Chapter 49 A Ghost In A Vampire's Mist
The man in the black cloak spread his arms separately as he stared down at the gathered vampires while he stood on a rock.
"Let me introduce myself, I believe most of you don't know who I am… my name is Gudan, the leading member of the council, representative of the Ghost race". The man introduced, "You are honoured to have me stand in your presence".
The whole crowd gasped in shock, moving away from the man while placing their hands on their weapons.
Elena who was still hiding and spying on them was also shocked when she heard what the man said.
'A ghost? What is a ghost doing with the vampires?' She questioned.
One of the vampires in the crowd walked forward with his sword aimed at the cloaked man from afar.
He had red hair with a galax haircut that was complimented with a smooth and long pathing at the side.
Standing brave he uttered, "You've got some nerve coming here with no backup, reveal your face".
The man in the cloak sighed in disappointment, dropping his hand as he looked at the vampire.
"After I came up with the perfect introduction… geez, tough crowd." The man said, pulling the cloak and revealing his face.
Although he had a neck, but his head wasn't connected to it, instead it was hovering above it.
His right eye had a long scar that started from the right side of his forehead, over his closed right eye, and all the way to his lower cheeks.

There was no hair on his head, instead was replaced with a blue flame that kept burning upward to a certain limit.
Everyone could see this and was immediately alerted. Vampires and Ghost never get along, in fact, the Ghost race hardly gets along with any other race, because of thier mentality to exist in the shadows and obsession over power.
"You are part of the council? What is a member of the council of three doing here?" The vampire asked before pulling his sword down.
"You are quite the talkative aren't you?" Gudan asserted. He suddenly tapped his finger and multiple ghosts with different shapes and colors started appearing around the vampires.
"What the hell?!"
"There are ghosts everywhere!"
"Stay on guard, the hell."
All the vampires took a defensive stance, getting ready to strike if the ghost were to make any sudden moves.
"Relax bloodsuckers, hissssssss if anything, hissssss, you should be inviting us." One of the ghosts who appeared in a serpent form with spider legs uttered.
"Shut up!" A short vampire yelled, charging straight at the crowd with flames covering his fist.
Before he could get close to the ghosts, a small shadow portal appeared on the ground right before a vampire dressed in a red military outfit sunk out of it.
The man held the vampire's fist with one hand which immediately put out the fire and stopped the short vampire in his track.
"C…Commander Slevin." The short vampire stammered as he stared at the dressed-in red vampire.
"Stand down." Selvin said while staring at the short vampire with his eyes glowing.
The vampire immediately stepped back and bowed his head, "I apologize, Commander!" He yelled at the top of his lungs.
Out of nowhere, Gudan burst into laughter, "Very good, Very good." He voiced out, "Come to me, Selvin".
"Yes, sire." Selvin responded, taking one step after the other toward Gudan.
The vampires were surprised, Commander Selvin was one of the most fearsome vampires under Lord Gidz.
Seeing him in a state where he is listening to every word a ghost says was out of character and the Vampires could tell.
"That is Commender Selvin right?" A female vampire whispered to her teammate.
"I think so, I don't think you are the only ones with questions about this." The teammate responded.
Another vampire whispered, "Commander Selvin summoned us … is he planning on us ambushing the Ghosts?".
"Shit, this is getting confusing… we're sitting ducks if we keep standing around like this".
Gudan noticed the way the Vampires were whispering to themselves while giving him death stares.
"Ahhhh, that's what I'm talking about… those stares, truly exciting." Gudan said with a grin on his face, "But time to get things rolling".
Selvin stood behind Gudan, not uttering a single word instead standing still as a statue.
Gudan stretched out his hands toward the vampires and they immediately pulled out their weapons to defend themselves.
"Tim hok, volnanmani!" Gudan voiced and a huge magic circle immediately appeared in the sky with three female mermaids falling from it.
They landed on the ground, with their tails flapping on the ground continuously as they struggled to move.
'A mermaid?' Elena muttered to herself, 'I thought they only resided in the Human empire?'.
The mermaids were right in front of Gudan, who was looking down at them with a grin on his face.
"Nice seeing you again, I need you to do one more thing for me." Gudan said to the mermaids.
"P-Please let us go… Y-you promised to free use after we helped you take control of the other beast.. please don't….".
"How dare you defy me?!" Gudan yelled, whopping the red-haired mermaid with his ghost whip.
"Maria!" The two other mermaids cried out in unison.
The red-haired mermaid whipped, laying on the ground with her chest while her sister covered her to defend against Gudan.
"Sorry, please don't take that to heart, Maria didn't mean it." Shuna, the blue-haired mermaid expressed while using her body as a shield to defend her sister.
"Great, now do what I asked you to." Gudan said with a smile.
"What is wrong with you guys?!" A male vampire yelled, "Are you really just going to stand around and let a vampire do as her pleases in the red district?".
"Oh?" Gudan muttered after noticing the vampire.
"What are you trying to imply? Are you stupid or something? He is a council member… you'd be stupid to raise your hands to a council member." A huge vampire uttered.
"Yeah, of course, I know that… then we let Duke Vlad know a council member is here!, even Commander Selvin is acting differ...".
Before he could utter another word, a fast-moving tentacle that was glowing blue whooshed out of Gundan's finger and straight into the vampire's chest.
His heart stuck at the end of the tentacle, leaving the rest of the vampires speechless at the sight.
"Damn you talk too much," Gudan said with a sigh, "I don't think you understand your predicament yet".
Suddenly, right in the middle of the vampire crowd, a huge burst of blue energy emerged out of a single vampire who had his eyes on Gudan.
"You… You bastard!" The vampire yelled before launching himself toward Gundan while forcing his way through the ghost army.
