Chapter 260 Escarte: Michael Is Enchating



[Caroline Escarte\'s POV]

.

.

Yes, I was rich from the start. And yes, most of my problems were easily solved by my family name. Whether it was money, or position, or fame, or perhaps anything? I got it as long as I worked for it a little.

What was my work? Get good marks in the classes or excel in the sports of my choice, which is archery, or perhaps learn how to fight a little. As long as I excelled better than the others, I received what I wanted. 

It wasn\'t easy; it wasn\'t hard, and it wasn\'t something that could be described as a motivational story. More like a simple story of a rich girl… or at least that\'s how I portray it.

\'If only things were that simple,\' I recall back to my childhood properly. 

\'We were treated like robots,\' I understood it quite some time ago. Our works, our ways of doing things, do\'s and not do\'s… everything was based on rules and systematics. It was about pride, it was about fame and it was about reputation.

When I was 5 yrs old, they forced me to solve complex problems of arithmetics and algebra because that\'s what happens in our family. Rather than having a playful childhood, they asked me to outperform my peers and if I failed to do so? 7 lashes would punish me at my back. That\'s how harsh my grandmother was.

My father… let\'s just say he cared about his reputation and wealth more than me and as long as I don\'t do anything regarding that, he won\'t even care if I were dead or alive. 

\'But… he was the first one to sacrifice his life when it came to protecting me,\' I don\'t know what to feel anymore about him. Did I misunderstand him? Or did he change after the apocalypse?

My mother… for her pride was everything. As long as I excelled and outperformed my peers, she would be really happy. If I fail to do so, she will throw curses at me as if I weren\'t even her daughter but a slave she bought out of somewhere.

\'And yet… she begged me to run away as I was trying to stay with them,\' I was confused more than I should be… This is troublesome.

My sister and brother never cared for me before the apocalypse, yet after the apocalypse they changed so much that I did not know what to think of them.

\'That is why I am here. To confirm if they really had a love for me before Apocalypse or not,\' I firmed my decision as I reached Escarte Comm. where my brother, Nicholas, would be working right now.

And I got my answer pretty soon

"Michael… I apologize that we met the way we did… but can you do me a favor? Take Carol and run away from here… I beg you… please…"(Nicholas)

The way he spoke to Michael… reminded me of the Nicholas of the Apocalypse. Made me happy…

He was ready to die for me, but I wasn\'t worried, to be honest. Because? Michael was there with me. As long as he is there, I don\'t think I need to worry about… perhaps anything.

And I was right… 

"I would like to hear the opinion of the King of the south region of Meria country, Michael Aroa."(Belmont)

Their leader spoke in a familiar tone as he looked at Michael. I already knew Michael\'s identity, so it wasn\'t really a surprise for me. But it was still odd to look at the guy whom my brother thought so highly of, turns out to be at an equal level to Michael… though I still believe Michael is way stronger than that king.

\'But what are they doing right now?\' I questioned as I saw that King guy. He was getting too close to Michael. It wasn\'t anything bad, but… the heck?

In front of me, Belmont was really close to Michael with a smile plastered on his face. His eyes were really curious as he asked,"Can you repeat your sentence again?"

Michael, who was already exhausted, replied to him anyway,"it\'s a portal gate that will open the pathway to another planet, an OuterWorld to be precise."

Belmont was really excited for some reason. Looking at him, giggling to himself, was a kind of creepy… it sent chills down my spine as I looked at him. Though he didn\'t seem to be bothered about it much.

"You probably don\'t know Sir Michael but… I have been carrying these things for over 500 yrs and not once have I found anyone recognizing this gadget. I had really lost hope, you know? Even Miss Angela doesn\'t know anything about this,"he spoke, revealing the reason he was excited. 

"Is there anything else you can tell about this, Sir Michael?\'\' He was respecting Michael a little too much. I could see the tired face of Michael as if he wanted to run away from here, yet he didn\'t for some reason.

"Can I see it up close?" Michael asked as he scratched his head a little and Belmont, though seemingly skeptical, slowly gave the device to Michael. 

"Hmmmm… It seems to be linked to a planet named… Wera. Do you know anything about it?" Michael asked as he observed the device. 

I, Belmont, Nicholas and even that Vampire Hag, Silver, looked at Michael in disbelief. I knew about his system a little, but… that doesn\'t change the fact that it was amazing.

"Michael… Who are you?" Belmont asked as he looked at Michael with a complex look and even brother\'s face had the same question. 

The person in question was simply smiling humbly, as if it wasn\'t that much of a big deal. He simply spoke,"It was nothing, honestly. But the real problem is unlocking the device so that it works and opens the portal to that planet."

Hearing his words, I don\'t know why but I felt a sudden relief in my heart… At least there are some things which Michael can\'t do… he seems more approachable like that.

"That is fine. It\'s my job to figure out how to open the portal there. I actually know a person from Wera. In fact, I think he would be interested in opening the portal as much as I would,"Belmont spoke as he looked at Michael before continuing,

"I will arrange 20% of the monsters for your training, but it is going to take a week. Will that be fine with you?" 

Michael nodded with satisfaction before Belmont asked again,"is there anything else you need?" Michael pondered a little before speaking,"When you are about to open the portal, call me as well? All your excitement got me interested in that planet."

He chuckled a little before nodding at Michael\'s request. Then he bid farewell as he spoke,"I will you to your things then. Most of our purpose is fulfilled now."

I saw him vanishing from there through a black portal, the same as the one from which he came last time. Michael, who was smiling up until now, his expression turned really exhausted as he looked at me and gave a dry chuckle as he spoke,

"Well. That was exhausting."

I smiled back at him as I moved closer to him. Reaching almost near to him, I kissed him on the lips as I spoke,"thank you for saving my family and me."

Despite the task being super easy, it doesn\'t change the fact that he did save my family. It would be too rude to not even say a thank you to him… as for anything else… It makes me kinda sad that there is little to none that I can do for him.

"It\'s okay, sweetheart. Nothing that big, to be honest," Michael spoke as he kissed me again before smiling a little. 

\'Damn, his smile is making me wanna eat him right now!!!\' It was hard to control myself, to be honest. It was a miracle that I didn\'t pound myself at him after all this traveling. I guess I was waiting for appropriate timings…

"Master… " I heard a small voice from behind as I looked at that Vampire Hag, who looked no more than 25, standing there with a slightly reddened face. 

\'Just how many girls is he gonna get? Every time something happens, another girl comes crawling around him…\' I sighed as I looked at that Vampire.

"Before you speak anything, tell me about this \'Master\' thingy you are saying,"Michael asked as he looked at Silver with a curious look.

"About that… Two conditions… my previous master passed me to another and that another should be stronger than me. Mostly because Nicholas used to send me to men to kill them. He would use words like \'you are his now\' or \'take her, she is yours\' even though he means that to kill them. Normally men are weak and pathetic… almost all of them… but master was different,,,

And when… When my master turned out to be stronger than me, both conditions were fulfilled. It was more of a trap to get me back to the Rosante family when they were going to take over the Escarte. The Escarte doesn\'t know about my true nature either." She explained everything in a precise manner without using many words. Hearing her words, I kind of understood that she was also a part of the plan of the Rosante to take over my Family… Those fuckers… but I guess I can leave them to Michael. All the more because it\'s all related to vampires and stuff which Michael is interested in.

As for me, I need to deal with my close family members. Finding my answers before getting to a final conclusion.

"Well. I guess that answers your behavior… with that done… Nicholas… what will you do now?" Michael asked as he turned to my brother, who was sitting on the sofa lost in his own thoughts.

\'Ah! Brother was here too…\' I forgot
