I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic.

Chapter 414: His Majesty Burns' Mission
Burns House, in the reception room,

Different from the mysterious and dark appearance of the castle, this reception room is filled with a classic and elegant atmosphere. In the spacious space, soft lighting sprinkles on every inch of the exquisite decoration, creating a quiet and comfortable atmosphere.

On the surrounding walls, carefully selected paintings are like traces of history, telling the past glory and stories. One of the portraits is particularly eye-catching, occupying the center of a wall, as if it is the focus of the entire space.

The background of this portrait is this castle. The middle-aged man in the picture is wearing gorgeous black clothes. There seems to be a hint of mystery and darkness hidden under his handsome face. He holds a scepter decorated with gold and black patterns in his right hand and looks into the distance.

Li Si looked at the portrait in front of him with great interest, his fingers gently groping on the bronze frame of the portrait.

He soon found his target. The signature on the frame recorded the name of the portrait's artist, the time of painting, and the subject of the portrait.

This was a portrait that the first Duke of Burns commissioned when he accepted the title of King of Bolin more than 250 years ago.

More than two hundred and fifty years ago, the first Duke of Burns?

Li Si thought about it, and he learned from Marion that the legendary vampire, [Frostblood Prince] Burns, was the big shot who sent Marion to find Angela.

At that time, Marion also explained that if anyone wanted to find Angela, they could go to the Dukedom of Burns in the Kingdom of Bolin.

Moreover, Marion also stated at the time that this [Frostblood Prince] had an extremely long lifespan, and even walked in the Gaia world as a follower of Cain, the ancestor of the blood clan.

In other words, the so-called first Duke of Burns is most likely the [Prince Frostblood] himself?
Li Si noted down the face of the handsome middle-aged man in the portrait before him. Since he wanted to visit His Majesty, he naturally had to pay more attention to him.

Unless a legendary being deliberately changes his appearance, the appearance of a legendary being will not change with the passage of time.

In a sense, the legendary strongmen have begun to break away from the realm of living beings and started to climb to a higher level.

"but."

Li Si touched his chin and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I always feel that Marion seems to be much older than His Majesty Burns."

Li Si came here not aimlessly, of course.

After coming out of the elf settlement, his next goal was to find Angela.

According to Augustus, it seems that Angela should be in the city of Arcot at this time, not in the Dukedom of Burns.

This saved Li Si a lot of trouble.

Although he asked Augustus to tell Angela not to leave Akote City for the time being, Li Si did not put all his hopes on Augustus.

After all, at this sensitive time, Li Si did not want anyone other than the elves to know of his existence, fearing that others would know his name from Augustus.

Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case!

So instead of telling Augustus his name, they chose to leave a special positioning mark directly on his body.

So now, Li Si followed the mark left on Augustus and came directly to the castle of the Burns family in the city of Akote.

Fortunately, when Li Si walked into the castle under the guidance of the waiter, he could vaguely feel Angela's presence.

Compared with before, Angela was undoubtedly much stronger. The aura of pure blood and darkness was obviously much stronger, which even made Li Si secretly frightened.

Angela is truly worthy of being the one who inherited the legacy of the god Cain. She has not wasted any time in the past year or so, and the extent of her strength improvement is terrifying.

Li Si thought of the cute little white bat. She was greedy, cute and easy to fool. As long as there was food, Li Si would knead her body however he wanted.

I don’t know how Angela is doing now?

At this moment, Li Si keenly heard the sound of "thump thump thump" coming from outside the door, as if someone was running towards him quickly.

"Lis!"

The door was pushed open and a white figure rushed in and crashed into Li Si's arms.

"Hmm~"

The huge impact force made Li Si take two steps back and look down in confusion.

I saw a girl in a thin red pajamas hugging his chest tightly, her long silver hair cascading down like a waterfall under the light, soft and shiny.

Her eyes sparkled with excitement, as if they contained endless stars, dazzling and charming. Her face was like an exquisite porcelain doll, her skin was as white as jade, and with a faint blush, she looked even more beautiful and charming.

Especially, feeling the unusual weight and softness on his chest, Li Si was indeed a little caught off guard.

The girl in front of me has a very similar aura to Angela, and her face is extremely similar, but the other changes are too big, right?
If Angela was a cute little girl under ten years old before, now she has become a beautiful girl of seventeen or eighteen years old with infinite charm.

"Angela?"

Li Si didn't move, just looked at the silver-haired girl in his arms and asked tentatively.

"Uh-huh, what's wrong Li Si?"

