บท 79: Aphrodisiac*

The High Priest asked to be excused for a while, returning to his shack nearby to get something.

The Vampire King nodded and allowed the High Priest to go as he continued conversing with Cederic regarding the damaged structures at the Castle. 

Jon had stayed at the Vampire King's castle to deal with the aftermath.

Cederic had discussed with the Vampire King, waiting for Apollyon's instructions so that, in turn, the military general could delegate tasks to his soldiers to restore the Castle into its initial condition.

Cederic also needed to speak to the families of individuals affected during the accident--whose kin had been killed when the Vampire King had turned into a dragon.

The Vampire King had to compensate for the precious lives lost.

Even in warring realms, casualties couldn't be helped.

  What an irony! 

Apollyon had taken lives without remorse when he used to be plagued by the curse.
