[Demon Continent, Nightless City]
After hearing that boldly claim from Aileene, all of the elders in the council couldn't believe what they heard as they begun to murmur at each other
Of course the one most affected of all was Layson, as he only knew was that Sirius was the king of Vampire's and if Aileene was now the current Queen, then Sirius condition would be either dead or retired
"No!" Shouted Layson
Hearing that Aileene slightly glanced at Layson before ignoring him, as for the ten elder council, they were surprised by the rejection of Layson
Struggling to stand up after the beat down from Aileene few minutes ago, Layson then gave his own piece of say
"That's impossible! She must be lying, I mean the current King of Vampire's is Sirius, my uncle... And now she's claiming that she's the new Queen? She must have done something... By what she displayed so far, I'm afraid that it won't be enough to kill uncle" argued Layson
At that point all the ten elder council was brought to a thinking as they begun to form questions in their mind
Seeing this Layson smiled as he only needed one more push for the council to question Aileene's claim
"Just think about it! I would've made a big impact in our society, if ever Sirius my uncle was killed and the ruler be changed, but how come there wasn't any commotion at all? Doesn't that mean she's lying?" Urged Layson
With that some council members begun to nod in agreement to Layson defense
Meanwhile as Layson did this, Aileene on the other hand quietly observed the situation as the atmosphere changed under the guidance of Layson
"Not bad... You look like your quite an influencer" praised Aileene
"You!... Shut your lying mouth, whatever you say might be words meant to deceive us" roared Layson as he felt elated as the council backed him
Hearing that Aileene shrugged
"Well... If you don't want that compliment then, your quite bad at influencing, are you even trying?"
With that slight twist of words, Layson begun to grow furious as Aileene actually used his words against him
"You..." Growled Layson
At this moment the council begun to question Aileene
"Layson here has a point! You a mere young one doesn't even have the capability of beating Sirius" said the 5th Elder
"He's right! From what we can feel from you, we believe that your still far from being able to defeat him" added by the 3rd Elder
"But we do admit that you have some battle experience as per shown when you showed your strength, but that isn't enough to defeat Sirius" said the 8th Elder
"Why do you even lie to us? Does this in anyway benefit you?" Asked by the 6th Elder
It's must be noted that Aileene is currently suppressing her power to 10% as her appearance was a child, so all in all in their eyes, Aileene was a newly vampire who was not even a slight stronger than a mere demon commander
Seeing this one sided argument, Layson couldn't help but snicker at Aileene who was way smaller than him, but as arrogant as an adult
"You naughty little child, did your parent ever taught you not to lie?" Asked Layson
As he asked that Aileene on the other hand answered plainly
"Oh! I'm sorry but my parents are dead"
Hearing that the council once again begun to gossip, except for the 1st Elder Hyru who seemed to be intrigue by what Aileene said as it was connected to someone he knew
"Dead? Hah! And here I thought you were great! But in the end your just an orphan" said Layson as he intend to strike anger within Aileene's temper
But contrary to his expectations Aileene simply glanced at him as she said
"Well no feelings barred but my parents were killed by the same species they protected, meaning they were killed by vampires... Yet I never truly was a try at my kind, but only angry at the person who killed my parents" said Aileene
With that Layson shouted
"What does that have anything to do in this situation? Are you trying to play us? How dare you fool around!!!"
But instead of being triggered by Layson's words she then tried to provoke him
"Well if you won't believe me then, I'll say... The moment I took away his title as the King was so exhilarating, if only you've seen his face... Despair, loss, grief... If only he would've shown me more of that reaction of his... Such a waste, in the end he was scared witless as he begun to struggle and begged for my mercy" smiled Aileene
Hearing that Layson obviously got angered as he shouted
"Lies! Lies! All lies! You have no proof!"
But at this moment 1st elder Hyru talked
"We can see if she's lying or not by an appraisal, won't it be more convenient to use that rather than hearsay?" Suggested Hyru
With a thought the council nodded in agreement as they then called out for an appraiser and ordered to examine Aileene
As the appraiser begun to examine Aileene, he suddenly saw a title in her status in which emitted a deep and murderous atmosphere
Soon when the appraiser tried to probed with it, the energy that was inside the title immediately swallowed the appraisers consciousness at that moment
With that sudden attack, the appraiser slump down the floor as he screamed in horror and slowly back away from Aileene
Soon the appraiser begun to shout
"Who! Who are you? Why are you pretending to be a child? You... What is that power? Answer me!"
Seeing the reaction from the appraiser, surely enough the council was troubled as Layson was speechless from that reaction
Soon the council grew disturb as they question Aileene once more
"What's the meaning of this? Are you hiding something from us? Cause if you do then you better fuss up!" Said the 7th Elder
"Are you trying to deceive us by using a child's face? Are you taking us for a fool?" Asked by the 10th Elder
"Just who are you?, if your really what you claim then, what is your true form and who do you work for?" Asked by the 3rd Elder
Naturally the council was wary of Aileene's existence as they soon backed down
In contrast to the council's wary attitude and behavior, Layson on the other hand begun to grow crazy as he denied everything and stood firm in his belief that Sirius was still alive
At this instant Hyru's suspicion was cleared as he begun to price together what Aileene's claims were and slowly identify the identity of the person Infront of them
Surely enough the 1st Elder laughed as he leaned back on his chair and relaxedly asked Aileene
"Aileene!"
