The Strongest Hybrid: An Epic Comeback

Magnus

I locked myself in the room all day yesterday. The words that Father said were touching. Even his decisions when it comes to me, he doesn't even question me. I was like a rebel child to him. I'm really young when it comes to vampires. Compared to mortals, I'm still like a teenager here in the Underworld. The adult age base here is 80 years old. Those who live in the Underworld are immortal, we will not die if we are not killed. No one can kill us but other races.

Vampires also have weaknesses, that is the bite of werewolves. The vampire council has also banned werewolves from approaching our vampires every full moon. Even though we are much stronger than them, their bites are poisonous.

Each race has a council. Vampire council, moon council for werewolves, and magic council for witches. Compared to mortals, the council is like senators. Thinks and makes laws before being approved by the emperors. Emperors are still supreme.

When it comes to witches, their race is brainy. They are good at manipulating spells but they are no match without their spell book. They can also fly.

I was shocked when I heard the shouting of my father and mother. They screamed at the chin. My father did not want me to participate but my mother supported me. My mother is still good, has confidence in my ability.

In front of our castle the tournament will be held later. Women and royals from other kingdoms who will come to watch will surely be waiting for me. They will watch me humiliated like they call the 'king prince worthless. I will prove them wrong. I will give them a shock that they will only feel now. I will prove that I can knock them down. And my secret weapon? My overflowing self-confidence.

I called my servants. They move so slowly that I hesitate to fly them. I'm going to get a new vampire pet. You will be my personal one.

My slaves poured milk into the bathtub. I grinned after it was filled. I let them out before I undressed.

My naked body appeared in front of the magical mirror. The woman who will captivate me is very lucky, but having a romantic partner is not on my mind. That would only hinder my leadership. It's a good thing you don't because nothing will stop me from tasting different princesses with delicious and sweet blood.

I first soaked and bathed in milk. When I was satisfied, I then rinsed and got dressed. I wore slacks and white long-sleeves. Its first two buttons are open. I wore expensive black shoes on my feet. I still have to be a handsome guy while fighting.

I looked into the magic mirror to check my posture. I'm ready for later, I'm sure I won't even break a sweat. I can knock them down easily.

I sat in my swivel chair facing the veranda. My windows are open so I can clearly hear downstairs. The audience was really loud. I don't know why the tournament will be held in front of the castle instead of in the arena. Maybe it's for the participants to think about reducing vandalism. I grinned. My father will try to stop me from joining and I will show him my strength that I used to practice every day. I will destroy his beloved castle.

"The participants who signed up are being called! Enter here on our ground!"

I looked into the magical mirror to examine my posture. I am ready for later, surely I won't even sweat. I'll easily bring them down.

"The rules of the contest are simple. The strongest and the last participant standing will fight against Prince Simone of the Halycon Kingdom. There are witches standing by as the medics of our contest. The winner of this contest will be appointed king of the Verdania Kingdom! Let the last man standing begin!" shouted the announcer.

The audience cheered. Everyone was ecstatic. Just bear with them if they have kids with them. I won't show mercy.

One by one, the participants were called. I didn't know any of them. They seemed to be weak types, probably ordinary citizens or members of authority in our empire. I also heard earlier that Thomas was included. I don't know if that kid will oppose me. He doesn't seem to care about the world yet. All that matters to him is his virtual girlfriend, Meliora.

"Prince Thomas Raine Walker! Spade Compton!" announcement below.

My sibling is also participating. I know they have no intention of becoming king yet. I also have no intention of crushing the bones of that child.

As the announcement was ending, I stood up. Whether I am called or not, I will step down from that competition.

"And lastly, Prince Magnus Lewis Walker!"

When I heard my name, I grinned. From the veranda I jumped down from the height of my room. It was ten stories high that I didn't pay attention to. It's time to prove that I'm strong and worthy to be king.

When I fell to the ground I was covered in sweat. I bent slightly to resist the force of the impact. I also intended to force the fall to break the ground. What a great crack I made. The other participants also retreated out of fear.

When I lifted my gaze, my eyes met those of my father, Emperor Darius. I smiled and adjusted my attire.

"Watch, father."

