules for the entire vampire race, not just for those who had this token. The first of these is that under no circumstances could they hold slaves to their own race. This rule was marked in red in this book, which showed its importance.
Numerous rules written here made Matt deep in thought.
Alice suddenly opened her mouth.
"Unbelievable... Was it the Dietrich Clan itself that left us all those rules? And to think that the vast majority of those have been forgotten... I guess the advancement of society has seen that they weren't that necessary and prevented advancement."
Even though she said that, she was still confused.
Technically, the entire Vampire World didn't want to advance. Instead, they wanted to go backward and return to the era of Clan Dietrich.
Because they had realized that they weren't really moving forward. They were advancing toward the direction of becoming more passive rather than toward the path of becoming immortal.
So why would they forget the rules that the Dietrichs put in place?
Matt frowned at her words and looked at the book.
'They are trying to make us believe that bringing back the Dietrich Era would not be beneficial to the race. But no one can deny that the Dietrich Era was the best of the Eras. There is manipulation of powerful beings... All these rules are not wrong.
In fact, if the vampiric world had continued like this, they would be more powerful right now and could not be threatened by the human race.' He thought.
If he looked at the rules described in this book, he could notice important things. The most important thing was that the Dietrich Clan was not preparing just to destroy the Sun.
'It's like they already knew they might face an immense crisis. If I go by my assumptions and think that's real, all these rules and arrangements they were making, it was in preparation for something... What was that something?
Is there something I'm missing?' Matt was very thoughtful about this and wanted to read more about it, but as he turned the page, he realized he had reached the end of the story the book had to tell.
In front of him was a page that read: 'The true description of the Dietrich Road begins'.
It was one of the last pages of the book.
'The Dietrich Road... This means the way to becoming strong, right? This should be interesting.' Matt turned the page.
