I Became a Foreign Worker Loved by Transcendents

Chapter 150: Successor Planning

Vampire.

They were a ‘parasitic race’ that had infiltrated the societies of the dominant races of this world since the beginning and sought to use them secretly.

Their innate charm, mesmerizing abilities, and activity during the night when most sentient beings were asleep were the results of such tendencies being emphasized.

Destined from birth to stand above others, they instinctively crave to see themselves as noble beings and act accordingly.

One of the things that sealed this instinct was aesthetics.

It was a philosophy and belief that noble beings absolutely adhered to, a concept that could even be defined as faith.

“Enjoy your meal~”

Among the vampires who believed in such aesthetics, Seherazade had a bizarre aesthetic that marked her as a ‘rebel’ even among heretics.

To vampires who worship elegance and purity, dirtying and humiliating oneself was something that must be avoided at all costs.

Especially for a True Ancestor to appear in front of a human in only underwear, eating from a dog bowl without using their hands, was unimaginable.

“Ugh, eating this disgusting meal after labor is so thrilling that I might get addicted~♥”

Seherazade, who committed such absurd acts without hesitation, blatantly flirted and glanced at Crown Prince Seis.

But he didn’t give her even the slightest bit of attention.

He just focused on the state affairs, looking over the documents piled on his desk.

“…Your Highness, are you perhaps ignoring me?”

“There’s a lot of work piled up.”

“Oh, come on~ Even though a maid showed such disgraceful behavior, shouldn’t you do something? Like… punishing me with a whip or making me walk naked?”

“It’s a waste of time.”

Complete indifference to her expectations of punishment.

For a True Ancestor like her, his attitude of ignoring her disgraceful behavior was even more humiliating, as she considered herself noble.

“Oh♡ This cold reaction… That’s why I like you♡”

Seherazade trembled, feeling a chill from such humiliation.

The ecstasy on her face remained unchanged from what she had seen since birth.

To the point where one might think she wouldn’t hesitate to enter a brothel naked if given the chance…

No, she might have already experienced such things, given how long she has lived.

-Flap.

But the past of this hideous vampire didn’t matter.

Seis ignored such scenes and focused on finishing his tasks in his office.

Although the succession ceremony had not yet taken place, he was the only one in this country who could replace his father, who no longer had the strength to stand.

“Isn’t it meaningless anyway? Soon, state affairs will become meaningless too.”

Did Seis’s actions seem pathetic to her?

Seherazade, who had been trembling with contempt, calmed down and soon pushed the documents off the desk, taking their place.

Her white skin showed under her white underwear. As she crossed her legs, her curves were highlighted, and the deep darkness in between…

“We need to maintain appearances until the time comes.”

She blatantly tried to seduce him, but Seis only showed irritation without being swayed.

It was a natural result. He had been exposed to the magic of vampires since birth.

Having grown accustomed to their power over time, he had even developed immunity to the vampires’ enchantment.

“Appearances? Not because you have lingering attachments?”

And the only one who knew that was this deceitful vampire who had been watching him since ancient times.

Even so, she didn’t tell the other True Ancestors and kept it her secret, mocking the Crown Prince.

Did she consider it a challenge that the next leader, who should be under their control, was immune to their enchantment?

Whether there was enchantment or not, did she know that leaders like him would have no choice but to rely on them?

“Since I’m already here, let’s talk about something more practical, Your Highness.”

In any case, it was clear that the operation of state affairs would become meaningless over time.

Ignoring Seherazade, who was instigating this, Seis looked down at his hand, closed his eyes, and let out a small sigh.

Yes, playing the maid was just a hobby anyway.

If the other party came on strongly, he couldn’t resist, so if he had to go along with it, the sooner, the better.

“What do you want to talk about?”

“Well, for example, about the newly established organization?”

“Are you talking about the multiracial organization?”

“Hehe, it fits well, right? The multiracial alliance, which will become the master of the upcoming era along with the succession ceremony~!”

