kiss the night

The heavy door was knocked, and the crows that landed on the eaves of the castle flapped their wings and flew away. The courtyard was shrouded in silence, and one couldn't help but suspect that this was actually an empty castle.

Fortunately, both Yan Zhao and Laurentine could feel the breath of vampires, albeit faintly.

Before their patience was exhausted, someone finally came to answer the door. It was a brown-skinned maid wearing a black robe. Although she was not a nun, the indifference on her face could make Yan Zhao It is easy to think of the solemn appearance of everyone in the church.

She raised her head and looked at the two vampires in front of her with brown and black eyes. After a while, she turned sideways to signal them to enter the castle. She didn't speak during the period, which made her behavior seem impolite.

For Yan Zhao, this is not a big problem. He grew up in the new era, and he is not interested in the many rules of noble vampires in the past.

Obviously, Laurentine didn't think so, his beautiful eyebrows were unabashedly frowned in the middle, and the prince expressed his dissatisfaction in his usual "elegant" way: "If I hadn't met Austin before, I would have thought this You're trying to show us off. Ma'am, you're as quiet as this castle."

Yan Zhao is used to Laurentine's occasional eccentricity. This prince is not a good-tempered character. He always carries things left over from the old aristocratic era, which sometimes makes him appear too aggressive.

"I didn't intend to offend you, this castle has not had any guests for many years." The maid lowered her head, which made her low voice even more difficult to discern, "There is one more thing I need to tell you, Your Highness Austin He is sleeping and we don't know when he will wake up."

"Sleeping?" Yan Zhao couldn't help asking, "That doesn't happen when a vampire's energy is exhausted. Was he injured?"

"No." The maid shook her head, "This is His Highness's own wish."

"Weird." Noah whispered.

It was only at this time that the maid noticed the child behind them. In the initial communication with Laurentine, no one mentioned this child.

"This is our new student." Laurentine's tone was still blunt, his patience was limited, and Austin Lodgery's various performances seemed impolite.

Very, very rude.

"He's going to need some fresh blood and I think good hospitality should get you some food."

"Of course." The maid didn't get angry because of Laurentine's tone. She was like a cold robot, carrying out the orders given by her master. In the silent atmosphere of Lodgery Castle, she showed a somewhat shocking look. uncomfortable feeling.

During their conversation, the maid had led Laurentine and Yanzhao to the guest room. It looked like a clean and spacious room, but it was too simple. Except for a large bed in the middle and the necessary wardrobe, there was almost nothing. There is no other furniture, even the wooden bookshelf next to it is empty, and there is no book on it.

"Do you need to arrange a separate room for the child?" the maid asked.

"No." "Yes." The voices of Laurenting and Yanzhao sounded at the same time.

Yan Zhao took Noah's hand and spoke Chinese with his back to the maid: "This is a new place, Laurentine, Noah is still a child, he can't sleep outside alone."

After listening seriously, Laurentine turned to the maid and said, "He agreed, and arrange a separate room for Noah, preferably next door to us."

"You..." Yan Zhao's words were stuck in his throat.

"It's no longer young, my dear. When I was his age, I could go hunting alone on a fierce horse."

"You sound like an annoying elder."

Even though Noah couldn't understand Chinese, he still felt that those two people had a quarrel over his residence. No matter what the reason was, this was something he didn't want to see very much.

"I can rest alone." He took a step forward and protected Yan Zhao behind him, "Sir, don't make it difficult for me." He looked at Laurentine with vigilant eyes, as if he was worried that this eccentric vampire would hurt him Save his "pretty brother".

Of course Laurentine was happy that Noah offered to live alone, but at the same time, he was not very satisfied with the current "two-on-one" scene.

Fortunately, the maid interrupted the conversation in time, and she took Noah to the next room. However, from the voices in the corridor, it seemed that the room hadn't been cleaned up yet, and some decorations needed to be made now.

Yan Zhao and Laurentine settled down and began to review the entire situation of Lodje Castle.

"Did you hear that, even if it's tidying up the room, it seems that the maid just now is the only one."

"Yes, there are not many humans or vampires here." Laurentine agreed with him, "And when I met Austin before, he didn't look like a person who would do such a thing at all. But time does change a lot of things."

"What happened?" Yan Zhao wasn't such a gossip person, but it was related to the ruby ​​he was looking for, and Duo Yunxue, his uncle by blood.

"There seems to have been a war between East and West in Lapleve a long time ago, I mean, back in the day, when religion still played a major role in the political arena," said Laurentine, his brow always Wrinkled, "At that time, there was a large-scale religious war, which was provoked by the Luo Zheyi family. Of course, this matter was not made public, and only the vampires knew about it."

"It sounds ridiculous that vampires start a religious war."

Laurentine shrugged his shoulders: "Maybe it's just a gimmick. Who knows what interests are being fought for? Desire is an endless thing... To be honest, I don't know the situation here. At that time I I have just taken over my own territory, and there are many things to do, but I have heard that the war was a revenge."

"revenge?"

"Yes, the vampire's revenge on the human church. Austin is a very smart character. He split the East and West Raplever church into two parts, and then let them kill each other. This kind of civil war will continue for a long time. For Rapp Liver is a huge loss."

"But why did he do this? I mean, isn't this his own territory?" Yan Zhao was shocked by the stories he heard. After all, in his impression, the most important career of a lord is to manage his own territory well. Land, like what Laurentine is doing now, he has done a lot for the benefit of his country.

"I don't know, it's just that there are rumors that it has something to do with your uncle."
