After they'd all eaten, the atmosphere grew a bit cold with no one making any movements. Everyone stared at each other silently with numerous thoughts going wild in their heads as they looked at one another. Celicia picked up a napkin, and delicately wiped her mouth as she glared at the silent Arthur. She seemed as if she was going to strangle him if he didn't say a word in a given time frame — two seconds! "So mother, I'm taking the girls out for a date. Isn't it a good idea? We'll be back in the evening, and would not do anything strange." Arthur cleared his throat, then picked up his glass of water to drink. "Don't forget to use protection, and please avoid any overly crowded places…" Arthur choked on the water, and began to cough and wheeze as he teared up with his face beet red. After a while, he cleared his throat and wiped his lips calmly with his eyes gleaming in a demonic light. "Of course! We wouldn't forget something important at a time like that, would we?" Lilith, i
"This world you're residing in is known as the Mortal Hub; Various beings gather here as it is the central base leading to multiple realms and civilizations. In this world, there are entities acting as enforcers of law and order all over the realms. The primary enforcers of law, order and justice are the Heroes, the secondary enforcers are the Gods; and the tertiary enforcers are the Immortal Sovereigns." Lilith had risen from the desk and was sitting suspended in the middle of the air with her legs crossed. She tilted her head over and rested it on her palm, with her elbow on her legs. She had a a smile on her face as she explained in detail some common knowledge to Arthur. Her eyes gleaming in a soft light. Where is our noble main character, Arthur? Arthur sat on the bed with his legs crossed and knees spread apart. He was fiddling with the Neo-VR watch he had bought from a friend some time earlier, and he seemed as if he wasn't paying attention to Lilith 's words. Feeli
"Yawn…" School was still boring. Arthur who sat down in his seat was wondering how many times he'd yawned today. He was really wishing for something unexpected to happen now to save him from this boring plight called "schooling". It was already another new day after Arthur met Lilith, and the day fell on a regularly cold September Tuesday. The signs of the approaching winter was growing more prominent. He had just arrived in school, and was taking his second lesson for today- mathematics… Their maths teacher, a hot female on casual wear droned on and on with a friendly smile on her face. Her eyes gleamed anytime she solved a complicated question before the class. Most of the male and female students had already began to doze off with their heads rested on their desks. Only some students were still eagerly listening to the long speech with earnest expressions on their faces. Arthur on the other hand just leaned back casually on his chair with both of his hands u
After everyone submitted their final answers in their notebooks - a futuristic device that has two screens, and can open and close like a normal book - the maths teacher left the class and the next teacher walked in. The teacher who was a male about 5.7 feet tall, cleared his throat before beginning the class on English with a stern expression on his face. He would smile anytime he got to a question and frown when he sees a student looking for trouble. Time passed in a blink, and a bored Arthur waited silently class after class whilst giving Lilith besides him strange glances with question marks all over his face. When the electronic bell for lunchtime was ring, the current teacher wrapped things up before bowing to the class and leaving. She was their Chemistry teacher, a tall and slender blonde. As soon as the teacher left, the excited students jumped off their seats and ran out of the classroom in a hurry. Each of them had heard to bell for recess, and most of them didn't want
After school, Arthur got into his jet black limo with Lilith who sat quietly besides him in the back. After giving his order to the middle aged man sitting in the driver's seat at the front, he gave Lilith a glance and waited silently as his chauffeur began the slow drive back to his mansion. He didn't bring his bodyguards today, as he wanted them to rest for a while. He understood humans weren't machines, and that his guards needed to relax for a while. Besides, wouldn't their efficiency be reduced due to stress and fatigue? He already knew he couldn't die, thanks to someone who he'll teach a lesson when he's stronger, he knew that and didn't doubt it. Lilith who was still linked with him could also act as his protector— for now at least. "Sigh…" He picked up his phone and dialed a number swiftly with his head tilted forward before raising his phone to his ear, and closing his eyes. Listening to the ringing tune, an upbeat hip hop musical, blaring unrestrained from the phone's
Lilith felt as if a bowl of cold water had been poured on her head, dousing the nefarious flames of primal lust rising in her heart. Her shoulders loosened as she went weak completely… Jack who saw this giggled in his heart, but didn't say anything rash. After a few seconds, their pose went from intimate to awkward, and Jack couldn't help but clear his throat strategically. "Lilith, you still haven't told me what happened after you stabbed me… What are you hiding?" Jack asked as he coiled his arms around Lilith's slender waist and tightened his grip around her, afraid she would instantly pull away to avoid his question. After Jack's question, Lilith fell into deep silence and contemplation. The silence made Jack feel even more awkward that usual, and he couldn't help but gulp down his saliva. "That…" Lilith suddenly tried to struggle without using too much force to prevent herself from accidentally killing Jack, but found his grip was tightened around her body. She squirmed vi
Arthur bounced into his mansion with his guards and Lilith tailing him closely. He greeted some maids with smiles as he walked forward, then, up the stairs and finally arrived at the first floor. "How many floors does this mansion have?" Lilith asked out of curiosity as she obediently followed Arthur as she knew nothing about the house. She was too lazy to investigate. "About fifteen floors on the surface and five more floors underground. The mansion has over a hundred rooms, excluding those underground." Arthur spoke cooly was he walked up to the elevator on the second floor and stepped inside. Lilith and only a few guards followed. The others took the second elevator out of the four available. "Why didn't you just use the elevator downstairs?" Lilith asked in confusion, she face tilted slightly to the side. She simply couldn't understand Arthur's thought process. He acts unpredictably at times. "Because I wouldn't be able to see all those beautiful maids- ouch!" Arthur spoke
It's been a few hours and the evening dinner had just begun. Sitting besides Arthur was a middle aged man who looked like a older and more mature version of Arthur. He had silky silver hair and bright black eyes, alongside his chiselled and angular face. He was Arthur's father, Brian Thompson. He was wearing a silver suit that complements the colour of his hair, and his eyes were lowered, covering the calculative glint flashing in his eyes under his long lashes. "Arthur how was school today?" Hearing the familiar voice, Arthur lifted his head and looked over his father. A middle aged woman sat there with her head tilted over and rested on her palm, and her eyes looking straight at Felix. She was a very beautiful woman, who had long silky hair, smooth jade skin, and a curvaceous figure. Her face was round and delicate, with her pinkish lips, slender brows, straight nose, and a pair of calculative eyes. "School was fine mother, nothing unexpected happened today." Arthur smiled
