Chapter 337 - Nightmare

In the capital of the great vampire\'s empire, a scenario never seen before was unfolding and making its way into the annals of history. The once majestic and massive city of luxury and elegance was now a battlefield.

Smaller houses were reduced and ruined to rubbles and many castles were on fire. The once proud city was now looking like it was about to fall into total ruins.

The streets that were once filled with nothing else but lovely things and luxuries were decorated with blood, flames, and weapons. Dead bodies decorating the streets now instead of laughter, sparkling lights, and gallivanting bodies. Screams and the ominous sound of the battle were still reverberating around in the air. Children being led by vampire women were seen escaping from the city. And there were no signs of the war ending any time soon.

That day the elite men reached the capital, what welcomed them was a huge shock. The prince had already made it to the capital city. And the fierce battle had already started..

The elite men immediately went to aid the prince\'s army. And with the elite men\'s leadership, taking up the roles of the generals as soon as they arrived, they started to push the imperial army back quite quickly and efficiently while their prince was fighting against Caius and… Lorcan.

One glance at the battle between the prince and those two fake royals and they could already tell that something strange was going on over there. Lorcan and Caius did not seem to be themselves. It was strange to see how powerful they have grown, and it was obvious that they were not fighting like vampires at all. In fact, they were fighting just like their prince, using magic… dark magic.

But the elite men did not even have the luxury to know what was going on and they could not find the opportunity to even go near their prince as the fierce battle was impossibly too dangerous. They could only feel a little at ease since their prince was still obviously more powerful. He was slowly pushing forward, despite the numbers of what seemed like possessed vampires like Lorcan and Caius and the other half-human warriors were getting in his way. He was unstoppable and they were confident that the prince would soon reach the imperial palace where Thundrann must be hiding out at.

The men could only stay on faithfully at their posts and focus their efforts and attention on destroying the imperial army as they knew it was unwise for them to go to the prince\'s aid when his enemies were wielding dark magic. Zolan had wanted so badly to go and find out what was actually going on. How on earth were these vampires even using dark magic? Where the hell did they get these powers? How was it that there were such numbers among them who seemed to be possessed and were even displaying traits that were very strong? Despite Samuel\'s disapproval, Zolan insisted to secretly sneak in to investigate further. His excuse was that they needed to have more intel on what was going on in the enemy camp in order to prepare a better counter measure to their next attacks. He took Elias with him as they disguised themselves to mingle and slip within the imperial army.

It was last night when the prince\'s army led by the elite men finally got the upper hand and won the battle. But by the time they entered the city and was rushing over to the imperial palace where the prince was, something terribly unexpected had already happened.

The beasts from the Middle Lands suddenly came stampeding behind them as if there were someone who had induced them into going into a rampage and to head their way. Wild beasts, orcs, dark wolves, and even the savage orcs attacked them from behind. And it was then that everything fell into utter chaos.

The arrival of the beasts shocked not only Prince Gav\'s army but even the imperial armies and all the citizens who were still in the city and had yet to flee. The vampires did not know what was going on anymore and so was the case for the elite men as well. They were taken by surprise and confused at the sudden turn of events.

This was such an unexpected happening that all vampires – friend or foe – found themselves fighting back-to-back and shoulder to shoulder for their lives against these wild and savage beasts that poured out from the Middle Lands.

It was as if they all suddenly found themselves inside a nightmare. The vampires were nowhere near ready to fight beasts such as these.

As the beasts came in rampaging, tearing everyone who got in their way into pieces, eating them or throwing them aside as they advanced into the city, Samuel had told the citizens especially the children to escape from the city instead. They were reminded to not try and fight back but turn around and just run for their lives.

The elites knew that the vampires can never stand against the numbers of beasts coming at them all at once – not with the wild beasts of the Middle Lands. At this rate, these beasts will annihilate everyone, especially the common citizens who were the weakest of all.

Thankfully, due to fear, the vampires listened to Samuel. Women started to help their children escape while the others – especially the men – fought to their deaths to give their family that little extra time to escape to safety.

And now that the sun had finally risen, everyone was on the verge of collapse. There were just too many beasts for them to contend with. They had found themselves having to play hide and seek with the beasts just to gain that extra time to plan how to eliminate one more or to catch a few minutes of breathing time.

The soldiers were scattered everywhere – both parties were not exempted from this fate. Even the elite men themselves could not keep track and trace the location of where their comrades were now as they too had to lend a hand in helping the other vampires – the citizens – escape than wasting their energy fighting the beasts to death.