Angela had a bright smile on her face. If this scene was seen by the noble boys in Arcot City who were pursuing Angela, they might collapse due to self-doubt.

Who would have known that the cold-hearted girl who appeared at the top aristocratic party of the Bolin Kingdom would also smile like this.

But Li Si didn't know this. After getting Angela's confirmation, he closed his eyes.

He needed to slow down.

He also thought that Angela would change, but this scene was too shocking!

No, Angela, didn’t you go to accept Cain’s inheritance and officially become the Son of God?
The side effect of accepting the inherited power is super evolution of appearance?

At this moment, Li Si felt something light in his arms and opened his eyes.

The figure of the girl in front of him had disappeared, and a cute white bat was flapping its wings gracefully and flying in front of Li Si.

Angela is now obviously a whole circle bigger than the little bat before. She looks at Li Si with her bright eyes, but she still looks very cute.

Angela flew around Li Si, then stopped over Li Si's head. She used her little paws and wings to nudge Li Si's hair, with a peaceful expression on her face, and lay there comfortably.

Sure enough, it is most comfortable to stay on Li Si’s head!

Although Angela has grown a lot, she can still lie on Li Si's head.

Li Si noticed that Angela's actions were also somewhat helpless. This guy had always liked to stay on his head and shoulders, just acting as Li Si's bodyguard.

It was also the appearance of Lisa that made Angela spend most of her time with Lisa.

Li Si shook his head slightly, leaned back on the sofa, and said with a smile:

"Angela, how are you doing?"

"I'm so bored!"

Angela's voice was still soft, but it could be seen that there seemed to be deep resentment in it.

"It's all your fault. I listened to you and followed Marion to Lord Burns' place, but there was nothing delicious there."

"I only have bread and vegetable soup every day!"

"Only Marion would bring me something delicious when he comes back from outside, otherwise I would feel so uncomfortable."

Angela used her little paws to play with Li Si's hair, venting her dissatisfaction.

"Haha, is that so?"

Li Si laughed and started to laugh.

You know, Angela received the inheritance as the son of God of Cain, which is an opportunity that many people would love to have.

Who would have thought that Angela would be so unhappy because there was no delicious food.

But this is normal. This is the homebody bat that Li Si is familiar with, who just eats and waits for death.

Li Si still remembers the surprise he felt when he first learned that Angela did not suck blood and preferred human food.

It seems that the vampires have different interests, and Marion seems to like food very much.

"Li Si, have you brought any delicious food now?"

"I'm hungry!"

Angela tickled Li Si and asked in a tender voice.

"I'm tired of eating the food from Bolin Kingdom!"

"I have some."

Li Si thought about it, took out some exquisite pastries from the storage ring and placed them on the small table in front of him until the entire table was filled.

Because the Kingdom of Bolin is close to the Forest of Elves, the local diet is mainly based on a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as rice. The country is rich in resources, but there are very few pastries such as cakes and muffins.

Before setting off, Li Si stuffed a lot of special pastries made in his own mansion into the storage ring.

Because the Duke's Castle in Porto Darrow has not yet been completed, not much preparation has been made.

However, because the Kane family's chefs have all been trained by Li Si, and with the special kitchen utensils specially made by Li Si, the pastries they make are quite good.

Anyway, Li Si has no shortage of space rings now, so he set up a special area to store these foods.

Li Si hadn't enjoyed much yet, so he took it out and gave it to the very hungry Angela.

"Oh hoo! That's great!"

"Aww!"

Angela flew down from Li Si's head, pounced on a piece of strawberry cake on the table, and started eating it in big mouthfuls.

Just like before, Angela felt that it was more enjoyable to eat in bat form, and buried her entire little head in the white cream.

Li Si helplessly looked at Angela who was eating heartily. He had to swallow the questions he wanted to ask for the time being. He decided to wait until she finished eating before asking.

Leaning on the soft sofa, Li Si watched Angela enjoying the exquisite pastries and smiled faintly.

No matter what, it was enough that Angela looked in good condition, and it was worth it for her to let Angela follow Marion to the Kingdom of Bolin.

Dangdang~
While Angela was enjoying her meal, there was a knock on the door.

"Lord Angela, I have something to ask you."

"come in!"

The little bat frowned humanely, but put down the pastry in front of him and looked up and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man pushed the door and walked in. It was Augustus, whom Li Si had met a few days ago.

"Mrs. Angela?"

Augustus walked in, but didn't see Angela. There was only Li Si sitting on the sofa, smiling at him, and the table was already full of pastries.

Where is Lady Angela?

Did I clearly hear the adult’s voice just now?
Augustus was somewhat confused and looked at Li Si warily.

