The first year of the fifth era of the elven calendar, the first year of the silver moon in December. That is, four months after the "Battle of Salted Fish Harbor".

At midnight, in the southeast corner of the Colin Peninsula in the eastern part of the Celtesian continent, two small bats flew against the wind with difficulty. One of them wore a small bow tie, and the other dragged an oversized bag.

"Mistress Jones, Mistress Jones, you wait for Dora, wait for Dora!"

"I told you not to bring too many things!"

"No, these things are a must!" Aunt Sarah said she wanted a set of human perfumes. ”

"I went to conquer the world, and she secretly asked you to bring gifts?".

"And Cousin Ripika, Cousin Baker, Uncle Douglas, Grandma Devonie, Cousin Susan, ......"

"Oh my God, am I going on a trip? You're buying so many things behind my back?"

"Dora secretly worked and worked for a long time to buy all the ......," Dora said aggrievedly.

Jones was furious: "So when I conquered the world, you worked in the restaurant serving dishes?"

"No, I usually prefer to deliver couriers, and serving dishes only occasionally. The old man also sent a letter, he wanted to see us in armor, so we had to bring our armor too. ”

"Wait, you're not going to tell him we're drinking pig's blood instead, are you?"

Jones' eyes widened suddenly.

Dora was so frightened that she fell down, flapping her wings, and finally flew back with the package, and quickly shook her head: "No!

"That's fine. Jones breathed a sigh of relief.

Dora said cautiously, "But Dora told him that we had to pray before drinking blood......

Jones was stunned.

Dora thought for a moment and added in a whisper, "And I also talked about going to church every week......

"You...... How can I have such stupid subordinates as you!

With a roar, Jones immediately turned around and flew back. Dora hurriedly grabbed him with one foot: "Master Jones, don't be angry!"

"I'm not going back! What are you going back for? Humiliated!"

"The master is still waiting for us at home!"

"You have to go back, you go back yourself! I won't go back anyway!"

"Don't do that, Lord Jones! Dora is wrong!"

"Stupid! Stop! It's going to fall! Ah——!h

Entangled with each other, the two bats flapped their wings and fell into the woods along with the huge baggage, startling a flock of birds.

......

The Kolin Peninsula, a magical place in the eastern part of the continent.

How amazing is it?

The weather here is completely out of the ordinary. It's snowing elsewhere in the middle of winter, and the sun may be shining here. Elsewhere in the summer heat is deadly, and there can be blizzards here. It's good if it's just upside down, after all, it's at least regular, and the bad thing is that sometimes it's normal again. And all year round, typhoons and hail can blow at any time......

In human parlance, it is: "a ghost place." "No one wants to live here.

Later, after a long time, this place really became a "ghost" place.

There is no species that can survive here, whether animals or plants, that is not strong. Because of the sparse population, many species that have become extinct in other parts of the continent still exist here. For example, Warcraft, such as Goblins, for example, new species created by various demonic experiments left over from the Age of Gods and Demons, and, of course, vampires.

Yes, there are more vampires living here, and there is more than one nest. There are many litters. The Jones family is one of them.

After some struggle, hesitation, twisting, and tangling, Jones and Dora finally arrived at the door of their house.

The Dracula's castle, built on a cliff, is shrouded in dark clouds all year round, and the sun does not shine. Lightning and thunder at every turn. It is surrounded by withered woods and cemeteries. Don't ask me if vampires can't die, and there's no one here, where is the cemetery?

In short, it's a pretty standard vampire castle.

As for its gates, it is a kilometer away from the castle. Standing outside the fence, you can see the grandeur of the castle from afar. After passing through the gates, you will need to walk through the cemetery and the wooded paths with potholes and perennial water to reach the castle.

Why set the gate so far away?

Because the concept of vampire territory is extremely strong.

This is just an explanation. Another explanation is that Jones's biological father, Count Heyman Dedracula, built a long fence and a distant gate in order to rival the size of the castle with other vampires. Anything that is fenced in is counted as a castle, although there is nothing in it. But that doesn't stop them from comparing, does it?

As if to set Jones's mood in the mood, a bolt of lightning lit up in the sky and illuminated Jones's face.

With a roar, Jones stood in front of the rusty gate, looking at the castle where he had been raised, at the closed gate, and at the mummy guards standing beside him.

The mummy guard also looked at him.

"Aren't you going to open the door for me?"

"Do you need me to open the door for you?" young master. ”

"What do you think? Also, don't call me young master! Sound like a child, call me Lord Jones!"

"Okay, young master. It's a pleasure to serve you, young master. ”

The mummy pushed the door open.

Jones's brow jumped, and he struggled to get his way inside, step by step.

The "avenue" of the castle of the Dracula family is full of ruined atmosphere. There were dead trees on both sides, and the path that could only accommodate one carriage in the middle was also full of fallen leaves, which rustled when stepped on.

The dark clouds in the sky were low, just like Jones's mood at the moment.

After six years, I was full of ambition when I left, and it was very smooth at the beginning. Until...... He ran into the lich with a hole in his brain, became the adopted son of the lich, and was put on a list by heaven that could be punished at any time. When I think about it, it was a sad time, and it was so dark that it didn't see the light of day.

Fortunately, the pit of the lich with a hole in his brain was different from others, and he really succeeded. Truth be told, Jones was really relieved when Heaven announced that the Angel Legion was retreating, and Gray had put him on the protection list, and Heaven was forced to relinquish the right to pursue his past.

That means he's free again, isn't it?

Although the dream is not a word, but it is ...... Can you go home, can't you? But what happens when you get home?

At the beginning, he boasted that he went out of Haikou, but he didn't know if the identity of "a member of the Silver Moon Knights, the adopted son of the paladin Gray and a close guard" would be popular in the eyes of the blood clan?

