I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot-Chapter 989: 16.35 First Red Star - Thana Daybreak and Luciel Dawn
"Is her soul still alive?" Conri Lycaon asked.
Conri Lycaon has always desired to know the answer to this question. He didn't mind knowing if his fated person still existed, whether as a soul or something else. If she was still alive within Amber Dawn, he would do everything he could to keep her alive until she was reborn. The young werewolf king, Conri Lycaon doesn't mind waiting for a very long period. Because he is prepared to wait for her to be reborn, and by then he will be guarding her as if she were his life.
A meaningful smile appeared on Keylan Light's handsome face, "If the body exists then she is, waiting to be reborn she can only wait in her former body. Until her new vessel was created only then she would be completely reborn. Of course, if the one who can give it to her dies then... She would perish forever. So she would make a move so someone can protect her while she wasn't reborn yet. It was a gamble. After all, who would protect someone they haven't met at all? Even so, she took a gamble..."
Abruptly standing up, "You! Hm..."
Conri Lycaon covered his lips promptly. He can't get heated with an Instructor for the second time. After comprehending a few things, he sat down and buried his face in his hands. No one knows what he was thinking, but as he raised his head, he gazed at Asher Light and clicked his tongue before diverting his head, his emerald eyes brimming with resentment. The kind that cannot accept the latter not the hatred type of resentment.
"That bastard..."
As Asher Light watched Conri Lycaon's response, he felt compelled to strike him for unexplained reasons. He had an idea why Conri Lycaon was asking such a question, but he didn't want to think otherwise until he had clear confirmation. Who would want to believe that the woman he adores is someone who has taken over another person's body?
"Are there any further questions?" Keylan Light inquired. "If not, then... I believe we can stop the afternoon courses early today. For the evening lessons, we will meet at the gymnasium. See you there. Class dismissed."
As is customary, the instructors were the first to exit the classroom before the students. As soon as Keylan Light had gone, Asher Light approached Conri Lycaon, leaving practically everyone stunned. Athan Vladimir appeared disoriented as if he was thinking about something important and couldn't notice what was going on around him.
Asher Light asked, "Were you serious with your words? How sure can you ask those questions?"
"Sure enough to at least realize the difference between the two from the past to the current. You have her investigated right? There is no way you wouldn't notice the difference. My stand is still the same as before. As long as she bears my crest I am willing to protect her until my Luna is reborn." Conri Lycaon said.
Asher Light grimaced and said, "You are crazy."
"As if you are not yourself," said Conri Lycaon before taking his leave with his subordinates.

At the boundaries of the Dark Forest where the Vampires live, in the Mansion owned by the Daybreak Clan...
Thana Dawn was no longer Athan Vladimir's escort guardian after he lost his status as heir. Despite the fact that Athan Vladimir is no longer the heir, he continues to attend Genus Academy to protect himself. But before she left, she took one more look at her children.
Thana, the Earl of Daybreak Clan, is Amber and Esther Dawn's mother. They didn't know her actual name and only knew she'd vanished when the Templar Temple kidnapped her spouse. Her spouse, Luciel Dawn, concealed her identity and destroyed any evidence of her involvement with him and his children. This is to keep her and her two children safe from the two factions that fought the most.
Some thought Thana Daybreak and Luciel Dawn's relationship was forbidden. The first is a Noble Vampire, while the second is a Cardinal and a well-known Vampire Slayer. They were meant to be adversaries who could never get along, let alone engage in a relationship based on trust and love. Yet Thana and Luciel fell in love despite everything.
Thana Daybreak abandoned her clan and adopted the name Hana Dawn for the sake of her beloved. Luciel Dawn likewise lives with his family and hides his tracks from the Templar Order. They were able to live in peace while remaining hidden from both groups. It wasn't until Amber Dawn was born and raised a ruckus in the hospital that the Templar Temple and the Blood Clan learned of their presence.
Amber Dawn awoke her Light affinity and blood affinity, a Gold Blood Constitution, which was termed a God Physique when she was born. Both Luciel Dawn and Thana Daybreak had made significant sacrifices to lock all of her powers as a baby and make her appear to everyone as an ordinary child. Luciel Dawn sacrificed his Heavenly Eyes to govern Amber Dawn's Light Affinity, while Thana Daybreak gave her daughter her blood essence as a vampire.
She was now utilizing bats to observe developments in the Templar Temple's domain. Virtually everyone in the academy knew what had occurred to the Pope that night. Thana Dawn took advantage of the circumstance to see her husband, who was imprisoned in the lowest level of the Templar Temple's water dungeon.