Hearing that call out Aileene naturally looked towards Hyru as all the people inside this room looked at the 1st Elder who somehow smiled and said
"You've grown so much..."
With that everyone except for Aileene was alerted as they begun to ask the 1st Elder
"Elder! You know this kid?"
"Who is she? Can you tell us?"
"I can't believe that 1st Elder knew her yet he kept quiet... Do you have anything to say to us?"
"Please inform us 1st Elder"
With that commotion Aileene simply smiled back as she replied back to Hyru's greeting
"Of course I've grown, it's been many years now since that time when we met each other"
Seeing that interaction all the people inside seemed to notice the way they behaved as they talked, it felt like they were talking to each other like an old acquaintances
At this Layson seemed lost all of the sudden as he doesn't understand the situation any longer
However both Aileene band Hyru continued their conversation
"Tell me Aileene, what have you been doing after all this time? I haven't heard anything from you"
"Me? Well I'm experiencing the world has to offer with my new family" replied Aileene
"New family? You mean you had a new mother and father of the same kind? Did they raised you after your real parents died?" Asked Hyru
"Huh? Hell no! After my parents died, I lived my life alone in my old home, after that throughout the course of the years, I somehow gained siblings of a different species but the same type of beings" answered Aileene
"I... I don't understand" said Hyru
"Of course you won't, it's too deep to understand, but currently I have three siblings with me while the other one was older than me, while the other two is younger than me"
"Huh? Oh... Really?"
"Yeah! A Dragon, a Fenrir, and a Human"
Hearing that Layson scoffed at her as he said
"What this? Your playing house with other species? And you call them family? In the end youbare just a lowly... "
But before he could finish his words, Hyru immediately stopped him
"Don't say that word or else you'll regret it"
With that Layson was dumbfounded
"Are you taking her side? What's wrong with you?" Argued Layson
But instead of backing down 1st Elder Hyru argued too
"No what's wrong with you? Didn't you know Aileene is the daughter of the former King of the Vampire's even before Sirius, in fact she's much older than you... She held the title forgotten princess cause not much vampire knew of her existence, but legitimately she has right for the throne since she was a former princess"
As if discovering a new continent the whole council went into uproar as they couldn't believe what they heard, but in the midst of this noise Hyru still asked Aileene
"But why do you look like a child?"
As he asked this Aileene simply answered
"Because I'm suppressing my strength"
At that claim all eyes focused on Aileene as they couldn't believe what she said
"Are you saying that your hiding your strength which resulted in you looking like a child?"
"Yes!"
"What kind of magic is this? To be able to look young just by suppressing your power?" Asked Hyru
After all as an old person, everyone of them wanted to look young once more as they got intrigue by Aileene's magic
"Then can you show us your full strength?"
At that moment the whole room turned silent as they glanced between Aileene and 1st Elder Hyru
"Are you sure?" Asked Aileene
"I'm sure! Answered by the 1st Elder Hyru
Hearing that confirmation Aileene then warned him
"Don't say that I didn't told you so"
At that moment as if a Dam has been released Aileene released his full potential by 100% and seemed to shook the whole underground City due to it's pressure and lethality
Not only that but on the surface it also cause trouble as the earth cracked as the sky dimmed dark
At this moment Aileene has turned into a full grown woman in a curvy figure, but despite that alluring figure of her's, she still emitted murderous vibe as if she's the embodiment of pure destruction
In just one release she had far surpassed the power strike of any other people she had challenged and fought so far
I'm fact if comparing it to Raguel's power strike, one can say that Aileene's burst was 10x much more stronger than Raguel's 100%
Faced with this pressure Layson couldn't keep calm anymore as he slowly lose consciousness while the ten Elder Council was frightened, awe, confused, and etc. As they faced such aura
Soon after a short demonstration Aileene withdraw her aura as she was completely oblivious as she brought a huge uproar in the masses inside the city
With that Layson lost all of the will to fight agaisnt Aileene as the latter looked at him in pity, causing him to wet his pants in fear just by the glare alone
I'm a huff he abandoned all reasoning as he ran outside the room in fear
As for Hyru, he couldn't help but leaned forward to his table as his legs have given out due to fear
Even though the council has considerable skills, Aileene's strength however completely outclassed her species, thus easily putted her at the top of the food chain
As for the appraiser he have long black out from fear too
Without a doubt Aileene was the new Queen of the Vampire's which concluded that Sirius was dead
Placing her hand in her waist as she smiled seductively Aileene then waited for the council's to regain their wits
"So... With your strength, what do you want from us?" Asked Hyru
With that Aileene seductively replied
"Well I wanted our species to participate on a large raid towards the enemy camp, after all this raid will decide whether the vampire race will survive the catastrophe or not"
Hearing that their existence is on the line in this raid, 1st Elder Hyru then said
"Please enlighten me"
