When she woke up in the morning, Ying saw the wound on Ivy's neck.

"Avi! You were bitten!" Ying was shocked again.

Ivy reached out and touched the wound, then nodded in agreement: "Yes...it seems like it was here last night."

"How do you feel? Are you anemic?" Ying pulled Ivy to look left and right again.

"No."

"Is it really because our blood doesn't taste good?"

"Maybe."

"Have you ever seen its true form?"

Ivy shook her head: "...No."

Ying regretted again: "Damn it, if I had known it would come, I should have slept outside, then it would have only bitten me and not Avi."

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." Ivy comforted her.

But Ying was still very upset, so she searched the room thoroughly, trying to find any traces left by the murderer.

"I don't know if it's an illusion, but I feel like there's some dark magic in the room, and there feels like there's dust on the ground..." Ying lay on the ground again and wiped it with her fingers.

"A-choo--" She couldn't help but sneeze, blowing the pollen away again.

"Your senses are quite sharp."

……

……

After school in the Potions Garden, Ivy came to the central courtyard.

Pukuria was tending to the flowers in the yard as always, and the dark plants were already blooming into crowded clusters and looked full of life.

The pot of lily of the valley looked as if it had been drained of all its energy, with its leaves listlessly drooping.

The girl was not there.

Pukulia no longer came over to hug her like he used to, and his calm tone seemed much more distant: "You are here."

"Isn't she here?" Ivy walked in slowly.

She had already used her magic to sense the surroundings, and found that there was no strange dark magic nearby.

Pukulia glanced back at her calmly: "Ke'er only wakes up at night."

Ivi walked up to Pukuria, holding an ecological box in his arms, which contained the poisonous insects that had been fostered in Pukuria before.

"Do me a favor." Ivy smiled faintly.

Just as she had tacitly kept Pukuria's secret, Pukuria had tacitly reciprocated.

With such a huge secret, it would be more than enough to rely on what happened to Mr. Krillin last time.

"You said."

"Use your...magic to mutate it."

Ivy would not talk nonsense in a place without any restrictions, but she knew that Pukuria could understand her.

Just like she used black magic to create the mutant plants, she could use black magic to transform these poisonous insects into what Ivy wanted.

Pukulia walked to the gate of the courtyard and closed it.

The moment she locked the gate, the gate's barrier was activated, and a powerful and tight dark barrier enveloped the entire courtyard, turning it into a perfect enclosed space.

The evening glow also became much dimmer at that moment.

"long time."

Pukulia just said this and sat on the chair, concentrating on operating the eco-box with his magic power.

It was not until much later that Ivy understood the significance of the word "a long time".

Using black magic to change the overall structure of a living thing is a very time-consuming process. From dusk to nightfall, Pukulia showed no signs of stopping.

The dormitory apartment's curfew had already passed, and she hoped that Ying wouldn't be too alarmed if she found out that she hadn't come back.

Ivy was lying on the round table, drowsy, when the dark plants on the table suddenly moved.

A ball of pollen emitting a dark glow flew out from the top of the pistil and landed lightly on the ground nearby. As the pollen ball bloomed, the figure of a girl appeared before their eyes.

Ke'er yawned and stretched comfortably.

"Good evening, Mom!" Ke'er happily hugged Pukulia and rubbed her face affectionately, "I'm so hungry, take me to suck blood quickly!"

Pukulia pulled a hand out and smoothed the girl's hair: "It's going to be later. They haven't fallen asleep yet."

"I can force them to sleep!"

"There's no rush."

Ke'er pouted. She stood by and watched for a while, then suddenly stretched out a thorny vine and smashed it towards the eco-box!

At the critical moment, Ivy reached out and grabbed the vine with force. The sharp thorn pierced her palm and bright red blood flowed out.

"Ah...!" Ivy burst into tears due to the pain.

"Ke'er, what are you doing?" Pukulia was also startled by the girl's actions. She pushed the eco-box away and looked at Ke'er with a reproachful look.

"It's all because of this broken box. Mom kept looking at it and didn't even look at me!" Ke'er argued aggrievedly, but she soon tasted blood.

It was only then that she seemed to notice Ivy’s presence, her dark eyes staring at Ivy and the wound on her hand without blinking.

Ke'er suddenly laughed: "You lied to me, your blood is obviously not poisonous."

As soon as he finished speaking, several dark vines quickly sprouted from the end of his hair, wrapping around Ivy and lifting her up.

“Really? That’s great.” Ivy’s tone was flat, and blood was still dripping from his injured palm.

But the girl did not suck Ivy's blood immediately. She seemed to know that she had just made her mother angry, so she was waiting. If Pukulia did not speak out to stop her, she would have had a full meal immediately.

However, Ivy would not wait patiently. She glanced at Pukulia and asked coldly, "Do you care?"

The hand that could move pulled out the short knife from the waist. Ivy bit off the disguised bow ribbon, and the sharp blade emitted a cold light in the dark night.

Perhaps because she had eaten all night, Ke'er's magic power had become slightly stronger than yesterday, but Ivi was still able to fight.

"Ke'er, it's not time to eat yet." Pukulia still had some conscience.

Ke'er reluctantly retracted the vines and stared at Ivy with resentment.

In the following time, Ke'er became much more obedient. She stuck to Pukulia's back without making any noise, and her slender vines even wrapped around Pukulia's little finger affectionately.

By the time Pukuria had finished mutating the poisonous insect, it was already completely dark at night.

The mutated poisonous insect turned blue-purple just as Ivy had expected, just like what he had seen in the hands of the gardener Robani...

Ivy thought this speed was already very fast. When he saw Pukuria's formation just now, he thought it would take several nights.

Ke'er cheered and jumped up and down in front of Pukulia, "Mom, can we go eat now?"

Pukulia picked up Ke'er and said, "Let's go eat."

She walked to the gate of the courtyard and lifted the restriction of the barrier.

Ivy said softly from behind: “You will be discovered sooner or later if you continue like this.”

Fixed hours, fixed victim groups, and increased patrols by college investigators.

The strange story of 'vampire' is known to everyone in the entire junior high school campus.

But Pukuria seemed to have not yet realized the seriousness of the situation.

"What did you find?" Pukulia turned around quietly and said calmly, "We just went to 'eat'."

She had a kind smile, but it looked a little pale.

Ivy felt a familiar feeling after a long time.

Although Pukulia hadn't been drunk for a long time, Ivi once again felt... the kind of drunken feeling that only comes with -

The feeling of self-deception.

She numbed her senses, distorted the facts, deceived herself...pretended that everything was normal.
