Vampire's Slice Of Life

Chapter 1090  Misunderstandings

Royal Castle, Nightingale. "That went easier than I expected."

Sitting around a round table in the courtyard of the castle, Lilith said to the ladies near her.  Alea, Luna, and Qingyue were staring at the screen in the middle of the table. "Aunty, all of that aside, what I don't understand is… why did little cousin turn into a girl? It's not anything bad, I am just curious." Alea asked innocently. Lilith smiled and asked, "He looks quite the vixen, doesn't he?"

"Well…"

Alea tried to cover her smile while Luna and Qingyue giggled heartily. "Fufufu… look at you girls, not ashamed to hit on a lady if she resembles even the slightest bit like my baby." Lilith put the tablet screen down and said with a chuckle. "Its not like that, Madam." Luna shook her head with a smile on her face. "We are attracted only because it's His Highness. I'm sure we wouldn't feel anything if it wasn't him."

Qingyue nodded her head and Alea agreed upon it as well. "There's just something about little cousin that makes me want to…" Alea took a pause as she couldn't find the right words to continue. What did he make her want to do? Eat him? Bite him? What was it?

"…makes you want to do questionable things to him?" Lilith asked with a smirk. Luna and Qingyue had a slight blush form on their faces as their imagination ran wild. Alea was too innocent to understand the hidden meaning in Lilith's question. "What questionable things, aunty?" She asked curiously.  "Ask them. They might have an idea." Lilith pointed at the two maids in front of her. "Ahem." Luna cleared her throat and sat upright. "Respectfully, we do not know what you're talking about, Madam."

Lilith squinted her eyes at Luna and popping a piece of candied mini-sized apple, she chewed on it and said, "Your perverted eyes are conveying a different story. You two look like you would devour my baby whole and won't even leave the bones."

Even if Lith was disguised as a lady, his charms had not lowered in the slightest. As a matter of fact, they rose sharply instead, to a degree where he could crush thousands of Heaven-defying, city-toppling beauties. If Lucifer saw him in such a state, she would be turned on so much, and do such things that even Lilith couldn't predict or had ever thought of. He would be in grave danger. Lith should thank his stars that the biggest troublemaker was away. Tap. Tap. Tap. Absorbed in their idle chatter, the ladies soon got distracted as they heard approaching footsteps. Before they could see who it was, they heard a cheerful voice, asking,

"How's it going, ladies?"

A tall lady in a luxurious set of black robes that had a side cut below the waist, walked seductively towards the table. She was walking normally, but the way her hips swayed, and the way one of her long legs popped out of the side slit amused the onlookers. The lady's entire outfit was regal, except for her thin, black and round sunglasses. It gave her a slight informal and messy appearance, but with all the elegance she was exuding, it balanced it properly and elevated her style. "Mother-in-law!" Arya called out Lilith with a smile. "Oh my dear, you finally remembered your mother-in-law?" Lilith teased and got up.

"Can you blame me for it? I was too absorbed in my work and the rest of the time, my brain was occupied by my husband's thoughts, hahaha!" Arya got close to Lilith and hugged her. She got a few pats from her on the back and sat on the seat offered to her. Looking around, Arya asked, "Where is he? I can't sense him at all."

Luna got up from her seat in response and walked towards Arya, handing her a tablet. "Lady Arya, here." She said and went back to sit on her chair. "Hm?" Arya took the tablet and had a look at it. Her eyes brightened when she saw two girls in it and said, "Oh? Alexandra is hanging out with Lucy in—hm?"

Arya's gaze suddenly lingered on the veiled woman on the throne. "Isn't that…"

Arya looked up at Lilith while pointing at the woman on the tablet screen. Lilith gave her a light nod. "Yes, that's her."

"Ooo…" Arya was amused. "What's Lucy and Alexandra doing there with her?"

