350 Marriage Preparations
“Wait, one second. You’ll marry mama and Lucy too?” Lilith looked at Lith and asked with a bit of surprise.
Lith nodded. “Obviously, why would I leave you two alone?”
Lilith fell silent as she heard that.
Noticing this, Lith asked, “what is it mom, is there some problem?”
Lilith shook her head. “Not really, it was just surprising. I thought you didn’t have any such plans.”
Lucy, from the side, added, “Yes, me too. I thought he would just leave us alone.”
Lith chuckled and said, “How is that possible? Anyway, let’s get going. There’s a lot of things to do. The marriage will be a week later. How do you guys want it to be? Something grand or something that will be super private, consisting of nobody else other than us?”
The ladies fell silent and pondered over it. Soon, Emilia finished collecting her thoughts and came up with an answer first.
“I do have my parents, but it’s fine. It’ll be too much of a shock for them to see me get married to a vampire and also someone so young. So, my preference would be to have a marriage in private with no one else being there other than us in this room.”
Arya, being supportive of Emilia’s decision, said, “I’ll go with Emmy’s preference.”
Lith nodded hearing it. He then looked at Alexandra and asked, “what about you, honey?”
Alexandra looked at Emilia and Arya and said, “I do have my parents as well, but I don’t want to bring them to the Vampire Continent yet. Only after vengeance is taken will they set foot on this continent. So I agree with big sis Arya and Emilia’s decision.”
Lith nodded. “Understood. Mom, big sis, what about you two?”
Lucy shook her head and said, “I don’t want it to be grand. The less people the better. The idea of doing it in private with just us feels better to me.”
“Got it. What about you, mom?”
Lilith smiled and said, “If all are thinking of the same thing, I have no problem with that. Let’s go with doing it privately.”
Lith clapped his hand and said, “then, it’s decided. We’ll have just us in the marriage and since it’s only us, what better place to get married will it be than in the Royal Castle itself? The courtyard, the ballroom, all the places have been quite lonely and collecting dust for a long time. They’ll finally have a use for them, haha!”
Everyone smiled hearing it and Emilia and Lucy giggled.
“Now that everything is cleared up, are you guys going to stay in the castle until then or go away and do some work?” Lith asked.
“I have work to do…” Emilia said in a low voice.
Being the principal of the world’s number one academy, she had a lot of things to do. One mistake from her could affect the lives of the children present in the academy and that would in turn become a huge problem.
Let’s say a child just got punished by an instructor or the child just suffered due to the failure of the management of the academy, the child would always remember this and keep it buried in his heart. This thing would later make him seek trouble with the academy and affect his future as well.
The thing may become a heart demon or something that would hold him back in his future cultivation and this would be very problematic. The academy was strict with its rules and also with its management. But, everything was there for the betterment of the children present in it.
The academy’s goal was to prepare the students for the world when they graduate and not to create problems for them. Thus, Emilia had a lot of responsibilities on herself. If she messes up, the lives of the students will be chaotic.
Thus, she always ensured that she didn’t slack and if she wanted breaks, she had to prepare for it beforehand.
The marriage thing was too sudden and she had to take care of a few things to have herself get holidays for a few days to a week. She couldn’t just leave everything to Sel, her secretary.
“Can you not skip it for a week or two?” Lith asked.
Emilia shook her head. “I can’t, but I’ll try to wind it up as soon as I can and come back here.”
Lith nodded. “I understand, do your best.”
Lith then looked at Arya for an answer and Arya simply shook her head. “I’ve got work to do as well and so does Alexandra. We’ll be back in the Royal Castle in 2 days.”
“Okay. Mom, big sis, you two don’t have work as well, do you?” Lith then asked Lilith and Lucy with a smile.
Lucy looked at Lith and said with a smile, “I do have work, but it can be delayed by a week or two, it’s not a problem.”
Hearing this, Lilith turned to look at Lucy and said, “Ara, is the Queen slacking on her work?”
Lucy became slightly embarrassed hearing this. Of course she was slacking but there was no need for her mother to call her out like this.
Lucy shook her head and coughing lightly, she said, “It’s not like that, mom. And also, I am not the Queen, you are.”
Lilith smiled and patted Lucy’s head. “You will soon be. Mama wants to retire as the Vampire Queen and play with her babies all day. Become stronger fast and free mama of this position.”
Lucy took out her tongue and said, “That’s no possibile. It’s too much of a headache to be the Queen. You can handle it yourself, I wanna spend time with little brother.”
The ladies in the room smiled hearing this. This scenario, it felt very wholesome to everyone present.
If word got out that the Vampire Queen and the Substitute Queen were having a banter like this, they would definitely not believe this. But despite that, it would become a very hot topic almost instantly.
The whole world kept themselves updated with things related to the Vampire Royal Clan. The reason was that it was the only clan in the world consisting of three members. All other clans had a bare minimum of at least ten or more or they wouldn’t be called a clan.
Another thing was that just these three people were the sole rulers of billions of people present in one of the only nine continents of the world. It was an amazing feat and something which couldn’t be achieved by anyone.
There was also the unofficial declaration of the Vampire Queen being the strongest and so, the people kept themselves updated with them.
After the talks were over, Arya, Alexandra, and Emilia left the Royal Castle.
Lith got dressed and saying goodbye to his mother and sister, he went to make preparations for the marriage.
A few days passed.
The marriage preparations were going on in full swing. All 200 servants were present in the Royal Castle currently and were doing their best to decorate and prepare the castle.
The dark Royal Castle had a lot of colorful and bright decorations done on it from the outside. These decorations made the appearance of the castle even better and something very extravagant and exquisite to look at.
The colorful decorations complimented the darkness of the castle and around a thousand kilometres in radius, a lot of barriers were set up.
These barriers ensured that nobody was able to spy on the castle from the outside or from far away and also to ensure the castle wasn’t visible to anyone. The barriers hid the castle very well from the rest of the world.
This was done to ensure that there were no stupid news or topics that would go on in the world. If given any small thing about the Royal Clan to the news outlets or to the internet, they would make a mountain out of a molehill.
The people would also make a lot of conspiracy theories regarding the same and all in all, it would become a controversial and hot topic for nothing. This would just end up tarnishing/ruining the image of the Royal Clan and nobody wanted that to happen.
After the barrier was ensured to be put up, the decorations of the inside of the castles went on. All the rooms, all the halls, everything was decorated nicely and it gave off a very warm feeling to everyone who looked at these things.
Finally, just 3 days prior to the marriage, all the decorations were done and completed. Only a few more things were needed to be done and Lith could finally get married.
