When the three young noble vampires saw the message of Kyros, they knew that they had to inform Diana of it without telling Scarlet. They were already wary of her.

And so, while Scarlet distracted her, Avary and Gregory relayed the information, and Diana gave her plans.

The chat group continued to ring with messages as the three kept on chatting.

"Kyros ordered us to attack orc squadrons headed here as a Coven. And Diana wants us to use our Fate Challenger power to push her towards death. This is for the best. If she is the Blood Calamity, that scenario will allow her to show more of her powers." Avary replied.

"Scarlet?"

"I'm actually more worried about the rest. Gregory, you'd have to forgive me. Myas is in an even more suspicious situation!"

[Seen by Gregory.]

But Gregory didn't reply. He could not deny the fact that Myas was associated with the Blood Calamity.

"Actually... Avary... I am still iffy with Mechiel. But I'm sure Myas isn't."

"How certain are you?"

"Fate protected her. I think I could sense it now. Fate and Destiny are against each other. I think Lord Kyros must have learned something and it's helping me grow. I have a feeling that the Bowheart Clan is a clan which is tied to Fate." Scarlet answered.

"That... is yet to be determined." Avary answered.

"Avary. Lord Kyros allowed her to join anyway. He must have his reasons."

"Wrong. Martha forced Lord Kyros." Avary countered.

The group chat was suddenly quiet.

Meanwhile... Martha led the three H's down the mountain and went to the secret path that they used to scale the mountain.

"I can't believe that Lord Kyros managed to hurt the Blood Calamity!" Hunter was amazed.

"Yeah. If the Blood Calamity is a weakened Saint-level being, that is something far beyond our imagination." Helms admitted.

"Lady Martha? Why do you seem to be so worried?"

Unlike the trio, Martha had been frowning since she read Kyros's report.

"Kyros said that he met the Blood Calamity and presumed that it is a weakened Saint-Level being. And you rejoice because of his power? But I see it differently! The fact that Lord Kyros was only able to severely weaken this vampire and fled for his life means that we have enemies that even Lord Kyros can't kill!"

"But, lady Martha... Lord Kyros is not even a level ten warrior!"

"You shouldn't limit Lord Kyros by his level. It's plainly obvious that he has secrets that will shock us. Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Kyros is a son of a god! His knowledge, wisdom, and his resourcefulness are unmatched. Not even those mighty beings beyond the Midlands could match Lord Kyros in that area! And yet, he lost!"

"But that doesn't change the fact that he is not even a level ten warrior!" Hems argued.

"So? Fate or Destiny won't wait for Lord Kyros to grow. If he fought a Saint, it won't be long until we would have to fight one too! Destiny will lead us to those troubles!"

It was only then that the three H understood Martha's worry.

"Hunter, Hems, Hemsey. We can't forever be a burden to Lord Kyros!"

We have to get stronger. You should have the mindset that we will soon witness a saint or a god challenging us. So unless you could fight a Saint, the Coven, the Steele Family, and Lord Kyros is doomed."

The three H became silent.

"Forgive me. The future fights I will lead you will be more terrifying. Our timetable to grow has shrunk.

"We understand..." Hunter took the lead and answered.

It was then that they could hear voices. As the stench in the area was great, the group couldn't smell the human slaves.

"Myas!" Martha ran.

They had finally met the Slaves who they left behind.

"Lady Martha!" The slaves exclaimed as they heard the shout.

The group finally saw each other, and both groups were moving towards each other.

"Sister!" Myas rushed and gave her sister a hug.

"Sorry for leaving you. But we have to go. Let's move." Martha immediately ordered.

The group was always ready to leave and escape. They were afraid that orcs would use the path and had been in a constant state of fear. They were also suffering from the stench of the place that even though they received an ample supply of food, it was too nauseating to eat.

"Where are we going?" One of the slaves asked.

"We have received our order to move to Airom Vagat. We will meet with Lady Diana's group. She just sent us a message about her route. Have you all memorized the instructions that these three talked about?"

"Yes. Sir Knights Hunter, Hems, and Hemsey have already told us about the Steele family. We tested each other to pass the time and are confident in knowing all the history of the Steele family as well as the observations that the three Sir Knights have about the Steele family."

