“This way please?” the secretary, Suzan, said, guiding Margret, Micheal, and his supposed new girlfriend Bianca toward the meeting room.“Seriously… how dare he make me wait…” Margret complained.
“Madam… You know the rules Madam Aria and the CEO have set… It was all agreed upon before that no matter what, Crimson Pearl’s identity was supposed to remain secret especially from you until the contract was completely signed,” Suzan apologized as they reached the meeting room.
“WHAT? WHY?” Margret flared, making Micheal and Bianca frown.
“You will know right away…” Suzan said, opening the double-sided door and then stepping back immediately.
Margret scowled at Suzan then quickly entered and paused at the door.
“ABE? What are you doing here? WHAT THE FUCK IS HE DOING HERE?” she turned and asked Suzan as she pointed at the man sitting at the meeting table. Micheal and Bianca could finally see what was going on as she moved to the side.
“Ah…” Suzan didn’t continue.
“Holy Shit… Margret? I have every right to be here… What ARE YOU doing here?” Abe stood up, banged on the table, and asked.
“Mister Abe… Let me introduce you, this is Margret our vice president….” Suzan said, clearing her through. “Madam Margret, this is Mr. Abe Sanders, also known by his pen name, Crimson Pearl!”
“WHAT!” Both Abe and Margret said at the same time.
“YOU? CRIMSON PEARL? IMPOSSIBLE!!!” Margret began to yell. “How can this pervert idiot write novels like TIME IN HER LAP and TOUCHING THE UNTOUCHABLE?” Margret flared. “Abe didn’t even finish mid-school! He can’t be Crimson Pearl!” she added in a hysterical voice.
“SHUT UP!” Abe yelled. “I am Crimson Pearl whether you like it or not!” He said, “You are just a jealous bitch! I am doing honest work here to earn a living, not using my body to get all rich and important like you who forgot about her family the moment you got married!” he said with clear jealousy in his voice.
“WHAT'S WRONG WITH USING MY BODY TO ENTERTAIN MY HUSBAND? IT IS HONEST HARD WORK YOU KNOW! DO YOU KNOW HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO PLEASE VICTOR?” Margret flared back as Micheal and Bianca watched with strange looks in their eyes. “AND SINCE WHEN DID YOU AND YOUR BITCH SISTER CONSIDER ME FAMILY? LAST TIME I CHECKED YOU SOLD ME TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER JUST LIKE THAT NOVEL THAT…. AHHHHHHHHH!" Margret began to scream as if she realized something. "YOU DAMN BASTARD YOU HAD BEEN USING ME AS A MODEL FOR YOUR WORK!”
“SO WHAT IF I WAS? YOU ARE THE BITCHIEST GIRL I KNOW!” Abe scolded back.
“FUCK YOU!” Margret cursed angrily, she was clearly losing it. “SUZAN! REVOKE OUR AGREEMENT WITH HIM AND CANCEL ALL CONTRACTS!” Margret flared.
Hearing her, Micheal and Bianca looked at each other, they had no idea what was going on here, but it was clear that Margret and Abe hated each other.
“Sorry Madam… We can’t, The contract was written in a way that neither of the parties can cancel it!” Suzan apologized, “Madam Aria expected you to act like this if you knew that your cousin was Crimson Pearl, that’s why she told me not to tell you…”
“Damn it!” Margret cursed. “Just you wait… I will make Victor deal with you once he returns home …” she spat and quickly stormed out of the room while cursing in a low voice.
“Go do your best!” Abe smirked in a voice full of spite, “Regardless of whether you cancel the contract or not, I will get paid!” he said before looking at Suzan. “Since when did Margret become your Vice president?” he asked.
“Ah… It was about a month and a half ago,” Suzan said. “Don’t worry Master Abe, she is responsible for the Idol business, and has nothing to do with movies!” Suzan quickly said, as if trying to placate Abe.
“I am not worried…” Abe said with a smile. He clearly felt refreshed seeing that defeated look on Margret’s face. Money really changed how he saw the world. “Who those two might be?” he asked, noticing Bianca’s ample chest.
“Ah… My name is Micheal, and this is Bianca,” Michael quickly introduced. “We are Master Abe’s fans!” he added, taking out a print of Crimson Pearl’s first published book. TEARS FROM THE WRONG PLACE. “We hope to get Master Abe’s autograph!” he said.
“Of course…” Abe said, quickly grabbing a pen and signing the book directly. “I wonder if the two of you are free… You see, I am a little hungry, and after meeting that bitch Margret I don’t feel like eating alone…” he said, giving a wink to Bianca.
