Chapter 353 Fight together
“So the reason for you to attack them was your pack mentality? You would have killed all of your people, just to attempt taking revenge for the death of one of your dead youngsters?” Dilan had already heard that Werewolves were rigid with their pack mentality, but he thought that Victoria had exaggerated a bit because Vampires and Werewolves weren’t really on friendly terms with each other.
“You do realize that this was suicidal and that you could have just waited for a better timing…for example when the Vampire clans were just about to attack my group, to fall into their back?” He asked, looking stupefied at the Alpha, whose fangs and claws were growing once again.
All the Werewolves had turned back from their partial bestial transformation to their human form. However, upon hearing Dilan’s words, all of them seemed to be agitated, and eager to start fighting once again.
“I’m not afraid to fight, you know…” Dilan remarked on seeing their reaction, releasing his suppressed bloodlust. The pressure caused most Tier-1 Werewolves to stagger backward.
They felt incapable of releasing their wolf from within them because it was afraid to be torn apart into shreds by humans.
Even the Alpha’s wolf respected the strength of the human in front of him, which was why the Alpha had to choose his words carefully.
“We thought that more Vampire Clans would gather up before attacking your group. They didn’t know much about your group, and neither do we.
It was not unlikely that the situation would have escalated even more…though I have to agree that it was a bit suicidal. We didn’t expect to find so many Vampires with Ancient Vampire Powers, otherwise, I would have been able to wreak as much havoc as you did!” The Alpha excused himself and Dilan just nodded his head.
The Werewolves could do whatever they wanted, and if the Alpha’s pack was fine with the suicidal attack, that simply meant they were 100% loyal to him. This was quite interesting and something Dilan would wish to see his Ascenders replicate.
It was not as if they were disloyal to him but Dilan could tell that his Ascenders were not ready to sacrifice their life by fighting a fight that was impossible to win.
In this regard, the Werewolves were much better, especially their morale which seemed to be indestructible along with their unwavering loyalty to their Alpha.
Despite being pushed back, the Werewolf pack was ready to protect their Alpha from all harm, including the possibility of fighting Dilan just after they had utterly exhausted themselves fighting thousands of Vampires.
“In that case, you did what you presumed to be the best…I guess,” Dilan replied, not trying to provoke the Alpha a lot.
He didn’t feel the necessity to fight against the Werewolf pack just after all of them had exhausted themselves. If they wanted to fight him, they should work hard, become stronger and challenge him.
Dilan would gladly accept fighting them!
“Whatever, I will take your leave, if there is nothing else to take care of,” Dilan said while accessing his storage ring.
However, the Alpha stepped forward, lightly lifting his hand to stop Dilan from leaving them abruptly.
“We want to assist you and fight the other Vampire Clans that will come for you!” The Alpha suddenly stated, taking Dilan by surprise.
He knew that Dilan would attack more Vampire Clans in the near future. Dilan was in possession of the five Sanctum keys, which was a great opportunity for the Werewolves to end the Era of the Vampires in the Shikan plains.
“You want to come with me and fight the Vampire Clans?” Dilan asked in astonishment. He looked at the Alpha, who nodded his head.
“That’s not necessary…” Dilan added, knowing that he wouldn’t be able to control the Werewolves. They might cause more harm than good, especially with Victoria around.
It was not safe to bring them to Shiron, if he wanted to prevent a bloodbath, or an uncontrollable pack of Werewolves, which he didn’t even know, straight in the center of his home.
“We, the Silverlight pack, owe you a favor!! You are the only reason why we’re still alive!” The Alpha declared with an imposing voice.
It almost looked like the Alpha could never allow Dilan to leave without letting him repay the favor, and that was quite troublesome.
Nonetheless, Dilan was not ready to bring the Werewolf pack to Shiron. There had to be another way for the Alpha and his pack to help him, one that didn’t involve risking his people to a significant threat.
‘They probably want to annihilate the Vampires of the Shikan plains. If that’s the case, I might as well help them out. Werewolves seem to be less troublesome than Vampires, either way. If they’re the only night race left on the Shikan plains, I would feel a bit better as well…’ Dilan thought, realizing that it might be quite useful to exploit the Werewolves a bit more.
It was not necessary to kill all the Vampires, but only those, who were truly evil. Victoria knew all the Vampire Clans in the Shikan plains. Thus, she could simply point them out if they were to encounter them.
“Then…how about we attack the Sanctum of the Vampire Lord, with your people and mine?” Dilan asked as he shared an idea he had thought of before.
Instead of avoiding confronting the issue, they could move the battlefield straight to the center of the Shikan plains.
With the death of close to 6000 Vampires, it would probably take a while before another batch of Vampire Clans would reach Shiron.
“I would travel back, return with my people, and you would have to find one or two more packs. By then, we could annihilate the Vampires waiting at the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord,” He said, liking the idea the more he thought about it.
With the help of the Werewolves, his Ascenders wouldn’t have to face so much pressure of killing the Vampires on their own. Simultaneously, it would help them to get more accustomed to fighting with their life on the line, and having the werewolves around would also make them train harder.
They could witness how powerful Werewolves were when they gave their utmost to fight. This would be quite interesting, especially with Victoria’s help as she could point out which Vampire clans should be spared and which should not.
The Alpha of the Silverlight pack began to grin widely. He was beginning to grow increasingly fond of the young man in front of him. Dilan seemed like a battle maniac, but he was not a brainless killer.
He had no idea how scheming Dilan might be, or what his plan might be, but it looked like he wanted to remove all threats surrounding himself and his people.
To do so, he would even resort to asking strangers for help, without knowing whether they were actually on his side or not.
This seemed quite foolish in the Alpha’s opinion. He and many other packs had heard the Region announcement of the system as well.
They knew that the Sanctum of the Blood Monarch was located in the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord. The Instance Dungeon may not only be useful for Vampires, and that was something Dilan ought to know.
However, from the looks of it, the young human was oblivious to this fact, which was something the Alpha of the Silverlight pack wanted to make use of.
While Dilan wanted to exploit the Werewolves’ weird mentality, the Alpha was not a bit different. In the new Era that began with the Primordial Ascension, many things had changed.
Now, killing was much more useful than ever before, and the wild instincts of the wolves that were awakened within the Vampires were wreaking havoc within them, telling the Werewolves to keep killing and to become stronger whenever it was possible.
And Dilan seemed to be the opportunity they had been waiting for. But that was also something he was fully aware of.
After all, he had analyzed the Werewolves during their fight. He could gauge their mindset, which was what he exploited to his benefit as well!
