The Accidental Vampire

Atlas sat on the bed, waiting for an explanation. There was only silence in the room.

Luna sat on the bed near Atlas, leaving the explanation task on Lilith. Even though she should also explain, she wanted Atlas to hear from Lilith since he trusted her more.

Lilith, on the other hand, stood near the window, gazing out at the moon.

"It\'s all happening so fast," she muttered in a barely audible voice as if she was talking to herself.

"What is happening?" Atlas asked, being able to hear her even though she spoke in such a low voice.

"The Solace Empire..." Lilith frowned. "I didn\'t think you would need to know about them since I didn\'t expect their involvement before Castiel was actually back. There was no threat to you because of that. Who knew that even a moment of his presence here was going to be enough to attract their attention."

"Solace Empire? Another Enemy?" Atlas asked. "Is there really a need to be so scared of them?"

Lilith nodded. "There will always be a need to be concerned about them since they were the ones that led to what happened in the past..."

"The girl that is sitting beside you... If I were to blame anyone for what led to all this, it would be here. She is the reason the Solace Empire came into our life," she stated. "Even though I don\'t think it was intentional for her."

Atlas observed Luna. So she was actually that old? Even though she looked to be in her mid twenties, if she was there before Castiel went to sleep, then she was almost as old as Lilith, if not older.

The woman looked like any normal human. It was surprising that it led to something that could threaten even the Progenitors.

"Who is she?" he asked. If she led to all this, then her identity couldn\'t be ordinary. No matter how she looked, she definitely couldn\'t be human.

"She is Luna Ashtrall, the Eldest Princess of Solace Empire," Lilith answered. "And she isn\'t from earth."

"It happened in a time where all Progenitors were roaming freely. A balance was established in the world where the Progenitors and the Kingdom of Wolves were said to be much higher in the hierarchy than anyone else."

"There was no one who could threaten us or our life. The world had come to a standstill. If I could say everything was almost perfect at that time. There were no wars between the Supernaturals. And even the Progenitors had stopped fighting. It was something akin to a time of peace, with only a few minor skirmishes here and there."

"I still remember the time when Castiel was training Vor in the forest where the Banished Wolves resided. He suddenly stopped the battle, hearing some strange noises of battle in another place. The Werewolves also stopped."

"It was their forest where no one else was supposed to be in, without their permission. Vor, Castiel, and I went to check who was fighting there. And that\'s where we first saw Luna..."

"She was fighting a group of three, but the group of three didn\'t look like they were trying to hurt her. They were seemingly trying to restrain her without hurting her."

Somewhere in the past~

Castiel stood with his arms folded as if he was slightly amazed at the battle that was taking place before him, in which only one person was attacking with the intent of taking life... It was the blue haired girl who didn\'t hold back on her attacks.

"Her strength... It\'s not normal for a human. Her strength and her reflexes appeared to be boosted, but I can\'t feel any spell residue." Lilith frowned, focusing on the battle.

"That\'s because no spell has been used," Castiel smiled. "She isn\'t a Witch..."

"Then how is she able to use such boosts? She isn\'t a Vampire or a Werewolf either," Lilith wondered.

"Who knows. It\'s my first time seeing something like this as well. At this point, only she can answer."

"Should we jump in to help her?" Vor asked. Generally, he would\'ve jumped in to kill anyone who entered his forest, but at this point, he showed some restraint since he could see that Castiel and Lilith had some interest in these people. That\'s why, instead of killing them all, he asked if he should help the woman.

The other Wolves also started arriving, surrounding the battlefield from all sides, but none of them jumped in. They just kept an eye on the battle.

"No need. I want to watch a little more." Castiel refused Vor\'s suggestion which made Vor gesture his pack to stay back and ready.

Luna and the people who were fighting her also noticed that there were people who were spying on her. Unfortunately, none of them could afford to take time out of their battle if they didn\'t want to lose.

The three warriors seemingly had an advantage, even when they held back on their attacks to not harm Luna.

Luna kept being forced back as the attacks intensified. If it was just one, she could\'ve fought back easily, but with three... It was hard since she hadn\'t trained that much, unlike them.

The battle that lasted for around half an hour ended up with Luna\'s weapon flying off, falling near Castiel\'s feet.

One of the three Warriors placed a Sword on Luna\'s neck. Another warrior tied her hand. As for the third warrior, he kept an eye on the surroundings, at all the Wolves.

Now that the battle was finally over, Castiel finally decided to get involved. Even though it wasn\'t his own conflict, he was really curious. He was also a fearless person who did as his heart pleased.

"May I ask who you are all?" he asked.

The three Warriors didn\'t answer. It was as if talking to Castiel wasn\'t worth their time.

They just looked at Castiel and the Wolves as if they found them disgusting creatures.

"Well, that didn\'t go well." Castiel smiled wryly. "Let me try asking again."

However, this time, he didn\'t ask like before. He clenched his fist. A formation circle appeared under the feet of all the warriors. Thick vines came out of the formation, wrapping themselves around the three warriors, tying their arms and legs.

"I\'ll repeat. Who you are? And what you\'re doing here?" he asked as a powerful gravity acted on the three warriors, forcing them to their knees.

"Child, you don\'t know what you\'re doing! Don\'t make us get serious!" The three Warriors exclaimed at the same time.

"How can I know what your seriousness is capable of if you don\'t tell me who you are?" Castiel asked, tilting his head to the right, as if slightly amused.
