Blood Dragon

"...In the fourth year of the new calendar, the Scarlet Duke Ashurfat defeated Ryan's army at the Purple Stone, dominating the entire Sylvania with absolute power and terror..."

"...Most of the vampires were killed in the siege of Kalean...But, for human beings, I don't know whether it's luck or misfortune. The most powerful warrior and mage in the vampire family, The queen's consort, the Scarlet Duke Ashurfat is not in Calian at this time...

"Many rumors say that the green-skinned boss who destroyed Oren is the one disguised by the Scarlet Duke... Legend has it that this vampire's unholy power is enough to kill mighty dragons, and his evil magic can destroy holy angels. If he If he was there at the time, with his terrifying strength, it is very possible to fight a bloody path and rescue Queen Qinxin. Maybe even turn the tide of the battle..."

"...Scarlet Duke Ashurfat, the last and strongest vampire. We can find a lot of stories about this vampire in legends, rumors and various wild histories of unknown origin. Each story has He is deliberately portraying his cruelty, evil, despicableness, deceitfulness, and cunning. However, looking through all the relevant records, there is one thing that even the church cannot deny-he is not only a powerful warrior who can defeat thousands of people , is also a magician who is good at magic, and is an excellent commander on the battlefield..."

——Excerpted from "On Vampires"

Fei walked along the corridor to the other side.Here, she prepared a not very big room for herself, but on the one hand, the door of this room is a bit hidden, and on the other hand, the location is quite special, it is the outermost floor of the room where guests live in the castle.In this room, you can clearly see the guests coming in and out-of course, there are not half of the guests in the castle now.In fact, all the people in the castle add up to only two.

A floating metal ball got out from nowhere, caught up from behind, and stopped in front of Fei.

"Miss Fei." A voice came from the metal ball.This is actually a very strange thing. So far, Fei has had the idea of ​​opening the metal ball several times to see what is talking.But on the other hand, reason told her, it was a kind of magic she didn't understand—she didn't understand any kind of magic.

"Carrie, what's the matter?" Fei replied coldly.

"Why don't you go to greet the master when he comes back?" asked Carrie.

"He is flirting with Leiya, why should I get involved?" Fei asked back. "Don't you think you're annoying enough?"

"That's not what you really think in your heart?" Carrie said. "This time, Miss Fei played a big role. If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid the situation would be a bit unimaginable."

"I just gave the vampire a little bit of my blood!" Fei didn't look moved.

"But at that time, if it weren't for your presence, things would have been dangerous," Carrie replied. "Speaking of which, the master brought something this time."

"something?"

"It's the proposal ring. Just now," Carrie said with a hint of mockery in her voice, but maybe it was just Fei's own imagination. "Master proposed to Miss Leia."

"Then what does it matter to me?" If Sai Fei's voice was cold before, now it simply turned into a stone in an iceberg.

"Well, although due to various customs and other issues, Leia can only be used as a concubine, but it seems that Leia has accepted it." Carrie continued, without taking into account the subtle changes in Fei's expression.

"This has nothing to do with me! A man proposing to a certain woman seems to have nothing to do with a third party!"

"But the master also intends to propose to you, Miss Fei."

"Am I as a backup? But I think it's redundant. Even as a side room, Leiya will definitely accept it!" Fei sneered. "She seems to know something already."

"Not 'backup', but he intends to propose to both of you at the same time."

"Hmph." Fei snorted coldly, ignored the metal ball in front of her, and walked straight to her room.As she approached the door, she suddenly changed her mind and went instead to the stairs.For some reason, her heart was in a mess, far worse than the calm expression on her face, and she wanted to blow some wind on the small platform at the top of the castle.Maybe that bird's-eye view of the world would calm her down.

But this time, something seemed different.Maybe it's getting hotter, the sun is a little bit hot, maybe it's not windy today.She stood for a few minutes, but she never calmed down, but became more disturbed.At this time, Fei heard footsteps at the entrance and exit of the platform.

Without looking back, she knew who the footsteps belonged to.There was no fourth person in the castle.

The footsteps stopped two or three steps behind her.Fei wanted to turn her head away, but in the end her self-esteem suppressed the impulse.

"What are you doing here if you're not with Leia?" she asked in a low voice.

"I'm here to find you." Behind him, Ashuruffat said.

