The Bored Immortal

"No way...Tell me more about him!" Viktor eagerly asked as he tugged on Nyissa's hands, who understood why he was reacting like this and said, "Well, we don't have much information on him, but he was a werewolf, like you but a really powerful one. His name was not for nothing since it was said that he ruled the night...the king of the night. Whenever it was night, the myth says that even gods would fall before him. All the werewolf clans worship him as one of their important deities, I think. He was like a god, I guess. Maybe if you ever get the chance to visit a werewolf clan, they should have more information about what you want to know. Since he was said to have existed millions and millions of years ago, it only gets harder to get more information on him," Nyissa had a feeling that Viktor was probably related to the Silver Night King.

'Could he be his descendant?'

Viktor squinted his eyes, hearing that this entity existed so long ago. But then he remembered that the place he rested was said to be millions of years old based on experts he knew.

Still, he didn't really know his exact age. Just because the whole structure was that old didn't mean that he was the same age as well.

That was why he could only guess or speculate his age but never be sure of it. All he could do was keep track of his present age as well, which he started counting the moment he woke up for the first time in this world.

"Ha...I guess I really need to seek out these vampire and werewolf clans. Still, how did this supposedly unkillable entity die? Why don't we hear anything about him now?" Viktor asked the most pressing question.

Nyissa said with a contemplative expression, "I don't know...rumors are he just disappeared suddenly while others say he got punished by a group of gods who wanted to curb his bloodthirst and imprisoned him in some place for eternity. Nobody really knows. That is why I don't even know if such a being existed once. It was just too long ago, and people could twist or exaggerate stories the more time passed. I am sure we understand it the best."

"Right...history is like a clay that can be molded by anyone who wants to make a mark," Viktor said with a chuckle.

Nyissa then suddenly realized how dark the skies were becoming and said with a startled expression, "Oh no! I have to go and get ready. It will be time soon."

Viktor smiled and said as he pulled her closer, making her breath freeze, "Oh...seems like somebody is quite excited to get engaged, hm?"

"I just don't want to be late…" Nyissa said in a low voice as she avoided his icy yet burning gaze.

Viktor let her go as he said with a chuckle, "Okay, okay. Go...I bet, tonight, you would be the most radiant moon mankind would have ever seen today."

"Viktor, please…" Nyissa felt embarrassed though inwardly, she couldn't help feel flutters in her belly.

"I am going now…You should get in touch with Ayana and get ready as well," She quickly turned around and said as she left with hurried steps while Viktor watched her leave with an amused smile.

Viktor made his way back to the guest quarters Ayana had shown him before, and as expected, he found her waiting before his door, having a light chat with Brad.

However, she quickly noticed Viktor's presence and had a complicated expression seeing him.

"Grandson! You did well!" Brad noticed Viktor too and was very happy and eager to go and give him a hug.

"Grandpa Puto? What do you mean?" Viktor asked just to tease a certain someone standing behind with a skeptical expression.

"Brat, you didn't tell me you were going to marry the most beautiful woman in this whole country!" Brad felt a bit aggrieved Viktor didn't reveal this news to him before.

When he heard the patriarch announce it, he was just as shocked as anybody else since he remembered seeing this woman named 'Nyissa' for the first time after arriving on the shores of the Wailing Hills.

She was too serious and strict, making him think that she would surely be a celibate for her whole life.

But only now he realized that he yet again underestimated the charm of the man standing before him with a smug smile.

Still, yet another shocker was that Viktor was going to marry a woman. He had never seen him marry anyone for all these years since the time he knew him.

Because of this, he became a bit sad and worried for Taya, though he knew Viktor wouldn't abandon Taya because of this.

Viktor saw through Brad's worries when he noticed how his expression changed for a moment there and whispered, "Don't worry...When the time is right, I will get her as well."

'This guy is a born player!'

"Aha, good, good," Brad was finally able to let his heart rest in peace. He felt that he couldn't die till he saw Taya happy and settle down with the man she loved.

"What are you talking about?" Ayana asked suspiciously with one of her brows raised. In her hand, she was still holding Viktor's robes he had to wear for the engagement ceremony.

"Nothing at all. Come. Are these my clothes to wear tonight?" Viktor asked with a smile while Brad subtly sneaked away, wishing Viktor good luck.

In Viktor's room, Ayana handed him over the robes with a reluctant look before saying, "Look, I don't know what kind of charm you pulled on my Master, but...do you really like my Master?"

Ayana wanted to know why all this was suddenly happening.. She thought she knew her Master best, and according to her, there was no way her Master would suddenly decide to marry a man she met not more than a day ago.
