A.N Sorry for the inconvenience, but I made an error in the previous chapter on the very last part. Again, very sorry about it, hope it won't happen again in the future.
As Yuki descended to the ground, it was just enough because the dark mist that the Eclipse had brought had finally ended, and it was finally back to the true sky and color of the world of Soulside Town. When people saw this, they couldn't help but cheer in the air because they thought that there was a powerful being nearby and they felt nervous because there was no telling what that person would do to them. But not all of them were happy though, there was a group of people whose faces were ashen because of fear, anger, and anxiety.
"Fuck, whatever you do. Never tell anyone what we just talk about or else I will kill every single one of you and your family." Daryl used Telepathy to talk to the members of the Totem to give them a warning to never tell anyone what they have talked about, he also said to them that the plan was dismissed for now since he still needed to take care of what happened here in his Town.
"My People, please don't get scared by what just happened. I'm sure that we are not going to be affected by what we saw, I'm here to support and help you even if it costs my life, I will do everything for the sake of Soulside Town." Daryl used his Qi to enhance his voice to make it louder so that everyone in Soulside Town could hear what he was saying and because of those words, everyone immediately felt safe because of it.
"All Hail the Town Lord! Bless him with a thousand lives!" All of them cheered happily and in response, Daryl flew up to the sky and bowed in head to show himself to everyone. But even though everyone was cheering for him, there was one person who snickered at him for being so fake, it was of course Yuki.
"This guy… his brains work like the people on Earth. What they take care of first is the people before truly taking any actions. Making yourself look good huh? I wonder then what would happen if people were to see what just happened here?" Yuki chuckled in response as she took out the headless corpse of the man that she just killed threw it on the ground without anyone looking and took her leave. She purposely placed the body where it was easy to find and when someone did, the first thing they did was scream for help.
This of course caught everyone's attention as all of them immediately rushed to where the screaming came from and when they got there, they saw a frightening scene. A headless body was impaled by one of the street lights, blood was dripping on the whole body of the pole, and some even splashed on the ground. But that wasn't all they saw, they also saw something written on the ground using the blood of the person who had died.
"Come on Town Lord, you should be an Actor instead of doing Politics with that kind of acting~"
Because Yuki was fluent in the Vampire Language already because of her Skill, she could write and understand everything, though the same thing couldn't be said about her daughters and Fumiko, at least they had a small understanding of it. They can still understand what Vampire says, though it is hard for them to reply and write since they are still not used to it.
When Daryl arrived there and read what was written, his face immediately darkened as he couldn't help but clench his fist in anger because he knew that the little girl who heard him was probably the one who was behind this. It was clear that she was trying to put dirt in his name by purposely revealing the body of the man that she killed and the worse thing is that the body belonged to one of the Assassins that he hired. His mind was racing as he began to think of a way to get out of this situation, but before he completely panicked out of his mind, he remembered that there was no clear evidence of what he did which made him sigh in relief, but one person saw that, and they couldn't help but chuckle in response which caught the eye of Daryl.
Immediately looking to the right, she saw Yuki the little sister of the woman whom he has a crush on laughing at him, this caused all of his uneasiness to disappear as it was now anger towards that little girl who was still mocking him. He doesn't know the reason why, but the first time he saw her, he had a good impression of her because he could already tell that she was powerful and even though she was cold, it didn't matter to him too much, but when he said that he has a crush on her big sister and had plans to chase after her. All of that completely changed, she suddenly began to mock him and look down at him, even giving him a warning to never chase her sister or else.
Though at first, he was still willing to let it slide because he thought that she was merely being protective of her naive big sister, the more she talked to him, the more hostility he felt towards her. Especially when Yuki used her bloodlust on him, that is when he truly felt that Yuki was hostile to him and this made him lose face to his people because he was rejected by the family member of the woman he was trying to chase after.
"This little girl… she's still laughing at me." Daryl is almost blinded by his own anger after seeing Yuki laughing at him, but he decides to calm down because if he doesn't, he might do something that he will truly regret in his lifetime. So ignoring Yuki, he calmed down his people and explained things by simply saying that someone wanted to slander him, of course, everyone believed his words because they trusted their Town Lord a lot.
"Everyone, please don't panic. I know and you know that I wouldn't do such a thing because I truly would sacrifice everything just for the wellbeing of our little Town. So please don't believe what this person is trying to tell you, I believe that they are just slandering me because as you know, the selection of the new Government is about to come. They are now striking."
When Yuki heard those words, she was pleasantly shocked as she didn't know that it was basically the same as Earth. The Government controls everything also has a period of time and after considering some things, she decides to leave and find Fumiko because now that she was informed about it, she has to change her plans. Something that would revolve around it.
"Heh… since there is that kind of System, then allow me to use it then. Since one of my Quest needs to overtake Nightingale without using dirty deeds, I can do that by being a Hero. A Hero then tries to elect herself to be the King by doing a Coup d'état at him. I mean, it is not illegal for me to slander the Emperor or the Empress, right?" Yuki muttered to herself and she did this so that her Mother and especially Momozano could hear it, so that she could realize that no matter how hard she tried to make a Quest with no loopholes, there would still be some.
"Wait! No, isn't that an illegal act!? How is she so confident that creating a Coup d'état by slandering the Emperor would not be illegal?" Momozano slammed her desk in anger and shock because she thought that it was truly an illegal act.
"I'm not sure if you want to hear this, but… Yuki is right. I mean, there is no law that you can't slander anyone by creating fake news, right? Plus with her intelligence I don't think that she will do that, slandering someone with fake news. She'll most likely slander that man and when the time is right, she'll probably dethrone him using Coup d'état. Though I don't know how she is going to do it, I'm probably correct on this." Merlin popped Momozano's bubble so easily.
"HAHAHAAHHA, you just got shot down by Merlin, and she is right you know. It is simply not illegal because there are no laws, there are laws in it, but that is more towards ethical laws which is not really the same with laws. I'm sure you know that, so just accept it this time that Yuki has played you." Naragami chuckled after seeing Momozano's red face.