Magnus

The audience cheered because of my sudden appearance. They were moved to see me fight. I will now prove to them the extraordinary natural strength that Prince Magnus, the prince they always look down on, has. I'm sick of being underestimated. A handsome man like me who will be appointed king has no time to be affected by what they say.

I waved to the audience and winked at the women. They giggled loudly in response. I grinned, knowing well that my charm never fails with women. After all, I am Prince Maruem.

I looked up at the ascending figure of my father heading towards the noble section. There was Prince Simone, the prince whose arm I cut yesterday. Beside him was Princess Nitara whom I winked at. The weak prince seemed fine again. It seems the sorcerers intervened in what happened to him. He should be thankful that the sorcerers assigned to our kingdom are skilled; otherwise, he would be called the prince of Halycon with a severed arm. He should also be thankful that's all I did to him. I'm fed up with their unstoppable mouths. They are arrogant, their heads filled only with air.

"These are our brave contestants for the contest! And the last man to win, he will be appointed king of the Verdania Kingdom! Which of our contestants will win!?" shouted the speaker loudly.

Is that still being asked? I will win. I will fight anyone. Thomas won't give up either because he knows how to make me angry and fight back. I will not hesitate to crush him.

"Now the names of the contestants will be read out. Who will be the first lucky one to fight!?" shouted the speaker.

The audience cheered once more. I found myself bored with his latest announcement. Why won't he start already? I yearn for this to be over. There are still countless matters to plan and alter within the Verdania Kingdom once I assume the throne. It seems many fail to recognize the flaws in Father's conduct. He's been too preoccupied with his role as emperor to notice. It's quite the feat that he managed to govern both the Verdania Kingdom and the Primrose Imperia simultaneously.

"The first to fight will be Prince Thomas Raine Walker and Spade Compton! The first to fight will take their place! And for those who are not going to fight yet, please sit down," the speaker shouted loudly.

I was deafened by the loudness of his voice. Microphone volume is too high. Don't they get irritated? I'm just going to cut that animal's throat.

I sat in the empty seat. A civilian was right next to me when I scared him with my crimson eyes. It was terrified and ran to the other end.

The empty seats were mine so I could freely throw my arms around them. Two on the right, four on the left. I just grinned. They make sure this match is going to be good and I'm going to enjoy it. The moment I lose the appetite to watch I will finish all the contestants sitting here.

My brother Thomas was just standing in front in the middle. He is still playing his PSP and wearing big headphones. He doesn't care about his opponent.

"Let the battle begin!" shouted the judge.

The big bell was rung to signal the start of the match. My brother didn't even care. I smirked secretly, this boy knows how to brag. His ability is no joke either.

"Hey, can't you be serious!? Even if you're a prince, I won't regret beating you up!" shouted Thomas's opponent.

My brother glanced upwards, his eyes transforming into a fiery red hue as black smoke billowed from his body. This was the manifestation of my brother's formidable power-the smoke of nightmares.

Thomas possessed the ability to unleash dense black smoke. Once it enveloped its target, the outcome became uncertain. None could foresee what fate awaited the victim trapped within its shroud. Only when Thomas's smoke dissipated did the true horror unfold, leaving his adversaries writhing in agony and driven to madness. The excruciating torment inflicted by his power was only fully comprehended by those unfortunate enough to experience it firsthand.

Thomas's opponent was about to attack him but the smoke quickly swirled around his body. It looked like he was upset when he couldn't leave. He seems to know his fate.

A few minutes passed when Thomas's smoke disappeared in the middle. It still continues to play and doesn't care about the surroundings. When he heard the cry of his opponent, he then walked away.

Thomas was about to leave when he thought he was seating the contestants who were done. He scratched his head and, in an instant, he was next to me.

"Hi brother," he greeted me.

"Stay away from me, this is my place. Stay far away," I ordered him.

"I don't like it, they stink. I'm not going to tease you. I'm just ranking here in my game," my brother made an excuse so I just sneered. I let him sit next to me.

