For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

Chapter 70

There is a saying between the nobles that goes:

[ if you wish to talk to the crown prince, but afraid to displease him. Then approach him in the middle of a meal. His mood always brighten in front of sweets ]

...

" May the holy blood always be in your favor. This humble servant has come to pay his respect "

With a plate full of sweets in his hand, Lennox looked at the man kneeling to him in annoyance. He gulped what was in his mouth before saying in a firm tone.

" Stand up. Are you trying to reveal my identity? what the hell is up with this salute?!! "

with Lennox's words, the man quickly stood and straightened his back. He kept his head down with the face of someone who was about to die.

' why are all vampires have the same loose screw? '

Lennox clicked his tongue at the sight of the man who assumed his death unreasonably. Three years ago, vampires vowed to serve Lennox the moment they knew he was an honorable being. Although their assistance was convenient for his plans, Lennox still found it annoying to have them around.

That is because they were...weird.

" Forget it, I am not angry. Just say what is it that you want "

The man suddenly changed his expression to a sad one. Seeing that, Lennox felt kind of remorseful, it was as if he was bullying a kid.

" The matter is, our prince wonders if your excellency will grace us at the ritual in a few days "

" No, I won't go. But I will still send 'that person' there, you guys like him a lot, right? he will stay for a week, have your fun "

Instantly, the man's face lit up in excitement, he quickly bowed to Lennox a few times.

" We will forever appreciate your excellency's kindness "

" If there is nothing else, you may leave "

Lennox frowned and waved his hand. The man said his flashy farewells before bowing again and leaving. After that, many other aristocrats came to greet Lennox, most of them were trying to suck up to him, while the few others just showed their respect. Each one's intention laid bare in front of Lennox, he was always good at reading people and analyzing their way of thinking.

And for the last ten years, he couldn't forget anyone...

' ugh, I came here to eat, not to deal with these snotty heads! '

Although he said that, Lennox still managed to finish five plates of pastries and sweets. As he debated whether to eat another one or not, the umbrella butler approached him from behind. The umbrella butler did not need to say anything for Lennox to notice him.

" Back already? that was quick- "

Lennox turned to face his subordinate but was struck by his appearance. The umbrella butler's face was full of scratches and nail marks, his overall attire looked neat but there were few plunged buttons and wrinkles on his inner shirt.

" What on earth happened to you?!! "

" I mistreated a hamster, my lord "

with a face full of disbelief, Lennox scolded his servant.

" how many times have I told that Kai is not a hamster!!! come back to your sense! he is a human with limbs!! "

hearing his liege reprimanding him made the umbrella butler lower his head in shame. That flustrated Lennox even more.

' WHY IS HE ACTING LIKE A VICTIME WHEN CLEARLY HE WAS AT FAULT!!!.....should I expand his vacation? '

Even with that in his mind, Lennox still had his cold and stoic expression. he brushed these thoughts aside and calmly said as he took out a thick envelope from his inner pocket.

" let's just leave, I am tired "

He motioned to one of the servants holding a plate full of drinks. seeing the child grab a glass of wine made the servant jolt in surprise, he stuttered as he whispered to Lennox.

" y,your highness. i. alcohol i,is a bit... "

Neither the servant dared to complete his sentence nor did Lennox care about him. He nonchalantly placed the envelope on the servant's plate, saying.

" Deliver this to Roan Esterhazy. no need to mention from whom, he knows "

With a clear order, the servant quickly left to his task. it did not matter if he was a child, what mattered that this was the crown prince, and that's all. Lennox swirled his glass, he looked pleased as he stared at the red liquid.

' when was the last time I had alcohol? feels like forever '

It was at that moment when an urgent voice called for him, Lennox's happiness came to an end.

" Lennox! Is that wine in your hand?! "

It was Jennings. Both the father and son looked at each other in shock, it lasted a few seconds. The moment Lennox came back to his sense, he instantly chugged the wine in one go.

" DON'T YOU DARE!! "

Seeing his son's actions, Jennings immediately rushed and grabbed him. unfortunately, it was too late, Lennox had already emptied the glass. Jennings rebuked in disbelief.

" ARE YOU CRAZY?!! Do you have a death wish?!!! spit it out!! "

" I already swallowed it, old man "

Lennox stuck his tongue out, showing Jennings that there was nothing in his mouth. Jennings sighed and groaned at the same time, he felt as if he had lost a couple of years from his life span.

On the other hand, Bernard who came with Jennings and was observing a father's life struggle, Was quite entertained.

" Lennox, seriously, you are the end of my life- "

he paused Before asking.

" Where is little Eve? "
