Chapter 593 Pregnancies Are Exhausting

While Ralph and Aurora danced together, Fiora explained to Avelyn about Aurora.

Aurora Veranz was the youngest child of Duke Zeno and Duchess Kiara Veranz and was apparently very intelligent and cunning from what Fiora knew.

Despite being the youngest, Aurora was far more smarter than all of her siblings combined and she was not even a hundred years old yet and was already a Half Saint.

She wasn't an adult yet by vampire standards but many still tried to woo her and were beaten to a pulp by her older siblings who really doted on her.

Avelyn felt this was good gossip and asked Fiora to explain more.

Fiora, having found herself a new friend, chuckled and getting close to Avelyn's ears, said, "Do you know, Zeno is the only guy among us who has so many kids."

"Oh? How many?" Avelyn asked with interest.

"Guess?"

"Five?"

"13!" 

"Damn." Avelyn was surprised.

"All from Kiara alone." Fiora dropped another bombshell.

"DAMN." Avelyn's surprise turned into shock as she heard that.

She looked at Fiora and asked, "Are you serious?"

Fiora smiled evilly and said, "I am."

Avelyn felt exhausted hearing such a big number. She was the Sin of Lust and knew more about pregnancies, sex, and everything more than anyone else in this world.

Having even a single child was something very exhausting let alone thirteen.

It is really tiring during pregnancies for a woman because lots of her movements are restricted and she would also need to take great care of herself so that the baby isn't affected.

After that would be the birth process where even with the help of magic, it'll pain to a very high degree during and after birth for a while.

Then comes the stage where the body would recover from the birth process and the pregnancy and depending on the cultivation of a person, it could range anywhere from a year to a thousand years.

Knowing how Fiora was an Emperor Rank, it'll very well take her more than a thousand years to recover.

Avelyn was genuinely shocked to find someone going through this process thirteen times!

Avelyn couldn't help but ask Fiora, "Do they not know contraceptives exist?"

Fiora giggled. "They obviously do. But as you know, to get to such a high rank, one must have some screws loose in their head. Zeno and Kiara had apparently promised each other to have lots of babies once they reached Emperor Rank and when they did, Kiara went ahead and fulfilled the promise."

"Phew. Such commitment." Avelyn said.

Fiora nodded. "Indeed. But they've now stopped after their thirteenth child and don't plan to have more."

"Good for them. Anyway, one thing I don't understand, how come the top ranking vampires are a couple?" Avelyn asked what was on her mind.

Except for Clan Adelstein, the rest of the four clans had two Emperor Ranks each and these two were a couple.

Clan Dracula had Duke Reynolds and Duchess Fiora.

Clan Crimson — Duke Axis Crimson & Duchess Sarah Crimson.

Clan Vernaz — Duke Zeno Veranz & Duchess Kiara Veranz.

And lastly, Clan Violet with Duke Denver Violet and Duchess Vanessa Violet.

It was interested Avelyn to know that all Emperor Ranks were a couple but despite searching, she didn't find any information as to why that was the case.

Now that she had a hold of Fiora, she tried to fulfil her curiosity.

Hearing that, Fiora chuckled. "Well, it's related to our history and the reason times back to the time when we didn't have the Queen ruling us, but the King."

"Oh? You have my attention." Avelyn said.

This wasn't a classified information but was something that only the old gen vampires knew about. The older ones were very few and Fiora wasn't surprised that Avelyn couldn't find the answer yet.

Fiora explained, "When Her Majesty took the throne, many Vampire Nobles at that time rebelled and angered her. She naturally wiped them out and once there were no more people questioning her authority, she went into seclusion."

"The vampire society went into a period of unrest and chaos as not only the King was gone, even the ruling nobles weren't there. This was when the remaining nobles banded together and worked hard to bring peace and stability into the society."

"It was for the first time that all nobles had worked collectively onto something and during this period, many clans merged together. The stronger ones absorbed the weaker ones and only a few clans remained."

