32 The Vampire World (1/2)
A group of people were standing in front the entrance to the Greyshaw Mansion. Apparently waiting for something.
Three silhouettes stepped out from between the woods.
Susan ran past the group, ”Jonas? what are you doing here? And who are...?”
Susan looked at the two horny looking people behind Jonas and took a step back, ”A High Vampire?”
Jonas sighed, 'Right I haven't told her yet..'
”Don't worry Aunt Susan, they are under my control.”
”Under your control? How is that even possible?” Said Susan in disbelief.
”Just like Michael, I was born different, I'm an Incubus.”
Susan stared at Jonas, she had never heard that term before.
”Why didn't you tell me?”
”I only became aware of it after Michael told me.” Answered Jonas.
Everyone turned to the bare chested Michael.
He only shrugged, ”I know a few things about supernatural beings.” Said Michael indeferrently.
Michael turned to Jonas, ”So you made turned them into your playthings?”
Jonas smiled, ”Yeah, it worked just like you said.”
Michael nodded, ”Good, I'm sure that they have some interesting informations, let's continue in the mansion.”
The group entered the Grayshaw Mansion, settling down at the living room. They all looked at the both vampires who were standing in the middle.
”What are you names and status?” Asked Jonas
”Yes Master, my name isGianluca Verde Pazzini, I'm the second son of Leonardo Verde Pazzini.”
”Master~, my name is Lara Ruiz, I'm Gianluca's Blood Vampire.”
”Ask them about the vampire ranks.” Said Michael.
”What ranks exist in the vampire community?”
”Master, the lowest rank are Blood Servants, they are still more or less human. Then there are Blood Vampires like Lara, they are fully turned vampires. Above them are the High Vampires like myself. Then there exist the Royal Vampires, the last rank is Ancient Vampire, with the exception of our Progenitor.” Explained Gianluca obediently.
”Hmm what is the difference between the Sanguine Council and the Fallen?” Asked Michael.
”You heard his question, answer it.” Said Jonas.
”Yes Master, the Fallen are vampires under the rule of our Progenitor, and the Sanguine Council is ruled by the most powerful vampire.” Answered Gianluca.
”Wait, what? Shouldn't the Progenitor be the strongest?”
Gianluca shook his head, ”He was, until the Blood Warlock appeared, around 900 years ago. The Progenitor has since then been suppressed by the Blood Warlock.”
Everyone took a deep breath, digesting all the information.
”What do you know about that Blood Warlock?”
”He was a Warlock and somehow tricked the Progenitor to turn him into a vampire, that was thousands of years ago. He vanished afterwards, only appearing around 900 years ago, creating the today known Sanguine Council. The Ancient Vampires of the Sanguine Council are all able to use Blood Magic. They hunted down the most loyal follower of the Progenitor, ending his supreme rule about 700 years ago.”
Michael fell into deep thoughts, ”The Blood Warlock was a real Warlock in the past, is that the reason why the three great circles allow the Sanguine Council to stay in their territory?”
”I don't know, I just know to never mess with the circles, the Sanguine Council will not help any vampire family if they break that rule.”
Michael turned to Susan, ”Did you know any of it?”
”Only some parts, I know that we allow the Sanguine Council to catch the rouge witches that resist us. I don't know what happens to them once they are catched.”
”Wow, there seems to be a lot more to the Sanguine Council and that Blood Warlock.” Said Odette.
