Vampire's Slice Of Life Chapter 438 Lucy Doesn't Like Ms

Chapter 438 Lucy Doesn’t Like Ms

Somewhere in the Demon Continent…

A blue coloured demon with black horns was sitting on a pile of bones while slowly gnawing on a large chunk of flesh.

The flesh he was consuming belonged to a human and it was a delicacy for all demons out there. However, despite the sweet taste of it, the demon didn't quickly gobble it down and was taking his time to eat it.

A while later, a gray colored demon appeared at this place and looked at the one sitting at the top of the pile of bones.

"Patriarch… I… have… some news."

The demon said slowly and the blue demon also took his time to react to the demon coming in.

"What… is… it?" The blue demon asked and then got back to gnawing on the flesh.

In the same slow and low voice, the gray demon explained that the army they sent to the Kenzal Clan was completely eradicated. Though they sent the army with no hopes of getting everyone returned alive, it still came as a surprising news that they were all gone.

The demon that was called Patriarch was none other than the head of the High Demon family from the Sin of Sloth that sent a few of his people to the Kenzal Clan.

The blue demon gnawed a bit on the flesh and asked, "not one came back?"

"No…" the gray demon said while shaking his head slowly.

"What… were… the results?" The Patriarch was asking about the result of the war.

"The Kenzal Clan was wiped out… Kenzal and his general… were taken prisoners."

"Shadow River Sect?"

"No… One person."

"Hmm?"

"One… a.s.sa.s.sin… named Ray."

"..." The blue demon stopped chewing on the flesh and seriously looked at the gray one.

Now this came as a surprise to him. He didn't expect that one a.s.sa.s.sin would completely wipe out all his people.

The blue demon sighed and put aside the piece of flesh. Though it was really tasty, he wasn't in the mood to eat it.

"Our scheme… It failed."

"Seems like it." The gray demon replied.

The blue demon felt tired hearing that and laid back on the pile of bones, breaking eye contact with the gray demon.

He then closed his eyes and said, "Beelzebub… he'll surpa.s.s me…"

"Yes…"

"No footing in… Neutral Continent…"

"Yes…"

"...zzz…zz…"

"..."

"...zz…z…"

"..."

The gray demon sighed when he noticed that the Patriarch fell asleep before handing out a new command and he knew he had to wait here until he was awake.

The demon, looking at the patriarch sleeping, thought to himself, 'It is no wonder the Belphegor family is so lacking…'

The Belphegor family, also called the Sloth family, was the weakest and also the most peaceful and least scheming family in the entire Demon Continent.

The reason for this was that the main family was lazy as is, even the branch families and the entire people belonging to the Sin of Sloth were the same.

Due to this, no things get done quickly and the Belphegor's, despite feeling the need to have more power, wealth, and status, never really rose up and were at the bottom most place. They had the innate nature of demons and were greedy, however, their laziness overpowered everything and they were just a bunch of lunatics who wanted to do nothing but sleep and laze around.

The demons entered the other continents which banned their entry through vessels. They were prohibited to enter the Human Continent and could only go there if some humans did some rituals or by possessing other humans.

There were many demons from all seven demon families but the most were from the Sin of Greed and the least were from the Sin of Sloth.

The members of the Sin of Sloth were just too few and as of now, the total people present in the human continent were no more than a few hundred.

They were considered a disgrace by the other demons.

The main family thought of removing this disgraceful status and issued orders to occupy other continents, especially the humans. Despite being lazy, they still had some innate pride in them which made them work slightly.

But all were for naught as n.o.body worked hard enough to even get anything done and the Belphegor's were back to zero.

They had plans to establish a base in the Neutral Continent via the means of the Kenzal Clan, but things didn't go their way and they had their connection with that continent cut off.

If the main family got wind that someone from the branches failed even a simple job like this, they'd probably be annoyed and…

Do nothing.

The Belphegor's were too lazy to care and would just sleep this one out like usual.

…..

Royal Castle, Nightingale.

Lith walked through the corridor of his castle and was heading towards his room. Luna brought him back to Nightingale and left him alone and went to work.

Lith's mind was occupied with things as he walked towards his room. Firstly, he was recalling what he learnt in the war and secondly, he was constantly checking whether the entire energy in his body was absorbed or not.

In a few moments, he could tell that there was no more energy left to absorb and he was back to comprehending the things he had learnt.

Soon…

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Lith's train of thoughts broke as he heard some footsteps. It seemed like someone was running and coming close to him.

Lith was about to turn around when…

"Hushaaa…"

Someone jumped on Lith's back and hugged him from behind.