Arya was a Supreme Rank now and naturally had the qualifications to attend the Supreme Rank meeting held every twenty-five years. She had seen Florencia there and even interacted with her. Thus, in a single glance, she recognized her. Lilith chuckled at Arya's question and the rest of the ladies smiled as well. "Who's doing what and where?" Lilith asked with a bemused smile. "What?" Arya did not understand Lilith's question. Lilith raised her eyebrows and pointed at the tablet screen. "There, who's doing what there?"

"Hm?" Arya still didn't get it and looked down at the tablet screen, wondering what Lilith was trying to ask. Thinking she did not understand her question, Arya asked again, "What are Alexandra and Lucy doing with Florencia there?"

Before anyone could answer her question, the ladies heard the sounds of approaching footsteps. Turning to the source, they saw a young silver-haired lady in regal robes walking towards them. She had a worn out expression on her face and was yawning while holding a spear in her hand. "Oh, my dear's here." Lilith said with a smile. "I'm back, mom." Lucy replied to Lilith's greeting and got close to her, then hugged her.

Lilith patted her back and said warmly, "Mama missed you."

"Missed you too, mom." Lucy said and kissed Lilith's forehead. She took a seat beside her mother and got herself served some tea by a blonde-haired elven maid that appeared in the courtyard just a few seconds ago. Freya, Luna, and Qingyue would be alerted whenever their Masters came back. As Lucy was back, Freya quickly dropped whatever she was doing and made her way to this place and served her. "Thanks, Freya." Lucy said and took a sip of her warm tea. It felt refreshing after such long days of tiresome fighting. "Lucy!" Alea finally greeted her cousin once she settled down and hugged her from the side. "Alea!" Lucy called her out happily and rubbed her face with hers. "Long time no see!" She said and placed the teacup down on the table. "Yes, yes! I missed you!" Alea replied. "Where were you all these days?"

While listening to their conversations, Arya was taken aback. She looked at the tablet screen, then at Lucy, and then back at the tablet screen. Things got so heated for her that she had to pull her glasses down to her nose bridge and glance at Lucy with her real, clear blue eyes.

She then shot a glance at Lilith and saw the latter to be smirking. "Is something wrong, my dear?" Lilith asked, clearly having fun. "Mother-in-law, did you…" Arya showed the silver-haired lady on the tablet screen to Lilith. "Did you perhaps have a child with husband?"

"PFFT—!"

CLINK—!

Lucy spat out the tea she was drinking while the cutlery held by the rest of the ladies dropped on the table and made loud clinking sounds. Lilith was completely dumbfounded with Arya's wild question and her smirk vanished from her face. "Mom, what the fuck!?" Lucy turned to her mother and asked.

She turned to look at the 'evidence' Arya was showing and noticing the young silver-haired girl with amethyst eyes in it, had her eyes widen with shock.

She turned to look at her mother once again and said with trembling hands, "N-no way… mom you did not just… did not just give me another sibling and had a child with your own—"

"Hawwwww!" Alea gasped in shock. She wasn't the smartest and completely bought the misunderstanding spouted by Lucy. "Aunty had a baby with little cousin!?"

"Oh dear…" Lilith clutched her forehead and sighed. How did things suddenly turn into such a mess?

"Mom… please…" Lucy held Lilith's hands. "Please tell me it's a lie…"

Lucy had tears forming in her eyes. "H, how could you have a baby with little brother before me? Were you not satisfied by taking his first time?"

"…"

"…"

"…"

A deafening silence roared in the courtyard as everyone, including Alea, froze on their spots. Lucy's sobs broke the silence a second later as she kneeled on the ground beside Lilith and hugged her waist. "Waaaa… how could you have a baby with little brother before me!? How is this fair?!"

Usually, Lilith would quickly try her best to comfort her children if they were to cry like this, but the current situation was different. She was totally at a loss and did not know what to do. Lilith smiled helplessly and looked at Arya. 'My dear, why must you stir up such trouble?' This was what her eyes were conveying. Arya shrugged and replied back through her eyes, 'You're on your own in this, mother-in-law.'

Lilith sighed and rubbed her temples. "Get a hold of yourself, my dear."

"Waaaa… how can I? How can I after the things you just did!?"

"…."

"…sigh…"
