Vampire's Slice Of Life

Chapter 654 Bella

?

"Your Majesty, I have returned."

A pink-haired lady was kneeling down in front of Lilith and said so in a subservient manner.

Lilith was about to address this lady when she saw Lith and her attention diverted.

"Baby!" She got up and vanished from her spot, appearing right in front of Lith in the next instant.

"Little brother." Lucy got up as well and said with a smile on her face.

"!!?" The pink-haired lady kneeling on the ground was dumbfounded with such a sudden change in atmosphere.

She didn't think the moment she returned, she would see the Queen and the Princess act in such a manner.

Wondering who this person was that had the ability to change the mood of the world's strongest person and her daughter, the lady turned around, only to get a shock of a lifetime.

The Queen and the Princess were hugging a silver-haired man!

'A man!? I didn't think I would live this long to see Her Majesty and Her Highness do something like that!'

Lith, while hugging his mother and sister, felt an intense gaze on himself. 

Lilith and Lucy noticed it as well and turned around to look at the person doing it.

"You shouldn't stare like that, Bella." Lilith said.

"Huh— ah, yeah. My apologizes, Your Majesty." The pink-haired lady, called Bella, snapped out of her thoughts and apologized after realising her blunder.

Lilith then turned to look at Lith and smiling, she asked while pointing at the pink-haired lady, "do you know who she is, baby?"

Lucy suddenly smiled from the side as she heard that question from her mother. She then looked at Lith, waiting to see how he would react for what was about to come.

Lith, noticing his mother and sister's change of reactions, wondered what was happening and why this was the case.

Being asked who Bella was, he firstly looked in her direction and saw her tall and curvy figure.

He had never seen this person in his life, but the word Bella did ring some bells, except they too were faint and his memories were hazy regarding this.

For a good few minutes, Lith tried his best to analyse and think of who Bella was, but at the end, found nothing.

He then turned to look at his mother and shaking his head, said honestly, "I feel like I do know who she is, but also don't at the same time."

Lilith chuckled. She ruffled Lith's hair and replied, "mama knew this would happen. Come, I'll introduce her to you."

Lilith, along with Lucy and Lith, went in front of Bella.

As they reached, before Lilith could even make an introduction, Bella immediately bowed and said, 

"I give my sincerest greetings to the His Highness, the Vampire Prince."

The tone this time was more subservient than before, surprising Lith. He looked at her for a bit, wondering why she was doing this and also who she was.

Meanwhile, inside Bella's mind:

'FOR THE LOVE OF MAGIC! HOW CAN I BE SO STUPPIIIDDDDDD!!!!'

'HOW DIDN'T I IMMEDIATELY NOT REALIZE HE'S THE PRINCE!?'

'NO! Not THE Prince but MY Prince!'

'Bella, Bella, Bella, how have you become so dumb!? Truly a big disappointment.'

'Phew, thankfully I recognised the Prince on time, otherwise it would be so awkward and bad.' 

'Speaking of the Prince… isn't he… too handsome?'

Bella's neutral face turned into that of a confused one as she wondered how such a handsome being could even come into existence.

But then she calmed down knowing her Queen was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen and it was only natural that her son would have such looks as well.

Despite that, her thoughts couldn't help but run on the facts that Lith's body was also perfect and his overall appearance were beyond the most perfect state.

Unknowingly, only after a single glimpse, Bella's mind was lost thinking of Lith's charisma.

Lilith, noticing Lith having trouble remembering Bella, patted his back lightly and said, "you won't recall anything, even if you try your best."

"Hmm?" Lith looked at his mother with a confused face. Such comment from her were rare as there was no such memory which he couldn't recall.

Lilith chuckled. "Baby, you can only recall things which you know about or have some rough idea of. This girl here is Bella. You've hardly been given any information about her by anyone in the castle."

Lith felt more confused by his mother's words. What did she mean by that? Were the maidservants in the castle supposed to give him some information about this lady here or were they perhaps didn't know anything and just gave him a limited amount of information?

Lucy, watching her brother's face turn more and more confused, shook her head with a smile.

"Mom, just break the ice. You shouldn't keep him wondering so much. You know how much little brother overthinks anyway, right?"

"Right…" Lilith chuckled.

Lilith wrapped her arms around Lith's shoulder and got in front of Bella.

"Get up, Bella." She commanded.

Once Bella was up, Lilith put her other free hand on Bella's shoulder and said, "this girl right here, is a Royal Servant."

"Ah…" Lith immediately recalled a few things as his mother hit him with a few clues.

But then he felt disappointed again as the clues were hardly of use.

Lilith didn't say anything to him. She knew this would happen we well. Instead, she continued and said,

"Not only is she a Royal Servant, but also, she's the first ever girl I took under me."

"Wait… what?" 

Lith was dumbfounded as well as surprised. The first ever Royal Servant? Wasn't that Luna? Or perhaps Noman or Ruben?

Lilith nodded her head and smiled. "She indeed is. I found her stranded and in a pretty messed up state. I don't know what happened to me that day, but I wasn't as cold as before and took her in."

Bella, hearing that, suddenly recalled the day she met her Queen.

Her eyes turned moist remembering that fine day and her whole life flashed in front of her eyes.

She held her tears in despite everything turning emotional and thought to herself, 'I'll never forget the kindness of Her Majesty and the things she did for me. I'll forever be grateful.'

Looking at Bella, who seemed to have gotten emotional, Lilith felt she should not pause here now otherwise Bella might really end up crying.

Changing topics, she continued, "also do you know…"

"...Bella is the last remaining Fairy."

"WHAT!?"

Hi everyone, I am so sorry for not keeping up with the promises.

I am in the hospital right now. Been like that for the past few days.

My head hurts a lot and I don't feel any motivation to write anything. 

I am so sorry to all the privilege readers who bought the extra chapters. 

I couldn't provide this month due to circumstances.

I am feeling a bit fine now and should be discharged in a few days.

I'll try to write as much as I can and ensure to give back all the chapters possible and make up for it.

^^^^This above announcement was made on discord a few days ago.

If you have joined it, you should be in the know of it.

I am finally out of the hospital and am an alright stare.

If I am not wrong, there's 16 chapters that are remaining to be posted.

I'll do mass releases of 5 chapters before this month's end and try my best to make up.

But I am really sorry guys, i can't really promise if I'll be able to fully achieve this goal or not. My health still isn't in the best state.

But yes, I'll do try my level best and make up.

This is the first of the 16 chapters so 15 remaining. 

Alright, I'll go write more now. Hope you all have a good day and thank you for your understanding.
