Chapter 347 It’s time to hunt, my hounds
Under Haina's astonished gaze, Aiwas's temperament suddenly changed.
It seems that nothing has changed...his appearance, expression and hairstyle are exactly the same as before.
But that warm and peaceful feeling, as bright and warm as the sun, turned cold in an instant.
It was as if I was lying in the yard basking in the sun, and a dark cloud gradually drifted over, blocking the sunlight. And at that moment, I suddenly realized that the wind that had just brushed past my body was so cool, like clear water spraying on my body.
"Are you surprised?"
Aiwas looked at Haina, whose face was full of disbelief, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
He leaned back against the wall, his slightly narrowed eyes gleaming with a bright red light. Even in the dim warehouse at dusk, they still shone faintly, like rubies.
"Have you...become a vampire?"
Haina asked tremblingly, "Is it real? Is it really a vampire?"
"First of all, the correct term is Son of the Moon."
He smiled, showing off his sharp fangs.
Aiwass tapped his fangs lightly with a finger, then licked the tips of his teeth with his tongue, revealing a charming smile.
"——It's the real thing, do you want to try it?"
“I want to try it!”
Haena said without hesitation.
"……ha?"
Sherlock, who was about to laugh at Haina's joke, suddenly looked up and made an unbelievable sound.
"I've seen Dracula, too," Haina blushed a little, but still argued, "Everyone is talking about vampires, so of course I'm curious too! After all, there aren't any in Avalon.
"But the vampires out there are too dangerous. The book also says that vampires can bewitch other people's minds. Although I am still very confident in my will, I don't think it is necessary to actually find a vampire."
Just like Haina was invited by her roommates several times, but never planned to go to the bar in Lloyd's District.
It wasn't that she didn't have confidence in her self-defense skills and Taoist abilities—it was just that there was no need to take the risk.
Perhaps the seed of caution was planted in Haina's heart as early as her childhood when she lost the money in her pocket because of jumping around.
She could no longer jump, but she would never take the risk again.
"—But if it's Aiwass, there's no problem."
Haina changed the subject.
She looked at Aiwass curiously: "I heard that when a vampire sucks your blood, you will feel intoxicated... Is it true?"
"It's true."
Aiwas said with a smile, reached out and gently pulled Haina's ear, pulling her closer.
He lowered his head and looked at Haina, his scarlet pupils as if he was looking at food.
He lowered his head and sniffed Haena's neck, taking in the fragrance of blood, just like a diner taking a deep breath when seeing delicious food.
"Are you sure?"
Although it was a question, Aiwass used a calm and affirmative tone.
He didn't want to be as depraved as the Moon Child, but if someone offered themselves up to him, Aiwass certainly wouldn't mind.
The Moon Child will be strengthened by absorbing blood, and the stronger the blood, the better the effect. Generally speaking, the blood of the Path of Love is the best for the Moon Child, followed by the Path of Devotion - first the Moon, then the Sun.
Aiwass was also curious about how he would change after being strengthened. He had originally planned to use his own blood for experiments... but before that, it wouldn't be a bad idea to whet his appetite.
After all, it was the fourth level of virgin blood.
But at that moment, Haina suddenly felt a little scared for some reason: "Or... forget it."
Aiwass sneered silently and released the hand that was pinching her earlobe.
"Sherlock, do you know how to say this in Taichu language?"
"What?" Sherlock asked casually.
"Ye Gong likes dragons." Aiwass chuckled.
"Okay, I know you are knowledgeable."
Sherlock anxiously stroked the potion bottle at his waist, while Edward's dagger was already in his hand. "Can you be a little more nervous?"
"Then don't argue. I'm feeling the curse subtly."
Aiwass closed his eyes and opened his arms.
He suddenly sneered, "You still refuse to give up. You keep trying, just to put the curse on me..."
At this point, Aiwas's body suddenly disintegrated and turned into countless bats. Haina screamed in fear—she was the first to scream when she saw Aiwas' transformation.
This made Aiwass laugh out loud after he gathered everyone together again.
But at this time, Aiwass had already turned into the posture of No. 14.
Long black hair, scarlet eyes. Her delicate face was extremely plain, yet held an indescribable evil aura.
Haina opened her eyes wide, feeling deeply shocked: "Can a vampire do such a thing?
"Wait, Aiwass, who is this person you conjured up?"
"Oh, do you still recognize me?"
Aiwass said slowly.
The clear and cool voice was accompanied by a playful smile.
She leaned over, leaned into Haina's arms, and whispered softly, "Will it feel better if I suck your blood like this?"
"I……"
Haina did hesitate for a moment at that moment.
But after just a moment of hesitation, she was gently pushed away by Aiwass with a chuckle.
She watched Aiwas walk past her and toward the door. Aiwass, his back to Haena and Sherlock, said casually and slowly, "I'm just kidding, dear. I haven't really sucked blood yet, so I have to find a girl I like to commemorate it.
"--Or, do you want to sign up as well?"
Aiwass turned his head slightly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Although he was much shorter than Haina, his scarlet gaze gave Haina the feeling that he was looking down at her calmly.
For a moment, Haina didn't know how to respond.
She wanted to answer yes, that was her inner desire and curiosity, but she felt too embarrassed to say it, and she opened her mouth but didn't dare to say it out loud.
At that moment, Haina really envied Aiwass.
She just felt that after Aiwass became the Son of the Moon, he suddenly became... much more lively.
But it is not so much that his personality has changed, but rather that he has been liberated - Haina vaguely feels that Aiwass at this moment is just like herself during the holidays.
Back in her school days, Haina always acted well-behaved, calm, and intelligent. But in Eagle Point Village, she was actually a madcap leader, leading the children everywhere, taking them on adventures into dangerous places forbidden by adults—but she didn't want to show that side of herself.
Because she would feel ashamed.
She felt like she had grown up, and that she, who was free and unrestrained like that, was just a "child".
A child's self should not be shown in front of others.
Although Aiwass now seemed to be influenced by the path of love...but to Haina, it was like he had taken off a mask. He had an enviable sense of freedom.
"It seems you are still hesitant."
Aiwass waited for three seconds, and when Haina still didn't respond, he smiled and pushed open the door.
She stretched out her hand and gently placed it in the air as if looking for a dance partner.
Lily, who was hiding in the shadows, took a step forward and tried to grab Aiwass's hand. However, the shadow demon hiding in Aiwass's shadow emerged and grabbed Aiwass's hand with one hand.
"What a pity."
Aiwass lowered his head and chuckled, "You don't have blood for me to suck. And you still want my blood."
"Then... can you give it to me?"
A honey-like voice sounded softly.
"If you do well, I'll give it to you. My blood, my flesh. I'll give you everything you want."
Aiwass gently threw the shadow that was holding him into Lily's shadow.
Aiwass' entire body disintegrated again, transformed into a bat and flew up, directly through the window.
"—it's dark. Time to hunt, my hounds."
Aiwass's voice lingered in the room, a reverberation of Aiwass's, No. 14's, and Bayard's voices overlapping.
"As you wish."
Chloe's voice was heard in the house, and gradually turned into a lion-like roar.
The Flame-Rebellious Butterfly, which had been resting with its eyes closed, opened its eyes, and the flames on its body suddenly surged.
A red light flashed in Lily's eyes. She slightly arched her back and took a deep breath.
——As you wish. She moved her lips slightly and said silently.
At this moment, the sky was already covered with dark clouds.
