Chapter 631 Back To The Mansion

"Eh?" replied Lenora in confusion.

"Good. Then, please follow me after this, miss…" said Darius before stopping.

"Le-Lenora Dra-Dracule. B-But I can't. I need to be with my Master." replied Lenora anxiously.

"It's fine. It will not take a lot of time. I believe Master Mira will be more at ease if you could work better." persuaded Darius calmly.

Lenora didn't reply and glanced at Mira before getting a silent nod. Seeing this, Lenora couldn't help but look gloomy. Compared to Master Darren or the head butler Darius, she is literally nothing.

She didn't even know why Master Mira chose her as her aide despite her previous slave background. Before Master Darren and Master Vlad take over the Eternal Kingdom, she is a slave and plaything for the previous Vampire King Alfred.

Despite her status as Pureblood Vampire, she constantly gets bullied and struggles daily to get a drop of nutritious blood. All of this is because she was born as a woman. Unlike now, the previous Vampire King Alfred is not only prejudiced against the non-vampire race but also against females.

It could be said Vampire King Alfred is the worst Vampire King with strong prejudice towards females. Because of her background, she is shy and has low self-esteem.

In fact, she wants to serve Mira all her life since she has never been bullied and hungry since her return. Mira also treats her better and likes to give things despite her taciturn behavior.

However, she also knows her own weakness. Although Darren said she is the most talented Pureblood, she still needs to learn many things. Now, she is forced to leave Mira because of her inadequateness.

This makes her have complicated feelings. She knows she will improve faster under Darius' guidance, but she also hates herself for this. Noticing Lenora's gloominess, Mira approaches her aide and looks at Lenora's red eyes.

"Ma-Master?!" said Lenora anxiously.

However, Mira didn't say anything and kept staring at her. Suddenly, Lenora enters a trance state before tears come from her eyes. A moment later, she emerges from her trance and looks more resolute.

"I-I will work hard, Master!!" said Lenora earnestly.

No one knows what happened during these few seconds, but everyone knows Mira did something to Lenora. Using this opportunity, Angus also talks to Darius.

"Uncle Darius, since you decided to help Lenora, could you also train for another two women?" asked Angus.

"Two? May I know who they are?" asked Darius.

"Oh, they are Jayna's personal maid. They are…" said Angus.

Before Angus finished his sentence, "Hold it, Baron Victory. You could leave them to me. Even if this old bone turns to ash, I will definitely turn them into worthy personal maids for the Fourth Princess." said the old head Darius in a fiery tone.

Angus and Jayna could somehow see a fire in Darius' eyes. They never expect Darius to be so excited to train Brigida and Lilith before knowing their name or background. However, they also know Darius is a person who takes his job very seriously.

As far as they remember, he always prepares everything during their stay at the Royal Palace. Even if Angus and Jayna dismiss most maids and butlers in the Royal Princess Palace, they still get daily necessities without a problem.

"Then, I will leave them to you, Uncle Darius." chimed Jayna.

"Don't worry about it, Fourth Princess. Just enjoy your life." replied Darius politely.

"Alright, let's get going first. Anna, stop eating. You will finish it before we arrive at the mansion." said Angus.

"No, my snack!!" complained Anna, who was munching the snack nonstop from the pouch she previously got.

"See ya, Uncle Darius." said Angus and Jayna before entering the carriage with Anna and Mira.

"Safe travel, Fourth Princess." replied Darius with a polite bow.

The travel towards Angus' mansion is fast and unimpeded. Not only did no one dare to stop the Royalty Carriage, but they were also escorted by some knights. Arriving at the Victory Mansion, Anna immediately drags Mira out of the carriage while holding Darius's snack pouch.

"Mira, let's go look around. Angus and Jayna want to mate. No need to disturb Angus and Jayna." said Anna while hopping to Mira's flying pillow.

"Anna!!" called Jayna while blushing.

Ignoring Jayna's words, "Go! Go! Wissy Wissy!!" said Anna before pointing in a random direction.

Before Angus and Jayna could react, the two girls had already gone into the horizon.

"Be sure to come back before night!!" shouted Jayna in worry.

"Err…Jayna, didn't she say she wanted to look around the mansion?" asked Angus.

