Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!
Chapter 188 - 188 - The days before the huge event at Freyheimr

Though this trip is technically a way to complete one of my academe classes tagged as an "immersion" type, we all know that it was just an excuse for me to be strategically nearby once the gates of Freyheimr opens for their Annual Mystique Blood Union Festival. I want to be there when it happens sonce I have been waiting for this event since I heard it as part of Void's comprehensive report back in Hoffen. As per the promise I have made to Nische, I would definitely take back all the items that were stolen from him and the kingdom of Eieneos which is I believe is right and just.

With the fake identity I have carefully built during my almost two months stay in Sklavryet as a migrant worker, I will indirectly influence them by giving an aura of excellence so that they won't have a choice but to pick me as one of their life seed donors. This is the term they call the women that they deem eligible and worthy to have children with their race. My disguise is air tight since the whole territory of Sklavryet was under my control. They would never even consider the possibility that everybody is my person and are willing to help me out in completing all of my missions. I am quite excited of everything that will happen. I am even more excited for them to realize in the future that they have invited the reason for their own demise into their territory unknowingly. I would relish seeing the reaction on their faces when that time comes. I am honestly thinking of taking in a few of the best quality elven men and mark them as vessels since I still have to keep their population on a healthy level as part of my mission though I honestly do not want to have anything to do with them. Taking in a few slaves would be fine for me on that situation. It will crush their pride too as I only think of their kind as only worthy enough as tools for my mission. You can take it as my petty way of avenging all those that they kidnapped, killed and experimented on.

As for now, I'm simply bidding my time by making myself look as normal as possible. I just kept on doing what I ought to do here if I was a normal "migrant worker". All these circumstances does not change my goal of earning as much money as I can which also equates to academe points for my "immersion" subject. I also make it a point to help out on building Marahuyo in the guise of my regular alchemy material harvesting tasks in the eastern and the southern forests every afternoon. The days went by with the same routine I had from the start. I start working at the port in the early morning before sunrise, go to the red light district to cook for the employees of Kama, go home real quick to have a taste of Lark, go to my job at the diner at brunch time, go home real quick to have a taste of Lark again before I send him off to his job at the bakery, do my alchemy gig and then secretly help out in Marahuyo. As for the evenings, you know what I would still do before sleeping. On weekends, I have meetings at Noir HQ, visit the men I sponsor in the red light district (to cook and spend some intimate time with the people I sponsor in Kama) and eat up Lark as much as his body can take. There is nothing to do at home anyways if it's our time off from work. It was busy, hectic at most days but for some reason, I don't feel tired or fed up with the routine. Maybe because I get constant "nourishment" from many sources.

The days went by quite quickly and before I knew it, it was only three days before the official opening of the borders of Freyheimr. On this day, I received a visit from a stealthy postman whose countenance I can't make a figure out of due to his cloak. I also felt some concealing and illusion magic at play too. This one's definitely an elf. He gave me a letter discreetly while I was on my way to work at the port in the wee hours of the morning. There was a short note with the letter that is instructing me to only read the letter once I am alone. Without opening the letter, the previous reports I got from Void has already informed me about this step of the process towards the annual event. I have been officially invited into their territory for the event. I wanted to laugh out loud but I have to pretend to be confused about what is happening but in my head I want to jump up with joy. I'm coming to get back my things and steal some of your males. You better be prepared for me, Freyheimr.

I hid the letter back in my storage and I was not stingy at all in showing whoever was following me that I can use mana freely. The elves and heralds have always been looking for women that will help them bear children that have talent in mana so they must be celebrating about how wonderful a find I am at this opportune time. Their desperation is definitely clouding their thoughts and sound judgement about my existence and the possibility that I was planted to purposely look useful for their goals.

On the rest of the remaining days before the borders of Freyheimr opens, I felt a constant tail following me around. The elves and heralds must be making sure that I won't fall in any circumstances that may result in me not coming to the first day of the event. I also have that feeling that if I decide that I won't go, they will just grab me and teleport me into their territory. They are really inconsiderate. As long as they get the benefits they want from someone, they don't mind using force. It seems that it was really not an invitation but more likely a letter to inform you that you have to come just like how you are drafted to serve the military during times of unrest. The decision was never in your hands to start with.

Since I had noticed the constant tail following me around these days, I was not able to visit Marahuyo. I don't want its existence to be known to the elves and heralds. I simply sent telepathic messages to Makisig as to why I am not able to visit recently. I simply asked what other necessities they needed and sent it over our shared storage. He made sure to give me constant updates on the building progress in the area. I also discussed about my plans to place my little elven and herald captives in Marahuyo so I can achieve my mission on birthing a few to stop their races from extinction. I told him that I will set them free eventually once a few of children are born from them. He told me that it would be best if I just get what I need from them and not keep them too long. I can feel strong dislike from him whenever we talked about Freyheimr. I told him that I will make sure that the children that will be born will stay with me. I will take them back to Eieneos so that people from Freyheimr won't be able to find them.

After talking to Makisig, I started to weigh my options more carefully. I started to consider what he said about just taking what I needed and then having the life orbs incubated in the room of beginnings instead. It would be a good and more feasible idea so the children can grow safely too. Keeping their father will be a huge hassle for me indeed. I can just get as much nutrition and sustenance (mana and life essences) as I can from the intended fathers on our encounters and then I can just take care of the rest of the sustenance that is still needed to make sure the elven orbs will be born on time.

Even as the tail followed me around, I still kept at my routine except the visit in Marahuyo which was replaced by the regular alchemy material harvesting that I usually do in the afternoon. I don't want the tail to know that I have already discovered I was being followed so I have to act as I normally would all this time. I want them to think I was under their control for now. I will deal with this guy first once I am inside Freyheimr for constantly pestering me during these days. I don't mind taking some of his mana and life essences. He's still an elf anyways and he must be one of the powerful ones if he's this good in stealth and espionage. He can most likely rival Void on these types of jobs. I would have loved to keep this skilled guy if he wasn't an elf and if I did not doubt their race's character and loyalty in general. I am trying not to do a hasty generalization but I can't help it. The original ones that betrayed my kingdom may have been gone to rest now but that doesn't mean everybody who has been left behind are innocent or has been washed off of their sins.
