As the food was going to take some time to prepare, Julia decided to quickly introduce us around the manor for a bit, giving us a small trip around the first and second floor of the manor, it was as big as I remember, it felt like a whole labyrinth from inside to be honest. She seemed happy to see us, and back then she only saw Emeraldine and Partner, but now she was able to see Lucifer as well, which she found rather handsome, as every time he spoke to her, she would blush a bit and avert her gaze shyly. I guess my man is really a handsome stud, isn’t he? That’s a dragon’s charm after all, heh.

“Since you’ve come here, I assume you came to stay for a while, right? I got a lot of work to give you, Maria. I am still investigating things about the two people you said you wanted to meet… Any info about them seems to have been taken away from the archives of the Kingdom, and my ability to research is limited…” Sighed Julia.

“As long as you can help me in that regard I’ll help you out as well, I am interested in helping you make of this place a better place… Of course, as long as you pay.” I said with a greedy grin. “And well, we’ll travel back and forth sometimes, going back to my territory to manage it and meet my people, so I won’t be able to stay all the time here but I’ll leave Familiars.”

“That’s good enough, as long as you don’t go back and forth so frequently…” She said. “Anyways, you can stay in my residence! We got a lot of rooms so feel free to pick any, just ask the maids for a bathroom, there are several ones spread over the house. We can enjoy breakfast, lunch, and dinner together if you want to, but you’re free to wander around the duchy whenever you got free time, but I doubt you’ll have as much free time, there are many things going on right now, the attempted assassination won’t be the first and last one…” Julia seemed overly serious, I suppose things had escalated quickly into something dangerous. Vampires were plotting her death and had already attempted to assassinate her with a special assassin with abilities that could even ignore magic barriers.

“There are many things we must discuss after all, the Vampires are once more on the move. It deeply saddens me that this family of once honorable Majin have turned into such devils…” Sighed Lucifer.

“I-Indeed… You’re right.” Said Julia. “But do you know Vampires or something, Sir Lucifer?” Wondered Julia while approaching Lucifer a bit and looking at him with shiny eyes. Lucifer felt a bit overwhelmed, as he decided to not reveal any more information.

“Not so much, I only read… in books about their past before the fall of the Demon King. They once served the Demon King as… a Family of noble knights.” Said Lucifer.

“I see… So Vampires ended devolving into such vile acts, but for what purpose? To survive in our society?” Wondered Julia. “I have also heard rumors about Vampires getting involved in slavery, the mass production of strange black potions that strengthen people but also turn them insane, and also in the illegal experimentation of bodies and other things in the Duchy of Benettina…” Sighed Julia.

“Indeed, that’s the case, we were there when it happened.” I said. “It was exposed that the duke of that duchy was holding dozens of enslaved people underground and with the help of the Vampires, they were using them as experimental subjects to make chimeras… Then there was a woman that showed up, or well, a specter… She punished them for what they did, greatly surprising everyone.”

“Oh! So you were there when it happened?! Is it true that the ghost of the Dark Witch, the woman that my uncle beheaded here was the one that did everything?! It has been circulating all around the Kingdom that she had come back from the dead to avenge her death and her family…” Sighed Julia. “The death of my damned uncle might had been by the hands of her, as it is suspected due to the trails of phantasmal energies.”

“I think it was… Erm, I am not sure, it was all pretty confusing… But the nobles were indeed tortured and died after that… She left a long-standing impression, I guess.” I sighed. I pretended to not know anything and it seemed to work well, I am quite the deceiver, heh.

Ding!

What? There’s even a numerical value based on how much I can deceive someone? Now I feel a bit bad for the little Julia, but I cannot really tell her that I am the actual… Witch. She already found it weird that I asked her to investigate about the Witch’s little son and her aunt, which I gave her the excuse that it was because my family was indebted to them and I wanted to help them and pay for such a debt… She believed it of course, I am really a good deceiver, huh.

“I see, so that’s how it is… I am glad you’re here to help out, Maria, you seem to be a good person and I think I can trust you.” Said Julia.

“Of course! You can call me Marie or Maria, although I am named Marie, they often call me Maria anyways.” I said with a forced smile which she didn’t noticed to be forced.

Ding!

[The Level of [Deceiver: Lv1] has increased to Level 2]
