"Miss, why didn't you pick up your phone for hours?" her driver/ bodyguard asked Natasha in a concerned tone.
"Oh nothing, I was just playing Reverie in my other account" Natasha answered without a change in expression.
"Oh ok" the driver didn't say much and continued to drive. Honestly, he was not very worried about Natasha since she was strong enough to handle all her troubles.
He was only appointed as her bodyguard due to the pestering of her father.
Natasha closed her eyes and rested in relief and excitement. Today has been such a bizarre day. Meeting a real vampire, how many times has she dreamed of that.
Only finally that dream became a reality. She clenched her fists in excitement and tried very hard to hide her excitement.
Naturally, when she thought of Raizen, her mind automatically wandered to the situation of her kidnapping.
'The guild has really gotten more daring nowadays. Both in Reverie and the real world. But the guild is just a tool, they wouldn't move without profits' Natasha went into deep thought.
She was correct. Even though the guild was a mighty existence that survived from the old century, it didn't move normally.
The guild was as neutral as it could get. Anyone could use the power of the guild as long the right price was paid.
'Who would want to assassinate me? Haha, who am I kidding, I can think of countless people who were my enemies and my fathers who wanted to kill me.
Well, if you use the guild to assassinate I could naturally do the same to you' Natasha thought as she unconsciously leaked her bloodlust.
The driver, who was an experienced veteran, sensed the change in atmosphere and looked at Natasha weirdly.
'The young miss is changing too much nowadays. Is Reverie doing her a good thing or bad thing?' he thought in worry. He could not voice his thoughts out since he was only a servant.
…
In an old shabby room, an individual was sprawled on the bed without a worry in the world.
The room was a mess with clothes everywhere. Empty cups of instant noodles everywhere.
Only one room in the whole house was clean. It housed a large white VR capsule.
"g..reat immortal" the blonde-haired guy sprawled on the bed mumbled, lost in his dreams.
"don't w..orry, I will assassinate him..you guys escape"
…
The morning weather was a bit mild and numerous workers were moving in the busy streets, all of them hurrying to their jobs.
Even if virtual reality was developed to such an extent, the human mind was still required in many fields.
The huge screen in the square was playing the morning news.
"Yesterday the citizens of Zone 7 heard a huge howl that seemed to tear the earth and shook the sky. The cause of this huge disturbance is still not found.
But residents of Zone 7, don't panic. The issue is nothing major. Maybe someone played a howl in mega loudspeakers and projected them?" the female reporter asked.
"Well, that's certainly an interesting theory, Louis. Now onto the special session on Reverie.
We have recently received news that the Dream Corporation is planning to hold a worldwide eSports event. It's just a rumor and further confirmation is needed" the male reporter announced.
Even though it was just a rumor, people were very excited at just the thought of the worldwide event. Many people started to play more vigorously hoping to participate in the event.
…
Natasha got out of her hovercar at the entrance of the VR cafe.
It seems Raizen was still not here. So, she opened her social media and started to respond to some fan messages.
"Crimson Countess can you spank my as* and punish me"
"Goddess, can you step on me"
"Natasha can please be your little sister. Please onee-san, I will be a good girl"
She had all sorts of weird messages from all sorts of weirdos. Usually, her manager handles all these inappropriate messages. Since she didn't have anything to do, she personally deleted them.
She even replied to some saying that they should seek proper medical care.
Just as she was about to delete another message, she heard a motorbike sound. Curious she lifted her head and saw the owner of the bike, that dreaded face.
"Hi?" Chris waved his hand nervously after seeing Natasha already waiting. Did he have to stay alone with his woman?
"Why are you here?" Natasha snapped immediately upon seeing his face. Seriously, why was he here? Even he didn't know.
His amazement for Raizen and his curiosity had overcome his rationale. Another reason is he needed protection from the guild.
The guild tried to contact him many times yesterday. It was only a matter of time since they found something had happened and sent people to look for him.
As Chris was struggling to answer they saw a person with silver hair walking toward them. He was currently holding a coffee in his hands while walking toward them.
Seriously, where did he get the money to pay for the coffee? Natasha momentarily forgot about Chris after seeing Raizen.
"How was your night Raizen?" she asked. She still found it hard to calmly talk to Raizen. It was due to his beauty and identity.
"Hmm, it was good," Raizen answered as he sipped the coffee.
"Do you guys want it?" Raizen asked while pointing to his coffee.
"Yes"
"No"
"...."
"Anyway, what do you want to do today? I suggest we register and get you a valid ID" Natasha said.
"I was thinking of the same thing. Come with me to a less crowded place" Raizen said as he started to move.
Confused, Chris and Natasha followed him. Soon they reached a remote street. Before they could ask anything they saw a scene that made their eyes pop.
"W..what the hell?" Chris exclaimed in a trembling voice.
From Raizen's shadow emerged a mountain of gold. Some were pure bars of gold while others were jewelry. There were necklaces, rings, and even a crown.
