Chapter 161: The Day of Return

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The visit of the two Ebben werewolves was no small thing to Hao Ren and the rest. Everybody sat around the coffee table, wanting to listen to news from the werewolf Elders. Y’zaks, who had seen the world looked uninterested in it. Lily sat beside Hao Ren and rested her head under Hao Ren’s chin. Such intimacy was not anything special. In fact, her neck was feeling sore and Hao Ren was just massaging her neck to ease the stiffness. Lily was purely asking for help like any husky would.

Bluphlei Ebben took a cup and took a sip of jasmine tea which cost just 30 Yuan a pound. He then licked his lips and said, "The life of a countess is indeed still so simple…"

Vivian was not happy when she heard this. She did not mind if someone said she was poor as she was indeed poor. However, Hao Ren who was taking care of her and it was him who provided the tea. As a well mannered vampire, she had to say something. "At least, you have something to drink. Stop babbling. The condition of your family is not any better too. Also, the landlord prefers this so, mind your own business."

Bluphlei smiled. He put the cup down and said, "I didn’t expect for us to meet under such circumstances. We didn’t hear from you for hundreds of years. We thought you had been ‘purified’ by the demon hunters. Now, it seems that you’re indeed the Countess of the Crimson Moon. You don't die easily. How’ve you been?"

"That sounds so hypocritical," Vivian replied with a cold smile. "Anyway, I’m good. It must be disappointing to know that I’m still alive. And you, such a high-profiled werewolf family, yet to be killed and destroyed. Should I say that the stupid ones live longer? Or is the scourge still alive?"

Sparks of tension could be felt between them from their short exchange and this was after they agreed to have a ‘peaceful negotiation’ in the beginning. It was hard to imagine what it was like when they met under usual circumstances. It seemed that the conflicts between Vivian and the Ebbens went a long way back. God knows why they had such a big disagreement.

Hao Ren got ready to take on the responsibility of fire brigade bravely if they decided to bring out their guns (the game plan was to hold Vivian down and let Y’zaks throw the Ebben brothers out). However, he underestimated the level of self-control the two werewolf Elders had. Blushedt just smiled upon hearing Vivian’s provocative words and said, "A few days ago I heard a youngling mentioned that the Countess of the Crimson Moon appeared in Asia. It caused a turbulence in the whole Ebben Family. After all, you’re kind of a big shot among the creatures. Let bygones be bygones. In this precarious era, it’s always a happy thing to know that there is an old ‘friend’ still living in the world."

"You’re right. Now is not the time to get tangled up in those stupid things." Vivian loosened her eyebrows. Although she still spoke in a cold tone, she looked pretty calm. "Actually, I don’t really remember those things in the past... I don’t remember it, the thing you said about how I caused a great stir. I remember just following my heart... Am I really that famous?"

"You’re still the same as before," Bluphlei said. He then shrugged. "The way you followed your heart was enough to turn people’s lives upside down. Have you forgotten that you almost killed me for a chicken the last time?" said Bluphlei as he pointed to the long scar on his eyebrows. "You could have just told us that you were hungry. Was it necessary to loot the entire werewolf settlement just for a meal? And after knocking everyone down, you really just took the chicken... The way you followed your heart really left all the people trembling in fear, tsk tsk."

Vivian suddenly looked embarrassed. When she received a strange look from Hao Ren, she whispered, "I totally don’t remember... Probably, I didn’t notice anyone around when I was robbing the chicken."

Hao Ren rolled his eyes. How hungry was this sister at that time?

The Ebben brothers and Vivian gossiped about the past like old acquaintances. They probably wanted to create a little peaceful atmosphere this way. However, they soon found that this did not work. Nothing good happened between Vivian and the Ebben Family for the past 1000 years. Recalling those stupid things only made both sides angrier and eventually, they would get into a fight again. Hence, Vivian wisely waved her hands to interrupt before they mentioned something even more annoying and said, "Okay, stop. Let’s talk business. Two of you travelled all the way here, risking the danger of being targeted by demon hunters. You shouldn't be just looking for a fight."

"That’s right. We would like to talk to the oldest Elders of the Blood Clan about the situation now." Bluphlei looked serious now but, he looked around carefully before he continued. Vivian noticed this. She waved her hand and said, "Just say it. Everyone here is more trustworthy than you. And the landlord is the owner of this sanctuary, he should know everything."

"I did not expect to see that the countess has become so easy to get along with." Bluphlei nodded, looked into Vivian's eyes and asked, "I wonder if you’ve received the message regarding ‘The Day of Return’ from your kin?"

Hao Ren’s heart was immediately seized by these words. He sensed that the two werewolves have truly brought them a big secret!

"The Day of Return?" Vivian frowned. "What is that?"

"You don’t know?" Blushedt was surprised. "All the other creatures are in action. As far as we know, even the most insular and conservative small groups in northern Europe have also started taking action. I thought you would have at least received the news. After all, you are one of the Elders in the Blood Clan."

"Stop calling me an elder, I’m still young!" Vivian slammed the coffee table. Then, she crossed her arms and said, "I have not been keeping in touch with other Blood Clan members for a very long time. I’ve been p... busy traveling around the world all these years. I haven't been paying attention to current events. What happened? I heard things about the sirens going ashore from Casar and Ewen. Is it related to that?"

"Indeed." Bluphlei found that Vivian really knew nothing about the ‘The Day of Return’ and spoke with a subtle tone, "The sirens have brought a message from the deep sea. They mentioned that the age of myth, such an exciting event, is about to return. But, only the Elders of each family know the details of the ‘The Day of Return’. Casar and Ewen are just younglings. So, of course they’re not clear about it... But, I didn’t expect you to be kept in the dark as a family member of the Blood Clan…"

"It's best not to think too much," Vivian said slowly and threateningly. "Werewolves should just care about werewolf issues. I don’t have any problems with my people. I just don’t like being around those boring juniors. Now, tell me what’s 'The Day of Return'?"

"'The source of ancient power is awakening and the glorious ancient kingdoms that the extraordinary species once built, are about to reopen. Our glory and strength are coming back, and the incessant weakening of the brutal eagles is the unquestionable omen’. This is a word or two about 'The Day of Return'. It’s directly translated from the old and obscure ancient language of sirens. The interpretation of the meaning is clear." Bluphlei recited the mysterious sounding prophecy in a solemn tone and turned his curious eyes to Nangong Wuyue. "Actually, I wanted to ask this earlier, isn't there a siren here? I thought she would be your messenger…"

"What is the messenger?" Hao Ren asked.

After Blushedt got an affirmative look from Bluphlei, he explained, "It refers to the sirens who came ashore more than 100 years ago. The sirens found communities of the remaining alien races in the world, except those who terminated their journey ‘for a variety of reasons’. Basically, every community had one siren who claimed to be the messenger. The news about 'The Day of Return' was released by them. I thought a sanctuary like yours is at least considered a small community, which is a very special type of community. And this siren is your messenger..."

"Errr, this place was actually just set up not too long ago." Hao Ren scratched his head and explained, "As for Nangong Wuyue... Based on what you just said, her mother was a messenger. She is not."

"Oh, she’s a descendant of sirens." Blushedt nodded and then, he looked at Vivian and asked, "What do you think?"

"Nonsense." Vivian’s response was sharp and straight to the point.
