Under the night sky, the two armies charged at each other. Their footsteps shook the ground like an earthquake. Ethan, Xavier, and Alicia led the Ice Fair and Pen town armies, while three armored knights led the Flamefair army instead of Duke Avon. Unmasked hostility and bloodlust filled the air. The army of Duke Avon glared at Xavier, Ethan, and Alicia. Each of them terrified the soldiers but with Duke Avon behind them, they showed nothing but battle lust in their eyes. Finally, they found an outlet for their boiling battle lust. When the two armies were just a short distance from each other, Xavier roared.

"Show no mercy!"

The entire army behind him roared in unison. With Ethan and Xavier leading the army, the soldiers fearlessly charged toward the Flamefair army. Arch energy gushed out of the soldiers' bodies, amplifying their strengths beyond typical human limits. Each of them gripped their golden spears tightly to clash against the Flamefair army without regard for their lives. The two armies collided. The sound of iron striking iron reverberated as armored knights' swords and spears struck against each other. Sparks flew, and blood filled the air as the two opposing foes broke into a melee. The Flamefair army broke out, fighting like savages. Both armies were fearless as they swung their weapons left and right. Alicia also roared and hacked every enemy in her path without a shred of mercy.

The Flamefair soldiers were Alicia's outlet for her buried anger. She used her spear to stab a couple of soldiers simultaneously and her other hand to send cold spikes left and right. Due to the sound of iron clashing, no one could hear the spells she was casting. While Alicia was slaughtering the Flamefair army, Ethan and Xavier wreaked havoc on the other side. To Xavier's surprise, Ethan fought like a demon incarnate. Riding the black horse, Ethan looked more Demon than Xavier. Unlike Alicia, Ethan did not cast any spells. He just used his sheer strength to slash and dash the enemies with his long sword.

However, the Flamefair soldiers weren't powerless either. In fact, they surprised Xavier himself. While Alicia and Ethan were killing the soldiers effortlessly, Xavier's personal army struggled against the Flamefair soldiers, especially the three armored commanders. Coupled with the secret potion, Duke Avon mixed in their meals, the decades of training and experience made the Flamefair army stand their ground against Xavier's army.

"Demonic ice rain!" Alicia roared in a deep hate-filled voice. Many Flamefair soldiers intuitively brought their weapons above shield themselves. Soon, a large glowing chakra lit the battleground beneath. Those who were in the spotlight felt the temperature drop by several degrees. Their skin went numb to the coldness. A split second later, the chakra shot countless ice spikes from above. Hundreds of ice spikes rained down upon them with enough force to impale everyone below.

Some of them got lucky when the mages of the Flamefair army cast a barrier around the soldiers. Upon colliding with the golden dome around the army, the ice spikes exploded into bits and pieces of ice. When the chakra faded away, the archers of Duke Alverin released their arrows. They lit the arrows with flame before firing. In mid-air, they resembled a swarm of fireflies. Both armies quickly cast whatever defense spell they could, and those who held shields raised them above their heads. Spells and arrows weren't sentient to know who was friendly and who was the enemy.

In a few minutes, hundreds of soldiers were either killed or lost their limbs in the clash. All of it was because of one man's ego, Duke Avon.

"The Duke is mine!" Alicia roared as her voice reverberated throughout the entire battlefield.

"STOP!' Xavier tried to stop Alicia, but the loud explosion sounded from the beast made his shout inaudible. Moving forward, Alicia raised her hand, firing a stream of ice from her palm. The weaker soldiers who were in the ice stream's path immediately turned into statues. Her ice stream cut open a path in the army as she shot toward the Duke.

"Where are you going?!" a murderous shout was heard when Xavier tried to follow Alicia. His battle instincts kicked in as he blocked the long axe with his sword. His hand went numb. Soon, the three armored commanders surrounded Xavier. Looking at this from quite far from Xavier, Ethan plunged his spear into the ground with enough force to create a strong shock wave. For the first time, Ethan cast this shock wave since the start of his battle. Everyone in a three-meter radius around Ethan was sent flying. He leaped into the air, preparing himself to shoot toward Xavier.

"Go to her," Xavier amplified his voice with arch energy. His words sounded in Ethan's head like a bell, clear and loud. On a battlefield, even a split-second hesitation would cost a life. Ethan knew this. For instance, if Ethan hesitated even for a second to follow Xavier's order, either he or Alicia would be killed. A veteran commander like Xavier would not die to three unnamed commanders. Hence, Ethan obeyed his order by flying in Alicia's direction as fast as he could.