"Damn, what am I thinking? I actually expect to rely on this status to raise my value?" Jones squatted on the side of the road with his forehead on his forehead, breaking out in a cold sweat and a burst of chagrin: "My God, I'm so depraved, I used to spit on it so much...... But in the past six years, I don't seem to have achieved much other than this. Maybe I should put it another way, like the first in line to the Lich King's throne? Well, I don't believe it myself. The Lich King's throne is not a succession system at all, and I'm not a Lich either...... Why should I want to come back so much?"

"What are you doing, Lord Jones?" asked Dora, suddenly carrying a huge package and craned her neck.

"No! I just haven't been back for a long time, it's just a little emotional!" Jones broke out in a cold sweat.

"Although Master Jones usually has a hard mouth, I didn't expect that I still miss my family very much!"

Dora blinked in relief, and Jones wiped a cold sweat as she walked forward.

There was thunder and a light rain. A couple of vampire squirrels chirped after Jones.

Finally, Jones came to the gate of the castle in the true sense of the word, and looked up at the bell hanging on the door.

Jones hesitated, hesitated, hesitated......

Several flashes of lightning flashed in the sky in succession, adding to the apprehension in his heart.

However, before he could make up his mind to ring the doorbell, the door suddenly snapped open!

"Welcome back, my son, do you miss your father!" a tall, silver-white haired, silver-mustached, handsome man in a black dress roared out and took Jones in his arms and rubbed it again!

"No, father, don't do that, I've grown up! it's humiliating!" Jones desperately tried to push away, but his strength was pitifully small in the face of adult vampires.

Next appeared a woman with long silver hair, a charming face, and a long red dress, who took Jones from the hands of Count Dracula and was a mess.

"My little Jones! Mommy misses you so much!"

"Mom, your lipstick!

Jones continued to struggle, kept screaming, but to no avail, so he gave up struggling and let his parents rub back and forth.

It took a long time for Jones to be put down.

His hair was unkempt, his body was disheveled, and his face was full of lipstick marks. It's as if something has just happened.

Dora looked at him with envy, but he looked dull.

Count Dracula pursed his lips, grabbed Jones's shoulders, and said with emotion: "My child, you don't know how much your parents miss you! ”

Countess Dracula chimed in: "We are more worried when we hear that the children of other families have fallen into the practice of drinking pig's blood. I'm afraid you're malnourished. ”

"Sir, madam, don't worry, drinking pig blood will not be malnourished. Dora interjected.

"Have you drunk?" the countess was stunned.

"No! No! We haven't drunk!" Jones quickly screamed, glaring at Dora with round eyes. The fangs were exposed.

Dora was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth with her hand and lowered her head.

The Count and the Countess breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that I haven't drunk it, I heard that vampires who drink pig blood will become stupid. Although Mom's little Jones is so smart, it's nothing to be stupid. But no one will dislike such a thing as being smart, right?"

"To welcome you back, your mother and I have prepared a special gift for you!"

"Gift?" Jones' eyes widened slowly.

"Yes, surprise! for you. Actually, I was ready a few years ago, but unfortunately you haven't been back for a few years. Count Dracula replied earnestly.

Jones pursed her lips and was so moved that she burst into tears.

After a few minutes......

Jones opened his mouth wide and looked at the chapel in front of him with a blank expression.

Yes, a chapel, a chapel in a room, a cross, holy water, a pulpit, a seat, a statue...... Anyway, the church has all of it.

The Earl and Countess stood behind Jones with a look of relief.

"Do you like this gift? It took a lot of effort from me and your dad to get it. I heard that you now have a weekly service, so we have prepared a chapel for you. So that you can stay longer. ”

"Yes. Although the fact that the Bloods worship really sounds a bit ...... Weird, but as your parents, we respect your choice. Either way, you are our child. We won't dislike you. ”

"Honey, have all the letters to my relatives been sent?"

"Yes, and they've replied. Child, to prove our support for you, we have informed all our relatives and friends that you have to do the weekly prayer service. We think very clearly, as your parents, we should be open first. Otherwise, others will find it even more weird. To be honest, before I received the reply, I was worried that my relatives and friends would not support it. Can...... I blame them, they love you as much as we do. Not only did they show their support, but they also kindly offered to come and see you tomorrow. You can put your Silver Moon armor out and let them see it. ”

"Together...... Watch me preach?" Jones was dumbfounded.

"Yes, they said they had never seen the Bloods worship, and they wanted to see them for themselves. As long as you do it seriously and do it well, you may be able to make worship popular among the Bloodline. ”

Looking up, Jones remembered that he was being watched by a large group of relatives and friends, and goosebumps fell to the ground with shame: "Why do I think they just want to see me laugh?"

"What did you just say, child?" asked Count Dracula.

"No, I didn't say anything!" Jones quickly replied, "I just ...... Mom and Dad! I suddenly remembered that I was in a bit of a hurry, and I had to leave tonight!"

"But you haven't been home in years, are you leaving so soon?"

"Yes, although it is very rushed, but there is no way to do it!" Jones said solemnly: "We are preparing for war with the dragon clan, the military situation is urgent, and I still have a lot of things to do!"

"Don't worry, it's okay. I have written to your adoptive father to ask him to ask for a leave of absence for you. ”

"It's not a question of whether it's okay...... What? You wrote to my adoptive father?" Jones was stunned again.

"Yes. Count Dracula smiled and said, "I have promised to give you a formal succession, and he has granted you a whole year's leave. You can safely stay as long as you want, unless you ...... You don't miss your mom and dad. ”

Speaking of this, Count Dracula's expression suddenly turned cold, and he stared coldly at Jones with Countess Dracula.

Jones shuddered, and had to change his words: "No, of course not. I...... Missed so much. ”
