An orange quest marker – the one that meant that the quest was a hidden quest, appeared above Erylis's head. "Fifth, did you upheld our laws and gave him the punishment of true death?"

"Huh? Another choice quest that is offering Werewolf reputation? Why am I getting pushed to get Werewolf reputation…" He shook his head and his thoughts continued, "No matter, the choice is clear just like before, nothing changed."
"He escaped," he said.
<Option 1 Chosen>
<Erylis Favourability -1>
"You released a criminal after confronting him? Are you serious? Why didn't you uphold our laws?" she said in a displeased voice then sighed before continuing, "I would have killed you if you weren't the Progenitor but since you are, I am giving you a chance to fix your stupid mistake. Find him and kill him… no! Bring him to the Vampire Novice Village, he will serve as an example for the others that might have similar ideas of breaking our laws."

"What about the task that I have given you, did you complete it?"
"No, not yet."
"Then what are you doing here, go."
"Before I go can you teach me any skills?"
"No, you are still too weak to learn anything from me, return once you are stronger." After her words, a notification message flashed.
<Next trainable skill available at level 10>
Dro sighed inwardly and said, "Alright. I am leaving now."
"Don't make me wait."
He nodded, turned around and walked through the Blood Gate from which he arrived earlier.
His surroundings changed and he returned back to the location where he originally was – the place where he had a conversation with the Vampire who he now has to hunt down.
Before going to search for the Vampire who he had to find for the quest, he first opened the character window and allocated his attribute points which he didn't allocate before, he put them in the same way as usual – 8 points strength, 5 points into Vitality, and the last 2 points into Dexterity. He closed the character window and thought, "Time to look for a Vampire." He glanced at the minimap and following it, he walked deeper into the forest.
After walking only a short distance, in front of him stood a monster, the same monster which he had killed before – a Wolf.
<Wolf, Level 5>
<HP: 150/150>
<Decimating Slash>
<-270 (Damage multiplier applied because of level difference), Wolf>
<Wolf Slain>
<+50 XP>
The monster dropped dead after a single skill use, Dro looked down at the corpse for loot but to his disappointment, there was no loot. Seeing this, he continued onward in the search for the Vampire.
On this path, he met the second and then the third wolf and like before, he downed each one in a single skill and like before they dropped not a single piece of loot.
After these three kills, in the distance, he saw an entrance to the cavern. "Is this it?" he thought as he approached closer. Once he was at the entrance to the cavern, he heard voices coming from inside. He stopped and listened in. One voice was consumed with panic and distress while the other one was calm but confused.
"We have to leave now!" a manly voice said in a shout.
"Why, what's wrong?" A womanly voice said.
"They know, the Vampires know about us! We have to run now!"
"That doesn't matter we will just kill whoever tries to separate us."
"No, you don't understand!"
"What don't I understand?"
"The one that knows is the Progenitor! And if he knows the Queen knows as well. We must go now! Or we will both die!"
"What?! Progenitors are on this island?!" she laughed not believing her lover's words, "Are you messing with me? Why would Progenitors or the Queen of your race be on this Island at most only a few counts are here."
"I am not joking! We have to go, now! We don't have any time to waste!"
"Wait, wait!"
The two appeared out of the cavern. The Vampire man was holding onto the Werewolf woman's wrist. It was clear that he dragged her out of the cavern.
The Vampire gulped down his saliva. "Your Excellency! What are you doing here?" he said in a shaking voice.
<Vampire Man Juri, Level 7>
<HP: 250/250>
<Werewolf woman Yuri, Level 7>
<HP: 250/250>
"He is the Progenitor?" Yuri said in a questioning voice.
Dro looked at the Werewolf woman and thought, "I have to kill her and then bring Juri to Vampire Novice Village, let's do this." He dashed at her and used a skill without delay.
<Decimating Slash, Critical>
<-253 (Damage multiplier applied because of level difference), Werewolf woman Yuri>
<Werewolf woman Yuri, Slain>
<+70 XP>
The Vampire man slowly turned his head and his eyes landed on Yuri's fallen body, tears swelled up in his eyes and he collapsed on his knees and onto the ground. "No! No! No! No! No!" he wailed.
Dro looked at the sobbing Vampire and furrowed his eyebrows. "Now I feel bad for killing the werewolf," he thought and then a notification message sounded.
<Choice Quest Received>
<Option 1>

<Option 2>

He narrowed his eyes and thought, "At every turn, I am given a chance to save this Vampire, why? For what reason? Why does this game wants me to let him go? What do I do? Do I actually let him go? Or do I continue on my path and take him to the Vampire Novice Village."
Three breaths of time passed and he with a narrowed eyes thought, "I have already committed to this, no reason to back off now. I need to stick with my initial decision to the end."
He looked at the sobbing Vampire, "Let's go, we are leaving."
The Vampire man ignored Dro and continued weeping. Dro narrowed his eyes and touched his shoulder but the Vampire smacked Dro's hand away, "Don't touch me!" His face then paled as he realised what he did, he kneeled down onto the ground, his forehead touching the ground and begged, "I don't want to die! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
"We are going to the Vampire Novice Village, stand up and follow me."
