Chapter 536: City Of Vampires

It's been a day since we left the City of Stars, I enjoyed my time there pleasantly, at least when I wasn't being chased.

After we left there in our big carriage, we all entered the Dungeon and held a meeting to decide our next stop.

We decided to go to the Vampire City they talked about earlier, I was a little interested in what a city full of immortal people would be like.

Now I was inside the carriage with Lilian, who was driving the carriage was a Werewolf.

"I wanted to know more about this town we're heading to, could you tell me a little bit about this town?" (I)

"Of course, its name is City of Blood, that name isn't just because it's a city for Vampires." (Lilian)

"The city was built on a land sanctified by a Saint of the Goddess Selene millennia ago, there are stories that it had been the site of a brutal and bloody war." (Lilian)

"If there is such a story, then why build a city in such a place?" (I)

"Because no Vampire can be harmed by the light of the Suns in the city, in addition, their hunger also becomes less." (Lilian)

"For this reason, the Vampires chose that place to set up their city, the city has a Queen, a Vampire Matriarch who was the founder of this city, she is also the oldest Vampire in the Dark Continent." (Lilian)

"Wouldn't she be one of those Vampires who hate the Blood Goddess?" (I)

"No, she is not devoted to any God, nor is she against it, one of the reasons she maintains her neutrality is to mediate between the factions of the city that split into three." (Lilian)

"The factions are the ones you already know, the neutral faction, the Demonic faction, and the Human faction." (Lilian)

"The Human faction would be the people of the Black Market." (I)

"Mostly yes, but there are also those who are against the Demonic faction." (Lilian)

"Those from the neutral faction are just Devotees of the Goddess Selene, not people who actually belong to the Temple of Blood like Priestess Vanessa." (Lilian)

"Because of that the roads to this city are always full of bandits, our carriage must look like an easy and juicy target for them." (Lilian)

"I see, our carriage is alone without being part of a caravan and without any escort." (I)

"Don't forget that this carriage is very big, it attracts attention anywhere, the bandits must think there is something of great value in here." (Lilian)

To me these bandits are idiots, they could realize that there are many suspicious things if they think for 1 second, such a big carriage alone in such a place is too good to be true, does that mean it would be a trap to attract bandits or are there people secure in their own strength within the carriage.

"They're idiots..." (I)

"If they were smart or capable at something, then they wouldn't become bandits, they're usually poor people or incapable Adventurers." (Lilian)

"Let's get back to the matter at hand, you were telling me more about the City of Blood, tell me more about the city." (I)

"The city was built with only one purpose, fun." (Lilian)

"Vampires live for a long time, most of them don't seek strength, they seek profit, Influence, and authority to live safer and more luxurious lives, but this usually only happens to Vampire Patriarchs or Matriarchs as they can build their own families. " (Lilian)

"By the way, everyone who is a Vampire Patriarch or Matriarch is considered Noble in the City of Blood." (Lilian)

"Including me, you, Elsaris, and Vanessa?" (I)

"Yea." (Lilian)

"As politics works like that, it looks like it's going to be chaos." (I)

"Politics is not focused on the Nobles, there is the Queen at the top of politics, then comes the 4 elders of the Council, 3 of these elders are representatives and leaders of the city factions, the last elder is a representative of the other races in the city that are not are Vampires." (Lilian)

An interesting government system, with this 5 in charge they can maintain a balance of power between the factions while not leaving the other races aside, in addition, the government officials mostly must be members of the Vampire families of these people at the top of government, this would make it difficult for one side to go against the other openly.

"(I'm a little interested in this city.)" (I)
