Chapter 390 Back in Redstone City
Chapter 390 Back in Redstone City
"Wow, that sure is amazing."
Lith said in an amazed tone as he saw his new place.
The Prince's chambers had a dark and red theme to it and the ambience felt really comfortable and cozy to Lith.
The carpet, the walls, the ceiling, the furniture present, everything was designed in a way that it complimented it each other and the theme of the room was well maintained.
This luxurious and big room of Lith's had a big bed, dining table bigger than the one in Lilith's room, two sofa sets at each side of the room and at one side, instead of the walls, there was a big window which was facing the Dark Rose Forest.
It had sliding windows, outside of which there was a big balcony. The room was at a high level and he could experience the breeze if he went out.
'They definitely made sure to make it even more luxurious than mom's room.' Lith thought to himself as he looked at his new room with an amused expression.
On the bed, his ladies were sitting cross-legged and looking at him, waiting for him to come to them and sleep.
Lith's attention shifted from the room to the beauties sitting on the bed. He walked towards them and sat down cross-legged on the middle of the bed.
"Phew. I can finally have sleep as much as I want!" Lith exclaimed as he slumped back on the side.
Arya, Emilia, and Lilith chuckled as they noticed this and Lucy and Alexandra simply smiled.
Lith hugged Emilia and Lucy on the sides and Alexandra lay on top of him. Arya hugged Emilia and Lilith hugged Lucy. In this snuggling position, the six slept soundly.
Two days later.
Lith woke up feeling refreshed and energized. It was really a very good sleep. Though he was a vampire, he really enjoyed the warmth coming from the bodies of his ladies as he snuggled and slept with them.
Lith greeted his wives good morning and went to the washroom to freshen up.
After coming out of the bathroom, Lith went to the dining table in his room and all his wives joined him there.
Lith got himself a simple warm bowl of soupy noodles. The ladies got themselves food as well and while having food, they started chatting.
"So, what are the plans of my daughter-in-laws?" Lilith took a sip and asked.
Arya put down her teacup and said, "Emmy needs help in academy affairs, I'll go help her with it."
Emilia nodded. "I'll be going back to the academy with Arya and get back to work."
"I'll follow big sis Arya." Alexandra said while biting on a piece of croissant. She had a lot of things to learn from Arya and so it was best to follow her, she had such thoughts and was following those.
"And I'll be getting back to handling the affairs of vampire society and do my job as the Substitute Queen." Lucy answered.
As for Lith, he gulped down the noodles and looking at Lilith, he said, "I'll go back to the Shadow River Sect. I've got to deal with the war and gain some experience from it."
Lilith put on a pondering expression as she heard that. She then took a sip of her tea again and said, "but the energy in your body isn't fully absorbed yet. You would need their help to calm it down."
Lith shook his hand and said, "it's alright, not too big of an issue. I'll be able to manage."
Emilia shook her head as she heard that and said what all the ladies had in their minds:
"No, that won't do. I'll postpone my things. Let's have you fully healed first."
The others nodded their heads in agreement.
Lith smiled and said, "so sweet. But don't worry, I'll really manage."
Lilith shook her head this time and said, "No, you are not going anywhere until you're fully healed."
Lith sighed. "Trust me, I'll be okay."
Everyone looked at him with squinted eyes.
"You'll definitely not be okay." They all said.
Lith was surprised to see them be so unified on this topic. He chuckled and gave up going out after noticing their determination.
"Alright, I'll go out after the energies are absorbed." Lith agreed finally.
The ladies all had a happy smile on their faces and they continued to chat and have food.
…..
A week passed.
Redstone City, Neutral Continent.
All the energy in Lith's body was fully absorbed by now and he was back in his optimum state. The chaotic energies sure caused a lot of trouble to him, but his wives helped him resolve it easily.
Lith had lost track of how many times he actually ended up having sex with them in this past week.
.
But as everything was over now, Lith was back to the sect.
He could feel that his ascension was near, but he could also feel that he was lacking something. To fill this gap, Lith thought that the best course of action would be to go to war and see things for himself. He'll be on the Shadow River Sect's side and act accordingly and do things.
Lith didn't go straight to the Shadow River Sect after arriving in Redstone City, rather, he was walking through the city to see what all things have changed here in the past few years that he was gone.
Walking through the city, the rotting scent of corpses assaulted Lith's nose and he could see butchered corpses of a lot of different types of people from different races and blood and bones everywhere.
The buildings of the city were in ruins and painted red, black, and blue colors of blood of the different people dying here.
