Section 95. The Progenitor of Vampires

"The situation was very different then and now...... The world is still elven calendar, and human beings are still weak, reduced to food and playthings for the bloodline. In this case, the vampire queen's overtures to humanity represent a new beginning......"

The lord was educating his staff and supporters about the benefits of doing so. He knew that the Scarlet Princess's position in the Blood Council was a little awkward...... But it doesn't matter, they just don't know.

The festival lasts for several days and welcomes guests from all over the southern countries.

And the most attractive thing is undoubtedly the meeting between the princess and the crimson princess.

The former is the savior of the Hearsa crisis, and the latter is an evil race that has always been in literature and horror stories.

They attracted a lot of attention, and the Lord's Mansion took the opportunity to publicize that a vampire ancestor had been in contact with the southern kingdoms thousands of years ago, as well as to capture the inhabitants of the resistance.

Princess Scarlet wasn't a good candidate to talk about formally, and she knew it, so she left the negotiations to her right-hand man Dracula, who was obsessed with the gem herself.

She says that Crimson Heart possesses a mystical power that benefits her.

No wonder.

Vampires are not dragons, how can they not be able to walk because of gems.

Annan took the opportunity to get to know many nobles and reached a preliminary cooperation with them - for the lords and lords of the city, they provided the land, and Annan provided the taxes.

The cooperation was supported by Annan's recent week's earnings from the theater and the taxes he paid...... Faced with real money, most nobles readily agreed.

It's not that there are no fools who say, "I open my own theater to show magical images, why should I divide the money with you?" All Annan has to do is remember this guy's name and then say it to the City Lord's Mansion.

It won't be long before these guys will come to visit Annan in the warehouse with gifts in a panic, and Annan will then say that he doesn't mind agreeing to cooperate.

The princess is Annan's backer, Princess Crimson is Annan's backer, and now even flowers are Annan's backer-

But they reminded Annan. There will be no shortage of nobles and businessmen with this idea but without saying it, especially businessmen, and they can't miss the huge profits of magical images.

The theater was laid out quickly, but fortunately, Liberty City had enough talent.

There are already signs of this...... Privately, a number of merchants began to show privately with a philosopher's stone and an empty room, with prices ranging from 10 silver coins to 1 silver coin.

When Editia asked Annan if she wanted to ban it, Annan voluntarily refused.

Their ticket price is 1 gold during the day and 50 silver at night. Drive out pirates, and those who don't have money still look down on them. It is better to harvest money from the rich and earn the favor of the poor.

"They have been nurtured by us since childhood, they have learned our language, they are familiar with our culture, and they are naturally close to us...... Be on our side. ”

Most of the people in this world have never been to Wilhelm, but it has never affected their yearning for Wilhelm.

……

In the garden cottage, the crimson princess holds the crimson heart, silently absorbing the power emitted by the crimson heart.

It's hard to imagine, but she did get the power of her bloodline from this ruby...... As if it were not a ruby, but the neck of some epic.

But this absorption is not infinite, the original crimson gemstone has become amber-like translucent, and it will not be long before it will turn from a magnificent ruby to a colorless crystal......

"If you absorb it any longer, I'll really dissipate......"

At some point, an old whisper rang in the Crimson Princess's ears.

Princess Crimson froze there, staring at the rippled rubies.

"Who are you?"

"Just like you, a vampire. My name ...... "It seemed like a long time ago, far enough for the old voice to recall," I was called Victor Morrell ...... then."

"I don't know ......," Princess Crimson couldn't remember hearing the name. What do you mean when you say it's going to dissipate? ”

"Ruby is my seal......

"Shouldn't that have broken your seal?"

"It's been so much time that the seal has become a part of me...... The seal is gone, and I will die. ”

Princess Crimson understands why she was able to "suck" a ruby.

She was not used to talking to food while "eating", so she let go of Crimson and came out of the room to find the head maid who was teaching Erin etiquette in the living room.

"Lucy, do you know who Victor Morrell is?"

"Victor...... That's our ancestor, the first generation of bloody parliamentarians. ”

Princess Crimson was surprised and said, "Is he still alive?" ”

"That Ancestor disappeared a thousand years ago...... Rumor has it that the god of love hunted him. ”

Princess Crimson learned something about the vampire progenitor and remembered something: "What about Annan? ”

"A knight named Reiner just called him out."

"Oh."

Princess Crimson returned to her room and stared at the much clearer ruby, "Are you really Victor Morrell?" ”

"I don't think anyone would pretend to be a vampire from the past."

"That's right...... How did Ling die? "Princess Crimson obviously doesn't talk.

"I'm not dead, I'm just sealed. I'm curious, you actually have pure blood......"

Princess Crimson raised her head slightly, "Because I'm the Lord of Scarlet, Liana Driss Steulette." ”

Sturett ...... Who are you? ”

"My mother, do you know her?"

"She had just become the youngest genius when I was sealed...... Serena O's child, please tell me about what happened.

Princess Scarlet didn't suspect it, and told the progenitor who called herself Victor a lot, including what happened after she was kicked out of the Bloody Council, and after coming to Huadu.

Speaking about buying Crimson Heart back from a jewelry store, Victor said, "I know, I just can't get in touch with the outside world, but I can still see ...... outside."

"You like him?"

"W-what......" Princess Crimson panicked for a moment.

"You said a lot of good things about that boy." Victor's whisper was smiling.

"It's just...... It's just that he can give me anything I want, and he helped me so much......"

Victor seemed to remember the good old days from the crimson princess who wanted to cover up: "Remember to give him the first hug." ”

"First hug? He has been given. ”

"He's still a human ......"

"It can't be!" Princess Crimson's attitude is more intense than expected.

"If you don't believe it...... Give it a try with sunshine. That's the weakness of all Bloods, even Catherina is going to be weakened. ”

"Catherina?"

“…… Your first father, the god of love. ”

Princess Scarlet's ignorance makes Victor wonder if she is a hillbilly vampire...... Otherwise, it means that vampires are almost like blood beasts without intelligence.
