Vampire's Slice Of Life - Chapter 326
Chapter 326 A Condition Given To Alexandra
Chapter 326 A condition given to Alexandra
Lith, Lilith, and Lucy walked into the room where Arya, Alexandra, and Emilia were present.
As Lith arrived, he noticed that the food on the table wasn’t finished and he had gotten up midway. Lith looked at his ladies and said with a smile, “Let’s talk over food.”
The three joined Arya, Alexandra, and Emilia on the dining table and sat near them.
To Lith’s one side was Alexandra and his other side was Lilith and Lucy. Beside Lucy was Emila and to her other side was Arya.
Emilia poured tea for Lilith and Lucy and served them that.
Lilith took the cup and looking at Emilia, she said with a smile, “Ara, my daughter-in-law is so thoughtful.”
Lilith was good to everyone associated with Lith without exception. It was even more so when it came to his harem since she herself was a part of it. Harmony was needed in harem and she was the one to teach Lith that.
Lucy thanked Emilia as well and took a sip of tea.
Emilia just smiled awkwardly as she had no idea what else to do. She just got called daughter-in-law by the Vampire Queen herself, it was… well, she never would’ve imagined that there would be such a day even in her wildest dreams. The other reason for being awkward was that she wasn’t her daughter-in-law yet. Lith was yet to marry Emilia.
Lith forked a piece of chicken and gulping it down, he said to Lilith, “Mom, there’s no one here that you should call as your daughter-in-law. There’s still time for that.”
Lilith chuckled and said, “Right, right. So, when are you going to marry them?”
Everyone’s ears perked up as they heard this. They wanted the answer as well.
Lith could see that they were curious and to satisfy their curiosity, he answered, “When I become a Rank 9.”
“Oh.” Everyone said in unison.
They were surprised knowing that he really did have plans to marry them. Not only that, if they weren’t wrong, it was such a short period as well.
Judging from how Lith was a descendant of a Supreme Rank bloodline, he should be a Rank 9 before he is around 40 years old. This means that in just a few years, he would marry them!
It felt amazing to know!
The happiest person among all was no one else but Emilia. She would soon be worry free and can have Lith do her anywhere he pleases. She wouldn’t have to worry about falling from grace and she also will finally feel the ‘pleasure’ from doing it there. From what she heard from Arya, it feels really amazing over there and she was itching to try that.
Emilia’s face had a slight blush as she thought about this and it didn’t go unnoticed by Lilith.
Lilith took a sip of tea and smiled while looking at Emilia. “Someone’s having naughty thoughts, it seems.”
Everyone turned to look at Emilia as they heard Lilith.
“Eh?” Emilia was surprised for being called out so suddenly. She noticed the gazes on her and clearing her throat, she shook her head and said calmly while trying to hide her blush, “I am not having any naughty thoughts.”
Lilith smiled and replied, “I never said you were the one with naughty thoughts, did I?”
‘Oh shoot.’ Emilia cursed in her mind as she realized her blunder. She became embarrassed and looked down on the tea, trying to avoid meeting the gazes of anyone else.
Everyone giggled as they noticed it. Except Alexandra who only had a small smile on her face.
Lith looked at Alexandra and holding her hand, he said with a smile, “Alexandra, I didn’t introduce myself properly last time, so I’ll do it again now. I am Lith Evure, son of this lady sitting beside me, Lilith Evure, and also brother of the lady there, Lucy Evure. I am the Vampire Prince, she is the Vampire Queen, and over there, Lucy is the Substitute Queen, currently handling and managing everything in the Vampire Continent.”
Alexandra, had she not gotten a calming spell applied on her by Lilith, she would’ve passed out by knowing all of this. She was too happy and too shocked with everything. Thankfully, due to the calming spell, she was calm and digested all information Lith gave her properly.
Alexandra got up from her seat and walked close to Lilith. She then kneeled down and was about to thank Lilith when,
“No need to do such things. I understand your sentiments. I’ll be your mother-in-law in future, no need to be so tense and formal in front of me, okay?”
Lilith made Alexandra get up and said with a smile while patting her cheek lightly.
Alexandra had a drop of tear come out of her expressionless face. She held Lilith’s hand and going down on her knees again, she looked Lilith in the face and said in a calm yet sad tone, “I am so grateful for everything you’ve done for my clan, Your Majes?”
