The Accidental Vampire

Chapter 247 247: The Traitor



Atlas felt as if he had been caught in a trap. The people here knew that he was coming, and that's why they were ready!

"I am the Prince who is leading this war and the person you are here to kill. Though I'm afraid you might have to change your plan," the Prince stated.

"So you knew I was coming!" Atlas clenched his fist. This was indeed a trap!

The man removed all his forces from outside the forest and even lowered his forces around the ship as if intentionally making it easier for Atlas to get inside the ship. It could only be positive if he knew about the plan! Someone had informed him about their entire plan, but who? Who could do it?

The witches were out of the question. They couldn't have told the Empire about his plan as even they didn't know that he was going to go in alone before the main army.

That only left a few possibilities! It was someone from his core group!

"Of course, I knew it. What kind of idiot won't know?" The young prince asked in response, flashing a bright grin. "Although I must say that your plan was good, but not good enough."

"Did Luna tell you? Was she the one who betrayed us?" Atlas asked, forcing himself to, even though he was inside the lightning prison.

"That stupid sister of mine who sullied the reputation of our Empire? Do you think she is even capable of finding something like this?" The Prince laughed. He was quite amused to see that the first person Atlas doubted was the one that ran to him.

"Then again, If I were in your place, I would've doubted her as well," he further mentioned. "The person who can betray her own family, who else can't she betray? Unfortunately, she wasn't the one who told me."

"Atlan and Lucius! It was one of them!" If it wasn't Luna, then it could only be one amongst the two, according to Atlas.

He was sure that Lilith couldn't do it. Lilith was the last person in the entire world who could betray him, and the second last person would be Lancaster. Even Vor wouldn't do it. As for Tyler, he had no way to do it as he was from his lineage. If Atlas died, that meant Tyler was going to die as well.

That only left the two Progenitors who could've done it.

"Wrong again," the Prince shook his head, once more rejecting the guess of Atlas. It wasn't them either.

"Vor? Or Tyler?" Atlas asked.

Even now, the young Prince shook his head. Wasn't one of those two either."

At this point, Atlas' head had started aching. There was no way it could be Lancaster or Lilith. That only meant the Prince was lying about it not being one of the people he named.

Even though Atlas was trapped, he still wanted to know who it was that did it. Who betrayed him? If the man wasn't going to answer, he was going to force the answer out.

While Atlas pretended to be lost in thought, his hands remained behind his back as he started casting a spell.

He was casting a Teleportation spell. Even though he remembered Luna's words that Teleportation inside the ship was impossible, he had to test it himself. If Luna was indeed a traitor, then there was also a possibility that she lied about this Teleportation ban.

Atlas was really hoping to succeed in this spell because if he could, everything was going to turn out perfect. His Target was standing right before his eyes. All he needed to do was take control by teleportation right behind him.

As long as he could do that, it was his victory. Unfortunately, he soon realized that Lilith hadn't lied about this thing. His Teleportation spell wasn't succeeding, no matter what he tried. The spatial forces inside the ship were indeed chaotic, which affected his Teleportation.

"You seem really eager to know who betrayed you?" The young man asked, observing Atlas' confusion.

"Let me give you a hint. Without that person's information, we wouldn't have known that you would be coming here. And without that person's information, we also wouldn't be able to capture my sister. Luckily, we also managed to capture a bonus with her."

As the Prince mentioned about capturing Luna, Atlas had a really bad feeling about this. If they did manage to capture Luna, that meant their people reached the town where they were staying. And in that same town, wasn't there also Misella?

As he expected, a screen appeared before everyone, showing scenes from an unknown room where both, Luna and Misella, were kept imprisoned. Their bodies were tied in shackles and kept inside a lightning cell as well.

Misella was sitting on her knees, scared. She was asking to be let out. On the other hand, Luna was seemingly unconscious. There were also some burn marks all over her hand as if she had been punching the lightning Barrier to break it so she could free herself.

"Now I not only have my sister back, but I also have your sister with us. Do you now feel my pain when someone from a different world takes your sister and tries to use her against you?" The Prince asked. "Just like you used my sister in the negotiations last time to save your life, it's time for a switch."

"It's time for me to use your sister in the negotiations instead. If you agree, I would free her and only deal our revenge on you. But if you don't take part in the negotiations, you and her... You'll both be suffering. I won't force you though. I'm a nice guy, after all.".

"However, as your sister already told you, I'm quite impatient as well. So who knows, I'll leave that for you to decide."

"Keep my sister out of it. It's my fight with you!"

"Oh, no it's not. It stopped being your and mine battle the moment you decided to involve my sister in it!"