New Era.

That organization was a subordinate group created by the True Ancestors, who worshiped purity, gathering ‘purebloods’ of different races like themselves.

The races included in it ranged from demons to long-lived species, even the Aein species.

Anyone with pure blood and a suitable status could belong to the New Era and be given the opportunity to achieve their desires under the protection provided.

“Come to think of it, didn’t the scriptures of the Order say that a saint who took a pair of creatures on an ark opened a new era on the land after the flood? Hehe, if that’s the case, we are like the saint in those scriptures.”

“…Well, that’s rich coming from a vampire.”

All the while, they’ve despised and looked down on other races as inferior while parasitizing them.

“Even among us, there are many differing opinions on that matter.”

Seherazade began to boast, as if to show that such an assessment wasn’t wrong.

“Even if they are of a different race, if they are pureblood, they should be respected; no, those who are not of noble blood should be thoroughly exploited or discarded; or they should be made into managers of the livestock to be used in the upcoming New Era, and so on…”

“Which side are you on?”

“Hmm, I would prefer coexistence if possible.”

Laughing, Seherazade knelt in front of the Crown Prince.

Then, looking up at him, there was a sense of anticipation towards the livestock in front of her.

“Well, because our Crown Prince is also someone who can be called a pureblood. For you, who is just a servant, to rise to an equal position with us and become a leader of the New Era, the contempt I feel from that is enough to be called an ordeal, isn’t it?”

“……”

“…Why are you like that? Are you angry?”

The imperial Crown Prince looked down at her without a word. Born to be livestock.

Even though he had developed immunity to enchantment, he was still a weak human who had no choice but to comply with the current situation.

“Do you want to punch me? Or do you want to strangle me?”

Seherazade smiled, boldly presenting her neck to the Crown Prince.

As if hoping he wouldn’t endure the current patience and would attack her.

As if to show that it was exactly what she desired.

“If you want to, go ahead. Whatever you do, I’ll gladly accept it.”

Could he possibly be pitying her?

No, that’s not it.

The ordeal she pursued wasn’t because she enjoyed masochism itself, but because she was so bored that she couldn’t feel any other stimulation.

Her only enjoyment was closer to ‘sadism’, feeling joy from seeing a weak person who couldn’t muster the will to resist, even when seeing her at her lowest.

-Grab.

How could he play along with someone expecting that?

In the end, Seis lifted her body, carried her to his bedroom, and gently placed her on the bed as he spoke.

“Sleep.”

“…Your Highness, you know my sleeping time is in the morning, right?”

“Didn’t you say you wanted an ordeal?”

“Oh my~ Being neglected isn’t fun~ Even indifference should be done by my side to feel it~”

Even if she lay on the bed forcibly, it would just be boring.

Seherazade, grabbing his sleeve to get off the bed, whispered to him in a bitter voice.

“Then stay by my side until I fall asleep. If you like, I’ll give you some information.”

Information.

A vampire like her giving information to someone like him who wasn’t controlled by vampires.

Did she know what it meant to say that?

“…Tell me.”

Whatever it was, it would be good to get what he could.

When the Crown Prince sat on the bed, Seherazade laughed happily and spoke.

“Aren’t you curious? Where the other True Ancestors are now, besides me.”

“…They must be holding a festival somewhere.”

“As you said, the other True Ancestors, except me, are staying in the sanctuary of the Order until the succession ceremony. They say they are preparing something in cooperation with the Order… Hehe, it’s obvious. The reality is that they are enjoying banquets rather than planning.”

The sanctuary of Friga, the state religion of the empire.

It was a place where profane beings were never allowed to enter, but that was only what was officially revealed.

The Order had long since fallen into a blood supply farm for them and a livestock pen for raising sacrificial offerings for their banquets.

However, the leaders who knew the truth defined them as a ‘necessary evil’ and even coveted the power of the vampires.

