Chapter 6: Temptation

The dark night sky is accompanied by stars covering the glorious white sun.

"Hmm...... Where do you stay next? ”

Emlyn loosened her thick scarf and took off her sunglasses, revealing a handsome face and blood-red eyes.

This looks and sounds don't match...... Leonard looked at Emlyn in front of him with a little surprise, he had thought this gentleman was a middle-aged gentleman.

"Stinky boy, he may be older than your adoptive father, you know, the lifespan of the Bloodline is very long......," Parles said slowly, "It seems that you really need to read more books about extraordinary creatures." ”

Sissel looked at the streets that were still lit up, and didn't care:

"I'll stay in a hotel, thank you today. I'll give you that doll now...... Uh, I mean, to your friends. ”

Faced with Emlin's instantly red face, the empathetic Sissel quickly changed his tune.

He took out a square-folded "human skin" from his suitcase, did not look at Emlyn again, and said:

"I'll give you the instructions for use, this is a new model, and it's easy to carry......"

"I, thank you for my friend! Then I'll go first, and I'll get in touch when I have something. ”

Emlyn blushed and quickly took the doll, whispered something indistinctly, and walked away without looking back.

"This kid is still a little afraid of socializing."

Sissel shook his head with a smile, looked at Leonard who was waiting, pointed to a hotel not far away, and asked:

"That'...... Where are we going? ”

……

Sissel and Leonard travel to Beckland at noon on the second day.

Crane nervously knocked on the door of the suspected vampire, with the potion he had previously concocted in his pocket.

"That...... Is anyone at home, please? ”

No one responded, except for the sound of rummaging through the room.

He waited patiently for a while, but no one came out for a long time, so he was half lost and half lucky to prepare to escape.

"Crunch-"

At that moment, the door opened.

The door was opened by the former Bloodline, Perzley Moss.

His face was haggard, and he looked like he should have not slept for many days, but the thick dark circles under his eyes made his pale face a little funny.

"Who are you? Why? ”

He stared at Crane viciously, causing Crane's back to tingle, and his heart kept beating back.

"Uh, that ......"

Crane had already decided to give up on this temptation, and he opened his mouth to try to fool the dangerous person in front of him in order to get himself out.

But Persley didn't give him a chance, and directly frowned, approached Crane, and almost fell on top of him.

"It's ...... The taste of honeysuckle? ”

Perzeli looked at the delicate young man in front of him like a leopard on the verge of a hair, and his nose twitched, as if he smelled something unpleasant.

How could it be! It, it smells?!

Klein's back was already soaked in cold sweat at this time, and the wind blew and made him shiver.

I should have reported it to the church before! Damn it! Klein cursed and turned to look at Perzeli in front of him in horror.

"Are you...... Who? I don't know you......"

Perzeley's eagle-like eyes stared fiercely at Klein, waiting for his answer.

Oh! O goddess!

Lord Crimson, Mother of Secrets, Empress of Fear and Calamity......

Crane prayed in his heart to his faith, the goddess of the night, and stammered in reply:

"Uh, I, I'm here to check the ...... of the meter, the meter"

Perzley paused, looked at Klein suspiciously, and muttered:

"I don't use much...... Are humans so strict now......"

Mankind! The word "human" was indeed used!

Even without looking at the color of the potion hidden under his clothes, Crane was sure that the man with messy hair and disheveled clothes in front of him was a flesh-eating vampire!

Oh! Goddess...... Crane grumbled in his heart again, and honestly followed Purzley into the house.

Perhaps, after he has carefully checked the gas meter, this terrible vampire will let him go? I hope so......

As soon as he entered the room, the first thing that caught Klein's eye was the crumpled white paper that could be seen everywhere, as well as various experimental equipment and medicinal herbs.

The thick smell of medicinal herbs in the air made Klein frown slightly, and he glanced at it casually, and all he saw were the names of some precious medicinal herbs.

Moon flowers, honeysuckle, rare moon orchids, etc......., etc., etc

These are herbs for the Crimson Moon in the sky.

Why, this vampire is still a believer in the goddess...... Crane didn't think much about it, remembering how Melissa had fiddled with the machine, and flapped and drummed at the gas meter.

In the end, Klein also pretended to drop a coin.

Scold!

A flame quickly rose and then grew in size, illuminating the dimly lit room.

"Look, it doesn't seem to be a ...... Then I'll take my leave. ”

Crane now wanted to turn into a blast of wind and rush to the door, away from this dangerous place.

Poisley, who didn't know much about the human world, couldn't see any clues, and responded casually.

Crane breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to leave, but the next second he was suddenly startled by what was in front of him and fell to the ground.

- That's a human skeleton! A real human skeleton!

Seeing this, Pursley snorted disdainfully, but still reached out and wanted to help Klein.

Klein didn't turn his mind for a while, and actually took the pale hand in front of him.

However, just as he stood up, he felt a slippery sensation in his clothes, it was a potion! The potion of temptation - it's gone!

Boom!

The sound of glass breaking and the smell of potions mixed with the smell of herbs in the air undoubtedly caught Perzeley's attention, and he looked down and after clearly smelling the smell of the potion, his body suddenly twitched slightly.

Oops!

In that book "Vampire Studies", there is a deliberate emphasis on the pen and ink -

"Vampires must not be allowed to smell the potion clearly!"

Crane's throat was at the highest, and he looked at Perzeley, then at the potion flowing on the ground, gritted his teeth, shook off Perzeley's hand, and rushed towards the door.

Melissa! Benson!

The threat of death clouded Klein's heart, and he staggered, then continued to run.

Soon! It's almost there!

The sunlight outside the door replaced the cold wind, swaying on the snow-white earth, so warm, so desirable.

Suddenly, a cold hand was placed on his shoulder, and Crane was about to step into the light when he was dragged back by Persley!

I saw that the eyelids drooping in front of him had a strange smile, and he looked at Klein with a frightened face in an uncertain sense, and said slowly:

"Your potion...... How did it come about? ”

Finished......

Klein thought desperately, but there seemed to be a gray mist rolling in his head, and he handed him a message-

“□□,”

“□□□□,”

“□□□□,”

“□□…… □□……”

In a dreamy tone, Crane silently read out the honorific name that pointed to an existence under Perzeley's stunned gaze.

……

Sissel, who was resting in the Beckland inn, was inspired and heard a vague prayer in his ears.

"Huh?"

He lowered his starry eyes, smiled inexplicably and muttered:

"Someone still prays to me?"