Lilith put a finger on Alexandra’s mouth and sealed her lips. “Silly, I told you to not be so formal with me, didn’t I? Call me mother-in-law, I’ll like that more. And don’t lower yourself so much. Always look a person in the eye and speak, no matter what the circumstances. You’re now my son’s lover, this is the etiquette you should always follow.”
Alexandra got up and nodded her head in understanding.
Lilith smiled and wiped her tears off her face. “Go take your seat. No need to be so emotional over such a small thing.”
It was indeed a small thing for Lilith as she had no idea that she accidentally ended up taking revenge for the Constantine Clan. At that time, she was just enraged and had no idea that the Constantine Clan suffered due to politics among the nobles.
After Alexandra was seated, Lith looked at her and asked, “so now that you know me, that is, who your lover is, you also should know that it’s very easy to wipe the Valentine Clan off. Just one word to me and I can have them be gone forever. Do you want such a thing to happen?”
Lith knew Alexandra was a strong girl. She wouldn’t opt for such easy means and would always strive for vengeance herself, no matter the situation. Still, as her lover and future husband, it was his duty to give her this option and ask her about it and so he did.
Alexandra may act like a love sick fool when with Lith, she was in no way like that in reality when away from him. She was a sadist battle maniac, one who had the mindset that violence solves everything and always went in for the kill whenever possible.
Just as Lith finished his question, Alexandra shook her head and said, “Thank you for being so considerate, darling. But no, I don’t want that to happen. If possible, I want to destroy the Valentine Clan myself. They have given my clan thousands of years of suffering and hardships.”
Lith nodded. It was as he had expected. He took a sip of his drink and as he was doing that, he suddenly had an idea. He put his glass down and looking at Alexandra, he asked with a smile, “Honey, I have an idea to propose. Do you wanna hear it?”
Alexandra nodded. Of course, was it even a question.
Lith smiled and said, “the Valentine Clan right now is just a Viscount Clan, it does not have the same former power as before. They were a Duke Clan before, right?”
Alexandra nodded. “What of it, darling?”
Lith continued, “If you want, I can have them slowly restored to their former strength. But, there will be a catch.”
Alexandra became confused as she heard this. She tilted her head and asked, “What catch?”
“The catch is that there will be a certain time limit. If you don’t defeat the Valentine Clan by that time, I’ll be the one to personally wipe them out and you won’t be able to take your vengeance. How does it sound?”
Everyone smiled hearing this. They roughly understood what was going on and Lith’s condition was very amazing.
Lith was smart to propose this as this would ensure that Alexandra had a healthy amount of pressure on her despite being the lover of the Vampire Prince and her growth wouldn’t stagnate and she also wouldn’t slack.
Not only her, even Lith will have to cultivate hard with this condition.
“I don’t understand.” Alexandra said with a confused expression on her face.
“No worries, I’ll explain again. See, you’ll have, hmm… let’s say, 5,000 years to defeat the Valentine Clan. The Valentine Clan would keep growing, I’ll ensure that, but… so will you. You’ll have your magic rank increased as well.”
“To defeat them, you’ll need to surpass their strength and that you have to do within the next 5,000 years. You are free to attack them whenever you want within the next 5,000 years, but let’s say if you fail to wipe them out completely by the end of this time, I’ll be the one to personally do it. Okay?”
5,000 years was a decent amount of time for a Viscount Clan to become a Count Clan. It basically meant that one person in the clan has undergone ascension from King Rank to Half Emperor Rank if that happens..
Generally, it takes roughly 5,000 to 10,000 years for an elite to become a Half Emperor and so Lith took the lowest value of it and gave it to Alexandra. He wanted her to be a Half Emperor by that time and doing so, he not only ensured that he put pressure on her, he also ensured that he put it on himself as well.
Lith had to be stronger than the entirety of the Valentine Clan by the coming 5,000 years or it would be a big shame. He set this goal so that he doesn’t slack and cultivates hard.
Alexandra understood what Lith was saying finally and nodding her head, she said, “let’s go with what darling has proposed. I like this.”
Lith smiled and patted Alexandra’s head. “Consider it done.”
After he was done talking with her and after everything with Alexandra was sorted, he looked at Emilia and then at Alexandra and said, “ahem, there’s another thing I forgot to mention.”
‘What was it now?’ Not only Alexandra and Emilia, but the others wondered about it as well.
