Vampire's Slice Of Life

588 Situation Under Control

City Hall, Evernight City.

The Supreme Ranks were sitting around the round table and discussing various issues such as security and other geopolitical tensions that were happening in the world.

Lilith and Arya stayed quiet in this matter and it was the others who were actively taking part in this conversation.

While the conversation went on, Arya, sitting beside Lilith, felt her phone suddenly vibrate. 

Wondering what could be so urgent that her phone was vibrating, she took it out and checked it.

As Arya went through the things on it, her jolly mood immediately dropped and the smile from her face was wiped out.

Although her mood was at the lowest currently, she didn't express it on her face and sat calmly in her place.

She put her phone away and thought it was best if she left this place. 

However, just as she was about to get up and leave, she felt someone hold her hand.

"Don't worry about it." Arya soon heard a soft whisper in her ears.

Turning to look at the source, she saw Lilith holding her hand and looking at her with a calm look.

Lilith leaned forwards and said softly in Arya's ears, "the situation is under control, you don't have to take action. Keep checking your phone, you'll be updated this way." 

Arya was surprised to know her mother-in-law already knew what she was thinking about. 

This made her wonder whether her mother-in-law knew about everything because she was a Legendary Rank or because she was good at reading faces and situations.

She nodded her head lightly in response to Lilith's words and took out her phone to check things.

Although she had a blindfold on, she could still see clearly what was on her phone.

As Arya went through it, she saw that Lucy's snippets were all over the internet and people were making fake images of it.

The images were spreading quickly everywhere and this was making Arya restless as she wanted to take action and stop this. She could currently do so via her phone as well but her mother-in-law asked her to just watch.

As Arya continued to do so, she saw that the images she was looking at started disappearing one by one.

In just a few seconds, the explosion of Lucy's fakes that spread over the internet immediately disappeared as if nothing had happened, making Arya surprised.

She wondered if this was the doing of her mother-in-law, but before asking Lilith this, she first ensured whether everything was gone or were some traces still present.

Arya went through the web to check for the traces but didn't find anything.

She then switched searching from the normal internet and went to the dark web, where most of the internet lay.

Being the owner of Scelestus who created the Dark Web and also the ruler of the underworld, Arya controlled the dark side of the internet.

She naturally could access everything through her phone as well and there was no one in the world who knew more about the dark web than Arya herself.

As she went through it, she got another surprise as not a lot of traces were left on the dark web as well.

Arya calmed down after knowing this and what remaining traces there were, she wiped them out herself and left no mark of things.

Just as she finished this, something struck her. 

She turned to look at Lilith and leaning towards her, she said softly in her ears,

"Mother… the situation is under control but…"

Lilith smiled lightly hearing that and leaned towards Arya's ears. She continued where Arya left off,

"...but what about the people who have already seen it? Won't they recreate it, right?"

"Indeed." Arya said softly.

"Fufufu… don't worry about it. I'll take care of those people." Lilith assured Arya.

"Are you sure? I can do it if you want me to." Arya replied. Lucy was her family now and she cared about everyone in the family. Despite knowing her mother-in-law was more than capable enough to do things, she still asked.

Lilith nodded lightly and said, "Don't worry, my dear. I'll handle it."

Watching the two talk about something in a corner, the Supremes wondered what could that be that Lilith and Arya were so secretly talking about.

But despite being curious, they knew it would be rude to ask about it and tried to ignore their interaction.

All went about their own business and continued to discuss things, except of course, for one person.

Lilith and Arya were discussing while leaning down at the side of the table. Lilith had just assured Arya that she could do it herself and Arya didn't need to chime in.

Their talks had ended and they were about to get back into their positions when…

"Hey! What are you two whispering about?" Arya and Lilith heard a whisper.

A head appeared at the side of the table as well and who else could it be but Lucifer?

Lucifer had made her way towards Lilith and Arya by moving her chair to the position between them. She didn't care even in the slightest about what others thought of her and sneakily appeared between the two.

"Why are you here, Lucifer?" Lilith whispered and asked Lucifer.

Lucifer whispered back, "I don't know. I thought you two were talking about something interesting." 

