Valken continued on but then he was stopped by the sight of a large armored demon. At first he staggered in his gait but once he realized that the thing moving towards him was an illusion, he relaxed. He could tell immediately because of a lack of an aura that meant that there was a lack of a 'physical' presence. The look of eliphas could not intimidate him, the only thing he could go on was the voice and that did not phase him. 
Valken listened to his banter and smiled, shaking his head. Before he could give a rebuttal, a tree entity emerged and that called valken's attention more than the mirror image of eliphas because it was physically there. Valken felt the illusion drain the tree entity's aura slowly while he spoke some more. Valken became disappointed.
"I would think something as old as you would know that I am not vampire like. Vampires are FIEND-like. We were first, not them. Second of all, I surround myself with food just like any other being would. Third, I was smelling Cassandra, what's it to you? Again as a being that consumes and has needs, an eternal drive to live that's what I do. " he glared at the mention of his mother but it turned into a smile. "Go a head. See what happens." He taunted know that his mother was practically god like and the only reason why she was not interfering while he was. 

Valken sat on the ground and felt the eliphas disappear. He was left alone again.
