Chapter 38 Lafien Cried
"So… what do you mean… I'm a half-vampire?"
In a cramped carriage compartment, Charlotte wore a small red dress, her head resting on Lathel's lap, as she slept soundly.
Lathel stroked her hair while talking to Cauldron with his mind.
"That's right." Cauldron replied: "You were bitten by her, you definitely became a half-vampire. From now on, you must have her blood sucked in order to continue living."
"So that's it, only by having her suck my blood can I continue to live… wait, you said…"
"Um. I said, for a while, she must continue to bite you and suck your blood, so you can continue to live."
Lathel heard that and was a little confused: "Are you mistaken?" Don't I need to suck blood?
"Why do you have to suck blood?" Cauldron asked in confusion.
Lathel: "…"
Cauldron: "…"
"Oy! Do you really understand Vampires? I was the one who was bitten, I became a Half-Vampire, which means I have to suck the blood of others to survive, right?"
"You're the one who doesn't understand Vampires well. You are a normal person, you can eat and drink to maintain your life energy, you can also absorb magical energy in nature to level up. So… why would you need to suck other people's blood?"
"Besides, you don't have the ability to suck someone else's blood." Cauldron explained, his words were so certain that Lathel also began to doubt what he knew.
Lathel scratched his head, he felt extremely confused because what Cauldron said was completely different from what he had known through his knowledge on Earth.
He continued to ask: "So... I really don't need to suck other people's blood, right?"
"That's right."
"What about her?" Lathel looked in the opposite direction, there, a girl about 165cm tall was sitting and sobbing, tears continuously flowing.
She wore a long white dress, a brown shirt was worn over it, she also had shoulder-length hair, and skin that was as white as snow.
That's right, it was Lafien.
Lathel sighed, in fact, everything happened too suddenly.
He remembered that when Lafien appeared, he felt that it was difficult to avoid death.
He even thought about resisting and letting Charlotte escape. But in the end Charlotte was so fast that he couldn't see her.
She bit Lafien's neck, then…
Then the outcome was already decided.
Lafien's wounds also recovered, and like him, she became a Half-Vampire, while Charlotte fell into a deep sleep.
But Lafien couldn't attack him after that, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't harm him.
It was like there was an invisible hand stopping her every time she wanted to attack Lathel.
According to Cauldron's explanation, royal Vampires or pure-blooded Vampires have the ability to assign ranks to their subordinates.
The person who is bitten first will be the superior of the person who is bitten later.
In other words, at this moment , Lathel could be considered Lafien's master. Of course, he cannot order Lafien but Lafien cannot harm him either.
Cauldron explained: "Her? Ah! She has two options, let Charlotte suck her blood or you can suck her blood too."
"After all, you are considered her master. Although you cannot command her, she cannot harm you."
"Even if Charlotte isn't here, you have to suck her blood to keep her alive."
Hearing that, Lathel used two fingers to rub his temples because he felt a bit of a headache.
So… that means that being bitten by a Vampire means injecting a poison into the body and the antidote also lies in being bitten by a Vampire.
If Charlotte doesn't continue to suck his blood, the poison will work and he will...
"What are you worried about?" Cauldron spoke again: "As the first person Charlotte sucked blood from, you seem to possess all the advantages of the Vampire race, so why do you still show that bored face for everyone to see?"
"Are you afraid that people won't know you have that honor?"
"Heh?! What do you mean..." Lathel asked again in confusion: "Besides, what honor? Are you teasing me?"
Cauldron sighed: "Do you think I have enough free time to tease you?"
"Sign, you guys really lack knowledge. In my time, being chosen by a royal or pure-blooded vampire as the first person to suck blood is an honor."
"When blood is sucked, that person will become a Half-Vampire, that person will also possess powers such as incredible recovery speed, increased physical strength without any other harmful effects. "
"Ah! In fact, there is still some harm in that you have to let Charlotte continue to suck your blood, and you have to be loyal to her."
"It means…" Lathel stammered: "My fate and hers have been entwined."
"That's right. Without you, she will die, without her, you will die too."
"Heh?! Can't she suck other people's blood?"
"You underestimate the meaning of being the first to have your blood sucked." Cauldron said contemptuously, as if he was looking down on Lathel for not having too much knowledge.
"In an era when I was still worshiped by many people, everyone called my name like a god…"
"Do you think I care?" Lathel said impatiently.
"Ah! Alright." Cauldron felt a bit embarrassed, once again he composed himself and said: "Hm… in that era, pureblood Vampires would choose one person to be the first person they would suck blood from."
"They will not randomly choose a code, they will choose someone they like, that person will be like a knight protecting and carrying out their orders."
"Also… lovers."
"Lover?" Lathel frowned.
