struggle

Looking at Lorian's lonely eyes, Ginny nodded: "Yes, Mr. Simmore, I would like to hear your story."

Lorian raised the corners of his lips, and took Ginny's hand. Suddenly, the cold wind hit his face, and Ginny closed her eyes.When she felt her feet fall back to the ground, she opened her eyes and saw that she was already in the beautiful scenery during the day.

"This is Lorena's favorite place when she was alive." Lorian explained, "And after I became the prince of the Simmore clan, I made this place my territory and cast a spell to keep its scenery and make it forever Stay in Lorena's favorite season."

"In life?" Ginny grasped the word sensitively.

"Yes, during her lifetime." Lorian nodded, "She was already dead, in a witch hunt hundreds of years ago."

"She's a wizard too?" Ginny is no stranger to the witch hunt, which was a large-scale hunt for wizards in medieval Europe.She had consciously made up a possible love story between a vampire and a wizard in her mind, so she asked cautiously, "Then she is your lover?"

"No." Lorian guessed what she was thinking, and shook his head with a smile, "Lorena, my full name is Lorena Popescu, and my name before joining the blood clan, It was Lorian Popescu. That was not a romantic love story, but a bloody and tragic past, Lorena, saved my sister, my biological sister, with her own life."

Lorian sat down on the grass and put his hand into the icy lake: "Hundreds of years ago, our Popescu family was just an ordinary wizard family in Romania, with only two children, Lorena and me. At that time, when the Holy See was frantically hunting down wizards, we lived hard and cautiously, trying our best to hide our differences. However, by chance, our family was still found to be different from ordinary people At that place, he was surrounded by people from the Holy See in his own home."

Lorian covered his face with trembling right hand.Feeling the pain of being immersed in his memories, Ginny put her hand on his other hand without words. Although they are both wizards, their living environment now is better than that of them hundreds of years ago Too much.

Lorian put down his hands and forced a smile to Ginny: "That night, our family kept resisting and tried to rush out, but was banned by the Holy See. We couldn't even use apparation. In their siege, they kept exhausting every ounce of magic power. It was the first time I killed someone, the first time I saw blood flow across my hands, the first time I saw human life disappearing in my hands, and I realized that, It turned out that my parents still protected me so well that I would feel disgusted by the blood and feel sorry for those who came to kill us. However, those people in the Holy See will not be soft, and our resistance has aroused them even more The big rage, it's going all out on us. When both parents are down, they laugh and surround me and Lorena like a cat teasing two mice that have nowhere to go. Finally, Lorena Lena, she rushed forward and detonated her magic power, and died with them, and her last words were, "Brother, run away..." My sister exchanged her life for my chance of survival. "

Lorian's words stopped, and his frail appearance was no longer the image of a majestic superior during the day today, as if in his memory, he became the helpless young man at that time again.Ginny couldn't help asking: "Then what happened later? How did you join the blood clan?"

"Because I need strength, I want revenge." Lorian's voice suddenly turned cold, "As a wizard, I am still a human being with limited physical strength and ability, so I cannot face the Holy See alone. So, I tried my best After a lot of hard work, I found the Simmore family and asked to join. After hearing my story, they happily accepted my request, because the blood family is also one of the targets of the Holy See, we have a common enemy, and Simmore Most of the members of the family were transformed from wizards. So after the First Embrace ceremony, I have since become Lorian Simmore."

"So did you take revenge?" Ginny asked softly.

Lorian nodded, but suddenly shook his head in confusion: "I can say I got revenge, because I destroyed the local Holy See and killed all the people. At that time, I felt so happy and relieved the hatred. But, later I found that my parents and Lorena can never come back, and the simple happiness before can never come back." Lorian's voice gradually lowered, and in these long hundreds of years, he was alone From the lowest newborn to the current prince, he is used to killing and power, but he still can't get used to the feeling of loneliness engraved in his bone marrow, so he is still subconsciously looking for the feeling he once had. .

Looking back at the red-haired girl who was quietly listening to his story, Lorian slowly raised his hand and stroked Ginny's hair: "That's why I was so surprised to see you during the day, and that's why I saw you in this daytime." At night, I couldn't help looking for you. Miss Weasley, when I saw you, I seemed to see Lorena. The same red hair, the same sweet smell, very much like the Lorena in my memory."

Ginny smiled faintly, knowing he was just empathizing.Hundreds of years, and the transformation from human to vampire, had already blurred his memory, and perhaps it was only because of her similar red hair that he felt that she was similar to Lorena.But she didn't intend to let him down by saying that all this, after all these hundreds of years of loneliness, with memories of the past and vague guilt towards his sister, he just needed a place to pour out.

