The Accidental Vampire

Lancaster had just returned to help Atlas sneak inside the Carlisle Castle to recover his sister's remains, only to hear the news that things were worse. Within a day of him leaving, Atlas was not only caught, but he was also having to fight for his life.

Lancaster had stayed in the city for most of his life. He knew what Arena these people were talking about. Without wasting a single second, he dashed to the arena.

When he was in need, caught by Vampires, Atlas came to his help. And now, it was his turn to place his life on the line to save him if there was an opportunity.

****

Most of the Vampires had received the information about the battle that was going on. Even the Vampires that were in the castle went to the battlefield, leaving most of the defense at the hands of very few.

Fortunately, no one important was inside the castle so that they could leave.

Only five Vampires were left, guarding the entrance of the Castle.

Lia reached the vicinity of the Carlisle Castle and observed the entrance, noticing five Vampires that were guarding the entrance.

"Five of them. It won't be easy."

She soon thought of a plan that could come in handy. There were only five Vampires, and inside the castle, there weren't any for the most part. She could guess that much. So as long as she could get past these five, she could get inside the Castle.

This was an opportunity she wasn't going to get again.

She spread her arms as she started chanting a spell.

As for the spell, she didn't even have to think twice before deciding on what spells to use. She had just seen that spell in action. She used the Shroud of Mist as well.

Within seconds, she finished chanting the spell. A strange mysterious mist appeared in the surrounding area and kept increasing, covering more and more area.

Unlike Atlas, Lia was an experienced Witch, so her spell was also stronger since she wasn't using it the first time. The mist this time was even denser and more in quantity.

Most of the surrounding area was covered in mist which rose to over twenty feet in height, covering all of those five Vampires, taking away all the visibility.

At the same time, she cast the Flight Spell. Her body started rising in the air.

She came flying to the Castle right before the Five Vampires, yet none of them could see her.

The Vampires wondered where this must have come from as they became alert.

Unfortunately for them, Lia wasn't affected by their alertness. Since she was flying, she didn't make any noise of footsteps. Moreover, she didn't need to enter through the main entrance, which was blocked by the Vampire.

She instead landed on the balcony of the castle on the First Floor. She placed her finger on the lock.

Click~

The door unlocked, allowing her to enter the place. She shut the balcony door behind her.

"Finally, I'm inside the Castle. Now I just need to find the Book of Lady Lilith. I need to be fast because Carlisle will kill him soon. The Vampires will be back. Before that happens, I need to be done and get out of here. But where could they be keeping the book in this massive Castle?"

She started running down the hallway, not knowing where exactly the Book of Lilith was being kept. She realized that if her luck was bad, she was probably going to need to search every room for the Book.

****

At the same time, a portal opened inside the city. An old woman stepped out of the portal, followed by a Vampire from the Carlisle Clan.

"Finally, your master has agreed to give me the Book of Lady Lilith in exchange for my help."

The old woman appeared to be really pleased. She was the leader of one of the Witch Clan that worked with the Vampires in exchange for some benefits.

Throughout the years, she knew the Carlisle Clan held the Book of Lilith, and she had been asking for it. Unfortunately, Carlisle always refused her.

She also couldn't go to war for the book since she didn't believe she could take on the Vampires without losing most of her clan in the process. She tried to get the book through diplomacy, and finally, she was close to success as Carlisle herself called for her help in exchange for the Book of Lilith.

She gazed toward the Carlisle Castle in the distance. She could see a strange mist in that direction that was surrounding the place. At the same time, she could also feel some strange energy presence in a different direction.

She wanted to check the strange energy presence that was really intriguing to her. However, what intrigued the old lady more was the mist around the Carlisle Castle.

She realized this wasn't any ordinary Mist. This was the mist conjured using some spell as far as she could see. That only meant one thing... Another Witch was here, and he wasn't here with any good intentions.

"Carlisle called for me, so there's no way he would invite someone from another Witch Clan. That means this is an intruder who came here without permission and used the Shroud spell to get inside undetected."

"For a witch to sneak inside the Castle, there could only be one goal! The theft of the Book of Lilith! I can't let the book fall in the hands of other clans!" the old lady exclaimed.

She clapped her hands once, making the entire mist disappear.

"Tell your master that there is an intruder inside his castle, and I'm going on to catch that intruder before she gets her hands on things she shouldn't." The lady informed the envoy behind her before she advanced to the Castle.

