Edwin glanced at everyone in the room and he met several curious eyes. Some eyes were curious to know the intel while some were curious to know how he had the intel in the first place.

He cleared his throat and asked Adeline, "Do we all know that I am working as a double agent?"

"Oh!" Adeline lightly slapped herself on her forehead and cleared it to everyone present in the room, "We have successfully managed to make those vampires believe that Prince Edwin is on their side."

Everyone in the room was now attentively listening to Adeline.

"They believe that Edwin is after the throne of Wyverndale and think that they can use him as their pawn. What they don\'t know is that Edwin is just infiltrating their inner circle to know their battle plans and other important details."

"Prince Edwin is now in their inner circle? That\'s really amazing!" General Keith looked at Edwin with praising eyes.

Not just him, everyone was looking at Edwin with amazement, even those who were against him after he was found guilty of tax embezzlement in the past. They could see that he was trying hard to atone for his sin.

Edwin was thankful that Adeline didn\'t mention how he was just walking on the path paved for him by his mother. He was sure that people would despise him if they knew that it was his mother who was the one to incite the war in the first place.

Adeline proudly looked at Edwin and said to the others, "And brother Edwin has some important details to share with us. So, let\'s hear him and decide how to move further."

He gave a thankful glance to Adeline and started with his major findings of the meeting with King Reginald.

"The first detail I would like to share is the total vampire soldiers at their disposal. According to their Vampire General, there are four thousand of them. It may sound very less but they can pretty much face a division of our human soldiers all on their own… if our human soldiers don\'t get support."

Edwin glanced at Tabitha and Nigel and continued, "We already have witches and werewolves on our side. But they might not be able to fight while side by side protecting our human soldiers from the vampires."

General Osmond cleared his throat and corrected Edwin, "With Prince Theodore\'s specialized training, our human soldiers won\'t need protection like they are completely new to the war. They can at least defend themselves from the vampire attacks if those vampires get past the witches and werewolves."

Edwin smiled and nodded his head. "I\'m sure that our soldiers will be able to defend themselves. But what if I tell you that they can defend themselves better if we were to make changes to their armors?"

"Make changes to their armors? Why? What\'s wrong with their current armors?" General Herwin asked while furrowing his brows.

Edwin glanced at Kira who was acting very stiff. He wanted to make him feel included so he asked Kira, "Mr. Kira, why don\'t you share what you saw there in the meeting when that Vampire King shook his hand with me?"

Kira\'s tail curled up in excitement when Edwin asked him to speak in the meeting comprised mostly of the humans. He glanced at Theodore for permission to speak.

And when he got a nod from Theodore, he explained what he saw, "When that Vampire King\'s hand touched Prince Edwin\'s silver ring, he reacted in pain. And I could see that silver had the same burning effect on those vampires as the sun."

Everyone\'s interest peaked when they found a new weakness of those vampires.

Kira glanced at Edwin and said, "And while returning back to Wyverndale, we were discussing how we could use their weakness against them. We came to a conclusion that if we were to coat our soldier\'s battle armors with a thin layer of silver, then vampires would be wary of touching our soldiers."

And Edwin added to what Kira said, "They won\'t be able to hurt our soldiers without hurting themselves first."

"But don\'t the vampires have super healing abilities?" General Herwin asked very skeptically, "What can a little burn from silver do to them? The silver will only increase our cost of war. We don\'t want our future generation to carry the burden of our debt, do we?"

Edwin calmly looked at General Herwin and further elaborated his point, "Yes, the vampires can heal faster. But in the war, every second matters. They won\'t harm the human soldiers unless they want to lag because of their pain and get mauled by werewolves or burned by the witches."

Everyone went quiet for a while. They all pondered upon this new piece of information brought by Edwin.

And finally, King Dragomir broke the silence, "Yes, I agree with Edwin. Silver armors can be a great advantage to our human soldiers. The vampires will be forced to go after werewolves or the witches and wizards, leaving our human soldiers for their human armies."

Dragomir tapped his finger on the table and said more to himself than to the others, "There will be better power balance among the opponents just by introducing the silver armors."

He then looked at everyone and came up with an idea to reduce the cost of war. "We all know that Tarrin is rich in precious metals\' mines. They also own plenty of silver mines as well. As this battle not only affects us but all of the Kingdoms in the south, I am sure they won\'t mind extending their help to us."

Adeline had been holding in that idea for a while now. But the moment her father brought Tarrin up, she instantly agreed. "Yes, our treaty also states that they will have to send help if Wyverndale faces any war and vice-versa. We already have plenty of fighters so they can help us financially by providing silver at a minimal rate."

Dragomir nodded his head and jotted something down on his paper. He then glanced at Adeline and asked, "As soon as we finish the meeting, remind me to write a letter to Tarrin."

Dragomir suddenly felt a chill in his heart and thought, "If I resort to writing a letter then it might be too late…"

He inhaled sharply and glanced at Theodore. "Or even better, I want Theodore to teleport me to Tarrin. I will seal the deal today itself."

Most of the people in the room could see that their King was restless for some reason. And they wondered why he was in such a haste to make the deal faster, so much so that he was asking Theodore to teleport him to Tarrin.

Theodore and Nigel both felt a sudden pang in their heart. They were reminded that King Dragomir barely had a week left before he would vanish from this world.

Theodore dug his nails on his palms and suggested in a soft voice, "It\'s already late today. Why don\'t we go there first thing in the morning tomorrow?"

Dragomir looked outside the window and realized that it was already dark outside. He sighed and agreed. "Okay, we will go there tomorrow at seven in the morning."

"I will be ready," Theodore couldn\'t even look Dragomir in the eyes anymore. And he began to aggressively blotch his paper with ink, while at the same time making sure not to show any kind of emotions on his face.

On the other hand, Adeline\'s mind was diverted when something sweet entered her nose.

She looked towards the door thinking, "Something smells good." She thought that the guards outside were having some food. And she got this sudden hunger and desire for that food.

However, she realized that it was not the food that she wanted. It was the black and purple aura floating around in the room. She guessed what kind of aura it was when every inch of her body screamed to her to absorb that aura.

She was very close to giving in and absorbing that aura, but then she saw its source. It was emanating from no one else but her father.

Adeline\'s heart was crushed to see that her brave father was afraid. She looked at King Dragomir with pitiful eyes and thought, "He isn\'t just afraid… he is terrified!"

She quickly looked down at her papers and started taking in deep breaths to control her tears as well as her urge.

Yes, Dragomir was terrified. But he didn\'t fear death like Adeline had assumed.. He feared leaving the Kingdom and his people behind when they needed him the most.
