The next morning.
The atmosphere in Fang Li's room was rather strange.
"........."
Silence permeated the air.
Sitting on a chair by the bed, Fang Li watched the person in front of him, his eyes carrying a hint of amusement.
And in Fang Li's line of sight, on the bed, the pure white princess was neither gasping for breath in pain like yesterday, nor sleeping peacefully like the night before. Instead, she was staring straight at Fang Li with her ruby red eyes.
Her gaze was filled with hostility.
"........."
The silence continued.
Fang Li and the white-haired girl continued to stare at each other without saying a word. One had a smile on his face, while the other had a look of intense hostility, creating a stark contrast between them.
This scene had been going on for quite some time now.
Ever since the girl had woken up at some point and discovered Fang Li sitting next to her.
If there had been a third party present, they would have broken this eerie stalemate quickly.
Unfortunately, there was no third party here, only Fang Li and this noble princess.
So, under Fang Li's deliberate forbearance, this strange state of affairs continued.
Until a long time later.
"Do you have anything to ask me?"
Fang Li held out his hands and said to the girl.
"Or maybe vampires don't understand human language?"
After his words, there was still silence.
The girl continued to stare at Fang Li, her beautiful, charming face taut, but the ruby red eyes gradually showed confusion, replacing the intense hostility.
Perhaps the girl had concluded that the man in front of her had no intention of harming her.
After a moment of silence, the girl finally spoke.
"What do you mean? Are you not going to kill me?"
Her voice was as beautiful as a piece of exquisite music.
Inside her voice, there wasn't a trace of negative emotion, only pure confusion and a touch of innocent wonder.
Who would believe at first glance that this seemingly noble princess-like girl was a vampire capable of destroying everything around her and turning everything into a sea of blood?
It was in this situation that Fang Li spoke.
"You have to understand that the person who killed you wasn't me, but a high school student who was played by fate."
In the face of pure confusion, Fang Li made a straightforward correction.
"Or did your memory get confused after being killed once?" Fang Li blinked and said, "Do you need some nutritional supplement? Like blood, for example?"
"No need!" The girl's voice immediately lost its innocent wonder and regained intense hostility.
And this time, the hostility was even stronger than before.
It was as if she was rejecting the act of drinking blood, refusing to compromise.
In the face of such pure hostility, Fang Li only spoke lightly.
"Don't get too agitated; it's not good for your health."
One sentence was enough to dissolve the girl's pointed hostility.
The girl finally frowned and looked at Fang Li with confused eyes.
Only then did the girl realize a fundamental question.
That was...
"Who are you?"
The girl's expression became skeptical as she asked this.
"You seem to be a human, but not really. You seem to know a lot, but not only that. I don't understand."
It seemed that even though they had only interacted for a short time, the girl could somehow tell that Fang Li was no ordinary human.
But that made sense.
If he were an ordinary person, he wouldn't have been able to block her attack like he did yesterday.
The girl was sure of that.
In front of such a girl, Fang Li showed a look of disapproval.
"You must have used a lot of energy to resurrect yourself. Yesterday's rushed battle probably didn't show even one percent of your true strength. Blocking it is nothing to be surprised about."
At least, that's what Fang Li believed.
"If you could unleash your full power, yesterday's situation would have been completely different."
Saying this, Fang Li looked directly at the young girl and suddenly smiled.
"I'm right, aren't I?"
"Arcueid-Brunestud."
Upon hearing Fang Li's words, the girl referred to as Arcueid furrowed her brows deeper.
Soon after, she expressed surprise and said, "You know me?"
"Why? Is that so strange?" Fang Li replied. "You are the princess of the True Ancestors, a vampire princess born to hunt down fallen vampires. Your name, Arcueid-Brunestud, is probably known throughout the entire Inner World."
Indeed.
Arcueid-Brunestud.
That name is undoubtedly famous to those who know the secrets.
Speaking of which, it's necessary to mention the following.
In this world, there are two main types of vampires.
One type is the born vampire.
They are vampires from birth.
This type of vampire is known as the True Ancestor.
The young girl before Fang Li, named Arcueid, is actually a princess of the True Ancestors, a pure-blood race that is revered as the royal family among the True Ancestors and has lived for over eight hundred years.
Besides the True Ancestors, there is another type of vampire in this world.
These vampires are just like those in human legends: they feed on human blood, are active at night, and can turn humans into vampires by sucking their blood.
These vampires are known as the Dead Apostles.
In other words, True Ancestors are the naturally born vampires, while those transformed into vampires through unconventional means from humans are known as Dead Apostles.
Arcueid falls into the former category.
As the princess of the True Ancestors, her power is extremely strong.
As Fang Li said, Fang Li might not have been able to handle Arcueid's attack so easily yesterday if it were not for the considerable amount of power she used to resurrect after being killed once.
Realizing this, Arcueid finally responded.
"That's right!"
Arcueid's expression suddenly turned fierce as she shouted angrily at Fang Li.
"Where is the guy who killed me yesterday?"
As soon as Arcueid's voice fell, a timid reply came.
"Um, I'm here..."
At the door, Tohno Shiki stood with his hand raised, his face filled with embarrassment and a forced smile.
"----!"
Arcueid's eyes showed hostility again.
And an intense intent to kill as well.
Tohno Shiki felt a shiver run down his spine as he looked at this.
Immediately, he instinctively understood one thing.
If things continued like this, he would definitely be killed.
Absolutely.