The man who fought against Thomas went insane. He was captured by witches and imprisoned in a glass chamber. He screams. If I were just a normal vampire, I might have been frightened by Thomas. But no, I am Maruem. Thomas is the one afraid of me even though I don't have any special abilities or powers. But there's one vampire we can't overpower, and that's Lilith. Our sister who is brutal. But if they disrespect me, I won't allow it. I'm still the eldest, I won't let my siblings be disrespectful especially if their decisions or actions are wrong.

Despite her formidable nature, I refused to tolerate disrespect, especially from my younger siblings. As the eldest, it was my duty to ensure they understood the importance of making sound decisions and displaying proper behavior.

I almost forgot about Pearl again, my brother who is always absent. I thought Lilith and Thomas were my only siblings once. Because Pearl can't control his bloodlust even at her young age. Especially her power, she can control water. He can blow up a vampire because there is water in the blood.

Three more pairs followed. I'm fed up and hungry since I called. If I haven't been called here, I'll really be on the scene.

I pay little mind to seeking attention, as it naturally gravitates towards me anyway. However, if I'm not lauded for my striking appearance, taller vampires often regard me with disdain, as if they deem me a worthless prince. Yet, today marks the end of such demeaning monikers. They attempt to label me with nicknames that fail to resonate with me, and I find myself increasingly indifferent to their attempts at humor. While I typically brush off such jests, there are moments when their taunts become intolerable, and I refuse to let them slide without consequence.

"For the next pair! It's Prince Magnus Lewis Walker and General Rido Campton!" shouted the speaker.

I sighed and then stood up. I was finally called. I thought I had to volunteer.

I went to the center and faced my opponent. I even fixed a collar in front of him.

Its body is large and brown. The speaker called him a general earlier, this guy looks like he's in the military. Maybe that's why he waved arrogantly at the audience.

"Prince Magnus, give up if you don't want to be embarrassed. Everyone knows that you don't have any special abilities. I also know that your father has favored you again because you will make a commotion. Aren't you ashamed that you are just a big embarrassment?" I heard him whisper.

My eyes turned red. What I don't like is that everyone underestimates me. I will not bring this animal back to life. I will make sure he screams in pain and begs me not to kill him.

"Let the battle begin!"

When I heard the signal I immediately sharpened my nails and strengthened my bones like metal. General Matthias rushed towards me so quickly that I grinned. He made a mistake when he planned to rush.

With my right hand I looked at his body. When it was in front of me, I stuck my hand like a knife in his chest. There he stopped and vomited blood.

I grinned and straightened up from my mess earlier. I lifted his body in the air like a cup of tea. I'm holding his heart and just one more than it, he's dead.

"I strictly forbid killing! Anyone who kills will be eliminated from the tournament!" my father shouted loudly to stop me.

I shrugged and threw this general's body far away. I shook my bloodied right hand as I returned to my seat earlier.

When I sat next to Thomas, he quickly moved to the next seat. It dodged my bloody hand. He didn't want his clothes to get dirty.

"Don't rub that on me," he said.

"It's like you don't drink blood," I said, shaking my head.

The remaining five pairs concluded their matches swiftly, with many opting out upon witnessing the formidable strength of Thomas and myself. They wisely chose to avoid the risk of succumbing to madness from my brother's power or facing the consequences of challenging me. Their decisions were prudent.

Now, only the victors from the initial pair of battles remained. They would face off once more in the second stage, with the final confrontation looming as the ultimate test of strength. In this last stage, all participants would engage in a battle to the death.

The first to be called were two civilian vampires I didn't know. I tried to watch how they fought. How ordinary vampires defend themselves.

The announcer introduced the two men who would fight as Chantrell and Aidan. Chantrell is wearing a cloak so I can't see his face. Aidan, on the other hand, looks like he is also part of the military.

The two began to fight. This Chantrell turned Aidan. Its fighting style is amazing. It was like dancing around Aidan. His opponent also becomes anxious.

Chantrell's movement suddenly sped up. Within a second, he stabbed Aidan in the stomach. Chantrell returned to dancing again. It looks like a woman when it moves.

Chantrell was about to stab Aidan again when Aidan grabbed Chantrell's cloak and was removed. The audience gasped when we saw Chantrell's long hair. It's a woman, a beautiful woman. I can also smell her sweet blood.

