Eventually, the coffins entered the gates of Metropolis, prompting the royal guards to create tighter security and prevent anyone from simply walking through the road and blocking the parade.
As soon as the coffins entered the gates, they stopped in place.
The crowd waited with bated breaths before the sound of creaking wood echoed through the streets. One by one, the coffins opened up as men and women with pale skin floated up from their lying position. They all wore a black robe that they draped all over their bodies, shielding most of their skin from the sun.
Gasps and whispers echoed out as people began talking to themselves, amazed at seeing Vampires for the first time in their lives.
"Woah… they look menacing."
"Hey, don't be rude! Vampires are just like any other people."
"They're so strong that I can feel their power in the air!"
