My Vampire Little Sister-Chapter 177 Wedding Of The Century (1)
The marriage of Jin Valter.
News of the wedding between the Vampire Progenitor and his four lovers spread like wildfire, and in time, it was the only thing the Vampire World could talk about. While people bemoaned that four of the Vampire World's most desirable flowers were finally being wedded, most understood that they had no chance against the Progenitor.
Slayer of Demon Lords. Chairman of Valter Inc. Head of the Valter House. Most powerful being on the planet… The list of accolades he acquired was endless and staggering.
At this point, it was a mystery how the man was still single.
But come Monday; the man would no longer be the most eligible bachelor on the market. He'll be the husband to four unobtainable flowers.
Naturally, just as other male Vampires thirsted after the four beauties, some females also longed for the new Progenitor. Thinking that they had a shot as a concubine, countless women sent in their applications through various means. At the height of it all, over a hundred applicants were pouring in by the day.
However, for some mysterious reason, the applications stopped. No one knows why the girls had given up their hopes, but there had been some mysterious sightings during that period.
Stories about how harmless plants would grow into terrorising vines or how their entire house would turn into a freezer overnight. No matter the reason, Jin got his peace, and the wedding preparations moved rapidly.
Many speculated it would be a large wedding, but neither Jin nor his future wives cared about that. Therefore, an intimate wedding with about a hundred invitees was planned. Only those who knew the Progenitor and those close to his wives were considered for the invite.
And slowly but surely, the wedding of the century was taking shape.
Amongst the attendees are distinguished individuals like Matriarch Innocence from the Everwinter House and Sirius Moonreaver from the Moonreaver House. Ysabelle's family, mainly the prime bloodline of the Blackburn House, were also attending, including Ysabelle's father, the Patriarch of the Blackburn House, Enzo Blackburn.
And who could forget the fairy-like Elven Priestess from the Elven Forest? She and the Shadowgarden House's leader, Eminence Veralyn, attended as Rosa's parents.
With such an all-star line-up, one would be forgiven if they'd thought the Valter House was planning to consolidate its power in the Vampire World. In fact, there were whispers amongst the Holy Church that Jin was trying to create a new World Order with their five Vampire Houses standing at the top.
But Jin didn't listen to the noise. Or rather, the noise couldn't reach him when he was engrossed in planning the wedding.
Jin wished to make this wedding one to remember, one that his wives would never forget and be proud to declare him as their husband.
Therefore, he spared no expense in ensuring the wedding was the most grandiose and gorgeous event seen in centuries.
Firstly, he chose a venue with a picturesque scene, a meadow overlooking the ocean. Next, using his creation magic, he created an ethereal cathedral which mixed elements from each of his wives' nature into it.
For Irina, he created icy pillars with depictions of their relationship. From the first day they'd met when they were children to all the trials and tribulations they faced, and finally, the image of them getting married.
For Lilith, there was a stellar moon hanging over the massive cathedral, creating an optical illusion. Whenever one stared into the dazzling moon, they would be engulfed in a happy mirage showing all the happy memories Jin and Lilith shared, and they would be forever blessed with happy matrimony. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚w𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m
Ysabelle's honour was a gorgeous eternal flame that flickers throughout the church. Whenever Ysabelle looked into the fire, she would be blessed with all the happy times she had with Jin, and her soul would experience peace.
And finally… Rosa's monument was an enthralling World Tree sprout that stood as their minister.
Although Jin was getting married, no one was qualified to act as his minister. They couldn't let any of their parents do it, nor could they call in the Holy Church. Therefore, Jin found an amazing compromise. He would let the World Tree, or more precisely, Sora, officiate the wedding.
Everything was shaping up to be the most glorious wedding in history. The distinguished guests, the impeccable scenery, the godly cathedral… Everything was done to perfection.
And when the day came…
"Welcome!"
A pretty receptionist took the invitation card from the first visitor of the wedding, wholly ignoring his blackened expression. After briefly scanning the card and verifying its authenticity, the girl asked for the man's name.
"May I know your name and if you're a friend of the brides or groom?"
"Friend? I'm the bride's goddamn brother!" Sirius Moonreaver snorted and slammed his palm on the table. A magical pressure was emitted from his body as he attempted to force the receptionist into submission. But alas, his opponent was utterly unfazed.
"Excuse me, which bride are you referring to?"
"... Are you making fun of me?"
"No sir, please tell me your name and affiliation, or else I will be forced to remove you."
"Force to remove me? You little…"
"Family of Lilith! We're family of Lilith!"
Before Sirius could do anything to the receptionist, his silver-haired companion stopped his hand. Holding back her desire to hit her clan leader, Capella simply smiled and said:
"Sirius Moonreaver and Capella Moonreaver. We're invited under Lilith's family." 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m
The receptionist looked at the two individuals before finally giving a professional smile.
"Yes, I have verified your identities. Your seat number is reflected behind your invitation card. If you have trouble finding seats, please approach one of our many helpful staff."
"Thank you, is there any chance we get to see the bride?"
