Genuflecting in front of one of the Vampire Lords, the subordinate accounted everything regarding the details, such as the purpose of requesting an audience, of the report that was initially delivered to him.
"I see. It's a group of humans wanting to ruin their own kind. Foolish humans. We, the vampires, only spied on them before since it's not necessary to ddle with their lives because they're prone to destroy themselves."
One of the Vampire Lords, the one whom Rakshana, the Dark Elf, had conversed with previously spoke in a calm manner, pondering the words that ca out of his subordinate's fanged mouth.
"My Lord, what shall I say to them?"
In a polite manner, the Vampire Lord's subordinate asked.
"I'm sure you've heard already from the other clans about the alliance ford between the Elves, Dwarves, and Humans. I have no idea what the sly queen of Elves is planning or even if the other races are aware of her sches no matter how minor they might be, but it's not a bad suggestion from the humans wanting to request an audience… So, accept it and let them co here."
The Vampire Lord, after so contemplation, considered the offer of the strange humans living outside the Orion Continent, especially since it involved the mysterious dark curtain separating the Eastern World from the fog of the Western World.
"My Lord… it may be presumptuous of to ask, but how can so humans live outside their territory and discover our concealed existence?"
Most vampires, if not all, didn't know the lifestyle of humans, that's why the Vampire Lord's subordinate's query was only rational. In other words, the vampires, even though they were divided into several clans, were only living in one territory, divided into sub-territories, where the Vampire Lords were, and whoever wandered, whether a commoner or a noble, outside the vampire's designated territory without the permission of a Vampire Lord would be excommunicated.
Being excommunicated ant that the vampire would be sent to another territory that barely or didn't know their existence and learned the ways of living there and discover if there was a threat hiding that could threaten the vampires.
It's the case with Ruina, the one who Russell killed, together with Reinhardt von Apollon and Arthur Wolfson. Apart from Runia, there was also Tanya Drusilla, who was killed by Artorious Hall the mont the latter saw the forr with his very eyes that could pierce the nature of reality.
Although Tanya was a daughter of a noble vampire, they fell and lost their title because of either so incident or dispute against other vampire families, causing her to be sent outside to blend within humans with the hope of getting back by gathering valuable information that could be considered a threat against the clans.
Similar to the nature of humans, the vampires weren't exactly the kind of race that was not abusing their power if they possessed it.
A mont later, the Vampire Lord responded to the curiosity of his subordinate.
"Because humans have more free will than we do. They might be divided and prone to the destruction caused by themselves, however, they're adaptive to the change happening around them.
"If there's an opportunity to beco strong, so humans would not hesitate to take it even if it cost killing their own kind.
"Lancer, as vampires, we follow the traditions and wisdom bestowed by our sole ancestor, and defying it would only an one thing — excommunicate, which ans death in our kind.
"Those humans that want an audience with just have more rein to do whatever they desire."
The Vampire Lord addressed his subordinate nad Lancer, stressing the free will that humanity possessed, which was more evident compared to the Vampire Race.
The subordinate vampire, Lancer, fell silent at the words of his Lord, his thoughts were unknown.
After so ti, Lancer then bade farewell to commit to the order he was given.

The El-Vul-Or Tournant went on without any kind of exterior disturbance apart from the cheering and inward mockery.
The subsequent battles after the first one between Aisha Whispercrest and Aina Llanor were fiercer as if the participants were out for blood.
The second match, between Acelyn von Ephilon from the Sky Academy, and Aerin Llanor, who turned out to be Aina Llanor's older sister, ended quickly with a win for the Elves.
The third match, however, was considered dull. The Student Council President, who was already dead and only moving due to Alie's Authority: Wheel of the Dark, was awkward in the arena due to poor decision-making in attacking and defending.
But here's the peculiar phenonon that the audience was curious about — Arthur Wolfson, no matter how much he's getting beat up, wasn't surrendering or losing consciousness.
But in the end, with an unrelenting smile painted on his lips, under Alie's control, he just surrendered, which infuriated his opponent and almost broke the rules by killing him.
Freya wasn't delighted by Alie's action, but the latter just shrugged her off as she responded with a cheeky grin through telepathy.
