Chapter 1096 Gold Rush (2)
Chapter 1096 Gold Rush (2)
Very well then…"
The creepy whisper echoed in everyone's ears and soon…
Wooooooooooom!
A loud siren replaced the eerie silence as the minecart accelerated forwards, making everyone's hair flutter backwards like a flag in stormy winds. "Hooooooooooo!!" The group cheered as they felt the strong force backwards. The surroundings became streaks of light with how fast the minecart was moving and pumped everyone's adrenaline. The narrow tunnel switched to an extravagantly large gold mine. The people on the cart looked like ants in comparison to how big it was. The cart had not slowed down and despite that, everyone could clearly see a sea of people running around, trying to harvest the gold ores. The minecart moved from inside to the outside of the tunnel and the number of people had only increased. Each person carried huge backpacks, shovels, and pickaxes and were rushing in with aggressive looks on their faces. Screeched the minecart as it made a sudden dive and twisted upside-down, giving a feeling to everyone involved that they'll fall off in the dark abyss around them. Numerous miners could be seen falling down in slow motion around them, and the cart reached so close to a few that just a few inches in front of Lith, a scared face of a miner popped up. It was only there for a split second and vanished when everyone felt they were accelerating upwards. Darkness was replaced with bright light and…
"WOOOOOOHOOOOO—!"
"AHHHHHHHHH—!"
As clarity returned to Lith, he found himself in midair. The rail was gone and the minecart was accelerating like a magic train in thin air. The screams he just heard came from the people seated around a long rectangular pillar of metal. These people were being dropped down and raised up with intense speeds. The minecart coiled around them at great speeds. Those screaming people screamed even louder when they realized they were about to get hit by a random minecart that popped out of nowhere. The ones on the minecart screamed as well, wondering how the fuck they arrived here and why they weren't in the gold mines. Lith and Arya both felt thrilled. Their hearts began beating fast, but all of a sudden, Lith saw someone he never expected he would in this place. A red-haired seductive beauty wearing a wide brim hat and cat ears was nibbling a big lollipop while having her eyebrows raised. Her hair flowed against gravity as she dropped down in the ride, but her hat and cat ears were in place. None of her clothes had a wardrobe malfunction.
'Keith!?' Lith was amused to find this out. He couldn't see her for long as the minecart distanced itself from the ride and made its way inside a deep, dark tunnel again. A few more scenes of gold rush were shown to them until finally, they all felt an intense jerk that almost made their hearts leap out of their chests. CREAAAAKKKKKK!
The minecarts came to a halt. The surroundings changed and Lith was back to sitting on bucket seats and was buckled in place. The platform returned too and then the operator's voice was heard. "We hope you all had a pleasant time. Thank you for visiting Gold Rush, we hope you have a wonderful day ahead. For pictures, please visit booth number…"
It was the usual exit commentary while the staff members came to each seat to unbuckle everyone. Once Lith and Arya got off the ride, Arya stretched and said, "Woooo… that was amazing!"
"You liked it too?" Lith asked with a smile. Arya locked her arms with Lith and replied, "Yes. It was thrilling. Plus, you made a lot of new faces which was quite pleasing to look at."
"…" Lith wondered how he should reply to that. Arya didn't give him a chance anyway and said, "Let's get the photos from the booth!"
A being that ruled the entire underworld, a being that held immense treasures and mysteries, and a being that many dragons worshiped, was casually strolling around like an ordinary lady in love as if it was the most natural thing for her to do. The Prince of all Vampires in the world roamed along with her like a helpless husband and got dragged to multiple places to have fun with his wife. The lovebirds made their way to one attraction after another, going from adrenaline pumping roller coasters to soft, mellow unicorn rides made for kids. Both enjoyed their time together, had tons of amazing rides and food, and eventually, the day came to an end without even them realizing. The night parade had begun with fireworks filling the skies. Lith and Arya were sitting in a giant Ferris wheel and watching the parade and fireworks from the top. Arya was on Lith's lap, getting her abdomen hugged by him. Her glasses were gone and her bluish-silver eyelashes and clear blue eyes shone brightly under the silver moonlight. Arya's eyes were so amazing that the reflection of the fireworks was clearly visible in them. As of this moment, there was no one more beautiful than his wife in the world for him. Lith's eyes were fully focused on Arya and she seemed so majestic that he couldn't help but gently bite her cheek and pull them. "Mhm…" Arya smiled at his gimmicks and instead of saying something, took out her phone and took a selfie. The power couple looked like a cute, playful couple in this picture. Lith let her go once he felt satisfied and glued his face to hers, swaying side to side. "Today was amazing." Lith said. "Yes. And we have a few more days to go. I wonder how it'll be." Arya said with a smile. This was one of the four parks. Three were still left to be explored. Actually, this park in itself was so big that they would need a couple of days to explore it fully. However, both did not have much time with them and had to call it a day for this park. They had explored the main attractions anyway. "I don't know about the park, but I am feeling more inclined to explore you instead." Lith said something naughty, setting the mood. Arya laughed softly and replied, "I totally forgot about it. The rides were enjoyable and I didn't feel bored enough to take you somewhere secluded. I guess, there are days like these too sometimes."
Lith chuckled. "Indeed. We have the whole night free now. We can either explore more of this park or relax in a hotel."
"Hotel please. I want to relax." Arya said while leaning back on Lith's shoulder. "I wonder if there's a Nine Roses Hotel here."
"You don't know your own hotels?" Lith asked, amused. "There's too many to keep count of." Arya yawned. "Let me check if there's one here."
Arya took out her phone and typed in a few things on it. "Oh. There is indeed one. Let's go there after this ride."
"Sure." Lith said and placed his chin on Arya's forehead. The two didn't speak further and enjoyed the ride that gave a complete view of the park. …..
Bells chimed and a jazzy jingle made one's feet irresistible to move. A red-haired lady with slanted eyes wearing a pair of cat ears headband danced slowly while holding a corn dog in one hand and a twisted pretzel in the other. "Woo! Even the music here is amazing, President!" Beside her, Keith, with her amazing curves that could barely be hidden under her modest top and skirt were swaying as she copied Hei and danced slowly. Her hat was gone and what was left was a pair of red cat ears. They looked like they were an extension of her own head and were moving along with her movements. Keith did not look like a beauty while holding fizzy pink peach iced tea in one hand and a couple of meat skewers in the other. However, this had its own charm and made many heads turn to look at her. Keith was slow dancing to an intense beat because she did not want to embarrass herself by dancing hard like Hei. She was not of the right age or in the right moment to do so. Keith obviously knew how to dance and she knew a variety of them from ball dancing to freestyle to contemporary and even a variety of folk dances. In her human past, she was sold to a variety of people and trained to dance, please the master, and do a lot of menial and odd jobs by the slave masters. She knew how to make the best tea, how to take care of her master, and excelled as a maid. Even though she was a fearsome devil, the past couldn't be changed. Being a maid was traumatic in the past, but in the current life, she was having some other thoughts. There was not a single dull day since she became Lith's maid. It was amusing and surprised her. Yes, she may be overworked, but this type of work was not a problem. And the biggest surprise of all that she got was today. Who would've thought that there would be something that could make her adrenaline shoot up and thrill her. She genuinely enjoyed today and after a point of time, came to a conclusion that following Hei's lead was not that bad. It was for this reason that she was here, in the middle of the park's square, dancing by the parade that was going on. Keith took a bite of the meat from the skewers and thought to herself, 'I should bring my daughter here. She would love this place…'
