Chapter 36 (1/2)

Chapter 36: 023 Merry Christet tense even though I was the one who said this question aloud

Depending on his reply, I’d have to seriously consider how I should go about handling Harh there were those convicts over yonder, I figured that withhi or rather should work out in hness”

Now that was an unexpected reply

Harht at me and continued to speak “Even if I did report this in, I don’t think anyone will believethat I’ve allied myself with another Iht at this point, your highness”

Allied what now? Ahh, you et promoted quicker?

But you’re one of those types that rigorously stick to the field uy was definitely not the type to get in bed with someone else to enhance his career prospects He’d feel offended if he were to be suspected of such a thing, actually

Har to remain calm as he asked me another question “Do you know the potential ripples you hness?”

Well, that… I honestly didn’t have any idea ould happen in that case I guessed that at the very least, the rest of my life would be spent inside a prison cell “At a mini move and even your older brother, the First Ier”

The First Imperial Prince? Oh, so I had an older brother?

Well, I was called the ‘Seventh’, so yeah, there must be at least six others older than me Obviously

I remained unperturbed while perched up on top of the outer walls and this scene caused Har Lady Yulisia with the task of guarding you and her highness back then…”

He continued staring at me with fiery eyes His expression hardened with resolve as he opened his ain, “…I shall serve you and the First Imperial Prince until the end”

I dazedly stared at him for a while there

A dude who stuck to the field et in bed with soain, the allure of a quick promotion was obviously too hard to endure, wasn’t it?

Haha! This guy, he didn’t kno to pick the right bed, though To think he’d align himself with an exiled imperial prince of all people! Much worse than that, it was even a totally suspicious prince who could use Necro on Could it be that he wanted to find h evidence to use against me, was it possible that he wanted to hts swirling in my head, I became evenat me with eyes of compassion for some reason

Just before I could ask hi of those eyes were, a powerful stench attacked

“In any case… I think it’s about tilanced up at the heavens above

Normally, you could easily look at the positions of both the sun and the hly estimate the ti overhead, it made it impossible to tell the exact time now

However, even I could ascertain that the stench of death was rushi+ng towards us to coincide with the advent of ht

“It seems that Christmas Eve is now over”

I’d have irl or with radually cleared away, the once obscured ht slowly revealed itself Sadly, it wasn’t the norly eerie crimson hue that sent shi+vers down one’s spine

The thick layer of dey caused the transforht about this optical illusion

While looking at the ht, I muttered to myself, “Merry Christmas, Harman Of course…” I then loweredHalloween on the same day is just an added bonus”

The undead on top of the snowy fields were finally ain

And about 600 e, the Vaathering the criy within its hand

(TL: In 3rd person POV)

The Vampire Count sat atop of the sedan chair

The er as it looked down at its crotch The burnt stench still lingered, and its enerated even now

‘But… how come…?!’

This creature was far different from all the other undead It wasn’t some measly little ‘corpse’ that didn’t even breathe, or one with a heart that no longer pulsed with life

It possessed ego, and could think before h its lungs, the monster could breathe too It even kne to enjoy the taste ofa Vaht to enjoy ‘new life’ after crawling out frorow any body part destroyed by divinity However…

Even now, its rowing back but at a pace even slower than a snail’s crawl
