Eshurufat was a little at a loss. Although he has experienced countless scenes, it is really the first time that such a girl has hugged him and cried. And he didn't even know what it was for.

"Carrie, what should I do?" Ashrufat asked in his mind.

"It's a pity, host, I can't help in any way. Carrie admitted her powerlessness in this regard, leaving everything to Ashrufat alone.

It took him a long time to remember that the first thing he should have done was to comfort and comfort Leia, telling her to stop crying first. When they came in today, Ashruphat noticed Leia's presence, but he didn't pay much attention to it. To be honest, he had no idea that the invisible Léa would be able to wander around the castle alone to find him.

He had a one-sided relationship with this young soothsayer, but it was only one-sided. In retrospect, the results of Léa's divination for him were really too consistent. But that doesn't explain why Léa is so emotional about him...... Wait a minute, he remembered that he had indeed told Leia his name, and that Leia had come here...... This meant that she already knew who he was.

"Don't cry, don't cry......" he scrambled to wipe away the tears of the maiden's soothsayer. "Tell me, what's going on?"

"Master, you're terrible at comforting women. Carrie suddenly interjected in that playful tone.

"Shut up!" Ashruphat yelled back in his head.

Ashrufat's words may have lacked skill, but they worked. Léa slowly stopped crying and straightened up. But her words were somewhat incoherent. Grandma, fears, threads of fate, illness, and so on. In short, Ashrufat could barely understand it. So all he could do was put his arm around Leia's shoulders and quietly listen to her finish speaking.

Léa said all the words that had been stored in her heart, but she was surprised to find that Ashrufat didn't seem to find anything. By the way, grandma said that men are stupid, and they usually don't understand what you mean unless it's the most direct words.

Calm down! Calm down! Haven't you already made up your mind?!

"Your grandmother is dead, so now you have nowhere to go?" Ashrufat's logical inductive ability finally analyzed some information from Léa's illogical words.

"If you still don't understand, master, you're not worthy of being a man!" said Carrie, interested, but this time Ashruphat was not even interested in replying to her.

"Léa, I'm not human, I'm a vampire. He steadied himself and replied. His fangs bared out of his mouth - he was able to control that very well now. But he immediately understood how stupid he really was, because Leia's eyes couldn't see at all.

"I know. Léa replied.

"What are you ...... for?" said Ashrufat, who regretted it as soon as he said it. Of course, Léa knew that she hadn't predicted exactly what would happen when he came to Sylvania, but that time he didn't take those words to heart (and even quickly forgot about them completely), so he took a detour. Since she can predict the future so accurately, she naturally knows where she is going and who she wants to be with.

Leia put her arms around his neck, and he unconsciously lowered his head. The girl's warm lips touched his. The message of this action is more than any woman can put into words.

"You can ...... Let me stay?" said Léa in his ear in a barely audible voice.

A gentle breeze flows through this enclosed space. Ashrufat turned his head to see Scarlet appear on the side of the room.

Scarlet's face was full of anger, and her eyes were fixed on the girl in Ashrufat's arms. She held a wooden stick in her hand that could be used as a crutch, but she angrily threw it aside.

"Master, leave her. That woman is dangerous......" Scarlet said, but she may also find this sentence unconvincing, because Leia was wearing pajamas at this time, and she couldn't hide even the smallest dagger on her body, so she immediately changed the subject. "She was wandering around the castle just now, and tricked me into getting her a cane, only to break me up!

"I know. Ashrufat replied. "Do you want to go back to the Hama Clan?" he whispered to the girl in his arms.

"Don't give me back to them. A sense of unease appeared on the girl's soothsayer's face, and her hand clutched Ashrufat's sleeve tightly. "Please......"

"She was most likely a spy. ”

"An invisible spy?"

"If she wants to do something she doesn't need eyes. Ashorufat, who was glaring, replied unceremoniously. "You told me you were likely to go to war with the Hamas, and then you took a girl they sent in your arms like that. I feel like your self-contradiction has reached a new level. ”

"I know what I'm doing. Ashrufat replied.

"Well, you can do whatever you want. Scarlet stared at him for several seconds, and finally replied coldly. Her hostility was so obvious that Ashrufat didn't understand why she was so angry. Maybe she felt her duty challenged, or maybe she felt humiliated by being deceived so easily.

"You're wrong to think so......" Carrie suddenly said in her mind.

"What?"

