Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Alex sighed, as he really did have that idea.

With this much life force, even though he couldn't change his family and friends to vampires yet, he could carve the same rune on Emily, raising their strength and survivability.

"How long do we have, Vesa?" MingYue asked.

Vesa then touched the wall, green particles glowing from her hand as she felt the rune formation of the castle.

Even though she failed to absorb the other knowledge, her mastery of runes was still far better than Alex's.

As time passed, Vesa's face turned to a frown as the amount of lifeforce being consumed was far too fast.

"King, Queen, I think the aspect of Gluttony is making a mess at the barrier."

"With our current strength, I think it won't be a problem facing her alone as long as we can pull her into an inner-world battle. I can feel it; our soul is far stronger now," Alex said, proposing they split up: one should go to the planet's core, while the other defeat the aspect of Gluttony.

The goal would be to separate her and Luciel.

In the first place, fighting her physically was too risky and dangerous.

They didn't know how far the aspect of Gluttony could go. Vesa also warned that she could self-destruct and still survive if she was really desperate.

After some discussion, they decided MingYue was the best for the task, as her power was more suitable. Alex, meanwhile, would go to the planet's core.

He then took everything in the castle, as it was better to keep it rather than let it be destroyed. He also sent new orders to Petricia.

At this moment, Petricia had finished with the treatment and was now having a discussion with Elvira.

Elvira was asking for more information on who she was. Since things had calmed down a little, her curiosity about her had started to grow.

Alex and MingYue came from another world, and Petricia was a species she had never seen before, with blue skin.

Petricia didn't mind and answered what she could. She had already determined Elvira would probably become one of Alex's underlings in the future, and she would need to work with her.

"So there is such a world out there. A world without a class system," Elvira mumbled with longing in her eyes.

"It's surprising hearing that from you. Don't you enjoy it? The privilege?" Petricia asked back.

She didn't know much about how Alex's world worked; otherwise, she wouldn't think like this.

Even though there was no medieval class system, it still existed in other forms, for example, between awakeners and normal people, the rich and the poor.

And things could be said to be worse between awakeners and normal people.

Since there was no clear distinction between them, they still interacted with each other, often meeting at school, college, or public places.

Conflict often happens. Alex had his own share of experiences.

Since he didn't usually brag about his family name, some would start to bully him to do their tasks or homework, but it would always backfire.

He always took revenge without caring about the repercussions, knowing he was in the right and had his father's backing.

But not everyone was as lucky as him. There were many bad reports, some even going to the point of being inhuman, ending in tragedy.

The association had done its best, but its attention was focused more on the war at the border. With many dungeon breaks, monsters made their nests, and with them, many sentient ones.

One of them was the Lycan, the werewolf that ambushed William. This information was hidden by the association to ensure unity.

Otherwise, there would always be someone nuts who would try to cooperate with them, even turning them into objects of worship.

They tried their best, but even with all the lids over the information, it still leaked in one way or another. But for most of the populace, it was just monsters versus hunters.

Elvira shook her head. "I hate that. With privilege comes responsibility.

You look like a decent person, so I am sure if you were born in my position, you would feel the same.

Only those assholes and stuck-up, selfish bastards would be happy to be born in this position.

I can only be friends with double-faced people and need to worry all the time.

How I act and do things all reflect back on my household. And we are not just talking about reputation here; it can affect our standing and power."

She then let out a sigh, her gaze becoming complicated.

The things she said had been stuck in her heart for a long time, like a burden nailed permanently to her shoulder.

Usually, she never said it to anyone, but now that her city was gone, she felt both devastated and weirdly relieved.

"With what happened, I am sure we will be stripped of our status now."

"Hahaha, that is where you are wrong, Elvira," Petricia said confidently.

"What happened came from my king. And I know him; he will never let us down, not anyone who puts faith in him.

Also, don't tell anyone this, but I know his real identity."

Hearing Petricia go all mysterious, Elvira became interested.

"What do you mean? I know he is a sovereign, but what more is there?"

"I know what sovereign means here. It is nothing in front of my king. He is a God, a true God," Petricia said with fanaticism in her eyes, filled with faith.

Elvira was weirded out by this. Even the grassroots class wouldn't act like this facing a sovereign. It was complete faith.

She decided not to comment since she knew Petricia would just get mad.

Those were eyes that would only accept yes as an answer.

Elvira still felt conflicted about Alex and MingYue, but she knew better than to fight against them now.

At this moment, Petricia changed her expression as Alex gave her new orders. "See what I told you? My God just gave me his decree."
