Taming My Vampire Servant - Chapter 224

Helios just stared at Ivory for a long while.

When Lucius noticed this, he right out covered his eyes, “Your promise.”

The green-haired man nodded, and Lucius took off the anti-magic cuffs, while being cautious at the same.

In just a minute, Helios successfully took off the strong barrier, and the blond young man immediately returned the cuffs to him.

“You promised me, you’d let me take a look at Ivory,” he said, creasing his brows when he saw her crying as she took off Sigmund’s cuffs and chains.

“Aren’t you already looking at her?” Jirou grumpily said.

Helios ignored Jirou, and the moment he saw Ivory with Sigmund, he yelled, “You Vampire… get away from her!” he briskly walked towards them, murmuring, “My muse… my muse-”

Lucius grabbed his arm and pulled him back, and Helios received a hard punch on the face, sending him down the broken floor. The blood gushed from Helios’ nose, but he still managed to smile at Ivory.

“He’s lost it,” Lucius sighed. “I just used his obsession with Ivory to make him destroy the barrier… Apologies, Ivory.”

Jirou crossed his arms, “I know that you couldn’t ask the Goddess what to do with them. She disappeared yesterday, together with the Werewolves who were without Masters.”

When Ivory asked about her father Wolfram, Lucius told her that he already went back to the heavens.

Lucius also added, “Prince Levian was too busy preparing for the coronation today, so he couldn’t stop my plans… Anyway, my job’s done, so I’ll return them to the prison cell now.”

Jirou was done observing the lunatic man Lucius brought, and when he turned his head, he met Fiona’s eyes. The young lady immediately looked away.

“You must be the mortal older sister,” Jirou told her, “How unusual that you do not have any mana in you. Your mother is a half-goddess, so why-”

“How rich this woman’s mana is!” Sigmund’s special crimson red irises could still sense mana, “It’s kind of similar to that gingerhead, Anastasia- I mean… Goddess Destinia. But only less abundant,” Sigmund commented, but he got confused when they saw the shock on Ivory, Jirou, and Lucius’ faces.

In just a split second, Fiona was able to break out of the cuffs and metal chains!

“This is why I dislike Vampires. I easily get caught,” Fiona muttered.

It was then that Lucius realized what happened three days ago in Rubia Town. He recalled that after Anastasia pierced Lyria’s heart, Fiona became unconscious. He thought it was only a natural reaction upon seeing blood and flesh splattering, but it seemed like there was more to it.

“You… You’re Lyria, aren’t you?”

Upon hearing the question, the green-haired woman’s hysterical laugh echoed in the empty chapel.

“It’s so funny how you did not realize it!” Lyria removed Helios’ anti-magic cuffs using her own mana, then pulled him towards her. The mother and son stepped backwards, away from them.

Lucius found it weird that they were releasing Sigmund that easily. What was the half-goddess planning? He tried to figure it all out in his mind.

Like Destinia, Lyria is not all-knowing. There must be something that Lucius could use to their advantage… something that could mock her.

“Your husband, ex-Oracle Ghidarlgh… You’re just going to leave him in the castle dungeon?” Lucius asked in a serious tone.

“My husband is in the dungeon?” Lyria grinned.

The surroundings suddenly became foggy. Amidst the hazy surrounding, Lyria and Helios ran away through the broken window.

When the fog dissipated, Ivory found herself in Sigmund’s tight embrace. She looked at him with affection and worry, and felt relieved that he’s finally within her grasp.

Ivory couldn’t help but cry again, “I missed you so much…”

“I missed you terribly, Ivory,” Sigmund whispered. “Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this moment?”

Ivory’s tears fell as if they were limitless. “Apologies, Sigmund… I didn’t know it would come to this… I didn’t expect my real parents to be-”

“Hey, dimwit, stop crying!” he wiped her tears with his fingers. While looking straight into her eyes, he told her, “From now on… Let’s not part ways, Ivory.”

But it only made her cry harder.

Ivory remembered what the Goddess Destinia asked when she was in her paradise dream:

“Choose to be a normal human by being cleansed and unchosen in a special ritual by me, or choose to become a full-fledged Werewolf Servant of Prince Levian and serve him and the Kingdom until his last breath.”

It was too unfair for Ivory. How could she choose a life without her beloved Vampire?

Lucius formed a smile on his face when he saw his sister cry for joy. It was such a heartwarming feeling, and he felt that the real Ivory was finally back,

“Ehem,” Jirou stood near them, “Apologies for cutting your reunion, but we need to escape before the next shift of the troops come.”

Ivory nodded, immediately wiping the tears left on her eyes. The four of them went through the broken back window, and after making sure that the knights and guards were still asleep with the spell, they fled towards the marketplace.

Sigmund and Ivory got new cloaks. They put on their hoods, and a piece of cloth also covered their noses and mouths.

“Everywhere is Prince Levian’s territory. These past days, he had already established his influence, through the help of the Generals,” Jirou told them. ”

“And we also have a problem,” Ivory said, then turned to her brother, “Lucius, we need to follow Lyria to the castle dungeons. What if she set Ghidarlgh free? They will all flee, and we do not know what-”

“That man’s not in the prison dungeon.”

Ivory raised her brows, “So it was a trap… and she took the bait?”

Lucius nodded. “He will be… executed on the Umbria City plaza before the coronation of Prince Levian.”

“It’s to show that the previous king had fooled the whole Kingdom. He became an Oracle even though he’s not blessed by the Goddess,” Jirou said, “Aside from that, they will also announce the crimes that they all committed.”

Sigmund sighed, “The problem is how you’d defeat those with the blood of Gods. I am not quite sure if mere Chosen Ones could defeat them. Who knows, they might have something else up their sleeves.”

“What do we do now?” Ivory uttered. “Shall we hide somewhere?”

“Escaping is not an option. How about going directly to the castle? We still have…” Lucius took a peek on his pocket watch, “…four hours before the execution and six hours before the coronation.”

“But the travel time is scarce,” she reacted. “Oh no, if we use mana-”

“Ivory… You didn’t use the Dark Mana in you, right?” Sigmund asked with curious eyes.

“Yes… Are we going to use it-”

“Give me your blood,” Sigmund said, “Let’s renew our contract.”

Ivory felt embarrassed that he said it casually in daylight.. With blushing cheeks, she nodded, not minding the annoyed looks of both her brother and her admirer.