He arrived in Arcot City yesterday, one day earlier than Lis and Cecil. Augustus, who still remembered the words of the man in black, came here directly without a break.

He didn't know the relationship between that person and Angela. Although the person sounded like a friend of Angela, who could be sure? What if he was planning to do something bad to Angela?
It was obvious that the man was very powerful, so Augustus came here in a hurry and wanted to meet Angela.

But unfortunately, Lady Angela was still sleeping and had not woken up.

Although Augustus was very anxious, there was nothing he could do.

As a result, he just heard from the maid that someone came to visit Lady Angela, and Lady Angela had already gotten up. Augustus, who was worried that something might happen, rushed over.

As a result, although he clearly heard Angela's voice, he did not see Angela when he entered the door. This made Augustus, who had just become a vampire, a little anxious.

"Augustus, what's going on?"

Angela's voice rang out in the room again, and at the same time, a white object in the pastry on the table moved.

Augustus looked down and saw a cute little white bat looking at him with a somewhat unhappy look in its eyes.

Anyone who disturbs her from enjoying her food is annoying, even her family members.

"Mrs. Angela?"

Augustus hesitated, his eyes told him that the white bat in front of him was the Blood Queen Angela whom he served, but the noble and cold image of the queen in his mind made him unwilling to believe it.

It was only in the last month or so that Augustus became a vampire and was transformed into a blood clan.

Unlike Angela who is a natural vampire, Augustus needs to slowly become familiar with his abilities, and he is not yet able to transform into a bat state.

This is also the reason why he didn't react immediately.

"August, huh?"

Li Si said with a smile, looking at the boy in front of him who was obviously in a daze.

"It seems like you didn't bring what I asked you to bring before. Please bring it as soon as possible next time."

"You you are that person!"

Augustus was a little confused. Could this familiar voice and the young man sitting on the sofa really be the man in black robe who saved his life before?

Looking at Lady Angela, it seemed that she was enjoying the pastries that this man had brought that she had never seen before.

They are so familiar with each other, are they really friends?
"If you have nothing else to do, Augustus, please go out first!"

The little bat became a little impatient and waved his little paws.

"Yes, Lady Angela!"

Augustus didn't know how to react for a moment, so he closed the door and walked out in a daze.

After Augustus went out, Li Si looked at Angela and said with a smile:

"If I'm not mistaken, this Augustus is also a vampire, and he is a vampire transformed by you."

"Yes."

Angela nodded nonchalantly, her eyes remaining on the table in front of her.

It’s not surprising that Li Si could guess what she was thinking, since he was used to it anyway.

When in [McGuire's Death Tomb], Li Si knew the secret about the lich McGuire but she never asked about it.

In her mind, Li Si was a very powerful wizard who seemed to know everything.

"I remember Marion said that there are very few vampires. I didn't expect that they could be transformed directly. Then why not let more vampires become vampires?"

Li Si was a little curious. After all, the existence of a supernatural race like the vampires was extremely secretive, and he had never heard of such an existence in his previous life.

Even Uncle Joyce didn't know much about the vampires.

"There's nothing we can do. The restrictions are very strict."

Angela stretched out her pink tongue and licked the cream on the edge of her mouth, and said without hiding anything:
"Lord Burns said that because of the temptation of those evil gods, once they directly suck the blood of other creatures, they will gradually become addicted to it and develop a blood-thirsty impulse to constantly seek blood."

"Their souls will gradually be infected by the power of corruption, and they will completely become creatures of darkness."

"Even Cain the First can't change this process."

"I can convert humans and vampires who have not yet sucked blood into vampires, but as long as they suck blood, they will be irreversibly degraded into vampires."

"Also, some evil gods covet the power of the vampires and Lord Cain, so the ancestor Cain asked me not to convert others into vampires at will."

Li Si nodded. He had vaguely guessed something from Marion's attitude towards vampires before, but he didn't expect it to be so complicated.

The relationship between vampires and blood races is somewhat like that between the Paladin and the Fallen Black Knight, two sides of the same coin.

However, there is actually a struggle between Cain, the ancestor of the blood clan, and some evil gods. It seems that there is a big secret hidden!

"That Augustus."

"I just met him on the way out of Lord Burns' place."

"I saw that he had just become a vampire and was struggling not to drink blood. I was just about to try my ability to transform into a vampire, so I helped him."

"I originally told him to be careful, but who knew he would keep following me."

Angela shook her head and didn't care too much about it.

"Ok."