"Nothing. Carrie replied. "But you better be careful, her temperature is dropping. ”

Only then did Ashruphat realize that Leia's arm was cold. The temperature in his castle was warmer than outside, but Léa was afraid that it would freeze like this. He untied his cloak and wrapped around the slightly trembling body of the maiden's soothsayer. It's hard to tell if the shiver was due to the cold or something else.

......

"It's here. She heard Scarlet's voice. Then, Scarlet gently twisted her hand and let her sit on the bed. It was indeed her bed, and her hand felt for her fur coat.

Perhaps Scarlet's hostility was not over, but he still brought her all the way back, and carefully pointed out every step and obstacle.

"I have to say, you're really bold. Just find a vampire and throw yourself into your arms?" Scarlet didn't mean to leave immediately, but sat down next to her. Her fingers touched Scarlet's body, feeling the coldness of the metal. She realized it was a piece of armor.

"You've met him?" Scarlet continued.

"In the past, as a guest, he asked me for a fortune divination of the future. She replied.

"That's it?"

"I saw the thread of his fate, the ...... of his destiny Something that connects with me......" Leia felt her face burn, and this was the first time she had told anyone other than her grandmother about it. Her hands gripped her skirt tightly.

"Oh, so what did you see by the way?"

"I saw a picture, I saw him...... He...... Take me ...... Hold in your arms...... I think that means I ...... with him" Her voice was as light as a mosquito, almost inaudible.

"Oh my God...... Because you saw this picture, do you think he should be with you?" Scarlet's voice was half exclamation and half mockery. "Don't be so naïve. I can tell you that he is a vampire, a real vampire. He is not human, and he does not have as many feelings as humans. To him, human beings are just servants and food. How do you think the name 'vampire' came from? It's not out of nowhere! He's going to eat you...... Rip your throat and drink your blood!"

"Ah......h "But he ......"

"He has no desires for men and women, only for blood-sucking. His heart was cold and dark, and he just deliberately pretended to be an ordinary person. In that picture, he's holding you in his arms? Why can't you understand that maybe he's looking at your neck, looking for a good place to lower your mouth? If I'm you, then I'm going to do a good divination for myself again. ”

Scarlet stood up.

"Rest well. If he has his eye on you, then tomorrow you will be left behind. Otherwise, you will be sent away. You should know that several girls have been sent over. They don't have a chance to leave, but you do. It's your right to give up this opportunity, but it's best to think about it. ”

When Leia came back to her senses and wanted to say something, Scarlet had already left. She could only sit there. Is that really the case? Or is it ...... Uneasiness gripped her, but she still heard a strange breath in her ears, a small child's breath.

"Who?" she held out a hand, but touched something furry. It wasn't fur, it was a living thing.

Ashruphat continued to look at the map ahead.

He continued to think about his battle plan. If he had previously thought it would be difficult for the Ryan to convince the Hamas to attack Sivania, the arrival of the envoys had almost shattered his illusions. The legation's apparent justification sounded good: to ally with him against Ryan. But if he can't see the truth behind it, he's simply blind.

Ylang's words are true. If this does happen......

He continued to look at the map, slowly jotting down the favorable conditions and the various disadvantages on a piece of paper. Once war breaks out (of course, war is bound to come, the only difference is who the opponent is), how to grasp the various favorable conditions and avoid the unfavorable conditions. And how to fight when the opponent has the advantage. Thomas said that this is what a general must do. A general has two main tasks, the first is to plan before the battle, and the second is to command the battle.

He put down his pen and let out a sigh.

"Master, your heart is in turmoil. In her mind, Carrie said. "Any questions?"

"Carrie, don't you know how to calculate, help me calculate, how many chances I have to win?"

"If you're an enemy of the Hamas, you've got a thirty-four percent chance of winning, and if you're playing against the Ryans, you're going to have a twenty-one percent chance of winning. But if you attack in the worst possible way, i.e. the Hammad and Ryan attack one after the other, your chances of winning are ...... Only three percent. Honestly, it's not good. Carrie replied. "In my opinion, this time, if possible, you should avoid war with the Hama Clan. No matter how unlikely it is to negotiate with the envoys, it is impossible to give up, because the alliance is far more advantageous than the hostile. But there are churches pushing for ...... You don't have to force it. ”

Ashrufat sighed again, and Carrie's judgment was in line with his. Bellell, is this the general's way of the king? maybe. This is much more powerful than the dispatch of troops on the battlefield.

"You mean to force me to send Léa back?"
