My Vampire System novel Chapter 492

Chapter 492 The real pas

"I..will...show...you...the...past..." The deep dark voice said slowly and broken.

The Bone claw rarely communicated to Quinn, at least not in a way he could understand. There were times when he couldn’t understand what it was saying, and there were times when he could. Perhaps whatever it wanted to show Quinn, it felt like it was necessary.

As the black room started to change into a replica image of Arthur’s old castle, and the Bone claw saying those words, it seemed like Quinn’s thoughts were right. They were currently at the castle inside the meeting room looking at the round table.

It was exactly how Arthur had described it in his story. Thinking back, Quinn realised something, the tenth leader, or the previous king, also had the Bone claw. Was the one Quinn had and this one the same? Was that why it was showing him this image?

Around twenty or so men were present, some of them had fighting gear on while others just had robes. These were Arthur’s trusted men and not all of them were fighters.

Both the Bone claw and Quinn were hovering in the air above the table. It was as if they were in the room with them. Like he was watching a movie but was able to be inside and move about.

"Did you get the notice?" One of the men asked.

"Yes, Arthur said he would be returning, it had his seal, and he told us to wait in this room. How he would tell us the truth about everything." Another replied.

"What if the rumours are true. What if he really is working with demons. That’s how he was granted his power, and he has never changed in age." One asked.

"Does that matter? Whatever Arthur has done, he has always done it for the sake of the people. I’m sure if he did make some kind of deal, then the only person it would have an effect on is himself. I will follow him to the end. He saved our lives, all of us. If it wasn’t for him, perhaps all our families, our lives we had now, wouldn’t have even existed."

The other’s nodded in agreement, and at the same time, a sudden look of horror had appeared on all of their faces. The man who stood in front of them was unaware of what had just appeared behind him. Out from a black portal, teleporting in, a large thick bone-like creature had appeared with deathly claws.

A swipe was made, and blood was drawn. The knights and humans were no match for the Bone claw, as it continued to go around the room, appearing and disappearing seconds later, causing damage to each and every one.

"What is this?" Quinn thought. "Is that you, did you do that... is this when Arthur had returned to the castle. Why did you do this?" Quinn shouted.

The scene continued to play out, and eventually, all of the people in the room were hurt and damaged. They weren’t dead but left barely alive. When the bone claw was done, another man had entered the room.

Quinn had no reference of who this man was, but he picked each human up and activated the influence skill on them. As he did, he would describe the features of the attack to each one of them. Changing the memory in their mind.

Soon after, the bone claw in the memory had disappeared, and the scene had changed. When it changed, he could see two people walking through the forest. One of the people looked identical to Arthur. He was right, his appearance really did never change.

As for the other, it was quite a young-looking man, with short brown hair, handsome and had a gentle, trusting face. But that’s when Quinn saw it. He could see the two of them walking towards the castle, and for a brief second, his face had changed.

The room went to pitch black in an instant once again, and the current Bone claw was standing in front of Quinn.

"Did Eno order you to do that, but why? And why did you choose to show me!" Quinn shouted.

But soon after, the Bone claw started to turn into mist and Quinn knew he would no longer get any answers.

Opening his eyes, he had broken out from his mediation, and he was still in the dark room.

"Arthur, he doesn’t know the truth I..."

But before Quinn could think about what to do, the system had replied.

"I don’t think its a good idea to tell him." The system said. "I have a good idea of why the previous tenth leader did what he did. He knew Arthur was too kind-hearted. He would have never turned his people if he didn’t have to. It was the previous tenths way of making more punishers, and at the same time, it got rid of his greatest competitor for his goal.
