Newest Chapter For Highest Tier (August 2021)
****************************
Archdemon Empress Luna
****************************
Since she had the pure blood of the Summer Monarchs running through her bloodstreams, Apollyon's mother was strong enough to deceive them with her words.
Princess Ourania saw no need to skirt around the subject or throw their focus off from innocent half-truths.
Luna and Apollyon accused their opponent of a certain crime which Apollyon's mother refused to admit.
Unfortunately, Luna couldn't gather witnesses since Princess Ourania and Caelano led her to an unknown dimension.
The deranged lady had the f*cking audacity to deny her accusations when she was guilty!
With gritted teeth, she glowered at Princess Ourania and Sir Tristan practicing at the farthest fringe of the arena while she flexed her arm, swinging her swords over and over as if she was slicing through the air.
She barely noticed Ravin standing close to her with his legs in a wide stance, observing her with arms crossed over his chest.
When the Summer Monarchs arrived at the Colosseum to witness a rare duel between female royalties, the Commander of the Faerie Sentinel informed the King and Queen of the Summer Courts about the duel.
King Oberon and Queen Titania were made aware of the conflict since they would stand as the judge.
In Luna's opinion, a solemn affirmation uttered in front of the Summer Court Trial against Princess Ourania will be ineffective due to possible perjury and manipulation of the ruling nobility who favored the Summer Princess compared to a Vampire King from another foreign land.
This was the reason why she was determined to win the duel, and she trusted Sloth to do his rightful mission.
Speaking of the devil, his scatterbrained Familiar noticed too late that he was all alone at the center as he slowly spun around, his gaze taking in the entire colosseum and the thousands of Fae spectators arriving like swarming ants searching for empty seats to settle.
Sloth had already twirled in his place about three times before he saw her with Ravin.
The Familiar ran in their direction like an eager penguin.
She sighed, shaking her head.
That was when she figured out that this was the first time the Archdemon scholar had worn a panoply because it was too heavy for his tall, lanky frame.
"Here you are," Sloth said, breathless, as he looked around her vicinity. "Where is the Vampire King?"
"The Vampire King had important matters to take care of," Luna replied a little louder so that Sloth could hear her from all the noise from the Summer Faeries.
"So, you aren't important?" He inclined his head, and she squinted at his visor.
Luna saw his green eyes crinkle. "Calm down, Master. It is merely a jest." He gave her a half-shrug. "I thought the three of you left me here to kill the opponents by myself."
"Scared?"'
"I'm fine with killing them both myself." He stated with utter confidence. "I don't die, Lune."
"Right." Luna nodded in agreement. "I just realized that I don't die as well, but I can't say for my daughter."
"Are you sure you only have a daughter, Lune?"
She blinked, taken aback. "What do you mean?"
"We talked about this before." Sloth glanced at Ravin before he returned his attention to her. "How quickly you forget."
Luna glanced around them quickly to make sure no one was eavesdropping near them.
Then, she gave him a disconcerting stare, "We talked about a lot of things, Sloth. Please elaborate."
She waited for him to speak, but he didn't.
"Do you mean I was carrying another child inside me aside from the Vampire King's heir?"
"Who knows? I don't know."He grinned slyly, "What do you think?"
Groaning in disappointment, Luna bent her neck from side to side as she stretched her limbs. She suddenly had the strong desire to beat him up before the duel even started.
Sloth added, "I don't provide answers. I only ask questions."
Luna prompted with impatience. "The Summer Monarchs hadn't given the signal to start the duel yet. It will start once every Summer Monarch is seated on the marble seats instead of roaming around and catching up with the latest gossip. Better tell me now, Sloth. I command you to tell me what you have in my mind as my Familiar."
"Luxen spilled his seed on you, and you still have no idea if it bore fruit inside your stomach."
Luna rolled her eyes. "We had already talked about this." She was looking for Sloth to supply her new information! "He couldn't make me pregnant when I'm already pregnant."
"I heard Lilith had used a fertility spell before she managed to attach herself on your physical vessel. She had used that spell on you, Lune, not herself. You told us about the reason why we are here, didn't you? You need us as your Familiars to keep Lilith on a leash if she got to hold the reins of your consciousness and decided to take over the world through bringing our kind in this Realm. But did you ever think about the trigger on why she showed up out-of-the-blue?"
"Princess Ourania stabbed me in the heart, which left me feeling weak as a vampire, but I didn't die because Ravin's father had transformed me."
"Do you think that was the only reason? What if it was connected to the baby, Lune?" Sloth continued in exasperation as if he knew Luna wasn't going to believe his theories. "What if you almost losing the baby trigger her connection to the physical vessel because she wasn't attached to you but to the baby itself?"
"Enough of this, Sloth!"
In her ire, Luna crouched, closing the distance between them and raised her sword to strike over at Sloth's head, but he easily ducked, jumped out of the way from her and aimed the tip of the blade at the side of her neck.
In fear for her life, Luna froze for a second as her heart pumped like crazy.
Then, she realized that her Familiars would never hurt her.
She straightened her posture, and Sloth immediately dropped his sword.
"I will kill Sir Tristan and spare the Princess' life so that she could bestow the paintings that you needed. I would rather be anywhere than here... but thanks for the reward even the Vampire King hated it." Sloth said, smirking, " I will not tell you to take care because I will take care of you."
