My Yandere Wives are Transcendents-Chapter 311: Everyone is just an Idiot...

"Let's begin the ra--"

"Oh, oh, oh! Wait, Asher Eli...." Lucian immediately halted Eli's words and nudged Carter to speak up.

"My son is yet to revive, and he needs time to prepare," Carter said with a serious and somewhat saddened expression, showing concern for his son's physical well-being.

"Hmm... Then tomor--"

"Tomorrow is too long, and the poor people who came here to witness a duel cannot possibly stay overnight. The cost of staying for a single night in the Nex is more than what they could earn in that time" Lucian interjected, feigning a pained voice as if he himself would suffer from the delay.

Hearing Lucian's words, the impoverished spectators couldn't help but cry tears of happiness, believing that Lucian truly cared for the less fortunate people like them...

"Well, if that's the problem, I could arrange so--" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Before Vampire Queen could boast about her wealth and extend her generosity, Lucian quickly interrupted, his forehead dotted with sweat,

"L-Let's have the race tonight."

"Hmm? Night?" Eli furrowed his brow, contemplating the unexpected proposal.

"Night?" Adriana echoed the sentiment, her thoughts racing to comprehend the sudden change.

"Yes," Lucian nodded, and Carter followed suit, acknowledging the urgency of the situation.

Adriana glanced at Eli, who had a pondering expression, 'Night... ah? I am not sure what they're planning, but dealing with the problem as soon as possible might be better...' After deep contemplation, he nodded in agreement.

"Okay," Adriana agreed, preparing to leave.

"We are going to have lunch; why don't you come with us, Vampire Queen?" Lucian extended an invitation, attempting to ease the tension.

But,

"I am not hungry!" she declared, maintaining her stern demeanour, and left.

Soon, everyone started to depart from the arena, carrying with them a mix of emotions and anticipation for the upcoming night.

"TTTTRRRRRR!!"

"THAT FUCKING BITCH!!"

"...."

"TTTRRRRRRR!!"

"THAT WORTHLESS BASTARD!!"

"..."

"TTRRRRRRNNGGG!!"

"HOW DARE HE LAY HANDS ON ME WITH HIS FILTHY TOUCH!!"

"..."

"TTTRRRRRRR!!!"

"I'M GOING TO MAKE THAT BASTARD AND THAT WRETCH PAY!!!"

"...L-Lucia--"

"FUCK YOU, BASTARD!! IF YOU HAD JUST FOLLOWED THE SHIT I GAVE YOU, I WOULDN'T HAVE FACED HUMILIATION FROM A MERE COMMONER!!!"

"..." Carter Theo's face turned bright red in anger, but he restrained himself.

What could he do? He was the one who had sought help from Lucian, after all.

Swallowing his anger, Carter waited for Lucian to calm down.

Lucian grabbed another bottle of wine, taking a swig before emphatically breaking it against the wall and shouting in frustration.

After about an hour, Lucian's anger subsided, and he looked at Carter, who was silently staring at the outside view.

Both Lucian and Carter found themselves within the luxurious confines of the Royal Restaurant on the 100th floor.... a space exclusively reserved for royalties.

"How is your son?" Lucian calmly asked, as if he had finally released all his pent-up frustration and anger.

Hearing Lucian's composed voice, Carter turned and replied, "He is currently resting..."

"I see..." Lucian nodded, and a brief silence hung between them.

"You totally fucked up our plan, right?" Lucian's straightforward words made Carter feel a twinge of embarrassment and awkwardness.

Observing Carter's discomfort, Lucian couldn't help but snort. "'Snort,' because of you, I got involved now.... Don't you have a little brain to follow my simple plan... ah".

Gritting his teeth, Carter managed to control his inner anger. He understood the continued importance of having Lucian's assistance in capturing the Mythical Beast.

"And your son. Is he really an idiot, just like you or what?

Can't he just use his brain instead of blatantly jumping into asking for a duel?