"Yes. Is something wrong?" asked Jayna.

"I think they have already left the capital city." replied Angus.

"They what?!!" said Jayna in surprise.

"*Sigh* Don't worry. I doubt there is someone who could hurt them in the Heart Kingdom. They will be back before we know it. Well, they may bring something weird again when they come back." said Angus.

"I hope so." replied Jayna while still seeing Anna's direction.

"Ehem… Brother, aren't you going to keep ignoring me and not introduce your eldest brother?" chimed Jason from the side.

The moment Jason heard a royal carriage arrive at their gate, Jason immediately ran towards the entrance to welcome them. Still, he didn't expect his troublemaker brother to bluntly bring Fourth Princess to their mansion openly.

"Ahh… Brother, let me introduce you to the Fourth Princess, Jayna Heart. Jayna, you may have already seen or heard this conceited guy before. But let me introduce you. This is my eldest brother, Jason Victory, the current heir of the Victory Family." said Angus casually.

"Though, he only got it because no one wanted to take care of the goddammit paperwork." added Angus playfully.

"Brother, don't you think you should say a good thing when you introduce someone." said Jason with a grimace.

"Oh, come on, brother. People more easily remember bad things than good ones. Besides, I am just stating a fact. Even the eldest cousin Jane prefers to stay at the border than take care of the endless paperwork." replied Angus nonchalantly.

"You little piece of shit…" said Jason before trying to catch Angus.

Unfortunately, Angus didn't let his brother catch him and kept dodging. While the two brothers interact, Jayna can only laugh at this. She knows his relationship with Jason is too good at first but has improved over the years.

She also knows Angus deliberately said that to lessen Jason's pressure as the heir of the Victory Family.

As a high noble, she often hears the successor of Duke rank is a very complex and challenging path. Not only does Jason need to be strong, but he also needs to be good at many things.

Currently, the Victory Family is the strongest family besides the Royal Heart Family in the kingdom. Many people have high expectations for Jason. This will give Jason invisible pressure, especially in the noble circle.

Although Jason never says anything about it, he is still quite anxious. In fact, he knows his qualification is barely reaching the threshold to become the next Duke. Not to mention Angus, his qualifications are even worse than those of his cousins.

Jane and her siblings may have just recently joined the Heart Kingdom, but they are already famous in their respective fields. Jane and Isvel have already made their name in the military. As for Gilford, his achievement is more ridiculous.

He even got nominated as the next Head of the Research Center. His research and magical engineering are top-notch, even on par with old researchers like Master Benjamin.

While Kurvan, the eldest son of Jade, is outside the kingdom, Jason knows he is more qualified than him. In fact, of all of his cousins, Kurvan is the most qualified person to inherit the Dukedom.

Unlike his siblings, Kurvan loves to manage things in the Sur Village before coming to the Heart Kingdom. He also has a calm head and can see things more clearly.

Unfortunately, his combat prowess is less than Jane's. Otherwise, he will be the one that inherited the Sur Village leader before.

While the two brothers joke around and enter the mansion, they notice someone coming fast from the mansion gate. Seeing the person, Angus immediately pushes Jason towards the incoming person and hides behind Jayna.

"Angus, my baby boy!!" called Aunt Hersha while running towards him.

With her fast reaction, she slaps away her nephew Jason before trying to catch Angus behind Jayna. The two Aunt and nephew begin their game of cat and mouse at high speed. All the nearby guards and knights only find blurry figures of Angus dodging his Aunt.

On the other hand, Jason is rolling on the ground with a red hand mark on his face. He could only grumble at his Aunt's different treatment. When he is still a child, Aunt Hersha also pesters him and makes him breathless under her mountain breast.

However, she starts to ignore him as he grows up. Vergil also receives the same treatment as Jason. In contrast to his brother, Angus keeps being pestered by Aunt Hersha even after he grows into adulthood.

'Urgh… If I am not wrong, she even tried to snatch and adopt Angus on her own from mother.' thought Jason inwardly while tending the big bump on his cheek.

Looking at Angus' desperate run from their Aunt, Jason didn't know if he should be angry or relieved from not becoming their Aunt's target.
