In a world illuminated by two moons, underneath a grand and magnificent black castle known widely as the Crazed Witches Castle, a futuristic room existed.
Sleek metallic walls ingrained with powerful Runic Symbols blocked any intruder who dared to view inside.
Not even someone as powerful as Dao Immortal Lucian had known such a place existed underneath the castle.
In the middle of the room, a silver-haired, silver-eyed, beautiful woman dressed in a black Gothic dress hugging a teddy bear sat on a regal throne. Her beautiful eyes filled with crazed obsession were plastered on the ultra-wide hologram that showcased the figure of a white-haired young man peacefully sleeping.
"Darling~!"
"Darling~!"
"Darling~!"
*Sniff*
"Haah, Darling smells so good!" Luna exclaimed happily and reached her dainty fingers toward her beloved, but her fingers passed straight through.
Grinding her teeth, Luna let out a frustrated growl and clenched her outstretched hand.
While Luna was frustrated, a sudden emotionless, robotic voice sounded in her head, [Mistress, I have accomplished the task.]
Hearing the voice, Luna nodded, smilingly, [Good work! Remember, don't allow a single wench near my Darling!]
[As the Mistress commands.] The emotionless, robotic voice replied before falling silent.
While hugging her teddy bear tightly to her chest, Luna continued looking at her sleeping Darling.
Suddenly, Luna's thoughts drifted as she remembered the lifeless body of the perverted maid and the long-eared seductress who had vanished. Even now, Luna could not locate them, but she had a guess.
It was a guess that infuriated her. Her plan, which she had been tirelessly working on for thousands of years, had to be pushed forward.
If only…
If only she had been given a few more years; she would be living peacefully with her Darling in another universe.
Luna's beautiful silver eyes and silver hair changed to blood red. "I will never allow a bunch of wenches near my Darling! Only I can be close to you! Only I am YOURS! And YOU are MINE! Your body and Soul belong to me and me only! As for that long-eared seductress and perverted maid who are trying to steal my Darling, I will deal with them in due time!'
—-----------------
On Arcadia's, Aetheria continent, north of Thunderfall City, a gigantic city that stretched for five thousand square miles could be seen. Tall, magically fortified walls with towers and twenty-four-seven sentries lined below and above the walls.
The city was named Harmony City because a thousand years ago, a portal unexpectedly opened, and creatures, who called themselves Abyssal Demons came out. They wreaked havoc and destruction upon the town which once stood there, Gray Stone.
Only through sheer determination and the combined efforts of the neighboring cities' mages the Abyssal Demons were killed, and the portal was sealed.
Thus, the name Harmony City.
—--------------
In the heart of Harmony City, in front of a grand white marble mansion.
A shadowy figure materialized, using the darkness of the night. The shadowy figure's features were further hidden by a black robe and white mask. Only the person's black eyes could be seen.
From his appearance and sneaky behavior, it was obvious that he was an assassin.
With practiced ease, the assassin calmly walked around the mansion's wall while avoiding the patrolling guards.
After arriving underneath a blindspot created by an overhanging tree, the assassin knocked against the mansion's wall three times. The first knock was hard and deep, yet still quiet enough that the guards would not hear. The second knock was after five seconds, and the third knock was immediately after the second knock.
Suddenly, the ground underneath his feet vanished, causing his body to plummet.
However, he did not panic. His expression behind the mask was indifferent. After a minute of freefall, his body landed in a pool of water. Quickly, he jumped out of the water and walked down the dimly lit tunnel. Because of the Magical Enchantments on his robe, it remained dry and clean as before.
Soon, he arrived in front of a door and lightly knocked
"You can enter." A powerful middle-aged man's voice came from behind the door and only then did the assassin open the door and enter.
As soon as the assassin opened the door, he regretted it. A thick scent of cigarettes wafted into his nose despite wearing a mask.
After grimacing, the assassin hastily bowed low.
