"I don't care about the risk. Even if it's dangerous, I am never forsaking Angelica," Rudy said in a solemn voice.
"Your choice." Nyxia shrugged her shoulders and said, "Also, she can't leave your body as long as she is in this world."
"Is this because she didn't pass through the portal?" Rudy asked curiously.
"That's a minor reason. The real reason is her energy."
"You mean her frequency?"
"No, that's different. You see, the universe is filled with one or another energy. When the races with spirits die, they turn into energy and become a part of the universe. Some call it an everlasting life," Nyxia stated.
"So Angelica's energy is not suitable for this world? Is that what you are trying to say?"
"When a person is alive, they have a different energy. But when they die, the energy changes into something more chaotic since there is nothing to bind or hold it. But it gets lost in this vast universe. However, if the energy or rather the spirit is bound to something such as a place, a person, a memento, or even the feelings and emotions, it won't pass on."
"That's a better take on explaining about the ghosts…" Rudy muttered.
"Of course, it depends on the culture you follow. I am not intending to nor trying to disparage anyone's belief, by the way. Since humans are sensitive about this topic. I don't know about now, but the old times were nasty."
"You know when I first learned about this world and entered here. I assumed that the vampires would be braindead mindless barbaric creatures living a moronic life. But I was left speechless after learning that they have an established civilization. They even have houses, clothes, schools, hospitals, gardens, and many more things. I am genuinely impressed. And the fact that we can have this serious conversation like this shows how knowledgeable you all are."
"Oh, you jest. Not everyone is like me, and not all of them want to live this life. Things are much better in this kingdom than the other ones, but not as much as they used to be," Nyxia chuckled. "And it's normal. Even in the human world, no one likes to go to school. Maybe till tenth or twelfth grade. Except for the ones who truly want to study and get a job. Most of the youngsters nowadays look for an easy way to get money, don't they?"
Rudy raised his brow and remarked, "You surprisingly know well about humans even though you claim to hate them."
Nyxia shrugged her shoulders and rolled her eyes without saying anything. But after a few seconds, she got a glance at Rudy, who was feeding his eyes with her beautiful naked body.
"What year is it in the human world?" Nyxia asked curiously.
"Uhh… 2008…" Rudy replied with a puzzled look on his face.
"Oh. So they finally crossed two thousand years. I am surprised they managed to survive this long."
"You have been making fun of the humans and passing comments for a while now. I can't say I am not offended."
"You have also been doing the same about the vampires."
Nyxia and Rudy stared at each other before moving their gazes to their private parts.
"Hmm~ So Virgil is already 2008 years old," she muttered. "I want to say time passed quickly, but it didn't. "
"Can I know more about you?"
"Arara? Could it be that you are finally interested in me?" Nyxia teased.
"Yes."
"Huh?" Nyxia's face flushed a little as she said, "Wait, really?!"
"I am interested in you as a person. Not the romantic type of interest, though."
"Gah!" Nyxia frowned her face and said, "You purposely did that to tease me, am I right?"
"I don't know what you are talking about." Rudy acted dumb.
"My name is Nyxia. I was born in bla bla, grew up in bla bla, became infamous when I did bla bla, bla years passed by, and I bla bla. I married 2020 years ago, and I have seven sons and two daughters, out of which three sons are dead, and I have no idea where the daughters are," Nyxia stated sarcastically.
"So Virgil is the oldest. It's good. If someone else was the eldest, this kingdom would have been the same as the others," Rudy muttered.
"Oh no. Virgil is the youngest son. In this world, the strongest becomes the king. If a random vampire challenges Vigil and wins, he or she will become the next king or queen. If no one challenges him, the next ruler will be Jane."
"Hmm?"
"As I already said, Virgil is the strongest vampire; he is blessed by the lord, after all. Then I am the second strongest, but I have already ruled over this kingdom for a long time, and I am not interested anymore. So that leaves Jane, who is the third strongest vampire."
"But won't the royals and nobles oppose that?" Rudy asked curiously.
"That doesn't matter. As a king or a queen, the ruler has the right to do anything they want, and I mean everything. Who in their right mind would dare to offend the strongest? The answer is no one."
'Well, there is me.'
"Who is the fourth strongest?"
"Probably someone in the other kingdom," Nyxia replied without seeming to care much. She was rubbing her hands on her body as though she was washing it.
A brief silence later, Rudy uttered, "I am asking in this kingdom. I plan to take Rias and Jane with me, so who will be the ruler if not Jane?"
Nyxia squeezed her breasts and moved her hand to her neck before frowning her face and glaring into Rudy's eyes.
Rudy didn't flinch and stared back at Nyxia.
"What did you say, boy?"
"I plan to take Rias and Jane with me," Rudy repeated casually.
"Did Virgil allow that?"
"I haven't told him that yet." He shrugged his shoulders and said, "But I don't plan to change my mind even if he doesn't agree with me."
"I cannot allow you to take my lovely great-granddaughters to that despicable world!"
