BXBX NOVEL Chapter 397 Offer
Victoria didn’t move away as she leaned against Dilan, who had pulled her back.
The trouble around her turned negligible and she began to smile foolishly as she looked lovingly at Dilan.
Meanwhile, the Alpha Lord jumped backward. Dilan’s sudden arrival astonished the Alpha Lord, who eyed the young human for a few seconds.
“Are you the lover of the Old Vampire Lord’s daughter? That’s quite disappointing!” The Alpha Lord couldn’t help but say that he didn’t perceive much of a threat from Dilan.
Dilan didn’t answer his question and he merely smiled lightly as he kept staring right at the Alpha Lord’s crimson eyes.
There was a glint of provocation in Dilan’s eyes, which the Alpha Lord realized quite quickly.
He moved instinctively and punched the young-looking human. His strength was more than enough to make most Tier-2 monsters fear him.
Thus, the Vampire Lord began to smile devilishly as he imagined that Dilan’s chest would burst open the moment his large fist impacted on the human.
However, Dilan didn’t intend to move away or block the attack. He merely smiled as he moved Victoria and her female Hybrid subordinate behind himself.
This didn’t require much strength but his motions were smooth and done with an air of confidence. After he ensured that the two girls were safe, he noticed that the fist of the Alpha Lord was right in front of him but despite that Dilan didn’t move.
He merely smiled as he allowed the fist to impact on him with all its might. The moment his fist collided with Dilan’s chest, Dilan felt the Alpha Lord’s power spreading through his entire body traveling down his legs like a bolt of lightning had struck him.
The ground below him burst open and soil was flung through the surrounding area, but Dilan remained standing as if he didn’t even feel anything.
“Is that everything? Can we go now, or do you want to humiliate yourself even further?” Dilan asked with an indifferent voice while he enjoyed the shocked expression of the Alpha Lord.
There was no reason for Dilan to avoid the Alpha Lord but he gave him a single chance to prevent facing miserable injuries and mockery.
And that was only because Dilan was quite tired after staying awake for 72 hours to fight nonstop, after advancing to the second Tier, increasing his stats drastically, and so on.
There were many things that had exhausted him, which was why Dilan wanted to avoid a troublesome encounter.
However, he sensed something at this moment that caused him to frown deeper. If the Alpha Lord had already been a nuisance the sudden being, who appeared in the encirclement of the werewolves was even more troublesome.
It was a rather small, pale-faced man, radiating a terrifyingly powerful charisma that restricted the ordinary Werewolves from moving a single inch.
“Hello everyone. I apologize for interrupting this very important battle of dominion, or whatever it was, but I would like to speak to this gentleman if that is not too much to ask for!” The man almost sounded jovial but his expression was the exact opposite.
His crimson eyes were glowing brightly, his fangs had already shot out and his long silver hair fluttered in the air as his body released bloodlust in an uncontrollable manner.
“Lord Galliard?!?” Both Victoria and the Alpha Lord exclaimed in utter shock. They were baffled to see the new Vampire Lord, Lord Galliard, appearing right next to them.
Many Werewolves were shocked and excited at the same time. If they could kill the Vampire Lord, it would only be a matter of time before they would become the Overlords of the Shikan plains and establish dominion.
Yet, despite knowing that a great chance had unveiled itself in front of everyone, nobody dared to move. The power which the Vampire Lord released was too terrifying. It was not something any Betas or Gammas were capable of handling.
Lord Galliard was not very impressed to see the Werewolves behaving like greedy pups. Even the Alpha Lord’s behavior was not really weird, especially since Lord Galliard was not someone who would act openly unless the situation was dire.
There was a small smile on the face of Lord Galliard as he looked at Dilan with twinkling eyes. He was excited and hoped that Dilan was the person he was looking for.
“If you want to speak with me, do it here and now. I am a little busy,” Dilan responded calmly as he looked at the Vampire Lord. With [Power Appraisal] it was not further difficult for him to determine how powerful the Vampire Lord was, and what he saw was not further troublesome.
Lord Galliard might be the strongest being in Dilan’s surroundings but that was already it. Thus, he smiled calmly as he waited for the Vampire Lord’s reaction.
Lord Galliard’s right eye twitched twice when he heard Dilan’s calmly issued words and many Werewolves, including the Alpha Lord looked at him like he was a madman and wanted to die.
However, Dilan was not really bothered by this.
“If you become my subordinate, I can turn you into the strongest noble Vampire ever!” Lord Galliard announced without further ado.
He could tell that Dilan was not easy to impress, which meant that one had to reveal all the shocking information to him at once to overwhelm the young human and lure him into the trap!
But even then, Dilan didn’t really mind the Vampire Lord’s words that much. Receiving the offer to become a Vampire might be nice for some considering that a Vampire’s survivability in the apocalypse was likely to be higher than that of a human but that didn’t really interest Dilan.
“I don’t intend to become anyone’s follower. Furthermore, I doubt that you have the power to turn me into the strongest noble Vampire, despite your words or rank. If someone can do that, it’s probably only the King of all Vampires.
However, I doubt that I would be interested in the offer even if the King of Vampires were to give it to me. I regard my freedom way too highly, to become someone’s subordinate after all!” Dilan didn’t sound a tiny bit impressed by Lord Galliard’s offer. He looked straight at the Vampire Lord’s and bluntly denied him without a trace of fear.
“Kiddo, you don’t understand what kind of offer I am giving you… I can turn you into a noble Vampire with my Ancient Vampire Powers, and considering that you are already so strong, you would definitely become the strongest… Why would you reject my offer? That makes no sense?!” Lord Galliard seemed to be taken aback by his response and lose his cool a bit after Dilan had rejected his offer immediately the moment he had presented it.
It didn’t make any sense. Why was there a problem with giving up a tiny bit of his freedom in exchange for eternal youth, unimaginable powers, the power to create your own loyal subjects, and an otherworldly powerful regeneration?
All these traits combined with Dilan’s already existing power would elevate his strength immediately and it would turn him into one of the most powerful existences on the Shikan plains, if not Milarn in its entirety!
The Vampire Lord knew that his offer was amazing, but that was even worse for him because Dilan’s rejection hurt his pride.
“Who the hell are you even? Where does your confidence come from?” Dilan asked lightly, while his eyes darted provokingly toward the Vampire lord.
“Who am I? I AM the Overlord of the Shikan plains, the strongest existence you will ever encounter!”