I grinned, if Aidan hadn't been able to stun this Chantrell, he would have lost. Chantrell is strong if that's really his name.

We both stared at each other. It's beautiful and her eyes are different colors that are fascinating. The left is blue and the right is green. If it was only a princess, I might have strangled her neck to taste her sweet blood.

The woman who introduced herself as Chantrell was promptly removed from the competition, and Aidan was declared the victor. I can't help but wonder why they fail to recognize women as equals in such matters. If Lilith were to enter this contest, I would undoubtedly channel all my energy into facing her. Despite my strength, I anticipate that she would pose a formidable challenge. However, the underlying reasons for excluding women from these contests of succession remain unclear to me. It reflects a troubling inequality in perception and treatment.

All of us siblings are strong, especially Lilith and I, the two oldest. But I'm the strongest of us when it comes to physicality, even though I don't have any special abilities yet.

Lilith can control the weather. She can also lighten the sky. And all the climates that appear are red. The sky will turn red, red rainwater, red clouds, and red lightning. Thomas is his smoke and Pearl is her ability to control water. All vampires can't control their bloodlust especially when the ability is just released. My father couldn't control Pearl even more because it had the ability to explode the blood inside a creature's body.

After losing the commotion, they once again chose the next fighter. And when Thomas called us, that's when I looked at my father. It looks bad to give a warning. He knows we can kill each other. When we all fought when we were kids the whole castle was almost destroyed.

Thomas and I stood up and went to the center. He left his headphones and PSP on the seat because it looked like our fight was going to be serious. I thought it wouldn't work for me.

We stared intently as brothers. Just because Thomas is only fifteen years old doesn't make him look like a toddler. A vampire's face and body rejuvenate quickly when it reaches the age of thirteen. A vampire's face will stop aging when it reaches the age of twenty-five. In Thomas's case he looks eighteen years old. But his brain is just right for his age.

"Are you sure you will fight me, BrotherMagnus?" Thomas asked, making me smirk.

"If you want I really won't stop myself from killing you, Thomas. You just say one thing and I'll give it to you," I whispered, making us both grins.

Magnus

"Stop it, Magnus and Thomas. I'll lock you two up when you make a scene. You two should settle down, you don't look like princes."

I grinned when I heard that whisper of my father the king. Thomas snorted. I still don't know what this kid is planning.

The bell rang, signaling the start of the match. Thomas slowly raised his two hands. His smoke is coming out all around.

I grinned and shook my head. Looks like we're both going to fight. Just don't cry for this brother of mine because I will make sure that he will feel the pain of defeat.

My eyes are red. I stiffened my bones in my right hand again to prepare to pounce on Thomas. My nails also got longer. Looks like I'll have to move from my seat.

The smoke spread faster around until it enveloped us both. When the audience and I no longer saw each other, Thomas raised both hands.

"I'm giving up, brother. I know you're strong. I want to live and be with my girlfriend Meliora." I couldn't help shaking my head at what Thomas said. This kid, I don't know if I should laugh or tell him about his girlfriend, Meliora.

"You know Meliora is only virtual and not real, right?" I will ask.

"I know, but you're not there anymore. The important thing is that I have a girlfriend. And then I give up, you win. Don't bother me again," said Thomas and lay down on the ground.

My body calmed down and the smoke around me gradually disappeared. I crossed my hand over my chest while waiting for the smoke around me to disappear completely. When everyone saw Thomas's appearance, many gasped. This guy is really good at acting and developing a plan.

"Prince Magnus has won! Give a rousing round of applause for the firstborn prince!" shouted the speaker.

The audience cheered but the faces of others showed disappointment. A lot of people don't want me to win because I don't have any special abilities. Other vampires, especially the elders, believe that the one with the strongest abilities should rule a royal family. Well, I'm going to prove that wrong. I am strong even without ability. I'm special even without that. Leadership is in my blood and I can achieve all of that. I just need to not give up and not listen to the hurtful words that others will throw at me. My heart is made of stone, I spent a long-time molding and preparing it.

The witches ran to Thomas with a stretcher. They immediately helped my brother who was pretending to just regain consciousness and was still holding his head. Before taking it out, Thomas winked at me.

