Salute To The General

Hepburn wore a strange expression, but in the end, she said, "I won't fall for your tricks. Goodbye."

After saying that, she turned around, ready to leave.

However,

Morgon asked indifferently, "Nathan is a vampire, after all. His secret will be exposed one day. When that time comes, there will be no place for him in the human world. As his close female friend, won't you consider paving a way out for him?" Upon hearing that, Hepburn stopped in his tracks.

She was well aware that Nathan was a vampire and understood that if Nathan's secret were to be revealed, humans would certainly not accept him. Perhaps, this mysterious person is right. I can lead the vampires first, managing them on behalf of Nathan. If Nathan's secret isn't exposed, I'll lead the vampires away from the hustle and bustle, living a quiet and secluded life. If Nathan's secret is revealed, there will be no place for him in the human world. I'll lead the vampires and welcome Nathan back to live among the vampires. Just as this mysterious person in front of me suggested, I should pave a way out for Nathan.

She slowly turned around, staring intently at the mysterious figure before her. "Why should I believe what you say? How can you prove that you have the ability to make me stronger?"

Morgon smiled and said, "Making you stronger is quite simple."

After he finished speaking, he pulled out something as if by magic. That item was a vivid crimson core of a vampire.

Upon seeing it, Hepburn was taken aback and blurted out, "Isn't this crimson core Herod's? This core seems to be stored in the Curia's Treasure Pavilion. How did it end up in your hands?"

With a mysterious smile, Morgon said, "You don't need to worry about that. You are a vampire. If you fuse with this core, which can be deemed perfect, your strength will definitely increase significantly. With your aptitude, I assure you that after merging with this core, your strength will far surpass that of an average King-Class vampire. Considering your close relationship with Nathan, who would dare disobey your orders when you return to the vampires?"

Hepburn stared in astonishment at the core in Morgon's hand. Her curiosity about the man before him grew. How is it that he can acquire even something hidden within the Curia? Could he be someone from the Curia? That's not right! The Curia and the vampires are irreconcilable. If this person before me were a member of the Curia, he would've killed me already instead of wasting time on idle chatter.

For a moment, Hepburn couldn't figure out the origins of the person before him.

With a strange expression, Hepburn asked, "Who exactly are you, and what are your intentions for helping me so much?"

Morgon chuckled. "I have no ulterior motives. I'm simply someone who enjoys seeing the rise of vampires. It's as simple as that. Now, it's your turn to decide. Do you want to merge with this core or not? Do you want to become stronger, to become the queen of vampires, and secure a way out for Nathan in the future?"

Hepburn weighed her options for a long time.

Ever since she became a vampire, she lost her status as Holy Maiden, and the faith within her heart also collapsed.

In addition, because of her unrequited love for Nathan, she had been living in a daze like a living corpse for the past few days.

She even struggled to find any meaning in staying alive.

Now, the mysterious person before her had given her a renewed sense of purpose in life, which was to make a sacrifice for Nathan by establishing a path of retreat for the latter.

She gritted her teeth, making a resolute decision. "All right. I choose to become stronger. I choose to

strive for improvement. I want to et

become the vampire queen. I want

to secure a way out for Mr. Cross and provide him with extra insurance."

Upon hearing that, a subtle glint of triumph flashed in Morgon's eyes. In a deep voice, he said, "All right. I will give you this core now for you to assimilate it!"Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Meanwhile, inside the house, Lyanna suddenly realized that Hepburn had been out for quite a while and hadn't returned yet. Nothing terrible has happened, right?

She couldn't help but feel anxious and immediately decided to go out and look for Hepburn.

But the moment she opened the door, she was suddenly hit by an overwhelmingly powerful aura.

The elite's aura was so overwhelming that it nearly suffocated her. She almost knelt down on the spot.

After much difficulty, Lyanna finally recognized the person before her. It was Hepburn, who had just returned from outside.

With a look of surprise on her face,

Lyanna stared at Hepburn and

slowly said, "Ms. Hepburn, where have you been? I was just about to look for you. Your aura... How come I feel like your strength has increased?"
