As Lith entered the castle and looked around, he couldn't help but have one single thought:
'Damn!'
The Empress' Castle, from the inside, was too luxurious!
Everywhere around, it was either gold, silver, some other valuable gems or simply magic stones out of which things were made.
Even the most useless things, such as decorations on the wall, were rare and expensive things. One such being the head of a beast that had long become extinct.
Lith compared his home to this castle subconsciously and found that this place definitely was a lot more shiny and flashy, unlike the Royal Castle in Nightingale that brought a sense of comfort to Lith. Things were kept simply there and hardly anything that was too flashy was present.
Whatever the case, his wife sure knew her stuff and Lith commended her for that.
What Lith didn't know was that this was just a glimpse of Arya's immense wealth. The amount spent in making this luxurious castle would probably be equivalent to a drop of water falling into an ocean.
Arya was just too damn rich.
If Arya's wealth was to be compared with Lilith's, it would be simple.
Arya had things in excess and things she didn't even need while Lilith kept things that she or her children would need in future or now.
Lilith had the power to get anything she wanted in this world, then why bother to have more wealth than needed? It was a pointless thing in her opinion and something that she would need to work for uselessly.
As for Arya, although she didn't try to hoard things herself, being the ruler of the underworld, things naturally flowed in towards her. Everything was placed in the Hidden Continent previously but only now a bit of wealth had come out from there and into the Dragon Continent to make things.
Lilith had things such as these happen previously, but the servants under her were smart enough to keep the flow of wealth going from the castle to the vampire society and had it running properly.
The Vampire Society was one of the only few in the world where there weren't any poor people present. After them were the Dragons who loved treasures, followed by the Angels at the last who were governed by the Heavenly Court.
These three societies of the world had no poor people or beings living in the poverty line.
The servants of the Royal Castle were smart in their governance coupled with the fact that the society there itself was self-reliant due to a few events that happened in the past.
As for Dragons, it went without saying that the name of their race itself was synonymous with wealth as every single dragon had some or the other thing on them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Heavenly Court was a body made solely to look after the Angels and govern them. It was due to their hard work that the Angel society had no poor person whatsoever.
Except for these three societies of the world, the rest had a lot of poor people present.
The majority of them were in the Demon Continent, then the Human, followed by the Witch, and then Elven.
In any case, Lith would definitely rank in the top five wealthiest people in the world if people were allowed to have a look into his wealth.
Lith was just that wealthy but didn't know about it himself.
As for Arya, she may probably be in the top 3.
Walking around the castle, things felt so shiny and blinding.
But then given that his wife was a Dragon, Lith felt it was reasonable.
After a bit of walking, Lith finally came to the place where Arya was.
She was in one of the many courtyards of her castle, sitting in front of a small pond, and sipping on some tea while looking at who knows what as she had a blindfold on and it was difficult to point it out.
Lith may not know it but it was him who got all his ladies addicted to tea. It was due to his habit of frequently drinking tea that his ladies got influenced.
Lith walked close to Arya as she sipped on some tea, and being right behind her, he decided to place his hands on her already covered eyes and said,
"Guess who?"
"!?" For a split second, Arya was shocked, but then it was all gone as she heard the familiar voice.
Lilith was with Lith and naturally, she had the means to cover him from the senses of even a Supreme Rank.
But of course, Lith placing his hands on Arya's eyes that were already covered to cover it was stupidity that even Lilith couldn't explain why Lith would do.
"I wonder who it may be?" Arya said with a chuckle.
"I wonder too." Lith added and followed suit.
Lilith, after finding that the two have met, walked towards Arya and sat in front of her.
"So it was due to mother, it seems." Arya, looking at Lilith, finally understood why she wasn't able to sense Lith.
Lilith smiled and nodded her head.
Lith let go of Arya's eyes and hugged her. He then asked, "How have you been?"
Arya smiled and answered, "Lonely without you."
Lith chuckled. "I was too."
Lilith from the sidelines, said with a smile, "My, my, look at this cheeky couple, flirting in broad daylight."
Lith and Arya laughed in response.
Lith then took a chair and sitting close to Arya, he started having a light chat with her.
While talking, Lith saw the pond and noticed there was something happening there.
Looking closely, Lith was surprised.
There was a black-haired, red-eyed girl donning a light armour and fighting a hundred people without breaking a sweat.
This person was of course no other than Alexandra.
Alexandra's movements were really fluid as Lith looked into the pond. She was fighting dragons, humans, and all sorts of monsters and beasts together.
What surprised him wasn't the ability with which she seemed to effortlessly clash with her opponents, but how none of her moves were wasted in any way whatsoever.
Alexandra, with each move, was able to land a hit on her opponents and this hit didn't seem something light as her opponents would be half dead with just one slash from her double-bladed sword.
Feeling amazed by her, Lith couldn't help but say, "She is amazing…"
Alexandra was a talented individual, having a rare bloodline and was also gifted with aptitude not seen elsewhere in the world.
She was a battle savvy, blood-thirsty vampire who would show sadistic tendencies if let run wild, showing no mercy to anyone.
Lith did have an idea about his wife, but watching her in action and knowing about it was something entirely different. The last he remembered watching her fight was when she was in the Shadow River Sect and then fighting her himself.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut Alexandra went soft after she got together with Lith and he didn't get to see her sadistic side until now.
This made him remember that she indeed was someone one shouldn't mess with and how she was so talented yet needed just a bit of time to grow even further.
But then Lith realized that he had the power to help Alexandra even further in her cultivation and help her grow.
Not just her, Lith had a little something for everyone.
Lith was about to get back to talking with Arya but she instead chimed in and said,
"She isn't just amazing, she's one of a kind."
"Hmm?" Lith turned to look at her, not understanding.
Arya smiled and pointed towards the pond. She continued, "Talent like Alexandra is rare. How rare, you ask? As rare as finding an inheritance of an Emperor Rank or above."
Arya then looked at Lilith and pointing towards Lith, asked, "I wonder what sort of luck my husband has to find someone so talented so easily? Is it really luck or is it your doing, mother?"
Lilith was a Legendary Rank and although Arya was yet to know more about it, she roughly guessed that Lilith may have the power to provide immense luck or opportunities to Lith.
Lilith chuckled as she heard Arya's question and said, "Will you believe me if I said I had no role in this?"
Arya clapped her hand and said smiling, "Of course. If I don't believe in my mother-in-law, who else will?"
Lilith giggled lightly and Arya chuckled as well.
Meanwhile Lith was confused but he didn't disturb the harmony of his wife bonding with his mother or one could also say the harmony of his wives bonding together.
The three continued to chat together and watched Alexandra fight.
After a while…
.....