Lith was slightly surprised with this sudden event and before he could look back to see who it was, his vision darkened.

"Guess who?"

A melodious voice rang in his ears.

Lith flashed a small smile as he heard that. He put his hands behind him and lightly slapping the b.u.t.tocks of the person he was piggybacking, he said,

"Who else could this perky b.u.t.t belong to other than Her Majesty?"

"Cheh." Lucy clicked her tongue as she heard that. "I thought you won't be able to guess."

Lith chuckled and walking towards his bedroom while carrying Lucy on his back, he said, "big sis, it seems you've gotten a bit dumb lately. Isn't it too easy to guess when you give away your voice like that?"

Lucy finally realized her blunder and blushed slightly in shame.

How did she becomes so stupid? She thought to herself.

"A-Anyway… how was the experience?" Lucy tried to change the subject to hide away her blunder.

Lith chuckled again as he saw his sister change the subject. But he didn't call her out and replied, "Not bad, not good. It was okayish."

"I see. Did you learn something?" This time Lucy asked seriously.

"Yes. I understood that you need power." Lith's expression turned serious as he said that. "...a lot of power."

The a.s.sa.s.sination impacted Lith and he knew well how important power was. If he was weak, anyone could a.s.sa.s.sinate him and thus, he had to be strong.

Lith's intent was starting to turn murderous as he recalled the day he got a.s.sa.s.sinated. He was about to have a flashback of the entire event again when…

Smack!

Lucy lightly hit Lith's head and said, "stop overthinking things."

Lith snapped out of his thoughts and turned his head to the side to look at Lucy.

This wasn't the first time he had gotten hit by her like that. She would hit him everytime she saw him overthink during training to pull him out of his thoughts and to have him get rid of this habit.

Thought this time it was a light hit. And noticing this, it made Lith wonder whether his sister had gotten soft after marriage or was it something else?

Just as he sunk into his thoughts again, he got smacked once more.

"Stop overthinking things!" Lucy reminded Lith again.

"Right." Lith said softly and chuckled. He then started walking towards the bedroom again.

As they walked, Lucy explained, "see, dear, it's not just power that one needs. You also have to think about other ways of dealing with things. Absolute power is definitely good, but what if you get matched with someone of the same level? What then?"

"At that time, you would need to use the various other means present in your disposal and not solely rely on strength. Do you understand me?"

Lith nodded lightly. "I do. But by having absolute power, it simply means there's no one who can match me."

Lucy smiled hearing that and said, "I'll always be there though. And I am currently stronger than you."

Lith flashed a small smile hearing that. "Not for long though. I just need to train hard."

"I train harder than you everyday. Don't you think it'll take ages for you to surpa.s.s me? And I am only just a King Rank." Lucy said again with a smile.

If someone heard that, they would definitely be really angry at Lucy.

What the h.e.l.l does she mean only just a King Rank!? Does she have any idea how difficult it is to become one and how long it takes?!

The average population could never even hope to become an immortal, let alone a King Rank. And those who do reach these stage, the average age was around 2,000+ years.

Lucy was just a little over five hundred years old and she shouldn't really be saying this.

Lith, listening to Lucy's comments, replied, "then I'll just have to work more than you and train more than you. I'll definitely surpa.s.s you if you do that."

Lucy's face brightened up as she heard that. She kissed Lith's cheek and said, "then do it. Surpa.s.s me as soon as you can. I'll be very happy, you know?"

Lucy found more joy in her brother surpa.s.sing her than her own self reaching to the pinnacle. It was just how her mind worked and she felt no jealousy or envy.

Lith clicked his tongue as he heard that. "Tsk. I thought you'll be slightly worried about me surpa.s.sing you."

Lucy chuckled and replied, "I'll be the happiest person if you are able to achieve that. Go work your a.s.s off and pa.s.s me. I've got work to do and I'll leave now."

After saying so, Lucy tried to get off, but Lith held her b.u.t.t and kept her in position, not letting her leave.

"Your Majesty, you're coming to the bedroom with this lowly one and are not allowed to leave." Lith said with a chuckle.

"Oh my, you dare s.e.xually a.s.sault the Queen?" Lucy went with the flow.

Lith groped Lucy's soft buns and kneading them into whatever shape he liked, he said, "Yes. Is there a problem?"

"There is. I am the Queen and you aren't supposed to do that. You'll be punished severely for this."

Lith chuckled again. "Yes, yes, please punish me then."

"Geez, so you're a M. Too bad, I don't like Ms." Saying so, Lucy quickly got off and ran away.

"Hein?"
