Chapter 297 Finally back



“She just does whatever she wants…” He mumbled, shaking his head while a small smile appeared on his face.

It was very interesting to keep someone like Victoria around them. Even if she was doing whatever she wanted to, it was actually not that difficult to block her off.

Dilan never really did that despite stating his boundaries to her every now and then. Victoria was capable of clearing Dilan’s mind. That was not something everyone could do easily and until now he had not come across anyone who was as interestingly weird as her.

He walked through the treasury with a much calmer mind while thinking about future events. Meanwhile, the memory of her soft lips pressing on his own flashed through his mind once in a while, which made it much easier for Dilan to keep his calm.

At the thought of facing thousands of Vampires, Dilan would either get excited and show that he was completely prepared to have the time of his life fighting all his opponents while shedding blood, or he would feel depressed because there were bound to be casualties when his group would clash with the Vampires.

Both reactions were not helpful in any way, which was why Victoria’s presence had been quite helpful, to help him find a balanced state while simultaneously releasing the tension in his body.

“These treasures look interesting…Oh, what is that? That would be perfect for…” Dilan spoke in astonishment as he finally found a few treasures that were actually pretty useful for their group.

He had never expected to find a lot but the treasures he found proved his expectations to be completely wrong.

Once he was done collecting three treasures, Dilan returned to the others. Victoria was also standing in the group, while her gaze kept flicking to him every now and then.

Her expression seemed to be full of questions and she was lightly touching her lip as if to feel something.

“Just what is it?” She mumbled quietly, not wanting anyone to hear her. However, an Ascender’s senses were much higher than an ordinary human’s senses. Dilan had picked up her words, just like everyone else as he joined their group.

“What’s the issue?” He straightforwardly asked, looking deep in her eyes that had returned to their marine blue color.

“N-nothing…don’t mind me…” Victoria said before retreating a few steps.

Her gaze was still fixated on Dilan but her behavior was even weirder than usual. And that meant quite a lot.

‘Is she her ‘normal’ self as long as her eyes are not crimson?’ Dilan wondered because he felt like Victoria transformed into a completely different woman the moment her eyes turned crimson.

This would be quite interesting and if it were to be the truth, Dilan’s life would become much easier. He would be able to figure her out as long as he would know which side of her was he speaking to.

Dilan felt that it made sense but also that it didn’t really make sense. He smiled at his own thoughts before getting back to the more important things.

“We should leave now. But because almost everyone is exhausted, let’s just use the Van again. Whoever wants to can hop in and drive the way back,” Dilan suggested calmly when everyone’s attention was on him.

His body might be invigorated but he was still not completely fit. Meanwhile, Silas was injured and Oliver’s appearance resembled a piece of coal not too long ago.

It was fine to rest a bit inside the Van especially because they would drive only a few hours.

“So we’re done here? Finally!” Ailee exclaimed in joy and she turned in the direction of the van without hesitation. She was ready to drive if that was necessary but she didn’t want to stay in the Blue Star camp anymore.

The Survivors’ gazes were disgusting, even more so that of the Ascenders. She felt like she was an appetizer, and the thought unnerved her. If possible, she would have left the Blue Star camp the moment they killed the Thunderbolt Eagle.

“I’ll get some more fuel and then we can set off,” Williams stated before he disappeared. It took him a few minutes to return with a heavy canister in his hands.

“Looks like nobody wants to stay here anymore. Bidding farewell to Clerens is not necessary either because he might curse me, soo….let’s go!” Dilan clasped his hands together and they set off without wasting any more time.

They entered the van that was standing in the Blue star camp’s base, unscathed and ready to be driven several hundred kilometers in the next eight hours.

It was already late evening when they set off and they only returned home when the first rays of sunlight unveiled themselves on the horizon.

“Finally we’re back!” Ailee spoke excitedly, tightly gripping the steering wheel. It was bent but she couldn’t care less about that. She was at home, and it was all that mattered!

“It has been half a week since you left…” Oliver mumbled, trying to figure out why Ailee was so excited. But in response to his words, she only glared at him and turned her head away before huffing audibly.

After they arrived in Shiron, it didn’t take long before the first Ascenders found their van. They were vigilant of potential threats for a few seconds and stared at the vehicle with squinted eyes before they saw that Ailee was driving the van.

Everyone returned to the base, anticipating hearing the grand stories of what must have happened when Ailee and the others were out with Dilan. It was impossible for nothing special to have happened!

When the van reached the base, Dilan and everyone else was greeted heartily. It was almost as if one was in medieval times and the Knights had returned from the battlefield with a glorious victory, of course.

Oliver and Kuhn enjoyed this feeling the most, while Dilan’s expression didn’t reveal much emotion. He took a glance at over his group and saw that almost everyone’s expression was filled with genuine happiness.

There was no grief or anything like that perceptible in their eyes or body language, which calmed Dilan a lot.

‘It looks like nothing bad happened when I was away. That’s great…’ He thought almost immediately, just to feel something familiar wrapped around his arm.

“No way?!” A Survivor blurted out subconsciously which was followed by many others gasping in surprise.

Dilan didn’t turn his head to look at what was going on to his right because it was obvious.

Victoria’s eyes had turned crimson and she seemed to have become more possessive of him than before.

She held his arm and was tightly clutching it to her chest but Dilan didn’t really mind it.

“What the hell…” A familiar voice suddenly echoed through the surroundings, just for someone else in the same direction to start cursing, “Who’s that bitch?!”

Dilan turned his head to look at the sisters Kathrine and Yvonne. Their eyes glared at Victoria as if she was dead meat, which was something Dilan had not expected.

He lifted his right eyebrow and was about to ask them what was going on when he noticed that Ailee rushed over to the sisters.

“Calm down girls!! I’ll explain…or I will try…” She hurriedly said while trying to pull them away from the crowd.

“You see…eh…it’s difficult to explain…but eh…Dilan didn’t do anything wrong…I think…”