I sat back in my seat. I was fed up when the next ones were over. This is the last stage. Remain strong. I don't care how many more we fight because I will win. I will fight Prince Simone and make him taste the shame.

"To all the remaining contestants, you are called to go to the center and find your own place. The remaining strong will begin before facing Prince Simone for the final stage of the contest to choose the next king!" shouted the speaker causing the audience to disappear again.

I clicked my fingers to make sure the pain they would feel would penetrate to the bone. They will regret joining this contest.

"Let the battle begin!"

When the speaker announced that, everyone surrounded me. It seems they have discussed a tactic to use. They thought they were up now? Well, they make mistakes.

They rushed at the same time so that my eyes turned red and my nails sharpened. I put my left hand behind my back to show that I won't use it. Let the bloodshed begin.

I moved quickly to pass my enemy vampires. I scratched all of them deeply on the neck to make sure they couldn't recover. Before they fell to the ground, I also quickly broke their ribs.

When I returned to the place they fell together. Because of my effort to get stronger, I became faster. Double the speed compared to their speed. Physical ability alone is no match for them. Even though I don't have any special abilities or powers, I'm naturally strong.

The audience was shocked, even the speaker who made the announcement, because almost no one saw the speed of the event. I wiped my hand while staring at my father. My mother clapped softly.

It had no emotion as it stared at me. That's often the father's expression when holding back anger or annoyance. I sneered at him before looking at Prince Simone. The looks it gives me are bad. I tried to listen to his heartbeat. The nervousness is already screaming.

"Dear viewers, before we step into the final stage of the contest we will have a brief–"

"Keep fighting! There's no reason to prolong this! You're just making me wait longer," I yelled.

The speaker stopped because of my loud shout. He glanced at the king before glancing at me. I glared at it so it felt scared and announced it again.

"Due to Prince Magnus's request, the tournament will continue! We have reached the final stage!" shouted the speaker. "Prince Simone is being called to come down here for the final stage of the tournament."

From above, Prince Simone jumped in front of me. The audience cheered loudly in admiration. That's all he did? Nonsense. If only they saw how I cut off that one's arm.

"Time for Prince Magnus to win against Prince Simone, he will be crowned king of the Verdania Kingdom! But time for Prince Magnus to lose, the contest will repeat and find new contestants! So now, let the battle begin!" shouted the speaker loudly.

The audience roared. I was seriously looking at Prince Simone while he was still waving to the crowd as if he had a fan club. I'm more handsome than that arrogant and arrogant prince.

"I am better prepared now, Prince Magnus. I will make sure I defeat you. You will kneel before me and beg to stop my revenge," Prince Simone said proudly. The wind around has also increased.

"Looks like you'll be the one to kneel, Prince Simone. Your tongue is still sharp. Don't bite me or I might cut it off," I said coldly.

I put my left hand behind my back again. I harden my bones and pull out the nail. I now focus my strength more on my legs and arms. I will use my speed and strength to knock down this prince. A brave foreigner. His arrogance must be put to rest.

Prince Simone rushed in first but he joked about it so I looked too alert, weak and too anticipatory of his movements. The vampires watching even his father laughed. There my ear throbbed. It never stops boasting. I will not stop myself from pulverizing this man. No one could do that to me. He is not even a king and has not proven anything to be this arrogant.

I was the one who rushed and I also joked about the direction of my movement. I took the right first before quickly turning left. It was left in motion because I was faster than him. Prince Simone's air is useless. His ability is only design and perfume to his name.

I deeply scratched his back. cried out in pain. His blood splashed on the ground. I made a big wound on his back.

He screamed loudly because every move he made made my wound hurt more. It was deep and I was able to break his T12 thoracic vertebrae spinal cord bone. I also studied the body of a vampire as well as each creature to know their parts that could be weaknesses and strengths for me. And at that point, this poor and arrogant prince could no longer walk.

"Ahh! You're a cheater!" cried .

When it tried to step, it immediately fell to the ground. He managed to lie down to control the wind and try to fight me.