Lith didn't feel nauseated as he smelled these stuff, just disgusted. He was a vampire and used to the taste and smell of blood and such grotesque scenes weren't really something that bothered him. He only felt disgusted because the dried up blood and corpses, it was equivalent to smelling and looking at shit to him.
Lith observed who these people that were dead in these piles of corpses were but he had no idea about anything.
Redstone City was officially declared a temporary Conflict Zone and people from all around came here and duked it out with each other.
That, along with the two clan members killing the sect members and vice versa was the reason for such a scene in this city.
The two clans and the sect didn't go all out yet and were slowly accumulating power to unleash themselves onto one another and finally be the winners of this war.
Losing or winning these small battles didn't matter much to them and it was only acting as uncovering one layer of their enemies and it had been seven long years since they started doing this.
Now, as some time had passed, the war was entering its middle stage. The initial one had passed and after the middle was done, it would be the final stage after which the war would end.
Lith was wearing a formal white shirt and blue pants and was going through the battlefield looking like some elegant noble of a big family of a main race.
With his charms alone and him walking in with an elegant demeanor on the battlefield, Lith soon attracted some flies.
"Wait there!" Someone shouted in Lith's direction.
Lith looked back to see who it was and noticing that it was just a ghoul that shouted and was moving in his direction, Lith ignored it and continued to stroll.
"I SAID WAIT!" The ghoul shouted again.
"Where the fuck do you think you're going by not listening to the words of the squad leader!" A few ghouls joined the ghoul who had just shouted and yelled stuff at Lith themselves.
"Don't you dare ignore the squad leader!"
Lith stopped hearing that and once again turned to look at the ghouls coming towards him.
The ghouls immediately closed in on Lith as they saw him move and reaching just a few meters from him, the ghoul, also the squad leader of the rest, said in a creepy tone,
"Boy, where do you think you're roaming? This is the territory of the noble vampire Ultrix. You have invaded the territory of the noble vampire and since this is your first offence, consider yourself lucky. Now pay up ten amethyst coins for trespassing accidentally here and we'll choose to ignore this offense you just committed."
Lith stared at the guy for a few seconds and then decided to ignore him and get back to his work. This guy was just a scammer and since it was the ghouls that were talking, Lith didn't give two shits about it and went about his work.
The threat of these ghouls was no different than the annoying buzzing sound flies made. Ghouls were created by vampires originally and were still being created. It was a subsidiary race of the vampires and no vampire, even the weakest and poorest one, had any respect for them.
The ghouls felt annoyed and irritated as they saw Lith ignore them again. They couldn't take it anymore and since they were from a species that wasn't able to properly use their brains and think logically, they decided to attack Lith.
The ghouls charged towards Lith and the squad leader ghoul yelled,
"BOY! YOU DARE–"
"Get lost."
SPLAT! SPLAT! SPLAT!
The bodies of the ghouls immediately burst apart as Lith extended his aura and put a heavy suppression on them.
The ghouls weren't able to handle this suppression or even resist it as Lith's bloodline was a really powerful vampire one and he was also at the peak of Rank 9, about to ascend at any moment into Half Saint Rank.
Lith ignored the flies he had just swatted and continued with his stroll.
A few hundred kilometres away from Lith…
Ding! Ding! Ding!
"What?" A pale looking black-haired guy in a suit exclaimed as he heard the sound of the bells ring in his office.
He immediately walked in a certain room and looked at the stones tablets present there. The stone tablets were present in a hierarchical manner on a platform and he noticed that four stones in the upper middle section of the platform had been broken.
"Shit! That was not a wrong notification! Four Rank 8 ghouls indeed died!" The man exclaimed.
He soon calmed down after his initial shock and thought to himself, "is there a new player that has entered this zone? Or did the ghouls encounter someone stronger than them? No… that shouldn't be possible. The ghouls can detect who is strong and who is not."
"But… What if that person was hiding his prowess? Could be. But what if it wasn't some big shot, but simply a vampire? Tsk. It really isn't reliable to assume stuff from the deaths of the ghouls. I'll use that method to check stuff."
The man then went into another room. This room contained a lot of bones and blood and he dropped his blood on a black skull present on a platform in the middle of the room.
Soon, the skull turned gray and the man wiped his sweat and said, "So it was a vampire. But the question is, was it a bigshot vampire or a normal one? Hmm… I'll go see for myself."
The man left the room and walked towards where the ghouls had died, to see who was the killer.
