Time always flies by quickly, and three years pass in a flash. This year, Allen is twelve years old.
Now Allen has begun to shed his childishness. Of course, in this castle, he is still just a child. Allen can now read most books and has a general understanding of the world around him. And he can interact with
Reading and chatting with Edith was his happiest time.
On this day, the butler Thomas found Allen. This middle-aged uncle, who looked ordinary and slightly old-fashioned, was always very kind to Allen, but today it seemed a little different. He left a sentence, "Master Allen, come with me."
Then walked away slowly.
Allen didn't know what was going on, but just followed step by step. The two came to an empty hall, which was a fully enclosed training ground. Thomas stood in the center of the training ground, silent.
"Uncle Thomas, what's wrong?" Allen asked doubtfully.
"Alan, I know that you have also read a lot of books, and you must already know what kind of existence we are. Do you also know that you are different?" Thomas said slowly.
"Well, we are the Vampire Clan, a noble existence..." Allen was not very sure. His mind was still just that of a twelve-year-old child. "I know that the Vampire Clan has many levels, such as Blood Knight, Baron, Viscount, etc...
.The highest is called Prince."
Thomas sighed and said, "I didn't want to say more before, but now I still hope you can be clearer." So Thomas started to explain.
A vampire, or a vampire as humans call it, is a mature vampire who embraces a human for the first time and then is reincarnated. The new vampire after reincarnation must have a lower level than the vampire who first embraced it, usually by two to three levels.
The degree of decline depends on the extent to which the first vampire consumes its own essence and blood. Therefore, the level of each new generation of vampires gradually decreases.
The blood clan has a strict hierarchy and is divided into eight levels in total, namely blood servant, blood knight, baron, viscount, earl, marquis, duke, and prince.
Starting from the level of Baron, each vampire has a unique bloodline ability. Some are naturally very powerful, while others are mediocre. Bloodline abilities will evolve as the bloodline level increases, and the direction of evolution varies from person to person.
Even some ordinary abilities can sometimes become extremely powerful if they can be promoted to high-level vampires.
As the newly reincarnated vampires have been downgraded all the way to the level of blood knights, they no longer have any bloodline abilities. Except that their bodies are stronger than ordinary humans and their lifespans are longer, they have no advantages at all. But the number of blood knights
At most, it forms the main foundation of the blood clan. If the blood knight embraces ordinary people for the first time, it will be reincarnated into the lowest level monsters such as blood servants. The physical life span of blood servants is even worse than that of ordinary humans, except for bloodthirsty ones.
Desire, without any reason.
The vampires that humans fear, causing harm to the world, are actually bloodthirsty monsters like blood servants. The more advanced vampires tend to have their own territories and rarely enter human society. Moreover, vampires rarely go out of their way to deliberately
Reincarnated blood servant. Unless it is for war, revenge or large-scale collection of blood.
In addition to fighting, the advancement of vampires usually relies on soaking in blood pools and absorbing blood essence. Different talents require different amounts of blood essence. At the same time, the higher the level, the more blood essence and blood are needed. Blood
The pool is a space built by dark magic formations. Normal blood is injected into it, and the blood pool will continuously refine the blood essence. Each clan of the blood clan has its own blood pool. For the blood clan, this is the most important thing.
Precious resources often require a lot of contribution and price in exchange for time soaked in the blood pool.
"So, do you understand why other people treat you badly?" Thomas sighed.
"Is it because I don't have any bloodline abilities? Is it just the blood knight level?" Allen asked. He knew a lot today. At the same time, he also vaguely felt that the meaning behind others accusing him of occupying the blood pool for five years may not be the same.
not simple.
"Alas... Not only that, you are the biological son of Prince Caesar, the only exception in the vampire family for thousands of years. Even the situations of Cain and Lilith in ancient legends are different from yours. Logically speaking, you should have extremely powerful abilities.
Talent, however..." Thomas said slowly.
"Uncle Thomas, don't sigh. In fact, I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I don't know what blood abilities are, and they won't be needed in this castle." Allen tried to comfort him.
Thomas did not accept the comfort, but continued: "Normally, within a year after reincarnation, the vampire's bloodline ability will awaken. I have read a lot of ancient books, and maybe there is a glimmer of hope..." What he didn't say
Yes, if Allen has no bloodline ability and is just the most ordinary blood knight, then he is not even qualified to live in Rose Castle.
"Alan, relax, let's get started." Thomas said solemnly.
"What's wrong?" Allen asked confused.
Thomas didn't answer. His expression was solemn. A drop of essence and blood condensed out from the center of his right eyebrow. The moment the essence and blood appeared, Thomas's face instantly turned pale, and beads of sweat loomed on his forehead. But he didn't care, and drew a circle in the air with his hands.
The talisman, and then pointed with his right hand, the talisman printed on Allen. In an instant, Allen felt as if his body was on fire, the pupils of his eyes were shining with blood red light, and the sharp teeth came out. This was the vampire hunting or fighting.
A state that only occurs when one is violent! Allen felt that his whole body was hot, the blood in his body was surging like a river, his muscles were a little tingling, but his body was very excited!
"Ah!!!" Allen shouted. However, it only lasted ten seconds before Allen recovered. He was sweating profusely and looked at Thomas. "Uncle...what's going on? I
What's wrong?"
"This!? How is it possible?..." Thomas seemed to have aged ten years in an instant, and his pale face was even more depressed due to the loss of blood and essence. He found this in ancient books and used his own blood and essence to help him.
The spell that makes other people's blood boil has the effect of forcibly stimulating the appearance of the bloodline ability of the vampires. Because he always believed that Allen could not have no bloodline ability. And ancient books record that this boiling blood state lasts for at least five years depending on the talent of the recipient.
To ten minutes, the longer the better...
"Could it be...that he really has no talent?" Thomas muttered to himself in disappointment.
"Forehead..."
"That's all." Thomas said with a painful expression: "We have guests coming tomorrow. Master Allen, go back and prepare."
"Guest?" Allen asked strangely. Ever since he became conscious, the Rose Castle has felt almost isolated from the world. Although people occasionally come in and out, they are all members of the clan. In Allen's impression, it seems
There is no concept of guests.
"Well, someone from the Mandala clan is visiting." Thomas explained.
