Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 290 Alucard Family

　　When Rudy was dealing with Vesier in space, something else was going on in the royal palace.

　　Jane had a glass of wine in her hand, but she hadn\'t drunk a sip. It was just to show the others present in the hall and act like she was enjoying it too, which she clearly wasn\'t.

　　She was waiting for the function to end so she could go find Rudy and apologize to him for what she had said to him when he helped her.

　　\'I so want to get out of here!\' she wished desperately. She lowered her gaze and muttered, "I am sure he is angry at me. I am such an idiot. I was so self-centered about focusing on his safety that I didn\'t pay attention to the feelings behind his actions."

　　She bit her lips and murmured, "I bet if it was Rias, she would have understood everything. I never tried to understand other feelings and emotions, not even mine. But I have no one to blame. I chose to live like that, but not anymore. I will have to change if I want to live with Rudy."

　　Meanwhile, Virgil is constantly gazing in a certain direction in the middle of the conversations.

　　"Is everything alright, vampire monarch?" one of the elderly guests with a long beard asked.

　　"Yeah, everything is fine," Virgil patted the man\'s shoulders and glanced at everyone else before saying, "I will be back in a few minutes. Please excuse me."

　　"Sure, sure."

　　After saying that, Virgil asked out of the hall. He walked to the balcony, which was also a lounge, to relax and enjoy the view.

　　"Hmm. They arrived here faster than I expected them to be. I guess the high-ranked pegasuses are not all talks…"

　　Virgil spread his wings and hovered in the air as a royal chariot stopped in front of him. Following that, the other chariots also stopped in mid-air, although the pegasuses were flapping their wings to stay in the air.

　　"What business does the Alucard kingdom have with me on the blood moon week?" Virgil asked with a furious look on his face.

　　A few seconds later, the door of the chariot in the middle opened, and a blonde-haired male vampire walked out.

　　"...." Virgil raised his brow in amusement but didn\'t say anything.

　　The vampire spread his hands in the air and smiled widely at Virgil before saying, "How are you doing, my dear friend, Virgil?"

　　"Luis… Alucard. The king of Alucard kingdom— the second largest kingdom of this world, 7420 years old, a friend of Vlad the twelfth. What are you doing here?" Virgil asked with the same expression on his face.

　　"What\'s with that introduction? I was planning to introduce myself in an elegant way, but never mind that." Luis scoffed out loud and said, "I am honored to have you personally welcome me. Now, shall we go to your palace and discuss things?"

　　"Answer my question, first. Why are you here?"

　　"Come on. Why are you so hostile?" He said in a friendly manner. "I have heard so many things about you. And how long has it been since we last met at your father\'s funeral? You have grown big, although that\'s obvious. And expected of the child blessed by the Lord himself, you became the Vampire Monarch and the strongest vampire of all time."

　　"I won\'t ask again. Why are you here?"

　　SIGH!

　　"Is this how you greet your guests? I was expecting a warm welcome, but you disappointed me, Virgil. Your father was a better man than you are, but I guess that was expected from someone you bedded a human girl," he commented.

　　"...."

　　"We are here to discuss something, as I already answered," he then responded after seeing Virgil wasn\'t impressed by his remark.

　　"Discuss what? Can\'t you do it after the blood moon week? You should know as an elder how much this week means to us vampires," Virgil commented.

　　"That\'s the reason why we are here. Now, are you going to invite us to your palace or not?"

　　"If you planned to come, you should have informed us beforehand," Virgil sighed. "We would have arranged a welcome for you. But, sure. Follow me."

　　Virgil flew to the palace, and the chariots followed him.

　　"There is a function going on, so you will have to wait until it ends," Virgil informed.

　　"Oh, no worries. We will gladly join the function. Instead, I think it\'s for the best if everyone is present. After all, it\'s going to be a memorable function," Luis responded and followed Virgil to the hall.

　　Soldiers and maids also came out of the chariot and accompanied Luis. But among them, there was an individual who looked similar to Luis. Seemingly, he was his son.

　　They all entered the hall together, following Virgil. But the royals and nobles present in the hall turned hostile as soon as they saw the flag of another kingdom in their hall.

　　CLAP~ CLAP!

　　Virgil clapped loudly, and the hall turned silent within a second.

　　"Ladies and gentlemen! Please welcome the king and his son of the Alucard kingdom! They will be joining us today to make our day even better!" Virgil announced.

　　The Royals didn\'t look happy, and the nobles didn\'t care. But since the Vampire Monarch himself ordered them, they had to put act and act as though they were happy on their arrival.

　　However, there was one person who couldn\'t care enough for any of that, and that was Jane.

　　\'Gah! I was looking forward for this function to end! But now I will have to— no! Who cares! I will just quietly leave the hall when everyone is busy with the guests!\'

　　Jane glanced around and made a perfect strategy to leave the hall without being noticed by anyone, but just as she walked a few steps away from her position, Luis caught Jane.

　　"Oho! Is that the infamous princess, the child of the blue moon?"

　　Jane frowned her face and forced a smile on her face as she turned to them.

　　Virgil stood in between and said, "So, what did you want to discuss?"

　　"We are here for a marriage proposal."
