Rebirth as The Vampire Lord's Wife
Chapter 203: Planning To Return To Country K

Chapter 203: Planning To Return To Country K

When Eric asked Iris to leave them alone to speak, she felt a bit anxious. Still, upon hearing Eric’s thoughts, she swiftly went out, flashing a playful smile at Xavier.

’Please, be kind in your words to him, Xavier... he’s my brother, my only family!’ Iris warns him through his mind before leaving them to converse.

It felt comforting to have an older brother to discuss how Xavier should treat her like a princess—something she missed when living with him. Not just that matter, but many things.

Marrying Xavier seemed unreal to Iris. They never had any celebrations. There were no parties, no grand wedding. She didn’t even visit the courthouse to sign their marriage certificate; Xavier simply handed her a form to sign, and shortly after, their marriage certificate was ready.

Iris asked Xavier if he manipulated the marriage registrar’s thoughts to issue their marriage certificate. However, Xavier always responded vaguely. Eventually, she grew tired of asking again.

The Fun Room — where Justin and the others usually play games or goof around. Vampires being who they are, sleep wasn’t their thing.

"Huh!? Why’re you here?" Justin was all wide-eyed at Iris appearing out of the blue when she was supposed to chat with Eric in the living room.

Iris didn’t answer him, but her eyes landed on Niles, who sat next to Justin, deep into his game, clicking away at his joystick. She hadn’t seen much of Niles lately; he seemed super busy with Xavier’s stuff outside.

She joined them, settling on the single couch, sneaking a peek at the giant screen to see what game they were into this time. When she spotted them playing a soccer game, she turned to Justin, who was all eyes on the screen.

"I dropped in to discuss my plan about heading back to K," Iris said, chilling on the sofa, casually flipping open her phone.

Iris tries to contact Gavriel and let him know about her new assignment. Even though Gavriel said he wouldn’t help her on her next assignment, she still wanted to notify him.

Niles suddenly stopped his game and said, "You’re heading back to K? When?"

"Hey, Niles! You ditch right after beating me like that?" Justin grumbled, irritated with Niles. But Niles paid him no mind; he shuffled over to sit close to Iris.

Justin, "..."

Iris didn’t pay much attention to Justin. She nodded at Niles, saying, "Yeah, I plan to head back there in a few days after helping Eric settle things here."

She needed to assist Eric in adjusting to a new place. Eric wanted to live close to her, and she was okay with that. Apart from her ambition to gain power, she also aimed to help Eric heal.

She was determined to find the Demon King’s Blood to cure Eric’s undead state.

And, because she had grown fond of Country K, she decided to stay there, particularly in their house in District Four. So, she will also find a place for Eric to settle in K.

Justin was about to scold Niles, but when he heard Iris was returning to K, he immediately forgot his irritation with Niles. He put the joystick down on the table and joined their conversation.

"Why the sudden move back, Iris? I thought you’d settle here since this town is your hometown," Justin asked, puzzled.

Iris glanced at Justin, "I know this is my hometown and country, but I didn’t plan to stay here forever. I intend to spend my life in District Four. I love that place..." Her eyes lit up, imagining the beautiful scenery with its lake and mountain.

She’d fallen in love with its breathtaking view. Unlike her current city apartment, the bustling noise here didn’t fit her idea of a peaceful life. She planned only to return if necessary.

"Yeah, I also prefer Country K; it’s more beautiful, and the weather is cooler than here..." Justin nodded in agreement. Having spent nearly two decades there, he was accustomed to the place.

"And my second reason..." Iris smiled at Justin, eager for this opportunity.

"What is it?" Justin asked impatiently.

"I’ve received my fourth assignment. My target is in District Four, so I have to return to K earlier than planned," she explained excitedly.

"I see," Justin nodded. "So, are we taking action, right?" He felt the thrill of assisting her. Only the two of them would carry out the task this time without Gavriel.

Justin disliked Gavriel’s rigid approach and rules to teach Iris slowly. In contrast, he preferred to teach Iris how to fight the evil creatures with improvisation.

"Yes. That’s why I need you to go back first to investigate my target..." Iris said, sending something to Justin’s phone. "Did you get the files?" she asked.

He checked his phone immediately, "Yes, I received it. Alright, I’ll head back today. Any special instructions?"

After thinking for a moment, Iris shook her head. "No, just ensure not to alert them. Be careful, Justin; my targets have powerful forces supporting them. So—"

Her words faded as Justin waved his hand and chuckled. "Come on, Iris, worrying about my skills? I’m not that weak..." He said, standing up and leaving. He had tasks to finish before returning to K.

"Thank you, Justin," Iris called out. She couldn’t help but smile at Justin’s happiness when he left the room.

After Justin left, she turned to Niles. "I need your help..." she said.

"What is it?" Niles replied, slipping his phone into his jacket pocket.

"I need you to create fake documents for Eric that will make him a citizen of K. Can you do it quickly?" Iris requested.

Although Niles was surprised to hear Iris’ request, he still nodded in agreement. Making such documents wasn’t a difficult task for them. He only needed to call Killian, and everything would be handled.

"Don’t worry, I’ll handle it," he assured.

Iris smiled, pleased to see his quick response. "Thank you, Niles!"

"It’s my duty to assist you, Milady," Niles said, rising from his seat. He excused himself to attend to the task.