Something is gathering towards my direction. It was slow because his equipment was not at full strength due to the damage I had done. Now I will make sure that I will not forget this incident and it will be a shame in his life.

I easily avoided the big vortex because I was still fast. I immediately aimed at 's two raised hands. Still using my right hand with a sharp nail I cut it off.

With the tip of my fingernails I ran it twice over 's wrist. His two hands came off and he rolled on the ground. There his eyes widened and he screamed.

"Are you enjoying what's going on?" I asked . "Because I am, I am very pleased. You give me and the audience too much comfort. Watch carefully what I will do."

I moved quickly and stepped on 's left hand. He screamed and wanted to stand up to stop me but he couldn't. I crushed his left hand so that he could not put it back again.

"Stop the contest! I appoint Prince Magnus Lewis Walker as the champion! The new king of the Verdania Kingdom!" my father shouted loudly.

There the witches quickly ran to help . I didn't bother with it anymore because I got what I wanted. The appointed new king of the Verdania Kingdom.

I waved to the vampire spectators. I glanced at my father while smiling. His eyes were red and he was obviously very angry. There was nothing wrong with what I did. Isn't it durable? I just did the right thing. I'm not even done torturing . If he hadn't retaliated, I might have broken the poor prince's ribs.

"I invite everyone later for a celebration and coronation for the new king of the Verdania Kingdom! Give my eldest son a big round of applause for his victory! We all saw how Prince Magnus unleashed his strength and speed to defeat all his enemies! Long live the new king of the Verdania Kingdom!" my mother shouted loudly.

I thank my mother for showing me support. When I caught a glimpse of 's father, he almost choked me with anger. The stone table he was leaning on with his hand was already cracked. He felt bad for his son's defeat. It was appropriate because he was an arrogant and weak creature. He must find out who is taller and stronger than him.

I walked back to the castle and stared at it. I wanted to throw 's body in the castle to stain it with blood but I couldn't.

My father's new castle is beautiful. It was only a few years old and he was very careful not to break it. He knew that we, the brothers, would be the ones who would destroy it again.

Netheria architecture is the architectural basis for the construction of our castle. From mortals came that idea that my father imported. The relationship between vampires and humans is secret. That was only for exclusive friends of the royal family.

As soon as I entered the castle there was a burn in my direction. I immediately avoided you. When I looked where it came from it turned out to be from my father.

"Father, why do you seem to be angry with me? Didn't I just follow the rules of your contest?" I ask politely.

"What you did, humiliating Prince Dominique, was excessive! The king of their kingdom is also worried that his left hand might not be returned anymore!" Father shouted at me

"If I don't fight, father, it can't be called a contest. Besides, he'll do the same to me. I've shown my strength in front of a lot of people. Isn't that what you want? For me to be strong and follow in your footsteps as a king that you will not be ashamed of? Why do you seem angry now?" I asked sarcastically.

My father's eyes turned red. The emperor of the Primrose Imperia was very angry with me. It's a beautiful sight.

"Honey, Magnus has a point. You started this contest, our son just participated. Didn't he do the same thing to Thomas? There was no blood in that boy's fight. He drives every vampire he fights crazy ," my mother reassured my father.

My father sighed and disappeared in front of us. My mother smiled at me before quickly disappearing to follow my father.

I just shrugged as I walked to my room whistling. The coronation is later. I was able to grasp my first dream of becoming the king of the Verdania Kingdom. Little by little I was able to prove myself.

Magnus

I just woke up from my deep sleep earlier. I'm so good awake. Will I wake up later as the king of the Verdania Kingdom? My heart is clapping.

I stretched and went out to the veranda of my room. I didn't have a top on so I could hear the loud screams of the maids downstairs. I waved at them. They are irritating like stilts. Tsk, I'm just kidding them because I'm pretty awake. They should be proud that I made them bamboo. I always pay attention to princesses with good blood.

After I stretched and breathed fresh air, I entered my room again. I immediately went to the bathroom to shower again. I have showered three times today. It's so good to take a bath, it feels good. I smell even better and become more handsome.

