Chapter 1459 - A Fight With A Special Prize (1/2)
At first, people thought it was a strange question for Samantha to ask in a meeting like this. Why would one of those from the Earthborn group care about the vampire leaders? But there was another lady in the room who managed to figure it out quicker than the others and couldn't help but laugh.
”The tenth leader? Why would she want to know about the tenth leader?” Fex asked out loud, a little annoyed. Samantha stood up though, and started looking towards the other table. Eventually, everyone was starting to remember the match they had. Samantha had gone up against the tenth leader in her fight… and who could forget the ending of their match.
”I'm the leader of the tenth family,” Vincent admitted as he stood up.
Samantha looked at him up and down. Vincent was wearing the same clothing as her opponent had, the mask still covering his face. Since it was also covering his mouth, it was hard to tell what he fully looked like, but he certainly did look like the character from the game.
”I wanted to ask… why did you say that… you liked me?” She struggled to finish her words.
Some people in the room were starting to get second-hand embarrassment and couldn't help but turn away.
'What a brave girl, but did she really have to do this right here, in front of everyone?' Mona wondered.
”Well, of course, it's because you are a beautiful woman. You are strong, have nice curves, and your-!” Vincent answered confidently, but suddenly a loud yell interrupted him.
”Noooo!” Fex was the one who had yelled. ”What the hell are you saying?!”
Turning her head towards the source of the shout, Samantha could tell who it was, the first vampire she had ever met, but why was he yelling like that?
'What do I do… Vincent's ruining my image, and what if she starts to like him now, thinking he was the one who confessed…but do I come out here in front of anyone? Will that be a big deal?' While he was panicking, a friend had come by his side.
”You know… after Helen died, and I saw the video message she left, I realised something. You never know what might happen, and you could lose your chance to tell someone how you truly feel… so honestly, you should just go for it and tell her what you want.” Quinn whispered to him. ”Besides, I seem to recall you telling me that you would only take my love advice if I became King. However, if you're too scared, feel free to consider this an order.”
The words from a King, his friend, had encouraged Fex, and he stood up from his seat.
”No, Samantha… the one that fought against you in that match…yes, it was the tenth leader, but the truth was I was the one that fought you. I was pretending to be the tenth leader at the time.” Fex confessed. Part of him wanted to look away out of embarrassment, but since he had decided to say as much, he looked straight into her eyes.
”What is going on right now?” Sunny whispered to Jin next to her. ”I feel like I'm watching some drama or something.”
Samantha had her hand covering her mouth as the truth had unfolded.
”You… so you were the one… who told me that… you think you are in love with me?” The young woman asked for clarification, to which Fex just nodded.
Soon, cheering from the generals and others was heard.
”Answer the brave boy!”
”He's a vampire though, can a vampire and a human have a relationship?”
”You're still thinking that way? You're behind the times.”
”What do you mean behind the times? This is happening too soon.”
”I think… maybe?” Samantha didn't know what to say, as she had paused. Before she could say anything else, though, the people heard a loud bang. Then a giant figure stood up, a large imprint of his fist embedded on the table in front of him.
Those who had seen what the figure had done on the field, none of them wanted to get in its way, and they could see that it was slowly making its way towards Fex.
'Oh, I guess Oscar will have the last say in all of this after all.' Owen chuckled under his fan.
The Royal Knight walked up, and the two figures stood opposite each other. Fex had learned who was under the suit of armour, and since he had practically asked his daughter to go out with her, it seemed only right that he faced her father.
