"Does that mean that…
Your experiment might be the reason behind the destruction of our village?"
Eillia questioned as she narrowed her eyes.
"Yes, although the chances are thin, in the end, it was still an experiment, anything is possible, and the possibility of my experiment being the reason behind the destruction of your village can be true as well."
Thorton nodded and accepted.
Eillia was about to launch an attack in fury, however, Vivian stopped her again.
Eillia's eyes were clouded in rage right now, however, Vivian could see it clearly.
Thorton's eyes were clear, there was no malice in them, he was easily accepting everything and answering them honestly.
It wasn't hard for him to lie, if he did, there was nothing he or Eillia could do, however, he still chose to speak the truth.
However,
"I understand that everything was an accident, however, you have to understand my position as well, our village was attacked and it was done by a weapon made by a Dwarf, some of my people are very angry and won't be appeased until we avenge our race. This tension might lead to a condition that would be unfavourable to both of our races.
Therefore, I will ask you to compensate us half the amount of damage you caused in our village."
Vivian muttered and then he glanced at Thorton.
He knew he was wrong for asking compensation for something he hadn't done, however, he was a leader, and his hands were tied.
He had to do it.
"That is a given."
Thorton's answer, however, took Vivian by surprise.
"Of course, accident or not, in the end, your village was destroyed by a weapon that was made by me.
I have to compensate for the damages.
Not half, I'll pay double the amount of damage I have caused as an apology.
Not only that, I will even go with you two and apologize to everyone in your village formally."
Thorton muttered and let alone Vivian, even Eillia, who was about to kill everyone in this village in her rage was taken aback.
Vivian, however, quickly came out of his reverie and shook his head.
"You do not have to apologize, I know it is not your fault, I am already glad that you are so understanding about this matter."
Thorton smiled, he then turned around and glanced at Galvir, his assistant.
"Galvir, I will be going with these long-eared people, take care of the house, got it?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGalvir, on the other hand, just looked at everything with a deadpan look on his face and didn't respond.
"Oi! You got it or not!?"
"A-Ah yes yes, I got it." Galvir finally came out of his reverie and nodded.
Thorton then turned towards the Elves and muttered,
"Alright, let's go,"
Vivian and Eillia glanced at each other and nodded.
Vivian then turned towards Thorton and nodded,
"I am very thankful for what you are doing for us,"
"Yeah Yeah, let's move now," Thorton muttered.
The three of them left the Town together.
The other dwarves were shocked by this development, they didn't think that Thorton would go with the elves.
However, they could understand his thoughts.
Dwarves might be vulgar, but they were honest people.
If their weapons caused harm to someone, they would feel guilty as well, even if it wasn't their fault.
After thinking a little, everyone left and continued their work.
Galvir also shook his head and started heading towards the Town Gates.
"Hey, where are you going? Didn't Master Thorton tell you to take care of the house!?" The guard yelled.
Galvir turned around and looked at the guard, his blue eyes suddenly turned red as he ordered,
[Shut Up.]
The guard turned silent and Galvir left the Town as well.
However, he did not follow behind Thorton, rather, he walked into the forest and started running at a very high speed.
A few minutes later, he appeared in a certain area and soon, his height started increasing, his skin turned pale, his features turned sharper, his blue eyes turned Blood-red and his brown hair turned black.
Not only that, the clothes he was wearing changed as well and turned into Azriel's usual, black clothes with a blood-red long coat over the top.
"Sir Azriel."
Azriel nodded.
"How's the progress?" Ithania questioned.
Azriel's face then turned sour and he replied,
"Bad. No, worse.
The Elves came into the Town, I thought they would start fighting, however, the two parties compensated, that Thorton bastard even agreed to go with those Elves and compensate for all the damage his weapon had caused."
Ithania frowned.
This shouldn't have happened.
Why did the elves compensate?
That doesn't make any sense.
However, soon, Ithania shook her head.
There was no point thinking about it now, she will think about where everything went on later.
Now, she needs to think about the next course of action.
"What if I attack those 3 bastards and kill the Elves, all the blame should come to Thorton. That for sure will anger Elves, will it not?"
"No, we can't do that, if you let Thorton live, he will just tell everyone about you. We can plan and take action only because no one thinks that vampires can do anything, otherwise, everyone would have started doubting a vampire by now.
If Thorton reveals that there is a vampire who can kill Master Stage Cultivators, things would get problematic."
Ithania shook her head.
Azriel started thinking and then, he came up with another solution,
"What if I kill Thorton after he comes back from the Elves' village? No one would think that he would be killed midway and the dwarves would blame the Elves for it."
Ithania thought about it for a while and then shook her head again,
"That will work, however, from what you have told me, I am sure that this Vivian person isn't that dumb. I am sure he is suspecting something right now.
There is no way he would let Thorton go alone.
Most probably, they are going to abuse the call tablets to keep reporting everything.
No one would blame the Elves for it.
Also, the existence of 'someone' who wants the Dwarves and Elves to fight against each other will be revealed."
"Then what do you suggest?" Azriel questioned, he knew he wasn't good with the planning department, however, the same can't be said for Ithania, he believed that she will come out with a better plan.
Ithania thought about it for a good while, however, in the end, she shook her head,
"There is nothing we can do. Thorton's actions must have impressed Vivian, I don't think we can make them fight each other now.
Not before 5-6 years."
"Are you saying that we have to give up?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAzriel questioned and Ithania nodded.
"Yes, there is nothing we can do about all this.
It was my fault that I came up with a faulty plan and it was the Elves' calmness and the Dwarves' goodwill that they didn't fight it out with each other.
There is nothing we can do about it now.
We can only accept our defeat and learn from it. Also, it's not like coming here was completely useless, we got 50 vampires, did we not?"
Azriel glanced at Ithania's smiling face and it didn't take long for him to see through that fake smile.
She was sad, she was unhappy that her plan didn't work, however, she was still willing to accept her defeat and learn from it.
An attitude that is very unvampire-like.
Vampires are prideful beings, they do not accept their defeat that easily, however, Ithania was calmer than others, it was not because she was a half-vampire.
That could not be the reason since the other part of her blood was of a demon, an even more reckless and chaotic race.
The reason behind that is Ithania.
She herself has that level of control over herself and the books she has been reading all this time helped as well.
"So are we going back?" Azriel questioned.
"Yes.
We are going back."
Ithania nodded.
A small smile couldn't help but appear on Azriel's face.
It was a long journey, though they weren't able to do anything about Dwarves and Elves, they still achieved their goal and learned a lot.
This 2-month-long journey had finally come to an end.
"Alright, we will be moving now, let's go to other bases."
5 days later, Azriel, Ithania and all 50-plus vampires were standing at the same spot.
Azriel and Ithania glanced at each other and then, they used their call tablet.
…
*Buzz* *Buzz*
On the other side, Luminia and Lilia, who were sitting in the same room drinking red-coloured tea, felt their call tablet buzzing.
*Buzz* *Buzz*
*Buzz* *Buzz*
They waited and waited, and once the call tablet stopped buzzing after buzzing 3 times, a small smile appeared on their faces.
"Heh. They are finally done huh."
