Eugene IV sighed. “That's right. My source told me he's the fourteenth vampire prince. Moreover, I think he's gone mad. He declared to his people that he wanted to create thousands of bondslaves and turn all humans into vampires.”
“In his dreams,” Nathan said coldly.
“He's already on the move. According to my sources, he has secretly ordered his men to kill as many humans as possible and turn them into bondslaves to strengthen his clan. If this goes on, he might become a huge threat that will destroy our human race,” said Eugene IV.
At that, Eugene IV couldn't help but turn to Nathan. “Mr. Cross, you're the president of Eurasia. I beg you to contact Ariarica and talk to Mr. Bryon so we can join forces to eliminate Max. He's a potential threat to all of us.”
“Why don't you talk to Bryon yourself?” Nathan asked.
Eugene IV smiled bitterly. “We contacted Ariarica immediately to protest when the Holy Maiden was attacked and even pointed out that Max might be a vampire, hoping they'd give us an explanation. But they thought we were spouting nonsense and even warned the Curia not to slander Ariarica and accuse the Five-star General.”
Nathan replied, “If Bryon's office doesn't believe the Curia when you expose Max to be a vampire, what makes you think they will believe me?”
Eugene IV said in a low voice, “Then we'll just have to show Bryon proof that Max is a vampire. They'll have to accept it then.”
“You sound like you have a plan already, Pope Eugene.”
“Yes. We'll have a higher chance of success if you're willing to help us, Mr. Cross.”
“Let's hear it.”
Eugene IV revealed his plan of forcing Max to show his true identity to Nathan.
He told Nathan that the annual Eight-Nation Alliance summit would be held in Malarnor, a place not too far from Eurasia, a week later.
