Chapter 32: Blood Clan Ancient Text (Bloodstains) 08 Percy, open your mouth...
When Song Qingqing saw Percy's blood-red eyes, the first thing that came to her mind was the eyes she saw when she died for the second time.
But in fact, if you compare them carefully, you will find the difference between the two.
The blood-red eyes she saw before she died were not at all like those of a human. They were devoid of warmth, but rather had the coldness and indifference of a wild animal looking at its food.
But Percy's eyes were different.
The vampire butler with silver hair and red eyes, perhaps because he had stood outside the castle for too long at night, his long silver hair was stained with night dew and a little wet, which made his red eyes look like gems, making his already gentle temperament even more harmless.
It can be said that almost no one would feel wary when seeing Percy.
Song Qingqing's hand was still in the other's hand wearing a white silk glove, and she was looking down at him condescendingly. Percy did not feel offended because he could feel that the gaze of the girl in front of him seemed to be just pure curiosity.
But whether before he became an adult or after he became an adult and was forced to be involved in the power struggle within the Geshier family and lost, Percy had very few contacts with human women, let alone vampire girls. So he was inevitably nervous when he was stared at by the girl with such an undisguised gaze.
The vampire's snow-white eyelashes suddenly trembled.
After Percy called out to him again in confusion, Song Qingqing finally spoke. She smiled softly and said softly, "Percy, your hair is a little wet."
Percy was stunned for a moment, and met her crystal clear purple eyes with some surprise and confusion, but this instinctive behavior was quickly stopped. As a butler, it was very rude to look directly into the eyes of a guest, so he lowered his eyes again, but his hands and feet were a little stiff.
As the second son of the Geshier family, his manners and etiquette had always been impeccable. However, considering the current situation, it seemed inappropriate to receive distinguished guests with his silver hair dripping with moisture...
Song Qingqing borrowed Percy's hand and lightly got off the carriage. She handed him a snow-white handkerchief and said, "You must have been waiting for a long time. If you don't mind, you can wipe it."
Percy took the handkerchief she offered him silently and muttered a thank you.
He said, "Miss Sif, please come with me to see His Royal Highness Prince Hades."
The light inside the castle was dim and gloomy. There were candles on both sides of the corridor, but the weak light was not enough to compare with the light in the daytime, so the darkness seemed to swallow people up.
Song Qingqing followed Percy through the corridor, came to the hall of the castle, and then walked into another corridor.
When passing by the hall, Song Qingqing couldn't help but look up. There was a gorgeous crystal chandelier hanging on the ceiling of the hall, and a dark red carpet was covered on the marble floor. In the light of the crystal chandelier, she could see pale and silent servants like dead people packing up things around her.
There were also servants who were responsible for extinguishing candle flames with silver candle extinguishers.
As they extinguished the candles, the light in the hall gradually dimmed.
Song Qingqing guessed that it might be because it was approaching dawn, and daytime was the time for vampires to rest.
Percy and Song Qingqing stopped in front of a heavy door.
Song Qingqing looked up. The door was heavy and gorgeous, with many intricate and elegant patterns carved on it.
Percy bent down and opened the study door for the girl: "Miss, please come in."
After Song Qingqing entered the room, she met the legendary pure-blood prince, Hades Gesir. When she saw him, he was standing in front of the study window reading a letter.
Song Qingqing was a little surprised when she met Hades, her nominal father.
Because he has long black hair that is completely different from the twins Karan and Anks. It almost blends into the night behind him. Perhaps it is illuminated by the moonlight, with a hazy silver glow.
The figure standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window was tall and thin, with deep features and a letter in his slender fingers.
Hades glanced at the letter from the Lehman family with an indifferent expression and read the content. The gist of it was that he was very satisfied with the engagement with the Geshil family and was also very satisfied with his fiancée.
After hearing the sound of the door opening, Hades turned around and his cold eyes fell on the girl in front of him.
When Song Qingqing bumped into those dark red eyes that were almost black, her whole body stiffened and the fingers that were pinching the hem of her skirt clenched unconsciously. She subconsciously wanted to leave here.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she actually saw a hint of melancholy in the eyes of the older and more mature pureblood.
