Mysterious and noble, the woman stood up slowly, her demeanor exuding an extraordinary aura. Her gaze first fixed on Agamemnon, then turned to the nearby Sheriff William. She bowed deeply to them and introduced herself, saying, "I am Eilleana, the third-generation descendant of the True Ancestors."
This news shocked Agamemnon. If Eilleana was indeed a third-generation descendant, her power would be extremely astonishing, possibly approaching 70% to 80% of the strength of the True Ancestor vampires. Agamemnon tensed his body, well aware that the woman before him possessed incredible abilities, but Eilleana's current actions did not show any hostility.
Agamemnon cautiously posed his question: "May I ask why you were awakened? The nourishment provided by Blood Demon should not have been enough to awaken you. Also, why allow Blood Demon to awaken you?"
Eilleana looked slightly puzzled and did not immediately answer Agamemnon's question. Instead, she slowly walked towards Sheriff William. Her steps were light and graceful, as if she were an elf strolling through the night. Her gaze seemed to pay little attention to Agamemnon's inquiry, showing more interest in William and the Bolt in his arms.
Sheriff William held Bolt tightly, his eyes showing vigilance but also curiosity towards Eilleana. This mysterious woman brought more enigma and unknown to this night. In this tense and dangerous moment, everyone awaited Eilleana's response, hoping to find some clues in her words to unravel this mystery.
As Eilleana approached, Sheriff William's tension noticeably increased. His gaze shifted back and forth between Eilleana and Agamemnon, hoping to get some rescue hints from Agamemnon. However, even Agamemnon seemed puzzled by Eilleana's behavior, unclear about her true intentions.
Eilleana's every step carries a strange and mysterious aura. As she gets closer, William can no longer bear the oppressive feeling. He suddenly raises his revolver, his gaze firm and alert, and says to Eilleana, "I'm sorry! I... I really can't let you get any closer. This child has lost his parents because of you, I can't let you continue to harm him!"
William's words are filled with determination and a protective instinct. His arm trembles slightly, but his will is unwavering. He knows he must protect this innocent young life, even if it means facing a powerful high-ranking vampire.
Eilleana heard these words, and a flash of anger crossed her face, but quickly turned into deep sadness. Her eyes were filled with complex emotions, as if William's words had touched a deep part of her heart. She stopped in her tracks, looking at William and Bolt in his arms, seemingly struggling within herself.
At that moment, the entire forest seemed to fall into a silence and stillness. Everything illuminated by the moonlight was enveloped by this sudden confrontation. Everyone's breath became heavy, waiting for Eilleana's next move and her response to William's words.
Eilleana stood quietly on the moonlit clearing, her face pale and her eyes filled with deep sorrow and regret. Her gaze slowly swept over the child in Sheriff William's arms, a hint of indescribable emotion flashing in her eyes, as if stirring ripples in her heart. Her lips moved lightly, murmuring softly to herself, "Another innocent life..." Her voice revealed profound grief and unwillingness, as if expressing the pain that could not be erased from her heart.
Suddenly, as if drawn by some force, she swiftly moved to Agamemnon's side. Her movements were graceful and swift, like a willow catkin swaying gently in the wind. This finally eased William's tension. With Eilleana's movement, the surrounding cold atmosphere seemed to lighten slightly, and the oppressive feeling in the air also diminished.
Eilleana turned to Agamemnon, preparing to answer the question he had just asked. She paused for a moment, as if collecting her thoughts, and then slowly began to speak: "Regarding your question, Half Blood..." Her voice was hesitant at first, but quickly became firm: "I'm sorry, all of this was caused by my final subordinate - the Blood Demon. It defied my last command and attempted to awaken me on its own. Its actions led to these tragedies."
Eilleana's words were filled with regret, seemingly expressing deep disappointment and heartache over the Blood Demon's actions. Her eyes revealed a complex mix of emotions, showing both compassion for her subordinate and deep self-blame for the tragedies caused.
Agamemnon and William exchanged a meaningful glance as they listened to these words. They both realized that the Eilleana before them was not only a powerful vampire, but also a tortured soul deeply embroiled in her own kind's conflicts and contradictions.
There was a hint of deep reminiscence and resignation in Eilleana's voice as she continued slowly: "One hundred years ago, when I chose to enter into slumber, I gave clear orders to that Blood Demon—not to harm humans, only to occasionally feed on wild beasts, and absolutely not to attempt to awaken me. The Half Blood of that era caused great destruction to our kind, nearly wiping out most of the monsters. Humans created something even more terrifying than us monsters, and I was forced to flee, choosing to slumber to escape the disaster."
In her eyes flashed a hint of pain, as if recalling the difficult years of the past. She sighed softly, "To this day, how many of our kind are still alive? We have been forced to hide, forced into hibernation, and some of our own kind have even chosen betrayal for survival. We were once powerful and respected, but now, we can only linger in this dark corner."
Eilleana's words are filled with memories of the past and sorrow for the present situation. She appears not only as a high-ranking vampire, but also as an elder burdened with a heavy history, feeling endless sadness and helplessness about the fate of her kind.
Agamemnon and William listened to her words, although they were wary of vampires, they couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for Eilleana's situation.