"Are you looking for me?" Fei turned around, suddenly, a wave of anger rushed to her forehead for some reason. "You already..." She wanted to use this anger to say all the words in her heart, but before she could say it, her mouth was sealed.

This moment seemed as long as 1 years, and finally, when she even felt a little out of breath, Ashuruffat parted their lips and took half a step back.

Panting, she looked at the man opposite, but didn't speak.

"I know words are powerless at this time. My request is very selfish, maybe it's nothing at all... It's just my personal greed. But I have something to tell you."

The man opposite seemed very calm, but with her feminine intuition, she could clearly feel that the man was very excited at the moment.Under the fair skin, there seemed to be a burst of blush trying its best to rise to the surface.

"I have always kept some things in my heart. I have never looked into my heart seriously. Maybe I am too arrogant, maybe I am too cowardly, maybe I feel that my life is long and I can have enough time for it. I squander so that I can slowly recognize everything. So all along, I have never really faced my own heart."

"But this time, I felt fear for the first time. When death hovered above my head, I realized that I am not a 'master of death'. I am just a mortal thing, and I also have fear and despair. But Fortunately, I overcame my despair and turned my fear into a driving force. At that moment, I saw my heart clearly and understood what I really wanted. I knew that I was selfish, and it was worthless to be rejected by you Resentful. But I still want to say something to you."

He leaned close to her side, wrapped his arms around her waist, and held her in his arms.

"Can you marry me?" His voice whispered in Fei's ear, like a curse, lingering.The spell made her feel dizzy and ecstatic all of a sudden.She couldn't speak, and she couldn't do anything, she could only maintain her original posture and stare blankly at the other party.

"I have no witnesses, no priests of the church, no parents and elders. I can only say some pale oaths. But I still want to tell you, I want to give you happiness, I want to make you happy, I want to be your happiness."

She felt dizzy for a while.In her mind, countless images suddenly flashed.The mysterious man Ashurfate who appeared suddenly and knocked her down from his uniform; the Ashurfate who took her by the hand in the rainy night and led her all the way in a hurry; the one who suddenly appeared in the dungeon the Ashurfate in the cemetery; the Ashurfate who showed the true face of the vampire in the cemetery; the vampire who saved her and made her go away, the vampire who gave her strength and traded with her; The vampire who suddenly told her that she was free and that the transaction itself was a joke; the man who frankly admitted that he admired her; the man who kissed her for the first time; The man who drank blood and became lifeless... The images of these scenes were intertwined, and became the man in front of him who proposed to her.

She didn't know when she began to be attracted to each other, like a bug that fell into a spider's web.By the time you realize you're stuck, it's too late.

"Why...why did you say to make a deal with me?"

"Because you are such a proud girl, I am afraid that you will refuse my help."

……

There was a complete silence at the conference table.

"The committee has analyzed your proposal, Elan." Finally, someone spoke. "We think the proposal is...um...very innovative, but don't you think it's...too expensive?"

"The price is too high? Hahaha..." Yilan let out a burst of laughter. "For me, is there no big deal anymore?" Her eyes swept across the audience contemptuously. "I did it voluntarily. And the third type of artificial nerve has been used up? Even with the current progress, I can't wait for the relevant projects to go into production."

"And the timing you mentioned... I'm afraid it will take a long time. After all, in the short term, we can't do anything against Ash Rufat. The Ryans have already been defeated, and they want to mobilize a *team to attack Ash For Shurufat, I think it is very difficult and not feasible." Another person said.

"There is no need to use the power of these natives." Yilan replied. "Other specific actions can be authorized to me."

"Of course we will authorize you. In fact, you don't need authorization at all. This is your complete freedom."

"Very good!" The goddess stood up from the conference table and walked out. "Then I'll go first."

"Wait, the meeting's agenda isn't over yet!" someone yelled.

"It's over. If I need to vote, I will abstain." Yilan smiled sweetly, and then walked out of the room, disappearing quickly.

"Yilan, this is..."

"But what she said is too mysterious. Unless we find the right bait, it will be difficult to lure Ash Rufat out of Sylvania. Although her plan is very good, it does not have the prerequisites."

"Yilan told me before, she said she had a premonition..." It was a figure in a gray and white cloak who spoke. “That premise is coming to your door very quickly.”

"Why is she so sure? Or something happened?" asked another.

"I don't know, she said this is a woman's intuition." The gray-white cloak shrugged. "But let me say, this intuition is quite accurate."