“Ah… Too bad we just ate…” Michael, who was also an old driver, noticed the wink and decided to withdraw. His usually useless intuition was telling him to retreat with his newly acquired girlfriend if he didn’t want to lose her.
“Ah. Come on… This will be fun!” Binaca interrupted him. “I want to discuss Master Abe’s new book with him…. “ she said, pulling at Michael's shirt cutely, sticking her body to his and rubbing it as she bit her lower lip.
“Ah…Well… Fine I guess… It is just a meal…” Micheal, who had a weakness against Bianca’s ample chest that rubbed against him, took a critical hit and was defeated immediately;. He was going to be there anyway, what was the worst that could happen.
…
A knock on the door startled the man napping in the dark room.
“Come in…” he said as he woke up then began to stretch his muscles while looking at the door.
It was his secretary, Janette who quickly flicked the light switch, activating the magical lamp.
“Master, we have news from the Von Weise family archipelago…” she said.
Hearing those words he woke up completely. “What happened? Did that poisonous bastard Yazal fall for it?” he quickly asked. He had been waiting for this news ever since the news about the Von Wesie’s family main island being engulfed with a dungeon reached him.
“Probably, according to Olaf, the heart had gone missing, and so did that bitch Tolin who works for him,” Janette explained. “No one else on the island has the sufficient authority to take it from its seal!”
“Good, I wish I could see his expression when he discovers that the heart is empty, well it would take years for him to fully extract the fake soul, and by that time it would be too late…” he said while smiling. “What about the third guardian?” he asked Janette.
“All the guardians are missing, but from the destruction and the blood traces left at the central chamber, in addition to the breaking of the hiding array, we can safely presume that he is dead with the rest!” she looked at the document in her hand and replied.
“Mmm… Good, he wouldn’t have guessed that the escape talisman we gave him was a fake… Like hell we would share the imperial heritage with a traitor like him!” the man chuckled, “I bet he had no idea that we knew he hid the real heart on that remote island!”
“Yes, master…” Janette nodded, “But… Are we sure that the Heart contains something valuable?” she asked.
“Most likely, Necklace died because of a curse, he wouldn’t have gotten it if he didn’t touch something that he shouldn't have.” the man said. “And by how he sealed his soul, it can only be either Authority points or an Imperial edict!”
“I understand!” she said.
“How is Axel doing? We need him to start our search operation on the island. If the heart were to be hidden in a pocket dimension, it would take a few years to find it without a full-scale excavation!”
“He had already been located by the family, Theodore is heading to check on him with Olaf as we speak,” she replied.
“Good…Make sure nothing happens to the kid. If it were not for that idiot Dick dying all of a sudden, we wouldn’t have had to go to such lengths in the first place… “
“Yes master!” she nodded with a smile.
…
Victor stealthily stepped out of the cauldron, making sure to activate all his disguise abilities to the max just in case. He promised himself to be extra careful after all!
Looking around he frowned. He and the cauldron were not in a vault, not even in some kitchen.
They were on top of a mountain of corpses surrounded by black smoke… Strange! This scene was very familiar.
Before Victor could fully comprehend what was going on he felt it… He felt like he was suffocating, his life was slowly slipping away as his body began to grow weaker and weaker. He was dying.
SHIT!
Without thinking, he quickly activated all his bloodlines to the max.
BOOOOM!
The black gas that had been infiltrating his body was all expelled in seconds allowing him to start to heal immediately.
Shit, this was close.
Victor cursed as he took two healing pills at once and began to look around. He was in that damn Death Gorge again!
How the hell did he get here? Wasn’t the Sun lord supposed to take the cauldron and hide it in his vault? Victor made sure to disguise its description to make it a SUPREME WINE CAULDRON before he hid in it? If it was too precious, he was worried that the lord would keep it with himself, so he had to just make it precious enough to keep around… But it was all for naught.
Could it be that the Sun lord didn’t like wine? Most likely not… He would have given it to someone else as a gift or something.
Victor pondered, he must have missed something allowing the Sun lord to suspect foul play. That guy didn’t take chances at all, throwing the cauldron into the gorge without a second thought. If Victor had to guess what it was, he would say it was that the Experience points that the lord got from killing that scapegoat demon were not proportionate to the power Victor showed.
Damn it… Why does this always happen to him? Well, at least he managed to get away.
