欲望保姆

[Charles POV]

A few hours after the vampire attack, I checked on all my employees. The attack was over, and all the vampires that rebelled were naturalized. The public perception of vampires has degraded, and they will probably be treated terribly for a long time.

"Prince, you look fine. How\'s the rest of my people doing?"

"You should give me a raise. I saved everyone due to my intuition. It\'s a must-have for an assassin."

I paid Prince a million for his work. I never took Prince as a money grubber when I first met him, but it was understandable, considering I was his boss.

"Just to let you know, your reputation is shaky. There are recordings of you everywhere in the world."

"There\'s no privacy in a world like this. What should I expect?"

"Not only is your reputation shaky, but you will be approached more for your power. Your power to give immortality is leaked."

"..."

I suppose it was only natural for these greedy people to approach me. Prince gave me a greedy look and wanted the same.

"What? Do you want it? Just say it."

"As your employee. It would make my job easier."

Immortality was tempting for those who lived for a short period of time. While Prince wasn\'t prideful, asking for more from me was embarrassing. So to hide it, he indirectly asked for it. Since Prince wasn\'t annoyed, I gave it to him without reservation.

"Charles. Before you go back, there\'s someone who wants to meet you. She said she knows what you\'re looking for."

Does she know where Constance was being kept? If so, I had to do my best to meet them quickly.

"Lead the way. I want to get this day over with."

I treated Prince as my butler; he led the way. I wonder if I will be blackmailed for this information. Thinking about the meeting I would have, many choices could be made.

And if this were a waste of time, I would ensure the other party suffered something worse than these vampires.

"Charles, she\'s here."

We arrived at a house and knocked on the door. A woman had come out.

"Charles, I have been waiting for you. I\'m Sasha. It\'s nice to meet you."

The lady who wanted to meet me introduced herself and greeted me, leading me to the living room. We sat down and began to discuss.

"So, before we get to your favor, what is it that you know?"

"Your lover was captured. I know where she is."

"..."

Should I take control of her now? There were many suspicious facts about her. The first thing I noticed about her was that she was not a resident of this world.

Next, she wanted a favor, especially coming from me. There were many people from other worlds, but she wanted it from me.

There is also the point of her coming at a convenient time. I can\'t help but think that she had planned this.

"Fine, what do you want for that information?"

Instead of playing around with our worlds, I stated her terms. Was I desperate? The answer was yes. Even so, the woman in front of me was my benefactor. Sasha, the person who wanted to do business with me, smiled.

"My terms are pretty simple. You may not know this, but I\'m from the Barum Alliance."

"..."

"What\'s that?"

"..."

"Charles. Those are the invaders you destroyed."

"Which one?"

I didn\'t remember which attacker that was. Were they the lizardmen or the novice hunter? I didn\'t bother to remember since I had easily wiped them out.

"It\'s the group with seven worlds invading."

Prince said that had me remember who they were. I then looked at Sasha, wondering how she got there. Did she want revenge?

"You may wonder how I got here, but our world didn\'t participate in the war. There were ten worlds in the Barum alliance, but only seven joined. With my ability to see the future, I knew the outcome."

Sasha\'s abilities are an upgrade of Reina\'s abilities. But how does she know where Constance is? Knowing the future wouldn\'t give you the edge to know everything.

The ability to see the future was limited for most people. It\'s a power that could overcome fate itself. Agnus had told me about these kinds of powers.

Most future-sighted people had limited powers. An example would be the power to see a few seconds into the future. These people had the power to gain the advantage in a fight.

Then we have people who can see glimpses of future events. They won\'t have a clear image but must fill in the blanks.

Reina could only see a happy ending, and there was a limit to how much she could see. You get my point. I wonder what limitations Sasha had.

"So, what\'s your reason for telling me that? I don\'t see the correlation."

"I want the world of Earth to have an alliance with mine. Is that too much to ask?"

That was doable. We had no alliance. And if Sasha lied, I could quickly get rid of them. She\'s asking for more danger if she lies.

"Very well."

I had accepted her alliance. Now that I had accepted it, she had to tell me the information I needed.

"Now, the information."

As impatient as I am. I wanted the information now. The quicker I got the information, the faster Constance could be saved.

"Your love is being kept in the World of the Unknown. It\'s a fifth-rank world shrouded in mysteries. For some reason, the system can\'t obtain information, and the vampires there have a way to bypass the system."

"Do you know the way we could enter?"

"It\'s pretty tedious."

I asked how I could get into the place, but Sasha sighed deeply when she tried to explain the details.

"Well, there are many options, but the quickest way is to capture a high-ranking vampire. They will have a device allowing you to go to their base."

"As for the other option, you\'re in luck. There\'s a space fissure that opens every five years. That space fissure would lead you directly to the World of the Unknown. In four days, it will open."

A space fissure? Sounds pretty dangerous. But if it\'s me, then I will be able to handle it. She hasn\'t told me the location of the place. I wanted to urge her to hurry.

"Where would the fissure open?"

Capturing a vampire would be ideal, but I don\'t know any high-ranking ones. Finding them would be a hassle when I had no clue where they were.

"You\'re also in luck with this. The space fissure is in the world of Celestial."

I felt my mood going up with all the luck coming along. The next part ruined my mood, which had been lifted by her words earlier.

"But there\'s a problem. You should know the world of Celestial is a fifth-rank world. The world is as dangerous as it can be."

"Between the gateway to Hell and the Celestial, a portal will open. Not only will there be gatekeepers, but also people who want to enter. You will also have to fight the people who will defend the space fissure."

"Is there something else you want?"

An alliance between our worlds would have significantly benefited her, but I doubt that would be what she wants.

"When my world is in danger, I want you to give me your full support."

That was understandable. I owed Sasha a great deal with the information she gave. Sasha must have seen the future to know what she wants.

"Did your power predict this outcome?"

"Yes."

"I\'m curious, what are your powers\' limitations? You have given me a great deal of information. You don\'t need to tell me if you\'re uncomfortable."

I may need Sasha\'s abilities more in the future. That was why this alliance we had benefited both of us.

"It\'s not that great. I needed months to see the full picture. I\'m sorry that I couldn\'t assist with your lover\'s incident. I didn\'t register that information until a few hours ago."

"This situation isn\'t your fault. I\'m grateful that you have told me everything. I will give you a gift. I hope for the future. I can use your assistance."

Sasha smiled brightly, seeing that her deal had worked. She had figured it out without telling me what I had given her.

"I better leave. I have much to prepare."

"Until next time."

I left the room with Prince coming to my side.

"Prince. Tell all my visitors that I will be gone. After my return, you will be paid then. I need to go visit Reina."

After telling Prince his job, he left in a hurry. Before I returned to Celestial, I had to go to Reina. Reina should be with her parents. It\'s been a while since I visited them. With my curse, nothing terrible should happen to her family.
