Chapter 377 Meanwhile
Meanwhile, the pale pink-haired girl glanced around the beach and muttered, “Weird. I sensed malicious energy from this place, so I came here to get rid of it. But I don’t see anyone. I was on the other side of this world, so it took me a while to come here. But am I in the correct place?
Why are my powers acting like this? I get powers from ‘master’, so unless his powers are currently not fully awakened, I can’t think of any other possibility. That would mean I wouldn’t be able to find him even if he was in front of me.”
SIGH!
“I should keep looking for him. This era of the human world also seems interesting. There are so many new things. I find it hard to believe that humans invented such things.
They were so weak and helpless back then, but now… they dare to zap me with their— a weapon they called—a taser gun for not paying for the food. They even made me wash dishes as compensation.”
“Hmph!” She puffed her cheeks and stomped her feet on the ground in anger.
“If only I hadn’t promised my master that I would hurt a soul, I would have shown them my wrath. Master, where are you? I want you to praise me for the good girl I have been today. You better spoil me rotten~”
The girl looked at the sea waves and walked towards them. She kept walking even though
the water was reaching to her knees. And she eventually submerged into the water.
At the same time in the vampire world, Rias was in her room in the palace, getting ready for bed after having a nice dinner.
She was doing her hair on the vanity table and humming a familiar song while looking at her reflection in the mirror.
“Princess Rias…” Vriti called out to her and said, “Your bed is ready.”
“Thanks, Vriti. You may go now.”
Even though Rias had permitted Vriti to go, Vriti stood behind Rias and looked at her with an anxious face.
Rias looked at Vriti in the mirror and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Vriti gulped down anxiously and uttered, “Princess, what do you like about that human?”
Rias furrowed her brows and said, “His name is Rudy.”
Vriti took a deep breath and asked, “What do you like about Rudy?”
“You are not allowed to call him by his name. Call him master like your mother does,” she said calmly.
‘There is no way I am calling that human my master!’ she yelled inwardly.
“He is not a trustworthy man, princess,” Vriti said in a low voice.
“What do you even know about him?”
“I didn’t want to tell you this as it would surely break your heart and ruin your relationship with princess Jane, but your lover laid hands on princess Jane and defiled her while you were resting in your slumber,” Vriti stated with a regretful face.
“I am already aware of it,” Rias responded casually.
“Then why do you…”
“Because I love him. Jane loves him too. And I am fine with him having a harem.”
“A h-harem?! Princess, you are a royal. You have pride. You can’t let some man use—”
Rias placed down the brush and turned to Vriti with a smile on her face. She grabbed her hands and said:
“Vriti, I know you don’t like men, especially the ones like Vesier— your father. But Rudy isn’t like that. He cares about Jane and me, just like the other girls in his harem. You don’t know him well, so please don’t judge him,” she said calmly.
“I am just… trying to save you from the pain…”
“I know,” she nodded. “I know that you are worried about it. To me, you are like my mother, and every mother worries about her child. That’s natural. But Vriti, Rudy is the most lovely person I have ever met.
Do you think that I would fall in love with someone so easily?” She asked with a judging look on her face.
“I…” Vriti stuttered as she struggled to say something in response.
“Forget about me. Jane, you know her. Do you truly think someone as haughty as Jane could fall in love with the man I love?”
“No…”
“I will not force you to change your opinions about Rudy. You will come with me when we go to the human world and see for yourself.”
“Wait… the human world?” Vriti’s eyes widened after hearing that. “You are planning to go to the human world?!”
“Yes. And not only me but Jane and Niti too.”
“What?! There is no way the Vampire Monarch would allow such a—”
“He has already agreed to it.”
“But I haven’t! I will never go to a human world!” she refuted.
Rias stared into Vriti’s eyes for a few seconds and said, “Whether you come with me or not, I am going.”
“You mustn’t, princess! The human world is dangerous!”
“Even if it is, I have Rudy to protect me.” Rias shrugged her shoulders and continued, “And if you truly care about my well-being, then you should come with me.”
“That’s not fair of you, princess. You are manipulating me…”
“You have time to decide whether you want to come or not. I will not force you, Vriti. But my decision will never change.”
After a few seconds of silence, Vriti bowed down to Rias and said, “I will take my leave now. Have a good night.”
“Good night.”
Vriti left Rias’ room and closed the door behind her.
SIGH!
“I don’t know if it was a good idea to not tell her that even her mother— Niti, has an intimate relationship with Rudy. I don’t think she hates Rudy, but she has a bad impression of him. I wouldn’t blame her, though. If I wasn’t in love with Rudy and I saw her fooling around with my sister, I would be angry too. But that doesn’t justify anything.”
Rias got up from the chair and looked at the blue moon from the window.
“I wonder if Jane is asleep already.”
Jane was indeed sleeping in her room. However, her consciousness was somewhere else.
“Why… am I here again…?” Jane asked as her body trembled.
She was in the desert of the blue moon.