Li Si didn't care too much about Augustus's affairs. He was more interested in the matter of transforming into a vampire.

From the performances of Augustus, Angela and Marion in the past, it can be seen that the blood clan is very powerful, especially when facing vampires, they have an overwhelming advantage.

You know, among the dark creatures, vampires are also quite common and difficult to deal with. Their strange blood spells and tenacious vitality make them even one of the representatives of dark creatures.

Perhaps it is because of this reason that the blood clan is targeted by those evil gods and lured into depravity and becoming vampires?

"Angela, have you met His Majesty Burns?"

Li Si asked Angela, which was also one of the purposes of his coming here.

"Lord Burns?"

When Angela heard the name, she raised her head slightly and looked at Li Si.

This name actually made Angela put down the food in her hand. It seems that Angela also respects this [Prince Frostblood] very much!

"Lord Burns, I have only met him once when I was receiving the inheritance. At other times when I asked to see him, he was sleeping in the coffin in the basement."

Thinking about the terrifying power she felt from that person, Angela still had some respect for him.

After all, she is much stronger than she is now!
Sleeping in a coffin
Li Si was a little shocked, but it was normal when he thought about it. For the vampires, it might be no different from the bed in the bedroom.

But judging from the situation, His Majesty is usually in a deep sleep?

Is this a common problem among vampires? Do they all like to sleep so much?
Li Si remembered the red pajamas Angela was wearing when she came to see him. It was obvious that Angela was also sleeping before he came.

"Can I ask to see His Majesty Burns?"

Li Si didn't say anything polite in front of Angela and asked directly.

He wanted to get more information about the Elf Royal Court from His Majesty Burns, the Frostblood Prince. After all, this legendary strong man had stayed in the Elf Forest for so long. Even if he was asleep most of the time, he should know some secrets that Li Si did not know.

Even for the elves, it is very likely that they know about this legendary powerful vampire.

After all, for the Elf Kingdom whose inheritance has not been broken through countless years, they have even experienced the era of the Magic Empire, so the existence of the vampires may not be a secret to them.

The sudden invitation from Elder Ricardo of the Ilithel family caught Li Si off guard. It was obvious that he would not tell Li Si and Cecilia more secrets about the Elf Royal Court.

Li Si didn't believe that the current state of the Elf King's Court was the same as he said, except for the bizarre death of the Sun Elves.

He needed more information to decide whether to follow the elven elder to the Elf King's Court.
“I really don’t understand this?”

Angela shook her head, but did not ask Li Si why he wanted to meet the legendary vampire.

She trusted Li Si, even more than His Majesty Burns and Marion.

"I can take you there, but maybe not right now."

Angela shook her head and said.

"why?"

Li Si was a little curious. He didn't expect that Angela, who slept in every day, would have anything to do.

"When I accepted the inheritance, Lord Burns asked me to leave Frostblood Castle and gave me a mission. I was not allowed to return until I completed it."

"Let me destroy all the vampires in the Bolin Kingdom, at least kill all the gold-level vampires."

"He said this is my final training. Once I complete it, I can get the final reward from him and leave Bolin Kingdom to find you, Li Si!"

"There is another mission, but you don't seem to be in a hurry at all. Were you sleeping before?"

Li Si looked at Angela and asked with a smile.

It is really a troublesome task to eliminate all the high-level vampires in the Kingdom of Bolin.

You know, the Kingdom of Bolin is different from the Kingdom of Fez. It is located on the border of the human kingdom and lacks constraints. The extraordinary creatures and forces hidden in the darkness are more rampant.

The Bolin Kingdom does not have enough power to clean up, and as long as those beings do not enter the territory of the Elf Kingdom, the elves will turn a blind eye to it.

In the Bolin Kingdom, there may even be more than one gold-level vampire.

"Who said that!"

Angela stood up with her tiny body, waving her little paws in the air and said:
"I worked very hard when I left Frostblood Castle, and I killed a lot of vampires!"

"That's when I met Augustus!"

"But later on, it was too troublesome to find those vampires. I searched for a long time but didn't find a single gold-level one!"

"Since Lord Burns's mission has no deadline, I will just come here to rest for a while!"

Listening to Angela's righteous tone, Li Si shook his head helplessly.

You are so worthy of it, Angela!
But speaking of this, Li Si actually has a clue in his hands.

Of the two vampires that were hunting down Augustus, Li Si also let go a silver-level vampire named Maureen and left a mark on her.

From what they said, Lord Andre was most likely a gold-level vampire.

Who knows, maybe we can follow the clues and catch all the vampires in the Bolin Kingdom in one fell swoop!
