Is Chapter 607, "Temperance," related to the Church of the Night?
Inside the mansion of the vampire family, the Audra family.
Emlyn sat on the sofa in the living room, waiting, a wooden crate standing at his feet. His face showed a mixture of anticipation and nervousness.
Not long after, the person he was looking for appeared.
"Good evening, Your Excellency Baron."
Emlyn stood up and greeted Casimi Odra as he entered.
This was a man who appeared to be middle-aged, but was actually over two hundred years old. Although his strength was that of a vampire baron, equivalent to a Sequence 6 potions professor, his family had a deep foundation, and an elder from the Fourth Age was still alive.
That is why their family is qualified to organize this event.
"Um.
'
Kasimmi saw Emlin and was about to speak when he suddenly frowned. Then, his nostrils flared slightly as he looked at the box at Emlin's feet, as if he had smelled something.
"The smell of fresh blood..."
As a vampire, Kasimi was naturally quite sensitive to the smell of blood. After a moment of confusion, he seemed to understand something, looked up at Emlyn, and asked, "You hunted down a target?"
"Cough..."
Emlyn couldn't help but smile upon hearing this, but he managed to suppress it and said in a very calm tone, "Yes."
He bent down and lifted the lid of the wooden box, revealing its contents. Several layers of old newspapers lined the bottom of the box, absorbing the seeping blood. On top of the newspapers lay two things: a blood-stained human head and a strange object resembling a translucent heart.
The mind of a follower of the "Primordial Moon," and the characteristics he exudes!
"this..."
Kasimi was surprised, but the appearance of the believer's head matched the description, and the corresponding extraordinary characteristics could not be faked... This guy, who was considered mentally unstable and obsessed with dolls, had actually killed a target!
"Is something wrong?"
Seeing the other party's reaction, Emlyn felt very pleased and even asked a question on purpose.
Everything is thanks to Mr. Temperance for providing the information.
"...No, you did very well, I'm sure that's one of the goals." Kasimi quickly composed himself and said in a deep voice, "I'll keep track of your progress...So far, there are still two goals left."
Before that, Ruth Bathory and another vampire had each hunted a target, and Emlyn had caught up with them.
"That's good."
Emlyn laughed.
He closed the lid, stood up, and prepared to exchange a few pleasantries before leaving.
Just then, Kasimi seemed to remember something, and his expression became slightly more serious.
"By the way, you'd better be careful these days," he said. "The elite Night Watchers of the Church of the Night have been targeting us recently, and Gulard Dover and Ruth Bathory have already been arrested by them."
Emlyn's smile froze.
"Why are they being arrested?"
He asked somewhat guiltily.
"It's related to recent events."
Kasimi looked quite troubled, probably having been bothered by this matter for the past few days. "Red Gloves" wanted clues from our vampire clan about followers of "Primal Moon," and after we brushed them off, they started forcibly arresting people, claiming it was illegal... They're practically robbers!
Well...
Emlyn wore a stiff smile, but his mind was racing with a multitude of thoughts.
The night watchman, wearing red gloves?
Mr. Temperance had previously said he would help me deal with other competitors, but I never expected it would be through the Church of the Goddess of Night! As the "King of Blood" on the sea, how was he able to speak to the Church of Backlund and even mobilize the elite Red Gloves squad...? How did he manage that?
Emlyn was quite shocked, but fortunately, Kasimi on the other side was complaining and didn't seem to notice his abnormality.
"I do not understand."
Kasimi continued, "Our vampires have been infiltrating so well, how did the authorities discover those people?"
'
I absolutely mustn't let him know that I was the one who leaked the other people's addresses and information.
Emlyn forced a smile. "Maybe they've been investigating in secret all along, and this is just an excuse for them to make their move now."
"What you're saying sounds plausible."
Kasimi frowned and said, "In short, be extra careful when you go out during this time. If you are really surrounded and can't escape, don't resist fiercely. The family will find a way to get you out. I still need to appeal to the Church of the Night... I won't see you off."
"OK."
Emlyn tried to keep his expression natural, bowed slightly, left the wooden crate at Casimi Audra's house, and left alone.
After returning home, Emlyn locked himself in his room, a growing sense of unease creeping into his heart.
Was what I did really right?
I never imagined that Temperance was connected to the Church of the Night. My choice led to my compatriots being imprisoned by the official Beyonders... But Ruth Bathory deserved it... However, the thought of him being locked up in the church like I was back then makes me want to laugh a little.
"brush!"
Just as Emlyn was caught up in a mix of emotions, a large cloud of gray fog suddenly appeared before his eyes.
From the depths of the gray fog came the voice of [Temperance]: "Honorable Fool, please tell [The Moon] that I have obtained information from another vampire... He can obtain an item that can attract the followers of the Primal Moon through a sacrificial ritual..."
Is there a new lead?
Emlyn was overjoyed and immediately put aside the slight guilt he felt deep inside.
"Dear Mr. Fool, please tell Temperance that I am ready."
He bowed his head and prayed.
Actually, thinking about so many things is meaningless. It was all arranged by the progenitor. He entrusted me with the task of protecting the vampires. How can I fulfill his mission if I don't improve myself?
Emlyn said to himself.
"Caution: This item is extremely dangerous. Please do not touch it."
As Lu Ze sacrificed the strange doll, he also gave a special instruction: "If you encounter anything strange, remember to pray to Mr. Fool."
After doing all that, he picked up the lemonade from the bar and took a sip, but quickly frowned.
The lemon slices had been soaking for a while, and their bitterness gradually began to emerge.
"Another one, please."
He said to the bartender.
Upon hearing this, the latter immediately turned around, took out the equipment, and began to prepare the medicine for him.
The bustling bar was filled with noise, but no one paid any attention to him, not even when he had just performed a sacrificial ceremony in public.
Luze was waiting for his drink when he suddenly saw Leonard walk in from the doorway, looking around as if searching for something.
"Knock knock".
He tapped the table, and Leonard noticed him, quickly walking over as if he had something to report.
