Arcueid Brunestud

The next day, early morning.

Inside Fang Li's room, the atmosphere was rather eerie.

"..."

Silence spread through the air.

Sitting on the chair by the bed, Fang Li was staring ahead, a hint of amusement in his eyes.

Where Fang Li's gaze fell, on the bed, the White Princess was neither breathing heavily with pain as she had yesterday, nor sleeping peacefully as she had last night. Instead, she stared straight at Fang Li with her pair of vermilion eyes wide open.

His eyes were filled with hostility.

"..."

Silence continued all around.

Fang Li and the girl in white just stared at each other without saying a word. One had a smile on his face, while the other looked hostile, creating a stark contrast.

This scene has been going on for quite some time now.

Just as the girl woke up without realizing it and found Fang Li sitting next to her.

If a third party were present, this strange situation would probably be broken very quickly, right?

Unfortunately, there was no third party here, only Fang Li and this noble princess.

Thus, with Fang Li's deliberate indulgence, this strange state was maintained.

It wasn't until much later.

"Is there anything you want to ask?"

Fang Li shrugged and said this to the girl.

"Or perhaps, vampires don't actually understand human language?"

After he finished speaking, the silence remained.

The girl stared intently at Fang Li, her beautiful face tense, but a sense of bewilderment gradually emerged in her crimson eyes, replacing the intense hostility.

Perhaps the girl had already realized that the man in front of her did not intend to harm her?

Therefore, after a moment of silence, the girl finally spoke.

"What do you mean? You're not going to kill me?"

The sound was as beautiful as a piece of music.

Inside, there wasn't a trace of negative emotion; there was only simple doubt and a touch of naive romance.

No one would believe it immediately, right?

This seemingly noble princess-like girl is actually a vampire capable of destroying everything around her and turning all things into a crimson sea of blood.

Under these circumstances, Fang Li spoke up.

"You need to understand, the person who killed you wasn't me, but some high school student who was being played by fate."

Faced with simple doubts, Fang Li simply offered corrections.

"Or is it that being killed once will cause your memories to become confused?" Fang Li blinked and said, "Do you need some nourishment? Like, drinking your blood or something?"

"No need!" The girl's innocent and romantic voice vanished instantly, replaced by intense hostility.

Moreover, the hostility was even stronger than before.

That look was as if he was resisting the act of "drinking blood," and he absolutely refused to compromise.

Faced with the girl's pure hostility, Fang Li simply spoke casually.

"It's best not to get too excited, as that's bad for your health."

In a single sentence, the girl's targeted hostility crumbled.

This finally made the girl frown, her eyes filled with confusion as she looked at Fang Li.

It was only then that the girl realized the most fundamental problem.

That is...

Who are you?

Doubt began to creep into the girl's expression.

"It seems human, but it doesn't feel like it. It seems to know a lot of things, but it also seems to know more than that. I don't understand it at all."

It seems that, despite having only interacted once, the girl could tell that Fang Li was not an ordinary human.

That makes sense, though.

An ordinary human being would have no way to block the girl's attack like they did yesterday.

The girl was certain of this much.

Fang Li remained unimpressed by the girl's appearance.

"You seem to have expended a lot of power to revive. Yesterday's hasty battle probably didn't even show one percent of your strength. Even if you managed to block it, there's nothing surprising about it."

At least, that's what Fang Li thinks.

"If you had been able to unleash your full potential, things would have been completely different yesterday."

As he said this, Fang Li looked directly at the girl and suddenly smiled.

Am I right?

Arcueid Brunestud.

Upon hearing Fang Li's words, the girl Fang Li called Arcueid frowned even more deeply.

Then, the girl asked in surprise, "You know me?"

"What? Is it strange?" Fang Li replied, "The princess of the True Ancestor, the vampire princess born to hunt fallen vampires, your name is probably known to everyone in the entire underworld, right?"

That's right.

Arcueid Brunestud.

This name is absolutely legendary to those who have any contact with the mysterious.

Speaking of which, we have to mention this.

In this world, vampires are mainly divided into two types.

One type is a born vampire.

A vampire who is born a vampire.

These vampires are the True Ancestor.

The girl before us, named Arcueid, is actually a princess of the True Ancestor. She is revered by the True Ancestor as a pure-blooded member of the royal family and has lived for over eight hundred years.

Besides the True Ancestor, there is another type of vampire in this world.

These vampires are no different from the legendary vampires known to humans. They feed on human blood, are active at night, and can even create their own kind through blood-sucking, turning humans into vampires.

These vampires are what are known as Dead Apostle.

In other words, vampires who are born vampires are True Ancestor, while vampires who transform from humans into vampires through alternative means are Dead Apostle.

Arcueid is the former.

As the princess of the True Ancestor, her power is unparalleled.

Just as Fang Li said, if he hadn't been killed once and had expended a great deal of power to revive, he probably wouldn't have been able to deal with Arcueid's attack so easily Fang Li.

Thinking about this, Arcueid finally realized what was going on.

"That's right!"

Arcueid's expression suddenly turned terrifying, and she shouted angrily at Fang Li.

"Where is the guy who killed me yesterday?"

Arcueid's voice had barely faded when a weak response rang out.

"Um, I'm here..."

There, at the doorway, stood Tohno Shiki, his hand raised, his face full of embarrassment and a forced smile.

"————!"

Arcueid's eyes turned hostile again.

Furthermore, there was a strong killing intent emanating from it.

Tohno Shiki felt a chill run down his spine.

Immediately, I instinctively understood something.

If this continues, they will definitely be killed.

absolute.
