Chapter 211 It smells so good, can I drink your blood?
"It's a vampire!"
Castile's pupils contracted, and out of his sight, he quickly tore off the bracelet on his right hand, picked up the bow and arrows he had just thrown on the ground, and planned to pull little Tronos towards home.
Unfortunately, how can a human's speed compare to that of a vampire?
Almost the instant he started running, the vampire was already in front of them, his sharp nails aimed straight at Tronos's face.
"I've never drunk the blood of a minor witch before, so today is the perfect opportunity for me to try it." The vampire Leon's scarlet eyes couldn't hide his excitement.
"Don't even think about it!" Castil reacted swiftly, using his bow to block Leon's attack, and shouted to Tronos, "Run!"
Little Tronos looked at his father blocking his way, hesitated for a second, then turned and ran back with all his might.
"You think you can stop me?" Leon tilted his head, gave Castile a contemptuous smile, and with a forceful movement, the wooden bow broke in two.
Castile staggered back two steps, then was swatted away by Leon without any resistance, crashing heavily into the tree trunk and rolling to the ground, unable to move.
Little Tronos heard the noise, turned around, and cried out in terror, "Father!"
"Cough cough." Blood trickled from Castil's mouth as she whispered in the direction of little Tronos, "Don't worry about me, go back to your mother!"
Little Tronos wiped away his tears and was about to go back to get reinforcements when he found that he couldn't move either.
Leon raised his other hand from behind, and in an instant, little Tronos, who had only managed to run a dozen meters away, easily returned to his side and was grabbed by the neck.
"What an enticing scent." Leon sniffed closely at little Tronos, his eyes narrowing in ecstasy.
"Get away from me, vampire! Stay away from me!" Little Tronos struggled desperately, but found that his body remained motionless under his control.
Just as Leon was about to bite his neck, Castile interrupted him.
Castile, using sheer willpower to prop himself up on the tree trunk, picked up the broken bow from the ground and charged toward Leon.
Unfortunately, Castile was swatted away by Leon once again before he could even get close.
However, this time, Castile was caught on the lower back just as he was about to crash into the tree again.
“Eleanor.” A familiar presence drew near, and Castile immediately recognized the person. “You’ve come!”
Castile's bracelet was a pair; the other one was worn by Eleanor.
After they got together, Eleanor was worried that he would be in danger again, so she specially made this pair of bracelets to call for help in time.
If the cord breaks in the event of danger, the one on Eleanor's hand will become hot, and she will be able to know his location immediately and rush over in time.
Eleanor rushed over as quickly as possible after receiving the signal, but because they were still deep in the forest, it took them some time to find them.
Eleanor gave Castile a recovery potion, not having time to feel sorry for him, and only let him rest against the tree trunk for a while. Then she looked at Leon, her lips tightly pressed together, and anger surged up.
Leon, who was drinking blood from little Tronos's neck, suddenly felt a burning sensation. His keen awareness made him quickly grab little Tronos's neck and dodge to the other side.
"Mother!" Little Tronos, who had been drained of several mouthfuls of blood, recovered and looked at the newcomer with surprise.
Seeing that her first attack missed, Eleanor did not stop and threw several more fireballs at Leon.
The Witch Clan's Heavenly Fire (which appeared in Chapter 197) was the bane of the vampires. Leon fled in a sorry state, and although he managed to avoid most of the damage, he still suffered burns to his hands and feet.
Just before the next fireball came, he shielded little Tronos in front of him and said, "This is your son, isn't it? How about we try to see if your fire will burn me to death first, or if I'll snap his neck first?"
Eleanor's angry eyes suddenly widened in shock.
Heavenly Fire cannot harm its own kind, which is why Eleanor can use it against Leon without any scruples.
However, Leon's threat prevented her from throwing her next fireball.
She feigned indifference and said, "It's just a bastard born from a human and a human, do you think I would care?"
"Oh?" Leon glanced calmly at the little Tronos in his hand. "In that case, I'll take this little witch with me."
After saying that, he made a move to leave.
Eleanor finally relented: "What do you want in return for letting him go?"
“I think…” Leon stopped in his tracks, an idea forming in his mind almost instantly: perhaps he could drink the blood of an adult witch today.
He said, "How about this, use your life to exchange for his life, one life for one life, isn't that a good deal?"
"No, Mother, don't agree to him!"
Castile rose weakly. "Eleanor, he's lying to you. Even if you die, Tronos and I will still be at his mercy."
"Oh dear, I actually forgot about you, a human."
Leon looked at Castile and said in a playful voice, "Let me think about it. Why don't you do it yourself? As long as you kill her, I'll release your son."
“Absolutely impossible!” Castile glared at Leon, his voice escaping through clenched teeth.
“Is that so? Then I can only…” Leon raised an eyebrow and increased the pressure on his hand.
"Ho ho."
Tronos's temples bulged with veins as he struggled to breathe.
Eleanor clenched and unclenched her fists. "Stop! I promise you!"
“Eleanor!” Castile said, her eyes filled with conflict, but she still disagreed.
"Mother, wheezing, no, you can't," Tronos said hoarsely, gasping for air after being released.
“I agree, but on one condition.” Eleanor took a deep breath, trying to calm her anger, and said, “You must swear an oath never to harm them, or you will not leave here alive today!”
……
After that, Eleanor died, and Castile, heartbroken after killing his lover, also committed suicide.
They thought that with Leon's oath, little Tronos would be safe.
To everyone's surprise, Leon still took little Tronos away along with Eleanor's body.
Leon cannot harm young Tronos, but other vampires can. They raise young Tronos as a blood slave, intending to kill him when he is about to come of age.
Later, young Tronos reached adulthood prematurely and burned all the vampires who had drunk from him.
……
Tronos rubbed his throbbing temples and got up to go downstairs.
Lin Shuwan, who was having brunch, looked up when she heard the noise: "Good morning, what have you been doing in your room these past few days? You haven't made a sound."
"Good morning." Tronos didn't answer Lin Shuwan's question, but pulled out a chair and sat down next to her. "Want to come somewhere with me after you finish eating?"
“Oh, where to?” she asked.
"Get me something." Tronos looked at her. "Something you like."
"What I like, could it be... gemstones!" Lin Shuwan suddenly looked at him and guessed.
Tronos smiled and nodded.
Lin Shuwan, who had been leisurely enjoying her drink, finished the last cup in one gulp, wiped her mouth, stood up, and said, "I'm ready, let's go!"
