“Sir, it is true. There is a missile coming right towards us.” The driver glanced outside from his side mirror and immediately warned Lucard.

“Damn you, human!” Lucard growled with anger and jumped out of the car. He floated in front of the missile and released a lot of blood from his blood bank. He held the missile with his bloody hand and floated it towards the sky.

Suddenly, the sky turned a little dark and the hurricane appeared in front of him. This wasn’t a normal hurricane though. When it appeared, it formed a purple portal in front of him.

Beep! Beep!

The missile let out a sound that shocked him. He immediately threw the missile towards the portal.

Boom!

As soon as the missile struck the portal, it exploded. Lucard used his blood to form a wall in front of him. After a few seconds though, the explosion slowly vanished together with the portal.

Lucard angrily rushed back at the car and shouted “Damn it! You used me to close that portal.”

“So what? I was just giving you a demonstration of what could happen if you make the wrong decision. Now, I will give you ten minutes to return my daughter and if you do not appear within ten minutes, the missiles will launch on their own.”

Beep! Beep!

Suddenly, the screen changed and a countdown appeared on his screen. Lucard clenched his fist with hatred._{-ɴ(0)ᴠᴇʟ.}

“Hehe!” On another side, Ely giggled with a bright smile. Her father was weak but he won’t break his promise. If anyone dares to hurt her, he will destroy his entire family.

“How dare you laugh?” Lucard turned at Ely and tried to clutch her head but, he could only see the mocking smile on her face. It was clear that even if he wanted, he can’t hurt her.

Even though he has kidnapped her, he hasn’t hurt her. That means Blood Queen still has to behave despite being the strongest. There are things that she can’t do without a proper reason.

This is why he was very angry. A slight mistake could cost his life but he wanted to make this mistake. He wanted to slap her. Unfortunately, even he is bound by strength.

Blood Queen’s strength is absolutely dominant. Nobody can challenge her authority unless they have a proper reason. And, this reason was quite simple. He was quite scared of her but his family wanted him to marry her.

If he marries Blood Queen, Ely will become his daughter and the next strongest vampire who could easily dominate humans and werewolves. Because even Blood Queen despite being the strongest can’t overcome the forces of werewolves.

They don’t have the strongest ones like her but they have a lot of strong people only one step behind her. Unlike them, the conditions of vampires were quite miserable.

The difference between Blood Queen and him was huge that he trembles just with her gaze. Despite both of them being the heads of two of the top ten vampire families.

“Return!” Lucard gritted his teeth and commanded.

But the driver had already turned around. In fact, he was also helpless. He had already made the intention to return because if those nukes fall on Dorth Family territory, his family will die as well. _{ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ}

Lucard noticed it but didn’t say anything. Not only did he lose nearly eight Beta vampires but also couldn’t accomplish his mission. He felt shameful as a human.

‘I will kill him. I can’t kill him now but he is a human, right? He would need to come out for shopping or anything else. I will kill him as soon as I get the chance. First, I should teach those arrogant humans a lesson. How dare they use such tone in front of me?’

Although he lost his opportunity, he didn’t lose his mind. If he attacks Brian directly, Brian can launch those weapons. So, he must attack him whenever he is out and took him out in a single hit.

Within eight minutes, his car was already back in Zone B. He used his blood aura to fly to Brian’s apartment and pressed the bell.

Creek!

The door opened and the person behind the door was none other than Brian. The blood aura around Ely disappeared and she dashed towards Brian.

“Daddy!”

For some reason, she didn’t cry but rather just jumped into his embrace. Holding her, Brian gave him a straight gaze and said “Next time if you want to fight me, make sure that you don’t care about anyone.”

Then, he turned around as he continued “Because I don’t. For my daughter, even if I have to blow up the earth, I will do it.”

Creek!

The door closed and Lucard gritted his teeth outside. He didn’t take the car but rather fly towards the Headquarters of the UMA.

“Elders, I need you to come to the headquarters. These humans are getting too arrogant and have forgotten their place.”

After a few minutes, he crashed the glasses and landed inside the office. In that office, there were their people. But, his gaze was only on one person. The Director of the Technical Department.

He walked towards him while releasing his insane bloodline pressure.

“Human, do you think you can fight vampires just because you have acquired a little strength with your technology?”

His tone was full of anger and frustration.

Bang!

Suddenly, another aura burst out next to him. This aura belonged to a person who was standing next to the director. Two auras collided and repelled each other.

Tap!

The director tapped the table with his finger and looked at Lucard.

“Mr. Lucard, I don’t know if you are aware of this or not despite being the Head of Dorth but Mr. Brian is the most important person for the entirety of UMA.”

“The person standing next to me represents the current strength of humanity as an individual but Mr. Brian represents the future strength of humanity as a unity.”

“Anything that threatens his life must be exterminated but since you are the head of the family, this is the final warning for you.”

The director stood up and continued “If you wage a war against me or Gabriel, it will mean nothing. But, if you wage a war against Mr. Brian, you wage a war against humanity.”

“Are you clear enough?”

“You!” Lucard clenched his fist when he felt humiliated because he didn’t know this at all. And, he was the head.

“Don’t worry director, he perfectly got this.” Suddenly, another voice rang from the side as an elderly man floated next to him.

“Lucard is a new head of the family so he isn’t aware of many things. But, don’t worry, we will teach him everything. Let’s return him now!” Another elder who was female smiled and answered.

“Leave! Who told you that you can leave?”

Suddenly, a voice rang from the door and a figure slowly entered.

ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ Crack! Crack! Crack

The walls started cracking, the wind changed into a hurricane and the lightning bolt suddenly struck outside the headquarters.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Lucard and two elders suddenly fell to their knees. At this moment, two people who were next to the director burst out their auras but didn’t dare to collide. They only used it to protect the director.

The person who was walking towards them. They had no intention of offending this person. They didn’t even want to fight this person. Superheroes weren’t afraid of vampires. They were the soldiers of humanity.

They are willing to fight for humanity in order to defeat the vampires but, this person alone installed such a fear in their hearts that they can’t summon the courage to fight.

‘She is here. Why? Why is she here? Is she going to kill me? Is she going to kill me?’ Lucard couldn’t even raise his head. His heartbeat was so loud that the elders next to him could hear.

But, even they had sweat on their foreheads. Suddenly, a red aura wrapped around Lucard’s neck. His body slowly floated towards the sky and the next moment, his eyes fell on her.

The peerless beauty, bloody red eyes, silver hair, and aura of a Queen. She was standing right in front of him, the incarnation of blood and death. Lucy Bathory was standing right in front of him.

She raised her hand and slowly moved her fingers inside. As she does that, the grip around Lucard’s neck narrowed and the cold tone rang in his ears.

“Tell me! Who gave you the courage to kidnap my daughter and injure my husband?”
