Chapter 5 - The greedy king

Inside a vast corridor, people coming in and out from offices, which made the corridor crowded like a hive, but these people have one point in common, that is to bow and make a way to a certain woman.

This woman was born to bring the sunshine to this corridor and the people here, with long blond hair, pale face, a rosebud-shaped red lips, her beautiful red eyes surely bring submission to some sorry souls. Her white robe failed to hide her big breasts and butt.

She walked to the office at the end of the corridor and knocked one time then entered without waiting for responses, at the end of the well-decorated office a big desk with a throne-like chair, a woman was sitting on the chair looking at some files, she did not look at who opened the door.

"Your majesty" the blond woman bowed a little with a smile on her face.

"sigh, Lidia, we are at the company and my status as queen is void the moment I am here, therefore call me chairman or use my name it not like you never did, so why are you teasing me like this?"

"Fufufu, teasing you will always be my amusement. Theia, but even as a chairman, the people must show their respect to a senior" indeed she and Theia know each other since young and they are like sisters.

Lidia is a Lord vampire, two hundred years ago fate brought them together to fight a formidable enemy, Theia was famous at that time as Queen and a cultivator. Out of boredom, Lidia started working for her. As director for her company and head maid inside the castle.

"So, did you investigate the Elixir?" Amon presented her a small battle of Elixer as a gift and after that, she asked if she has the right to do with it as she wants and of course, he agreed. so, the moment Theia returned she asked Lidia to do full research on it.

"Of course its done," she gave her paper with a detailed report.

"So it's hard to copy the Elixir?" she knows that is impossible, but she wants to hear if there is hope.

"Please you are old enough to know this elixir is a treasure, we can't even recognize half the ingredients let alone know how it gained its magical essence as "elixir", one thing I am sure about, the one who made it is a Monster!, so little Theia, won't you tell your big sister who gave you this amazing thing," as always she will not miss the chance to act like a naughty big sister even in the middle of a serious topic.

"Sorry, I gave my word to not talk about it" maybe Lidia is the only one that can make this arrogant woman act humble and somehow at peace of mind, she promised Amon to not tell people about him, but recalling him brings her many emotions, he didn't talk too much and only smiles as a reply sometimes, even inviting her to his house and chatting with her while letting his eyes roam her body, god knows how she did not kill him for his filthy act.

"Even thinking about other men is cheating the king, a crime punishable by death even for a Queen, so stop your dreaming and look at these papers"

"Don't talk about that bastard" thinking about her husband make her angry.

she begins reading the report and signs of anger start to show, "are they crazy? It's tolerable if they want to earn more from their formation, but what they are asking is a Madness. reject them! " Theia Company specialized in the manufacture of carriages, be it normal carriages or luxurious carriages, their brand reached every family and clan in the world and made her the richest known woman.

But her company import most of the parts from external sources with long severe contracts so that the partner will not have any ambitions other than acting as a "partner", and the most precious part is "the space Tao formation", made by the Ling family, one of the great families, the pride of the phoenix kingdom.

Phoenix company which is the company founded by Theia discovered a way to edit the space formation and made it float formation but that after a lot of research, they created an "anti-gravity" formation using the geometry of spacetime, changing the Time Tao by simple spells of the wind and fire and adding them to the space Tao formation. It was a miracle for the world and a curse to the four families.

And now the ling family asking double of the price that was 50.000 crystals for a formation, or shares in the company.

"They will breach the contract and there would be no turning back if you refuse them" Lidia is clear that the Lings has big agendas behind these unreasonable demands.

"Let it be, I'll find a way to solve it, at present try take precautions for any problems that will accrue at the result of this, I am sure the bastard behind them, he knows he can't touch me so he is using this way to destroy me and the temple will not middle in things like this unless I am in danger," her husband, the king is at the level five Emperor magic warrior, with Overlord bloodline. He is one step to the sovereign realm.

Even so, he has three things in his life, the first is his lust, he did not let the young girls have any peace of mind with his decree that descends on their heads to welcome them to his castle as maids every time, and for what? For them to get raped then sign a contract with him, to turn all their blood to blood essence until their last drop. And it's clear that he has some fetish for assaulting girls.

The second thing is his greed. He envies the wealth under the Queen and her family, but he can't do anything and with time this envy turned to a grudge, what's more for some reasons he can't take the queen purity until she reaches her third evolution or else he will be against the temple which made him held his grudge harder. And now it looks like he is whispering his mind to the ling family.

The third one is the thirst for power, the king is one of the strongest people in the kingdom, he is from the phoenix race, all the royal family members are the same and their blood can't go to a none evolver, so they must marry from the clan, but with special conditions under the supervision of the temple, the same for the king so his actions are restricted somehow, especially when it has something to do with the phoenix females, that made the king in need for "maides" every time, then the said maids will die unknown death, the temple doesn't care as long its not a phoenix female, so they will close an eye. As for the king, he kept consuming the blood essence of his victims to evolve.
