Vampire's Slice Of Life
chapter-787

Lith's threat made the Enchantress raise an eyebrow in surprise. However, she didn't budge from her position.

The corner of her lips curved up and she said softly, "You truly are one of a kind."

Lith didn't feel the least bit of happiness from her compliments and simply stared at her with a calm expression.

"Do you know how you're able to meet me? And do you want to know who I am?" The Enchantress asked with a smile.

Lith didn't answer.

"I'll tell you…"

It was exactly due to this reason he didn't answer.

Having met so many women in his life, Lith had a general idea to gauge their personalities. The more sophisticated a person was, the more likely they were to only speak what they wanted to.

Meaning, no matter how much one tried to coax them or pressure them into saying things, they wouldn't do it.

Lith's reply thus was irrelevant to the current conversation. If he said yes, chances of her not answering and involving him into some sort of riddles were quite high.

Keeping silent was the possible thing one could do in such a situation.

The Enchantress eventually answered Lith as to who she was and how he got here.

Apparently, for one single moment, Lith suffered through the most intense pleasure possible and this got detected by the disciples of this Enchantress.

The disciples eventually pulled Lith's consciousness to a higher plane and here he was.

As for who this woman was…

The Enchantress traced her index finger across Lith's face seductively and asked, "Will you be able to stay sane after hearing my true name?"

Contact with a Demigod and above, that is, above Supreme Rank, was tricky.

They were powerful beings and just by hearing their voice could result in death.

It was exactly due to this that there were statues that people worshipped and Supreme Ranks communicated by lower ranked beings through their dreams or in some other indirect way.

Even talking to an Emperor Rank was harmful and great precautions had to be taken.

Lith had once asked his wife Emilia as to why she didn't go see the devotees who so diligently worshipped her and she stated this reason.

They could go mad due to happiness and die, but that was a very rare chance. The main reason for them to die would simply be due to coming in contact with a being of much higher level than them.

Higher beings had to suppress themselves to a great deal and then things were fine.

There were always a lot of exceptions and other things to avoid this though.

For example, Lith, Ralph, and Dennis, this trio were children of Emperor Ranks and above. They had always been in direct contact with their parents and hence, Emilia and Arya could normally interact with them.

In Lith's case, he was immune to everyone because of his mother and would be harmed only if someone forcefully pressured him with their aura.

The Enchantress was surprised due to this.

Lith had glanced at her, even talked to her, and she came closer to him and touched him, yet there was nothing that happened to Lith.

Fascinated, she couldn't help but push the limits and see how far he can manage it.

"You're good," said the Enchantress with amusement. "I'll tell you who I am then. I belong to a sect called the Great Love and Beauty Sect, but…"

The Enchantress walked behind Lith and putting her arms around his neck, hugged him. She brought her mouth close to his ears and continued,

"…but, you see… that's a façade. In truth, we are actually the ancient Demonic Lust and Ethereal Charm Sect. I am the Sect Master, Ning Xin Xue, the oldest temptation to ever exist."

Whatever the Enchantress said, Lith didn't feel too shocked or too amazed by it. In fact, he felt nothing because he had not the slightest of idea about what the fuck this sect was or what this title meant.

Ignorance is bliss, they say. Lith was actually lucky to not know about this woman because if he did, his whole being would've been swallowed by her, the moment he showed a slight hint of panic or worry.

Even a slight exaggerated emotion would've caused Lith's mind to escalate towards destruction and go to a point of no return.

Even the Enchantress was surprised by this. But being an old being, she didn't show it on her face and kept teasing Lith, as if her surprise never existed in the first place.

"Are you not going to introduce yourself? That's not good manners, you know?" Ning Xin Xue said.

"I would've, but I dislike your acting." Lith said calmly, making the Enchantress smile in astonishment.

She softly kissed Lith's cheek and hugging him firmly, said, "Certainly very interesting. I don't plan to kill you anymore. You can go back after you accept a few conditions of mine."

Lith turned his head to the side and glancing at her, asked, "And what if I don't accept?"

