Cordilia let herself be taken to the Imperial Palace, expressionless and brushed off the rough treatment.

Cordilia's lips quirked up when she was brought in front of the throne where the new King, Anthony Baltazar, had sat on and the Ministers sitting below the platform he was sitting on... It made Cordilia feel like she was in a court.

Cordilia was still in her victorian maid uniform, without the frilly hat.

She was pushed behind, a silent word for "Kneel"

But how could she kneel!?

Cordilia is a prideful bitch, the past world shows much how her pride and ego could go against the Sky! She did not dare even kneel infront of the Protagonist, so you think I, your mother, would kneel to you!?

The Past People who wants to knock Cordilia off of her high pedestals: "....." 'That's right! Go to the back and fall in line! The heck are you cutting in line for!?'

"I kneel to those who are worthy of my knee, My Master*, and A'Yuan. Apart from them, I'd rather break than bend! Dignity is priceless" Cordilia sneered and raised her chin, looking at Anthony straight to his eyes provocatingly

(*My Master= she was referring to the Master of A'Yuan who collected her soul back in 0.1 and from the last Chapter of Light, Camera, Action, the third guy. But she was misunderstood by the others that she was referring to Lukas)

Cordilia felt the piercing stare and four pairs of Ruby eyes clashed in the air.

"You're loyal and unyielding but you don't know which way the wind is blowing. In that case, you should just kill her. Sooner or later that brat will come to get you cold corpse. Might as well give him the Skeleton to accompany him in his coffin, 6 feet under" Anthony said coldly

Cordilia sneered before anyone could react, she disappeared from their sight.

'So fast!'

A grunt and thud could be heard and their attention directed to the throne and the sight made their hearts turn cold. Cordilia was currently sitting on the King's throne like she owned it, lazily leaning on one side and resting her chin on the back of her hand, on her other hand was the crown, twirling it like a basketball, her leg had crossed over to her other leg and she had stepped on the kneeling Anthony.

This casual and domineering attitude bore heavy pressure among the Vampires in the throne, the blood lust was very thick and the killing intent in the air made it very hard to breath.

The door had slammed shut as well and all of the candles had been snuffed out, the moon light shone down upon Cordilia, making her Ruby red eyes even more eerie and dangerous. A smile yet not a smile spread over her beautiful face.

'A' Yuan, thank you for working hard' Cordilia thought

A'Yuan who was by the windows creating effect on making it float, [No problem!]

"I don't kneel infront of people, stepping on them is even better" Cordilia said with an arrogant smile, like a queen.

"......"

"......"

"......."

"...... You!" Anthony's protest was cut off by Cordilia putting more pressure on her foot, a sickening crack and a shrill agonising scream could be heard, Vampire usually don't feel pain, to have a Prince even let out such a sound..... It made their scalp turned numb.

'Is she really only a newborn!? I don't believe it!'

"So.... Any objections? You don't mind if I sit down on this chair? It's kind of comfortable" Cordilia smirked seeing their expression.

'You're already occupying on it. Do we have the ability to snatch it from you?'

And so, the throne was snatched once more by a Palace Maid. This of course was only known in the Ministers per order of Her Majesty. They did not dare spread it outside when one unfortunate Minister had planned a rebellion and gathered followers, before they could even started planning, Cordilia barged in and was the only one to come out alive.

This snuff out the protest from the masses. They had eventually learned it a hundred years later. They know the name of their Majesty and dare not utter her name outside. The other Vampire Clan in the East would ask who their Ruler was and they would answer the name of Anthony Baltazar who had been spending a luxurious time in a prison... Its not really a Prison, but... Castle Arrest.

He still had the power and authority over the Kingdom but Cordilia held the Absolute Control. She often swings by and check what is happening before disappearing again to travel all over the world in a leisure manner, of course avoiding Lukas.

"......" 'Her Majesty really is weird'

"Your Majesty.... The problem between the Werewolves and Vampires are are getting heated up" Anthony said, Cordilia had come and it was on time for this issue to spring up

Cordilia paused for a moment, "Once they crossed the border, even one inch of their toe has stepped in, kill them. Put warning all over the border that you will do as such. They can protest however they want outside the border but eliminate each and everyone who breach the border and likewise, we vampires shall not cross over. What? Does the kingdom lack food that we'll go over their territories to plunge? We're not animals nor savages. If they want to complain, then talking face to face is not a problem, Laoniang is not afaid" Cordilia said, A'Yuan could only sigh.

Vampires: "....." 'What you said is reasonable'

Werewolves "......" 'You don't have to insult us okay!? Aren't Vampires mutated form of bat's!? You're animals too okay!'

This law was suddenly enforced and blood shed spilled.

It didn't take long before the message had been sent and Cordilia casually went over with Anthony and the Ministers.

"Catherine, you damned bitch! What is this unreasonable law!?" the Werewolf king roared

"I am already here, why are you yelling I, your mother's name for!?" Cordilia spat back

"And I am not a bitch, I am a vampire, not a dog" she added

"Besides, does the Werewolf Clan not teach their young on how to read and understand common language? Us Vampires has the right to enforce laws in our own territory. What does that have to do with the wolf clan? It is your kind that broke the law first, like it was stated we shall not take out word back and as the law goes full reverse. A vampire that breach your barrier can be killed by us as well. This law is absolute to prevent further contact with one another and opinions clashed. There shouldn't be any killing if everyone follows the rules no?" Cordilia said casually

"......" 'What you said is true.... We can't refute that'

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Cordilia ruthlessly slapped the Werewolves in their faces with her words. It stings okay!?

It was true, centuries has passed and Werewolves and Vampires really don't mix, so enforcing such law.... Is really not bad and there was no problem..... So why did the Werewolf Alpha come over to cause trouble.... Why to get slapped in the face of course!

'This Vampire Queen... Is not simple... Must avoid and not offend her in the future'

They had been unable to shout their protest earlier because of the frightening Aura Cordilia had released.......

Fuck, is she really a former Palace maid!? Your mother! I don't believe it! Which part of her is a Palace maid!?
