Chapter 461 - 470

Chapter 461 Acting Tenth leader

It didn't come as a surprise to any of the leaders that another meeting would be called so soon. Each of them had learnt things that were going on during the time since the last one had been called. It was clear to every one of them, this simple execution and the problem with the Punisher, were becoming bigger and bigger.

As for Muka, before exiting from the tunnels, he had ordered his guards to deliver blood to Fex. He wanted to make sure he would be okay and survive until the execution time. Also, he had ordered Silver to leave the place immediately and to return to her castle.

At first, she had refused several times, that she wouldn't leave until she knew her brother was okay, and in the end, Muka had to pull his authority over her to send her away. But in truth, Muka was looking out for Silver. He feared that whoever had dealt with his own Vampire knights was possibly still keeping an eye on them.

He couldn't feel any extra presence, but there was a high chance this would be reported back.

If they weren't there right now, they would assume that only Muka new of the fact that what happened to Fex, and he didn't want Silver to be involved in all of this. He could see looking at her, that this whole thing happening with her family was taking a toll on her.

While on his way to the king's castle and council room, Muka was thinking about who could possibly be responsible for doing such a thing to Fex. If they were able to scare his own Vampire knights into doing such a thing, then it would have to be someone at least on the level of a vampire lord.

Knowing Fex had hidden the identity of the illegal, and now that the illegal had been saved by the Punisher. He could only assume it was one of the leaders that was afraid of the punishers return.

That would leave out, the fourth, the fifth and his own the ninth family. He could also take out the thirteenth family. Muka couldn't imagine Lee doing that to his own son, no matter how much he cared about the rules.

In Muka's mind, there was one clear suspect. The first leader Bryce. For a long time now he had already been acting as if he was king, going around and doing as he pleased without asking permission of the others.

It was true that he had the favour of most of the vampire leaders to be selected as the next king. If anyone was more afraid of the punishers return, then it would be him. But he couldn't make that bold accusation in front of everyone. It would be a serious crime to so so. Hopefully, when Fex had come to, he would be able to give more information on who had attacked him.

Finally, all of the leaders had made it into the room, and for once it looked different compared to before, that was because, in the tenth seat, there was someone sitting there. Someone they hadn't seen for a long time. The old Vampire knight Edward. As for the king's seat, and the seat that was opposite it. They both still remained empty.

"There seems to have been some interesting developments that have come up since last time." Bryce said. 'So I would like to continue the meeting form where we left of last time and so the same thing does not happen. I have asked Edward to come here as acting tenth leader for now."

The others new that possibly couldn't be the only reason why Edward was called, and as Bryce started the questioning, they quickly found out it wasn't.

"Edward, it seems that the tenth castle lit up recently. We all know the flame was lit up again a while ago. Has the tenth leader finally returned, or has a new one come into the castle in their place? Last time you were here, we asked you if you knew who it was, but you said you had no idea and hadn't been in contact with Vincent for years. Yet, you still seem to be loyal to him till this very day."