Victor sighed as he began to look around, this was a different portion from where he was the last time, the death energy here was a lot denser, and all the corpses here were those of elves of all kinds… There were a lot of young ones between them.
Shit…
Could this be the Sun lord's favorite place to hide his crimes? Could there be any valuable things here?
Well, Victor didn’t have much time to ponder as he needed to go grab his sister away from that town of sick basterds, so he quickly held his cauldron and began the Vacuuming Operation Part II: THE SUN LORD'S DUMPSTER! He would go get Meril as soon as he finished with this place.
Watching as the cauldron got filled, Victor sighed. Unlike the area under the bridge, this place had no demons or Artifacts, just corpses after corpses of young elves. He couldn't help but notice that some of them even had bite marks on their arms…. Damn it, that Sun lord was truly a psychopath.
“Ah… What the....”
Just then he slipped a little then felt it, something caught his leg, making him turn and look.
It was a pale corpse demon that he seemed to have stepped on by mistake. It was biting hard on his leg as it tried to move away futilely.
Strange. Could demons survive here?
No wait…
Feeling it with his demonic bloodline, Victor quickly discovered that this thing was not a demon at all…
It was a living elven with very quiet heartbeats. Other than being very dirty, it was just too thin and pale that he almost mistook it for a corpse! Oh, and the child was a she… Just by taking one look, Victor could confirm that. The poor thing was wearing nothing.
How could she survive here? Could she be some kind of a monster? Victor's frowned as he quickly used his appraisal skill on her

BOOM
The status screen turned blue and then disappeared.
.
.
.
What the fuck just happened?
Victor frowned and quickly activated his appraisal again, but nothing appeared. He quickly looked at his status screen, but it was no longer there.
…
WTF? Did the system just crash? Why did creepy shit keep happening to him? Victor wondered as he tried to call all of his skills or connect to his slaves but nothing was working.
Could it be that…
; ;
BEEP
The status screen appeared again a split second later.
Victor sweetened as he quickly checked everything… It was all in order. Even his blood slaves were acting normal. What a relief!
Strange…. What happened? He wondered as he looked again at the elven girl who was still munching on his leg with her little teeth that didn’t have the strength to scratch his skin.

….
What kind of mindfuck was the system throwing at him?
Shit... Victor cursed as he pondered.
What did Duplicate Entry mean? This girl existed somewhere else right now?
Usually, one soul can have one entry in the system… Could she be a remnant of someone who split his soul like he did? No…Victor quickly shook his head. Whenever one soul occupied two bodies one would be considered the master while the other would be named an Avatar by the system.
Could it be TIME TRAVEL? Victor squinted his eyes. No that couldn’t be the case either, time travel only functioned on the soul, and looking at this girl, she clearly had a body.
Victor pondered. Should he just kill her? Thinking about it, he decided to try something else. Just an experiment. Anomalies in the system could usually lead to great gains if one were to use them right! And if this did involve time travel, it might have something to do with him.
He relaxed his bloodline power just a tiny bit around his leg, allowing the girl to sink her teeth into him.

EMIRA HAD DRANK YOUR BLOOD AND MERGED IT WITH HER OWN ESSENCE!

He quickly re-solidified his skin and pressed yes.
; ;
BLOOD SLAVE CAPTURED SUCCESSFULLY.
NICKNAME CANNOT BE GIVEN DUE TO ERROR: NO ID
Reading the notification Victor sighed and then looked at the girl, she was still trying to bite him with some blood on her lips.
He raised his leg slowly.
The girl was taken aback. She looked at him, then moments later, she turned into black smoke and darted away disappearing completely!
“Return here…” he said. She didn’t… Could it be that she didn’t understand him?
Shit… He quickly used his blood slave power, giving her the intention to return to him.
She did moments later… It was as if she wanted to escape but her body was moving on its own as she looked at Victor with fear in her eyes.
Standing in front of her, he knelt on the ground to reach her height and looked her in the eyes.
She bared her teeth and tried to bite him but couldn’t move forward. Slowly, tears began to well in her eyes as she couldn’t get what was going on!
Victor sighed, then from his storage ring he took a candy bar, a normal one. He opened it and then pushed it into her mouth.
She bit at it immediately then gasped as she began to munch at it with joy, finishing it in seconds before looking at Victor again. She no longer tried to escape and she clearly wanted more as she licked her lips. She was just like a kitten.
Victor sighed as he gave her another bar. Another little girl was conquered successfully…
Now the question was what shall he do with her.