It was the melancholy brought on by the long and lonely years.
Song Qingqing almost suppressed her nervousness and uneasiness, lowered her head, lifted her skirt and saluted.
"Good day, Lord Hades."
When the girl bowed her head, her fair neck with a silver necklace was revealed, and the hem of her skirt was like a blooming rose, pure and flawless.
Just like her mother, the white rose in the tower who betrayed him.
Hades's calm gaze did not move away, but she recalled her mother, but unexpectedly found that it was very vague.
Because the life of the vampires is long and dark, many things that are not deeply impressed cannot be remembered, but Hades vaguely remembers the reason why she locked up her mother.
Perhaps it is due to the vampires' psychological tendency towards beautiful, pure white things, just like dragons always like to collect beautiful jewels.
Does he love this white rose? The answer is of course no.
To be precise, Hades knew clearly that he had never fallen in love with anyone or anything. Even the twin heirs were just a spur-of-the-moment product when he was cleansing a city-state and remembered that the group of vampire elders said he needed an heir.
Hades had no interest in the pure-blooded ladies of the vampire clan. He thought the two shivering children with blonde hair and blue eyes hiding in the corner looked pretty good, so without thinking, he transformed them into vampires, became their father, and gave them new identities.
Hades, sitting on the blood-stained seat of the city-state lord, picked up a ruby dagger from the blood-soaked carpet, cut his palm and stretched out his hand, calmly watching the two vampire children who had just completed the transformation rush over after smelling the blood of the pure-blood, greedily absorbing the blood of this powerful pure-blood.
The twins really lived up to his expectations. They grew up very quickly and were excellent and perfect. After all, they were descendants of the deceased city-state lord.
When Hades learned of the betrayal of the white rose, he did not feel the anger he should have felt for being betrayed. He just felt a little offended, a sense of being out of control.
She should have told him in advance, Hades thought calmly in his heart. He was not an unreasonable and arrogant vampire.
Because Song Qingqing bowed her head, she could only see a pair of pale, slender hands, whose fingertips tapped regularly on the table through the letter.
"what your name?"
The other person's voice was deep and mellow, like the fragrant black tea poured from a teapot, without losing its courtesy and demeanor.
Because of these words, Hades looked at the uneasy and fragile girl who raised her head and looked at him blankly with her beautiful violet eyes. She also had the same black hair as himself.
Hades praised sincerely in his heart, very beautiful eyes, but a little uneasy, like a young deer that accidentally broke into the hunting ground and faced the hunter's black gun muzzle in horror.
"Sif Nott, my lord."
Song Qingqing answered his question softly, looked away and no longer looked at him.
She didn't know how the original owner faced Hades in the original plot, but judging from the fact that she was able to arrogantly bully Ryan in the name of the Gesher family, Hades should have indulged her.
Hades said calmly, "You will live here from now on, and Percy will be responsible for taking care of you."
What the Lehman family needs is a pure-blood bride, and he will personally perform her first embrace ceremony. Apart from that, he does not need to have any interaction with this child.
Hades calmly informed the girl of the existence of the vampires, speaking in a tone that was almost descriptive, ignoring the instantaneous pallor she turned upon hearing the news for the first time. Song Qingqing cooperated, feigning fear and panic before fainting and being carried back to her room by Percy.
Apart from this meeting, Song Qingqing never saw the mysterious head of the Geshil family again, and she didn't know what Hades was doing. But she also discovered that Hades almost didn't care about the twins in the castle, and didn't fulfill his fatherly duties.
However, Song Qingqing discovered that she had never met the two brothers Karan and Anks.
This mission is neither difficult nor easy. All she needs to do is act as a blood bag for the twins, and change Ryan's fate and ending.
Judging from the plot timeline, she will die before Ruiyin, so how to ensure that Ruiyin will not die is a very important question. Perhaps, as long as Ruiyin does not encounter the twins, it will be enough?
And it was obvious that she needed to gain Percy's favor, otherwise she wouldn't be able to use him to complete the plot point of the failed escape.
But she, the blood bag, has not yet entered the blood bag plot line.
