In a wide area twenty kilometers away from the dense forest, where there are no tall trees and no human habitation, there is only a sun coffin.

By this time, dawn had broken and the sun was slowly rising.

Inside the coffin, besides the male college student, there was another person who looked at Ahri.

Ahri felt a tremor in her heart; it was the vampire who had bitten the original owner to death.

The vampire was initially puzzled as to why he had suddenly been thrown into this place by a vampire.

Now, seeing Ahri and noticing Roy protecting her, he understood. The person he had bitten had become a vampire and found a powerful backer. No wonder someone had thrown him into this coffin.

At that moment, the male college student transformed into a vampire. He lost his mind and walked towards the vampire.

The vampire reached out and grabbed the male college student by the neck, stopping him and snapping his neck.

When the sunlight streamed in, the vampire dragged the still-living male college student along to greet the arrival of the sunlight.

This vampire felt no fear, but rather a sense of relief. He wasn't a vampire at first; he was a human who was sacrificed to a prince of the vampire clan.

However, since the prince didn't need him as a sacrifice, he was bitten by the vampire elders.

Now, he looks at the rising sun. He loves running in the sunlight and the feeling of the sun on his body.

However, after becoming a vampire, wanting to be exposed to sunlight is either a pipe dream or a death wish.

He had considered freeing himself before, but he... was afraid.

It's fine as it is now.

The sunlight shone on them, and black ash appeared on their bodies. Rings of fire, like lava, appeared on their faces and bodies, gradually spreading across them.

Even though the male college student's neck was broken, he still screamed in pain, while the vampire remained calm, as if he felt no pain.

The sun rose higher and higher, its rays growing stronger. The agonizing roars ceased, and a layer of ash appeared inside the sun coffin. Apart from that, it was empty.

Just then, Ahri twitched her nose and looked at Roy, who was protecting her with his large wings. "Can you smell roasted meat?"

Sweat rolled down Roy's forehead as he lowered his eyes and asked, "Do you still want to see?"

Ahri approached Roy and smelled the aroma of the roasted meat coming from him.

Even though Roy is a prince and can walk in the sunlight, he cannot be exposed to the sun for long.

"I'm not going to look anymore. Where is there water or the sea nearby?"

Ahri tried to reach out and touch Roy's back, but Roy held Ahri's hand tightly. "Don't reach out, you'll get hurt."

"Then take me away from here quickly, I need to see the injury on your back."

"It's nothing, just a minor injury."

Roy picked up Ahri and left.

Ahri said with great remorse, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come to see."

"Fool, I wanted to bring you here myself."

Roy grabbed Ahri and plunged into a pool, diving directly to the deepest part.

Ahri held her breath and made Roy turn around.

Roy had many burns on his back, and there were also many flickering flames.

Now that he's out of the sunlight and without its rays, Roy's wounds are gradually healing.

Ahri hugged Roy tenderly and gently kissed the healed spot on his back. "I'm sorry, it was my fault for not thinking things through and causing you to get hurt."

Roy straightened up, turned around, hugged Ahri, and kissed her. "It's okay, it's not your fault. I overestimated myself."

The two looked at each other underwater, kissed, and exchanged breaths. Their previously slow heartbeats began to beat faster.

The water rippled, with concentric circles spreading outwards.

I don't know how much time passed, but it got dark.

Roy carried Ahri out of the lake. Ahri's lips were swollen and red, and she looked like a flower that had been pampered.

Outside the ancient castle deep in the forest, Jesse and Kyle stood together.

Jesse fiddled with the lighter in his hand, while Kyle didn't want to be there at all. The smell made him feel nauseous. He said to Jesse, "I knew I shouldn't have come. This is such a hassle."

Jesse looked up at the dark figures flying in from afar. "They're back."

Roy landed with Ahri in his arms and looked at Jesse. "What happened?"

Jesse quickly said, "It's not safe here anymore. The paladins and werewolves are coming to attack."

Roy wasn't in a hurry at all. "Then let them come."

Anyway, there was no one in the castle, and his collection of many years had long been moved elsewhere.

Roy thought about his collection over the years, then looked down at Ahri and asked, "Do you like gemstones?"

Ahri just wanted to get some sleep. She squinted and thought about what the gem looked like. She leaned closer to Roy sleepily and whispered, "I like it."

Seeing Ahri's current languid state and the intimate way the two were, Jesse thought, "Forget it, let's just assume that this person really couldn't hold his liquor and drank too much that day."

At this moment, Roy looked at Jesse, then beckoned to the butler and said to him, "Be careful these next few days. Go out and lay low for a while, and come back when things have calmed down."

The butler nodded, then transformed into a bat and flew away.

Kyle rolled his eyes. "Are you really a prince? You only have one butler by your side, and he's a bat?"

Roy looked at Kyle, "Aren't there still the two of you?"

"We are not your subordinates!"

Kyle finished speaking awkwardly and then turned and left.
