My Vampire System novel Chapter 525

Chapter 525 14th seat gone

It had been a good two minutes, and no words had left from Arthur’s mouth. He just continued to stare at the chamber in front of him.

A few minutes ago, Quinn had explained to Arthur everything that happened. Everything the Boneclaw had shown him. How really it was the one that had attacked Arthur’s men, on the behalf of its master at the time. The master being the first king Eno.

At this point, any words would have been better than no words, Quinn was wondering just what was about to happen at any second. Would he lash out, would he call Quinn a liar? There were so many possibilities.

He didn’t want to make Arthur an enemy, he had helped him out so much, if anything he deserved to know the truth to whatever was going on.

"I have to find him." Arthur finally spoke. "I need to hear it from his own mouth, and after that, I’ll ask him myself what he’s planning to do."

Arthur wasn’t angry, he wouldn’t allow an incident that happened so long ago to control him. It was hard to get angry about something that happened many years ago. More than anything, he was disappointed. He understood why Eno had decided to do what he did at the time and in the end, none of his men had died that day.

The problem was he had been tricked by a so-called friend. If he had gone so far for his goal, then Eno would do anything. Which meant there was a reason why he was still awake. Someone as craft and smart as Eno wouldn’t have been woken up by accident.

"You believe me then?" Quinn asked cautiously.

"Of course," Arthur replied. "What do you have to gain in all of this from lying? It would make no sense to try to turn something like this on me, and I can’t see how you would know what the first leader looked like otherwise.

"Quinn, I would ask you to leave this Eno business to me, but I feel like you have your own reasons for wanting to find him. If I find him before you then I promise I will bring him to you so you get your answers." Arthur said, and he started to walk out from the tomb heading for the stairs.

"Where are you going?" Quinn asked.

"It’s time for me to leave this place. It never was my home, it never felt that way for the years I was here and I still don’t feel welcome now." Saying that, he remembered there was one place where he did feel welcome at the moment, and that was the shelter he had arrived at and made together with Ruby. "I will go looking for Eno and find out what happened to my people. I have spent too much time here and I will take my leave. If the king asks about me in the meeting, tell him I have already left."

Quinn was about to shout to him, tell him to stop. He still had a lot of things he wanted to learn from Arthur. Didn’t he want to know of the outcome. He could at least stay until Quinn figured out what to do.

But then Arthur had already sunken in his shadow and disappeared. It was clear that he had made the decision to leave this place, and he meant it when he said he was leaving now.

It felt a little strange for Quinn, Arthur was always his back up during a tough situation in negotiation. It was because of him many of the vampires chose not to touch him. With him gone, that would all change.

Realizing this, Quinn knew one thing now. He didn’t want to stay here; he wanted to go back to earth. This wasn’t his place to be. The problem was for the first time he would be in negotiations without Vincent or Arthur.

While thinking of this, he felt a soft touch on his left shoulder, and then another on his right. Turning his head, he could see his two fellow knights placing their hand there.

"Don’t worry Quinn," Edward said.

"We have your back," Leo said as well.

Even in a place like this he still ahd people who cared for him, and he had met some great people in the vampire settlement.

’If only there was a way for all of us to go back together.’

Heading back to the castle, the only thing that had changed was he now knew his suspicions were more than likely true. The first king was out there alive and most probably on earth. Right now more than anything he wished he could talk to Vincent about it.

Tell him why he thought the first king had helped him create the system used in the book. He carried moving forward until he eventually sat in the large throne that faced the glass pane looking out at the city. It was the best thing about the castle, the view.

"Before the meeting, we could use this time to announce to everyone that you are the king here," Edward suggested. "It is the perfect time while morale is high. I hear the people outside have heard of our strength and good deeds."
