Chapter 24: Higher Races
Kaiju nodded. Now the atmosphere cooled down somewhat, Kaiju was instantly reminded of the mission of the Trial. As the participants who were in the Trial for a decade, their expertise on the Trial was certainly a massive boon to him. Hence, he didn't hesitate to inquire with them.
"How much time do we have until the baron vampire awakens?"
Max was stunned and so was Qwanisha, as they suddenly exploded into a hoot of laughter.
Qwanisha, while wiping the tears on her eyelids from the excessive laughter, replied, "He will never be awakened until we successfully snatch his treasures from his burg. In fact, as of this moment, we should not be worried about him, but those other races who have been waiting at the same time as us.
We've been testing their patience. If it was not for us that we were given the mission to snatch the treasures, they had long killed us."
Kaiju was stunned. To be honest, he was really worried about the awakening of the vampire baron, but it seemed, as stated by Qwanisha, he must fret more on the impatience of the other races.
Now that the couple mentioned them, Kaiju asked, "Can't they just complete our mission?"
Qwanisha shook her head and replied, "They can't. The moment they enter the burg, the baron vampire will instantly awaken, whereas if it's us, the lowest among the races, the baron vampire can leave the task of protecting his treasures to his subordinates. The Trial already explained that.
Haven't you asked it?"
