Vampire's Slice Of Life

1119  You’ll Be Joining Me

If you can make someone imagine their bright future, make them momentarily get a feel of it… there wouldn't be anyone more ambitious and motivated than them. The same tactic would be used on the allies going against the two big clans. Lith went into great details while explaining to the four. Their conversation seemed like it wouldn't end for a while, and they kept discussing the matters of the Evure God Clan and the Asura God Clan.

Lith has a conviction in his heart that he wouldn't return until he made the two clans fall, and seriously busied himself in work. …..

Royal Castle, Nightingale. 'I need to find the Prince! I've finally thought of a way to complete this mission.' A black-haired, black-eyed butler sitting around a long rectangular table inside a luxurious hall with enormous chandeliers and high ceiling, thought to himself as he gazed at his interlocked fingers.  "Let's begin with the work allotment." A crisp voice broke the man's focus and made him turn his head.

Sitting at the end of the table was a beautiful pink-haired maid. Lucas knew she was a fairy, and boy were fairies so damn pretty.  "I'll be on vacation for a while." A man with gentle and holy bearings had his gaze lowered as he said. His demeanor was calm, and his hair's blue locks fell the sides, making him appear really majestic. 'Why is everyone so charming?' Lucas couldn't understand the deal with these servants. In his past life, he knew slightly about the clan, but did not know them as deeply as he did now. Every single servant was devilishly handsome or beautiful! How was this possible? Lucas looked so average and out of place when sitting together with them. If they were polished jades, then he was a coarse pebble. He was depressed as is, and with these guys being around him, he was sinking further into the trenches of sadness.

"You shouldn't go on a vacation right now, Noman. There's quite some unfinished work." Bella said while handing Noman a set of papers.

Noman did not look at them and said calmly, "My ascension is due."

"Oh." Bella understood immediately. She slowly slid the papers back to herself and said, "It's fine then. How long will it take?"

Noman slightly shook his head. "It is challenging to make an estimation."

Bella tapped her index finger on the table and frowned. "Who else can I send to assist His Highness now?"

The moment Lucas heard this sentence, his eyes lit up while he thought, 'The opportunity is here!'

Lucas raised his hand and looked at Bella, catching hers and the rest's attention. He didn't speak as that would mean being audacious and waited until someone said something to him. "What is it, newbie?"

Bella hadn't seen this guy before, so he must be new. "Ma'am, would you please allow me to take this?" Lucas said with a calm and straight face. Bella continued to tap on the table with her index finger and said, "You're just a Saint Rank. You can't assist His Highness or be of use."

"I see. My apologies then." Lucas lowered his hand and sat back down calmly. 'See, system, I tried my best to get out. But it wasn't possible.'

Lucas was eyeing this opportunity from the start, but surprisingly or unsurprisingly got turned down. There was nothing else he could do. The system did not respond to that statement and it was if it was calculating what could be done.

The small interruption of Lucas was overlooked by everyone as they were too busy trying to figure out who could assist the Prince. For some reason, as of this moment, everyone in the Emperor and Supreme Rank category was busy. Noman was the last hope, but even his ascension is coming up and it wouldn't be good to have him stall that.

Bella was in a pinch and couldn't really figure out what to do.

During this moment of contemplation, a hand appeared on her shoulder. Turning to look at it, Bella saw a beautiful maid with thick, seductive proportions standing behind her. "I'll be taking care of this." The lady said in her soft voice.

At her appearance, everyone except Bella stood up and bowed. "Greetings, Chief." Some of the servants said. "Weren't you busy?" Bella asked Luna, who had just arrived at the meeting. "I was." Luna said with a smile. "But Madam asked me to put everything aside and take care of His Highness."

"I see." Bella felt relieved. At least this problem. Was sorted now. Luna did not sit down to participate in the meeting. Instead, she looked in Lucas's direction. "You." Luna called out, making Lucas look at her in surprise. "You'll be joining me."

Lucas's eyebrows flickered, but he bowed and thanked Luna for giving him this opportunity. Lucas did not want to meet Lith. He was overjoyed to have people forbid him from meeting him. The system wouldn't punish him for something that wasn't in his control.

However, now he may be punished. And the punishment would be severe if he did not take the necessary actions. The system was pushing him in a direction to assassinate the Vampire Prince so that the doomsday never appears. The doomsday's main character was the Vampire Prince. It was him who charged at the Evure God Clan with a mighty army and mercilessly killed them on a particular day. If he doesn't exist, then there won't be anyone going against the Evure God Clan.

All these years, the apocalypse referred to the apocalypse that the Evure God Clan would face. Lucas was made to regress by them to save them in the future. It was clear as to why the system was pushing him so much and did not let him speak a single word against them. Lucas sighed internally, but began formulating the things he could do to deal with this situation.

Meanwhile, Luna wondered why the Madam had asked her to take this guy with her. Did he have something special on him that His Highness might need?

Well, it's not like it was her position to question these decisions. She was a simple maid who followed the orders of her Master. There was nothing that made her feel better other than serving her Master, and to do so, after giving some instructions to Lucas, left to pack a few things and leave for the Evergreen Rosette World. Lucas got some time before leaving, and since he was going to assist the Prince, he was given an opportunity to grab whatever he wanted from the castle.

And thus, Lucas used his brain to grab all the necessary items he could go against the owner of these very items.  Nôv(el)B\\jnn
