(Chapter 13) Alice

After entering the lounge, Midas deeply bowed before saying "Your Highness, I am here to bring your slave to you and collect the payment for her"

"Of course" Amon replied while slowly standing up from his chair and throwing a little bag he took out of his pockets towards Midas.

Midas, who caught the bag, was confused at first, but his expression changed rapidly after he opened the bag.

Inside the bag were beautiful small crystals shimmering in a blue hue while constantly leaking a little bit of Mana.

However, before Midas could say anything Amon opened his mouth and said "Obviously I don't carry 100 000 cold coins with me when to attend an auction on a whim, so this will have to do otherwise I need to send someone after I am back to the palace to bring the gold."

However, Midas immediately said "No that won't be necessary your Highness, I am more than fine with you paying in magic crystal I can easily sell them to any magus at the next auction and would probably even make a little profit"

Magic crystal were crystal found deep underground in Mana rich environment and similar to normal gems, they needed a lot of time to be formed and are pretty precious.

Almost every magus or apprentice needed these for all sort of thing from formations and artifacts which used them as fuel, they were also quite useful to create a high Mana environment that would help one to meditate more efficient.

Therefore, they were easy to sell but hard to get, even Amon only found a few of them in his room, so naturally Midas was quite happy.

The 10 magic crystals Amon gave him would sell in auction for at least 10 000 gold per crystal, but most likely more if more than one bidder wants them.

"If that's all I am on my way" said Amon while walking past Midas gesturing Sophie to follow him before he stopped in front of the vampire and looked at her closely.

Amon had to admit that she was indeed beautiful, and the way she looked at him with her pretty crimson eyes full of defiance had quite a unique charm.

"Hello my name is Amon what is your name ? He asked in a curious tone.

However, instead of an answer, the vampire challenged his gaze before spitting him right in the face.

Stolen story; please report.

Shook was written on everyone's faces after witnessing how the slave spat on the face of the crown prince and Midas immediately said trying to calm down the prince "Your Highness the spell that enslaves her is still set on me, after we change the master she won't be able to do such things anymore. If you want, we can change it right away, all I need would be a drop of your blood".

However, Amon simply started smiling, still locking on the vampire while her saliva slowly flowed down his cheek before it suddenly turned deep black for an instant before silently disappearing into nothing. Without facing Midas or Sophie and still looking at the vampire he just said in an indifferent voice "Everyone out".

Midas and his guard immediately bowed and left while Sophie stood rather perplexed not knowing if she was meant to go or not until Amon addressed her and said "You can also leave for today Sophie, you were by my side since yesterday, take the rest of the day off just come back to my room tomorrow morning".

In response to that, Sophie simply bowed and excused herself before she left.

She had a very uneventful life until now, but so much had happened since yesterday that she was quite happy about getting a little break for herself.

Yet while she was leaving she cast a last slightly jealous gaze towards the vampire who apparently entered a staring contest with the prince by now.

A short moment later, Sophie closed the door behind after she left, leaving Amon and the vampire alone in the lounge. "So now that we are alone, how about another try. What is your name, vampire ?"

However, like before instead of answering the vampire spat at him once more, yet unlike before this time nothing hit him instead it just turned black in the middle of the air before disappearing.

"We can do that the whole day if you want to, it won't hit me unless I allow it, little girl." Amon said while a mischievous smile adorned his face.

Hearing that the vampire yelled at him while gritting her teeth "IAM NOT A LITTLE GIRL HUMAN"

Amon simply replied "Well compared to me, you are, I know that vampires don't age after a certain point in their growth is reached unlike with humans however like you, I am much older than I look. As far as I can see from the purity of your blood you are comparable to a rank 1 magus, so If I had to guess I would say you are between 100 and 200 years old."

After Amon said these words, the atmosphere in the room grew heavy, and the vampire stared at him with a complicated gaze.

Until now, nobody was able to see her true strength, the most magi thought she was still comparable to an apprentice.

Initially, she wanted to escape and find a way back to her planet without the magi noticing.

With her strength and a bit of work she would be able to break free from the slave spell because it was designed for an apprentice, so magi or beings with the same strength would be able to break them on their own with a bit of time.

However, this human before her saw through her in an instant, so he definitely wasn't a simple apprentice. "Who are you" she asked him.

However, Amon just replied while smiling at her, "Isn't it basic courtesy to introduce yourself first before asking someone else who they are, little vampire?"

After thinking for a while and realizing that she wasn't in the best condition right now because that human in front of her could see through her like an open book, she finally answered, "My name is Alice, and I am a Baron ranked vampire from Evandel."