In the quiet atmosphere, Ginny suddenly remembered the legend of Count Dracula, who fell into a vampire because of love, and betrayed God because of despair. The fact that the Holy See was an enemy erased the reason for his incarnation as a demon.In the dust of history, too much real human nature and helpless struggle are covered up, leaving only the cold history books, the history written by the winners, and the history reversed by the results. Therefore, the rules of winners and losers are destined to be hidden. Going to many dark places, wantonly exaggerating the evil of the opponent in the history books, and showing the justice of one's own side.Just like the witch hunts and witch hunts in the Middle Ages, under the radiance of the holy Holy See, they concealed their fear of the power of wizards and the essence of sex.The identities of wizards have been smeared and equated with evil. Therefore, until today, these wizards still work hard to conceal their true identities, guarding an increasingly narrow space, and maintaining more and more people. The more difficult the inheritance.

The two of them didn't speak for a while, they just sat silently by the lake.After sitting in the cold wind for a long time, Ginny couldn't help shivering. After all, it was winter, and the temperature here was lower than outside.Seeing this, Lorian said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Miss Weasley, I forgot that you are human after all and cannot withstand the low temperature here. I'll send you back first."

Ginny nodded, was held by his hand, and teleported to Charlie's residence just like when she came.Before leaving, Lorian was a little bit reluctant: "Miss Weasley, can I see you again?"

"Of course." Ginny nodded and responded with a smile, "You can treat me as your sister."

Under Lorian's delighted eyes, Ginny turned and went back to her room.Apart from her sympathy for what happened to Lorian, she admitted that she still had her own considerations, so she agreed to his request so simply.Since the Simmor family was transformed by wizards, maybe their magic would suit her, and she needed this.

In the following days, Lorian often came in the middle of the night, took Ginny in his territory, and listened to him talk about the experiences of these hundreds of years.She also asked him about magic, but Lorian regretfully told her that the magic of their family combined the characteristics of the blood clan, it was out of the category of wizards, and it was not suitable for her.But he still transferred to Ginny the magic power that he once belonged to the wizard, but this required her to use her own magic power to slowly transform it into his own, and still needed her own exploration.And Ginny's initial intention to use her intentions turned into a true friendship with him in the end in his sincere relative.She understood his regret for Lorena and his empathy for her, but she could only persuade him a little bit to let him get out of the prison of his own heart.

When the Christmas holiday is coming to an end, Ginny is about to return to England with her parents.After hearing the news, Lorian covered up the faint disappointment in her eyes, and hung a pendant in the shape of the Simmore clan emblem on her neck: "This is a portkey. When you say the password, it will I will take you back to my side, and I hope you can come back to see me often. Moreover, I added the magic of spiritual defense that our blood race is best at, which can help you resist part of the magic of spiritual attacks."

"Thank you!" Ginny hugged him, then took a step back and looked straight into his eyes, "Lorian, there are some things I wanted to say to you a long time ago, but I never had the right opportunity. Before I leave, I still want to tell you how I feel. From your description, I think I can understand Lorena's love for you, and when she died with the enemy, I think what she actually hopes is that you can not only Live, and live happily. Hundreds of years are enough, and you have avenged her. You who are immersed in pain will never be what she wants to see. Don't let her sacrifice not worth it."

Lorian's body trembled, and heat gushed out of his eyes.He slowly caressed his face, and his fingertips even touched the slightly hot liquid: "Oh, it's been hundreds of years, so I still have tears." During these days of getting along, he has already felt Ginny's unspoken comfort, such meticulous care, such a girl who has similar feelings to Lorena, gradually healed his wounds, and made him try his best to protect Ginny's happiness, so that he could make up for it. Chances of regretting yourself.

When he raised his head again, Lorian's eyes finally no longer had the feeling of loneliness and emptiness in his eyes: "Ginny, maybe, I prefer to believe that Lorena is using your mouth to tell me that she has no regrets. Jin Ni, I will protect you and let you go through everything that Lorena has never had the opportunity to experience. Even if you return to the UK, please remember that there is still a brother in Romania who will always support you free of charge. If there is any difficulty , please let me share with you."

The author has something to say: Well, I gave Ginny a little bit of golden finger, Lorian passed her magic power to her, but it hasn't fully integrated yet.

In addition, the pendant given to her that can resist some mental attacks can basically resist the detection of Legilimency, which is a problem that some relatives are worried about, haha