The woman let go of Lith and giggled softly.

She walked in front of him and lightly booping his nose, said playfully, "I'll still let you go. You're too cute after all."

This time, Lith felt some emotions stir up within him.

This woman didn't seem to be acting anymore and this appeared like her true self. If this was all an act as well, then Lith knew she was too big of a trouble.

Still, believing in his guts, Lith assumed that she wasn't acting and decided to play along with her.

Looking at her, he asked calmly, "Your conditions are?"

The woman smiled. "They're not much. I just want you to promise me that you'll find me and not get tempted. You'll also make me as your wife, forever love and cherish me. Do you accept?"

Lith was totally taken aback by this comment and had to stare at this woman for a good few seconds, wondering if she had just said this or was it someone else.

Looking at the woman's smiling face and staring at it for a few seconds, Lith could feel it. It was a faint emotion, but Lith could still feel it.

This woman's smile… it reeked of sadness.

Now, Lith was no wise old man, but he could still see that this woman seemed lonely with the way she spoke.

It was for the first time someone had proposed to him like this and Lith wondered, what the fuck was happening?

What sort of strange series of coincidences were these?

Grand Lust Sovereign's inheritance heightened his pleasure to such an intense level that a higher entity took notice of him and summoned his consciousness.

This very entity was trying to kill him just a few seconds ago and now here she was, trying to match herself with Lith, wanting to be his wife.

It was all so strange and weird…

Lith looked at her and asked, "What would you gain from this? From how I see it, there's nothing in it for you, and neither do I think I am gaining anything as well."

The Enchantress covered her mouth and giggled. "What sort of backwaters do you hail from?"

A vein popped on Lith's head. 'Again?' He thought.

Grand Lust Sovereign was annoying as is, now this woman was saying the same thing.

The Enchantress looked into Lith's eyes and explained with a soft smile, "You'll gain me, I'll gain you. That's the benefit. You see, I need a companion…"

The woman began reciting her tale, absorbing Lith into her storytelling.

Ning Xin Xue was a great beauty, born with charms that no other woman possessed into a mighty Emperor's family.

Jealous and envied by other women, coveted and lusted by other men, she had lived all her life.

Thankfully, ever since a child, she had been blessed with great wisdom and knew how to look after herself.

When her own father tried to r*pe her, she seduced the General and got the two to fight.

The friction caused the collapse of the empire and Ning Xin Xue fled from the palace.

Hiding and wandering, she eventually awakened and became a cultivator.

Things were going fine and she kept herself away from civilization, but feeling too lonely, she went to find herself a companion, only to have people show out the same reaction.

This time around though, since she wasn't the daughter of a mighty emperor, there was no one to protect her and she was about to be defiled.

However, using the same tactics as she seduced a strong cultivator and got in his protection.

Her beauty was far too much and the cultivator favored her greatly, but she had to serve him with her whole being and this was something she didn't like.

She tried to escape, but the cultivator found her. She tried to manipulate him and escape, but it didn't work either.

Having no other choice, she felt dejected and continued to serve the cultivator, until one day, she found a noble warrior.

The noble warrior saw the Enchantress in distress and fought with the cultivator, but alas, the tragedy only repeated itself as she was once again bound to the warrior and couldn't escape.

Eventually, such things repeated and she was passed on from one man to another. Her heart broke and she too was on the verge of breaking after such tragedies repeated themselves.

But, she collected herself due to her great wisdom and didn't lose hope.

She did what she was best at—seduce others; and by doing so, she slowly and surely got stronger than the cultivators who coveted her and broke free from this tragic cycle of being passed from one person to another.

She began walking on the path of temptation and reached at such a high point that anyone who looked at her would lose their mind and try to r*pe her.

She used this method and hunted many people stronger than herself, albeit at a cost of getting r*ped. But it was all for the greater good as people were vulnerable during their pleasure-filled intimate moments.

She killed people, used their resources and became more powerful.

This cycle repeated itself and with this…

The Oldest Temptation came into existence.
