Chapter 253 Chapter 253 – Vivienne\'s Life 2/2

"Fairy, are you Vivienne?"

It was Ashford\'s first sentence when he saw the beautiful and gentle-looking girl. She was lying under the sun, enjoying the rays of heat during the winter. He was smitten right there.

"Yes, who are you?" Vivienne opened her eyes and shaded them with a palm while she got used to the light after opening her eyes. She found a handsome redhead crouching nearby.

"I\'m Felix Ashford. I was tasked with taking you on a mission with me to help you accumulate some experience and merit."

He did not like the idea of babysitting a 16-year-old girl at first, but now he loved it. He already had designs on the young girl. Her gentleness and beauty captured his heart.

\'Ah, another idiot that came to bother me.\' Vivienne thought to herself while smiling politely.

"What kind of mission?"

"We are going to collect some herbs. It will help you to learn to tell edible things apart from poisonous ones, as well as where to find all kinds of herbs when you are out on a journey and need to survive on your own."

He had already decided to make the mission longer than it should be.

"Do you have a mission token and Grandfather\'s handwritten orders?" She asked with a shred of hope that he didn\'t. It was her policy since a few years ago; she managed to delay quite some missions with this excuse, claiming that she was just cautious of people with ill intentions.

It was pure crap, as nobody would dare enter the Ashford clan\'s territory and pull off something that\'d harm any of their descendants, let alone a treasure of the whole sect like Vivienne. But since this was the formal procedure, they complied with her wishes.

Unfortunately, it stopped working lately.

"Of course, I know you strictly adhere to the formal procedure, so I\'ve come prepared." Felix pulled out a mission token and a handwritten order from Vivienne\'s adoptive grandfather out of his storage ring. The grandfather was the one directly in charge of her well-being, so his responsibilities were that of a parent.

"Ah, all right. We can go out in three days. I must prepare and deal with a few things beforehand."

"Of course. I will come to pick you up in 72 hours then."

"Ah, you don\'t have to be so punctual."

From that point on, Felix often came to visit Vivienne. The clan supported him with all their might, hoping to see this marriage through. The seeds with the cultivation body had their whole constitution changed, meaning even their babies would have better genes than normal.

While the most effective thing would be to marry the sect seeds to one another, the elite clans would never agree to that. It\'d result in opening a new elite clan of superior beings, which would be a great threat to their superiority in the sect. By taking the sect seeds into their clans, they\'d enhance their future generations instead.

Vivienne always tried to reject his advances but to no avail. The clan always arranged for them missions together, or seated them next to one another in formal events of the clan or the sect.

"You\'re turning more beautiful with every day that passes, Sleepy Princess," Felix tried to flirt with a tease as the two set out on another mission together.

\'Prick.\'

Slowly, Vivienne\'s language turned ruder in her mind while she forced out smiles every day. She felt frustrated by the clan\'s pressure on her to accept Felix, but she was always loyal to her clan despite her laziness.

She was never bothered by her lack of friends, as she counted her servants and bodyguards as ones. Thus, she never noticed that the other descendants of elite clans never tried to approach her beyond a few polite words, referring to her always only as the "sect seed".

At least not until that fateful day when a collar was placed around her neck, and a certain red-eyed kid poisoned her mind with a few words.

Now, 27 years after being strengthened and 28 years after being born, Vivienne suddenly noticed she had no true friends in the sect other than one horny man over 40 years old than her.

\'If they treat me well only to use me, does it mean they won\'t let me ascend? After all, I might be able to ascend before I even turn 300 or 400, wouldn\'t it waste their resources?\'

Vivienne pondered while eating some grapes a servant brought her. Losing some of her trust in the clan, for the first time since he began wooing her twelve years ago, she refused to meet Felix in the next three months since they left the secret realm.

Only now, after recurring requests from her grandfather, she met him again.

\'I wonder, what the Devil\'s Heir\'s intentions are by telling me these things. Did he just want to reduce the chances I betray him, or to weaken the sect by taking away a sect\'s seed? But I\'m a single person. Even if I turn against them, their power wouldn\'t be shaken enough even to drop a single rank in the sect\'s ranking.\'

She did not know what to feel toward her captor. She understood that they were enemies because of her origins, so he had to either make her submit or kill her, hence, she didn\'t blame him for his actions. She was still bitter about it, but he didn\'t add any troublesome tasks as long as he wasn\'t in any danger, which she felt grateful for.

\'Why did he even come to challenge the Four Seasons Sect in the first place? Did he go mad for some reason? Why would an individual make a top 5 sect their enemies? Oh well, whatever, let\'s relax until I have to save him from his stupidity.\'

Vivienne was not sure why, but she felt a strange urge to protect Ken from her sect. She reclined back in bed and thought of a plan for what to do in case Ken was to be captured and needed her help.
