Chapter 22: The Vampire Hunter Guild
"Wait...... Romon you just called Miss Phoebe...... Mother...... Mom?"
Leah sensed something was wrong.
"Oops, hey, hey, hey, hey, !?hey,
Eve was stunned for a moment, then let out a surprised sound.
"Well......"
Romon scratched his head and looked at Phoebe with some confusion as to explain it.
"Ahh......h
The young shopkeeper tilted his head and put his hand on his cheek.
So the four of them sat down, and after some conversation, Leah and Eve realized that Romon was Phoebe's adopted son, and Phoebe herself was a vampire. So the mystery of the fifteen or sixteen-year-old mother and the child who looked like an uncle was solved.
"I see, so this novel is Miss Phoebe's autobiography?"
Leah patted the book and said.
"Well...... That's what you say......"
Romon saddled his feet on the table, then took the dagger from his bosom and aimed it at the beard that was beginning to grow on his chin. However......
"How many times have I said that you are not allowed to shave in that rude way, and ...... Feet! Get off the table!"
Seeing Luo Meng's appearance, Phoebe suddenly bared out her sharp little tiger teeth, and reprimanded angrily.
"Oops!"
Seeing Phoebe's anger, Romon hurriedly put down his feet, but it was too late.
"Come !! me"
Phoebe grabbed Romon by the ear and carried him to the side of the coffee shop.
"How many times have you said that you must be elegant when you go out!What about the aristocratic etiquette I taught you!?Go to the bathroom and shave your beard!and...... What's the matter with this dress? It's all dust...... How many days have you not changed......?
"It's Mom. ”
"Yes, it's Mom. ”
saw the uncle being taken away by a loli and reprimanded. Leah and Eve looked at each other, their faces strange, not knowing what to say.
After a few minutes......
"I'm sorry. Let you see the faux pas. ”
Phoebe walked in with a warm business smile and apologized to the two of them, then she turned her head. looked at the other side of the room and said, "What are you still grinding, come out soon!"
"Yes, yes, I'll come out, I'll come out......"
So what came out of there was a change of dress, the rough atmosphere was completely gone, and he looked like a little nobleman.
"Poof...... Hahaha......"
Leah couldn't help but laugh out loud as she looked at the man who had been forcibly shaved clean and dressed in a well-mannered manner.
"Ahh The other side of Romon. ”
Eve covered her mouth and smiled evilly, and a big ginger cat lay on her head, covering her mouth very appropriately.
"Please, don't, the tough guy image I just erected in front of Linda will be shattered. ”
Romon waved his hand repeatedly.
"Huhuhu, what should I do?"
"Eun, what should I do?"
Eve and Leah crossed their fingers, held hands, and smiled evilly at Romon.
"Uh...... A breakfast...... Oh no...... A lunch !!"
Romon scratched his hair in anguish, and finally decided to bribe the two.
"Deal!"
Leah grinned and nodded.
"What...... Obviously, this dress is very majestic. That's how Vincent was dressed back then, and he was known as the noble son of the blood hunt. ”
Seeing Romon being teased by the girls, Phoebe pouted while playing with the cat bell around her neck.
"Anyway. You're here for the vampires, aren't you?"
Romon sat down and said solemnly.
"If I'm right, Romon you're actually a vampire hunter. ”
Leah nodded. Then he asked rhetorically.
"Ah...... Now that you're here, there's nothing to hide. That's right, I'm a vampire hunter. At least it used to be. ”
"But why didn't you tell us?"
Eve tilted her head.
"About this...... You should know that vampires have a principle of escapism. ”
Romon asked.
"Ah, I know. Normally, vampires will never tell anyone that they are vampires, and will do their best to avoid being in front of people, except for prey. ”
Leah nodded. This rule is not absolute, at least Daris appeared in front of them blatantly, but in general, escapism is the consensus of most vampires, and it is also in line with their desire for immortality**, after all, the more people who know that they are vampires, the more people will come to crusade and kill them - a dozen Bel Te demolition offices every day is definitely not a good way to live forever, poor Count de la has already proved this on the distant earth.
"Bloodhunt has the same rule, which is that vampire hunters will never tell anyone that they are vampire hunters. The Bloodhunters believe that if vampires are a stealthy race, then they are more secretive than their enemies, and if they are the darlings of darkness, then they need to make these enemies afraid of the night.
It sounds a bit pretentious, and the rules aren't all that absolute, but you see, I've told you what I know and what I judge, and whether I'm a vampire hunter or not, it doesn't matter if I don't say it. ”
Romon shrugged.
"You have a point, but I still want you to tell me about it, because I can find other bloodhunts through you. ”
Leah smiled wryly.
"There's no drama, there's no drama, I haven't done this since the beginning of this year, and even my mother ...... here"
Speaking of this, he raised his chin at the café and continued, "You see, this used to be a hidden Vampire Hunter Guild stronghold, and most of the people who came here to drink coffee were Bloodhunt, but now, it's just an ordinary coffee shop, and occasionally one or two Bloodhunters come here for a drink. ”
"But why don't you stop being vampire hunters?"
Eve tilted her head.
"Because the climate has changed. ”
Phoebe sighed.
"Ethos?"
Leah was puzzled.
"As you can see, I'm a real vampire, though I haven't sucked blood for a long, long time since Vincent's death. ”
"Wait, isn't it okay for vampires not to suck blood?"
Leah asked.
"Vampires' bloodthirsty impulses come from True Ancestors. If you don't eat blood regularly, you will be like a human without drinking water...... No, it's even worse than that.
However, the red lycene in tomatoes can alleviate this to a certain extent. For vampires, what is even more unbearable for them is the loss of strength due to lack of blood, such as me, although I am a third-generation blood clan, I have become weak to the point of being an ordinary person. ”
Leah notices that Phoebe's coffee cup is filled with tomato juice. (To be continued......)
