BXBX NOVEL Chapter 22 Meeting
(Lucian POV)
I flicked my fingers. A flame erupted, burning the bandits\' bodies into ash. The girl slowly walked towards my back. She seemed a little nervous.
"Excuse me, sir, might you be a member of nobility?" asked the Elven girl, twiddling her thumbs.
\'Well, I am a vampire noble, so there\'s no problem in saying yes.\' I thought. She was most likely the Elven queen\'s little sister, after all.
"I am indeed. It\'s a pleasure to meet such an adorable Elven princess like yourself." I said, giving a small bow, gently kissing her. The girl gave a small blush, stroking my fingers with hers.
\'Ah? Does he already know who I am? Is he just complimenting me? How embarrassing! He kissed me. No man may touch my body… Eldest sister will be angry. But his skin is really soft.\'
The girl grasped my hand, raising her head. She seemed to become much more determined as she stared into my eyes. Her hand separated from mine with a slight sense of loss that flashed in her eyes.
"Might I deem to give an introduction? My inadequate self is named Altamira, youngest princess of Arrindell. You have my praise, valiant knight."
\'Talking like my sister is so embarrassing… Please don\'t think I\'m annoying!\' She thought after speaking. Her white dress blew into the wind, revealing her pure white thighs as I stood in a slight sense of shock. She was the princess of my enemy and the future queen of the elves after her most trusted retainers betrayed her sister. I placed my hand on my silver hair, stroking through it, wondering what to do.
\'If she becomes my ally, then should I still let her most loved person be killed next year?\'
"It\'s my pleasure, your highness. My name Is Lucian Von Silver, a simple baron delighted to be in your presence." I acted overly dramatic, as elves loved to be pretentious and vain. \'It\'s a little tiresome acting like this. Should I just kill her to save all the effort?\'

"Hehe, you don\'t need to be so stiff. Let\'s just treat each other like fellow elves! Just call me Mira. Lucian." Mira gave a giggle and pranced forward with gentle steps. She stood beside Lucian, her beautiful blue eyes glistened while looking at his every inch. He was more than a head taller than her as she was roughly 160cm tall, unlike her sister, who was over 200cm in height. She was often called the black sheep of the royal family.
"Ah, thank you prin-Mira. So may I ask why you are currently here? I thought the princess was currently in the border town of Silvosa?" Lucian said. He felt the fact she believed he was an elf was helpful for the moment, but he would tell her the truth before they parted.
Mira swayed her body, looking at him with a mischievous face. She spoke to him. Her body was very animated as she used her arms to draw pictures and her face showed countless wonder and joy.
"I snuck out! Those annoying performances are so stupid! They insist elves are the best and other races are ugly and inferior. The other races have good parts too! Dwarves can craft the most amazing tools. Humans have great wisdom and strength despite being one of the weakest races. Demons have so much variety. It\'s wonderful!"
Then the girl\'s face turned deep red as she poked her index fingers together. "Hehe and the vampires… They suck blood. I\'d like to try it sometime." Her voice trailed off towards the end. She flickered her long eyelashes, worried he\'d find her a pervert or freak. Elven men hated it when females found other races attractive. \'Oh? That\'s good. He looks completely unaffected. I\'m glad, please don\'t find me strange!\'
[Mira + 5 Affection]
Lucian had worked on the carriage. Its axel wasn\'t broken, so his earth magic could repair the wheel with ease. The horse hadn\'t run away. It was just eating hay despite their master and owner being dead. Once he had repaired the carriage, he jumped onto the driver\'s bench and reached out towards Mira.
"Well, I can understand your views. I\'m also excited to see this vast world and all the people who live here. As for the vampire thing, you just might meet a nice one when you least expect. Haha."
His eyes shone with a crimson light as her soft hand grasped his. "Ahh!" She yelped as Lucian pulled her onto the carriage, placing the little princess onto his lap. He acted like it was an accident, so she didn\'t feel strange.
\'Ah… His body is so strong and muscular, this smell it\'s so addictive like strawberry jam.\'
Her little nose kept sniffing his scent as she forgot about sitting on his lap. She lay her soft body back onto his chest as the carriage moved toward a different border town to the northeast. Their travel filled with the sound of the trotting horse\'s hooves.
"You\'re such a cute girl. If somebody other than me found you, what would you have done if they wanted to abuse you?" He asked, noticing the princess had fallen asleep gripping his chest. She kept calling out the name Velaria and cuddling him even tighter.
Lucian looked up at the moon, that was slowly appearing. It was almost night and the forest road was filled with darkness and the noises of animal calls. He had covered the cute princess with a thick cloth to keep her warm. Her drool now soaking his black tunic, which caused him a slight irritation.
"Velaria Galadrith Celebrim, huh?" Lucian said.
\'In the game, the Elven queen fought hard to protect her people and sisters. To the front are her bitter enemies, the demons, and behind was the council that seemed to desire the destruction of the Elven kingdom.\'
He took a moment to remember her plot and character. The player never saw a splash art of her, so he did not know what she looked like. Lucian looked forward to meeting this queen in the future.
\'Her thoughts on other races aren\'t like normal elves. This is probably the same as Mira in his embrace, causing her to become less racist. In a year, she will attend the academy at the same time they attacked the demon queen Chiharu. In order to protect the Elven students, she takes a poisoned blade that slowly devours her life.\'
