Section 7. Scarlet Princess
When it comes to entering the dungeon, Annan, King of the North, Nezumi Buster, Champion Rat Hunter, Lord of the Floating City, Champion Warlock, Dungeon Keeper, and King of Hide and Seek Reeves have a lot of experience.
And it's not so resistant - Annan is still wondering if to give up resistance and let them take him into the dungeon, and Huadu owes himself a favor.
"No......" The handsome knight's armor shone under the light technique, announcing the end of Annan: "We have a blood feud with the blood clan...... Go to hell! β
Annan summoned Mr. Swaro at this time, and the epic atmosphere suppressed the underground hall, and the guests testified one after another, and after arriving in Huadu, he claimed to be innocent, and then pierced the identity of the princess - it should have been like this.
But all the torches in the Dark Chamber were suddenly extinguished, and the screaming bats poured into the Dark Hall, and the light magic flickered among the guests in the confusion, and the bats ignored the princess, and did not even take the old vampire next to him, but grabbed Annan and saved him from the predicament of screaming and shouting everywhere.
The good news is that Annan is out of trouble, and the bad news is that it was a bat that saved him - confirming the slander of the princess.
It was late at night outside, and the knights and soldiers stood in front of the hill with the entrance to the deep cave with torches.
The distance is brightly lit, and it's not too far from the flowers.
Tens of thousands of bats threw the soldiers on the ground into chaos, and high in the sky, Annan was carried by them into the night and into the mountains.
I don't know how long it has been, bats forming a black ribbon in the night sky approaching an ancient castle in the woods.
The black ribbon spreads out, and Annan is placed on the terrace of the kasbah by a swarm of bats.
The back of a scarlet dress stood in front of the guardrail, looking out over the secluded forest.
"You were so careless that you actually fell into the hands of humans."
Am I being taken for a vampire? Annan thought.
The back of the red dress continued: "A guy like you will be imprisoned and tortured in the basement by those greedy human nobles. β
Annan intends to be a little more honest: "Do we know each other? β
"Of course you won't know me, just remember that I saved you."
The girl looked back. Scarlet lips, pale complexion, elegant evening dresses...... These can make any noble lady intoxicating, but not for a girl who doesn't look like an adult and is a head shorter than Annan.
"So, who are you, lady who saved me?"
She looked up proudly, showing her tiny fangs slightly, "I am the Scarlet Lord, the Blood Princess Lena!" β
As a friend of Vampire Wood, Annan knows vampires well. They used the titles baron, earl, prince, to represent strength and status, and the gods of all the bloods, the vampire queens of the past, and the god of love now - Annan was sure that the bloodlines did not have the title of "princess".
She's self-styled? Or a wild vampire?
The door to the terrace opened, and an old, thin, gray-haired old butler stood straight.
His old but piercing gaze looked at Annan, and when he almost thought that he was about to be recognized, the butler's gaze suddenly softened, and he bent down slightly, speaking in an elegant tone and an ancient accent: "Welcome, newborn kind, I hope you will cherish the time you spend with the princess." β
Annan couldn't help but touch the collar of the mage's robe, but there was nothing there.
"With all due respect, how do you tell I'm of the same kind?"
The butler said with a slight superiority: "As a human being, he has an elven-like appearance, and only a noble blood clan can do it. β
It seems that appearance is also common to the Bloodlineβif not more so.
But it does...... Compared to "Princess" and "Butler", Wood looks like a hillbilly with a dung fork.
"What's the matter, Dracula."
The steward bowed his head: "Our messenger has been killed by the undead. β
"The messenger didn't tell us what the bones were for?"
"I think it did, but something should have happened."
"Send another messenger and tell him what to do and what not to do."
The butler retreated, and Annan regained his relaxation - the princess didn't look so smart: "You...... Are we united with the undead? β
"Can't you?"
Lena stared at Annan's face, which made her unable to help but marvel, especially the eyes......
"Won't they betray us?"
"Why? This would be the greatest collaboration in the history of the Bloodline! We can rest assured, for the spirits of the dead desire only the flesh and blood of the living. The undead can also rest assured that we only suck human blood. β
"What about the elves?"
"That's a taste better than the strong."
"What about the orcs?"
"It's unpleasant!"
"What about the dwarves?"
"It's better, but it's also unpleasant."
"Where's the nezumi?"
"Stink! It stinks to death! A vampire who drinks the blood of a nezumi is not even as good as a blood slave! β
It seems that there is also a chain of contempt between evil creatures.
Vampires correspond to elves, nezumi correspond to orcs, undead correspond to dwarves, what about humans?
"What about the demons?"
"I didn't ...... You've got too many questions! β
Lena suddenly turned into a ball of bats and disappeared into the terrace, leaving only the sound to echo.
"Stay here, I'll be back in a minute!"
Annan, who originally wanted to go back before the princess and the knight smeared him, suddenly became less urgent, he wanted to see what these blood clans were going to do.
With a copy on the terrace table, Annan picked up "The Seventh Night" and flipped to the page with the bookmark in it.
His lips kissed Isa's neck, a mortal threat to the Bloodline, but he was only human...... And Isha has sunk in this forbidden and dangerous love......"
Love?
Annan poured out strange and reasonable emotions as he turned back to the first page to see what the Scarlet Princess was looking at......
The story is about a handsome human named David who strays into the vampire kingdom and is rescued by Isha, a dejected blood princess who is about to be killed by a blood servant. Isha wants to give Hatsu to David, but he refuses, asking Isha to kill him, but Isha is already in love with him......
Further down is the part with the bookmark. Annan skips to the last chapter, Seventh Night: David betrays Isha and kills his lover with a silver knife in his sleep.
The Scarlet Princess never appeared, and Annan looked up, and it was almost dawn.
Annan wasn't sure if there would be a bat hanging upside down somewhere staring at this time...... Probably not, otherwise the Scarlet Princess would have rushed over in a panic and snatched it when she picked up the book......
Annan opened a portal on the terrace.
Evelyn's head popped out on the edge of the portal, "What's wrong?" β
"Didn't you sleep?"
"No, do you have any news for me?"
"No, just remembered one thing." Annan waved "Seventh Night," and the Potter brothers said, remember to add the screenwriter Demon Maharaja to the staff. β
"Got it, how are you doing over there?"
"All the best, except I should be wanted."
"Wanted by a vampire?"
"No, now I'm a vampire, and it's the Southern Nation that wants me."
