When Grett got off the carriage first, he turned his back to the carriage and gestured to Yue Luoluo and the others to stay in the carriage as soon as he realized something was wrong.

The sudden suppression of blood was like a huge weight directly applied to the soul.

This made the handsome prince with blond hair, red eyes, noble and elegant, stagger in embarrassment.

Fortunately, he reacted in time and forced himself to stay put so as not to fall to his knees.

"Grete, it seems that you have really grown wings. You even refused to kneel before the king!"

The voice that suddenly sounded in front was a very old voice.

Grete, who was often summoned to the royal court for questioning by the Council of Elders, was no stranger to this voice.

This is Dick, the head of the Elder Council, one of the ten elders.

During the years when the king was away, the Council of Elders was almost entirely controlled by the head of state.

It is said that he was the first vampire ancestor to be reincarnated, and he had existed long before the last civilization dominated by humans.

Exact age unknown.

But age does not represent strength. Even though Dick is the strongest among the elders, he is just so-so when compared with the princes.

The only thing that these ten elders can be proud of is that their starting point is higher than that of other vampires.

Because if you want to touch them, you have to consider whether you are strong enough to compete with the ancestor.

Wang was also transformed from the ancestor, but he seemed to be born with strength superior to that of the ten elders.

The one who is suppressing this kind of oppressive bloodline must not be Dick, but the king!

Realizing this, Grete's face looked very solemn.

Although their main target of this trip was the King of the Vampires, their original plan was just to test the waters first.

No one expected that this king who had not appeared for so many years would appear so easily.

Perhaps it was because his attacks on other princely territories were too big. Although they had been deliberately concealing the fact that other races were also involved, it was not surprising that the royal court had already noticed something because it was so far away.

Although his heart was already in turmoil, Gretel still tried his best to maintain a calm appearance.

While being wary of the possibility of a sudden attack from the other party, he knelt on one knee and performed the highest level of salute to the source of the blood suppression.

"Grete, meet the king..."

After the ceremony, Gret waited for a long time but received no response. Full of doubts, he could not help but carefully raised his eyes to look in front of him where he was kneeling.

It would have been fine if I hadn't looked at it, but when I did, I was shocked.

In addition to Elder Dick, the place where the king should have been standing was actually a human-shaped black fog with only a pair of blood-red pupils visible.

The scene was so abstract and terrifying that it gave Gretel a chill and his hair stood on end.

However, the existence of blood suppression made him clearly realize that the person in front of him was the king who transformed him.

But the last time I saw him, he was apparently normal.

The old man next to him saw Gret's shock and snorted with disdain.

Then he spoke on behalf of the black shadow, "The king asked you to get up."

The black shadow didn't even seem to have a physical body, so it was normal for Grett that it couldn't make any sound. What really puzzled him was how Dick helped the black shadow convey its meaning.

If it weren't for the fact that this pure blood suppression was difficult to fake, Gret would have suspected that Dick was just making it a mystery.

"Elder Dick, what is going on?"

"What's going on!"

"Wang he..."

"The king became like this for the eternity and prosperity of our blood clan! He made a huge sacrifice for our clan. The suspicion in your eyes is too rude, Grete!"

There was a special excitement in Dick's words, an excitement that Grete usually only saw in people with guilty consciences.

This made him even more suspicious, but his expression returned to normal.

"I am very sorry. It was indeed my fault. I did not know that the king had sacrificed so much for our clan. Great and selfless king, please forgive my ignorance and my slip of the tongue."

"Humph! Idiot! The king forgives you!"

The impatience that had been on Dick's face before had disappeared, replaced by arrogance.

It looks like a villain has succeeded.

This made Gret feel that there was something wrong with this old guy!

This was merely the entrance to the Supreme Council Chamber. It was unusual in itself that Dick, the head of the Council of Elders, was waiting here in person, not to mention that he had brought the king with him!

But at this moment he was not sure what Dick's conspiracy was, nor was he sure whether the black shadow was the king himself, so he did not dare to act rashly.

I could only ask tentatively.

"Elder Dick, I wonder why you and Wang are waiting here?!"

"Hmph! What do you think? The Council of Elders sent you eight urgent summonses to come to the Royal Court to stand trial, but you came here leisurely in a carriage! Grete, you really don't take the Royal Court and the King seriously anymore!"

This look of eagerness to convict himself was really ugly, but Gret was obviously no longer surprised by it.

He maintained his elegance and waited until the old vampire with a wrinkled face and gray curly hair finished his rant before he spoke calmly.

"Elder Dick, look at what you said. Teleportation magic cannot be used near the Royal Court. Isn't this also a rule set by the Council of Elders? You were the one who strongly proposed this rule in the first place! I am just following the decree you proposed and issued!"

"You...Grete, please don't be so evasive. What I'm going to talk about now is that we can't use teleportation magic!"

"Isn't it true that you complained that I was slow to respond to the call? Isn't it because I came by carriage that you kept you and the king waiting for a long time?"

When it comes to practicing Tai Chi with words, you're a thousand-year-old turtle, who doesn't know how to do it!

"Grete, you are changing the concept..."

"How can you say that, Elder Dick? Is this how you use the term 'substituting one' for another'?!"

Their conversation can only be described as irrelevant at best. The other party was talking about one thing, and he was talking about another.

"You!" Dick, who was transformed into a vampire at an old age, looked like he was about to faint from anger.

"Okay, okay, the other elders said that you have grown wings, but I didn't believe it. Now I have seen it. Grete, you really have turned your heart away from the royal court, right!?"
