Volume 2 The Cry of the Outcasts Chapter 12 The Day of the Crossroads of Fate

"The Grand Duke is hungry, you can send something, go over...... Follow the road straight ahead and turn right into an iron gate. Then count the third door to the left......"

Sisos led Li Meng out of the secret room, and after saying these words, he turned to leave, and when Li Meng was not looking, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth......

"Go straight, then turn right into an iron gate, then count the third door to the left?"

Li Meng muttered in his mouth, for fear that he would forget, mess things up, and be scolded again...... Plus, the place made him feel a little depressed.

......

In a dimly lit bedroom, obscured by a curtain that obscured all light except the light, Gloa frowned and looked at Anne, who sat motionless at the table.

Perhaps, she is no longer Annie...... She is her own daughter, Akasha.

Her eyes looked a little glazed, and the aroma of the food on the table was enticing, but she didn't have the slightest desire to eat.

Gloria didn't understand why she was the way she was when she regained consciousness, but the newborn Bloodline needed a lot of "nutrients".

These "nutrients" either come from the blood of the upper blood clan, or they are the soul of human beings......

Before that, Gloya had slashed her wrist and tried to control the energy rushing through her body, squeezing out a few drops of blood that he thought would be enough to "feed" Anne.

However, she only glanced faintly, and then turned her gaze.

Geria swore that in that moment, he saw disdain in the eyes of his "daughter"!

Later, Gloya called his attendants and brought a few human maidens. But this time, Anne didn't even seem to want to take a look.

Now, he puts human food in front of Anne......

Anne still hadn't eaten.

So, the cooks, as well as the girls from before, turned into the blood beads in the palms of Glia's hands.

"Akasha?"

"My name is Encore. ”

"Don't make a fuss, that's the name of our ancestors. ”

"I, no kidding. ”

“...... All right. In short, little ghost, you should be aware that you have begun to weaken, and it will not be long before you enter a state of 'thirst for blood'. You have accepted the inheritance of the Bloodline, and you should understand what a terrible thing it is to be 'thirsty for blood'......"

Anne listened, as if remembering something that frightened her, and her face sank.

Seeing this, Geria didn't pay attention to it, it was also the first time he had his own descendants, and it was also the first time...... As a father.

As for Anne's statement that she was an ancestor of the Bloodline, he didn't take it to heart, after all, to him, Anne was still a child.

It doesn't matter if it's based on human age or blood age.

Who hasn't fantasized about being a hero as a child?

Even Glia himself fantasized about becoming a hero like the continental sword saint Egway when he was a child. It's just that this fantasy, after being embraced as a blood clan, has become a character who wants to be like the greatest blood duke in history.

Perhaps, Encore just hasn't recovered from the shock of the inherited memory......

However, she does have to eat, otherwise, she will soon enter a state of "thirst for blood".

When a Bloodline is extremely weak, or has not eaten blood for a long time, they will go mad - madness is not the preserve of the Mokkawi......

(It's just that they're crazy, and the other bloodlines are also afraid)

......

"Squeak......

The door to the room was gently pushed open. Lemon's little head poked out from behind the door.

"Excuse me, sir, do you need to eat here?"

"Well, no...... Wait, little ghost, who told you to come?"

After subconsciously answering Limon's question, Glia's face sank—he had clearly ordered that servants and retinues should not come.

What is Sisos doing?

Then he looked at the little ghost's appearance, and it always felt somewhat familiar, so he searched carefully in the corner of his memory, and then remembered the face that he hated.

The complexion, which was not very good-looking, became even more ugly.

"Are you a child of Glia?"

"Huh, do you know my father?"

Li Meng replied and walked in, and after coming in, he did not forget to bring the door, he came to Glia's side, put the plate full of food in both hands on the table, and asked excitedly, "Uncle, are you sent by him to pick me up?"

"Pick you up?" Glia smiled dumbly, he thought for a moment, and continued to ask, "Do you know who I am?"

"You?"

Li Meng tilted his head, thought about it with a bitter face, and filtered all the characters in his memory, but still did not find a shadow that overlapped with his uncle.

So, he shook his head firmly and replied, "I don't know!"

Don't know?

Forget it, it's just a kid anyway...... Besides, this little guy is still Fiona's titular child......

Glia waved her hand impatiently and said, "If you don't know each other, let's go, what you have to do." ”

"Oh, okay......"

Li Meng was a little disappointed, he also wanted to get some things about his father from Glia, but the other party didn't seem to want to deal with him.

Keeping in mind his sister's teachings, Li Meng bowed deeply to the two people in the room before turning to leave.

When he looked up, he noticed Anne behind Glia.

Looking at Anne's silky and shiny silver hair, Li Meng couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"It doesn't look like I'm old, but my hair is gray, and my sister said that this is called premature aging (Holy Clan idiom). ”

He didn't notice that the corners of Gloa and Anne's mouths twitched almost at the same time......

Well, the Bloodline's mind-reading skills are so sharp......

Suddenly, Anne's expression became a little frightened, and Gloya looked around with some wariness—he sensed an indescribable wave of space.

This kind of fluctuation is familiar to Glia, and yesterday, he experienced it once!

Everything in the room, as if at that moment, was still.

In the corner, an inconspicuous fragment gently pierced through the interwoven curtains of space, and slashed across the index finger of Li Meng's left hand at a speed that ordinary people could not detect.

Then, with a trace of Limmon's blood, it landed on the plate of food that Lemon had just served, after which the fragments disappeared, except for the invisible trace of blood that remained on a piece of buttered bread.

"Ahh

At this time, Li Meng reacted, and he hurriedly put his index finger in his mouth - this was taught by his sister, and it was said that treating the wound in this way would stop the bleeding quickly.

Anne also stopped her panic, her face returned to normal, but her eyes were focused on the butter bread in the plate of food that Li Meng had just brought in front of her.

The crimson pupils were filled with greed and longing.

And as powerful as Glia, he didn't notice what had just happened......

Anxious to find out the secret of the spatial fluctuation just now, he waved his hand and asked Li Meng to hurry out with some impatience.

Li Meng didn't want to stay longer, I don't know why, with the severe pain, he felt that he wanted to sleep now.

Pushing open the door, he stumbled back towards the house where he lived with his sister......

......

In Annie's bedroom, Gloya left after a few words of advice—he was going to gather the elders of Mokawi and ask them about the damned mirror.

With only one left in the room, Anne quickly grabbed the buttered bread from her plate and swallowed it greedily......

After finishing her meal, her body exuded visible blood......
