Chapter 346 Return

A while ago, when Virgil was explaining things to Rudy in the Lord’s chamber.

Jane was hovering above the palace and glancing around with an anxious look on her face.

Rias approached her and asked, “What happened? You suddenly dashed out of the hall room without telling me anything.”

“Yeah… sorry…” Jane turned to Rias and said, “I just had this sudden sensation that something bad was going to happen. Like something was approaching the palace from the sea coast, but I just checked, and it’s all clear.”

“Oh, so that’s why you came here,” Rias muttered. “I thought you went after Rudy.”

“Hmm? What did you say?”

“I said I didn’t sense anything.”

“Maybe it was just my imagination. I don’t know.”

“Shall we go back then?” Rias asked. “If Rudy returned, he would think I ditched him.”

“Uhm… Rias…” Jane called out to Rias with an apologetic look on her face. “I need to… tell you about something important…”

Rias knew what Jane wanted to talk about, but she didn’t want to listen to her confession like that. She had planned revenge for Jane, and if she ended up admitting her sins, her plan would fail.

“Not now. We can talk after the party has ended.”

“But I don’t want you to—!”

Jane stopped on her words when she heard the sound of the drums. It was the moment when Rudy had sat on the Lord’s throne.

“What is this sound?!” Jane shouted as she thought Rias wouldn’t hear her unless she yelled.

“What sound?” Rias with a confused and curious look on her face. “And why are you yelling so suddenly?”

“The drum. It’s so loud! It’s rupturing my ear!” Jane covered her ears with her hands and landed on top of the palace, thinking the noise would become less loud.

Rias followed her and asked with a concerned look on her face: “Are you okay?”

“This sound! How are you not feeling anything?!”

“I.. am not hearing anything. I can hear the distant sound of the song playing in the hall, but not the drums.”

“It’s so loud, and it keeps getting loud! It’s like it’s banging inside my head!”

Rias didn’t know what to do, so she hugged Jane and patted on her back.

“…”

“I am fine now…” Jane said in a muffled voice.

“Has the sound stopped?”

“Yes.”

“We vampires have always been sensitive to loud sounds, and that’s why our music is also always calm and soothing.”

Jane smiled distantly and said, “I remember you used to hate the chiming sound when you were kids and always skipped the dance practice.”

“Yeah. Those were good days. Now we no longer get a chance to sit or talk like we used to.”

“…”

“Well, let’s go now.” Rias grabbed Jane’s hand and said, “The party hasn’t ended yet. We will talk to Queen Nyxia about what just happened.”

When Rudy sat on the throne and the drum began to bang, Nyxia was sleeping nicely on her bed. But her eyes suddenly opened and stared at nothingness.

A slight smile appeared on Nyxia’s face that stretched wide from one end to another.

“Darling is back~”

A few minutes later, Virgil and Rudy passed through the door, which was the only exit out of there. Virgil was transported into the palace where he belonged, but Rudy, however, was transported to his room in the human world where he belonged.

“….”

At first, Rudy acted normal for a few seconds because his brain took a while to comprehend what had just happened.

“What…?” he glanced around with a dumbfounded look on his face and asked, “Angelica, is this a dream?”

Angelica came out of Rudy’s body and fell to the ground.

“Hey…” Rudy helped her get up and asked, “Are you okay?”

“Yeah. I came out of your body after a long time, so my body took a while to manifest itself.”

“So we are truly in the human world?” he asked with a devastated look on his face.

“Seems like it.”

“That damned door!” Rudy yelled at the top of his lungs.

He took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

“Calm down, Rudy. Everything is alright. Let’s try teleporting there.”

Rudy closed his eyes and hoped to teleport to the vampire world, but when he opened his eyes, he was still standing in his room.

SIGH!

“I should have expected that it wouldn’t work. I got my hopes high for nothing. Maybe Alice also never received the letter,” he muttered to himself.

Angelica gulped down anxiously and asked with a concerned look on her face: “Are you okay?”

“I don’t know. I should be happy that I am back in the human world earlier than I thought and that I wouldn’t have to spend the rest of the days there. But the timing was awful.

Rias woke up, and I barely had a chance to spend time with her. I had so many things I wanted to talk to her about. I wanted to spend our wedding night. I wanted Jane and Rias to patch up and accept each other in my harem.

I wanted to ask Nyxia hundreds of questions. I wanted to unravel more mysteries about my powers and their connection with me. But now… everything is ruined…”

He said with a dejected look on his face.

“Don’t say that. In the brighter light, you should be happy since you are back here. Didn’t you say you had many plans to become rich? You don’t even have a place for all the vampire girls to stay.

There are 10 days left for the next full moon, so how about you work on your plan. And when the night of the full moon comes, you can go to the vampire world and bring them here?”

Angelica was brimming with optimism. She only looked at the good things that had and could happen. However, she was doing that for Rudy, not herself.

Suddenly, loud footsteps could be heard approaching Rudy’s room.

“…!”

Rudy looked at the doorway to see Rebecca standing there with teary eyes. She had heard Rudy yelling, so she came to check his room.

“Mom…”

“Rudy…!” Rebecca rushed into the room to Rudy and kissed him on the lips.

“…!”
