Why hadn't Great Vampire Cuiklan gotten to eat his favorite flame cake? What change had occurred in the Achitara family's traditions? How could a question like that possibly be answered by an ordinary noble girl?

So, after the mad knight sternly questioned her, the incoherent Linka was drenched in sweat within mere seconds.
