Stopping The Umbralheim Raid

-----

The Vampires led by Christine dispersed into the rest of the city, aiming to hunt down the civilians for the offering of blood they have been promised and to slay the ones that were getting in their way. To their terrible surprise, however, they were greeted with death. They were all powerful Pseudo SS Ranks, already developing their own Divine Embers.

At the same time, some of the heavy hitters were incredibly powerful even for their own Ranks.
