    The mighty Malevolence was motionless. Not only was she motionless, her body rapidly began to turn into a cloud of smoke and a pool of liquid, just like snow melting under the sun.


    Vivian, grumpy from waking up, killed the Malevolence that had a DPS of a million, barehanded.


    Everyone was on pins and needles. The demon hunters instinctively stepped back, as even the bravest warriors among them could not help but swallow. They lowered their weapons and tried to minimize their sense of presence.


    Some of the demon hunters were seeing the legendary Countess of the Crimson Moon for the first time. They had never experienced the horror of being pursued by her. But they were not stupid. Only a while ago, they had witnessed how the countess took down the powerful Malevolence with her bare hands. No one dared to look for trouble with her.


    The demon hunters were mistaken. Hao Ren knew why Vivian could kill the Malevolence so quickly—it was because of Vivian’s higher-order. Vivian was deemed a Malevolence herself, but she was no ordinary Malevolence. She was the boss of all Malevolences. She could crush the lower-order Malevolences just by spitting on them. Had the monster been at her peak, it would take Vivian some time. But the earlier battle had exhausted her strength considerably, and when Vivian appeared, the Malevolence was totally defenseless.


    Everyone silently watched with their jaws on the ground as Vivian vented her anger on the Malevolence for as long as five minutes. The ancient vampire finally stopped when her enemy was entirely obliterated. She still seemed to be experiencing some low blood pressure after justing out of bed. She sat in the pit for a half a minute, then looked up. “Who was that guy? Can anyone tell me what just happened here?”


    The demon hunters looked at each other. No one dared to say a word for fear that the old woman would be grumpy again.


    Hao Ren could not be happier with the demon hunters staying away. After all that setbacks, he finally found Vivian in that hellish ce during medieval times. He was excited. But he controlled his emotion and came up to Vivian. “Hi, you finally wake up.”


    “Yeah, almost.” Vivian blinked in confusion. Around her, the shadowy realm’s copse suddenly elerated. The moon had returned to its original bright white while the steppe shattered into millions of pieces. Since Vivian was awake, the scene of the real world began to appear in the distance. “Someone woke me up.”


    “Someone woke you up?” Hao Ren was startled.


    “There he is.” Vivian got to her feet. She massaged her forehead while pointing in a direction. “Kid,e over.”


    Hao Ren did a double take when he saw the person.


    A man wearing a hooded cloak and hiding his face in the shadow of the hood stood silently not far away. The guy was the wizard who had disappeared earlier.


    Hearing Vivian’s call, the mysterious wizard immediately came up. His hood moved a bit as if he was ncing at Hao Ren and Lily before kneeling in front of Vivian. “The Great Lady of the Crimson Moon, congrattions on regaining your territory.”


    The wizard spoke with humility and a hint of anxiety as well as anticipation. He did not seem to care about it in the presence of Hao Ren and Lily.


    Vivian still felt groggy and almost forgot what agreement she had made with this wizard. Vivian shook her head, and after a while, she finally remembered. “Oh, we have a deal earlier. Here you go.”


    As she spoke, she took a crystal out of nowhere. The crystal glowed faintly with a blood-red liquid ball suspended inside. It was bursting with powerful energy.


    Bain took the crystal in his hands, trembling. He gasped as he sensed the pure and potent energy.


    “This blood drop contains my power. With this blood, you can open any door to the location of my other servants, no matter where they are. But I have to remind you: the blood drop is just a guide. It can bring you to my other followers who have my breath, but the amount of power needed to open the door depends on how far you are from the target. Let me be frank with you, it doesn’t look like there’s much hope for you. Little guy, your magic power is too weak. You might be an outstanding wizard among the humans, but you are still far from attaining the level of power you would need.”


    Wizard Bain bowed in respect and tried hard not to look too excited. “The Great Lady of the Crimson Moon, thank you for your gift. I will find my own way.”


    Hao Ren looked on, puzzled. He never expected to see Bain this way. Bain ran way with the key, and everyone thought that he had an ill intention. Now, it seemed that Bain had some reached some deal with Vivian. What is going on? Hao Ren asked himself.


    And just when Hao Ren was about to ask, another voice, sounding excited, came from not far away. “Lady Vivian, how could you give away your power crystal to this lowly human wizard?”


    Vivian was visibly stunned. She almost instinctively broke up into a swarm and bats to run away. But Hao Ren knew what was in Vivian’s mind. He quickly stopped her. “Vivian, stop!”


    Vivian was stunned for a while. At this brief moment of hesitation, a shadow lunged up in the air flying toward her.


    Hessiana hade from the north tower and now wrapped her arms around Vivian like an octopus.


    The demon hunters eyes were on stalks. A small number of them raised their weapons to prepare to battle, but Hasse stopped them.


    There was nothing to trigger their killing instinct. Even the husky was a weird mix breed. The demon hunters finally calmed down.


    “Get off me! Get off me!” Vivian struggled to pull Little Bat off her. She could no longer act elegantly. “If you still refuse to get off me, I will turn into a swarm of bats and go!”


    Hessiana quickly let go of Vivian and smirked like a child who had made a mistake. But she quietly shot Hao Ren a look as if saying ‘well done.’


    Thanks to Hao Ren, Little Bat could finally hug her “mother” for the first time in hundreds of years. She wondered how Hao Ren had managed to stop Vivian from running away just in time for her to catch her ‘mother.’ Was it coincident?


    Hao Ren had gotten Hessiana’s signal. He returned a look that said ‘you are wee, we are friends. I helped you because I could not bear to see Little Bat looking for mommy. I hope that once you recover your memory, we could get along well and you will not You recover your memory, get along well.’


    Hessiana had no idea what that look meant.


    “Lady Vivian, how could you give away your power crystal to this guy?” Little Bat turned to Vivian and asked. “Do you know who this guy is?”


    “You know him?”


    “I don’t.” Hessiana hesitated.


    “I do not know him either.” Vivian shrugged. “But he has the shadow key that I have given to youst time. I thought it was your man. Anyway, this human wizard has woken me up in time and brought me here to destroy the intruder. I think he is a good guy, I think there is nothing wrong to reward him.”


    Hessiana was embarrassed because the shadow key was stolen from her. “It was this guy, Bain, who stole the key from me!”


    As Hessiana spoke, she looked at Bain. “Hey, you! Tell us what you want!”


    “I want no other thing.” The mysterious wizard did not seem afraid at all in front of the demon hunters and all-powerful high-order vampire. He appeared to be aware of how influential Vivian was and was not worried about his safety. “I seek the help of the Great Lady of the Crimson Moon. I have just used a couple of little tricks in the process, and I believe that they have not caused any trouble to the Countess of the Crimson Moon.”


    “That seems to be the case.” Vivian, who was usually amiable while she was awake, nodded.


    Little Bat was depressed. “But-But this man—”


    Just then, something crossed Lily’s mind. She looked up and asked Bain curiously, “Is your real name Baptiste?”
