The Fox Goddess

Chapter 554 Attraction and Rejection

Daryl was taken aback when he heard Yuki questioning him because it was something he truly didn't expect, but looking back at it now, it does seem suspicious of him on how he was trying so hard to keep them by his side. But looking back at his actions, he begins to think back to why he was like that, and when he finally came to a conclusion, he was shocked by his own thoughts. He looked up and glanced the the beautiful woman in front of him for a few seconds before finally answering Yuki's question. But what he doesn't know is that Yuki has already seen his little actions and even though she just calmed down a few seconds ago, she can feel something erupting inside of her again because she knows what kind of stare Daryl just gave Fumiko.

"I… alright, I'm going to be honest with the two of you since I have lied to the two of you more than once, even though this is our first time meeting. At first, I was merely curious to see two beautiful sisters coming through our town, but as I got closer to you, I got attracted even more, especially to you… Lady Fumiko." Daryl said and to everyone's shock, the usual cold and indifferent Town Lord could actually make such an affectionate face that would make any woman in Nightingale fall in love, but the same thing couldn't be said for Fumiko.

"Town Lord, I'm flattered… but you see, I'm already in a relationship, and just waiting for my partner to hand in the marriage proposal~" With just one sentence, she completely crushed the hopes and dreams of Daryl who wanted to try and pursue Fumiko, and the worse thing is that she has already set plan on marrying the person that she loves.

Daryl had never felt something like this, but when he heard that Fumiko already loved someone and that someone was not him, his heart suddenly felt empty, and when Yuki saw his expression, she almost couldn't control herself anymore. If not for Fumiko holding her in her arms, she might have already exploded in jealousy and have tried to kill the man in front of her without being afraid that this was a Higher Tier Heaven.

"Oh is that so… that man must be lucky to have someone like you. You are so beautiful, kind, and gentle. And I know this because of a special power that I have, I can see people's nature with my eye, and seeing yours… it was definitely magical because out of all the Vampires that I have seen in my life is dark, cunning, cold, merciless, and other things that will make you sigh in regret." Daryl sighed, he looked as if he aged a few hundred years after the revelation.

"Again, I'm flattered by your words Town Lord. But I will correct you… The person I love isn't the lucky one, it's actually me who is lucky. I'm lucky that out of the beautiful women around her, I'm the one she chose, and yes… my partner is a woman, it's not a man." Fumiko was again flattered but that was only it, she didn't feel anything from being praised by another person. But it would be a different matter if the one who praised her was the one she truly loved the most, after all, there is just something that is being praised by your true loved one compared to a friend or a random person on the street.

But even though she was praised, she felt like she needed to correct Daryl's words that Yuki was the lucky one to have someone like Yuki by saying the complete opposite and that she was the lucky one. But Yuki doesn't think so, she somewhat agrees with Dary's words because in her mind both of them are just equally lucky to have someone in their life who would support them unconditionally. Support them without asking for anything in return because that is their obligation as partners in life.

When Yuki hears Fumiko's words, she begins to calm down as it eases her raging possessive heart, and instead of boiling with jealousy and anger, a smile creeps up to her face as she directly faces Daryl with a cold smile on her face.

"So that is what you are after… you actually want to pursue my big sister… Well, it's sad to say that you are a hundred thousand years too young for that, my sister-in-law is already the best in the world. Not only she is beautiful, but she's also smart, powerful, rich, and very kind to my sister." Yuki said without any shame at all as she was just basically saying all of those praises for herself, Fumiko couldn't even help but giggle when she heard how Yuki praised herself.

"Daryl… I know what you're thinking, but you better give it up. My sister will only love that woman and no one else. The same thing goes for my sister-in-law and I'll tell you this, if she were here and she heard what you said to my sister, she might have made your life a living hell." Yuki's smile slowly disappeared as it was not replaced with nothing but coldness on her face as she was clear in warning Daryl to never attempt to try and do something that he would regret.

"No… I don't dare to do what you are thinking little Yuki. After hearing that Lady Fumiko already has a partner in her life, I already plan on giving up on pursuing her. So you don't need to worry about that, I will definitely keep my word, I just wish you the best, Lady Fumiko." Daryl calmly answered, he even wished for Fumiko which stunned her.

Meanwhile, the other vampires who were listening to their whole conversation felt that their world was changing. Never in their life would they think that their Town Lord would actually think that Daryl would be the person to pursue someone because of his popularity, women all over Nightingale would gladly become his woman. His fame is not just limited to the humble Soulside town and that is what Yuki doesn't know yet, in fact, he is one of the great leaders of the Vampire World.

"Fine, since everything here is already done. We will take our leave now… Also, you don't need to do anything to compensate us anymore, let's just forget all of it now. Right now, what we want to do is rest and look around the town." Yuki smiled as she rejected the previous offer as she already got what she wanted which was to embed her name in the hearts of all these people. It wouldn't take long for some gossip to take that would be all entirely around her and Fumiko.

And in reality, that is just what she was after. If in the Mystic Dragon Heaven, she wanted to be low-key, in Nightingale it would be the complete opposite because that is just what she needs to do. After all, she needs to spread her name out in some positive ways and even though what she did today was the complete opposite since she basically humiliated Daryl, it would be simple and easy for her to turn it around.

Because Task 5 would be the hardest as it was the most time-consuming as well as Task 1 which needed her to travel to every inch of Nightingale, but at least Nightingale was a lot smaller compared to Mystic Dragon Heaven despite it being a High Tier Heaven. Since Task 5 needed her to be the most influential, she is going to do it in the correct ways, if not for the rule of her not doing anything illegal and killing someone without any real reason, it would be very easy instead. But because of those rules, it was now going to be the hardest.

"Then again… if it was not so hard, it wouldn't be challenging and entertaining for me to do~" Yuki thought to herself as she got down from Fumiko's arms and walked outside without caring on how much people were staring at her.
