SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God novel Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Care to make a wager?

"Don’t worry. The method to become a vampire is being published in the guild database as we speak."

Every head turned in unison toward the source of that voice.

Striding confidently from the center of the Azure Serpents’ formation was a tall man clad in a silver-blue robe threaded with scales. His gaze was sharp, his smile smug, and his aura unmistakably refined, clearly someone used to command. His player tag flickered into view:

[Lv. 25] Thorne – Azure Serpent Vice Guildmaster

Damon raised a brow. He remembered this guy. Thorne was one of the original theorycrafters who specialized in class evolutions and racial transformations. A decent PvPer, but an even better loudmouth.

In his last life, he eventually joined a top-tier guild as a strategist after abandoning Azure Serpents.

Thorne walked up, arms spread like he was about to welcome Damon to a tea party. "Blood God! It’s an honor. Truly. You’ve made quite the waves lately." He gave a mock bow. "And your companions look... intimidating. I assume you’re here for the dungeon?"

Kate crossed her arms, the blood orbs spinning tighter around her like a silent warning. Mark said nothing, but his eyes said it all. His gaze was cold and threatening.

Damon gave a nonchalant shrug. "We were planning to take a look. Thought we’d have some fun."

Thorne laughed. "Three people for a 30-player raid? Bold. But hey, I get it. PR stunt, content farming, show of force. I respect the hustle." His eyes gleamed, lips curling slightly. "But since you’re here... how about a friendly competition? We both run it. Separate teams. See who clears it faster."

A quiet hush fell over the clearing. The Azure Serpents began murmuring again. Some grinned. Others looked worried.

Damon tilted his head and smirked. "You want to race?" He did not understand why the guy would pick such an odd confrontation. He expected him to straight up start trying to kill the three of them, but now this.

Thorne clasped his hands together. "Why not? Friendly wager. If we win, you tell us the vampire transformation method directly. If you win... I’ll give you exclusive access to one of our hidden quest chains in the southern marshes. We’ve got the NPC on lock."

Kate arched a brow. "You’re that confident?"

Thorne shrugged. "I’m a betting man, honey. And we’ve been preparing for this run for two days. You three just walked in." Then he added with a sly smile, "Unless... you’re not sure you can win." His eyes lingered on Kate for a moment longer before they shifted to Damon.

Damon obviously noticed it. "Deal." He calmly answered.

Thorne blinked.

He clearly hadn’t expected Damon to accept so easily, without bluster, without hesitation. For just a second, his cocky veneer cracked but only for a second. "Excellent," he said, clapping his hands. "Then let the game begin."

"Alright," Damon said, stepping forward. "We are going in first." He paused, then glanced at Thorne. "And don’t worry about finding me after the dungeon run. I will come find you to get the secret quest details." _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}

"Look at them... They don’t even look nervous. Who are those people?"
