Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start
Chapter 977: A Reckless’ Prince Journey-----
I was surprised, Chris put much more time and effort into this than in training, he was really in love with the rich girl. Although he now had accumulated enough money to be considered a very wealthy noble, he was still a country bumpkin as she said, and lacked many manners and so on.
Nonetheless, with my help and the rest of our friends counseling, we were able to help him learn many things, from manners to even how to dance and act, because he had obviously half-lied to Frederica about being good at it.
Though he had the intention to help, and so he did. As the days passed by and we helped him, the time came and at the end of the week, a great theater function was scheduled. Chris was nervous, but his performance was rather alright, there was some nervousness in his face, but he acted well.
The entire play was named "A Reckless' Prince Journey" and showed the journey filled of misfortunes of a prince trying to save his country from being destroyed. A rather basic and classic storyline, but that in this world, so devoid of such things, was seen as quite the masterpiece.
Frederica also acted, and so did the most of us, me included. I didn't want at first but I accepted at the end, acting as the main villain, a terrible evil warlock that tormented their kingdom or something.
After I was defeated by Chris through his sheer effort and the cute performance of his spirits, the play ends with Chris and Frederica getting married, I mean in the paly not real life. Frederica played as the princess.
Just as I said, pretty typical story.
Once the function ended, there was a huge party with many nobles inside of the chief's residence, where we met Frederica's father, the guild master of the merchant's guild of this country. The duke and his daughters and wife were also present.
I was watching them all interact as I drank some fruit punch without alcohol, it seemed Frederica was completely happy with Chris, and both had become very good friends. Although I don't know if she would choose him as her future husband or something. Well, I really hope so, this way Chris can stop annoying us about not having a girlfriend.
"Chris, we've earned so much out of this play! I think father will be pleased! We need to go and immediately tell him!" Frederica was pumped up.
"Wait, what?! Are you sure? I mean, I don't think it's right to just show him how much money you earned yet…" Chris said. "Do it in a meeting or something?"
"No, dummy! We must do this immediately! This is how merchants work, alright?" Frederica laughed. "Now, come on, follow me!" She grabbed his hand, dragging him with her.
I noticed Chris blushing quite a bit.
He was indeed in love with this annoying girl.
My friend does have peculiar tastes, though I prefer women like Eleanora, Erika, or Elizabeth instead.
Frederica is simply not my type, I suppose.
"Father, oh dear father!"
Frederica greeted her father, a tall and rather muscular man for a merchant. He had a short gray beard and black hair, with sharp emerald eyes.
"Frederica, that was a lovely play. I did enjoy my time here…" He said, taking a look at Chris. "Is he your friend? I had no idea you were friends with the man that played as the prince."
"Y-Yes, nice to meet you sir." Chris said, bowing his head.
"Hmm, you've got some talent boy." Frederica's father patted Chris shoulders. "Now, what is it, my daughter? You were so eager to tell me something, it seems."
"Look." Frederica showed him her notes that included the earnings of today.
"Hm?!" He gasped. "You made this much?!"
"Yes! And I think I could make even more. Although normal plays have become rather boring and old fashioned, using tamed spirits to add music, light, colors, and illusions seems to create a much more realistic and deep experience!" Frederica said.
"Incredible, you might be into something, my daughter…" Her father seemed to have gotten rather surprised. Frederica might have earned his approval. "We'll have to see how you do this in the capital though."
"Y-Yes, I know father." Frederica sighed. "Unfortunately Chris and his friends are going back to the academy soon, so I guess this'll be my goodbye with them."
"You can't rely on their help for everything after all, better find talented spirit masters that could help you in your little startup." Her father said. "Seeing how well you earned, I might invest some in this little business you've started."
"Ahh! Really daddy?! Thank you so much!" Frederica got excited and hugged her tall and burly father out of nowhere.
"A-Ah, ahaha…" Her father got a bit embarrassed but accepted the hug of his beloved daughter.
As this happened, Chris smiled in the background, feeling rather happy things went well.
Once the banquet was mostly over, where I found myself being constantly fed all sorts of little snacks from Eleanora, Erika, and Elizabeth who were wearing some gorgeous dresses, I noticed Chris and Frederica talking outside.
Using an arachnid golem, I spied at their conversation, just to confirm if my assumptions were true or not.
"Sorry, Frederica…" Sighed Chris. "I'll have to get going now, I wish I could stay and help you in this business, I really want to… But this is a duty I gotta do and stuff."
"I know, I know." Frederica smiled. "You said you were going to liberate the elven continent now?"
"Kind of, yes. I'll do my best to help the people in need." Chris smiled with great honesty.
"I suppose that's why you fit the role of the reckless and struggling prince so well, you're a man like that, Chris." She giggled.
"Aw, come on…" Chris felt embarrassed. "Anyways, I guess… Yeah, see ya on another time then."
As Chris was going to awkwardly walk away, just happy to have made a friend, Frederica stopped him.
"Wait, Chris!"
Suddenly, her gently hand grabbed his own, stopping him from moving away.
"Y-Yes?"
"I…"
Frederica looked a bit embarrassed, but she mustered the strength to say these words.
"D-Do you really just want to go away without anything else? Don't you think something is missing, m-maybe?" She pouted a bit.
"Something missing?" Chris didn't know what she meant.
Seriously, I can't believe him…
"By the Holy Spirits, you're such a clueless man!"
Frederica suddenly grabbed his tie and dragged his face closer to hers, he was a few centimeters taller than her after all.
Their faces met very close to one another, as Chris was almost completely paralyzed.
"L-Like this! See, dummy?!"
"E-Eh?! B-But I…!"
"Just kiss me already! You like me, right? I like you too! You're so bad at reading the mood!"
"Yes!"
Chris harnessed his strength and kissed her lips.
It was a bit awkward of a kiss, but at the same time cute, and lasted longer than I thought.
Frederica ended giving her a kiss with her tongue, no less…
I didn't expect her of the fancy young lady, but she really liked him then.
"Ahhh, F-Frederica… I…" Chris was as red as tomato.
Frederica licked her lips, licking the saliva left behind from Chris. "Okay, it's done! You better return alive, okay?! O-Or else I'll kill you!"
"A-Ah… Hahaha, okay! I won't die, I promise you." Chris nodded. "And once I return, I…!"
"Yeah, yeah, we can get engaged, maybe!" Frederica smiled back at him. "Now give me a few more kisses, I need more of that. It was pretty alright actually."
"E-Eh?!"
Chris finally got himself a girlfriend.
Though, he was surprisingly shy and less assertive than I imagined…
