“Indeed. Countless people have attempted to locate the casket of the first vampire ancestor in order to obtain the

vampiric pearl within it…” replied Old Flint with a nod.

“The vampiric pearl? You came here looking for that, right?” asked Gerald.

“It is. The vampiric pearl is a treasure of the vampires that’ll allow me to obtain a new body!” explained Old Flint.

Upon hearing that, Gerald simply nodded. While the treasure certainly sounded intriguing, he wasn’t all that

interested in it. After all, he had only come here to help Old Flint out.

Regardless, after properly inspecting it, Gerald then said, “…Well, it seems safe enough. Let’s open the casket!”

Hearing that, Old Flint then nodded, eager to finally be able to get his hands on the vampiric pearl.

Seeing no objections from Old Flint, Gerald then turned to face Juno and Nori before saying, “You two, stay a

distance from us! If anything goes wrong, run for it, understand?”

Naturally, Juno and Nori obeyed. Quickly walking toward the entrance, both of them then stood still, not daring to

move around too much as they waited for Gerald and the other two to begin uncovering the casket…

Seeing that the girls were now at a safe distance, Gerald then faced Ray before instructing, “Ray, come over here!

You’re in charge of unchaining those two corners while I unchain these two!”

Once both of them got into position, Gerald and Ray then slowly began unchaining the casket… and once the final

chains were released, the casket fell to the ground with a loud ‘thud’, instantly sending a cloud of dust flying all over

the place!

Since the casket had been here for thousands of years, it wasn’t all that surprising for it to be this dusty. Whatever

the case was, their next step was to open it…

“…Alright, stand there and help me push the lid off!” ordered Gerald.

“Sure thing, Gerald!” replied Ray as he did as he was told…

Following that, Gerald then pushed hard to open the lid of the casket… and soon enough, the contents inside were

plain for all to see.

Everyone close enough was greeted by the sight of a body that couldn’t decay any further as well as several

treasures that had been placed along with the corpse.

Seeing that, Old Flint instantly began investigating the contents of the coffin…

“Where could the vampiric pearl be…?” asked Gerald in a curious tone.

However, before Old Flint could come up with an answer, Gerald—who had noticed that the vampire’s throat was

bulging slightly—quickly added, “…I… I think it’s in his throat!”

With that said, Gerald then took a small knife out before slicing open the corpse’s throat… And sure enough, a

blood-red pearl soon revealed itself! It was the legendary vampiric pearl!

Handing it to Old Flint, Gerald then asked, “This should be it, right?”

The old man’s hands now quivering, Old Flint then emotionally replied, “…Yes… Yes, it is… I’ve finally found it… The

vampiric pearl…! To think that it would be so well preserved…!”

Despite the joyous occasion, it was around then when the vampire’s body crumbled into ashes before promptly

disappearing…

Seeing this, Gerald couldn’t help but frown slightly. For some reason, he felt that something was off…

Regardless, the old man quickly began mumbling excitedly to himself as he walked over to a lone corner to admire

the pearl…

While his behavior was slightly odd, Gerald and Ray simply exchanged glances with one another. Whatever the case

was, their mission was complete now that they had obtained the pearl. With that in mind, it meant that it was high

time they finally left this horrible place…

With that, Gerald then said, “…Alright, since we’ve got what we wanted, let’s hurry and leave this place already!”
