Chương 3: The Beginning of Ignorance
As she ended the kiss, she led him toward their throne. Everyone stood up as Nashia approached her throne and sat.
Eric also followed her and sat on the throne beside her. Then the others could sit back in their chairs.
Eric could hear the sarcastic laughs the nobles were throwing at him. Even though he is now married to her, she didn't crown him.
Which means he can access half the authority of an emperor consort since he is not crowned. Nashia also noticed the laughs, but she seemed to enjoy it and turned a blind eye. While Eric suffers alone as he doesn't know anyone there.
As soon as the ritual was done, the feast was held at the castle by the vampire Empire. A long dining hall room setup with a few very long tables and chairs.
All were decorated in red and black covers, the same with the wedding theme. Long candles are flaming in the middle of the table.
And every seat is adorned with a personal "Thank You" note along with red little roses bouquets. And red towels are tidied up for personal use on the table.
There were guests of both Empires at the feast. Nashia and Eric stood to start the feast as they raised their couple's wine glass.
They hold their full crystal wine glass adorned with red roses in the curves in the air as they toast everyone. They cross their arms as they drink from their wine glass. The feast lasts a long time.
As the ceremony finishes, the ignorance of Nashia starts to show. He was taken to the main palace, the Ivory Palace.
Her maids led Eric to his bedroom to get freshed and ready for their wedding night. After he took a bath, they led him to the joint bedchamber.
Their bed chamber was joined into 3 chambers. On the two sides, it was their personal bed chamber, while in the middle it was their joint bed chamber. They can only enter the joint bedchamber through their own rooms.
When he entered the chamber she still wasn't there. He sat at the bedside and waited for her. He stared at the door which was connected with her bedchamber.
But she didn't come to the joint bedchamber to celebrate their union. She ignored him as if she had never married him.
He just kept quiet, as he knew from the start she said that she would have a political marriage with him.
He didn't expect to have his wife's company on their first night anyway. He got up and went to the balcony. He stared at the dark sky above his head and the moon.
"How different this empire is from Zenith. This empire is naturally beautiful yet fearful. That red moon in the sky. I never saw it in Zenith. Who knows how my life will go from now on?"
He thought as he jumped into his past years' thoughts. He can't help but remember how he ended up being married to her despite being the first prince and the righteous heir to the throne of the Zenith Empire.
10 years ago, when Eric was 15 years old, among the neighboring kingdoms, there was a kingdom ruled by vampires for generations called Rosett. Currently, Rosett has two living royals, the empress and an imperial princess.
The imperial princess, Novia Rosario came to the Zenith Empire with a delegation to continue their peaceful connection.
While staying at the empire, she resided in the castle. Eric saw her from far a few times. She was a gorgeous lady with silky black hair and her red rose-like eyes shined brighter in the light of the sun. They asked the Rosett empire for mutual help to conquer other kingdoms.
But Novia declined at once, since their empire had been maintaining complete peace without any war for around 100 years now. But that dissatisfied Alex and Gloria.
They didn't react much to this denial. But the problem arose when she tried to pursue Alex to maintain peace.
There were a lot of terms where their opinions didn't match, which caused displeasure among them. There were a few conflicts between her and Gloria too, which made Gloria end up hating her.
Novia understands that they are planning to attack them too whenever they get a chance. But they maintained a good relationship for a long time, so she decided to overlook it and pursue a peace-treaty. But Novia ended up dying in Zenith.
It caused a huge commotion in the empire. They sent back her body with a delegation to show their condolence back to Rosett. But it provoked the Rosett Empire.
The current empress of Rosett, Nashia Rosario, loved her very much. She couldn't take her death.
As she opened the coffin and looked at her body, she knew the explanation they gave wasn't the truth. Because a noble vampire like her has high regeneration skills.
She can't die in this way. Also, she noticed the stab in her chest. That spot isn't from a sharp tool of mining. She recognized that immediately.
Being desperate and angry, she declared war against Zenith. That way, the war began between Zenith and Rosett. It was a terrifying bloody battle.
She personally led the war. In just a span of two years, she earned the name of "Rose-thorn of War".
She wielded her sword on the battlefield with grace. Her vampire powers and her army's power were top-notch. Zenith took all the casualties.
At first, they thought they would be able to win, since their power and army were bigger.
But they didn't take it into account that they were in constant war, which is why they weren't prepared to go head on with a powerful empire like Rosett.
The war dragged on for 10 years, but Zenith couldn't take any more casualties. They need time to prepare themselves.
So they proposed a peace-treaty for now. They agreed to give one of the kingdoms closer to Rosett.
