Heydrich Oxen Pria Ehrenberg’s Pov
“So?” Xan asked me as soon as we got home from Ehrenberg Mansion. “What are we going to do now that Ara is starting to make her move?”
“Well, we have to move fast,” Agad akong dumeretso sa kwarto na kasalukuyan kong ginagamit at sinimulang ilagay sa bag ang mga vials ng mga serum na nakapatong sa mesa ko. “According to the experiment that I conducted last time, any member of the Shiann clan that suddenly turned into a vampire will hunt other vampire species because its blood is what they need.”
“Are you telling me that if a Shiann became a vampire, they need to feed on other vampires so they could live?” tanong niya na tinanguan ko.
“Yes,” sagot ko. “Hindi lang nila iyon kailangan para mabuhay. Kailangan nila iyon para manatili ang kakayahan nila bilang isang bampira. Because if they feed on human’s blood, they will soon become humans again.”
“What?” bakas ang matinding gulat sa kanyang mukha.
“To be honest, let’s just talk about this later,” sabi ko. “We have to get to Mount Cory as fast as we can because those Shiann Vampires will surely attack the village at sunset.”
“Sunset?”
“Well, that is the fun fact about it.” Hinablot ko na ang kanyang kamay. “Because the Shiann Vampire doesn’t have any sun resistance so they are active at night.” Agad ko na siyang hinila at tinahak ang daan paalis.
Nakasalubong pa namin si Wayne na nagtatakang tumingin sa akin ngunit sinenyasan ko lang siya na sumunod sa akin at agad naman niyang ginawa hanggang makarating kami sa kotse.
“Drive as fast as you can, Xan,” sambit ko. We need to get there soon. I will explain everything to you while you are driving.”
Agad binuhay ni Xan ang sasakyan at mabilis iyong pinaandar. “Talk.”
“Shiann Clan was actually one of the oldest vampire clans that first came to this country,” I started. “They are a kind of slave of Sierra Clan. But when they finally learn about the secrets of Kreyo Sierra, they decide to start their relationship with humans.”
“Are you saying that they are producing half-bloods?”
Umiling ako. “Their cases are different,” turan ko. “They stop feeding with human’s blood when they are still a vampire and rely only to s*x so they could control their thirst for blood but not consuming blood will lessen their life so they think of another way to survive for a long time.”
“That when they learn about consuming another vampire’s blood when they are finally in human form,” sabi ni Wayne.
“Yes,” sagot ko. “Yes. But they are still sexually active with their human partner and they continue consuming the blood of a vampire to maintain their beautiful and young appearance for a very long time even though they are not a fully vampire anymore.”
“A human that drinks vampire blood?” hindi makapaniwala na sambit ni Xan. “They manage to get off the grid and make sure that Sierra will not know their activities for a very long time.”
“Maybe because they know that the half-blood of the Ehrenberg Clan can detect their moves, they laylo,” sabi ko. “But when they learn about my disappearance, they immediately start their plan on taking this country and make them the leader of both races.”
A former slave of a monarch vampire is now the leader of the land where they decided to settle. Well, I didn’t really know any of this before but when I learned about the ability of the Shiann’s blood, I told Wayne to get me all the books that my clan wrote about the history of the Valier.
And I started with the very first book that was actually written by Hariya and Kreyo themselves about all the information of all the vampires and humans that live when they both are still alive.
“I think Ara learned about these things before and it is the main reason why she took all the children that the Shiann sacrificed to Hei,” dagdag ko pa. “She knows that the Shiann that turned into a vampire will surely become a weapon against us. She could easily control them because they practically grew up with them. And I think that is also the main reason why she helped Hei to put a curse on Shiann.”
“Basically, the Shiann Clan was actually used by Ara to produce potential human subjects that will soon become part of the army that will serve her forever,” sabi ni Xan. “And we didn’t even anticipate this kind of move from her.”
“Who says?”
Kunot noo silang napatingin sa akin.
“What do you mean?” tanong ni Xan.
“Well, I actually anticipated this move of hers when I learned the special ability of the Shiann Clan.” Binuksan ko ang bag ko at ipinakita sa kanila ang mga vial na laman noon. “This is the antidote that I need to inject to every Shiann vampire that you will see there.”
“Antidote?”
I nodded. “I treated their vampire abilities like a virus that has been pestering their system and giving them that blood lust that they don’t really shouldn’t have to begin with. So I managed to create this one.”
Kinuha ni Wayne ang isang vial at tinitigan ito. “Anong magagawa nito sa kanila kapag na-inject na ito sa katawan nila?”
“First, they will lose their vampire ability,” sambit ko. “Then, it will start to change their vampire DNA and make it back to their original human DNA,” paliwanag ko. “But…”
“I don’t like things that ends with but,” naiiling na sabi ni Xan.
“It will only work on a Shiann vampire that was turned using the blood of rogue and common vampires,” dagdag ko. “And you both don’t have the ability to detect who holds that kind of blood in their body so I want you to immediately get as far as you can after you inject it to them.”
“Does it work instantly?” tanong pa ni Xan na ikinabuntong hininga ko.
“That is the tricky part of this,” sabi ko. “I still haven't had a chance to test it out so I don’t really not sure if it will work. That is why I need you to be careful once you try it.”
“Then, we are only relying on luck.” Napabuntong hininga na lamang si Wayne. “I just hope that it will work.”
“Don’t worry,” I said, which made their faces lighten up. “I already prepared my plan B.”
“And what is it?”
“Simple lang naman,” sabi ko. “Palakasin ang barrier na nakabalot sa village at magkulong doon hanggang sa mag-umaga.”
“What?”
