My Vampire System novel Chapter 483

Chapter 483 The King and Arthur

All of the vampires, as soon as they saw the first two men appear from the blood dome, they knew who would be following after them. The reason, because the king never travelled anywhere without his two royal guards.

The royal guards would be selected from the leaders of the past. Once the election for the next king was over. They were free to choose two guards from the current section of leaders.

One would usually choose the strongest of leaders of that generation and most loyal to protect the king. Their power was often above an average leader.

Although Vorden, Quinn and the others didn’t know what the vampire king looked like or who he was. They could tell as soon as he had stepped in. He had this sense of superiority around him. As if he was meant to be in that place.

The people all bowed down, and Logan and the others followed. Quinn, however, was still standing by Arthurs side, a little memorized by the person who had just walked in. He didn’t even notice all the leaders and everyone bowing down.

Looking at the king’s features. He wore a black and gold robe that covered his body. There was no armour, and the clothing looked relaxed and comfy as if he had just gotten out of bed. As for his facial features, he looked old. The wingless in his face were deep. Quinn didn’t know if the king had just chosen to keep this old appearance, or he was so old that he was no longer able to. He had long white hair that went down past his elbows. Although it stayed there shining and perfectly straight. Looking healthy then the rest of his body.

"You look old, young man," Arthur said.

These words came to a shock, and some of the leaders even wanted to cry out and shout. How could someone say that to the king? But it was clear. His words spoke as if he was familiar with the person. And the other thing was he was referring to the king as old.

"I thought I would never see you again during my lifetime." The king replied as he gave out a large cough or two. The one or two coughs soon turned into several. It was a strange sight to see. This powerful, strong person suddenly looked very weak at this moment.

The king then looked at the vampire leaders around him who were hurt and passed out on the floor. "Thank you for not killing the leaders." The king said.

With each word that passed by, the vampires no longer knew what to think or react. Arthur wasn’t just any punisher. It seemed as if the king was treating him as a person even above himself.

He then laid his eyes on Vadeen who laid there dead on the floor. He quickly closed his eyes, saying a few words of comfort. Seeing this, Muka thought that perhaps the king would be angry and another fight would soon start. If he did nothing, he feared the worse and had no choice but to chime in.

"My king, Vadeen had killed himself. It was not the punishers doing." Muka said, still with his head down and bowing for respect. He didn’t want to say more for fear he was stepping out of place.

"Worry not, I know that Arthur is not like that." The king replied. "Whatever he had done today, he probably felt like it was within his right to do so." He then turned and looked at Arthur, with a little glint in his eyes, showing sadness.

"If it was up to me at the time, we would have never chased out the punishers." The king said. "I’m..."

Holding up his hand, it was a signal for the king to stop.

"Not here and not now, Besides you didn’t chase us out, we chose to leave," Arthur replied.

The king looked at the scene before him once again, and Muka and the other leaders were waiting for his verdict. According to Bryce, he should have known everything that was going on. Unless Bryce had refused to tell him which was a possibility.

At that moment, Bryce was starting to wake up, his eyes had opened slightly, and the first thing he could see was the king. "My king..." Bryce said as he reached out his hand.

Looking at Bryce, the king simply shook his head as if he was disappointed.

"There were more ways than one to go about this Bryce, and now because of you, a leader is dead."

Moving his head upward, he could see Vadeen’s body lying there still. It looked like what he had said was true.