After I showered, I immediately got dressed. I took a black tuxedo. I love these clothes. Formal and clean look. This dress came from a famous tailor from the mortal world. Only nobles can communicate with mortals. Inferior vampires usually have an uncontrollable thirst for blood. That's dangerous for mortals and the vampire council doesn't want to ruin our small and secret association with their race. Imported products from them are good. So I also want to see their world. One of my tests while undergoing the selection of the future emperor was orders to be made in the mortal world. That's guaranteed to be fun. I can glimpse the beautiful diamonds that exist in their world. Also beautiful women, but still beautiful princesses are the only ones I will drink blood from.

After getting dressed and looking good, I put on expensive shoes. When I was fully dressed, I just waited for the helpers to call me to come down. I'll bother myself first.

I looked at my cell phone. I don't have any app for communication other than my email. Nobles imported such tools using technology from humans. Our race also learned how to develop technology. People are smart and we learn a lot from them. Even though they lack power and ability they are amazing when it comes to innovation.

I played games that I downloaded from here on my cell phone. It is you who plant and harvest plants. He also grows his own farm. This game is like an agricultural sector. I have cows and goats as well as chickens that only lay eggs for an hour.

I was busy playing when someone knocked. I immediately saved my game before leaving my phone on the table. I went to the door and opened it.

"Prince Magnus, you are being sent down from the celebration. The empress is calling you," said the servant who was in front of me.

I just tried it. This allowed me to leave the room. He entered my room to maybe clean.

I used my speed to get down to the first floor of the castle. I immediately went to the room where the celebrations were held. When I entered the door, I was greeted by the sound of harmonicas and instruments with dark melodies. There were also other royal guests. Even outside the room there were normal vampires. Everyone is invited and can come.

"The new king of Verdania Kingdom is here! Magnus!" King Meir called me. The only king who doesn't care, he only goes to gatherings to eat shanghai. I have no problem with him, he is a good king. He also always helps the kingdoms in need.

"King Meir, I'm glad you came. Did you like the food served?" I asked him.

"Yes, The dishes are very delicious. Your kingdom is my favorite when it comes to soupy dishes. The blood that is shared will also be loved," said King Meir and winked at me.

I walked towards the long table where my family was sitting. I strained my ears to hear whispers.

"I feel that the participants were cheated or that the prince was deliberately weak so that he could win. He has no ability. He is definitely still weak. Maybe the prince who fought in the last stage of the tournament was actually weaker than him. I am not . Believe that he won."

"True, I agree. Emperor Darius's son is famous for his lack of ability. It is a shame for their family. All the emperor's children have unique and unique abilities. He is the firstborn and the next king who does not have it. No, I can believe it. Emperor Darius should still not agree. If it were up to me, I would definitely object!"

"You're right. That's guaranteed to be no match for my son who is now the king of our kingdom. I'm sure the prince of the Verdania Kingdom still lacks blood to drink."

They even laughed after talking. My fist clenched. Even though I harden my heart I want to crush their faces. Even if the queens are talking, I don't care. Their tongues are very slippery. All they know is gossip.

I sat next to my father who was still staring at me with a different intensity. I don't care, the only thing that matters to me is that I will be the king later after the coronation.

"Magnus, I'm glad you won. I didn't think it took you so long to prepare," my father whispered. I almost laughed.

"Father, is that you? I didn't really think you knew how to give praise. I thought you could only give me a compliment," I scolded her.

"Get well Magnus, don't try me now. I might take the crown back from you," said my father.

"In the first place, I wouldn't allow you to do that, father. You're hoping for something impossible," I replied coldly.

We didn't look at each other so it wouldn't be obvious that we were talking. With vampires it is easy to hear conversations. Our hearing is sharp. The eyes of the nobles are even clearer so you can see who is talking.

I ate and let myself rejoice for my victory. I thought that everyone would look at me differently after I won and tortured , but they didn't. There are still royals who look down on me. I don't care but they make my blood boil.

It is not my obligation to spread to everyone that I am strong. As long as I did what I had to do, I'm happy there. Creatures are naturally curious. That is one of those characteristics that cannot be changed. It's also good to make a story. You thought they were the ones who truly saw it, as if they knew more about your life than you did yourself. It's like their words are embroidered and stitched.

