The Accidental Vampire

"In any case, she doesn\'t need to come with us to the castle here. She won\'t have to go through it again. I\'ll go alone and find the key."

Lilith understood why Atlas wasn\'t happy with returning back to this place, but for her it was important as this place was specifically marked in the map.

Moreover, she had already told the carriage driver to stop at the foot of the mountain, from where she was going to go alone as she also didn\'t want Misella to come with her. That place wasn\'t right for her.

Atlas looked at the small map which appeared to be hand drawn for the most part. He let out a sigh. Since this was what Castiel wanted, he decided to go along with it as well. They could leave Misella with Vor and Lancaster for some time. As she was meditating, it was better to not wake her up as well.

"I\'ll come with you as well. I also want to see..." Atlas responded. Since Lilith was going back, he also wanted to go there to see just what was actually there. The last time they left the castle, they had destroyed everything. At most, the underground basements were left safe however that was probably where the key was also hidden from what he understood.

"Are you sure?\' Lilith asked, making sure. Just like Misella had bad memories attached to that place, Atlas had the same. "I think it\'s better if I go alone."

"There\'s no need. Moreover with me helping you, it\'ll be easier for you as well," Atlas replied.

The carriage reached closer to the mountain, on top of which the Severis Castle was established. Just as Lilith had instructed, the driver stopped the carriage at the foot of the mountain and informed them that they were there.

Atlas opened the door and stepped out first as he was sitting near the door. But before leaving he didn\'t forget to wake up Vor and tell him to protect Misella and the others until he was back.

Vor asked him where he was going, but Atlas just vaguely answered that he was going to retrieve a key and that he could be back within half an hour at most.

Luna also wanted to come with them, but after Lilith\'s strict rejection, Luna had to stay behind as she allowed a path for Lilith to leave.

Lilith stepped out of the Carriage and left the place in the direction of the Severis Castle with Atlas.

Lilith cast a flight spell on Atlas and on herself as both of them started flying up the mountain. Within a few minutes, both of them managed to reach the top of the small mountain.

As Atlas reached the top of the mountain, he was slightly surprised. The castle that they had destroyed looked intact. There were some differences though. It was clear that the top floors of the towers were made again.

However, no one seemed to be inside the Tower, making this place look like it was abandoned despite being near completion.

The place looked the same yet different. They had reused most of the materials from before.

This was the place where he had promised himself that he was going to kill Severis and Carlisle one day, and this was also the place where the story of his life began. Fortunately he was able to keep his promise to himself. He was able to give a really gruesome death to the two Vampire Lords that played with his life.

If only the two Vampire Lords knew that their actions were going to create someone who was not only going to kill them by destroying the entire Blood Council, they wouldn\'t even think about doing something like this. Their actions created something that they really regretted even in their last moment.

At start, they were like the kings of their World, who couldn\'t be defeated by anyone. But just one human boy brought their Kingdom crumbling down like a pack of cards.

Lilith opened the door of the Castle and stepped inside. Atlas entered right behind her.

"So where should we start?" he asked. "Back in the basement?"

"Yeah. I don\'t think he would keep any key outside. We should check in the cell where he went to sleep."

Lilith walked to the stairs. Even though the Castle was recreated, the basic plan of the castle was still the same. Everything was made the way it used to be which made it quite easy for them to navigate through the castle.

Atlas and Lilith went down the stairs to end up on the underground floor where Atlas and the others used to be kept. As expected, it seemed just like before as if this was the only place which didn\'t need to be remade.

Lilith kept going down and reached the floor which was under the ground floor. After a moment of pause, Atlas also followed behind her.

The two of them reached the floor which only consisted of prison cells everywhere. Since Atlas already knew where Lilith was going, he didn\'t need to follow her. He walked right beside her. Along the way, they saw some bodies which belonged to the guards that Atlas had killed when he was trying to escape.

It seemed no one came here to pick up the bodies, which wasn\'t surprising since the entire place seemed to be abandoned.

The two stopped before the cell near the end in which Atlas was kept. Atlas opened the door of the cell. He could still see the trails of blood which belonged to him. His blood had dried up by now.

"My blood used to be so cheap before," Atlas muttered, looking at his blood everywhere.

He walked to the wall in the end and pressed the secret trigger which had opened the secret pathway last time.

The wall slid down, creating a new opening once again.

Through the opening, Atlas was able to see more bodies, belonging to the ones that he had tossed down. The lifeless bodies were still there.
