BXBX NOVEL Chapter 442 - She's Similar To Our Ghost
Chapter 442 – She’s Similar To Our Ghost
"Alright, get on. It will be faster this way," I said as Spot transformed back to his original size.
The three Vampire Dukes looked at each other and decided to have the Duke #1 to be the one guiding us to the queen.
Although he was scared at first, he carefully jumped on top of Spot\'s head and take a seat on the Blobbyseats I prepared. It\'s so that other people than me won\'t fall over. And I just sat on Spot\'s head cross-legged without sitting on Blobbyseat. I don\'t need to.
While being watched by the other vampires, Spot started to move as he fly to the sky. The unprepared Duke #1 screamed because of the speed, but got used to it soon after.
Since I put Air Barrier around us, we can still talk with each other despite the speed.
"So, which way is your queen\'s home?" I asked the Vampire Duke.
"We\'re going the opposite way!"
The Vampire Duke, still unused to the speed, think that he needs to raise his voice. Well, he might have gotten used to moving at high speed, so he unconsciously raises his voice. It\'s normal for those who have used to such speed, without putting air or wind barrier around them to speak loudly. Because of the wind pressure is too strong for sound to travel.
"You can just talk normally. I\'m using magic so we can do that. Spot! Turn around! We\'re going the wrong way!" I shouted. Just after I told someone that he doesn\'t need to shout.
"Oh, okay! How far is that place?" Spot asked.
We looked at the vampire to ask the distance from here to the queen\'s location.
"…it should be a five days travel on foot. So…"
"One hour it is. Spot, let\'s finish this soon so we can go home faster," I said.
"Okay!"
Spot increased his speed even further. With this, it won\'t be a problem for us to reach the queen in just one hour.
"So, how was your queen like?" Albert asked the vampire to get to know who we will meet.
"She\'s the most beautiful vampire in the world," the vampire said as if he\'s singing praises for his queen.
"I mean her personality," Albert said.
"Her personality is as good as her appearance," the vampire said.
…alright, he\'s gone. Seems like this Vampire Queen can entrap other vampires this much. This is no longer loyalty to the queen. It\'s worship to the queen instead.
"Does she have children? The Vampire King has a son that we killed, so I don\'t want to make the same mistake to kill her family before meeting her like when I met the Vampire King," I said.
"Anyone who becomes our queen\'s husband will be killed by me and all the male vampires! Though if she makes all of us as her lovers, it will be fine," the vampire said.
…I feel like I\'m familiar with the story. About a seductress who seduces men to be her harem. She ended up becoming a ghost though.
So, this one is a Vampire Queen with power to seduce the male vampires? Is she some kind of hybrid between a vampire and a succubus? Maybe I can let Sonia to help us negotiate with the Vampire Queen because they are similar.
"Then, what about the female vampires?" Albert asked. Seems like he noticed the similarity between the Vampire Queen and our ghost.
"They respected her for being able to stand above the male vampires," the vampire said.
So, the male vampires love her and the female vampires respect her? Then, what is the reason for the feud between the Vampire King and the Vampire Queen?
"How did you and the Vampire King\'s group ended up fighting each other," Albert asked.
"I don\'t know how it started, but there\'s a disagreement between him and our queen which made him, along with those who follow him, to leave this place. The disagreement turned into hatred and we started killing each other," the vampire said.
That\'s it? I guess he doesn\'t know everything.
But still, if the Vampire Queen is someone who can use charm magic like Sonia, it will be dangerous to meet her without preparation. For me, I once dispelled Sonia\'s charm right away on our first-time meeting. It\'s thanks to my Aura. But for Albert, it will be difficult.
"Albert, I\'ll take you back for now. How about you get lovey-dovey with Marie first so you won\'t get charmed by the Vampire Queen? Don\'t do it too much since I\'ll be opening a portal to you once we can talk peacefully," I said to Albert.
"I also don\'t want to have you watch us. I\'ll wait with her then. Don\'t forget to call Sonia," Albert said.
In truth, after I started thinking that the Vampire Queen might be able to use charm magic, O already called for her and she\'s already in invisible state. To keep her as a secret from the Vampire Duke who is guiding us.
"I won\'t. She\'s busy," I said, but I still pointed at her location behind me with my thumb so Albert and Carmen know that Sonia is here. Though I don\'t know if Carmen knows about Sonia\'s charm magic or not.
Noticing that Sonia is already there, Albert nodded. Then, I opened a portal back to the village where the feast hasn\'t ended yet and transport Albert back while grabbing the freshly prepared meal. Seems like Lina and the other chefs keep cooking even in the middle of a feast. At least I can enjoy the dishes I missed.
I walked to Carmen and told her about Sonia and the possibility of the Vampire Queen having charm magic.
"It doesn\'t work on women?" Carmen asked.
"I don\'t know. But back then, when I first purchased the haunted house Sonia is in, none of the girls are affected. Are you going to meet her?" I asked her.
"I will stay. It will be bad if she has stronger charm magic than Sonia and you got charmed. At least I will be there," Carmen said.
She\'s right that rather than Albert, it will be more dangerous if I\'m the one who get charmed. But I have Victoria with me.
She\'s transforming into my undershirt right now. So, just in case anything happens to me, she will transform into a spiked undershirt that will stab me just in case. Not to the point that she will kill me. just enough for me to open my eyes wide.
"I\'ll do that. Like this?" Victoria quickly test it out.
"Ouch! Like that, but not know! That\'s hurt. Just when we met the Vampire Queen, and you think I started acting weirdly. You\'re the one who knows me the most, so you should be able to notice if I acted out of the line," I said.
"But you did that a lot. Well, I\'ll try my best," she said.
As for the other two with us, Carmen and the vampire, they are confused why I suddenly screamed in pain. Well, I won\'t tell them.
And in case Carmen got charmed, I guess I\'ll bring Harold here.
…will that work? She doesn\'t even know that Harold has been replaced until she slept with the impersonator.
Well, I hope charm magic won\'t work with the same sex. Though in the end, Harold might be the one who got charmed
I can finally see it the place where the vampires live.
Just like the previous town, the houses were built mostly from wooden log. But there\'s a castle in the middle of the town.
Using my Divine Vision, I can see inside the castle that there\'s a woman sitting on the throne alone.
Just like when I first met the Vampire King, the Vampire Queen also noticed me right away.
"Carmen, she\'s coming," I said.
The Vampire Queen who noticed me, quickly fly too the sky toward us. I had Spot slowed down so we can greet her.
"Hello, I came in peace," I said to the flying Vampire Queen who has summoned her Blood Wings.
Oh, no wonder that the Vampire Duke with me worshipped her. She\'s a real beauty. The most beautiful woman I\'ve ever seen. She\'s even more beautiful than…
"Ouch!"
Under my shirt, I feel prickling sensation as Victoria stabbed me with needles enough to make me bleed. Thank you, Victoria.
Since she has the gut to charm me, I don\'t need to be polite against her.
I used my Aura to the fullest to protect myself from her charm, and shouted at her.
"If you dare using charm on me again, I will kill you just like how I kill the Vampire King!" I shouted loudly to intimidate her. It works.
And since I also used air magic to make my voice louder, the Vampire Duke with me was so scared that he wet his pants.
…I need to apologize to Spot later.
One thing I know for sure, she used charm on people she sees for the first time. And that\'s make her dangerous enough for me to make a decision to kill everyone here.
But since Albert has some kind of intention, I won\'t do that.. At least until I know she can\'t be trusted.
