With his uncle's support, Valor slowly started recruiting the elders of the family to his side. He created his own force and even allied with many powerful humans.

This was when the seat of the family head started shaking.

Now the only thing left for him was to obtain the inheritance. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨m

It was then that he got to know from an elder the real reason why he couldn't get the inheritance and such conditions were forced on him.

He can also get to inherit even in Duke rank. But the inheritance mark was left on Louis when he was previously decided to be the heir. Of course, Louis had no idea about that.

But if the mark stays on Louis, he won't be able to get the inheritance.

And so, an extremely terrifying thought emerged inside his mind.

Let's kill him.

***

*Boom*

*Bang*

*Thwack* 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

...

Continuous punches landed on Valor's body. As he tried his best to dodge.

*ARGH*

"S-Stop."

*Haah*

*Haah*

*Ptui*

Valor spits out a mouthful of blood as the rain of punches stops.

His face was unrecognizable. Louis didn't continue to beat him anymore. Of course, he had held back otherwise Valor would have died by the first punch.

"NILES!" Louis shouted.

"Yes, master." Niles, the Butler bowed and asked respectfully.

"Throw the thrash out." Saying that Louis returned inside the mansion.

Seeing the back of Louis, Valor gritted his teeth in anger and left the mansion.

Don't underestimate a vampire's physique. This much damage can be recovered easily.

"I would have given you a simple death. But now I'll make you despair."

Valor murmured under his breath while leaving.

Louis stood inside his office and watched through the hole he just created. His expression was solemn.

"Did he leave?"

A familiar voice brought him out of his thoughts. It was Claire.

Louis turned back with a sigh and replied.

"Yeah, just when I thought everything would be over once I leave the family. We were dragged back to the trouble."

Claire sighed gently and hugged him.

"Don't worry, I am here with you."

"Um-hm." Claire's comfort brought peace to Louis' mind.

"Niles."

"Yes, master." The old Butler asked.

"Call the Counts. Tell them it's an emergency." Louis's tone was extremely serious.

The old butler left to carry on the task.

"Claire, prepare to leave."

Claire nodded as she had expected this outcome.

At this moment a soft voice came from behind them.

"Where are we going? Daddy~"

Hearing that they were going somewhere, Aurora asked in doubt. Louis was in dismay about how to answer her.

"Are we going on a vacation?" Aurora asked with her eyes sparkling.

"... Yes." Louis nodded.

"Yay!" Little Aurora jumped in excitement. Suddenly, she thought of something and stopped. She asked nervously.

"Then can we take Emily with us?" Emily was Aurora's playmate and also the child of Louis' vassal.

"Don't worry, Emily and her father will also go with us."

"Yay~ thank you, Dad, ~" Aurora smiled sweetly and hugged her dad. She was very excited to go on a vacation.

Louis was extremely regretful seeing his sweet daughter smiling. If only he was strong enough to face everyone they wouldn't have ended up like this.

But now is not the time to think about this. They need to escape.

***

Half an hour later.

8 Vampire counts stood in front of Louis.

"Sir, what do you need from us?" A vampire with a slightly tall body and brown hair asked. It was Kret McCartney. He was the father of Emily McCartney.

Kret was Louis' vassal. He had served him for a long time.

All the other counts also glanced in Kret's direction and waited for Louis to speak. They too wanted to know what was going on.

Louis took a deep breath and started speaking.

"It's like this, Valor's maternal uncle is now a King rank. So with this opportunity, Valor is trying to get the throne and the inheritance in advance. But for some reason, he is unable to. As far as I can tell it is somehow related to me. So his target is me."

Sure enough, Louis could easily understand the situation and the enemy's aim. He had not been a rightful heir to the throne for no reason.

As soon as Valor arrived, Louis had already started analyzing the situation.

"Sir, do you mean lord Valor is going to attack you? Is he not afraid of his Majesty?"

"He is afraid, that is why he hadn't acted yet," Louis replied and continued.

"For the last few years, he had been going out accumulating power."

"His Majesty allowed that?"

"Father can't stop him from recruiting people. So although he knows he didn't do anything."

"So him coming here and relaying the news means one thing. He is giving me a choice. Either I stay here and wait for him to get the throne and die, or I leave this place and die being ambushed by his men. It is just the difference of time." Louis had already seen through Valor's intention.

"How can he do that?" One of the counts lost his temper.

"I expected this to happen someday, after all, in front of interests, anything is possible. So what if we are a family." Louis said lightly with a sigh.

Everyone was silent for a moment.

Then a man with a big moustache spoke up.

"So what is your plan?" This person was Phil Gregory. The only Duke rank vassal of Louis and also his best friend.

Phil had a fierce personality and because he was very close to Louis he always talked casually with him. Louis also didn't mind that. Rather he would feel uncomfortable if Phil talked with him respectfully.

"Since you called us here, I'm sure you have already made up your mind." Phil continued with a smirk.

Louis smiled faintly and replied.

"Yes, you are right. I have already decided. We are going to leave."

With Louis' words, everyone got serious.

"I have already prepared countermeasures for his ambush."

And then Louis started explaining the Escape plan.
