The place where the banquet was held was the main hall of the castle. The stairs spiraled down. Alicia stood on the middle steps, looking down at the crowd, while the two brothers stood on both sides of her, like knights guarding her. It made other vampires dare not show any dissatisfaction with her on the surface.
Wen Ying's eyes fell on them, but neither Osmond nor Oswald looked at her.
"What's wrong with them?" Freno asked in a low voice.
Wen Ying shook her head, "Just wait and see."
On the steps, Oswald announced that today's ceremony host will be handed over to Alicia, and when she seemed uneasy, he gave her an encouraging look, and Alicia took the right to speak contentedly, "Thank you, dear .”
The interaction between them caused the vampires to talk a lot.
Without any nonsense, she smiled and said: "Thank you for coming today. I think we can serve an appetizer before the first hug ceremony." She clapped her hands, and her servants brought up the people she needed .
A well-dressed man with a pot belly was brought up, his hands were tied behind his back, he tried his best to maintain his aristocratic demeanor, but he was still staggered by the servants. He widened his eyes, "How dare you treat me like this, I am the prince of Country Y! Who are you?!"
"Hello, Your Royal Highness." Alicia made a welcome gesture, "Welcome to Duke Setet's castle."
"Duke Setet..." The man seemed to think of something, his eyes popped, and he trembled greatly, "That, that..."
"Vampire Castle."
Alicia smiled and said the name he recognized, and the man suddenly trembled like chaff.
He knew, he knew this place, which was a taboo place among the members of the royal family, because it was said that the Duke of Setet and his younger brother who lived here were both vampires, so none of them dared to approach this place.
Alicia also explained to the vampires: "Everyone here knows that the reason why Setete was named Duke by King Y's family is precisely because Prince Setete saved the lives of their ancestors in the war. Hundreds of years later, the identity of Prince Setet was exposed by the vampire hunter, and he was attacked by him, but their descendants turned a blind eye to it, not only did not send anyone to protect them, but also provided convenience for the vampire hunter Because of the fear of vampires in their hearts."
"Prince Setet has always been mainly sucking animal blood. Not only did he not harm humans, but he also rescued and protected them. Is this their reward for the prince?"
"At that time, the sons of the two princes were still young and had no ability to protect themselves. They were almost killed by vampire hunters. It was our vampire elders who put pressure on the royal family and finally made them safe."
The people from the Elder's House nodded frequently below, and when everyone looked at it, they raised their glasses to signal to everyone.
Wen Ying noticed the tacit understanding between the two, and she began to speculate on the ins and outs of this matter. How Alicia obtained the love potion is unknown. She suspects that Duke William wanted to avenge her and her two brothers. Under the condition that they cannot kill the same kind, what could be more satisfying for him than to insult the two brothers? ? Just because Duke William knew the truth and used it to mock her, he couldn't escape suspicion.
The House of Elders will never provide her with such convenience. They are also vampires anyway, and they will not send a human to manipulate the same kind. But this does not prevent them from taking advantage of the fire. She knew that the House of Elders had always wanted the two brothers to agree to their proposition, but the two brothers did not agree for a long time. Today's theme is obviously first embrace, but there is such a play ahead, then it is very likely that Alicia and the elders' house have reached a cooperation. They become Alicia's backstage, and Alicia uses the love potion to help the elders' house Reach the goal.
While she was thinking, Alicia's "speech" continued over there.
"Although I am also a human being, I am ashamed of humans with despicable morals. I would like to become a vampire and enjoy the darkness with you forever." As soon as she finished speaking, there was applause in the main hall. Alicia, who has the rhythm in her hands, is getting more and more calm, "Oswald and Osmond have agreed to the expansion plan of the Presbyterian House, and are going to reach an agreement with the royal family through the human identity of the Duke of Setet. You provide quantitative blood food and living blood bags."
There was a commotion in the hall, and the vampires suddenly became excited. Blood eating is an eternal theme, especially after they were forced to blend into human society and "settled" for centuries, they couldn't wait to extend their claws to humans .
Of course, if you can enjoy all this comfortably, why not
Alicia cast her smiling eyes on the face of Prince Y, "Will you agree to our humble request, Prince?"
"This, this, this, I can't decide, I am only the sixth in line of succession." The prince was frightened out of his wits by what she said, "I must invite my mother to... ah!"
Before he could finish his sentence, a servant quickly cut a wound on his body with a sharp armor, and blood spattered. The prince's face was as white as paper, and he almost fainted from fright.
The smell of blood wafted away, and the vampires laughed.
"Your mother has already agreed, otherwise, she would not have allowed us to kidnap you...as an apology for the unexpected death of Prince Setet and sincerity before signing the agreement."
The real agreement is naturally carried out in secret, and a person will be brought out just to adjust the atmosphere of the banquet. Sure enough, when the blood gushed out, and when they saw the cowardly appearance of human beings, the vampires present changed from their elegant image in the past and became extremely fanatical.
