For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

" Brother? " 

Bun-Bun poked his head from behind the door. Cassius, the Blood Prince, had a serious face as he read a letter in his hand. Upon seeing Bun-Bun, he yeeted that piece of paper and stood with a bright expression. 

" Ashel, no need to be polite, come inside " 

Bun-Bun strode over to his side, saying in a small voice:" hungry..." 

Cassius's eyes shone. He cupped the other's face and said in a sweet tone as if coaxing a child.

" ow, our little boy is hungry. Come here, big brother will give some blood "

" I am not a kid anymore! " Bun-Bun grumbly said. 

Cassius was not affected by the other's mood at all. He has met Bun-Bun for the first time when Shianl came to inquire about the child's parents. The little kid at that time was small and adorable, clinging to Shianl like a frightened rabbit, though, for Cassius he is still as adorable as ever. As someone from Zeldia bloodline, there was no way Bun-Bun would grow this big in just a hundred years. If he hadn't shapeshifted himself to look older, Bun-Bun would be as small as a seven years human child.

He hated his body that couldn't grow faster and forced a magician to change his appearance to look older. Although he perfectly managed to fool people and pretend to be a mature man, both Lennox and Cassius know what type of a crybaby he is.

" If you aren't a kid then why drink my blood instead of taking a Servant? "

" I- I just didn't find any tasty person "

Cassius dared not to tease him more, Bun-Bun has bowled his eyes out a couple of days ago when he heard that Lennox was nearly attacked by lightning, if he does any more he would start crying again. Cassius sat on the couch and extended his arm towards the younger man. Bun-Bun obediently followed, held the familiar and sturdy arm, and bit it.

The room was silent except for Bun-Bun's sucking noises. After a good while, Cassius spoke with an indifferent yet solemn tone.

" Ashel, I heard that there is a little girl who roams under Emperor Sitia. Does she perhaps have brown hair, green eyes, a baby face and named Maitea? "

Bun-Bun didn't think much of it and answered honestly:" you mean lady Everly? Lord said she is general Egerton's sister, but unlike him, she is super cute and fluffy! "

Cassius's eyes shone with a cold light. He seemed to calculate something and only came around when he noticed Bun-Bun wiping his forearm with a handkerchief. Cassius touched his little brother's head dotingly as he said.

" would Ashel be upset if I took the young lady away? "

Bun-Bun raised his head and looked at Cassius with innocent eyes, blinked as he said:" But lord has already adopted lady Everly, would brother still want to take her? "

"...."

Adopted her...

Lord Shianl....?

Oh FUCK!

He almost killed himself in the worst way possible!

Take her away? DON'T FUCK WITH ME!!! I would be turned to a grilled bat before even touching a strand of her hair! 

Shianl is extremely EXTREMELY possessive, and Cassius has seen the dark side of such feelings a couple of times. The first time was when a rock fell on his son, Elbadis, and he started crying. The next second the entire mountain disappeared. 

' the fucker wiped a damn mountain with every living being on it just to coax a child, what a psycho ' 

You don't have to hurt them for the moutherfucker to lose his guts. There was this random dude on the street who stared at one of Shianl's wives for a little too long, the man got his manhood cut off, dipped in Flesh worms and shoved it down his throat. 

' that was my first time seeing someone dying from deep-throating himself while worms digging out of his eyes ' 

remembering that sight, Cassius shuddered as he made a decision to stay as far away, from that guy's things, as possible. 

*****

While Cassius kept cursing him for hours, This honourable Shianl was busy finding a wife. 

" So....Your highness wants someone tamed, cute, funny, smart yet innocent, not too tall, not too short, not thin, not fat, trained body, black hair, sharp eyes with a mole on their face. Is that all? " 

The more Mimori listened the more he felt that Lennox was describing a 'certain' someone. Blood boiled and nerves popped on Mimori's face, if not for Teneale holding him, he would have long since bounced at Lennox. 

" Well, that's it for now " 

For now....? 

Mimori really couldn't hold in and blurted in annoyance.

" Prince Lennox is young with a long life ahead of him, Why rushing to find a wife at such age? " 

Lennox raised his brows and looked at him as if looking at a rock on the side of the road. Worthless of his attention. Mimori was buffled and didn't know what to say against such a gaze. At that moment, a familiar screech sounded from outside. It has been an hour since Everly and Augustus went out to play and it seems that they are back now. 

A large shadow landed under the terrace, shaking the ground along. Chan-Chan extended her wing to help the two jump into the terrace. Everly jumped first, she disastrous with dirt and grass all over her, Augustus, on the other hand, looked as neat as before with a little bit of grass on his knees. 

God knows what they did to look so bright and excited. Seeing their sparkling faces, Lennox's face eased a bit. 

" Done fooling around? Go wash up, dinner will be served soon " 

' you want us to eat with you? like hell!! we are running away as soon as we could ' 

Teneale fixed her expression and said to Lennox respectfully:" Your highness, please pardon us for being rude- "

" So you know you are being rude " 

"...." 

They can't refute him, can they? 

In the end they had to endure the tastless meal with the devilish pheromones-leaking prince. As for Augustus, perhaps because he was in a good mood, he didn't pick a fight with Lennox and obediently responded to the other's teasing (flattering). 

1. type of worms, the size of an adult's thumb, that feeds on flesh and bones at high speed. Usually used to get rid of corpses as to not leave a trace.
2. (Ashel) is not Bun-Bun's name. Lennox, in the past, usually talks in divine language and he calls Bun-Bun 'little one' which is heard as Ashel. people thought it was his name and kept calling him Ashel.
