Vampire's Slice of Life

Chapter 601 Banquet Ends

"What is it, Your Highness?" Dennis asked Lith regarding the thing.

Lith smiled and took out two manuals from thin air and handed it to them.

Ralph and Dennis had a look at them and browsing through the pages, Dennis said with surprise,

"Eh? Dual cultivation manual?" 

The two of them looked at Lith, with visible confusion on their faces. Both of them wondered why Lith would give something like that to them.

Lith smiled and said to the two, "That's right. I want you guys to cultivate using those techniques. It'll help raise your magic rank faster."

Reaching the peak of cultivation and magic was a long journey. The path is a lonely one and Lith was well aware of it.

In the past years when he was cut off from the world, cultivating in seclusion in the cave with just his mother being there, Lith understood how bad it was.

When he was out, he had become far stronger than his peers. Let alone others, he went ahead of even his wife, Alexandra.

It felt sad to Lith and he knew this was something that he needed to figure it out quickly so that his friends and family weren't left behind.

But as time went on, Lith became fortunate enough to inherit Grand Lust Sovereign's legacy which opened a path of cultivation to him that would allow such a situation to not occur.

In the inheritance there was a manual that taught how to open a sect and pass down the teachings, eventually getting the sect from the bottom of the world to the top.

Through this manual, Lith got the idea of passing the teachings to others and have them cultivate faster. 

Thus, he planned to give those teachings to Ralph and Dennis as it would help them be stronger and not get left behind.

Despite having so many reasons, Lith didn't explain it fully to Ralph and Dennis. He kept it to himself as there were some things that would be best if left unsaid.

Dennis, going through the manual, frowned and said, "Your Highness, this thing states that I'll need to constantly have sex with my partner if I want to raise my rank." 

Ralph knitted his brows as well hearing that. He too felt this was an issue Lith should be aware of.

Lith smirked. "Yes. Is there a problem?"

"Obviously." Dennis nodded. He pointed towards Ralph and said, "I am fine with it, but think about Ralph, Your Highness. That guy has zero bitches and I am damn sure he can't score one to do something like this."

"..." 

"Pfft…"

Ralph was speechless and turned to look at Dennis with an annoyed look while Lith struggled to contain his laughter and not burst out hearing that.

Dennis sighed and shaking his head, said, "Poor guy… he's the perfect example of the saying that goes looks aren't enough to get bitch—"

SMACK!

"OW!" 

Ralph folded the manual in his hand and smacked Dennis's head with it.

Looking at the two, Lith burst out in laughter while Dennis rubbed his head and cursed,

"Hey! Stopping hit my head. What if I become as stupid as you!" 

Ralph looked at him and said with a straight face, "bold of you to assume you aren't already stupid." 

Dennis wrinkled his nose hearing that. "Yeah right. Being around you, I have definitely become stupider." 

Ralph glared at him. "That's what I should say." 

"Alright, you two." Lith chimed in to calm the situation. He smiled and said to them, "Give those techniques a shot, you'll see improvements in no time.

Dennis nodded but Ralph still had some questions. He looked at Lith and asked, 

"Following this manual won't make us forced to have just one path, the dual cultivation one, right?" 

Lith nodded. "Absolutely. You can do anything and everything while using this technique. That's the beauty of it. Say you were trying to be a Fire path immortal, you can still be one while using these techniques. It's that flexible."

"Interesting." Ralph said.

"Ooooh! That sounds amazing." Dennis added.

Lith smiled. "I know right."

Dennis then asked, "Your Highness, will this raise the magic rank of our partner too?" 

Lith nodded. "But it is totally up to you if you just want to use them to cultivate yourself to a higher realm or have them get stronger along with you."

"Nice!" Dennis said.

Lith smirked and asked, "who are you going to cultivate with? Cecilia?" 

He chuckled after saying so and Ralph flashed a small smile hearing that as well.

"Hey!" The comment caught Dennis off guard.

Lith then turned to look at Ralph and asked, "You probably won't have trouble in this, right? The Lust demons are already used to such things."

Ralph nodded. "Although the lust demons don't have a problem regarding it, I haven't actively indulged myself in it so I don't have any idea how it is."

Lith felt interested. He asked, "Any reason for not indulging? Don't worry, you don't have to answer if you don't want to."

Ralph shook his head. "I don't know. I probably just had a lot of things to do and it didn't interest me to indulge in sexual activities with others." 

"But things are different now, aren't they?" Dennis asked from the side.

"That's right." Ralph nodded. "I had to go through this path sooner or later since I am a Lust Demon. From what I've been told, it's a compulsion for us to do those things. If we don't, there will be health problems."

"Damn." Dennis was surprised. Lith too was, but he didn't let out an exaggerated reaction like Dennis. 

"What sort of health problems?" Dennis asked.

Ralph looked at him and said calmly, "there would be mild headaches at first, then pain in the private areas, followed by pain all over the body. The worst that can happen is one's cultivation will be crippled and in extreme cases… death." 

"The fuck!?" Lith and Dennis both exclaimed.

Ralph nodded. "Believe it or not, it's true. But well… There hasn't been anyone who has experienced such things because all lust demons have the innate instincts of giving in to their carnal pleasures. So although nobody has been crippled or died, we do believe that such a scenario may occur."

Lith and Dennis were amused hearing that.

Dennis walked close to Ralph and patting his shoulder, said, "buddy… don't worry. If you won't get any bitches, I'll take you to Red Leaver City."

Ralph knitted his brows and glared at Dennis. He didn't know what Red Leaver City was but he could tell that it wasn't anything good from Dennis's tone.

Lith chuckled hearing that. While doing so, he remembered the time he took his sister to Red Leaver City and how she misunderstood his intentions there.

Red Leaver City had the biggest red light district in the whole continent and Dennis was talking about taking Ralph there to get him laid.

The three people continued to talk together for a while in the courtyard and after Lith was done giving them the things, he asked them to enjoy the party and parted ways with the two.

The banquet went on for a few days and everyone had a good time together.

There were lots of dances, events, and various other things happening in the City Hall. People from around the world took a break from doing things and watched what was happening in Nightingale on the live stream.

Evernight City was lively and things were pretty busy throughout day and night as people were celebrating continuously.

People were partying as the banquet went on and there were various reasons for doing so. Some were partying as they were happy to see the Queen, some because they found people to party with, and some because drinks were free in Evernight until the end of the banquet. 

Finally, after a whole week, the banquet ended with Lucy making yet another appearance.

She addressed some issues in the Vampire Society and promoted and demoted some clans according to the way she saw fit.

The banquet then successfully ended with everyone going home.

Lith spent some time with his wives in the Royal Castle after the banquet until they felt satisfied and content.

The wives then left to do their jobs. Emilia went to administer the academy, Arya took Alexandra with her to train her, and Lucy took Lilith along to have her teach a few things regarding governance, leaving Lith alone in the castle.

Lith, now being alone, finally could do the things he was planning to do.

He walked through the vast and empty hallways of the castle and made his way towards the garden of the castle in the outer periphery.

He had gotten news that there was a pit in the garden which had lots and lots of creatures torturing one single man.

He wanted to see what it was and how it was. 

He currently possessed more than a hundred people from all around the globe who were trying to spread fake nude images of his dear wife. 

He had shown mercy to them at that time because he was short on time, but now… now he had all the time he needed.

Lith walked into the garden and just as he set foot in there, he saw two young butlers fly towards him.

The two guys soon reached him and bowed.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"