Arya, who heard that, couldn't help but smile. Her mood returning back to her previous jolly self.

"Is this the true face of the Demon Queen?" She whispered.

Lilith turned to look at Arya and shook her head. "No. Don't get yourself wrong. She isn't what she looks like." 

Lucifer nodded. "Indeed. I am—"

"She's a stupid otaku who sleeps, masturbates, and lazes around all day in her home, doing nothing. Don't think that just because she's a Demon Queen, she's more vile than all the demons and devils combined."

"Hey! What the fuck!?" Lucifer whispered in annoyance.

Arya raised an eyebrow in interest. "Oh? Tell me more about it. Sounds interesting."

It was Arya's first time seeing the Supremes and this was big news to her that Lucifer wasn't what she thought she was.

Lilith, as she heard that, her brows knitted and an annoyed look appeared on her face. She whispered, "I take it back. She's really vile. I don't like her."

Lucifer became annoyed too now. "Bitch, I don't like you either!" 

Lilith ignored Lucifer and continued, "do you know, this stupid otaku made moves on my baby?" 

"What!?" Arya was shocked. When did her husband and the Demon Queen even meet and when did this happen? How did she not know?

Lilith nodded. She then made a sad expression and said, "Sigh. It's inevitable but this otaku will become your sister soon." 

"..." Lucifer was speechless as she heard that.

Arya was momentarily silent too and was trying to process this information.

Lucifer then said with a slight angry tone, "What is up with you, Lilith? Why do you think I'll do such a thing?"

But then something struck her and she whispered, "And also, what the fuck! This new girl… she… she's your son's wife!?" 

Just like that, the three had a heated debate at the side of the table and thankfully, Lilith had cast a sound barrier around them and nobody could hear what they were saying.

The Supremes could now only wonder what these three were talking about and despite having an itch at their heart to know more about it, they couldn't do anything and just try to ignore it.

Meanwhile…

Tack! Tack! Tack!

"Done, Your Highness. Where to next?" Hecate, working on a computer, said to Lith.

Lith heaved a sigh of relief and slumped on the nearest chair.

"That was the last of it. Good work, Miss Hecate."

"Oh." Hecate said in slight surprise. Without even her knowing, this was over so soon.

Lith, who momentarily had time to catch a breather, suddenly realised something.

"Tsk. Although everything is gone from the internet, is everything really gone from the whole of the internet?" He questioned.

"Hmm?" Hecate didn't understand. "What does His Highness mean?"

Lith looked at her and said, "I mean to say, dark web. Is everything gone from the dark web as well?"

"Oh!" It struck Hecate now. "One second, I'll check it immediately." She got back to working.

A few minutes of checking later, she looked at Lith with visible surprise on her neutral face, "There's… nothing. No trace, nothing is available on the dark web either regarding it."

"What?" Lith was surprised this time. "How is that possible?"

Although he asked a question, it wasn't to Hecate and was a rhetorical one which he just said in the heat of the moment.

But Hecate took it seriously and got to thinking on why it must be possible. Soon… she realized the reason.

'The reason could definitely be her.' She thought to herself. 'But, if I can think of that person, why does His Highness not know of it?'

She wondered about it for a good few seconds and came to a conclusion that Lith probably wasn't aware.

Hecate looked at Lith and answered his previous question, "It could be due to Scelestus." 

"Hmm?" Lith, who was lost in his thoughts, put her attention back on Hecate.

Hecate nodded. "Your Highness, do you not know that Scelestus owns almost the entirety of the dark side of the underworld?" 

"Well… I do. But what does that have to do with this situation?" Lith asked, not getting it.

'Ah, he definitely doesn't know.' Hecate thought to herself. She cleared her throat and continued,

"Well… Your Highness, you have ties with Scelestus and I am sure they must've taken actions to stop these things." 

Lith knitted his brows hearing that. "They don't even know who I am, so why would they do such a thing? If they knew I am the Vampire Prince, then yes, they could have deleted stuff regarding Lucy. But they don't."

"Ah… well…" Hecate was at a loss of words. 

'I messed up.' She thought to herself.
