BXBX NOVEL Chapter 117 Capture Him At All Costs
Vladimir sensed that their Alpha was already awake so he went to check on him in his chamber. Upon entering the room, he saw Cedric sitting on his bed. He looked like he was puzzled about something.
Catching faint motion at the edge of his peripheral vision, he darted his gaze toward the door only to meet Vladimir\'s eyes.
"Alpha, how do you feel?" Vladimir walked with large strides to reach his bed in no time.
"My head seems hazy and I can\'t remember what happened last night. What\'s wrong with me?" Cedric continued massaging his temples.
Vladimir had already expected this. The vampire already erased Cedric\'s and Cleo\'s memories. Even Cleo didn\'t have any recollection of his fight with Kira.
"You fought a vampire last night. I found you injured and unconscious. Only a vampire could erase your memory." Vladimir paused for a moment, thinking about Kira, Marceline\'s bodyguard. If his assumption was right then Kira was certainly a vampire.
"I suspect… that Marceline Zhou\'s bodyguard is a vampire," Vladimir shared his speculation with Cedric.
"WHAT?!" Cedric was shocked beyond belief. How could a mere vampire defeat him? And what did he say… Marceline\'s bodyguard is a vampire?!
"Have you confirmed it with your own eyes?"
Cedric still refused to believe it. If the vampire who fought him was an elite member of the Vampire Rebels then he could accept it. But if it was Kira… he would feel ashamed for being defeated by him!
"According to my analysis and the result of the investigation of the team I sent last night, all clues pointed to Kira as the one whom you and Cleo encountered last night."
Vladimir told him everything about their plan of killing Kira and taking Marceline. They miserably failed and the two of them got badly injured.
After hearing Vladimir\'s story and explanation, Cedric began to break things inside his chamber. He was not able to control his anger and frustration. He had lost count of how many times he got furious this month just because of a bloodsucker vampire.
"Gather our elite members who are in the field! Summon them today. I want that vampire captured tomorrow night! BRING HIM TO ME!" He snarled in rage.
"Got it, Alpha! I\'ll send them a message." Vladimir turned to leave but before he got out of the chamber, Cedric stopped him.
"How\'s your investigation about the white wolf? I haven\'t heard your report yet." Cedric walked toward his wardrobe, putting his robe on.
His room was in a chaotic state once again, but at least, he was able to vent his anger.
"After searching the mountains and the forest in Northleaf Timberland, we didn\'t see the white wolf. But we saw white furs scattered on the ground. Our werewolf fighters are not lying. The white wolf exists."
Cedric became more interested in the white wolf residing in the Northleaf Timberland Forest.
"Do you think that white wolf is a guardian of that Northleaf forest assigned by the Moon Goddess?" Cedric asked Vladimir.
Among the members of the White Claw Pack, Vladimir was considered the Brain of the pack because of his wisdom. He knew lots of things about the legend of the werewolves.
White wolves were considered the rarest and the strongest type of werewolf for the reason that they were direct descendants of the Moon Goddess. They were blessed by the Moon Goddess, giving them power superior to the other werewolves.
But ten thousand years ago, white werewolves disappeared from the Kingdom of Phantasia. No one knew what happened to them. But it was said that the Moon Goddess gathered the white wolves and summoned them to another world, making them guardians.
When the war broke out between Werewolf Clan and Vampire Clan, white wolves were already gone. The werewolf clan believed that vampires, including the Vampire King, were no match against the white wolf.
So they believed that they would have never lost against the vampires if the great white werewolves were still around during the war.
"Our Moon Goddess has disappeared for so long. It might be the case. It would be possible that she assigned white wolves to serve as the guardian of the forest." Vladimir shared his opinion.
"I wish to see them. They are the legendary white wolves. Assign two members to monitor the Northleaf Timberland Forest. If they happen to see the white wolf, inform me right away." Cedric gave his order.
"I\'ll choose our best Scouters." Vladimir promptly responded. "One more thing, Alpha. We also found out that the Zhou Ancestral Mansion is located just a few kilometers away from the Northleaf Timberland Forest. Marceline Zhou is staying at that mansion."
Cedric had never expected that. He thought Marceline was living in the Zhou Villa and no one was occupying the Old Mansion.
"With this, there is a great possibility that the vampire who fought the werewolf fighters in Northleaf Forest was also her bodyguard. Remember, when our headquarters was attacked and infiltrated, Marceline and her bodyguard dropped by at your office. I believe this is not just a pure coincidence." Vladimir was able to connect the dots. Every clue was pointing to Kira.
"If he is that vampire then I have more reason to eliminate that pesky bodyguard of Marceline. Capture him tomorrow night! But make sure not to hurt Marceline Zhou!"
"I understand Alpha. I will relay this order to our elite members. But don\'t you think it is too much to send all our elite members?" Vladimir was thinking that they were overestimating Kira\'s power by sending all the elite werewolves.
Cedric\'s expression darkened. He didn\'t want to admit it but he felt like Kira was so strong and powerful that even he got injured and defeated. So to make sure that Kira would no longer escape this time, he was mobilizing the entire elite members of the White Claw Pack.
"Just do as I say. I will not allow that vampire to escape from our grasp once again. We need to capture and eliminate him as soon as possible." Cedric\'s decision was final.
"Okay, Alpha. I will prepare the team."
