"These scars aren't the only thing he left behind," Avadil touched his face, running his fingers on the wound. "My father left this kingdom bleeding, and the calamities feast on its blood."
"The calamities should be behind the gates," Arthur smiled, acting oblivious to the fact Kar, the Vampires Overlord, existed in the shadows of this kingdom. However, Avadil was clearly warning him when he mentioned blood.
"We are the greatest calamity, Seika," Avadil sighed and stared at him weakly, showing Arthur a vulnerable and tired side. "Humans will fight between them until all left are corpses, and the monsters will reap the benefits."
"And do you want the war to stop?"
"I want it to end because there is no stopping it. The war against the calamities is the reason we are here, and it is the ancient task delegated by the gods."
