the culprit

Via looked worriedly at Felix's face.

On their way to find Cyril, they met Liszt who came in a hurry. The group were surprised by his sudden appearance, but he didn't explain much about his whereabouts, only saying that he knew where Cyril was.Wei Ya and her husband were skeptical about this, but Felix didn't say anything, and only asked Liszt to take him to find Cyril.

Liszt was still standing next to the wolf cub who fought against Felix back then. He stared at the vampire with gloomy eyes, as if he would pounce to fight him at any moment.

"There are spies among the revolutionaries, and they have reported to the king. The royal family urgently needs the whereabouts of our group and the next plan." Liszt turned his head and glanced at the wolf cub beside him, soothing his eyes, "You have heard of Stealing Dreams. who?"

As soon as the word "Dream Stealer" was uttered, several people present were startled and couldn't help looking at each other.

"It's urgent, let's talk about it on the way." Liszt glanced at Felix and the two people behind him, then at the wolf cub and the girl beside him, thought for a moment, then bent down and said something to the girl , the girl nodded, jumped up and down in front of Wei Ya, and hugged her involuntarily.

"Sister, hold me tight." The ten-year-old girl spoke in the tone of a five- or six-year-old child, "Let's follow brother."

Seeing this, Wei Ya's husband was about to draw his gun, but was unexpectedly picked up by Felix.

"We're on our way."

Liszt asked Felix if he remembered that night at the river beach, and the young wolf said that those who came to hunt him had the same smell as Cyril.

"I didn't know until I arrived in the Kingdom of Illian that those people were dream stealers. Cyril has their blood in him, so Leo said those words."

Hearing what Liszt said, Felix suddenly remembered what Cyril told him one night, the undead demon smelled his body and said it didn't look like a vampire.

Both monsters and humans with special abilities have a special smell, and this special imprint is not only branded in the bones and blood, but also reflected in the soul.

"At first, I always thought that the person who hired someone to kidnap me was someone from the royal family or the army, but I didn't expect it to be the Dream Thief. In fact, my blood is also from the Dream Thief, but it is not the same as those people. They probably kidnapped me for My own plan increases the chances of winning, but the dream stealers of my team actually don’t have the ability to actively connect dreams with other people’s lives. We can only passively spy on those who intend to use dreams to spy on us——I saw Cyril."

He crawled into Cyril's dream, and went through the torment that the young man had endured.

Liszt didn't tell Felix about the dream in detail, but he had an intuition that the vampire had guessed something.They rushed to this manor located in the remote countryside, Felix put down the man in his arms, and rushed in without saying a word, ignoring the cloak slipping down his long blond hair.

Seeing Felix holding the bloody Cyril with a serious expression on his face, Liszt sighed and took the pup with him, saying that he was going to search for the fish that slipped through the net.

Wei Ya urged Felix to quickly put Cyril back on the bed. She tore off Cyril's clothes, checked his breath and listened to his heartbeat. blood jar.

"Leave me alone." Felix stared at Cyril who always woke up for a while and then fell into a coma again, as if he didn't feel the pain of the wound at all.When he rushed in, most of his face was covered by the sun. He didn't know what was going on now, and he didn't have the time to think about it. He only hoped that Wei Ya could stop Cyril from vomiting blood.

"He's too weak..." Wei Ya listened to her heartbeat for a while, her eyes turned red involuntarily.She murmured and called her husband's name, eagerly and rudely took out various unnamed medicines from his pocket, looked anxiously at the labels on the bottles, unscrewed them one by one and fed them into Cyril's mouth , "Is there water? Where is the water! Water and fire!"

When the men heard this, they immediately turned around and ran out of the room to look for what Wei Ya wanted.

"Hey, Cyril, we're here, we found you, you must hold on." She kept thinking, and actually choked up twice while talking.She froze suddenly, raised her hand and patted her face, then picked up Cyril again, and carefully fed some panacea into his mouth.

The recipe for the panacea was left to her by her father, who said it would cure all diseases.She'd known from the start that this was bullshit, but she'd given it to a patient every time she had an ailment she couldn't help.

The men quickly found water and a stove, and lit a fire. Wei Ya dug out a small bag of dried herbs from her pocket and poured them into the water to boil, and gave Cyril a small bottle of liver extract.

Cyril suddenly coughed and groaned in pain.Felix grabbed Via's wrist and asked her sharply what she was feeding Cyril. The human executor stood behind the vampire and took out a gun and pointed it at the back of the monster's head.