"That's right. The strings of both of their fates are intertwined, and almost every couple became lovers."
"So what is our case?" Lathel asked confusedly.
"I don't know." Cauldron immediately replied: "But I feel…that Charlotte girl seems to really like you. She has been in that castle for a long time, you are the first person she has laughed and talked to so much."
"But… how do you know that I was the first person whose blood she sucked?" Lathel continued to ask.
"Because the first person has a very recognizable characteristic, which is that you are not controlled by Charlotte."
"What do you mean?"
Cauldron sighed, then said: "Tell Charlotte to try giving orders to you and to that girl, you will understand clearly."
Lathel felt confused, but he still wanted to try to see what privileges the first person would have.
"Char…Charlotte…" He bowed his head and said softly.
Charlotte was resting her head on his lap, and breathing evenly but she suddenly opened her eyes.
She used her small hand to rub her eyes and looked at him. Lathel was a little shy because Charlotte was so adorable, like a little angel, that he just wanted to hug her and squeeze her cheeks a little.
Lathel took a deep breath, tried to stabilize her emotions and said: "Charlotte, try giving me orders and... hm... that girl."
Charlotte looked at Lathel, then looked back at Lafien who was sitting and crying without paying attention to everything around her. Then, Charlotte looked at him again and said: "Lathel..."
Charlotte said as she reached out and placed her hands on his cheeks. At this moment, she smiled an extremely lovely and pure smile, like a sunflower.
"Love me…"
"Heh?!" As soon as she heard what Charlotte had just said, Lathel was extremely excited, his heart beat continuously like a war drum.
But right after that, he seemed to hear the sound "FBI, open the door." ringing in his ears.
Lathel shook his head, trying to eliminate the thoughts that had just appeared in his mind, then looked into Charlotte's eyes.
'It seems… her orders are ineffective against me.' Lathel thought to himself.
"So…" He continued: "Charlotte, can you try giving that girl an order, ask her to stop crying?"
Charlotte slowly turned her head to look at Lafien, then softly said: "Be quiet."
"Huhuhuhu… um… um…" Lafien's crying suddenly stopped, her mouth couldn't make any sound, and her tears stopped flowing.
Lathel was startled when she saw this scene.
"Understand, kid." Cauldron's voice rang out again: "In fact, the first person is the most free. Besides not being able to betray Charlotte and having to let her suck your blood, there are no other harmful effects."
"The 2nd, 3rd or 4th person…etc will be servants to Charlotte and you."
Hearing that, Lathel nodded, it seemed... becoming the first person to be sucked by a pureblood Vampire was truly an honor.
He looked towards Lafien, then patted Charlotte on the shoulder: "That's enough..."
Charlotte nodded, she lay her head on Lathel's lap and fell asleep.
Lathel looked towards Lafien, he felt a headache. He wanted to ignore her, but he was afraid that she would make information about him and Charlotte public, at which point, more enemies would come looking for him.
In the end, he had to take her with him. Luckily Charlotte can give her orders and she can't harm him or Charlotte.
Besides, she must have her blood sucked by Charlotte, so she can continue to survive.
But… bringing this girl along means a slow-burning bomb.
He felt a headache. In the end, his kindness was not in the right place.
Lathel sighed and said: "Okay, let me introduce myself a little, my name is Lathel. What is your name? From which organization?
"Huh!" Lafien frowned and snorted contemptuously: "Don't talk to me, you dirty monster. When you open your mouth, the atmosphere here is also polluted."
Lathel: ( ;  ̄ Д  ̄ )
"Good!" Lathel angrily said: "Then please get out of here."
"I…" Lafien suddenly became confused: "I.. I can't go back."
"Hm?! Why? If you feel that being with me is dirty, please leave. I don't want to be with an arrogant girl like you."
"You… dirty devil… you…"
"Enough!" Lathel shouted: "Don't think that because you are stronger than me, you can say whatever you like."
"You always say I'm dirty, so are you clean?"
"Do you promise that you won't do anything wrong in your whole life?"
"Do you promise that no one will hate you in this lifetime?"
"I am telling you, now, you are also a Half-Vampire, you are as dirty as me. You saying I'm dirty means you're scolding yourself for being dirty."
"Now, we are in the same boat, there is no turning back. Either work with me to solve the problem, or get out of my sight."
"Ah! Let me remind you that if you don't get blood from this girl, you will die soon. If you feel that you are too clean and not afraid of death, please go ahead."
Lathel signaled an invitation, no, it should be said that he officially chased Lafien away.
He was also prepared for a war of words, after all she couldn't harm him, that's why he wasn't afraid of her.
Lafien pursed her lips tightly, as she realised her situation, tears started flowing out of her body like a stream.
Lathel: "…" (  ̄  ̄ |||)
