Chapter 1168: Chapter 84: Two Sides of Good and Evil, All-Consuming

The Cemetery District.

Lady Vamp silently returned to her underground tomb.

Just then, a cold male voice sounded, "Did you go to find that person?"

At these words, Lady Vamp turned her head with a hint of panic and immediately saw the figure of Airenicas. His expression was cold, gazing into Lady Vamp’s eyes with a trace of astonishment, murmuring, "Did he really bestow you with divinity?"

The Vampire Queen’s little actions could not be concealed from a Legendary Mage, especially since Airenicas was quite familiar with his sister.

At this moment, Lady Vamp had restored some of the vitality of the living, looking like a seductive elf enchantress. Her eyes exuded an aura of evil and charm, but she still retained the characteristics of a vampire; only her skin was no longer dull and ashen.

Maintaining life in the form of undead creatures is very difficult; only divine power can accomplish it.

"Yes."

Lady Vamp mustered the courage to look directly at Airenicas and said, "We have already lost everything."

"Without turning to a powerful master, it’s difficult to establish ourselves in this world."

Airenicas’s expression carried a hint of mockery as he slowly said, "Is this what you call a master?"

"It seems this divinity has indeed affected you a lot."

Saying one word, ’master.’

After becoming a divine creature, a mortal can have a natural lifespan of hundreds or thousands of years, and aging slows significantly. If the master desires, countless royalty and nobility in the human realm would be willing to kneel at his feet and call him master.

Lady Vamp’s expression did not change as she softly said, "In this realm, we have to find a master for ourselves."

"Isn’t believing in those lofty divine spirits the same?"

"And they don’t care about you."

"At least, Lord Duncan is willing to bestow upon us true immortal power."

Airenicas remained silent and was somewhat astonished by Lady Vamp’s transformation; her soul was different, holding the template of a divine being.

Divine power is something mortals can only dream of.

Yet that lord bestowed it so easily.

"I don’t care about your choice."

"But don’t interfere with my plans. If it suits that lord, I will cooperate with him," Airenicas turned and left.

Their ambitions were different.

Lady Vamp’s ambition capped at becoming a divine creature, having divine-like power, or reaching demigod level, serving as a powerful being’s subordinate. If given the chance to become a deity’s follower, Lady Vamp might kneel on the spot. But Airenicas was different; he wanted to become a deity himself, to stand on equal footing with other divine spirits, so he wouldn’t easily submit to Duncan.

This is like Duncan not wanting to kneel before the goddesses of the Bright Water Realm, and Airenicas also wanted to become a deity on his own.

Such people are the hardest to control.

Duncan is such a person, so he can understand Airenicas, and he is not indispensable to him. If Airenicas dies, Duncan can also smoothly reclaim his soul.

Meanwhile.

On the other side of the city, at the Shadow Thief Guild.

Aeron-Linville had just returned to the Shadow Thief’s headquarters when a subordinate promptly handed him a mission commission.

"Viconia?"

"A Zor Elf?"

Aeron-Linville’s expression was slightly surprised, "Why would that big figure be interested in a wandering Zor Elf priestess?"

The shadow thief in front of him shook his head, "I don’t know."

"Maybe there’s something different about that Zor Elf."

"Who cares."

"That big figure gave us a price we couldn’t refuse."

A price that cannot be refused.

Aeron-Linville immediately knew why he was notified; the Shadow Thief Guild indeed couldn’t refuse such generously rewarded mission commissions, and refusing them would also affect their reputation.

"Some clues suggest Viconia has recently been active near Baldur’s Gate."

"She seems to have also offended the Flaming Fist."

Aeron-Linville pondered for a moment and said, "We also have a few hidden agents near Candle Castle, spread out and gather some information."

"Are there more lists below?"

"Dahran?"

"This name seems somewhat familiar, appears to be related to the Iron Throne."

"Minsc?"

"A berserker-like ranger?"

The entire Shadow Thief Guild immediately sprang into action, efficiency skyrocketing by paving the way with money.

In the district of Waukeen, a luxury villa.

In front of Duncan was Helena, speaking hesitantly. Sometimes it wasn’t Duncan who needed these things, but they felt it could draw them closer to Duncan, making each other more intimate. Concerning this, Duncan could only accept it calmly, as he wasn’t exactly a good person, and why not enjoy the service?

"There are already clues about the person you are looking for."

Helena twisted her slender waist, her long blue hair flying, and exhaled, "Why are you interested in a wandering Zor Elf?"

Duncan didn’t speak; he just patted Helena’s ample behind in front of him as a signal for her to cast a haste spell.

Helena immediately showed a charming expression. As an experienced woman, she clearly understood men’s needs. After casting a few small spells, she said melodiously, "There aren’t any leads yet on that Zor Elf named Drizzt."

"But that person called Viconia has already fled near Baldur’s Gate."

Viconia.

A Zor Elf devout to the dark goddess Shire.

A deserter from the Dark Realm.

Also a future legendary priestess of the Shire Church; every member of Chaneem’s main group is a dragon among men, with at least legendary level potential.
