My Vampire System novel Chapter 532

Chapter 532 The new Tenth knigh

The news had spread to the tenth’s people that there was an announcement to be made today, so they had gathered in the area in front of the castle. It was stationed quite a place away, and the people naturally knew to not stand too close to the front doors.

A small platform had been made outside that was raised a few feet from the ground. This was to make it feel a lot more personal. One could make a speech from the castle but it was too far and would feel disconnected from the people. Edward felt like this was their chance to bring the family closer together.

"Do you know why we were all called here today? It’s been a long time since anything like this has happened?"

"I’m not sure, maybe it has something to do with the castle lighting up?"

"You think what they said about the tenth family having a new leader is true. I’ve been seeing people I’ve never seen before come and go, and I think I even saw a royal knight come here."

The crowd was speculating what exact reason they had been called here for. It had been a long time since something like this had happened. Even those who were only in the tenth family temporarily were interested in what was about to happen.

Finally, the castle doors opened, and three figures had walked out to the front. One of them everyone had recognized, for he was the one who had looked after them this entire time, Knight Edward. The other one was a baldheaded swordsman who wore very light clothing, but underneath his shirt, a demon-faced chest piece could be seen, and finally. There was another person, but he wore a hood and his face was partly covered by a black cloth.

The hooded man was Quinn. He wanted to be here, by Leo’s side when this happened since he had put this responsibility on him, but many people had seen him safe Fex that day, he just didn’t want others to make speculations if they saw him coming out of the castle with the two other vampire knights.

On the platform, Leo took the middle position, and the other two stood by his side. The crowd waited and Edward started his announcement.

’I have called you all today for there has been a big change in the tenth family." Edward said. "As you may have heard. The tenth family was tasked with taking out the human intruders. Not just any human intruders, but some of the strongest to invade this settlement."

The word humans didn’t really sound frightening to vampires, so Edward had to add a little spice to things in his descriptions.

"A very small team including myself took on the two hundred or so intruders on our own and we didn’t allow for a single causality."

"Whoah, that’s pretty impressive." Someone mumbled.

’I had heard things, but I thought they were exaggerated."

In the crowd, both Amy and Xander stood there as well. They had made it but knew more than the others thanks to Layla and Cia, and they knew what was coming next.

"All of this was thanks to this man by my side," Edward said pointing at Leo. "He coordinated the attack on the humans and took down the leader."

Edward had stopped speaking there and paused, he was waiting for some type of applause, but there was no such thing. As he thought, it might be a bit harder to convince these people overnight.

"He is the new tenth vampire knight and will be taking charge of the head position while our leader is still vacant. I will continue to do the day-to-day duties but this man will hold the same position as me, no, a position slightly above myself." Edward said, nodding his head. _{frёewebηovel.cѳm}

The crowd now was full of conversation, but they weren’t smiles and such, instead, it seemed more like negativity.

"He’s a vampire knight? without a leader who decided such a thing."

"Not only that, who is that vampire. I’ve never seen him in my life. How are we meant to suddenly see him as one of our knights? "

"What about us, shouldn’t there be some sort of trial, to see if one of the nobles is worthy? Why did this unknown get a chance to skip ahead of everyone?"

With the increasing amount of complaints, the crowd was getting restless and Edward could see this.

"I assure you, this man is even stronger than myself," Edward explained. "Things will mostly remain the same, but the tenth now has a newfound power. If there is trouble brewing, then he will be the force to put his foot down against the other vampire families. You will no longer have to hide in fear if the others are committing wrongdoings."

Edward was speaking so passionately that many felt like they could believe him. They weren’t sure if it was some ploy, just to give them an energy boost or what, but after hearing Edward some were starting to be convinced.
