Salute To The General
Chapter 3313 Did You Ask For My Permission

When Sevan and the others returned to the peak of God's Palm, Nathan was playing chess with Hepburn while Colin was brewing tea using a red clay stove nearby. "Sevan, you guys are back."

Nathan was delighted to see Sevan back safely. He put down the chess piece he was about to play, stood up, and walked toward Sevan to greet him. Nathan was about to greet everyone with a job well done when his face fell on Sevan's pale face and the faint hint of crimson in his eyes. Nathan's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Sevan, what happened to you?" Hong Qi forced a smile.

"I'm fine, Mr. Cross"

Tears immediately filled Trinity's eyes as he choked, "Mr. Sevan was harmed by Gregg. He deliberately injected a drop of ancestral blood into Mr. Sevan's body, turning him into a vampire, all to get under your skin, Chief Cross." Quarta added angrily, "Chief Cross, we must seek justice for Mr. Seven and kill this brute."

Nathan's face darkened, and his eyes gradually filled with immense guilt. He uttered slowly, "It's my fault for dragging you into this. If I hadn't sent you as an envoy, you wouldn't have encountered this disaster..." Sevan interrupted. "How can I blame you for this, Mr. Cross?"

When I lost my mind and was imprisoned by evildoers aboard the Ghost Ship, if it wasn't for you, who rescued me and gradually helped me regain my sanity and memories, I'm afraid I would still be a soulless walking corpse. I can never repay your kindness in this lifetime. I always thought I would spend my life by your side, serving loyally in whatever you asked me to do. But I never expected something like this to happen. Fortunately, Trinity, Quarta, and I have completed our mission for this trip. We have not let you down. After I finish reporting my work, if possible, I will leave on my own. Since I've become a vampire, I'm unsuitable to stay by your side. It will cause others to criticize you and leave you a bad name."

To Sevan, Nathan was the commander-in-chief of the alliance fighting against the vampires. Sevan used to be Nathan's subordinate, but now he has become one of the vampires.

If he continued staying by Nathan's side, it would undoubtedly subject Nathan to criticism and disapproval. In order not to put Nathan in a difficult position, Sevan decided to leave. However, Nathan chided, "Who told you you could leave?"

Sevan lowered his head and replied gloomily, "You're right. As the commander-in-chief of the alliance against the vampires, it's only natural that you cannot tolerate their existence. How could you let a vampire live? If you wish to kill me, Mr. Cross, I'm willing to accept my fate." Nathan became more enraged. "Who wants to kill you? Who dares to kill you? Did they ask for my permission?"

Sevan was dumbfounded. He raised his head and gave Nathan a confused expression. "But Mr. Cross, you just said I'm not allowed to leave. If you're not killing me either..."

Nathan said coldly, "Who said you can only die or leave if you become a vampire? You are my subordinate and my brother. I didn't even kill those bondslaves that surrendered. So why can't I accept you as well? Must I get rid of you?"

Sevan explained, "I didn't mean it that way, Mr. Cross. It's just that I'm different from those captured bondslaves. They are low-class vampires infected by the blood virus. My body was injected with a drop of vampire ancestral blood by Prince Gregg. And the ancestral blood is completely different from the common blood virus. I'm not like those ordinary bondslaves either. I now have the true vampire bloodline within me, making me a real vampire.

The serum produced by Cross Group might be useful for bondslaves, but I doubt it would have any effect on a real vampire like myself."

Sevan was telling the truth. Cross Group's serum was effective only against the blood virus that Shadow Scientists had enhanced. It could transform those infected with the blood virus back into humans. Unfortunately, it might be useful against the ancestral blood flowing inside Sevan's body. The poison of the ancestral blood from King-Class vampires was countless times stronger than the common blood virus!
