Vampire's Slice Of Life

Chapter 1092  Tug Of War For Date

VOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM—!

A loud alarm resounded throughout Greenville City as Lith stepped foot in it. "Your Highness, nooooo!" Hecate exclaimed as she saw Lith. Alexandra immediately went to his side and took a defensive stance, ready to protect her husband for whatever may come. "What's happening?" Lith frowned and asked. Hecate went to Lith's side and covered him. She was in the midst of casting spells and in a great hurry. Despite that, she responded, "The capital is really sensitive to males. You wouldn't even find a worm that's male here."

"Oh… crap."

It hit him now. He wasn't disguised as a girl anymore and had triggered the alarms by entering this place. Here was thinking of having a good time with his wife, exploring the streets of Greenville City, eating hotdogs and donuts while admiring the greenery… but things never always go one's way, do they?

Lith held Alexandra and Hecate's hands and sent a strand of his spiritual power into the teleportation badge in his pocket.

Space fluctuated around the three and Lith vanished from the spot. The alarm went off and shortly after, a group of witches arrived at the spot Lith was previously at. "Suspect's vanished, senior." One of the witches said into her mouthpiece. "Continue the search. Be on the lookout in nearby areas." A professional voice resounded in her earpiece. "Roger that, senior."

The group of witches vanished and went in search of Lith, but alas, they would never succeed in doing so as Lith was back in the Royal Castle, right in the courtyard where he had just parted ways with Arya.

"That was quicker than I thought. Someone seems eager to go on a date, ey?" Arya asked with a smile as she placed her teacup down. Her carefree voice reached Alexandra's ears and her eyes lit up. She turned to look at her and called out, "Big sis!"

Arya got up and opened her arms with a smile. "Won't give your older sister a hug?"

"Big sis!" Alexandra called out again and ran towards Arya to hug her. She wrapped her arms around her body and placed her head on her shoulder. "You were gone for so long," she complained after getting comfortable. Arya rubbed Alexandra's back and said, "Had work, couldn't help it. You seem to have grown healthier and prettier in the time I haven't seen you."

"Mm." Alexandra had a slight blush form on her face and she rubbed her nose on Arya's shoulder in embarrassment. Arya smirked and caressed Alexandra's lushly hair. "You're my little sister and we both share the same husband. Too bad though, I'm going on a date with him right now. You won't be able to see him."

"Huh?" Alexandra broke the hug and stared at Arya with knitted brows. "What did you say, big sis?"

To make matters clear, Arya walked up to Lith and held his arm from the side. "Me. Date. Husband. Now."

"!!!?" All the warmth she got from Arya vanished as Alexandra's gaze got colder. She walked up to Lith as well and held his other arm. "You're not taking darling anywhere. He's mine right now."

Arya laughed and wore her pitch black glasses. She looked at Alexandra and said, "You're a million years too young to fight your big sis, Lexa."

Alexandra pouted in annoyance and pulled Lith away from Arya. "Let's go on our date, darling!"

"He's coming with me, honey." Arya said with a hearty laugh and pulled Lith to the other side.

Lith smiled helplessly and looked at the ladies sitting around the round table. Lilith and Lucy shrugged and sipped tea while Alea was…

'Hm? A tower?'

A card tower was slowly being built on the table. Alea was patient with the placement of each card and her complete focus was on this. Freya was giving her helping hand while Luna and Qingyue were busy doing something on their tablet screens. Alexandra and Arya continued to have their tug of war and tried to stretch Lith like string cheese. There seemed to be no end to their conflict, hence Lith intervened by wrapping his arms around the two and saying, "Ladies, ladies, ladies. Let's calm down, shall we?"

His soothing voice calmed the two down and made them look up at him, wondering what he had to say. He better not choose the other, was what was going on their minds as they stared at him. Lith smiled and kissed the two's heads one by one. "Why fight, when we can go on a date together?"

"No!" Alexandra shook her head. Arya rolled her eyes and pinched Lith's abdomen. "Didn't I tell you? I want some alone time, it's been a while."

Lith felt helpless once again. "Then, how about this? Let's do a coin toss. It'll be completely fair and you both will have a fifty-fifty chance at it."

