"Are we going to fight him?"
"Yeah, we are...I can either use Store on him, or I can transfer his life force into you...I'll let you pick."
"Hm...I guess I'll go with the latter, that option might be difficult to use once we rendezvous with the others...also, are you okay? You're drooling again, Kuro."
"I'm fine, it's just that I can sense his life force and it's pretty tantalizing...I literally can't help it."
It was a couple of hours later, and we were within sight of the old church that was to serve as our rendezvous point, about five hundred meters away. And about two hundred meters away from us, was a Vampire in a cape...a Vampire Knight.
I had decided to transfer the life force of one Vampire Knight into Persia, which we'd discussed after her fight with Lagusa. After all, I didn't need to consume the life forces of all the stronger Vampires, my body wouldn't be able to handle that much anyway.
