Holy Akashic Conqueror 127 Seira

"Hi Seira, it has been a long time."

Said Lucien as he came to her and hugged her close, to which he received one sharp slap on his face and angry glare from her. Of course, he knew why did he get slapped and why she was angry at him. He didn't see her several years and even found another girl for himself, and both of them were aware of feeling to each other, it was just that n.o.body said anything as it could become weird. They knew each other from childhood and often played together when they were little.

"I am sorry, that I didn't see you during these several years, but I will do everything I can to make it up to you."

She didn't say anything, but Lucien could her a few silent sobs as she cuddled to his chest silently, not letting go at any cost. About making it up, there would be a lots of time during the journey to the G.o.d-Devil Plane as that would take around ten years and Lucien would spend them all with Seira as Itori would be undergoing Sacred Devourification Process, turning her to the Sacred Devourer Ghoul and that would take a lot of time, several years at best.

"You know Seira, even though neither one of us ever said something, you know it very good that I always had feelings for you..."

Whispered Lucien in a low voice to which, Seira tightened the grip she had over him and nodded her head, with a small tear of happiness appearing in the corners of her eyes.

Then they left to the more suitable place to discuss various topics, especially Lucien about how she was doing all these years and basically Seira was asking him the same. She was very curious about her another rival, and Lucien briefly talked about Itori. One must admit that Seira and Itori were total opposites.

Seira was a silent person, who preferred silence and peace, rarely talked and was always elegant and just as a n.o.ble lady would be. On the contrary, Itori was talkative, very cheerful and she enjoyed either teasing people or pranking them. They would be a very interesting combination when they met.

"So, where is that noisy fool now? Under normal circ.u.mstances, he would be already here together with some genial ideas to create something, in which most cases that something would end either exploding or trying to kill him."

Seira laughed a bit with her hand covering her mouth as an ideal lady would do. Lucien was, of course, referring to her elder brother Dante. She knew that sentence, trying to kill us, was referring to one special case when Dante was experimenting with old summoning magic that he found in the library and "borrowed". In the end, they summoned unknown creature, that attacked the moment when it saw it was summoned somewhere. Fortunately, summoning circle malfunctioned several second after and both of them were only injured, not death.

"Brother is in the seclusion cultivating to the higher level to reach the Viscount-Rank using a modified version of your race's RC Body Refining Technique. He either is trying to reach the rank or has already reached it and he is stabilizing his cultivation base. After that, he would be probably doing some experiments with blood magic as his cultivation would allow him to research more things now and some experiments that father forbade him because his strength was insufficient would be now allowed."

Explained Seira to Lucien. She asked many things about the multiverse out there, because she knew that Lucien was in the direct contact with Akashic Records, this information was available only to the Lucien's Family, Dracul Family and some of the Holy Imperial Knights were aware of it. Now it was still something like a minor secret, but when they would be leaving, this secret would be already non-existent because Lucien would be using some of his privileges as the Executor of Akashic Records to open the s.p.a.ce-Time Vortex.

"Soo... what do you think about our upcoming marriage, Seira?"

Seira blushed a little, but then she recovered to her normal, almost expressionless face as she looked seriously at Lucien.

"That we are lucky because we have a feeling for each other. I am very well aware that this marriage is something that is necessary for the functioning of the Holy Niflheim Empire because it would be the union of our families and the creation of something higher. As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water."

Lucien nodded his head in agreement, as this marriage between them would consolidate the power in the Holy Niflheim Empire completely. Now there would be more important bonding between both families than alliance, and that would be bong by blood.

"Yes, I agree. Oh, and how many of your people would be joining the military? Their abilities in blood control and blood magic would be very useful in the combat against a huge number of enemies."

Asked Lucien in a serious voice to which Seira lowered her head slightly as she new not even half of her people would join the army as most would just remain locked in towers, now it would be not towers but rather Magitek Airships.

"Around 40% of the population would join. Most of them still prefer remaining in the research field or experimenting. You know, especially when we would arrive at the G.o.d-Devil Plane this would only grow as there would be countless things to experiment with and countless things to research. Most of the people joining are younger ones, that have no patience to spend most of their time locked in their towers."
