The Bored Immortal

Vanessa looked at Nyissa and shrugged, "Naturally. Both our people do not like anybody digging out our controversial past and now…" Vanessa continued as she looked at Viktor with a cold stare, "...you had the galls to proclaim yourself as the illegitimate descendant of both our races. You have no idea what you have pulled yourself into. Even the fact that you are still breathing now is a miracle."

Even though her words could clearly terrify anyone, Viktor wasn't one to get intimidated like that as he raised one of his brows and asked, "Oh, is that so? Then why haven't you people tried to get rid of me or something? And aside from that…who are you to come here as a representative of your race? Are all messengers over there beauties or what?"

"Did you just call me a messenger?" Vanessa asked as her gaze became frigid.

However, Viktor stepped closer as he looked into her eyes and asked, "Then tell me who you are? Otherwise, what can I call a person who came from such a faraway world to spy on me? I am the reason you stayed low all this time was to get more information on me…right? That means whoever sent you must be interested in me."

Vanessa's expression quickly tensed and relaxed, though Viktor easily noticed it as he said with a headshake, "So I am indeed right. Somebody important in your kingdom must want to meet me."

Vanessa scoffed as she shook her head, "I won't say that you are not wrong. But at the same time, you must be dreaming if you think you can meet such an important person just like that. You are, at best, a Prime Vampire during the day, and Prime Vampires do not deserve his attention or anything. However…he somehow found out that you are more than just a vampire. A hybrid of both werewolf and vampire, if I have to be precise. The first of your kind to live a normal life while blending with mortals. But…loathed by both races. No wonder you were staying hidden all this time. It only makes me feel even more confused about why you suddenly revealed yourself. I can't believe you exposed yourself to danger for a woman."

"Why? Are you just jealous that you haven't yet found a man who will do the same for you? And maybe considering your lofty attitude, I won't be surprised if you are still a virgin," Viktor said with a sarcastic chuckle. He knew that even if Vanessa looked so young, her age was far above what appeared to be on the outside.

"You dare!" Vanessa's face flushed red as if Viktor struck right at her thoughts. Her nerves were clearly visible on her neck and temples as she stared daggers at Viktor since this was the first time someone was being so impudent to her. Those who feared death would never dare to be like this to her, and it was not as if Viktor had no idea where she was coming from.

"Calm down, girl. I was just kidding. Besides, don't forget you were the first to judge me. So it's only right that you expect to get judged back as well. That is how the law of karma works no matter where you are coming from or who you are," Viktor said as he shook his head.

It was not as if he really believed in the law of karma since fate had been pretty shitty to him for centuries for no reason, especially since the moment he woke up in this world and lost his only family within decades. Still, he wanted to teach this arrogant girl a lesson and couldn't find something more apt.

"Mere laws cannot affect our bloodline that originates from a divine being who cannot even be killed. Not even by gods or demons. But I guess someone like you coming from some random lowly bloodline won't understand," Vanessa said with a harsh squint.

"That's not true. You have no idea how powerful my fiance's bloodline is. If you knew, you would think twice before saying anything disrespectful about him," Nyissa just couldn't stand Vanessa belittling her fiance in front of her, especially when she mentioned his bloodline.

Disrespecting one's bloodline was no different from disrespecting one's family or parents. That was how important one's bloodline was in the supernatural world. But of course, Viktor didn't feel insulted or anything since he lived in a different environment as far as he remembered.

Vanessa crossed her arms as she raised one of her eyebrows and said, "And the young mistress of a low-born clan knows better?"

"Mind your words, vampire," Nyissa immediately said in an unkind tone as she looked at Vanessa with an ice-cold stare.

"Or what? I know who you are, witch," Vanessa continued with a stone-cold expression, "You are the illegitimate daughter of the Azure Sea Clan. Your mother is the esteemed Mistress of one of the most powerful upper-class clans, while your father is just a patriarch of a lowly clan. And yet you took advantage of the name of my kingdom to squeeze out of the marriage your mother's clan arranged for you. How despicable. Your fiance, I can understand. He is just a rogue hybrid with crude behavior and an ignorant mentality. But you…I guess nobody can expect any better from someone whose half of the blood inside her comes from an inferior clan."

Nyissa clenched her fists hearing her direct yet corrosive remarks, and if Vanessa was not a denizen of the mighty Icemoon Kingdom, she would have burned her down here and then.

But for Viktor's sake and her clan's sake, she could only bottle up her anger and indignation at having to hear these words.

No matter what, offending such a powerful kingdom would bring no benefits but only troubles.

Viktor could feel the change in Nyissa's mood and saw her fist trembling subtly even though her expression seemed calm.

He held her hand gently and then looked at Vanessa as he said in a low voice, "Apologize to her."