Why should they integrate into human society? Humans are nothing at all!
"You are a human being, and you are also a human being! You actually sacrificed your life for a foreign race!" the prince shouted, "Traitor of human beings, you will not end well—"
His struggle undoubtedly caused the atmosphere to drop sharply.
Alicia didn't expect the cowardly prince to have such courage, she looked at him coldly and smiled, "If I don't end well, there is another lady who will be condemned before me, right? cherry?"
Her eyes fell on Wen Ying, and the eyes of the others followed her and looked at Wen Ying.
"He's right." Wen Ying didn't flinch, and said with a calm smile as she did every time she attacked her weakness before, "Alicia, you won't end well, let Osmond and Oswald do it Love agent, have you figured out your way out? Or, are you sure that someone will back you up?"
Her words were caught off guard, beyond the expectations of all those who knew. She clarified the matter nakedly, causing their complexions to change suddenly, including Duke William and the people in the elders' house.
"A love potion?"
The vampires whispered suddenly, and someone directly asked the two brothers, "Have you taken the love potion?"
"Of course not." Osmond denied with a smile, "We think that Alicia handled this well, so we handed over the matter to her. It has nothing to do with our selfishness." He glanced at the smell from the corner of his eye. cherry.
Alicia turned her head to look at Osmond and Oswald, and was relieved when she found that their expressions had not changed.
She thought the confounding ingredients in the love potion were at work. Many people don't understand the ingredients and effects of drugs that can only be obtained through special channels, such as the love potion, and those who don't know that they have been drugged cannot really know the truth.
The reason why she used the love potion to deal with them was because she had nowhere to go. At the same time, she also deeply realized the difference in Wen Ying's identity, and ordinary methods could not deal with her, so she made up her mind . Of course she knew that this move was risky, but Wen Ying succeeded. She thought she was better than Wen Ying and more suitable to be with them than her—after she took off her brave and innocent mask.
Thanks to Wen Ying for letting her know another way to achieve her goal.
She smiled, hitting back at the other party as she had imagined, instead of being silenced by the other party.
"I'm asking you that question, Sakura, you are the one who gave the love potion, not me." She turned to the vampires and said, "Everyone, I voluntarily became a vampire, but some of us were forced to become vampires." She gave Oswald and Osmond a love potion, forcing them to be jealous of her, and to serve mankind as the lord of blood. She once slapped Osmond, but Osmond showed no sign of anger , still willing to protect her, what is it if it’s not a love potion? I think many people are still deeply impressed by this.”
Some of the people present nodded repeatedly, and that scene was naturally very unforgettable.
"Hand her over to the Elder's House for judgment!"
The shouts from the crowd made Alicia smile sincerely: "I have submitted this matter to the elders' house long ago, and the verdict has been handed down. Since she despises vampires, let her leave the darkness and expose her to the sun! "
As soon as the word "sunshine" came out, all the vampires were stunned, and the severe criminal law that had rarely appeared made people frown.
"That's not right, we shouldn't be killing our own kind—"
There are objections.
"What is the concept of the same race?" Alicia immediately asked, "A person who still believes that she is a human being can also be regarded as the same race? After she became a vampire, she refused to give up her way of life as a human. She still hates vampires." , How can you guarantee that she will not collude with humans and cause harm to us? You know, the wife of Prince Setet was deceived by vampire hunters and revealed her identity before she was finally killed!"
Immediately after the mobilizing dialogue, she turned to ask Oswald's opinion, "Oswald, what do you think?"
Oswald glanced in the direction of Wenying indifferently, and said, "I agree."
"I think, even if it's the love potion, maybe you still have feelings for her..." Alicia asked tentatively.
He was unmoved, and only said: "As long as you are happy."
She was completely relieved, and gave the people in the elders' house a wink, and immediately the executor came to arrest Wen Ying.
Alicia's heart trembled slightly, and she couldn't wait to witness Wen Ying's death. After realizing each other's identity, the two brothers were already moved by each other. She deeply realized that only when Wen Ying dies can she get a new opportunity.
"Don't touch her!"
Suddenly there was a warning voice in the hall. Freno lowered his eyes and watched the person who wanted to catch Wen Ying. The moment the opponent made a move, he drove the opponent back with lightning speed. After several consecutive rounds of confrontation, the law enforcement team failed to get a little advantage.
His sudden burst of combat power surprised everyone. It is well known that this clan has always been proficient in stealing and illusion, and is far inferior to other clans in combat. But Freno is like an exception, which makes people look at it with admiration.
Wen Ying was hiding behind Freno. During the resistance, she noticed one thing: just now, Oswald's toes unconsciously took a step forward.
Looking up again, the other party's expression remained unchanged, looking at her coldly.
After the thought flashed through her mind, she pulled off Freno's sleeve and said, "I'll be fine, don't argue with them."
