Conquering The Novel

Silvia directed the pilot to land at the next port, which was still pretty far away, as we couldn't advance to the Kingdom of Demetria on this airship due to its slow speed.

So, we decided to land at the nearest port and use the warp gate.

Silvia then went to deal with the delivery of goods and assigned one of her most trusted people to transfer the goods to the floating island.

She'll also be making some travel arrangements for us. As we will need to travel from the port of the Kingdom of Damatria to the Solstice stadium as well.

So in the meantime, I decided to inquire about Irethiel's skills.

And time passed as I listened to her nonsensical explanation, and still couldn't decide which skill to choose.

"...."

After hours of travel, we finally arrived at one of the ports. We arrived pretty late since we had only recently taken off, and of course, because the airship was also quite slow.

Many port executives hurried to greet Silvia as soon as we set anchor at the nearest port.

Silvia, on the other hand, simply ignored them as if they did not exist, and proceeded to the warp gate.

Even though many individuals were waiting in line to use the warp gate.

She simply walked past them and stood directly in front of the gate, while her guards stopped anyone from approaching her.

Silvia then beckoned me to enter the gate.

"...."

I was shocked when I saw her going around as if she own the place, and no one tried to stop her.

She was treated as if she were a celebrity or a princess, even though she is not, and the irony is that they disregarded me, the true prince.

However, her handling of the situation was very much to my liking, so I overlooked their insolence.

"W-Which location would you like to warp to, Miss Silvia?" The warp gate gatekeeper inquired.

"To the Kingdom of Demetria." She stated.

The gatekeeper simply nodded his head as Silvia and I entered the warp gate, accompanied by Irethiel, who was now sitting on my shoulder in her crow form.

***

We arrived at the harbor in the Kingdom of Demetria in no time, and Silvia's secretary was already waiting for her.

She rushed up to Silvia and greeted her, while Silvia simply nodded.

She then directed us to the vehicle that would take us to the Solstice Stadium.

The Merchant Association owns and operates the Solstice Stadium, which is, one of the continent's largest stadiums.

It has very substantial security, even when compared to the Floating Islands, it hosts several games on regular days, and it also has many gambling dens.

The famous games include gladiator battles, chariot racing, and battle royales, among many others.

It is well-known among the nobility, who place large wagers and love watching the gory life-and-death battles.

In the story, Lucas also took part in one of the coliseum games, to save one of the slaves by fighting as her representative.

And subsequently, that slave joined his party.

As we approached the vehicle that was waiting for her, I came out of my thoughts and scrutinized the vehicle.

The vehicle was a luxurious black limousine with a glass divider between the driver's seat and the passenger compartment.

We both entered the limousine, and one of the security guards opened the door for us.

Silvia then indicated that they would follow them in another vehicle. Despite the secretary's insistence that she had some urgent matters to discuss, she declined, leaving us alone in the car.

The driver, of course, couldn't see us because of the glass partition.

So, Silvia approached me as the vehicle began to move, sat on my lap, crossed her hands across my neck, and asked.

"May I?"

Her audacious approach left me stunned.

"..."

Well, she was occupied the entire time and didn't have time to relieve her thirst, and she was also a big help in getting me to the Kingdom of Demetria.

And since she is also my fiancee, I am not doing anything wrong.

I reasoned with myself and agreed, nodding.

Silvia's face lit up with a broad smile, exposing her vampire teeth as soon as she got my permission, and she bit my neck.

"Ahk," I groaned in sharp pain.

"...."

While Irethiel who witnessed the whole scene gave me a skeptical look.

"He accepted a vampire so easily?" Irethiel thought to herself, seeing how Ares didn't seem to be bothered by a vampire. Which would make him an adversary of the church.

***

I let her have her fill, while I peered out the limousine window. The Kingdom of Demetria was as dreary as the hours before morning.

The fight might start in a few hours, and if we keep driving at this rate, we might make it to the stadium before it starts.

The fact that we made it here before the battle even began was truly incredible.

Because of how slowly the airship was traveling, I was concerned that we wouldn't be able to arrive even after the fight ended.

After a few moments, I stopped pondering and checked my status screen to see how far I had progressed.

************************

'My skill masteries are rising quickly, but I still don't have a good weapon to use.' I was thinking to myself.

I know a dungeon where Diana could have obtained the legendary bow. But I'm not sure if I should keep it for myself.

But I'm still not strong enough to explore a dungeon with a legendary weapon.

Dungeons are distinct from monster gates, in that they are of two types:

The first type of dungeon is the one that, the great heroes of the past built to pass down their artifacts or their any other techniques. They devised numerous tests, to ensure that only the deserving individual could carry on their legacies.

Even Ivica's father, The Legendary Man, had built a dungeon to carry down his legacy.

And the next type of dungeon holds the sealed demon lords, which are lost in space and will reappear when the seal is broken.

While I was pondering, the pain in my neck subsided. And When I glanced at Silvia, I found that she had stopped sucking my blood and was sleeping.

"...."

I turned to face Irethiel and asked her a question telepathically.

"Do vampires need to sleep?"

"They must, of course, rest. Ancient vampires slept for hundreds of years "She elaborated.

I was speechless after hearing her vague explanation because I already knew that the ancient vampires sleep for that long merely to pass the time, but they don't need sleep, because they are known as undead beings for a reason... At least, that's what I've seen in anime and read in books.

'She doesn't have a knack for explaining,' I thought to myself.

"We don't need to sleep because we don't get physically tired quickly, but we do it because we can feel intellectually bored, so the old vampires sleep to pass time. As It takes a lot of energy to stay awake for millennia" Silvia commented while still sitting on my lap.

"I thought you were sleeping," I said.

"Well, it was rather pleasant in your embrace, so I decided to relax a little," she responded with a smile.

"Do vampires spend their nights in coffins?" I inquired out of curiosity.

Silvia burst out laughing when she heard me speak.

"Yeah sure, some ancient vampires go for a long slumber in the coffins, but that's only because it's their preference, but we don't necessarily need to rest in coffins," she stated.

Well, I always wondered about that...

Time went by as we were conversing, and we soon arrived at the stadium.

The sun was rising, and we could see a large crowd gathered around the stadium. And there are also several reporters to be seen.

I looked toward Silvia, curious to see how she would move in the sun.

But I was astonished as I watched her walk nonchalantly in the sun.

"...."

She then directly went towards the entrance to prepare our seats in the main arena, where the battle would take place, rather than the audience arena.

'It must be great to be wealthy' I thought to myself, glimpsing Silvia.

I shook my head, came out of my thoughts, and then called Aegis, but she didn't pick up the phone.

So I just left her alone because she appeared to be extremely busy.

***

Silvia quickly arrived and led me to the main stadium, where only executives were permitted. And there was also an emergency team present, so I might come across Aegis and Mika there. I thought to myself.