To the point where they genuinely aimed to become servants by accepting their blood.

“Especially the blood of saints is very sweet. They are thoroughly managed and untouched by anyone, making them the best food for us.”

One of the leaders of the group that contributed to such corruption began to draw an ecstatic smile on her lips.

Was she imagining the blood of a saint she had once tasted?

“…Even with such delicacies waiting, you don’t join them.”

“Hehe, you say strange things~”

No, she had never once drunk the blood of a clergyman.

The only blood she drank after deciding to dominate humanity was that of the Imperial Family.

“You are as pure as a saint too… How could I give up the chance to have you exclusively?”

Seherazade finally embraced his body, which had sunk onto the bed, and bit his neck, sucking his blood.

It was unpleasant, but Seis finally decided to accept the sensation.

Even if his body weren’t swayed by the aphrodisiac, the information she provided would surely help his plan…

---

By the time early morning came after that.

Crown Prince Seis, who had laid Seherazade in the bedroom, quietly stepped into the private room connected to his own.

The walls there were filled with various newspapers circulating in the empire, copies of official documents, and notes of personally collected information.

-Swish, swish.

Seis filled the walls with the connected papers and drew lines with a pen, engraving the information at the places where the lines reached one by one into his mind.

The first information that caught his eye was about the multiracial alliance established under the leadership of the True Ancestors ahead of the upcoming succession ceremony.

‘The New Era Multiracial Alliance made up of purebloods.’

It included long-lived species, barbarians, and long-lifers who had been hiding after being defeated in the fight against humanity, as well as foreign raiders and the undead risen from death.

By bringing them together, the information that could be collected had increased far more than before.

‘The uncontrollable situation of the Demon King’s army due to the Demon King’s ennui, the death of the Corpse Lord, and the birth of the infinite predator originating from the Black Knight…’

In addition, the increasing proliferation of monsters, regional upheavals, the emergence of dungeons, and so on…

This world had countless dangers targeting humanity, and now there were no safe areas except for the empire.

But even without such catastrophes, humanity could collapse at any time without the help of the vampires…

‘The increasing rebellion forces and the political factions threatening the Imperial Family…’

Wasn’t humanity a race that started to antagonize each other as soon as there were no more races to oppose?

The signs of division within the safe empire were an inevitable step. This thought was further solidified when he captured the rebels who betrayed him and understood the current rebellion forces in the empire from them.

For a rebellion to be established, what was needed was not only justice and belief, and an idol to gather them, but also massive support and justification.

Even if they succeeded, other politicians, not the Imperial Family, would rule over humanity and eventually repeat the same mistakes.

‘The vampires are holding a banquet in the sanctuary of the Order before the succession ceremony.’

So, to win their favor, he must appease them.

At least until his plan was completed.

-Swish, swish.

He felt the completion of his plan gradually falling into place as he drew lines connecting the clues.

Seeing his plan coming together, he thought.

‘Freedom comes with responsibility.’

He repeated the words that became the trigger to open up the future countless times in his mind.

‘The harsher the world, the more people long to become someone’s slave because they can’t bear the responsibility.’

And the place where his pen finally stopped was the center of the wall.

There was an interpretation of an ancient document excavated from a ruin, which was the last piece he needed for the ‘Age of Nihility’ he was pursuing.

“So, in this world… If everything returns to nihility, will humanity finally be free?”

Angolmoa, the Goddess of Destruction.

The records left by the lineage of the outer god destined to destroy this world.

The last descendant mentioned in those records must surely be in this empire.

---

And about a month after he returned from the Imperial Palace.

“I… It’s been two months.”

“Two months? What do you mean?”

When I returned home after completing my schedule as a hero, Airi greeted me as always.

But today, something was different about the atmosphere.

As a chilling feeling came over me, Airi, with a hand covered in cold sweat, placed it on her belly and spoke with difficulty.

“Ah, ah…”

“Baby, yo…”