At the center of the room behind the wooden desk, a burly middle-aged man sat and calmly gazed at the assassin
The burly middle-aged man had a head full of black hair tied into a ponytail and eyes of the same color.
He was dressed in a black robe, but unlike the assassin, his was a magical robe.
"Is that useless son of mine dead?" The middle-aged man, Wang Ming, asked without a shred of guilt. The sooner the stain on his family died, the better.
The assassin's lips curled into a sinister smile after hearing his master's words.
"Yes, Master. The task has been finished according to your wishes. Wang Chen's rotting body lays within Moon Grove Forest as we speak."
The assassin's spatial ring glowed, and a bull-encrusted ring appeared on his hand.
"This is Wang Chen's spatial ring, Master." The assassin respectfully placed the spatial ring in Wang Ming's hands.
After a few seconds of examining the spatial ring, Wang Ming nodded in contentment. It was merely a regular spatial ring with a bull encrusted in the middle.
Wang Ming would rather give an actual Wang Family spatial ring to a dog than to the waste of his family.
"You have done well. Here is your reward." Wang Ming lifted his finger and pointed at the bowing assassin with a cruel sneer. Purple lightning flashed at the tip of his finger before flying and penetrating straight through the assassin's forehead.
Momentarily, the assassin's body convulsed before he fell lifelessly to the ground. A trickle of blood ran from the wound, swiftly pooling underneath his lifeless body.
—----------------
*Beep Beep Beep*
"Ugh, what the fuck is that sound?" Lucian groaned - his voice was husky, as he buried his face further into the warm pillow to muffle the sound.
[Host, it is time to wake up. Please go freshen up to begin your day.]
Lucian once again groaned in annoyance. Regrettably, the System's voice could not be muffled. He did not want to get out of bed. The softness of the bed underneath his body and the pillow below his head felt wonderful. The temperature of his room was perfect, not too cold nor too warm, just the way he liked it. He could not even remember when he had gone to sleep yesterday.
As soon as he left the shower and got into bed, he drifted into slumber.
If there were any similarities between the three Lucians, that would be that they loved to take showers, baths, and sleep.
Even though Dao Immortal Lucian and Ancestral God Lucian had both shed their Mortality and no longer needed sustenance to live and no longer produced bodily wastes or needed rest, they regularly partook in such practices.
Nothing beats hot water gliding down your body and the comfort of your bed.
Hesitantly, Lucian's eyelids began to flutter open. His eyes were still hazy, and there were even boogers at the edges of his eyes.
He was tired and wanted to sleep longer… but.
*Beep Beep Beep*
"I'll wake up. Just give me a second!" Lucian shouted as he propped himself into a sitting position. Miraculously, just as he sat up, the alarm clock on the table next to his bed did not beep again.
With a sigh, Lucian turned his head to the left and squinted his eyes. When he saw the almost blinding red light of the alarm clock, he felt a vein bulge across his forehead.
—---------------
5:00 am
—---------------
5:00 am…
It was only five in the morning…
Lucian could not remember the last time he woke up at five in the morning.
Nevertheless, Lucian got out of his bed, rubbed his tired eyes, yawned, and stretched his arms above his head.
After ten toe touches, Lucian began neatly arranging his bedsheet, pillow, and blanket, and then walked into the bathroom.
'Haah. How great would it be if I had a live-in maid? Then, I wouldn't have to do menial work. My beautiful dream…'
While grumbling, Lucian brushed his teeth and then took a shower.
After donning his chef's uniform, an arrogant smile graced Lucian's lips.
'Damn. I'm handsome!'
In the mirror, his original appearance stared back at himself. It was not the disguise he was using, but the real Lucian.
'To think cold eyes, an indifferent face, and an air of nobility could be so attractive.'
He was perfect down to the smallest detail.
'Thankfully, Ancestral God Lucian and Dao Immortal Lucian had unrivaled strength, and Chef Lucian had bodyguards to protect him. Otherwise, my precious virginity would have been stolen. HAHA~!"
Soon, he felt refreshed, and the indifference on his face returned.
