"Ladies and gentlemen, let us extend a warm welcome to our two special guests: The Black Blood Witch and The Gorgon Maiden,"
As the announcement reverberated through the hall, the crowd's anticipation peaked.
In the ensuing silence, two enigmatic figures emerged, their identities concealed behind intricate masks. With each step they took, their black gowns billowed gracefully, their every movement exuding an air of ethereal elegance.
The exquisite designs on their garments dazzled the onlookers, intricate patterns weaving a tapestry of beauty. The masks they wore added an intriguing layer of mystery, intensifying the curiosity surrounding their true identities.
But it was not just their attire that captivated the attention of everyone. The presence they emanated, an aura of power , was really strong. The whispers of their strength, circulated swiftly through the gathering, emphasizing the magnitude of their power.
A realization settled among the attendees: this gathering was far more than a simple meeting or party. The individuals present tonight possessed abilities that could rival and even surpass the might of a small nation. It became evident that Evangeline had not assembled this extraordinary group merely for social purposes.
The air was charged with an unspoken understanding that the Rank S individuals in attendance were intentionally showcasing their power. It was as if they were collectively reminding everyone of the immense strength and influence their organization wielded, sending a clear message that they have this much strength in their disposal.
"Wait... Do you think Miss Evangeline is planning to wage a war?" Nathan whispered to William, his voice filled with concern and uncertainty. The events of the evening, the gathering of powerful individuals, and the display of their might had sparked a worrisome thought in his mind. He was still a human after all.
William took a moment to contemplate Nathan's words, his gaze shifting among the formidable figures gathered in the hall. He recognized the weight behind his student question, the possibility of war was really high.
"It's difficult to say for certain, Kid. But knowing Evangeline, she always has a grand plan in motion. We must remain vigilant and ready for whatever may lie ahead."
"I understand Master William. I hope I can at least see Vincent. I missed my buddy, and I want to show him the progress I've made," Nathan smiled.
"I'm sure you'll have the chance to meet him soon, but I don't think you realize just how powerful your best friend has become," William replied, his tone carrying a touch of caution.
"He has undergone remarkable growth, kid. His power has surged to astonishing levels. There is no doubt that he is now one of the strongest individuals in the planet."
"WOW... I didn't realize he had already become that powerful," Nathan's chuckle revealed a sense of surprise and admiration for his best friend's progress. He was really happy to hear all about his achievements.
"I suppose I have a lot to catch up on." he smiled .
"That's the spirit, kid. It's a good mindset to have. If you wish to stand by his side in the future, you must continue to grow stronger. Use his progress as motivation to push yourself further and unlock your true potential." William patted him in the back.
Creak, creak, creak.
The distinct sound of a wheelchair being pushed reverberated through the room, capturing the attention of every individual present. All eyes turned towards the source of the noise, and in that moment, the atmosphere grew heavy with anticipation.
The woman they had all been waiting for, the mastermind behind this gathering, had finally made her appearance.
Evangeline, seated in the wheelchair, was being pushed by none other than Vincent, flanked by Erika by his side.
As their eyes fell upon him, a collective gasp escaped the crowd.
The transformation he had undergone was unbelievable. His once striking black hair and eyes had turned even darker . The sheer power emanating from him was overwhelming, it sent waves of fear and unease through everyone present, even those who held the esteemed Rank S status. The intensity of his gaze seemed to penetrate their very souls, leaving them with an instinctive urge to withdraw and retreat. .
Whispers of disbelief and awe spread like wildfire, mingling with a palpable sense of trepidation. Evangeline, the leader, and Vincent, her right-hand man, had showcased a level of power that shook the very foundations of their organization.
"Thank you all for being here tonight," Evangeline's voice resonated throughout the hall, cutting through the tense atmosphere. Her words carried a mixture of gratitude and authority, commanding the attention of everyone present.
"You have all remained loyal to me throughout the years, supporting me through thick and thin,"
"Your dedication and unwavering allegiance have not gone unnoticed. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you. Your loyalty has been the foundation of our strength."
A wave of acknowledgement and appreciation rippled through the crowd. The vampires in attendance understood the significance of Evangeline's words. It was a recognition of their commitment and devotion, as well as a testament to the unbreakable bonds that bound them together.
"Tonight, we stand united, stronger than ever before," she declared, her voice brimming with conviction.
"From this very hall, we shall soon emerge. No longer shall we hide in the shadows. The time for walking in secrecy is gone," Evangeline proclaimed, her voice resonating with unwavering determination.
Her gaze then shifted to Vincent, the embodiment of power and strength in her heart.
"The man standing behind me, he shall lead us to greater heights. His strength, his overwhelming power, and his unmatched capabilities will guide our family forward!."
Her declaration was shocking, causing everyone to pause and contemplate its implications.
Below, among the attendees, a diverse range of opinions emerged, some expressing negativity while others held a more positive outlook. However, amidst the divided opinions, Evangeline remained calm and composed. She had already formulated a well-thought-out plan to bring about order and restore balance to the situation.
"Domain," Vincent muttered under his breath, and in an instant, the entire gathering was transported to a vast and frozen landscape. The land stretched out before them, covered in ice as far as the eye could see. Amidst the frozen expanse, a magnificent ice castle stood tall, its grandeur captivating all who beheld it.
Gasps of awe and disbelief filled the air as the realization dawned on the attendees.
"That's Earth! We are in the moon!" exclaimed one of the mid-ranking vampires, his voice filled with astonishment.
The scope and power of Vincent domain left everyone in a state of shock. It had transformed from a simple realm of influence to a self-contained world of its own. The sheer scale and intricacy of this miniature realm showcased the extent of his dominion over his domain.
"Bow before your new Leader," Evangeline's commanding voice resounded. She would not take no for an answer, and everyone present was well aware of it.
As if compelled by an invisible force, the crowd slowly, yet resolutely, lowered their heads in a collective display of respect.
The act symbolized their acceptance and recognition of Vincent's authority, a pivotal moment in the history of their organization.
"From this moment onward, we shall be known as the Moonlight Sanctuary," Evangeline declared, her voice filled with conviction.