"Magnus, I didn't mention it to you. When you become king you need to have a queen. You also need a wife," my father whispered.

"That's not in the law, father. Marriage is not in my plans even if I have a bride. The main thing I have to grab is your title now. I will be the next emperor of the Primrose Imperia," I also whispered.

My father laughed and shook his head. I was about to reply if he had a problem with what I said but he immediately spoke.

"Then, prove that you are worthy. Prove that you will be a good king. The moment I see your transformation I will drive you to the place where the registration will be held. So that I can be quiet in your presence," said my father.

"It's like I want to be with you too, father. I'm sick of your face and your shrill shouting. You even beat mother," I teased him.

Before he could speak, I stood up from my position with a smile and kissed my mother. It's the same with Lilith who stares at me coldly. It seems to be floating around again.

"Aren't you going to greet me, brother?" I asked Lilith.

"I know you'll do whatever you want. You won't stop until you get what you want. Just don't make me feel silly," she said without looking at me.

I shrugged my shoulders. It seems that what he said is far away.

Pearl is gone. It seems that she is locked in her room because when I sharpen my hearing I hear banging from the eighth floor. I'm sure it's still very thirsty for blood. My brother's bloodlust cannot be controlled at all.

Thomas is still busy with his PSP. I didn't pay attention to it. I immediately turned around to inhale the fragrant blood. In which kingdom can I taste blood now?

I was just walking around when a princess came along with me. She has red hair and a pair of black eyes. Its blood is not sweet for me but it's okay.

"I know you want to taste the blood of princesses. I'll let you taste mine as long as you let me taste yours too. I'm Princess Maya of the Maslin Kingdom. Our kingdom is known for making weapons," she introduced to mine

This girl is beautiful, looks like an actress in the mortal world. Her body is also beautiful and her chest is rich. But I don't care about that, it's just nice to watch. I never tasted blood from the ugly princess. There is nothing ugly in the world of vampires, witches, and werewolves. Almost everyone is perfect.

"Have you chosen a place yet?" I asked her.

"There are too many people, Prince Magnus. WE can go to the empty room," she said and laughed softly.

We went to a corner before I grabbed her by the waist. In an instant we were in an empty room on the second floor.

"Taste my blood as much as you want. After you, I will," this princess whose name I don't remember said seductively.

Her neck was exposed but he drank blood from my wrist. His blood is also sweet, not bad. Its flow is light in my throat. The taste was enough to make my eyes red. Maslin Kingdom looks like it's now off the list. I don't drink twice from a princess. Even though it's a little sweet, I get bored quickly.

After I drank, I quickly wiped my lips. I heard the announcement downstairs calling my name.

I was about to go there quickly when this princess stopped me. I pushed it weakly.

"I tricked you, princess of the Maslin Kingdom. I have never made anyone taste my blood. Farewell," I said with a smirk.

"You are so bad!" she shouted but I didn't look back at him.

I quickly disappeared in front of him and in an instant I was on the stage. My brother Thomas even pointed to the remaining blood on the side of my lip. My father shook his head.

"You really won't change. I want to cut you with a fang," he whispered.

"That's what you'll never succeed, father. It's like you killed me," I whispered with a smile.

From his head he took the crown and transferred it to me. With the historical sword from our ancestor, my father blessed me. I knelt in front of him. I just did something like this and I'm sure he's happy. It seems that even though I almost messed up again today, he is really happy that his life will be quiet. It wants to immediately expel me from the Verdania Kingdom. It's also good news for me that he will send me and let me register to compete as the next emperor of the Primrose Imperia.

After my blessing I stood up. The royal vampires inside applauded. I also heard the screams of the normal vampires outside.

"Long live King Magnus! Wealth for the Verdania Kingdom!" shouted the citizens outside.

"Wealth for the Verdania Kingdom!" my father shouted loudly.

We were photographed to put in the newspaper. Television is not very fashionable with us because most vampires say it hurts the eyes. Our eyes are so clear. It is also more sensitive to light. There is no morning in our world but twenty-four hours still run.

When I got off the stage I sat in the center of our long table. I saw the evil look 's father gave me. I noticed that his son was not here, it looks like the poor prince is still recovering.
