Aurelius and Hilaire are the only surviving purebloods in the world. They rule the entire dark world, seemingly not interfering with each other, but Aurelius has always been slightly inferior to Hilaire.
However, since the day Hilaire fell in love with a human, his beloved woman gradually grew old and his heart was sealed as well.
In order to find his beloved, he was willing to believe the sweet words of a wizard and was frozen in a forbidden land for a thousand years.
However, neither of them expected that the wizard was actually Sam, who was disguised as Aurelius's confidant.
In his despair, Hilaire only wanted to see his love as soon as possible, but he forgot that Aurelius, who had been keeping a close eye on his power, was watching him.
When he realized it, he was already unable to leave the castle.
"There's still one year left before he's fully unsealed. Before that, I must find that 'thing', destroy it completely, and take his position as the Count."
"Master, don't worry. I've had people watching over there all the time. If there's any movement, someone will report it to us." Sam replied with particular seriousness, and his expression became serious because of what he said.
Hilaire and them were only separated by a wall.
But after he was sealed, he cast a spell around his castle, and anyone who dared to enter his territory would be burned to death by thunder and fire.
Even Aurelius was no exception.
"Watching all the time?"
Aurelius looked at him coldly, as if hearing something ridiculous. "Sam, I can't even enter his territory, but you can send someone to monitor every move there. Are you kidding me?"
"Master, you misunderstood. I mean that I had people watching the entrance. Although they couldn't go in, they could still see who came and going," Sam quickly clarified, afraid of accidentally angering him on this special day.
"He founded a company in the city. I want you to do everything possible to destroy it before he regains his freedom. He must not have a chance to make a comeback," said Aurelius. During the period when Hilaire was unable to move freely, Aurelius had gradually consolidated his power.
But there were things that he could not obtain just by his efforts alone.
If he wanted power and influence, he had to get rid of Hilaire first.
Aurelius's murderous intent surfaced in his eyes again.
With a gloomy expression, he walked to the rose garden and looked at the garden that was nurtured with blood. He coldly stepped on the flower buds in the garden, which were just pawns in his hand, despite the bright flowers blooming around him.
"How is the main hall arranged?"
With his face no longer showing a cold expression, Aurelius stood with his hands behind his back and asked Sam coldly.
"Everything is almost arranged. The invitations were sent out a day ago, and I have sent people to pick up all the guests," Sam replied, well aware of the special significance of the solar eclipse to them. However, he was very puzzled that Aurelius had sent out invitations and invited social elites to the castle on such a day.
"Watch over my desserts. As for the rest of the 'delicacies,' I will come and taste them after the banquet is over." After leaving this sentence behind, Aurelius disappeared from the place.
Only after he left did Sam dare to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. After carefully looking at the women in the flower garden, he waved his hand and an invisible cage suddenly appeared.