If he at least used his messed-up brain, I wouldn't have to involve myself in this mess!

You and your son are nothing but idiots who always think above everyo—" Lucian's words finally snapped Carter.

"Lucian, you aren't doing it for free!!!" Carter retorted with anger, his voice resonating with a mixture of frustration and urgency.

Seeing Carter's visible anger, Lucian knew he had reached the limit, so he calmed down with an internal 'Tsk'.

'Gulp'

'Gulp'

After that, both silently drank their wine. The atmosphere in the room became tense, each sip echoing the underlying tension between them.

After a minute or so,

"Are you sure my son could defeat that mortal?" Carter asked, a hint of worry in his eyes.

If the world knows that the King of Theos Kingdom is doubting his own son against a mortal.... they only laugh in pity and betrayal to their King.

"Of course, I've already collected the data we need..... Here," Lucian affirmed, his demeanor radiating composure, and confidence, as he smoothly revealed a compact suitcase.

Carter's eyes glistened with anticipation as he scrutinized the suitcase before him. Upon opening it, a dazzling light flooded his vision, temporarily blinding him. After a brief moment of adjusting to the brilliance emanating from the contents of the suitcase, he exclaimed with satisfaction,

"Good!!" Carter muttered before closing it. A subtle smile formed on his face, a blend of relief and satisfaction at the promising contents of the suitcase.

Lucian observed Carter's happy expression, and inside, he couldn't help but smirk at the satisfaction of manipulating the situation to his advantage.

"But, man, I never thought you would bet your daughter... Do you truly trust my son? Do you believe he would win this?" Carter asked, a perplexed expression on his face as he grappled with the notion of Lucian staking his daughter's life on the outcome of the race.

Even he had little doubt of winning after seeing Asher Eli's skills...

"Tsk, do you think I have an option?

That woman already knows we were pushing too much, and if we pushed even further, then everything we have planned would collapse. That's the reason she even used my daughter to test whether I would back down or push further" Lucian explained, irritation evident in his tone.

He felt cornered into betting on his daughter, a move he would never have made under different circumstances.

"I see..." Carter nodded in understanding. Then, a sly smile appeared on his face as he proposed, "Why don't we arrange a marriage betwe--"

"BOOM!!"

Lucian slammed his hand on the table, his glare silencing Carter immediately. The mere suggestion of a marriage bet seemed to touch a nerve, and Lucian's anger radiated in the room.

Carter internally clicked his tongue, realizing that his son didn't even have any options. Nonetheless, he asked something that further irritated Lucian,

"What about your kingdom's Hero? Where is he?"

"ggrrrrttt." A palpable killing intent leaked from Lucian as the mere image of Alexander, the Hero of Dawn Kingdom, had interacted with the sentinel a few days ago and soon disappeared.

Lucian searched everywhere in the Dawn Kingdom, but Alexander was not available. He even dispatched adventurers from the guild to check in other kingdoms, but...

'Where the hell is that bastard?' Lucian clenched his fist in anger.

Both Lucian and Alexander had some unfinished business regarding Luna Dawn...

"He is busy training," Lucian lied, masking the real concern he harboured about Alexander's mysterious disappearance.

"Hmm... So, he is the one who's going to marry your dau--"

"I.will.fucking.kill.before.anyone.touch.my.daughter" Each word expressed Lucian's intense killing intent, a declaration of his unwavering.... protectiveness?

Finally, Carter understood that it was not Lucian who was protective of his daughter; instead, he was protective of his daughter who was going to become Lucian's wife.

From Carter's perspective, there was nothing wrong with preserving the purity of the bloodline, especially considering that she was a Saintess. Marrying her could bring numerous benefits.

Carter also harboured a desire to marry a saintess, but the one he had in mind... He couldn't force a relationship with that psychopathic woman!

Sweating at the thought of her face, Carter couldn't help but shudder in fear. He would prefer marrying a commoner over tying the knot with a psychopathic woman!!

