A major battle is imminent.
Su Chen was kept under close watch by Arthur, as if she would run away if she wasn't in his sight.
As it turns out, she really could run.
The system has assigned a new task, saying that the female lead is about to give birth and you must ensure her safety during childbirth.
Moreover, the female lead's due date coincides with the start of the great war.
What if we don't plan ahead?
And judging from Arthur's demeanor, she would believe it if he tied her to his body with ropes during a major battle.
She doesn't dare to leave her room freely now.
Once, he went to the kitchen to find something to eat, and when he came back, he saw a group of people kneeling on the ground, with Arthur holding a big knife as if he was about to chop someone up.
Startled, Su Chen quickly dodged to block his knife.
The problem is that even if you manage to stop them, you'll be caught in the middle.
The hunters at the scene that day looked at her with increasing hostility, and on one occasion she even overheard them saying that she was a femme fatale.
She spoke with such venomous grit, as if she had committed some heinous crime.
She even suspected that they were plotting to kill her while Arthur was away.
The way those men looked at her was as cold and sinister as a venomous snake, sending chills down her spine.
Su Chen couldn't help but laugh whenever she saw that look in her eyes. Although the quality of the blood she consumed wasn't as good as before, she could easily deal with these few small fry.
None of them possessed Arthur's vampire-like speed; it would be easy for her to take their lives in seconds.
"How do I complete this mission... I can't escape Arthur." Su Chen complained to the system with a bitter face.
【Then why don't you just slip away on the day of the big battle?】
"But during the battle, I also have to check if any of the original owner's enemies are inside. If they're not dead, I'll have to finish them off," Su Chen said, quite troubled.
【That can wait, the female lead's task is rather urgent. I have a feeling that the little one in her belly might cause some trouble. You'll have to keep an eye on things.】
Su Chen could only nod.
If the female lead gets into danger, the world will be in danger of collapsing.
After the collapse, Su Chen herself had no idea what dangers she would face.
"Where will the female lead be that day?" Knowing the location might save some time on the day.
[Inside the Count's room at Polidori Castle.]
Su Chen nodded. She knew this road very well, and with the blood of the Polidori family, the restrictions on entering and leaving the castle were useless against her.
【but……】
"But what? Is there another problem?"
However, Benjamin set up his own restrictions inside the house, allowing only his direct bloodline to enter and exit. In other words, even the female lead cannot freely enter or leave.
"What...what should we do?" Su Chen remembered that the Earl didn't seem to have embraced anyone, which meant he had no direct bloodline?!
Um... he has a half-brother, whom you know.
Su Chen exclaimed in surprise, "Arthur?!"
[Hmm.] This world is so melodramatic, it's almost like a thunderstorm.
Fortunately, the female lead had absolutely no connection with them, otherwise it would have been a tragedy like the one in the thunderstorm.
Su Chen asked, "If I take his blood and hold it in my mouth, it should be able to go in, right?"
[Probably... The key question is, how are you going to get Arthur's blood?] Su Chen has been eating animal blood lately, so if she asks for his blood out of nowhere, he'll definitely become suspicious, right?
"Why don't you secretly bleed him?" the system suggested.
Su Chen shook her head. "Why sneak around? Why not just drink it openly?"
