Thinking of this old woman, who inherited Dracula's fearlessness of sunlight, made Dracula's teeth ache with even more hatred. Even his beloved Anna hadn't inherited this trait; even now, with her mutation, Anna still feared sunlight.
However, Dracula is not afraid of sunlight. Like other vampires, he dislikes sunlight and, like all vampires, is nocturnal.
At this time, Nian should be reading in her library. Even with good night vision, it's still more convenient to read with the lights on, which is why the lights in this castle used to stay on all night.
In the pitch black... Dracula recalled the two times he had been forced to take off his clothes. Could it be that Nian had secretly set up some ambush, just waiting for him to walk into it so that he could be humiliated again?
In the past two days, Dracula's dignity as a king has been severely challenged. He has never been so humiliated since he mutated into the first generation of vampires hundreds of years ago.
This forced him to be cautious and conduct a thorough investigation, only to find that there were no ambushes in the entire castle or even the entire manor. But the more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became. After thinking for a long time, Dracula decided to temporarily withdraw.
He didn't want to stand in the cold wind at the entrance of someone else's manor, so he used his blood energy to set up a monitoring barrier around the entire manor and in the sky. This barrier could report back to him who came and went, what the people inside the manor were doing, and any special energy fluctuations.
After setting up this barrier, Dracula was confident that he could find the flaw in the idea and return to his peak of tormenting others, so he left quite smugly.
Chu Nian sat on the large bed in the room, eating a special fruit that he had picked at dawn on Mount Alchino. He used his mental power to explore the outside world and discovered that Dracula had set up a barrier around his manor before leaving. He couldn't help but chuckle.
She and Dracula are destined to clash; it's only a matter of time.
The fruit she is eating now is recorded in the ancient books in the Chamber of Thought as called the Furnace Fruit. It is shaped like tender bamboo shoots, is blood red in color, grows on the northern slope of Mount Alsino, and ripens only at dawn. Once ripe, it is edible for vampires and is a fruit that is beneficial to enhancing the vampire's body.
There are many foods that vampires can eat on Mount Alsino, but because they are only recorded in ancient books in the Chamber of Thought, and because vampires have been feeding on blood since Dracula's time, and human food would cause them diarrhea, they rarely touch any food other than blood. Therefore, these foods suitable for vampires do not seem to have been widely adopted among vampires.
Moreover, the Frost Fruit only ripens at dawn, and vampires can only eat it after it is ripe. Because vampires fear sunlight, their timing for eating it is completely different, which means that vampires seem to be unaware of the existence of this fruit to this day.
This benefited Chu Nian. This morning, she not only picked a lot of fruit, but also transplanted some of the roasted fruit from Mount Alsino into her own Soul Ruins.
This fruit is edible and can also make vampires stronger. Chu Nian didn't want Dracula to know, since Dracula, like her, was not afraid of sunlight. So how could Chu Nian let Dracula use the barrier to monitor her?
To prevent Dracula from discovering that her blood could become stronger, she didn't intend to destroy the barrier. However, she used her mental power to modify it, making the feedback Dracula received chaotic. Moreover, Chu Nian could use the barrier to defend against attackers.
At this very moment, at Anna Manor.
Anna was annoyed by Dracula's repeated delusions over the past two days, and her temper became rather bad.
The servant brought her a drink of blood, but she accidentally spilled it when she reached for it. Enraged, she slapped the servant. The servant, terrified, immediately knelt down on one knee and begged for her forgiveness.
Sofia couldn't help but ask, "Anna, what's wrong with you? It's nothing, why are you hitting people?" Anna used to be very gentle, lovely, and very sensible.
Anna realized she had lost her composure, but she was used to the princess's haughty demeanor. She glared at the servant and said coldly, "Get out!"
The servant quickly left.
Sophia sat down next to Anna and said, "You're not upset about Dracula, are you?"
Anna remained silent, but her face looked extremely pale.
Sofia added, "You're not still in love with him, are you?"
Anna: "How could that be? He's two-timing me, and he's doing this... this inappropriate relationship with Nian is tantamount to humiliating me. I will never... I will never forgive him!"
Sofia frowned at her, sensing that Anna was clearly angry out of jealousy. If that meant Anna might still genuinely love Dracula, then how could she possibly harbor murderous intent towards him?
Thinking about this, Sofia felt a pang of pain in her heart: she felt deceived.
Because Anna told her that she had been deceived by Dracula and that she would one day kill Dracula to avenge her heartbreak, she enthusiastically helped Anna, helping Anna break through her mutation and greatly increase her strength. She thought that after Anna's mutation, the two of them would be able to fight Dracula together, and then she would have a chance to avenge her father's death. That's why she formed an alliance with Anna regardless of everything.
It's important to understand that because of the conflict between the wizarding and vampire clans, an alliance between them requires a pact. Once the pact is established, the wizard and the vampire cannot be too far apart, which is why she and Anna returned to the vampire territory.
Moreover, once the contract is signed, if either the vampire or the wizard faces mortal danger, the other will also be in danger. This way, the wizard and the vampire can fight to save each other and will not easily abandon one another.
Of course, once this contract is established, if the two parties join forces to fight, their combat power will also be enhanced by the power of the contract. Otherwise, why would Sophia have entered into this contract?
However, if Anna doesn't want to kill Dracula at all, meaning she probably won't join forces with Sofia to challenge Dracula, then what's the point of this contract?
“Anna, you’ve seen what kind of person Dracula is,” Sophia said coldly. She had already arrived in the vampire territory and didn’t want to give up so easily, so she decided to continue persuading Anna.
Anna remained silent about what she said.
Sophia: "Our ancestors prophesied that a vampire queen would be born during this time. Anna, kill Dracula, and you will be the vampire queen."
Anna turned to look at her and said, "I know you've told me this more than once. Don't worry, I will never let him get away with toying with my feelings like this."
