Chapter 406 Gray Allen's Three Announcements (2)
A lot of people were already expecting him to make a statement about it, so it wasn't too shocking to them. But it was still shocking that he revealed it.
Although everyone would believe what an Heir revealed, there were still doubts. What if she said it just for the heat of the moment? What if she said it simply to profit her territory in the wake of the chaos?
Though the heirs with Destiny must think carefully about their words and know how to speak to avoid revealing unnecessary things, they are still young and can make mistakes or act according to their whims, regardless of the consequences.
So, while it carried weight, it did not carry the same weight as Gray Allen's words. If he said there were traitors in the race, then no one would doubt it.
The same applied to any of the leaders of the other Vampire Clans, but this time it was Gray Allen. The most powerful of the 7 Leaders, the most prestigious. Even in the history of the vampire race after the Dietrich Era ended, Gray Allen was likely to be the most powerful.
That was why the weight of his words was absurd and made the entire Allen City look with a darkened countenance.
Still, this statement was not the end of this meeting.
After giving them time to process it, Gray Allen spoke again.
"With that said, I will also say several other things. These days, the Human Empire is more active than ever. The same applies to the Devourers; the 'Two Gates' of that race are very active these days, so they might be gearing up for something big.
So, after doing a cleanup on the race, I hope all the powers will set their sights out there and begin to understand that we are no longer that glorious race that could against all their enemies." Gray Allen ended his statements with a hint of annoyance.
And this time, he didn't let them process what he had said; instead, he spoke again.
"The second announcement that the Allens have for you is a decision that I have made and that my entire clan supports. It is no secret to anyone that my daughter, Alice Allen, is perhaps the weakest Heiress today. She had a slow start; it was also partly the family's decision. Still, to me, she is the Allen's treasure, the most precious.
Recently she took over the student leadership of the Vampire Academy. Many believe she is not qualified to lead it, so I will prove to them that she is more than qualified." He said and then pulled out a high-quality Vampire Ball and called out to Alice.
She wasted no time and used it.
Many of those present were worried about precisely this. Was she worthy of being at the head of the Academy? Could she even stop two elite students from picking a fight?
Her leadership was called into question, so Alice had to come out and reveal her power so that no one would underestimate her. She didn't know if this was a good thing, but her father was the one who planned it, so Alice thought nothing else of it.
And soon, her combat power, which had risen slightly since the last time, was displayed before everyone.
-Power: 38,100.
The amount of vampiric power this young girl, under the age of 25, had was so absurd that it caused numerous people present to stand up abruptly.
"What the hell!?"
"Impossible!?"
Cries of disbelief were heard throughout the auditorium.
The last they knew of her was that, 2 years ago, she was about to reach 10,000 power. How the hell did she reach 38,000 in such a short time?

That's absurd!
But they couldn't talk, as Gray did it first.
"My daughter's abilities are not very common. They're quite potent, something I've expected from before. So, I think with this, no one will object to her being the Student Leader. I hope you will think carefully about what you say when you talk about her from now on."
The powerful people present wanted to say something against it, as they could not believe such absurd speed. But there was no way a Vampire Ball like that could be wrong.
There were only two people touching it. One of them was Gray—how could he have 38,000, the most powerful man in the world? The other was Alice.
'This girl was that talented? God... That was an increase of more than 10,000 power in 1 year. Isn't that absurd? I wonder how many people have been able to do something like that in the history of the race...' Many people thought like that.
But another kind of thought also emerged in the heads of many of those present.
The number of powerful people who would seek to marry Alice would increase dramatically. Even Heirs with Destiny would want to marry her.
Among those present, the representatives of the Turners and Wagner thought that even Charles Relish, one of the 3 most powerful Heirs, should be interested in marrying Alice now that she had shown incredible talent.
'If Charles Relish and Alice Allen were to marry, not only would they have a way to settle their grudges from the past, but it could unite the two most powerful Clans today. And if, for some reason, Cecily Edevane were to accept Allen's proposal to marry the main Heir, wouldn't it unite the three most powerful Clans? It's something that all three clans would long for,' both representatives thought.
It was no secret to anyone that the marriage union of vampires was something that the Vampire Clans tended to do very often. But there had never been a case where Three Vampire Clans could unite in such a way.
Clan Relish, Clan Edevane, and Clan Allen would want to form such a union and more so at this time when traitors abound everywhere. That would greatly strengthen the race as a whole, for there would be no divisions among the Three Main Pillars.
And although the center of the union would be the Allens, the Turners and the Wagners were sure that Relish and Edevane would accept, because the benefits are enormous.
But such a union could be a danger to the other clans, which is why Turner and Wagner were already planning to return to the Clan to tell their leaders to insist on a wedding between Alice Allen and a certain Heir who had his eyes on her long ago.
But when everyone thought so, Gray Allen opened his mouth again, smiling.
"Now that everyone knows Alice's worth and that she has the full backing of the family, I must introduce Matthew Dietrich, Alice's fiancé. The two of them will be married soon." He said, smiling softly.
