Chapter 109: The vampire kingdom
| If you guys do not know, I do have a short special called the 100th chapter special, you can check it out, it isn't canon |
I then stepped in the warp gate and reappeared at the other side, and a few guards pointed their spears at me but lowered it the moment Urie stepped out followed by Rex. We were in front of some sort of small crimson castle and it seems like we were underground because there is just a ceiling of rocks and walls of them as far as I can see.
"Ah greetings your majesty" the leader of the small vampire knights bowed "I was not expecting your return this early, excuse our earlier actions towards your companions"
"That's quite alright" Urie chuckled "Let's not turn this into too big of a deal, though I might have forgotten to tell you about my early arrival"
He then turned to me.
"Welcome to my castle, you can make yourself at home" he smiled and then told the guards "These 2 are my guest, and that young one is my child, so please treat them accordingly"
The guards then turned to look at me in shock.
"Our aloof prince...sired a child?" A guard mumbled in shock
"Don't-"
"Tell the cooks, we must prepare a feast!" The leader of the guards ordered as the others cheerfully followed his order while Urie smiled at my misfortune
-I regret coming here- I facepalmed -The stupid misunderstanding cliché, perfect timing for it to come now-
-Well your fault for wanting to be a dhampir- Dabria replied

We were in a castle sitting at a large table just the 3 of us while the servants were placing food on the table
-There are too many items here that make me wanna puke, blood puree, and blood cake, I'm still part human-
"So is there some other type of food apart from this? Like you know, non-blood-related food?"
"Of course" Urie answered "We sometimes serve food to non-vampires as well, but I have already told the chefs"
It didn't take long till I got served a large piece of medium-rare steak with sides of some grilled vegetables along with some other meats as well.
"Now we're talking"
"We will have deserts as well," Urie said as I and Rex dug into our meal "We have those 'ice-creams' like the ones your family created, the business is booming down here"
"So you know that what my family does as well, great job getting the info since I'm going to join you guys anyway, when will you tell me your organization's goal?"
"We will" Urie replied "But since you're not technically one of us yet, we can't tell you, have you consumed those pills that Draven made?"
"No, since I'm still a student, I'll just continue being what I currently am"
"Which is a dhampir, no need to hide it, my servants have seen you consume regular food, won't be long till everyone else finds out" Urie responded "And it definitely won't be long till everyone finds out you can also use blood magic"
"Yeah with you being part vampire, your power of blood magic will be significantly boosted" Rex added "According to the legends, every vampires used to have its power, but then the gods deemed them to be too powerful with it, so now only a few blessed ones will be able to"
-That's partially true- Dabria mind-nodded
"So after this feast or whatever, where will we go next?"
"A little shopping trip for any souvenirs if you want and then I plan on introducing you to the others" he answered
"The others? Do you mean the other princes/ princesses?"
"Correct" he nodded "My son is so smart!"
"Please seriously, don't call me that"

Eleanor is in her room, playing with her bond, the little tiger cub, till she hears a knock on the door.
"Come in" She said as he then sat up "Oh it's just you, Castor"
"That's no way to address your older brother" the guy smiled
He was around 175cm tall, same red hair and blue eyes, he is dressed in his blue pajamas as he enter.
"So what do you need from me?" Eleanor asked
"No need to be like that, I just came to talk to my sister and her bond" Castor smiled
"What do you really need, Castor?"
"See, our half siblings, are now planning on overthrowing our father" Castor responded as he sat next to her on her bed "This is the letter that I got from one of my spies, James is the mastermind"
"Why are you showing me this?!" Eleanor panicked as she read the letter
"We need allies, Eleanor, if my sources are correct, 1/3 of the nobles household will back them, we need your 2 friends on our side"
"Why can't our kingdom just take a break?!" Eleanor exclaimed "Does father and Charlotte know about this?"
"Charlotte does, we can't show it to father, he won't believe us" Castor shook his head "Our half-siblings has started to move, won't be long till our kingdom gets into civil war"
"So you want Perseus and Albert involved?! And you want me to exploit my friendship with them?!"
"They got dragons, Eleanor, they are powerful allies, besides at least Albert is a citizen of this kingdom, we can pull allies like him in, as for Perseus and his skills, we can just hire him as our mercenary" Castor replied "We have no choice, you know how power hungry father's concubine are, and their children are even worse"
"So what about our side? How many backers do we have?" Eleanor asked as she calmed down, taking it all in
"Also 1/3, the others will remain neutral when it all goes around, our sister is preparing all she can, father will find out soon enough, but he might escalate the situation, so tell them soon, but tell them in secret, if we can, I plan to not have blood on my hands"
