*** BRIEF FLASHBACK ***
Instead of going straight to the fortress of the Red Lotus Coven, the vampire king decided to check the battleship reported by his loyal subject, Mercury.
Mercury led the inspection of the battleship.
The other vampire soldiers began checking the entire battleship and they confiscated all living chained humans on deck.
One after another was being taken by the vampire soldiers.
Then there was one last cabin unchecked.
Wilbert and Sharmaine faced the other vampire soldiers while Areej had her wrist tied by Sharmaine so that it would look like she was a personal slave.
"A member of Vanguard, Wilbert!" exclaimed by one of the vampire soldiers upon seeing Wilbert.
"Your Liege is requesting for the battleship to be emptied and everything in it taken to the royal castle," another vampire soldier reiterated the orders of their vampire king.