"Anyhow, I've fulfilled my part of the deal. Now, it all depends on your son!! If he loses, then I will point you..." Lucian's words carried a hint of warning, emphasizing the consequences if Carter's son failed to secure victory in the upcoming race.

Carter nodded. After his brother's death, he initially contemplated forcing Eli to give up the Mythical beast, but uncertain of its success, he sought assistance from another Kingdom's King. Experience stories on novelbuddy

Upon hearing the 'sad predicament', Lucian immediately proposed an idea that not only benefited Carter but also his son.... and himself.

Their plan involved assessing Asher Eli's fighting style and power. To do this, they needed a punching bag and..... That was Kayden.

By enticing him with some lovely and manipulating words they pulled Kayden.

Kayden became the chosen one.... a mere tool to gauge and record Eli's skills and talents.

Additionally... if possible, they aimed to provoke Vampire Queen, inciting her interference in the duel.

They hoped that her involvement would lead to punishment, aided by the council members. However, both Lucian and Carter were aware that there was only a 30% chance of Nex Academia taking action, considering Vampire Queen's significant status than any of them.

She was a Ruler of a single continent unlike them who divided the Sapien continent and ruled each kingdom.

Their primary objective was to test the waters, whether it working or not.... their aim didn't get affected and as anticipated, the council members backed off.

The ultimate goal remained unchanged: King Theo must race or fight against Asher Eli.

In return, Lucian sought to disgrace Asher Eli and acquire a Mythical Beast for research purposes. Having such a creature in the Sapien Kingdom would bolster their military power against other continents.

Carter willingly agreed to the collaboration.

"If My son, King Theo triumphs against Asher Eli, then we would get the Mythical Beast and...

....The world will come to know that a Hero was just an imagination created by the gods!" Carter muttered.

"Yes, those Heroes were nothing more than illusions, unnecessary in our era" Lucian seconded with a smirk.

To tell the truth, both Kings truly hated the appearance of Heroes...

Unbeknownst to the two kings, a pair of mesmerizing sky-blue eyes stared at the suitcase and their interactions before mysteriously vanishing into the void.

"Well, then I am leaving. I have to show this to my so" Carter declared with an enthusiastic smile, picking up the suitcase before departing.

"Okay, tell him I wish for his victory!" Lucian responded with a diplomatic smile.

"Yeah," Carter acknowledged, leaving the room with a sense of anticipation.

After a few moments, Lucian's initial smile subtly transformed into a haughty expression.

He leisurely rose from the table and approached the window, offering a commanding view of the world below. His gaze penetrated the hustle and bustle of the miniature figures and diminutive houses, evoking a feeling of superiority as if he were a deity surveying his domain.

The Bugs!! and....The God!!

His eyes slowly moved towards the direction where the Divisions of Nex presented.

Lucian's eyes meticulously studied the Division of Nex, consisting of six imposing buildings that symbolized each division's prowess.

However, his focus extended beyond these structures.... toward a forest designated for hunting. Deep within the dense vegetation, a flickering light caught his discerning eye.

Lucian's gaze remained fixed on the pulsating glow, a unique spectacle visible only from this particular location and floor within Nex Academia.

For over a minute, he immersed himself in silent contemplation, his eyes unwaveringly focused on the mesmerizing play of light in the heart of the forest.

In a moment of muttered reflection, he uttered, "Carter... Idiot. His son... Idiot. Idiots... Everyone is just an idiot...."

A sardonic smirk adorned his features.

'Knock, Knock'

"Come in!" Lucian said, glancing over his shoulder as he lowered his pants.

"Hello, sir. You asked for special service, right Dear Sir~?" The sultry voice of the attendant filled the room.

"Yes, Milady, Come!!" Lucian beckoned with a sly grin.

After that, only the echoes of passionate moans reverberated within the confines of the 100th floor, an intimate symphony unheard by anyone.....
