Chapter 9
When the nobles heard this, they abandoned any pretense of mercy.
They unleashed their most powerful skills, desperate to end my life quickly.
However, each attack they launched was futile, like tossing a pebble into the ocean without causing any disturbance.
I simply glanced at one of the vampires, and before he could even utter a cry, he was reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.
“Amy, what kind of creature have you become…?”
Lina was terrified, but she forced herself to stay strong and decided to kill me. “No matter what kind of creature you are, surrounded by all of us today, you won’t leave here alive!”
I stared at her coldly, feeling nothing but disgust and annoyance.
Just as I was about to unleash my power to eliminate Lina in one swift move, a powerful force rushed toward me.
Hugo had intervened to defend her.
“Amy, I’m the one responsible for turning you into this creature. I carry the weight of the Kindred. Please forgive me…”
Hugo summoned all his strength, shutting his eyes tightly in anguish, ready to end my life himself.
At that very moment, the door to the forbidden zone burst open.

A group of vampire guards, loyal followers of the Original Vampire’s statue, immediately thwarted any attacks aimed at me as they stepped in.
“Amy is a direct descendant of the Original Vampire. Her bloodline is even purer than Hugo’s. Your powers come from the Original Vampire’s bloodline. How dare you disregard your heritage and strike at the Original Vampire!”
Upon hearing these words, every noble in attendance dropped to their knees, bowing in deference.
I pointed at one of them and said, “I acknowledge your power. Retrieve Lina’s memories so Hugo can see the ‘good deeds‘ she has performed.”
Once Lina’s wrongdoings against me were revealed, Hugo became furious and intended to take her life.
me back of my own accord.
She dropped to her knees, tears streaming down her face, and clung to Hugo’s legs, begging, “Your Highness, I You know how much I love you. It was enough to betray my famous vampire hunter parents for you.
“I was wrong to plot against Amy, but my love for you made me act out of jealousy and irrationality.”
Just as Lina finished speaking, the noble who had extracted her memories ruthlessly revealed the truth. “Your Highness, it’s true she returned willingly, but not out of love for you. Lina was terminally ill and sought your Embrace.
“She wanted immortality as a high–level vampire and hoped to steal some of your extraordinary power.”
Hugo couldn’t take it any longer.

Before Lina could say anything else, he wrapped his hand around her throat and ended her life himself.
As her wicked actions received their rightful punishment and she turned to ashes, Hugo came up to me with eyes full of remorse.
“Amy, you haven’t forgotten our love, have you? I was deceived by that treacherous woman, Lina. Please forgive me for what I did to you. Give me another chance. Can we begin anew, please?”
When I looked at Hugo’s once–attractive face, it used to make my heart skip a beat with every glance.
Now, all I feel is disgust and contempt.
With this in mind, I smirked icily, channeling the Original’s power to compel Hugo to kneel before me in devout submission.
I then crushed his illusions with four simple words.
“You don’t deserve it.”
