Chapter 69
" is that so? well, I am here because of his majesty too "
Seeing Kai cheerfully carrying on the conversation with a man that obviously wasn't supposed to be there, made Bernard's heart ache. He brushed aside the thought that Kai somehow resembled his little sister, and focused on the current situation.
" since when have you been here? and what is the problem with pressing that..... brick? "
" I have been here ever since sir Montfort left, before bringing you here, general "
Bernard frowned after hearing that. He could feel the people breathing behind the walls, yet he couldn't sense the man until he showed himself.
' I knew something was weird with this guy '
The umbrella butler. Three years ago he mysteriously appeared next to Lennox, as the crown prince's personal assistant. However, that was not the first time Bernard had seen him.
' Is he the reason why vampires are in chaos? '
Many years ago. When he accompanied his master to meetings with the vampires' leader, Prince of Blood, Bernard often saw him. A man that was being worshipped like a god even by Prince of Blood himself. All vampires considered him to be their most precious treasure, they never hesitated to offer theirs and their families lives for that man's sake.
Of course, with his glowing scarlet eyes, there was no doubt that he was a pureblood vampire. But he wasn't the only one, there were other purebloods. Then why was that man so special that the vampires became a mess after he left?
The umbrella butler continued to speak. Although he had a respectful attitude toward Bernard, his eyes were flickering with a sense of challenge.
" As to why not opening the passage, is because I received orders to observe and report without interfering. If the passage was to open now, we will be exposed "
Bernard raised a brow and looked at the umbrella butler in disbelief.
" so you are saying that we should wait for these punks to do their shit and watch silently "
" I do not wish to become an incompetent servant, nor can I let sir Montfort get involved either. However, the general is free to do as he pleases"
Kai, who's name was suddenly brought into the conversation, jolted when he saw Bernard generating lightning on his hand. Bernard said as he walked toward the wall where Kai and the umbrella butler were standing.
" Fine, you stay there and observe. I, alone, am enough to take care of them "
Bernard charged forward, his fist slammed on the wall with a loud bang. As the wall shattered upon the people on the other side, the umbrella butler grabbed Kai and dashed away from the flying rocks.
" WHO, WHO ARE YOU?!!! "
" INTRUDER! BOOS THERE IS AN INTRUDER!!! "
" AAAH! STAY AWAY!! "
Kai watched as Bernard beat the hell out of the poor newbies when he suddenly realized that the umbrella butler was carrying him like a princess. Kai squirmed in the umbrella butler's arms as he internally panicked.
" Am... a... mister, would you please let me down? "
" Declined "
' WHY?!!!!!!!!! '
Seeing the little hamster in his arm fidgeting, the umbrella butler fixed Kai's position to a more comfortable one before adding.
" Sir Montfort is small and fragile, same as lady Everly. I am afraid that you might hurt yourself "
Kai looked at the man in disbelief. in the past years, he trained restlessly every day, he endured the pain and fatigue to become an imperial knight. Kai became one of the elites to prove that despite his feminine appearance, he was strong. Yet, with everything he did, Kai was still receiving the same treatment as a 10 years old little girl.
" ...on "
" Hm? "
The umbrella butler lowered his head to hear what the hamster in his arms was grumbling when suddenly, two slim hands forcefully pulled his hair.
" I SAID LET ME THE FUCK DOWN!!!!!!!!! "
******
" oww~ she is so small, so adorable "
" I have never seen such beauty in my life. My eyes are blessed "
" Little girl, tell us the truth, did you fell from heaven? there is no way our world is able to produce an angel "
Everly stood silently, holding Jennings hand as she listened to the same bullshit she hears every day about herself.
' She looks fine, I thought she would be scared '
Sometimes, Everly acted shy and uncomfortable around adults, while other times she would be at ease and cheerful.
That is because she followed her instincts as a Love.
Since she was half Love, her aura's effectiveness also reduced considerably. Allowing some people with keen senses to resist her aura, normally Everly's instincts made her avoid these individuals. However, it's still possible for her to grow closer to them. Jennings is an example, he might have adored her cuteness but that was his nature.
He wasn't bewitched.
" We appreciate your compliments. But, kindly, keep your distance "
Although she was unbothered about them, Jennings on the other hand started to run out of patience. At some point, Lennox slipped away from his side, Annasophy was walking around with some dude acting all lovey-dovey. And above all, Jennings was traped here in the middle of this crowd, unable to go search for his kids.
' Ahh, parenting is hard '
