I wake up to the gentle rays of sunlight filtering through the window, signaling the start of a new day. Stretching my limbs and letting out a contented sigh, I turn my head to the side and find Stella lying peacefully beside . A smile tugs at the corners of my lips as I gaze at her delicate features.
"Good morning, Stella," I say, my voice brimming with warmth. "Did you sleep well?"
Stella stirs, her eyes fluttering open, and a faint blush graces her cheeks. She sits up, leaning on her elbow, and ets my gaze. "Yes, Master. I had a wonderful night," she replies, her voice soft and filled with shy affection.
I reach out to gently brush a strand of hair behind her ear, savoring the intimate connection between us. "I'm glad to hear that. Spending ti with you brings joy, Stella."
We engage in idle conversation, discussing our plans for the day and sharing light-hearted banter. As the conversation flows, Stella's eyes light up with a mischievous glimr.
"Wait here, Master," she says, her voice filled with excitent. "I'll go make you a special vampire al."
I watch as she gracefully gets out of bed, her movents akin to a dancer's, and makes her way toward the kitchen.
Fufufu, Stella is as cute as always...
[Master, now that you've evolved to your vampire lord stage, are you going to try out your new powers?]
Hearing a familiar voice in my head, I let out a sigh.
I don't think I can train today. We didn't even have a chance to talk yesterday. The old man kept fawning all over . Today, I have to address so vampire lords who wanted to see .
[Those pieces of trash. They should be punished, Master!]
Right... I also feel like punishing them, but I can't do that. As the heir, I have to have them under my control instead of driving them away. Moreover, if a war were to break out now, the vampire lords would be the ones to play the most crucial roles. Not even the king can punish them as he wishes unless they commit a grave sin.
[I see... What about Jill?]
Well, I haven't seen her since yesterday. I suppose she and Zamira are with the king, taking care of him.
[I thought he was fine yesterday.]
Yes, he is absolutely fine, but it's the vampires' culture for family mbers to take care of a vampire who has just awakened from slumber. If it weren't for my blood used in awakening him, he wouldn't even have had the strength to walk yesterday.
While conversing with Mimi, Stella brings in so blood-coated, half-cooked steaks served inside a white plate.
Without wasting any ti, I start eating, savoring every taste.
_____________________________________I think you should take a look at
I walk with purpose through the grand corridors of the vampire castle, making my way toward the eting chamber. As I enter, my eyes are greeted by the sight of seven vampire lords, their presence imposing and unfamiliar to . I take a seat among them, a mix of curiosity and caution bubbling within .
The vampire lords turn their attention toward , acknowledging my presence with nods and cordial greetings. There is a sense of anticipation in the air, and I brace myself for the discussion about to unfold.
One of the vampire lords, an elderly vampire with flowing white hair, steps forward. His aura exudes wisdom and experience, and his voice carries a weight that demands attention. He introduces himself as Odolff, a na resonating with power and authority.
"Prince Jake, we welco you," Odolff begins, his voice commanding the attention of the room. "On behalf of the vampire lords present here, I extend our apologies. We were misguided in our actions, supporting the Freeman family and the Sanguine Family. We realize the error of our ways and seek your forgiveness."
His words strike a chord within , and I regard the vampire lords with a mix of surprise and curiosity. They had sided with the families that had caused turmoil and threatened the balance of the vampire kingdom. It is both unexpected and intriguing to witness their willingness to admit their mistakes.
"I appreciate your honesty, Lord Odolff," I respond, my tone asured. "The actions of the past cannot be undone, but I will convey your remorse and desire for redemption to the king. I will plead for leniency on your behalf, as you have shown the courage to acknowledge your mistakes."
Odolff's expression softens, a glimr of gratitude in his eyes. "Thank you, Prince Jake. We place our hopes in your ability to convey our sincerity and commitnt to rectify the damage that has been done. We seek to rebuild trust and forge a new path under your reign."
I nod in acknowledgnt in response to Odolff's words. The other vampire lords' eyes also shine with excitent, while sighs of relief escape from the corners of their mouths.
"I'll surely convey your words to the king, and I promise to make him spare you, guys," I say with a smile on my face.

I walk with a mix of anticipation and trepidation as I make my way toward the vampire king's chamber. The grandeur of the castle surrounds , its opulence and power palpable in the air. Two formidable guards stand before the chamber, their imposing presence a clear testant to the authority that lies beyond the doors.
As I approach, the guards lock eyes with , their nacing aura montarily intensifying. However, upon recognizing my identity, they step aside, granting passage. I nod in acknowledgnt and enter the chamber.
The room unfolds before , a sight that leaves awestruck. It is larger than anything I could have imagined, with pristine white walls that stretch toward a high ceiling. Artifacts of imnse value and significance hang in perfect alignnt, their elegance enhanced by the monochromatic backdrop. Paintings depicting ancient vampires adorn the walls, their eyes seemingly following my every move.
But amidst this grandeur, my gaze is drawn to a particular object that stands out among the rest. A long sword rests upon a golden stand, its presence commanding attention. The chilling aura emanating from the sheathed blade sends a shiver down my spine. This is the demon-tier sword owned by Old Man Duke, a weapon of imnse power and danger.