"I'm sorry, unless specifically ordered by them, we cannot let you approach the bridal chambers. If you want, I will put in a request for you!"
"Please do so," Capella hid her twitching smile before dragging Sirius far away from the robotic receptionist. It was only after they had cleared the entrance that Capella finally unleashed her grip on Sirius' mouth and allowed his annoying voice to resonate.
"Capella, why did you stop me?!"
"Lord Sirius, please behave yourself! I know your love for your sister has grown heavier since she left, but we can't embarrass ourselves here!"
"Still, I can teach that receptionist a lesson!"
Sirius was about to blow his top, and it took everything in Capella's power to calm him down. Truth be told, Sirius' reaction was somewhat expected. While verbally he had accepted Lilith's marriage with Jin, emotionally, he was still the overprotective brocon of the past.
Blinded by his obsession with his little sister, he missed something critical he usually wouldn't.
"Hah… Look closely, Sirius. Do you think that receptionist is an average person?"
"..."
Finally understanding the hint behind Capella's words, the Moonreaver Lord turned his attention to the receptionist and used his superior eyes to look through his body. Obviously sensing that, the young woman flinched and looked back at the pair with hollow eyes. However, a professional smile was plastered over her uneasiness as she tended to the other visitor.
"That girl… She's not a Vampire?" Sirius marvelled in shock.
"And she's not a human either," Capella added her two cents. "I heard from Lilith that Jin was trying to replicate how the Holy Church creates Angels, and well… I guess he'd succeeded."
"You're kidding…"
Sirius' vale eyes widened as an unfamiliar set of emotions ran through his mind. Shock that such a feat was possible. Awe that someone other than the Holy Church was able to create Angels. And finally, outright terror at Jin's explosive growth.
"He's able to create Angels now… Would we even stand a chance against him?"
"Given that he's defeated all three Demon Lords, I doubt there's anyone on the planet who could match up against him," Capella sighed as well, not knowing what to feel about being overtaken by a man who was less than thirty years old and one year ago, was barely able to match her in combat.
"We're fortunate that Lady Lilith has captured his heart. Otherwise, our Moonreaver House would likely be relegated to the side."
"..."
With a heavy heart, Sirius could only accept his defeat. Ideally, he would like his precious little sister to remain pure and virtuous forever and to inherit the Moonreaver House once she comes of age. But since she had chosen her path, and that path included a monster called Jin Valter, all Sirius could do was accept it.
"Oh, why the long face? It's your sister's happy day! Shouldn't you be more upbeat?"
As Sirius contemplated watching his sister walk down the aisle, a booming voice broke him free from his daydream. General Enzo, who had arrived a few minutes earlier and had noticed Sirius' entire interaction with the receptionist, chuckled as he walked towards the man with a broad and massive grin.
"General Enzo… I'd thought you would be able to sympathise with how I feel, given that your only daughter is getting married too."
"HAHA!!! Why would I feel down? Yes, I might feel lonely, but I'm glad that Ysabelle has found such a splendid man."
"Even though he's marrying three other girls alongside your daughter?"
"Haha, as if we're ones to judge. Vampire relationships have always been messy. There have been heterosexual, homosexual, polyamorous and polygamous relationships! And a man like Jin having four wives… That's normal in our world. Not everyone can be like you, abstaining from marriage even after a thousand years."
"... My clan's well-being is my happiness."
"And I applaud you for your abstinence," the massive man chortled. "But ultimately, it's your sister's choice on who she wants to marry. Even if it means marrying into a family with sister wives."
"Hmph, aren't you the wise one?"
"I have lived much longer than you, after all."
Sirius wanted to get the final word in, but before he could do so, the wedding bells started to ring. With all the guests present, the first part of the wedding could finally commence. The bells struck at the auspicious hour, causing all visitors to raise their heads to the skies.
And surprisingly enough…
"This…"
"Don't tell me…"
Voices of admiration and surprise echoed through the meadow as every pair of eyes were glued to the sky. Light soon dimmed away as darkness filled the void of the blue empyrean skies. Soon, the stars that were only visible at night were now in full view, and the supposed weakness of Vampires was now completely covered up.
The massive Sun that glowed overhead, the symbol of life and power, was now being blocked by the luminous moon.
"He created an Eclipse just for his wedding… Seriously, just how over the top could he get?"
General Enzo let out a dry laugh, not knowing what to feel at that moment. The same could be said about Sirius. Which maniac would create an entire Eclipse just to get a better picture for his wedding?
And well, it didn't take long for the main character to take centre stage.
A suave young man floated down from the peak of the Eclipse. Dressed in an impeccable three-piece white tuxedo, the man looked like something out of a fairy tale. Royal finishings with gold and silver jewellery were laced all over the man's lapel. Symbols depicting the Valter House were embroidered over his entire suit making the man seem more distinguished than any ordinary person.
And when he finally opened his eyes to reveal the shining rubies within… Everyone present felt a chill run up their spine.
With the most disgustingly handsome smile one could ever see, Jin opened his mouth and said:
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to our wedding!"