"I'll do the tossing for you two, if you agree." Lilith interjected. "See. Even mom agrees with it." Lith clasped his hands and said. Alexandra and Arya thought about it, then nodded their heads. This was better than them fighting like wild cats.

"Okay, choose one." Lilith said and tossed an amethyst coin with a clinking sound. "Heads." Alexandra said quickly. "Tails for me then." Arya had no choice but to accept. The coin flew in the air at an unreasonably high speed, flipping so fast that neither Alexandra nor Arya could make out what was happening. The coin soon landed on the ground in front of the two and after some tossing and turning, it landed at tails.

"Ugh." Alexandra felt physical pain from watching the results. "Heh." Arya chuckled heartily and went to console her little sister. She patted her head and said, "better luck next time."

"Tsk. Don't talk to me." Alexandra brushed her hand away and went to sit beside Lucy at the round table, accepting her defeat. Lith shook his head and smiled. Some things couldn't be helped. "Let's gooooo!" Arya locked her arms with Lith's and said while raising her fist cheerfully. The pair of love birds bid the rest farewell and left for their private date. While they were gone, there was a certain someone in the courtyard that was feeling nervous. This young lady in purple witch robes stood at the side, unmoving, and awaited instructions from the people around her, hoping to get dismissed or given some work. Lilith didn't make her wait for long and said, "Have a seat, Hecate." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Hecate bowed and thanked Lilith. She took a seat at the opposite side, beside Luna and Qingyue, and looked at Lilith. Seated beside her, Lucy crossed her legs and asked, "What was going on? Why was my little brother with you?"

"It's like this…" Hecate began explaining the things that had transpired. Everyone except Alea listened carefully and tried to ponder over the things Lith was planning. Lucy raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "He made Florencia step down and submit to us?"

"Correction: you made her step down, not him." Lilith said with a smile. "What?" Lucy was confused. "How and when did I do that?"

Hecate replied to that, "His Highness resembles a lot like Your Majesty when disguised. He may not look completely similar, but I'm sure Mother would not be able to point this out."

Lilith nodded her head. "It's difficult to tell you two apart. If you two were to take pictures and place them side by side, even I would have trouble differentiating them."

"Seriously?" Lucy knitted her brows and asked. Was her little brother's disguise this good?

Lilith nodded her head.

"Your Majesty, simply differentiating you from Madam is a challenging task. When you were on live television across the continent, none thought that you weren't Madam. That's the level of resemblance you share with each other." Luna said with a smile. "Fufufu…" Lilith rubbed Lucy's head. "Didn't I do a good job in making them? No one would be able to tell we aren't related. It brings me great joy to see the mini mes I've created."

Lucy's eyebrows twitched at the lame joke while the maids giggled softly. Alea was as focused as before. She had made four floors of the tower with cards by now. They looked like they'd collapse due to a single gust of wind, but somehow, she was already moving to create the fifth one!

"Well, Ma'am, I cannot tell what His Highness is planning. I do not possess the necessary strength to be the Queen Mother and—"

"Do you want to?" Lilith cut her off and asked. "Pardon?" Hecate didn't understand. Lilith laidback on her chair and asked leisurely, "I said do you want to become the Queen Mother?"

"…oh." Hecate was at a loss for words. Did she want to? She thought to herself. There were many that would kill to be in that position, but was Hecate in the same category as the rest?

The answer was a big no. Being a Queen Mother meant a lot of responsibilities. Hecate did not want that. She wanted the absolute well being of the witches around the world, but did not want to be the one to take responsibility for providing them that. It was too tiring. However, being the Queen Mother, she could actually clear the bad image of her race as she would have all the witches obey her and listen to her. In this manner, she could lead them onto the right path and watch them grow mightier. Them growing would result in lots of innovations and exciting tech. Hecate liked these things and was eager to watch them. It was a difficult decision to make and she took a few minutes to decide. "So…?" Lilith asked after another minute. Hecate knew she couldn't make this almighty being wait. She cleared her throat, bowed, and said, "If Ma'am insists on this, then my answer is…"
