Chapter 82 Blood Race (Part 2)
Although vampires claim to be nobles in the dark, and give people the impression that they are always switching between blood-eating beasts and stately gentlemen, in fact, no beast can devour blood forever, and no noble can completely
Self-discipline. So people who really understand the Vampires know that in the final analysis, they are just leeches attached to the huge human race. Maybe one vampire is enough to terrorize a party in the dark for many years, but as long as humans really organize an army
Encircling and suppressing the exposed vampires, they have no choice but to escape. In fact, when vampires are hunting ordinary people in the dark, some people who have been in contact with the darkness and have not gone crazy are also hunting them. These people
Known as witchers or simply hunters, they have embarked on this extremely threatening path for various reasons, wandering in the darkness with mortal bodies and wisdom. They are also the most hated natural enemies of vampires.
And even if these anomalies among humans are removed, the number of aliens like vampires that are attached to human gathering places is not actually rare. Whether they are witches, dark wizards, werewolves, or other things, they all have the same impact on the number of humans in their territory.
There is a lot of demand. Therefore, safe and sustainable hunting grounds are more precious than anything else in their eyes. And in the eyes of these guys, the Vampires are just one of the entities in the darkness who also want a piece of the pie.
"So what you're saying is that vampires and other things are actually like carnivores in the wild. Although they look scary and abnormal to humans, they are not as scary as we think?" Elsa said after listening.
"Although I know this sounds unbelievable, it is true. And compared to those things that require a lot of blood, vampires will be very careful to protect the number of humans in their territory. Whether you believe it or not, there were vampire families who
Protect the humans in your own territory and fight for the local lord. Of course, that lord doesn’t know about it.” The mage shrugged and said.
"But no matter what kind of existence they are, they all eat humans, don't they? I mean, they all need to drink human blood. They protect humans just like farmers protect their livestock. This is not noble at all." said the boss's wife.
.
"That's true, but...well, maybe you are right. I just want to tell you not to be so blindly afraid of those guys. After all, you see, they will be killed by poplar trees and burned to ashes by flames.
, even running water can make them powerless, not to mention that they can't even open an unlocked door without the owner's permission." Scratching his head, Cheese realized that maybe for ordinary people, wanting to make them objective
To look at itself is an act of imposition. No one can remain calm when they see monsters that feed on humans. This may be one of the reasons why people are afraid of spellcasters, when you have power they cannot understand and
When you can still talk to those terrifying foreign objects, in their eyes, you are no longer one of the same kind.
"Okay, I think I understand what you mean. I'm sorry for the harm I just caused to your family." Looking at the mage who was frustrated because he realized that he could not explain his point of view, the lady boss said with a smile.
"She is not my family...she is just the person who raised me, she is not even a human being." Cheese argued in a low voice. Although he and Alina have a close relationship, the mage's definition of family is still very narrow.
Yes, in his concept, people who are not related by blood cannot be considered family members.
"That's just you haven't realized it yet. Well, now that I'm not so afraid of vampires anymore, can you tell me why the black cat appeared in your room?" He was amused by Cheese's retardation.
Elsa asked.
"Okay, actually I don't quite understand why he came to me. But what is certain is that that guy doesn't seem to have anything to do with the plague. Judging from what he said, he probably accidentally felt the release of me.
He only found the magic power. If I guessed correctly, this guy is probably an exile from a certain vampire family. He was exiled to the Iron Castle to explore the unexplored territory to see if it was suitable for becoming a vampire territory.
This is very common among some big families," the mage said.
"So that means he has nothing to do with the recent curfew?" said the landlady.
"I'm afraid not, but according to the xenophobic nature of vampires, he should know what prompted the city lord to impose a curfew. It's just that it would be difficult to find that guy in the city where he has lived for many years, and in a short time he probably
You don't have the guts to come to me again." Cheese said. There was a hint of frustration in his tone. Although he didn't care very much about Iron Castle's curfew, he might accept them if he could get information from the black cat.
Maybe the following actions will help.
"I remember... you said that if something like a head falls into the hands of a wizard, they can easily find that person, right?" Elsa said suddenly.
"Yes, what's wrong?" The mage raised his head in confusion and asked. He had indeed told Elsa about this.
"Then, maybe I can help you find that cat." With a naughty smile on her lips, the landlady opened her left hand, and a small handful of black cat hair lay in her palm.
"Maybe it was torn off when I grabbed it. Do you think it can be used?"
The mage looked at the handful of cat hair and suddenly felt that some things in this world were so wonderful. He carefully took the cat hair from Elsa's hand, picked up one and put it under his nose and smelled it.
"It smells like a dead body. Yes, that cat is his true form. We can have a good sleep tonight, and then when it gets dark, we'll go poke the bat nest." Thinking of the vampire being raided at home during the day
In this dilemma, both people in the room showed "happy" smiles.
At this time, the black cat that luckily escaped from Elsa just now didn't know what kind of tragic experience he would encounter the next day. But let's put aside the grudges between the mage and the black cat for the time being. In the eyes of Cheese and the others,
After a relatively peaceful night, a report documenting the disappearance of two teams of vigil knights was delivered to the desk of the Lord of the Iron Castle. This made the old man, who had been forced to sleep in armor for a long time, see a black eye.
