His platinum blonde hair curled softly, framing his face and creating a rounded shape. The little boy had delicate features, with long, slightly curled eyelashes that drooped and trembled gently, revealing a hint of unease.

In fact, he was quite agitated.

"Il, what's going on with this body?"

"Hehe... Host... So cute..."

"Il!"

"!"

"Ahem, host, I'm here!"

The system nervously stopped taking pictures, and the suddenly louder sound seemed to be trying to cover something up.

It recalled Willy's question and laughed it off.

"Because the situation was so sudden, I hastily chose a world and traveled here... so the timing doesn't seem to be right..."

"A little bit... early..."

It tried its best to slow down its speech, and its voice became softer and softer.

"A little bit?"

Vili narrowed his eyes.

"Well... there's still... about one, two, three... days until the protagonist is born..."

"Four, five, six..."

"More than ten years..."

"………………"

"Young Master Vili, is the journey to the main mansion of the castle too long and tiring for you?"

The butler's deep voice suddenly broke the silence, interrupting Willy's internal conversation with the system. He looked up and saw the old man's serious face soften as he made a forced smile.

The servants around him cast horrified glances, but when they looked at Vili, their expressions changed to understanding, even a hint of envy.

"..."

"If you wish, I would be happy to lend a helping hand and lighten your burden."

Seeing that Willy hesitated and did not speak, Deville politely added.

Even before her face had fully developed, her future potential was already evident. Her cheeks still had a touch of baby fat, and her soft skin looked like it would leave a small dent if you poked it.

He looked more like an angel painted on the walls of the courtroom than a vampire.

The butler clenched his fist, coughed lightly twice, covering his mouth, but could not hide the affection in his eyes.

The future little master... is so cute...

What do you think?

He stopped and stared intently at Vili.

...Why does he seem even more excited than I am?

Willy muttered to himself, but honestly opened his arms and was held firmly in the butler's arms, his head resting obediently on his shoulder.

He wasn't in great physical condition to begin with, and children get tired easily... making this choice is perfectly reasonable!

The system says: The host is right!

At the same time, there was a series of clicking sounds of camera shutters.

About eight minutes later, at the bedroom door, the butler finally put the boy down from his arms, his movements showing some reluctance.

He straightened his bow tie with feigned elegance and gave a bow to Vili.

“Young Master Vili, this is your room.”

Vili followed his gesture and looked into the doorway, but before he could see clearly, his view was blocked by the other man, and he made eye contact with him.

"From this day forward, you will be the only young master of the Thun family and the heir of His Highness Zephyr."

The butler knelt on one knee, his voice possessing an irresistible allure, and entered Vili's ears.

And deep within those red eyes, countless ancient secrets seemed to be hidden, gradually rotating like a kaleidoscope, opening the door to darkness, making it impossible to look away.

"..."

Willy's eyes lost focus and became slightly unfocused.

“…Il, I have a question.”

Is he hypnotizing me?

With a blank expression on his face, Willy's confusion seemed to manifest as a large question mark above his head.

...To hypnotize a great magician with magic?

For a moment, I don't know if the problem is with you or with me.

"Uh..." the system said cautiously, "Host, this seems to be the original plot."

"The original owner was one of the last remaining descendants of the pure-blood noble family of Hughes. In order to hide his identity and protect him, the only prince of the vampire clan, Zephyr Thun, decided to adopt him."

"Because the original owner was still young, on the one hand, there was concern that he would not be able to hide the secret of his identity, and on the other hand, there was a hope that he would temporarily forget the painful memories of the past. The prince decided to directly seal the memories in his mind related to the Hughes family."

"...He's actually a pretty nice person."

Willy was at a loss for words. Finally, under the butler's gaze, he suddenly closed his eyes and fell to the side, but was quickly caught by a thin figure rushing out from a corner and held tightly in his arms.

“...Vili.”

He lowered his head, his hair, the same color as the boy in his arms, falling down and swaying slightly with his movements. He looked like a teenager, his cheeks still rounded like a child's, yet his handsome features were already beginning to emerge.

His brows, usually so noble, were now furrowed, giving him an unexpectedly cold and aloof air. But when he looked at Vili, the icy coldness in his eyes suddenly melted, revealing a glimmer of light.

He reached out his icy hand and stroked Vili's face, but trembled violently when he felt a little warmth at his fingertips.

"Young Master Elijah."

Deville bowed to him, and although he should have scolded him for his rudeness, he couldn't help but soften his heart.

Elian Beverly arrived at the castle three days earlier. He was covered in blood and almost lifeless, but the moment he opened his eyes, he instinctively attacked the prince who was treating him—

The flames of revenge burned in his bloodshot eyes, incinerating everything in sight, including himself.

Zephyr did not blame him, but later rejected his application to participate in the vampire alliance's counterattack against the Inquisition.