Thana Daybreak mumbles, "There were fewer guards at the underground prison than before. This must be because the Pope had ended up quite badly that night. The higher-ups of the Templar Temple might have focused more on protecting their Pope than the other reason. Is he that badly injured?"
She was intrigued by the Pope's current situation, but she opted to focus on her husband, who is more essential in her life. Thana Daybreak employed her beast familiars, bats, and rats, as planned, to infiltrate the underground prison, especially the prison that contained Luciel Dawn.
Thana Daybreak was astounded by what she saw after successfully sneaking inside the water dungeon that housed Luciel Dawn. She noticed that the whole cave had expanded across the prison and that the chamber itself was draining her husband's power. As she observed her husband's present plight, she couldn't help but feel enormous grief in her heart. His lower body was immersed in a freezing pool, and his upper body was covered with whip wounds that refused to heal no matter what. A portion of Luciel Dawn's blood combines with the ice lake underneath him, and the blood being taken is his blood essence, which contains all of his light elemental powers.
"Darling?"
Thana Daybreak was overcome with emotion, and her connection to his familiars was almost severed. Although she was distraught with the sight conveyed to her by her familiars, the man with closed eyelids showed his purple irises with gold rims. His eyes which were once golden in shade had now lost all his divinity after sacrificing it for his daughter. His barely opened chapped lips emit a raspy and virtually nonexistent sound.
Luciel Dawn whispered, "Honey?"
Despite his overall frailty, he could feel the familiar aura emanating from the little rat that had crept into his prison cell. He was skeptical about feeling his wife's aura emanating from the little rat. Yet, he was previously aware that his wife's familiars are mostly bats and rats who are controlled by her blood. Thana Daybreak was taken aback by the low tone and raspy voice. She was unconvinced and that she was hearing things until Luciel Dawn spoke to her again.
"It's... danger-ous...here. Don't... come." Luciel Dawn even in the midst of overall weakening himself, still wished for his wife's safety the most.
Thana Daybreak's eyes welled up as she heard her husband and his comments. Vampires are cold-blooded and hardly emotional beings, but that doesn't imply they don't have feelings. It's only that their emotions are linked to the one person with whom they pledged their blood would mix. The actual reason Luciel Dawn didn't die despite having his blood and abilities drained by that underground prison is that he had long been changed to a vampire by his wife. He would live for very long as long as his heart wasn't punctured or his skull wasn't destroyed.
Thana Daybreak spoke, "Darling, wait for me! I will definitely save you. I will get you out of there. This is an opportunity! Pope Kenan Light was badly hurt. I won't give you the details right now. I will make preparations to bring you away!"
"Okay. I will wait for you." Luciel Dawn said.

A dinner together with Esther Dawn. The Academy had granted permission for these siblings to live together. Asher Light didn't think much about this arrangement since he believed that only by living with Esther Dawn would Amber Dawn be safe even at Genus Academy. He would most likely live with the Dawn siblings if the school hadn't prohibited non-blood-related individuals from living together.
Amber Dawn is now eating supper with her elder brother, who appears to be a little out of it the entire time. Esther Dawn was concerned since Esther Dawn hardly ate his meal on the dish.
Amber Dawn asked, "Elder Brother, is there something wrong? Why aren't you eating? Is the food not to your liking?"
"Ah? No, it is delicious. I was thinking of something else." Esther Dawn said as he tried to smile but looked, even more, weirder as he forced it.
Amber Dawn said, "Elder brother, don't smile forcefully if you don't wish to. You've been weird lately. Is it because of what happened to the Pope?"
"No. I serve the Holy Son, not him. He might be the Pope but he wasn't the one I'm serving. It's just that... Hm, Amber have you lately been feeling someone is staring at you or something?" Esther Dawn asked worriedly
Amber Dawn answered honestly, "Yes, but it has been gone lately. Don't worry, elder brother. This is Genus Academy no adults would dare to move on students unless they wanted to end up like the Pope."
Sigh~
Esther Dawn said, "I hope so. Still, be vigilant with your surroundings. At least avoid being alone."
"Do you have any idea who it might be, Elder Brother?" asked Amber Dawn.
"I wasn't sure but... I caught someone from the Vampire race staring at us. She is an Earl Ranked Vampire so I was quite worried. You remember one of the female Earls from the Blood Race, the one named Thana Daybreak. He had been observing us from a distance." Esther Dawn.
Amber Dawn said, "Her? I remember. But brother don't you think she is quite... You know, I truly haven't personally met her before but... She feels extremely familiar for some reason. Though I am also sure I haven't met her before."
"You also thought she was strangely familiar? I thought it was only me. No matter what stays from her, I will get someone to investigate her to make sure." Esther Dawn said.
Amber Dawn said, "Sure. Finish your dinner, Elder Brother."