"Intruder in the Castle?" The envoy exclaimed in shock.

He told the five guards to accompany the old Witch in looking for the intruder as he went to inform their Master!

The old lady stepped inside the Castle, being escorted by the Vampires. Two witches were on the path of the collision inside the Castle, while outside, multiple Vampires were already colliding.

Atlas had killed one Vampire brutally, but instead of running away, more and more Vampires attacked him in hordes.

Over twenty Vampires attacked Atlas at the same time. Their movement was so fast that it would've been impossible for any ordinary human to see them, but if there was someone faster than them, it was none other than Atlas, who wasn't thinking straight.

He had just tasted the Blood of a Vampire, and he craved for more. It was just as Lilith had said what it was going to be like. He was no more than a beast who only looked for blood as the real Atlas fell into a deep slumber inside the body, drowning in the sea of nothingness.

Atlas also moved. His figure moved so fast that even Carlisle was surprised at that speed. For some reason, that speed appeared to be even faster than theirs.

"Fascinating," Carlisle muttered in surprise.

Atlas stabbed his hands in the chest of one of the Vampires, grabbing his heart before crushing it.

Atlas pulled out his blood-covered hand and tasted the blood.

The Vampire dropped to the ground as his face turned dark.

From the back, another Vampire attacked Atlas, holding the sharpest of Swords that could even cut a stone.

The Vampire swung his sword to slice the head of Atlas, whose back was facing him. However, as soon as the Sword was about to touch Atlas, he disappeared.

"Where did he go?!" The Vampire exclaimed in surprise. Atlas had disappeared like he was a ghost.

Unknown to him, Atlas had appeared right behind the young Vampire as he held the forehead of the man before stabbing his teeth into the pale neck of the Vampire.

Holding the Vampire, Atlas jumped back, avoiding the other attacks as he kept feasting. No Vampire could even touch him!

It was only after draining the Vampire completely that Atlas tossed the body of the young Vampire aside before focusing on the others.

Atlas' eyes were emotionless. His face had no smile, only remaining expressionless. Only bloodlust could be seen in his eyes.

Only ten seconds had passed since the battle began, and he had already killed three Vampires, and he didn't appear to be stopping.

Standing slightly away from Atlas, Lilith only gazed at him with an unexplainable emotion flashing in her eyes. She didn't want this for the young man.

She still recalled that even though this guy wasn't Castiel, he was still so similar to him in many ways. He didn't want to lose himself in the process of becoming a Vampire. He wanted to protect himself without giving up his identity. Despite all his efforts, things only progressed as was destined.

It was a Vampire's destiny to drink blood. No matter how they tried to oppose it, they couldn't. The destiny couldn't be changed. Her master couldn't do it, let alone this young man.

It was as if Destiny was trying to show him that no matter how he escaped from its clutches last time because of inexplicable circumstances, he was still bound by it! The accident that brought him into this World against the destiny didn't mean he couldn't be wiped altogether.

The presence of Severis in the arena, the presence of the mysterious lady with Carlisle who had seen him in the forest, the appearance of that rabbit before Atlas that led to his fated meeting with the young lady, which made him hide his face and attempt to escape, it wasn't a coincidence. It was all a part of the correction of things that had gone wrong.

Atlas was caught in the clutches, on the verge of forever losing himself. According to his destiny, he was meant to die in the cells. He might have avoided that fate due to the accident, but that didn't mean he was allowed to exist.

The real Atlas was on the verge of death, forever losing his consciousness. His consciousness had already started disappearing. The only thing which was still keeping him safe to some extent was the strange mark on his forehead that was given to him by the mysterious person.

That mark was the only thing that protected some semblance of Atlas even in this condition, but even that couldn't protect him forever.

The mark had started eroding as well as more and more pressure was being applied on the Spirit of Atlas due to the bloodlust. The more that pressure came, the more Atlas was going to lose the protection, and that's what was happening.

The real Atlas felt like he was drowning in the deepest sea, unable to breathe. He couldn't even see any source of light. All he could feel was the terrifying coldness of the water that was soul-wrenching.

His eyes had started closing. He reached out his hand toward nothingness, attempting to escape this place. Unfortunately, there was no one to save him. There was nothing... He had lost.

He couldn't see any path of return from this place. He had many regrets on his face, but at this moment, he didn't even have the time to think about them.

His hand turned weak as his eyes closed finally…
