Undying Warlord Chapter 283 Fun?

Chapter 283 Fun?

“Is it already over?” Victoria asked, crouching down. Her hands covered her cheeks, and she looked over to Silas, who was sleeping soundly.
She poked him to make sure that he was still alive. After a few pokes, Victoria looked back towards the battlefield, where she could finally see Dilan’s other teammates.
“That’s a bit disappointing. I thought he would be surrounded by women,” She mumbled as she looked at Ailee, sizing her up.
Victoria quickly lost interest in Ailee because she was happily talking with one of Dilan’s other teammates.
‘Well, whatever. That makes it easier for me,’ She thought with a bright smile on her face. Her cheeks turned red and she waited for Dilan and the others to approach her.
Yet, while Williams, Kuhn, and the rest quickly approached her because Silas was sleeping right next to her, Dilan was busy collecting Blood Essence and Essence crystals.
He knew that Victoria hadn’t attacked Silas and that the others would look after him, especially because they had set aside some healing potions for emergencies.
Dilan didn’t have something like that so he avoided the psychopathic female Vampire for a few more minutes.
After he collected all the Blood Essence and Essence crystals of the Vampires and humans he had killed, Dilan’s entire body began overflowing with Essence. He couldn’t remember a time when his body had had so much energy.
It felt a bit weird at first but Dilan was more than happy. He looked at the notification he had received in complete satisfaction.
[145 , and 5 Tier-1 Blood Essences have been absorbed→ +7.9 Strength, +25.3 Health, +2.1 Stamina, +6.9 Agility, +9.1 Mana]
[201 , and 62 Tier-1 Essences have been absorbed→ +0.5 Strength, +0.8 Health, +1.1 Stamina, +0.6 Agility, +0.9 Mana]
The potency of Bronze Blood Essence decreased rapidly after a certain amount had been consumed. Nonetheless, the increase in his stats was extraordinary simply because all Vampires had been at a much higher level than he had attained.
Dilan had not expected a lot from the bloodthirsty Ascenders, and the Vampire servants’ Essences. However, he received quite a few status points from them as well.
This only showed that the Essence crystals of humans were far stronger than one could ever imagine.
‘Well, even if they were strong, it’s entirely useless if they cannot beat me. What’s the use of somewhat high stats if they act and die like livestock?’ Dilan was quite disappointed with the bloodthirsty Ascenders’ strength.
They didn’t make things difficult for his group. In fact, Ailee, Williams, and Kuhn didn’t face a single opponent in close range. As for Oliver, he fought at a distance that was far enough not to get killed by anyone.
Only Silas was injured, several times at that. But this had been his fault because his fighting style had changed all of a sudden, which made him attack mindlessly.
“Looks like Silas is doing fine,” Dilan said the moment he appeared in front of the others. They looked at him in confusion, and their eyes flicked to Victoria and back to him to indirectly question him about what the hell was going on.
“Ah, you guys might not know her. That’s Victoria Helar…I think,” Dilan said while scratching his temple and trying to recall her name before he ignored his doubts about her name.
“She is a Vampire, and I didn’t feel like killing her,” He revealed in all honesty. The others didn’t feel like killing Victoria as well, they were just uncomfortable with the fact that Dilan had left Silas with some random Vampire woman, whom he had never met before.
This was a bit foolish, but the others could also somewhat understand why Dilan would act like this.
‘I don’t feel like attacking her, at all,’ Ailee quickly realized when her hands reached for the daggers that were attached to her belt.
Her instincts told her that Victoria Helar was a bit different from the other Vampires, and bloodthirsty Ascenders. If she had felt the mad urge to eradicate their entire existence, Ailee could only feel a slight bit of discomfort when looking into her crimson glowing eyes.
“Oh?!” Kuhn suddenly exclaimed. He had been looking at Victoria because she was otherworldly beautiful. Her appearance deserved to be praised but the reason for Kuhn to exclaim was that Victoria’s eye color had changed back to the marine blue color.
It was her original eye color; marine blue with red outlines around her pupils.
Victoria got up from her crouched position. She straightened her back, letting them all see the black dress that tightly clung to her curves, leaving little to imaginate.
Williams, Kuhn, and Oliver swallowed their saliva when they saw her graceful movements. She didn’t move much but every single action was captivating.
Only Dilan was able to prevent entering a bewitched state. Ailee looked at the woman in awe, not believing that someone as beautiful and elegant as Victoria could exist.
“Hello everyone, my name is Victoria Helar, I’m the Old Vampire Lord’s daughter. It’s an honor to meet the lot of you,” Victoria introduced herself, elegantly lifting her dress a bit as she bowed toward everyone.
The others were still in awe and Dilan was pretty sure that he saw how Kuhn broke into a sweat when Victoria finished her introduction.
“Yeah, nice to meet you,” Dilan replied in a bored voice before changing the topic, “Do you know where the leader of the Mihorl clan kept the four Sanctum keys?”
Dilan’s question made Victoria’s ears perk up. She didn’t think that Dilan knew about the sanctum of the Old Vampire lord.
‘Didn’t he attack the Blood Legion to take revenge on behalf of all the humans, who have been killed in the last few days?’ Victoria wondered, her expression changing slightly.
“I don’t know the Patriarch of the Mihorl clan well. Maybe he took them with him wherever he went or they’re somewhere in the base,” Victoria answered with a shrug. She could tell that Dilan was not affected by her charms. This increased her interest in him even more.
Dilan was very mysterious, and this made Victoria increasingly curious about him. His merciless and cruel fighting made her heart flutter as well.
“I can help you if you want. Vampires can sense the Sanctum keys when we focus on their frequency. But even if you have four Sanctum keys, you need a fifth one to enter the outermost layer of the Old Vampire Lord’s sanctum,” Victoria said, her eyes gleaming brightly as she looked into Dilan’s sky blue eyes.
“I know, Clerens has the fifth one,” Dilan calmly answered, not intending to hide anything.
“Clerens? So this bastard is still alive…interesting,” Victoria mumbled to herself, and it was incomprehensible for Ailee and the others. They were still in awe and could barely avert their focus from Victoria.
‘She knows Clerens? And it doesn’t seem like she likes him,’ Dilan figured based on the way Victoria spoke.
“So you’re teaming up with Clerens? Are you sure that you can trust him? Maybe he will just sacrifice your blood to enter the inner parts of the Sanctum,” Victoria spoke calmly, but her eyes clearly told Dilan that the situation was not to be taken lightly.
“I don’t trust him, but I want to enter the Old Vampire Lord’s sanctum as well. It might be advantageous, considering that Blood Essences of Vampires are pretty good resources to become stronger,” Dilan said in a rather nonchalant manner.
“So…you just want to kill us to become stronger?” Victoria asked, not quite understanding why Dilan, a human, would want to enter the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord.
“Well, it’s more like I believe it will be fun inside the Sanctum,” Dilan replied, smiling brightly at Victoria.
‘Fun?… It will definitely be anything but fun…’
