Because Yates wouldn't let her leave the castle.

He would find any ingredients that Mu Tiantian wanted for her.

From then on, their life in the castle began.

While Yades went out to find ingredients, Mu Tiantian cooked and fed herself in the castle.

He indulged her in almost everything except for not letting her leave the castle.

Buy her a TV, a game console, pretty clothes, cosmetics—buy her whatever she wants.

The antiques in the castle are enough for her to live on for several lifetimes.

She also taught him how to be a "human being," and guided him step by step on how to use modern technology.

During this time, Jon also frequently came to visit them.

Yades disliked Jon very much because he was always trying to get Mu Tiantian to escape from here.

If Mu Tiantian hadn't stopped them, the two of them would probably have been fighting every day, and it would have been a fight to the death.

When she had finally fully recovered, Yardes held her in his arms.

Savor the food he had raised for so long.

But for some reason, he experienced strange sensations when he drank her blood.

He recalled some scenes shown on television, and the urge within him made him realize that it was no longer just about sucking blood.

He mimicked the actions of the male and female leads in TV dramas, starting to kiss Mu Tiantian's neck, as if he had no prior knowledge, and then pinned her down...

Mu Tiantian reached out to stop him, asking in surprise, "What are you going to do?"

He imitated what he saw on TV, taking her hand and interlocking their fingers. "I see people doing this on TV."

Mu Tiantian: "...???"

What kind of TV show is he watching?

She quickly stopped her, "Do you know why those people on TV do that?"

Yades didn't understand.

"Do you know what 'like' means?" Mu Tiantian asked him. "Do you know what love is?"

He didn't understand any of what she was saying.

"You can only do this when you understand these things."

later.

Yades saw her using her own blood to make food for him.

At that moment, his heart pounded, and he seemed to understand what she meant by "like".

He could not taste any food other than blood.

So Mu Tiantian found a spell that used her own blood as one of the ingredients, so that she could taste the deliciousness of the food.

By the time Yardes finally realized his own feelings, he had fallen completely in love with her and trusted her wholeheartedly.

However, she plunged a silver awl, which he hated most, into his heart.

Her kindness towards him was merely a ploy to gain his trust and seize his ancestral power.

Just before he lost consciousness, he saw her fair and delicate hands placed on his chest.

The silver cone pierced her palm and plunged into his chest.

Her blood flowed into his heart.

As Yades recalled everything, he touched the wound on his chest. The scenes in his memory seemed as vivid as if they had happened yesterday, and the wound throbbed with pain.

He murmured, "Tian Tian..."

at the same time.

The scene before Mu Tiantian changed, and she found herself in an unfamiliar place.

The walls on all four sides were crystal-like, reflecting her face, like a maze of mirrors.

This is where she took the black crystal back then.

System: [Yades's hatred value is 90, decrease by 10, decrease by 10... Current hatred value is 10.]

Mu Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

fine...

Suddenly, someone grabbed her neck from behind, a large hand almost completely gripping her slender neck, and a familiar voice rang out, "You actually let that crystal shatter!"

"Don't speak to me in his voice," Mu Tiantian said coldly.

Grint hadn't yet dropped his disguise, and was still using Yates's voice, "What, can't you hear this?"

He walked from behind Mu Tiantian to in front of her, his hand never leaving her neck.

He had the same face as Yades, but this time Mu Tiantian could see the difference in his pupils and could also see his identity through the incantation.

It seems that the reason we couldn't see his true identity before was because of that crystal.

Mu Tiantian calmly looked at him and asked, "Grint, did you deliberately get close to me when you gave me the milk tea before?"

“Indeed.” He just wanted to confirm if she was the witch who had taken the crystal back then.

After confirming the relationship, he originally planned to slowly approach her, but he didn't expect that she would be with Yades.

As a result, Yades tricked him, and he got splashed with milk tea.

If he hadn't had to pretend, he really wanted to fight back.

“However, you actually know my identity.” Grint was slightly surprised and looked her up and down.

It seems she is indeed quite capable.

"It's just an identity, it's not difficult for me..." Mu Tiantian said, her lips moved slightly, and she launched a swift attack while chanting a spell.

Caught off guard, Grint was knocked back a few steps, his disguise disappearing, revealing his original black hair and those shrewd, sharp purple eyes.

He was even stronger than Jon.

When werewolves transform into human form, their bodies are much taller and stronger than those of ordinary humans.

Grint wasn't annoyed; instead, a smile played on his lips, as if he were amused. "You've got some skills."

Mu Tiantian rubbed her neck, her reflection shimmering on the crystal wall, revealing a few red marks on her fair neck.

She said calmly, "You knew that Rick and Winnie would take me to that abandoned building, so you set up a giant teleportation magic circle there early on. You stole the crystal, disguised yourself as Adez, and tried to bring me here so that I would give you the crystal."

The crystal contained unpredictable energy, which is why Grint was so obsessed with it.

But Crystal doesn't recognize him, and he has no choice but to keep guarding her.

Until one day, Mu Tiantian came here to snatch the crystal, and the crystal recognized her as its owner.

Grint wanted her to give him the crystal, saying that if the crystal's original owner gave it away, the owner would also change ownership.

But she used the power of the crystal to escape.

This infuriated him, and he kept looking for her, but to no avail.

Later, he accidentally discovered that Yardes had actually woken up from the coffin, still wearing the crystal.

He couldn't just rob it, for fear of alerting the enemy, so he hid on the campus where Yades was, waiting for the right opportunity.

At the same time, he wanted to complete his plan to transform all humans into other species.

He accidentally discovered that Winnie and Ricky wanted to kill Mu Tiantian, so he kept an eye on their movements.

They set a trap, and he set an even bigger one.

After Mu Tiantian left the school with the two of them, he followed them.

At the same time, he discovered that Yades was worried about following Mu Tiantian.

In order to seize the crystal, he summoned the vampires and werewolves he had cultivated over the years, trapped Yades, and then took advantage of his unpreparedness to steal the crystal.

He knew that the crystal, though taken away, would soon return to its owner.

Therefore, he disguised himself as Yades to rescue Mu Tiantian in order to take her away.

He thought she must have a way to give the crystal back to him.

When he arrived at the abandoned building, he overheard her asking Rick and the other woman who had transformed them.

Those who transformed them were, of course, the vampires he had trained.

However, she didn't need to know all that, so he helped her take care of the two of them.

He then controls the vampires to attack her, and then saves her, so she will definitely believe that he is Yades.

I never expected that she would find out.

“Actually, I didn’t originally plan to impersonate Ades, hoping you would be attacked by the vampires, then I would appear to save you and bring you here, using that to threaten Ades into giving me the crystal. But I met him on the way, so I changed my plan and impersonated him.” Grint asked, “How did you find out I wasn’t him?”
