*Flap* *Flap* *Flap* đđŻđxt.đđđ
2 Bats flew inside a lavish room and turned into humanoid figures, the servants who were hiding inside the room widened their eyes in surprise when they noticed the man who was with their lord.
The 4 servants quickly revealed their locations and instantly kneeled on the ground with their heads bowed,
âYour Highness.â
They greeted.
Alaric just nodded with a smile.
His gentle face gave off an approachable vibe.
âCall Lady Ambrosia, Melia, and Nux,
Tell them that His Royal Highness is here to see them.â
Orpheus spoke.
âAs you command, Lord Orpheus.â
The servants nodded and then, they disappeared.
Alaric glanced at Orpheus and smiled meaningfully.
âThis is the second time you protected him now.â
Orpheus didnât react.
âSo you finally decided to show yourself!â
2 minutes later, the door of the room burst open and a woman with long white hair walked in with a slightly angry look on her face.
âAmbrosia.â Seeing the woman, Alaric smiled gently and greeted her.
âWho invited you, huh? Go back, you are only allowed here as the King of the Blood Kingdom, and a King can only visit a Dukeâs House after a proper announcement, you canât just barge into our house like thi-â
Before Ambrosia could complete her sentence, Alaric suddenly appeared right in front of her and hugged him.
Ambrosia or Orpheus couldnât even react to his movement, as for Alaric, he just hugged his sister with a loving smile on his face.
âOi Oi! Donât hug me like that! Stay awa-â
âI missed you, Sister.â
Alaric spoke in an earnest sister.
Ambrosia paused for a second, however, soon, she placed her hand on Alaricâs head and tried to push him again,
âI get it, I get it, now move away! I wonât forgive you this easily!â
âAmbrosia, you canât stay mad at your big brother for such a long time.â
âYou forgot my Centuria!â
âI didnât forget it, I was busy. There was somewhere I needed to be!â
âUh huh? Sure, the strongest being on the continent had somewhere to be, so much so that he couldnât even visit his sister for 5 minutes.
I am not a fool, brother. I may not look like it, but nothing major that required your attention happened around that time.â
âDo you really think I would forget my sisterâs birthday?â
âWhy do you think I am angry? I did not expect this from you.â
âI wished you the moment I returned, I didnât forget it.â
âSister Iliana must have told you, donât treat me like a fool.â
In the end, Alaric just turned toward his only savior,
âOrpheus, help me. Tell her that I was summoned!â
âYou are the one who summons others, not the other way around. Who could possibly summon you?â
Ambrosia questioned.
ââŚâ
Alaric turned silent.
Seeing this, Orpheus knew that he had to intervene,
âDarling, you need to be the bigger person here. You canât possibly stay mad at your brother for such a long time, can you? Look, you arenât even pushing him away now.â
Ambrosia finally realized that Alaric was still hugging her and she started pushing him away,
âGo away! You damn! Why are you so strong!!â
Ambrosia cried, as for Alaric, he didnât even budge.
The scene looked quite comical, no one would believe that the characters of this scene were all thousands of years old.
Just like how Melia, Nux, and his wives⌠who were seeing everything from outside the room could not believe what they were seeingâŚ
Honestly, they had prepared themselves, especially Nux and his wives, they were about to meet the King of the Blood Kingdom, after all.
They were going to meet the strongest existence in the entire blood continent, it needed a ton of mental preparation for thatâŚ
However, the moment they reached hereâŚ
They all froze.
The door was already opened and a white-haired man, who was most probably the King of the Blood Kingdom was hugging Meliaâs mother, while she was trying to push him away.
âAhem Ahemâ
*Knock* *Knock*
Melia finally knocked on the door and announced her entrance.
Alaric finally noticed Melia and the others who were standing in front of him and moved away.
Ambrosia turned around and noticed them as well.
She blushed in embarrassment, and seeing that expression, Nux gulped.
The woman who always had that playful smile and that charming confidence⌠a woman like Ambrosia Bloodheart was blushing in front of himâŚ
It was a sight he could never forget.
âYou are here.â
Orpheus called out.
âUncle.â
Melia greeted as she walked into the room and hugged Alaric with a small smile on her face.
Nux and his wives, on the other hand, bowed their heads,
âYour Highness.â
Seeing them, Alaric, who was hugging his niece frowned and questioned,
âWho are they?â
âThat man is the leader of the Meliaâs Clan, Nux Leander and those beautiful women behind him are his wives.â
âHe is a humanâŚâ Alaric muttered.
âThat is correct.â
Orpheus nodded.
Alaric then glanced at Nux, Nux felt a suppressive force that made it hard for him to breathe, he looked back and seeing the curious expression on Alaricâs face, he knew this man wasnât doing it intentionally, it was an involuntary action.
His gaze was just that powerfulâŚ
âA Complete Cultivator, huh.â
Alaric muttered with a small smile on his face.
âNow I can see what Melia saw in him.â
He then looked into Nuxâs golden eyes, Nux felt like his body moved on its own, his head lifted up and his eyes looked back into Alaricâs eyes.
Then suddenly, Nux realized that he was in a completely different place. He was standing on a red-colored liquid that was most probably blood.
He looked around and noticed that he was in a huge place that seemed to have no end and there was blood flowing all over the place.
*Step* *Step*
Nux stepped back, this movement was louder than normal since he was stepping on the Blood.
Nux tried contacting his wives, however, he realized that he couldnât access the telepathic connection right now.
âAre you their student, human?â
Suddenly, Nux heard a question.