Seeing Ethan's trajectory toward their lord, the mages hovering in the air immediately cast several spells to stop Ethan from reaching the duke. Ethan flew like an arrow shot from a bow. However, he quickly halted when he saw a beam of blue energy heading toward him. Intuitively, Ethan swayed his body to the side, avoiding the energy beam just by a few inches. Without giving Ethan any more time, another mage fired a long thick arrow made of fire in Ethan's direction from above. Ethan swayed left and right, avoiding the spell. But his bad luck, he kept getting bombarded by the mages above him.

While Ethan was facing the mages, Alicia finally reached the duke who stood way behind his army, close enough to see the battlefield but far enough from the archers and the beast. In stark contrast to his normal crimson-red attire, Duke Avon wore dark robes from head to toe. He even covered his head with a cloak. When Alicia went passed the mages and the army, she saw Duke Avon standing alone without any personnel guards. His eyes glimmered like a cat in the darkness.

"Face me like a man," Alicia slowly stepped towards Duke. Her sword dangled around her waist until she unsheathed it. She held the golden spear in one hand and the sword in the other. Although she couldn't see Duke Avon's cultivation stage, she didn't fear him at all. She completely ignored that Duke Avon singlehandedly stopped the beast's cannonball. Hearing her murderous tone, Duke Avon remained calm.

He did not indulge her in a conversation. Instead, Duke Avon looked up at the moonless sky. He could feel the darkness powering him up. New sensations caused his mind to be bewildered. The power of being a vampire really mesmerized him. Before turning into an elder vampire, he had never thought he could hear someone's heartbeat so clearly from a distance. At this moment, Avon could see the world from a different perspective. For instance, Avon could see the energy radiation around Alicia. It was evident to him that Alicia was weaker than him.

To Avon's surprise, only two people on the entire battlefield who could fight him head to head, Xavier and Ethan. As Alicia got closer to Avon, he could smell the sweet fragrance of blood. Immediately, his stomach growled. This strange feeling of hunger was new to Avon. Previously if he had seen a beauty like Alicia, his mind would have created sexual thoughts. But now, he only wanted to feast on her blood. As a human, he knew drinking blood was animalistic or even forbidden. Still, his urge to suck her dry was too strong to resist. Under his dark cloak, the two fangs slowly grew to the point they stuck out of his mouth.

Due to the darkness and his cloak, Alicia couldn't see the changes on his face. If she could, she would have seen the evil grin on Avon's face.

"I will end this pointless war once and for all," Alicia halted her steps from a couple of meters away from Avon.

"By killing you," The area turned colder as a white mist surrounded the two. By learning only icy spells, Alicia became closer to controlling the coldness in the area. However, she wasn't a god-like Michael or Noah. Otherwise, she could have controlled the element itself.

"You are the bitch who follows that Winston boy everywhere," Duke Avon amused.

"He collects beauties like trophies, doesn't he?" Avon questioned Alicia.

Alicia didn't show any emotion on her face. However, she was boiling in rage inside. It took great control to stop herself from ripping him apart.

"How many other bitches are there in his harem?" asked Avon with a chuckle. The more he riled up Alicia, the stronger the scent of her blood became. He couldn't wait to get her blood to boil to the maximum so he couldn't have a nice delicious feast.

Blood of a virgin. It was a rare delicacy for the vampires. He was no exception, even though he was only a vampire for a day.

"After tasting you, I am going to feast on every single one in your family," said Avon. After hearing Avon's last words, Alicia couldn't hold back her anger. She leaped at Avon with immense killing intent. Her entire body radiated a chill that would turn any typical man into an icy statue.

With deadly speed, she pushed the spear in her hand toward Avon's heart. Avon did not even move an inch. Instead, he waited till the last moment to sway his body to the side and threw his fist at Alicia's gut. Duke Avon's speed and movement caught Alicia off guard. Before she could swing her sword to block his fist, she felt a sharp pain in her gut. The force of Avon's punch sent Alicia flying several meters back.

Alicia coughed up a couple of times as Duke Avon grinned under the dark hood.

"I am going to enjoy this," amused Duke Avon.