"Some stronger clans made a marriage alliance to get even more powerful and that is the main reason why you see that all Duke Clans have two Emperor Ranks. At first it was solely due to political reasons, but after a while, we were all happy with our marriages and just went with it."

Hearing that brought a smile on Avelyn's face. "Aww, such a sweet story." 

Fiora smiled as well. "Yes. Me, Rey, Kiara, all of the current Emperors are from one generation and have known each other since we were kids. That's also the reason why it is only in the Vampire Society that there's no friction among the higher ups."

Avelyn smiled. "It seems that if there's a war between the demons and vampires, we'll be at the losing side, yes? Fufu." 

Fiora chuckled. "You and me both know there won't be any war."

"That's true." Avelyn chuckled. Everyone in the world was aware that for some reason, Vampires and Demons had a close relationship together.

It wasn't just the Vampires, apparently the Demons had a close relationship with even the Dragons and Elves. The world still couldn't figure out why such was the case, but the demons were on good terms with these races.

Being on good terms didn't mean they stopped doing demonic things. The demons were true to their selves and wouldn't stop this, but the elves, dragons, and vampires were somehow tolerant of it.

It was a strange balance that was established between the demons and these three races.

Fiora and Avelyn continued to gossip and the ball went on in full swing with the youngsters dancing.

On the Supreme meeting side, discussions were going on what could and couldn't be done with trades and everything.

Lilith, being in this meeting for a while and being a good host to them all, felt it was enough hosting and parted ways with them after asking them to enjoy the rest of the banquet and their stay in Evernight.

Agalea, Mayzin, and Lucifer also went away from the meeting as they wanted to talk with Lilith in private.

The four ladies walked together through the hallway to the private chambers and as they reached, they all saw Alea sitting there and watching the ball happen on a tablet screen.

Alea sensed people arrive and she turned to look at them.

"Alea~" Mayzin walked towards Alea and said with a happy smile.

"Aunty!~" Alea got up and hugged Mayzin as she saw her.

"Alea~" Mayzin swayed side to side after hugging Alea. "I missed you."

"Alea missed you too, aunt." Alea answered with a happy smile on her face.

The three ladies smiled watching the interaction and Lilith chimed in and said, "Are you not going to greet your other aunties, Alea?" 

"Aunt Lilith!" Alea looked at Lilith and exclaimed.

Alea broke the hug with Mayzin and went towards Lilith.

She hugged her as well and said happily, "Alea missed you too, aunt."

Lilith chuckled. "Aunt did too. How's my sweet Alea doing?" 

"I am happy~" Alea said cheerfully. "How has aunt been?" She asked back.

"Aunt met Alea, aunt is happy too now, fufufu." Lilith said with a smile.

The ladies chuckled hearing that and Alea was all smiles hearing that too.

Her gaze then fell on Lucifer as she broke the hug with Lilith and she said, "Aunty Lucifer!~"

"Alea~" Alea's bright and contagious smile lifted Lucifer's mood and made her get cheerful as well.

As Alea was about to make her way towards Lucifer, Agalea stopped her from doing so as she held her hand.

"Mama?" Alea looked at Agalea and said.

Agalea hugged Alea and staring daggers at Lucifer, said softly, "My dear, aunt Lucifer is bad. Don't go near her."

"What? Why?" Alea was surprised. She turned her head up and looked her mother with an innocent and curious look, demanding an explanation.

"Hey! Stop being a hindrance between an aunt and her cute niece." Lucifer said and walked towards Agalea to get Alea.

Agalea glared at Lucifer and turning Alea to the side, said, "Don't you dare touch my Alea. Stay away!"

"Shoo! Let me be reunited with my cutie Alea!" Lucifer tried to take Alea from Agalea.

"Go away!" Agalea turned Alea to the side again.

"No!" 

The two bickered to have the custody of Alea while Mayzin and Lilith watched with a smile.

As for Alea, she was being sandwiched between her aunt and mother and didn't know what to do.

After a while, Alea couldn't help but struggle in Agalea's embrace and said, 

"Mama, aunt, stop! Stop! Stop!"
