Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 473 - 473 Storm Breaking Out



473 Storm Breaking Out

The elders ran faster as if they were going to fight for the position of the emperor.

Lucio stared at the crafty smile on her face and shook his head. He could ot believe they fell for it.

“They are too greedy to think rationally.” she replied when he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

“Why are you here? I am sure it had nothing to do with these strange plans.” she smiled at his observance as he sat and looked at her.

“A few of the witches had stolen beryllium. If the war started, all of our efforts to bring peace would go to waste. I am here to ask for help. You are more in contact with witches than me. Help me and I promise to return the favor.”

He shook his head while he turned solemn.

“You do not need to return the favor, you have already done more than I can ever expect. It is my duty to stop the war as the leader of the coven.” he rubbed his forehead as if he was trying to remember when he paused and then stared at her with a grim face.

“There is an information guild here. It is mostly made of dark witches but it’s a good place to gain information. If you want, I can go there and look for clues.” she paused as she recalled the words of Michael.

She knew that was doubting her. Her hands clenched into a tight fist as she shook her head.

.....

“No! I will come with you. As the emperor, this is my job.” He wanted to refuse at first but when he looked at her determined face, he nodded his head.

“But you have to remember that we are a team. You can do everything alone.” he warned when she sighed but nodded her head.

“Good, then we need to disguise ourselves. I will ask some maids to help you.”

“That would not be needed.” she closed her eyes and whispered a spell. Soon her hair changed into brown color and her face turned darker changing her features while his hair and eyes turned darker like night.

He stared at himself in the mirror with a shocked look on his face.

“I never knew such kind of magic existed.” she smirked at him as she adjusted her dress too.

“There are benefits of being the dark witch. I can dwell into dark and forbidden magic too.” she shrugged with a look of arrogance on his face.

Then he insisted on taking the carriage as they left for the information guild. For some reason, she wanted to solve the case before Rafael.

For the first time, it did not feel like they were working together but against each other.

“Your majesty.. Lady Hazel.” Hazel blinked and looked at Lucio who was staring at her with confusion.

“I was asking,” Do you have doubts about someone?” he repeated calmly looking at the confusion on her face when she paused.

“If I could be my mother. If she knew how my father had tried to attack us when we had come to the palace for the first time, she might be trying to take revenge.

Or.. it could be the elders working with you. They think that I favor you so much. So they want to get rid of me and snatch the powers.

Or it could be some enemy of the council..” she shook her head, “no matter who they were, they are trying to gain the victory against vampires so that council and i break down.” he sighed as he looked out of the window.

“I can not understand why they could not choose peace? Did they not know how many people had sacrificed their life for it.”

She smiled mockingly as if it was a joke but did not reply. Yet her silence said it all.

As they reached the small plaza, the carriage was stopped and they entered into a small inn.

Many were drinking there or having their dinner. The ambience was jolly with laughing and drinking while men were having small bets and competition.

“I want to order the most expensive dish of the inn.” said Lucio as he took out a bag full of gold coins and placed it on the table.

The maid stared at the bag and then at him with confusion.

“You are misunderstanding, kind sir. We do not have such an expensive dish served here.” she replied with a soft but stern voice when he scoffed and then placed another bag on the table full of gold.

The eyes of the girl flickered. She stared at it and then at the man unsure of what to do when he threw another bag of coins on the ground.

“Alright come with me. I will try to serve you better.” she said with a sigh and then opened the back door for them.

Lucio signaled her to come while scanning the whole area.

She changed a few passages, finally stopping in front of one and then pointing inside.

“There is your table kind sir. Please wait there while I bring the special menu.” they nodded and walked towards the table when the door was closed and the clinking of locking was heard.

But after a few seconds the door on the other side was opened and a man with a dark cloak that had covered his whole face except his lips and chin entered.

“What do you want and who informed you about us?” the man came straight to the point.

“We are here to gain information about the movements of the witches. We want to know if any information was brought by them or sold here. We will pay a good amount for the useful information.” cut Hazel as she took out a bag of gems this time.

The men stared at the shining stone and his eyes glittered.

“Yes, there is a storm building in and soon another war will break out.”
