Nina's group continued to move towards the border of Snow Province and Diamond Province, carrying out their plans and increasing the young woman's fame.

Even though she wasn't free to go far, as her power level was still low, Nina quickly made a name for herself in her town, gaining fame among the local soldiers and guards.

With a perfect record of successful missions and no deaths from comrades, she had piled up the bodies of enemies wherever she went, bringing peace and tranquility to her brother's domains.

While the youngest of the Fuller siblings was doing this in the far south of Diamond Province, Lauren was currently in the central part of the Chutha Dynasty, where she had been living.

Having arrived in this area a few months ago, Lauren had been working all these months to reach the goal she was about to accomplish today!

...

Near a famous mountain range in the central part of the Chutha Dynasty, a small group of five people were hiding in tree branches, watching something.

All of them were Paragons, the strongest being the black-haired, slender woman sitting in the lotus position on the highest branch in the area.

The other four individuals were the same distance from her, with defensive and special formations activated around them, but also dressed in 5th stage armor.

While they nervously surveyed their surroundings, anticipating a confrontation with the nearby monsters, Lauren continued her work, her eyes closed and her five pentagrams visible as she wrote in her macabre book.

A few hundred meters away, a group of powerful monsters, including a Beginner Archmage, were camped in a hard-to-reach cave in the area.

Who were Lauren's targets today? A group of 4th stage vampires and their 5th stage minions on the outskirts!

After working for months to find traces of powerful vampires in the Chutha Dynasty, she had finally found this group a few minutes before.

While she was silently dealing with the enemies, the group of over 100 monsters in this camp, hundreds of meters away from her people, were acting as usual.

Some of them were taking care of the group's small birds, sending and receiving messages from other companions in this area, while others were cultivating, resting, or waiting for orders to move.

There were eight superior vampires in this group, including two Sky Sovereigns and six Earth Sovereigns.

Besides them, the group also had one 6th stage cyclops, 20 5th stage inferior vampires, and 45 5th stage monsters. The rest were monsters or 4th stage inferior vampires, less important individuals.

"We have heard about Vicente Fuller. It seems he has recently arrived in Tamor Dynasty and is working with local forces to increase human power in the area." One of the strongest vampires in the area opened his mouth in the main area of the cave, where five of his seven companions now stood.

Upon hearing the news that had just arrived via one of the group's message birds, the strongest of them frowned, not liking it at all.

"Looks like he's finally moving. We have to get ready! He hasn't acted in over a year and a half, so he'll probably come down hard on us now."

Silence filled the main room of the cave, each of the vampires there feeling the tension of the news.

Vicente was responsible because they were not in a city at the moment, but in this remote, hard-to-reach area of the dynasty. Because of his previous action in the former capital of the Kenyth Empire, the vampire groups throughout the southern region had moved on, splitting into 3 or 4 groups in each state and operating separately in areas like this.

The most important groups still had a chief bodyguard who was responsible for protecting the most important vampires in the coalition's plans in each area.

This group near Lauren was the most important monster group in the entire state!

"Hmm? Is something wrong, Victor?" One of the two Sky Sovereigns in this group of vampires asked the person in front of him, who suddenly opened his eyes wide and put his hands on his chest.

Everyone looked at him, including the 6th stage cyclops sitting not far away, who saw him overbalance backwards and fall from where he was sitting.

But just as he hit his back on the ground, four others felt exactly what he felt.

"Aaaagh!"

A terrified scream came from outside the cave, and it was echoed by the 5th stage beings on the outskirts of this monster lair in the Chutha Dynasty.

"What's going on? What..." One of the two Sky Sovereigns was about to speak when he felt an overwhelming pressure on his heart, as if an invisible hand was forcing that muscle to stop moving.

'Shit! What's going on? Why?' He lost control of his body, his knees buckling before he fell face first to the ground.

He couldn't say or do anything else. As his eyes began to darken, he saw that practically his entire group was in the same situation as him, suddenly dying on this afternoon that had seemed so normal until a few moments ago.

"What's going on? Who's there?" The 6th stage cyclops rose from his seat, already breaking into a cold sweat at the sight of practically everyone in his group dying under his watch.

"You wretch! I'll kill you!"

Realizing this couldn't be a natural reaction, he quickly left the cave to search for the person responsible for this unexpected calamity.

As he moved, Lauren's group was already moving against him, the four Paragons nervously attacking this 6th stage creature with the help of their armor and their leader's powers.

Lauren stood up from where she was, her five pentagrams glowing simultaneously.

A supernatural force appeared around the 6th stage cyclops, while the figure of a dark spirit with a huge scythe appeared behind him and moved to cut off his head.

As much as Lauren only seemed to be able to kill with her Book of Death, that wasn't the limit of her power. This Book of Death ability was only related to her first pentagram. But she had four other essences with four different powers that could help her in battle!
