Council of the Neutral Continent.
Arbour was browsing through a few papers regarding the administration of the continent.
It was a boring yet calm day as usual.
After almost nine decades of being a butler of the Vampire Royal Family, Arbour had finally settled down and considered this his home.
Life just couldn't get any better than this for him. At first he hated being turned into a slave, but as time passed on, he kept thinking, was this really slavery?
Nobody tortured him. Nobody forced him to do something he didn't like. Nobody even bothered him, actually. It was a bit lonely in the initial few years due to this.
Arbour had never even imagined that what he thought would be hell, was actually heaven.
He was free to do whatever he wanted as long as he did the work given to him by his superiors, aka Bella and Luna.
Bella was a Supreme Rank like him, but she was far stronger than he could ever imagine. And although the chief was an Emperor Rank and not a Supreme, Arbour could guess that in a few more years, she would become stronger than him as well.
Not only her, even Noman and Ruben would leave him behind in a few years.
There was a faint pressure that Arbour felt from them and this caused him to work harder to not be left behind.
Work, cultivate, relax.
These were the three things Arbour did every single day and life was good.
While absorbed in work, Arbour heard a knock on his door.
"Come in," he said, without bothering to see who it was.
A butler walked in and said, "senior, you have been summoned back to the castle."
Arbour nodded his head lightly. "Anything else?"
"Yes. It's His Highness that wants to see you," the butler replied, surprising Arbour.
'Am I finally needed for something?' Arbour thought, feeling somewhat emotional.
He got up from his chair and correcting his tie, said, "I'll be back in a while. Until then, Kyonumarru is in command."
…..
Royal Castle, Nightingale.
Lith was in the courtyard, getting fed grapes by Fanny while Keith sat on his lap and held the tablet.
The mother-daughter pair didn't like what they were doing, but had no choice but to obey. This was their fate now.
As for Lith, he didn't even like grapes.
A wise had man once said: 'Vegetables taste like sad'.
Although grapes weren't vegetables, the only fruit Lith was ever interested in consuming was the forbidden fruit.
Ah right, cherries, peaches, and nectar-rich flowers as well… but that was another topic altogether.
He was having grapes right now simply to make Fanny unhappy. If she wasn't tortured a little, she would start overthinking and try to escape for all the wrong reasons.
As for Fei, this girl was massaging his shoulders and wondering whether she did the right thing to follow Lith or not. Unlike Keith and Fanny, she had a choice, and she chose to follow Lith instead of running away.
Only time would tell if her choice was right or not, and for now, she could only just go with the flow.
A few minutes of waiting later, Luna arrived with Bella and Arbour.
Bella looked as sexy as ever with her pink hair cascading down till her buttocks. Looking at her would make people understand what a fairy truly was. Even the innocent and cute angels couldn't hold a candle to her.
As for Arbour, he was a normal looking human, nothing more, nothing less. He didn't have a demonic aura and fierce personality like Ruben or appeared holy, calm, and serious like Noman.
Though, surprisingly, he was more powerful than those two guys. It made Lith understand that one didn't need a screw loose to become a Supreme Rank.
Bella and Arbour did a respectful bow to Lith and getting up, Bella asked with a charming smile, "How may we be of help, Your Highness?"
Lith tapped on Keith's butt lightly, gesturing her to get up. She immediately got away and shot a hateful glare at him.
Lith ignored her and stretching himself, said, "We're going to the Elven Continent to meet a guy."
Bella nodded while Arbour intensely took mental notes to not miss out on any information. He wanted to be as useful as possible to the Prince.
Lith took support of the table behind him and leisurely said, "That guy's troublesome and almost on par in prowess as my aunts. I'm going to have a conversation with him and if things go south, I want you two to intervene and escape. Understood?"
Bella and Arbour nodded their heads. No questions such as why the Prince was meeting such a dangerous person or what he wanted to achieve by this were asked.
Those two were servants, their job was to serve their master with no questions asked.
Arbour was trained well by Noman and Ruben to be in such a state while Bella was the first maid so, it was natural for her to be like this.
Lith then turned to Luna and asked, "the phylacteries are in place, right?"
"Yes, Your Highness." Luna answered.
"Alright, take Fanny and Fei with you and keep watch at that place." Lith instructed.
Luna bowed in response saying it will be done while Fanny and Fei followed suit by bowing. They weren't used to this, but had to adapt to their circumstances.
Lith then walked towards Keith and held her hand. She wanted to slap it away, but stopped herself from doing so.
"Let's go to the Elven Continent then." Lith said and walked to the teleportation circle in the castle.
…..
Elven Continent.
Far away from civilization in the Elven Continent, at the very north of the continent was a small wooden shack.
Outside this wooden shack, a burly and rough looking man, wearing clean but poor looking clothes, was grilling fish over fire.
It was afternoon and close to sunset. He was preparing his dinner just like everyday else and staring at the calm sea in front of him with a serene gaze.
At this moment, in the forest behind him, he could hear the sound of twigs being broken. Someone seemed to be approaching.
The man's expression was still calm despite knowing some stranger was closing in on him. It
It had been nine something decades since he last had any interaction and entered seclusion. Yet, someone arriving so suddenly didn't startle him.
The man continued to cook his fish, pretending no one was here.
A few minutes later, the footsteps got closer and as the person entered his territory, the man could feel his aura.
Just as he did that, the man's eyes widened in shock and immediately rose to his feet to see the person.
The serene look disappeared from the man's eyes as he had a look at the young man in front of him. What was there now was a look of utter terror within those gray eyes.
"Y-y-you…" the man said in a hoarse voice.
The young man, wearing a regal black suit and having his silver hair flow freely, scared the man.
The man didn't know who this guy was, but this aura… it was enough to express everything.
The young man in front of him smiled.
"I thought you'd kill me the moment you see me, Mr. Ilyas. It seems the information I read was wrong."
Ilyas, the rough looking man, couldn't help but ask, "that aura… w-w-who?"
He was too terrified to speak properly.
"Relax." The young man said and walked towards the fish getting grilled.
Picking up one of the cooked fishes, the young man had a taste of it and said, "not bad. Simple dishes like this are good too at times."
He then sat down and staring at the waves, asked, "have a seat, Mr. Ilyas, I am not here to harm you."
Ilyas didn't know what to make of this situation. He could only just do as the young man had asked for now.
The young man handed him a fish and said, "I am Lith, the only Prince of all Vampires in this world."
Surprise flashed over Ilyas's face. He wondered what a big personality like this was doing here.
Lith looked at the waves in front and chewing on the fish, asked, "are you enjoying the peace and quiet?"
From Lith's tone, Ilyas felt this young man was here to ask him something. What it was, he didn't know. But one thing he was sure of was that his location wasn't easy to find.
It was so difficult that even if all the Supremes combined their powers, they'd still have difficulty locating him.
Unless…
Ilyas turned to look at Lith.
He had never seen such a face before or anyone related to it, but this aura, he was sure of who it belonged to.
Just remembering the day Ilyas came in contact with the person of this aura sent a shiver down his spine.
If it was that person, then it made sense as to how he was found.
'No wonder… No wonder why I wasn't killed that day…'
