Section 20. Two flavors

Lucy, the head maid, is a beautiful woman and the most powerful vampire in the castle, the equivalent of a master of the professional system.

It is Erin's luck to let her give Erin a first hug, the stronger the strength of the first embracer, the greater the potential of the first embracer, plus Erin is still a talented warlock.

Annan saw Erin, who had become a vampire, in the middle of the night before his departure the next day. The delicate appearance has a little more bewitching, and the skin has become pale and delicate.

"My sisters and I are very grateful to you...... Please let me follow you and protect you. She stood in front of Annan.

Annan didn't need the protection of Erin, who was just a nascent vampire warlock. But he realized that he seemed to be able to transform this listening branch into the shape he wanted.

For example, he now has his own power in the Blood Clan, and Princess Crimson still has to thank him.

"You've unearthed a vampire warlock for us, say, what reward do you want?" The more Princess Crimson looked, the more she felt that Annan was their lucky subordinate. Alliance, Vampire Warlock...... After coming from Annan, I was pleasantly surprised!

"I didn't expect that yet."

"No, I have to say one!" Princess Crimson coquettishly asks Annan to tell him what she wants.

Annan thought about it seriously, ruled out asking for money, and looked at the crimson princess with black eyes: "Then please continue to move forward unswervingly." Your path may be full of difficulties, ostracized and belittled, and not understood by your peers...... But you're creating a new twilight for the Bloodline. ”

Princess Crimson's mood became much more serious: "I accept your request. ”

Dawn is approaching, and the castle is busy preparing for an evening visit to Duke Skeleton.

The butler and some of the knights stayed at the castle, and Princess Crimson and the head maid and Irene led the team, plus Annan.

There were several carts of gifts for the Duke of Skeletons, and when Annan saw them, he told them to be unloaded, telling Dracula that the Duke of Skeletons did not like the belongings and that it was better to exchange them for some ores and materials.

The rest of the day is good, and the evening comes.

Annan followed Princess Crimson to a beautiful bloody dusk. The crimson princess standing in front of the carriage stretched out her hand, and Annan helped the crimson princess to get on the train.

The crimson princess, who sat in the carriage, patted the empty seat next to her.

"Come up too."

……

Huadu, the tavern of the old town.

Klein, Celine, Fatima Sailer, Mrs. Solow, and a strong man with a squirrel fur around his neck gathered.

The tavern was temporarily taken over by them, and they sat at two patchwork tables with a glass of happy water in front of each of them.

The strong man grabbed the glass first and tasted it. "It's too light." He said, adding two spoonfuls of honey to the happy water, stirring it with a spoon, and drinking it from his glass: "...... This time it's much better. ”

Celine and the others also tried it, and they all said that happy water with honey tasted better.

The people here are even more sugar-thirsty than in the north. Klein thought that only she thought the original taste was the best.

"What should I do?"

Mrs. Solo asked Klein.

Annan gave the Happy Water business to Klein, so they were all her men.

Klein's answer came out of the helmet muffled: "I won't do business, but I'll buy things from merchants who are willing to listen to me." ”

Mrs. Solo smiled with satisfaction: "This is the principle of my business, never teach customers what to do." ”

"But I think both tastes good......" Celine said suddenly.

"Shall we keep it the same or do we sell it with honey?" Fatima Saylor didn't understand any of this.

Only the strong man did not speak, adding honey spoonful after spoonful, and drinking cup after cup.

"It's not a multiple-choice question." Mrs. Solot, the 10th largest wine merchant, spread her hands, "Why don't we sell it in two flavors?" Lemon and honey? ”

Happy Water is mainly to seize the market, and secondly, to take revenge on the nine major wine merchants, so they think that the price is the same as that of maple syrup, 80 copper coins.

Fatima Sayler was in charge of propaganda among the aristocracy, Celine was in charge of propaganda among the merchants, Madame Solow was in charge of her own estate, and now she realized what Annan meant by "for yourself"β€”a drink that was more stimulating than juice and milder than wine would make history.

When it was the turn of the new strong man, he spoke silently, "I'll let the mercenaries try this thing." ”

Talking about the epilogue, Klein said, "One more thing, help me find a theater that is willing to sell. ”

Each of the nine major wine merchants was compensated with 30,000 gold coins and 3,000 gold coins, for a total of 300,000 gold coins. Among them, 250,000 were sent back to Free City by Annan, and 50,000 gold coins were kept to lay a commercial territory in Huadu.

"Theater?" Fatima Sayler didn't seem to hear clearly, "What's the use of buying a place like this?" ”

"This is what Annan demanded." Klein didn't say anything about the magical image.

The women glanced at each other tacitly, and they all thought of Annan standing in the ring dressed in gorgeous costumes and playing the role of a prince......

They themselves think this conjecture is outrageous, but in a way it is really close to the truth.

……

Princess Scarlet really can't seem to tell Annan's identity.

At first, Annan was worried that she would be found in the carriage with Princess Crimson, but she didn't smell her "human smell" at all.

Princess Scarlet has a lot to say about the Bloody Council. For example, Pride says that he is one of the twelve members of the Bloody Council.

Annan thought that he was also one of the twelve kings of the north, but he corresponded.

Annan already knew this from Dracula, but he didn't know the underlying reason: as one of the twelve members of the Bloody Parliament that could stand up to the southern kingdoms, Princess Crimson was weak for a reasonβ€”because of her sleeping mother.

The Bloody Council is the Twelve Grand Dukes, and Princess Crimson's mother is one of them, but due to a change, she falls into an almost eternal sleep, and the Scarlet Princess, who is still just a "child", is forced to wake up and face the position left by her mother and the forces that fall apart.

Annan felt that Princess Crimson was like herself.

"Is it true that the princess is said to be true?" Annan didn't forget to ask.

"You know everything?" Princess Crimson said softly: "The princess has sealed herself in Persona City, but the humans don't know, I want to use the princess to enter the flower capital......"

The plan itself is fine, but the guys who implemented it were too aggressive.

"I'll warn them." Princess Crimson said solemnly.

On the afternoon of the second day of departure, they arrived at Duke Skeleton's necropolis.

The Skeleton King, who greeted him on the surface, held up the hand of the Scarlet Princess and kissed him to welcome, and when it was Annan's turn, his attitude was much closer, and he took Annan's shoulders like a friend, and whispered:

"Welcome, I've got a gift for you, the undead in the neighborhood have been invited over, Princess Mononoke, the Skeleton Maiden, Miss Bandage, Madame Puppet...... I think you'll love it. ”

Annan had to explain: "I'm not one of those warlocks you remember. I may not be very learned, but I do everything I do for the sake of noble faith. ”

"Then I'll let them go back?"

"No, you don't."
