Chapter 513 Cap 511: Alexandre Kadra Part 1(Chapter Preview)
When we see the entire history of the worst times of this Kingdom and the history of Alexander himself who was the King during those times, there are many things that don't make sense.
Knowing that there are some things that seem strange about this information, I turn to Lilian as I speak.
"Something's not right, how did he evolve into a Vampire?" (I)
"Besides in the end, how did he get such a strong army to withstand the onslaught of Two Realms for so long? Where did these elite troops go next?" (I)
"The way he solved all the Kingdom's problems in months doesn't make sense either, that's not the kind of thing that can be done that quickly." (I)
"I also found all of this strange, but I wasn't responsible for investigating this Kingdom at that time, I was busy with other jobs." (Lilian)
"But one thing I'm sure of, the reason he became a vampire was due to the Demon God of Corruption's blessing." (Lilian)
"There's even a Temple of Corruption in this city." (Lilian)
"I've read about this Demon God, the beliefs he teaches are incredible." (Lilith)
"I agree, this Demon God actually teaches the dangers of Corruption, he teaches the opposite of what he represents." (Vanessa)
"Like this?" (Samira)
"The teachings of this God are that the easy way can corrupt people, if in the face of difficulty someone chooses to take a path that goes against what he himself believes just because it is easier, then he has already begun to be corrupted." (Lilian)
"In life there will always be easy and difficult paths, taking an easy path to achieve a goal is not wrong, what can be considered wrong is choosing a path that goes against your own ideals just because it is easier." (Lilian)
"The Demon God of Corruption is one of the few Gods who have the ability to change the Race of the person who receives their blessing, furthermore, the person becomes stronger." (Lilian)
"But the moment that person goes out of his way and onto the Corruption road his Blessing is taken away while his ability to evolve again disappears." (Lilian)
"So one gets a punishment for not meeting the expectations of the God of Corruption?" (I)
"This is not a punishment, the person was able to evolve into a race they shouldn't because of the blessing, losing their ability to evolve can be considered a fair cost, but they only pay that cost if their blessings are withdrawn." (Lilian)
"But something seems contradictory, as far as I know, power is one of the things that most corrupts people, evolving from the great increase in general power, I know that better than anyone as it evolves many times." (I)
"You're right, Father." (Vanessa)
"For you to evolve you need to fulfill certain conditions to show that you deserve to evolve, but the blessing of this God ignores these conditions, this makes the power received not deserved, bone also means that this person's soul and mind are not ready for this evolution." (Vanessa)
"Exactly what makes an ordeal, a person must prove himself worthy of this blessing and make that power his by right evolving through his own efforts next time, unfortunately, most people corrupt before that, so very few accept to use the blessing from the Demon God of Corruption for fear of straying from their ways." (Lilian)
With Lilian and Vanessa's explanation, I was able to understand how this King Alexander became a Vampire, this can also explain how someone who was described so highly in the information I got became a bastard who uses Vampire Slaves, he was corrupted by the power you wanted.
"I imagine that the army that appeared out of nowhere was created using Vampire Slaves, that would make it easier to create a loyal and strong army that followed your orders without fear." (Ivan)
"Probably also used Vampire Slaves to get rid of corrupt Nobles and Merchants." (Ivan)
"You might be right, Ivan." (I)
"My only doubts now are where he got the money to stabilize the Kingdom's economy so quickly and who were the people he turned into Vampire Slaves." (I)
"I don't know any of those answers, as I said before, I wasn't responsible for that investigation at the time." (Lilian)
Sigh
"You know what, let's not waste our time thinking about it, to be honest, I don't care where the money came from or who this bastard's victims were, all we wanted was to confirm the Vampire's identity to go after him, now we know." (I)
"We also know where he is, now let's think about how we do things from now on." (I)
----------
Current King of Kadra Pov:
Royal Castle, over a week ago.
Since I became King I have managed to keep the peace that my Father worked so hard to achieve, our Kingdom has prospered for years, in addition, our people have a lot of respect for our family due to everything my father has achieved in the past.
My father always taught me that I needed to defend our Kingdom to the best of my ability and I have done so to this day.
Even though my father is no longer the King, I always look to him for advice when I get lost in what to do, besides the secret troops and the Royal Guard of our Kingdom only obey my father for being the Patriarch of his line, I am just a Dhampir, I never wanted to become a Vampire because I'm proud of what I am.
Today I was resting in the garden after a long meeting with the most influential traders in the Kingdom, I was discussing possible changes in imports and export to improve the Kingdom's economy when my father passed by me absentmindedly without noticing me.
I've never seen him like this, he usually notices anyone tens of meters away from him, but this time he seemed distracted and lost in his thoughts, I can even see a glint of fear in his eyes.
As we are inside the castle neither he nor I need guards escorting us and we have more freedom to walk alone, because of that there is no one else around except for some soldiers who are always patrolling the castle for safety.
"Dad, what happened to leave you in this state?" (I)
"Huh!?" (Father)
"Sorry son, I hadn't noticed you, nothing much happened, I just received some worrying news from a subordinate who is in another city." (Father)
"It must be something serious to leave you in this state." (I)
"Don't worry, as long as he follows my orders the matter will be resolved, have I ever had a problem that I wasn't able to resolve?" (Father)
"Come with your old father, I want to see my new granddaughter who will soon have her fourth birthday..." (Father)
"But what is this..." (I)
My dad even though he's so old he still looks younger than me, he's bald with half his face burnt, he has two big white twisted horns, blue skin like mine, he only has one red eye as he lost the other when half of his face was burned by a Mage's attack before he became a Vampire.
I was talking to him when we saw a red glow coming at high speed from the sky towards us, the Mages activate the castle's defenses and barriers, but the red light goes through everything, and a brave soldier throws himself in front of us to defend, but the light passes through the guard's body without doing anything to him.
"HAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!" (Father)
It all happened too fast for me to understand, all I saw was my father jumping and running, but the light went after him and hit him, but there was no explosion or noise, but the expression on my father's face was horror before he screamed and start squirming on the floor.
"CALL THE WIZARDS AND DOCTORS NOW!!!!" (I)
