"Welcome, Blood Court envoy! I am King Andrew II of Sesvia. Please come in, envoy. We have prepared a sumptuous feast!"
Please, Your Excellency, sample this; it will also allow us to discuss the possibility of my Sesvia royal family joining the Blood Clan."
King Andrew II, First Stage, immediately bowed.
In reality, the kings of these feudal states were not particularly powerful; a high-ranking lord could easily berate the king if he was unhappy. Currently, only His Holiness the Pope, with his centralized authority, truly holds absolute power and is considered the most powerful person.
Therefore, when he saw Abraham, his attitude was not particularly arrogant.
"Very well!" Abraham nodded, looking at the vast royal castle before him.
Then, a grand banquet began.
As a member of the royal family, Andrew II is quite wealthy.
The royal castle is exquisitely and luxuriously decorated, magnificent and vast.
The entire castle includes an outer wall, an outer servants' living quarters, an outer commercial street, an outer horse ranch, a central royal living quarters, and an inner king's living quarters.
The castle is almost the size of a small town, and it can house a thousand people year-round.
The palace inside the banquet was even more magnificent, and the noble ladies and young ladies were all dressed in bright clothes, looking beautiful and charming. Abraham finally got to have a good meal while he was away on business. He drank a lot of the blood of noble ladies and young ladies in a dreamlike way, and deeply felt the fragrance of the women's blood. He even cried out because it was too delicious, and felt that his wonderful encounter was hard to come by!
After several rounds of drinks and five courses of food,
Finally, the royal family members and the Blood Court Tribunal, having eaten and drunk their fill, sat on either side of the palace and began to get down to business.
"Grand Duke Abraham, are you satisfied with my hospitality?" Andrew II sat on his high throne, smiling as he looked down at the Vampire below.
As the banquet progressed, he realized that these Vampire were merely more attractive and outstanding in appearance; in reality, they were no different from humans, possessing their own desires and personalities. This made him feel that his sense of nobility as a king had returned.
However, since he hadn't become Vampire yet and hadn't achieved immortality, he ultimately restrained himself somewhat.
"This is truly an extremely lavish feast. I imagine His Majesty the First Ancestor would be even more delighted if he were here." Abraham smiled enigmatically, sitting gracefully in his elegant chair, a look of utter satisfaction on his face.
"Haha, that's good! In that case, Grand Duke Abraham, may we discuss the matter of my Sesvia royal family becoming Vampire?" Andrew II was overjoyed; the thought of immortality even made him feel a little restless with excitement.
Seeing his excited expression, Abraham hesitated for a moment before finally nodding slowly.
"His Majesty the Progenitor has gladly accepted the members of the Sesvia royal family into our Blood Clan. However, Blood Clan laws cannot be disobeyed. Therefore, after becoming Vampire, he hopes that the Sesvia royal family will strictly abide by the Progenitor's laws, obey orders without question, and not violate them in the slightest!"
"Of course! I accept whatever you say. Turn me into Vampire quickly! I can't wait to have eternal life!" Andrew II excitedly stood up from his throne, urging repeatedly, eager to become Vampire as soon as possible and restore vitality to his aged body.
As for Abraham's statement that becoming Vampire would require obeying the laws of the Blood Court?
What a joke! A king like him, how could he not have some special powers?
"Very well, since that's the case, then I, Abraham, declare the covenant established. From this day forward, the Blood Red Church bestows upon the Sesvia royal family the blood of eternal life, and the Sesvia royal family will forever be subservient to the Blood Red Church, and to His Majesty the First Ancestor!"
Abraham reached out and took out a scroll, writing the contract on it. These were to be kept as a record of the contract in the Blood-Colored Inquisition.
At his signal, the other dozen or so Second-Generation Vampire stood up from their seats and then came one by one to the side of the Sesvia royal family, beginning to drink their blood and transform them into Third-Generation Vampire.
As the Embrace and a powerful sense of strength slowly emanated from his body, Andrew II became increasingly excited, his body even trembling slightly.
As the Embrace ended, feeling the energy and power bursting forth from his aged body, just like when he was twenty, Andrew II laughed heartily, going wild with excitement.
"Hahaha, I, Andrew II, from this day forward, will be the eternal royal family of Sesvia, and the land of Sesvia will forever be beneath my feet!!!"
The surge of energy and the sudden acquisition of immense power filled all the royal family members with elation. They ran and jumped wildly throughout the hall, experiencing the oppressive feeling brought about by their Vampire bloodline.
Abraham and the other Vampire of the Inquisition sat high on their thrones, silently watching this farcical spectacle that resembled a clown performance. They did not utter a word to stop it.
This may be the happiest, brief moment in their eternal lives; let them enjoy it as much as they can.
King Andrew II was driven mad with excitement. With immortality and power, the grand ambition within him had awakened. He decided to expand, expand, and expand again! To become a true Vampire king!
After a long while, the farce staged by the Sesvia royal family finally came to a slow end, Andrew II's gaze once again fell upon Abraham sitting to the side.
Having achieved his goal and attained immortality, Andrew II desired nothing more.
The respect and flattery on his face had largely faded.
However, the slightly threatening pressure emanating from Abraham and the other second- Second-Generation Vampire prevented him from becoming so arrogant as to lose his mind.
However, his words were no longer flattering.
"Now that the contract has been established, you envoys may leave the palace."
Of course, if one wishes to stay in the palace for a while, that is certainly possible. The Sesvia royal family always welcomes everyone.
King Andrew II feigned generosity, but his words clearly implied that he wanted the guest to leave.
The adult world is changing too fast!
Abraham extended his hand in a gesture of refusal, then said calmly, "There's no need for accommodation. His Majesty is a germaphobe and dislikes others staying in his palace. Therefore, King Andrew should leave with his family as soon as possible. This will allow us to quickly arrange for cleaning to prepare for His Majesty's arrival!"
Abraham's words made Andrew II frown, suddenly sensing that things might not be so simple.
"What's the meaning?"
Andrew II stared intently at Abraham's face, a hint of displeasure clearly visible on his still pale face, which was not yet fully transformed.
Grand Duke Abraham looked at him with a face full of surprise and said, " Andrew, you and your family have already obtained immortality, you wouldn't still be thinking about getting the palace, would you?"
"This place now belongs to His Majesty Norton!"
