Sins Paradise: Domination System

Chapter 208 208 – Aftermath Of Kidnapping

?

Using a rope created from the monster's leather, I ensured Mia couldn't move even a muscle and put her on the floor near the stairs.

"What to do…" I muttered in wonder as I held my head.

Even after I put her to sleep, the rampaging state hadn't disappeared yet. It was strange and confusing.

"I guess I will ask Lucy about it. As a vampire, she's bound to know something about this."

According to my radar, they were running here at this moment. And the blue dot in this mansion also moved, slowly getting closer to me. I looked toward the end of the stairs, and there she was, peeking with a mischievous smile on her face as if nothing was wrong.

Jumping out of the shadow, Milea smiled widely with a proud expression.

"I know Sir Arthur will save me. You just love me so much."

"That's just your imagination, Milea."

Watching Milea giggling while descending the stairs, I let out a long sigh.

"Oh?"

It was only when she got closer to me that she exclaimed, looking at Mia, who was bound on the floor.

"Sir Arthur…" Milea muttered, looking at me in disbelief. "I never thought you would bind such a pitiful, unconscious girl to that state." She approached Mia and poked her cheek.

I coldly looked at the cheeky nun and called her, "Milea."

"Yes?" She replied, raising her head.

"A month prohibition from leaving the mansion area. And no reward or punishment for you in that meantime."

Milea gasped loudly while hiding her small mouth with her hand, "It can't be! But what about my fate? My punishment–?!"

"Deal with it yourself."

I replied shortly and carried Mia over my shoulders.

The cheeky nun kept muttering, "No way…"

She still couldn't believe that I would hold her punishment.

I meant… it couldn't be helped. Mia's situation was more urgent, and both Alesia and Lucy would arrive shortly.

Turning around, I told Milea, "We're leaving."

***

We left the mansion together and joined Alesia and Lucy, who came running.

"Aunt!"

Once Milea saw the headmistress, she chirped loudly and spread her arms, throwing her body toward the older Elf.

Alesia smiled at her niece, but then…

Tak!

"Ouch!"

Milea collided with something invisible surrounding the headmistress' body and fell to her butt. When the collision happened, a light blue sphere came into view, but it quickly disappeared as fast as it appeared.

"You're too careless, my niece. Did you forget the barrier I always put around my body?"

Alesia lectured the cheeky nun and extended her hand, helping her to stand up.

"Hehehe, I am sorry. It's been a decade since we met, after all." Milea giggled mischievously as she took the older Elf's hand.

The way she said a decade as if it was just a blink of a time was amazing. 5 years were long enough to me, but as for these Elves, it was just as if they were out for a walk in the morning and returned in the evening.

The pair of aunt and niece began to catch up by themselves as Lucy approached me, observing the unconscious Mia on my shoulder.

"Will she be fine, Lucy?" I asked curiously.

"If she stays like this, then no." Lucy shook her head in answer.

"What do you mean?"

"Her state is abnormal among vampires. Have you learned <Appraisal>, Arthur?" The vampire girl asked, and I nodded at her. "If so, then you would see (Full Moon Rampage) in her status. That status will lower her intelligence and will make her a mindless beast if not treated correctly."

That would be awful. However…

"Can you treat her?"

Lucy mentioned that Mia could become a mindless beast if not treated correctly. Based on her words, there should be a way to treat this (Full Moon Rampage), which happened to a vampire.

Rather, if there was no way to treat this condition, many vampires would attack indiscriminately. Probably, that was where this vampire hunt came from. And that was why Mia got that title. That title made it easier for the owner to fall under (Full Moon Rampage), after all.

"I can," Lucy confirmed. "But it will take time. Is that okay for you, Arthur?"

"You can take as much time as you need. Just make sure that Mia is cured, and it will be wonderful if you can teach her to control her emotion. I believe you understand your kin more than me."

Even if I tried to solve it myself, it would probably end that way. Punishing Mia in her current condition was also impossible. So leaving it to the expert, Lucy, would be the best choice.

"I understand." She responded as she took Mia from my shoulders carefully.

The pair of aunt and niece seemed to have finished their discussion too. Milea's forehead had a little bump that she healed with <Holy Magic> while Alesia looked at me with a gaze that said we should get out of here.

When I realized it, many people began to check this area. I knew it was my fault, so I didn't comment much.

"Let's move to my room in the inn. Get close to me."

As Alesia suggested, I immediately accepted with a nod.

The headmistress asked us to get around, and so we followed her words.

Without any warning whatsoever, she snapped her finger, and a bright magic circle appeared under us. The light was similar to when I used <Teleportation Gem>.

"This is…?!"

"<Teleportation>"

Finishing her magic, the light surrounded our bodies, and we disappeared from the place. The scenery changed. The previous street changed into an interior of a luxurious inn.

Alesia had a proud look on her face as she looked at me. Did she do that just to show off her skill to me? If so, she succeeded. But I would remember it.

Everything went smoothly afterward. Milea jumped on the bed to sleep. She was exhausted from my punishment and the mental burden she experienced when she was kidnapped, so she drifted to the dream realm very quickly.

As for Lucy, I gave her two <Teleportation Gems> to return to the Border City with Mia. I also gave her some Gold Coins and two tubes full of my blood as thanks for her cooperation. Without her, this problem would be a bit troublesome.

What was left in the room was Alesia and me. She proposed to have a drink while taking out an expensive bottle of wine from a magic item that worked like a fridge.

I smiled wryly. It was the first time I heard a headmistress ask the student at her school to have a drink together. But I needed the drink to calm myself down. I didn't want to use <Calm Mind> too much.

Because she also helped me in this case, I poured a drink for her as we sat around a small table on the balcony.

Alesia's room was on the highest floor. It seemed like she moved from her previous inn to enjoy some luxury before returning to the Academy City tomorrow. Thankfully, she was still here at this time.

Anyway, we cheered and had a drink. After we finished our first shot, I poured her some again and poured a little bit of wine for myself.

At that moment, the headmistress asked.

"What do you want to do now? Taking out the real culprit?"

Her question had a hint that she knew who this real culprit was without me telling her. As expected from an intelligent woman and an experienced elder. She knew her things.

"Hahaha, you must be joking."

I laughed and put the glass down. The table shook because of an excessive force I unconsciously exerted.

My eyes glint in the darkness of the night as I look at the tower of the Royal Castle. That girl wasn't on the balcony.

"There is no way I will do that." I smiled warmly at Alesia.

For some reason, the corner of her eyes twitched slightly as she maintained her poker face.

"You're a dangerous guy." She commented. "Don't spark a war, okay?"

"I won't."

I understood her worry, so I replied shortly and poured another drink. The sound of wine filling my glass was relaxing, and I watched the red liquid dance inside.

Picking it up, I raised it to my eye level and smiled.

"It won't be a war at all."

"Truly…" The headmistress sighed tiredly. "Keep this matter as a private problem and don't bring our academy name. If you sully it… then I won't forgive you."

At the end of her sentence, she released the bloodlust equivalent to some Ranker back in Horizon Online and directed it at me. I smiled wryly. This headmistress was truly interesting and dangerous.

If possible, I didn't want to fight her. So I nodded my head.

"I promise."

"Good." She nodded and pulled her bloodlust back.

We continued to drink until midnight.

I took my prized wine from my inventory when the bottle was empty. Alesia's expression when she tasted it was interesting. Now she wouldn't be able to drink normal wine anymore as they would taste like gutter water compared to the one I just took out.

As for the matter regarding that crazy psychopath, I already had a plan to get back at her. Far worse than what she tried to pull.
