After escaping the clutches of the Seven Kingsguards, Marie broke off into a sprint... well more like a winged sprint.. Passing through a winding long passageway, she suddenly came across Lady Beelar who was just about to enter a chamber at her left. "You!!" Lady Beelar hooted icily as soon as she saw Marie. "Bitch!" Marie hissed as she arrived before the other party, sending a palm strike towards her ugly insect face. "Hmpfh. Nobody is going to protect your now" Lady Beelar's wings flapped as she easily dodged Marie's palm strike, appearing behind her as a sharp stinger pierced towards the back of Marie's neck. "Hmpfh" Marie merely sneered as the earlier palm strike changed into an eagle claw strike. Twisting her waist like an agile serpent, Marie easily switched from her earlier trajectory, grabbing one of the wings of Lady Beelar as she gave it a powerful pull. "How dare you touch my pretty wings?!!" To Marie's surprise, her tug wasn't able to rip out the wings of the othe

"We received your signal.. where are the traitors?" a beam shot out from within the city, appearing at the entrance city gates in the blink of an eye. This beam was actually an object... A silver colored sword and standing on its flat surface was a Kingsguard, with his hands behind his waist. If he didn't have a bulky build and a large tail swinging behind him, he would've passed off as a dignified scholar. "Lord Commander?" the Kingsguard whose name was Syrus appeared stunned when he saw the other party. "When I sent out the signal, I never expected the Commander of the Kingsguard would personally make an appearance " Syrus probed. "The whole castle is in a mess.. apparently the human woman we captured managed to flee from her chambers. The Kingsguard over there are doing their best to capture her before she escapes the castle completely. In his infinite wisdom, the Crown Prince instructed that I personally deal with this problems myself. So where is the traitor Eragon and his

Monarch Departure was a skill that allowed Aiden to blend into that shadows. In this state, he could go completely invisible without revealing even the slightest energy fluctuating. However for normal Magis, this didn't make them completely go invisible considering the fact that utilizing this Hex consumed their beta force, and no matter how they tried, they couldn't perfectly mask the fluctuations of their beta force energy signature. As long as someone or something had a trace of beta force, weapon force or rune force, they possessed a distinct energy signature. However Aiden was an oddity. He could neither weild beta force, weapon force or rune force. In his base form he was merely an artificially made Vampire thanks to the system. On a normal basis he barely emitted the slightest energy signature and now coupled with a skill like Monarch Departure, he was like he didn't even exist in the plane of existence! However unlike popular belief, the Shadow Magis could cast their Hex

"This must be it" from within the shadows, Aiden silently observed a particular exquisitely carved chambers door. Flanked at both sides were two Azure Rangers who seemed to be on guard duty. According to the info he forced out from the Castle Servant from earlier, this was the chambers of General Jazz Queen; the Maester. "Who goes there?" one of the Azure Rangers spoke in the tongue of the Winged Panda Man race as he seemed to have heard something. Ting! The sound of an object dropping on the ground rang out as a crimson colored ball slowly rolled towards them. "What is that?" the Azure Ranger at the left sought the advice of his colleague as they both watched the crimson colored ball slowly rolled towards them. The ball appeared harmless, considering it was merely the size of a tennis ball. "A servant must've mistakenly dropped it. Sloughtful lot" the Azure Ranger at the left stepped forward as he attempted to pick up the tennis ball when suddenly.. Splurt! The tennis ball

When Aiden woke up, the first thing he felt was.. The itch.. followed by the burn.. And then the pain! —[Your Bloodlust Rises!]—[57/100] Sure enough, this system notification was the first thing he saw. Groaning dryly, Aiden noticed he was laying on a bed in an unfamiliar room. He tried rising up, only to discover that apart from the looming hunger pang, every fibre in his body hurt like hell! It was like a huge truck had just run right through a cricket.. and he was that cricket. "What the hell happened!" "Argh!" a searing headache hit Aiden when he tried going down the memory lane. "Am.. Am I sick?" Aiden was wrought with confusion when he noticed his vision slowly grow fuzzy. —[Your Bloodlust Rises!]—[87/100] Aiden was taken aback by the sudden sharp increase. He swiftly consumed a hundred blood drachmas, causing his stock to reduce all the way to three hundred. However even after he did this, it took about twenty minutes for his fuzzy vision to go back to normal, sam