"Liver extract, the taste is disgusting," Wei Ya gasped, "but it's very effective, whether it's for you monsters or us humans. I tried it, and the effect is very good. Cyril was injured too badly, I... I can only try all kinds of methods."

After drinking the medicine, Cyril finally stopped vomiting blood like before, and his mind became slightly clearer.He lay on the bed with his eyes open, barely blinking, and unable to speak.Wei Ya sniffed, and squatted in front of the stove to stare at the potion boiling in the pot. Her husband was standing beside him, and he also squatted down slowly, raising his arms and hugging her into his arms.

And Felix stood by the bed.

He bent down, looked directly into Cyril's eyes, and called his name softly.

Cyril looked at him with calm eyes, smiling at him when he blinked.But that smile never lasted.Cyril was still lingering from the pain in his body, his brows could never be opened, and his body could not get rid of the trembling, and he was so weak that he couldn't even hold his fingers together.

After a while, he fell asleep again.His brows were still furrowed.His sleeping position was twisted, as if he had to do it to avoid pain.There were moments when Felix thought about making him his own kind.

Not for eternity, just to free Cyril from the pain of the moment.

But he was weak.

Felix wasn't sure if he could survive the near-death pain of first embrace.

It took two hours for Liszt to return with the two pups.It took him a while to find the room where Cyril was.At that time, Cyril was still lying on the bed, not vomiting blood, and sleeping there peacefully, with a pale face.Wei Ya sat on the ground by the stove with a dull expression, her eyes were red, obviously she had just cried.His husband was sitting beside her, with one arm around her shoulders, his head bowed and he didn't speak.And Felix—

Liszt found a little blood on Felix's back.He stepped forward to remind him that not only Felix, but also Wei Ya, who was sitting on the ground, quickly got up and went around behind Felix until she saw the blood on his shirt. Mouth, tears welled up in the eyes, after a while it finally quieted down again—like giving up.

The old master will die, waiting for the new master to inherit the contract.

Felix seemed to ignore it.

"I don't need a new master," he said.Walking to the bed, he hugged Cyril.

Contracts don't lie.

If Cyril was really about to die, he would not be so worried.

It's not a full moon tonight, but no matter how bad the conditions are, he can't wait any longer.

If Cyril is lucky enough to be alive, if Cyril also becomes a vampire, if Cyril ends up like Ayton, becomes as resentful as Ayton, and even chooses to jump into the sun like Ayton to end Himself - just let the second poisonous thorn grow into his heart, he accepts that kind of resentment, accepts that kind of ending, as long as he doesn't let Cyril die at this moment.

A human life is short, at least let Cyril complete his decades of being human.

"Felix, where are you taking Cyril?"

Wei Ya turned pale and shouted, but Felix remained silent.

He has come to the door.

The little girl next to the wolf cub tilted her head to look at Felix, raised her hand to grab her brother's hand, and asked in her tender voice, "Why are you crying?"

Felix glanced at the girl.

Because it hurts.

He was never one to take pain.

That's why we try our best to avoid all pain.

He is very selfish.

Felix hugged Cyril and walked down the spiral staircase, with Wei Ya's non-stop shouting behind him.The female doctor seemed to have guessed what he was going to do, and she was out of breath after picking up the corner of her skirt.

Felix couldn't help being confused, what are humans afraid of?

This is nothing to do with her.

"Felix, wait...you stop!" Wei Ya shouted all the way and ran all the way, she tried her best to keep up and grabbed Felix's arm, "You...you want...you want Turn Cyril into a vampire like you?"

In the darkness, Felix's eyes were gloomy, completely different from his usual indifference.He didn't answer Wei Ya's question, but his expression already revealed everything.Wei Ya pulled him to prevent him from leaving, and eagerly said a lot of admonishing words, her lips parted quickly, and they separated as soon as they touched each other.

Humans don't want to be monsters, they know what that means.

But there are two people who actively want to become his kind.

He said yes to one and rejected the other.

And now, he still wants to turn what he rejected into the same kind.

"Don't delay, Wei Ya. I won't let him die."

"Then you're going to turn him into a monster!"

Wei Ya roared angrily.

"But you can't save him. I can." Felix waved Via's hand away, and walked into the moonlight with Cyril in his arms.

The young man in his arms was breathing weakly, and it was already difficult to wake up.Even in First Embrace, he might die suddenly while being sucked blood.

"Wait, Felix."

Another voice came after itself, and Felix was getting bored.

"Can the Philosopher's Stone, coveted by alchemists, save Cyril?"

Hearing the "Philosopher's Stone", Felix turned around sharply.

The noble general stood under the moonlight with a handsome face and sharp eyes.
