Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 255: Talking with Thalia

The real Luciel, whom Gluttony thought was fully consud, suddenly appeared, trying to fight back.

Knowing she didn't have much ti left in this place, she decided to escape.

Thalia saw everything that happened but didn't intercept. Even though she could have fought to pressure Gluttony more, she knew she couldn't kill it.

Instead, the more pressure Gluttony felt, the more dangerous she would beco.

It didn't take long for Alex and MingYue to reach where Elvira was. Despite being safe now, she didn't have any energy to try to move.

She knew she should have tried to look for her father and brother, but she just didn't feel any motivation.

She was still in disbelief at how she could stay alive.

Alex clenched his hand tightly as he looked at Elvira. He knew it as clear as day: Zargath was no more. He was killed.

"Dammit!" Alex scread in frustration.

MingYue sighed and put her hand on Alex's shoulder. "Alex..."

"I know, it's not the ti to mourn. Let's regroup for now," Alex said.

MingYue nodded and then pointed at the dazed Elvira. "What about her, then?"

Alex thought it would be better to bring her with them, but after so more thought, he decided to let her choose. With the current situation, they didn't have ti to babysit soone.

He could try to capture her, but what then? There was no use to it.

Alex was now trying his best to think only rationally, putting his morality and heart aside. Otherwise, he knew he would probably be stressed out from all the guilt.

Alex walked closer to Elvira, took out a bottle of spiced water, and poured it on the woman.

The water quickly released its effect as it got absorbed through the skin, making her mind feel refreshed.

Looking at Alex, Elvira said, "Just who are you!? I am sure you are not from here now. And what happened? Please tell ."

"If you want to find out, follow us. We are going to where the survivors are gathered."

Alex then turned his back without waiting for her response.

Elvira hesitated for a mont but then decided to follow them.

After they had walked a few steps, Alex and MingYue turned alert. In front of them stood Thalia with a smile on her face.

"My master is really soone I cannot fathom. He even chose two people as his heirs." She then put her hand over her chest and gave a small bow, surprising Alex and MingYue.

"Let introduce myself once more. My na is Thalia Von Bloodthorn, and I am from the Bloodthorn clan. I welco you to my place, Alucard's heirs."

Alex and MingYue exchanged gazes for a mont, then looked back at Thalia.

"I am Alex, and she is MingYue. Based on what you do now, are you not our enemy?"

"Enemies? Oh, I am far from it, Heir. But before we talk further..." Thalia then turned her gaze to Elvira, raised her finger, and her crimson eyes glowed. "We need to make sure no outsider hears it."

After saying this, Elvira's body dropped to the ground.

"What did you do to her?" Alex asked. He didn't feel wary since he could feel Elvira was still alive.

"I just put her to sleep. She has no business hearing what I want to say." She then turned her gaze to MingYue.

"And who is your na, Lady Heiress?"

"I am MingYue," she replied with a frown on her face.

"Let's move to a different place first. This place is not suitable for a long talk."

"No need," Alex replied. He then gestured his hand, taking out a table and chair.

"Let be clear, we still don't trust you. Despite you being stronger than us, it doesn't an we will just follow your whim."

Thalia let out a chuckle. "Alright, as you wish, Sir Alex."

As they took a seat, MingYue was the first to ask a question. "Why?"

The question was just one word, but Thalia understood what they wanted to know.

"I will not mince words. What you saw inside Luciel's mind is not wrong. I do plan to take over her body, as she is the most suitable to hold the Aspect of Gluttony."

Alex and MingYue didn't respond; they looked at Thalia, waiting for her to continue.

"It's good for both of you to keep your guard up. After all, not all vampires will still be loyal to Master Alucard. Let continue, then.

The Aspect of Gluttony is part of the deadly sins. They are weapons created specifically to destroy our race," Thalia said with a sigh, her eyes reflecting deep sadness as she rembered what happened in the war back then.

"Long story short, you should be able to guess what happened in the war.

When I escaped, I was ambushed by Gluttony. I barely escaped with my life, but part of it attached itself to my soul."

"So you sohow cut part of yourself that got infected, then put it on Luciel with the goal to kill her afterward?" Alex asked.

"It's not that simple, but yes, it's as you said. But it doesn't matter now. The creature is free and starting to run amok.

I am guessing we have a week at most before it grows strong enough to escape this place."

"Do you have a way to kill it?" MingYue asked.

Both she and Alex understood they needed to make sure Gluttony didn't escape from this place. If it sohow returned, every one of their potential enemies would co out to hunt them down.

After knowing the outer gate, they were prepared for the worst. Their enemy had many ans beyond their imagination.

Having a progenitor shalessly co and kill them in one move was not out of the possibility.

"At first, I was hopeless. But seeing both of you fight gave an idea to kill it or, at the very least, seal it."

Hearing this, Alex's vein throbbed. Part of the emotion that he pushed down started leaking out.

"You an you were there, but you didn't have the decency to help us?"