When Song Qingqing thought of this, she couldn't help feeling a little irritated and uneasy, especially in such an empty and gloomy environment like the manor castle, where one's mood would only get worse.
Percy treated her very gently, but it was this gentle treatment with a clear sense of distance that made Song Qingqing very clear that the other party was just fulfilling his duty to take care of her and the boundaries were clear.
This level is not enough for him to help himself.
She was now in the rose garden of the manor. The sun was shining brightly today. Song Qingqing squatted down and looked carefully at the red velvet roses blooming in front of her, while her eyes were secretly observing Percy who was waiting for her not far away.
She reached out her hand, and before Percy could react and pick the rose for her, she accidentally scratched her palm and fingers with the thorns on the rose stem.
The sweet aroma of blood quickly spread, lingering around and stimulating Percy's sense of smell and nerves.
Percy reacted quickly and took a step forward, "Miss Sif."
Song Qingqing was frightened by his call and stood up, but perhaps because she stood up too quickly, her vision blurred and she was about to fall forward. As she expected, she did not fall into the rose bushes, but fell into Percy's arms with a refreshing smell.
The weak and harmless girl buried herself in the gentle and quiet butler's arms, raised her head slightly, her long eyelashes had a translucent texture in the sunlight, she raised her eyes and finally saw Percy's Adam's apple that rolled inadvertently.
Song Qingqing looked up at the vampire butler, whose long silver hair was neatly tied up. Her soft breath brushed against his tense jaw as she spoke, her tone full of curiosity: "Percy, are you also a vampire?"
Percy's arms around her froze. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to force himself to break free from the thirst for blood and calm down, but the girl pounced on him and he fell to the green grass.
She sat on his long legs wrapped in the butler's uniform trousers, looking at herself with curiosity in her eyes.
"Percy open your mouth."
Percy followed her instructions, looking deeply into the girl's amethyst-clear eyes, and then slowly opened his mouth.
Song Qingqing saw the fangs that emerged from his mouth instinctively, pale and cold, flashing with cold light. She seemed a little scared, but she couldn't help but reach out and touch it curiously with her fingertips, while Percy let her observe and explore him.
Finally, before the situation got out of control, Percy raised his hand and grasped her slender wrist, his gentle and clear voice becoming hoarse and low.
"Ms. Sif, please don't do this. You'll get hurt."
He warned her in a low voice: "In this castle, everyone is a vampire."
Then, Percy lowered his head, and his scattered silver hair, with a slightly cool temperature, swept across Song Qingqing's arm. He carefully and cherishingly licked all the blood off her hand.
This was the only time Percy lost control during this period of time, and then he returned to his polite and gentle attitude with a sense of distance. Song Qingqing was very bored staying in the castle, so in her spare time she tried every possible way to change Percy's gentle smiling face.
Needless to say, the blood trick to make Percy lose control didn't work...
Song Qingqing looked down at the dinner knife that Percy had taken from her hand and fell silent. This was her fifth failed attempt to be accidentally cut by a dinner knife while eating.
Percy said to her very gently, "Miss Sif, I'll do it."
Then he patiently cut the steak for her, making each piece even.
It's just like a gentle elder treating a naughty and disobedient child...it makes people feel powerless.
Fortunately, this peaceful situation was broken. On this day, Percy took Song Qingqing to Kalan's room. He stopped in front of the door, and Song Qingqing looked at him with a hint of help.
Percy quietly met the girl's uneasy and frightened gaze, and then looked at her fingers pulling at his sleeve, pinching them carefully, like a lost child who had encountered an elf guiding the way.
Percy heard her say, "Percy, must I go?"
The soft and trembling voice sounded like a restless bird on a branch, so pitiful.
Percy looked away and silently pressed the jewel-inlaid brass doorknob with his white-gloved hand. The door opened and an elegant and gentle voice came from inside.
"Come in."
The answer was already obvious. Song Qingqing obediently loosened Percy's sleeve, lowered her head and walked in step by step. She did not look back at Percy, leaving only a slender back.
Percy's eyes fell on the slowly closing door. The carvings on it were about sin and punishment, and a girl abducted by a devil.