"Good. We have to move now. But we may need to arm you all and prepare you to fight some orcs."

"Fight?! But we're slaves! And we're too weak!"

"We'll figure something out. We don't have a choice. You can stay here or fight for your lives. That's what it means to be a Steele anyway."

The slaves were silent. But Myas was the first to move.

"Let's go." Myas called out.

"We have hope now! I'm sure they won't abandon us to our deaths."

"Myas." Martha smiled.

"Yes, Sister?"

"If you do anything odd, I might have to bite you or knock you unconscious. I love you, but I must protect my Lord. You could be a traitor, and you may not even know it. You understand, right?"

Myas was stunned.

The three H were even more surprised. They had been talking about this, but then Martha just went out and said it.

"Just don't do anything weird, alright?" Martha smiled.

"Those vampires haven't bitten me." Myas defended.

"Irrelevant. The power of the Blood Calamity is too strong. She could control you without bitting you."

"I understand. I'll warn you if I feel anything."

"Same goes for the rest of you. I'm actually surprised why my Lord agreed to save you. I was honestly pushing my luck. But his mercies shouldn't be the cause of his death. Follow my instructions, or I'll shoot an arrow through you myself."

"Why is Lady Martha starting to sound as crazy as Lord Kyros?" Hems sighed as he sent a message to the three H's group chat entitled, 'Our Lady Boss will be the Death of Us'.

"What's going on?" Martha suddenly murmured.

The Three H's reacted as Martha murmured.

But then, Hunter felt it too.

"Erm... Lady Martha...?" Hunter began.

"What?"

"I feel there is something we have to do..."

"Me too..."

"Me three..."

"What's going on? Maybe Scarlet could easily feel this with her superior Path of Foresight. But how can all of us sense this?" Martha frowned. She knew that their Foresight should not have been enough to give them such warnings, especially since what they feel has nothing to do with battle.

Martha began to think.

"Wait! Hunter. Show me the dragon egg that Lord Kyros left to me!" Martha asked. After killing the orcs and assigning them new missions, Kyros handed the dragon egg to Martha for safekeeping.

Martha made Hunter carry it as she performed her duties as a scout as they moved back to this place.

"You think it's the dragon egg?" Hunter wondered. He took it out of a small bag.

Martha took one look at it and immediately turned the small bag that held it inside-out.

"Lady Martha?" Hunter was confused.

"Lord Kyros asked me to put a few drops of blood in it every now and then. Lord Kyros also gave it a substantial amount before parting ways with the egg. I thought it was just wishful thinking for Kyros to do it, but it seems Lord Kyros knew what a dragon egg has. Look! None of the blood that Lord Kyros or I dropped on the egg left any marks on the egg or the bag that carried it! The egg absorbed all of it!"

"But how did it absorb the energy in it?"

"I don't know. But we've seen Lord Kyros's wisdom. He knows how to speak the language of orcs, golems, and lizards. It's like he been lectured by an amazing scholar."

"He mentioned about a mighty scholar called Blippi."

"I have not heard of that man. But he must know something about Dragon Eggs. It's possible that this sensation we feel is resonating from the egg itself!"

"Dragon eggs? You said something about Dragon Eggs?" The old woman asked with great interest.

"Yes." Martha held out the egg.

"This is a Dragon Egg. Lord Kyros found it."

"How sure are you that that's a Dragon egg?" The old woman asked again.

"I do not doubt my Lord." Martha answered firmly.

"Then it must be true. My masters told of an ancient legend about the days before the Nether wars. It was during the time before Airom was halved by that god! At that time, this entire mountain was a nest of mighty dragons! I know this because my former vampire master was obsessed with searching for it. They came here to chase that, hoping that if they can devour a dragon, they would reach an even more incredible power."

"This place was a dragon's nest? Then that means...!" Hemsey was the first to exclaim.

"That's right, Hemsey. This sensation we are feeling isn't Fate. But the silent cries of the Dragon Egg. Or it could be that another Dragon is calling us because we have an egg." Martha continued what she believed Hemsey was about to say.

"Erm... I was going to say that the stench in this area might have something to do with a dragon..." Hemsey answered with an embarrassed expression.

But Martha's eyes lit up.

"Hemsey! You're a genius!"
