Quickly wear the heartthrob: She is always coveted by others
Chapter 783 Just take one puff (1)
The basement of the castle is, to some extent, a forbidden area, and no one is allowed to enter without Is's permission.
Almost all vampires are aware of the Count's taboos, but there are always exceptions. At least for Leno, this is not a big restriction.
After asking the butler Charlie, Leno went to the basement.
The wall lamps embedded in the stone walls flickered, and the candlelight swayed in the wind, forming distorted black shadows in the narrow passage.
Deep in the basement, on the high stairs, a black-haired man stood next to a huge black wooden coffin. His facial features were three-dimensional and deep, like a noble in an oil painting. His charming blood-red eyes dimmed a little when he looked down at the black wooden coffin.
Soon, soon.
See you soon.
Leno folded his arms and was not at all surprised to see where the Earl was standing.
"Is, you haven't given up yet?"
In fact, his name was offensive.
But Is was not angry. The young descendant of the Anderson family who had just risen to prominence in front of him was so reckless and arrogant that he was known to everyone in the vampire clan.
It’s not that no one wanted to teach him a lesson, but the other party had a powerful background and was extremely strong, so they could not move or beat him. They could only hold their noses and say hum--Xiao Yis.
Is himself found it funny when he happened to think of his title, so he chose to forgive the young descendant's slight verbal disrespect.
"Don't mind my business." Is said, and then he returned to the stands from the stairs. Like an ordinary friend, he changed the topic and asked him, "Have you completed your mission today?"
"Of course, it's just a matter of eliminating a few low-level vampires."
Leno didn't dwell on the matter of the black wooden coffin. He sighed and continued, "It's just that I encountered an annoying rat tonight."
He claimed it was annoying, but his expression didn't change much, which showed that the so-called "rat" had no effect on him.
After thinking about it for a while, Yis came up with a guess.
"You mean, the church has sent someone?"
Leno did not deny it, and answered in his usual casual tone, "Who else could it be except them? Seeing a vampire is like seeing the enemy who murdered your father. That look... is really infuriating."
He made no secret of his dislike for vampire hunters.
This is normal. Vampires and vampire hunters are like cat and mouse. They are inherently hostile to each other and have found it difficult to reach a reconciliation for thousands of years. They are eager to get rid of each other.
Only war can temporarily ease the arrogance of both sides.
But it can only maintain the illusion of peace for a short period of time.
As a vampire Count, Is is a neutral party regarding the thousands of years of discord between blood clans and vampire hunters.
There is no doubt that there will be winners and losers in the war between the two sides. Most of the time, the vampires with strong innate advantages will have a huge advantage. Vampire hunters, under the banner of exterminating vampires, cannot change the fact that humans are inherently weak.
However, human beings are like the indestructible cockroaches, and a temporary victory over vampires does not mean permanent suppression.
Nowadays, the decline in the strength of the blood clan is the best evidence.
On this basis, Islam advocated reconciliation with humans. After all, it would be easier to live in peace than to kill one thousand enemies and hurt eight hundred of one's own.
Unfortunately, Is's opinion only represents a part of the blood clan. Most of the blood clan's attitude towards humans is prey, and vampire hunters are prey that will bite people. Vampires who think of themselves as noble will never swallow this humiliation even if they die by being stepped on by lowly prey.
Leno also belongs to the latter.
Is couldn't change his mind. He turned the ring on his thumb and warned him calmly, "We are still in the truce period. Don't go too far."
As the pressure from the pure-blooded vampires descended, all the low-level vampires underground fell silent, and the basement became quiet for a moment.
The corners of Leno's lips curled up, with no fear on his face. He was not easily scared. He slowly walked past the black-haired man who was putting pressure on him.
In the air, only a few words were left.
"My Lord Earl, please stay out of my business."
----
It was early morning and the sky was dim.
The guard team was ready to go, and at the order of Sheriff Angus, they set out towards Blackwood Forest again.
Among the residents of the small town, whether they are getting up early to go to work or going out to buy groceries, this is nothing strange.
Anyway, Freya has not been found for a few days. It is said that her parents are so desperate that they are about to give up looking for her.
However, this time the search seemed different from the previous ones.
In the market, someone met Mrs. Miller and pulled her aside to ask, "Mrs. Miller, I just saw your son leave with the guards. What's going on?"
Mrs. Miller was worried about her son, so she had no time to gossip with others. But she was not a gossiper, so she just dismissed all the gossipers.
Among the people accompanying him, besides Dennis, there was also Anya.
Some people also went to ask Anya's mother, but Mrs. David was not someone to be trifled with. Her expressionless response of "It's none of your business" left the person speechless.
Unable to get an answer from the two parents, the residents dispersed in boredom.
This special news also reached the church and reached Lance's ears. He was eating breakfast at the dining table. It was prepared for him by the church servants, and even Aldo's dog food was included.
Here, Lance doesn't have to worry about vampires, nor does he have to feel guilty about implicating Dennis. His heart is at peace.
All this is thanks to Lovell.
Yesterday at noon, Lance brought his luggage and dog to the church, hoping to stay for a while. The kind young man offered help without hesitation, which touched him a little.
The only thing was that when Lance mentioned that Yu Huan was a vampire, the young man's expression suddenly changed, and the smile on his gentle face disappeared.
At that moment, Lance couldn't describe the look in his eyes.
I just felt cold all over and couldn't utter a word.
The young man's state at that time was exactly the same as when he was in the kitchen of the garden. He seemed to be possessed by a demon, and his eyes were filled with bloody hatred and pain.
That night, after Lovell left, Lance learned from the church elders everything he had endured in his childhood.
Lance has no parents, and when he heard about Lovell's experience, he felt sympathy but could not empathize with her.
For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was more tragic to have never felt pity or to have gained and lost again.
