Chapter 4: "The Great Garlic Statue Fiasco
Count Clumsy proudly displayed his giant garlic statue, thinking it was the Golden Garlic Bulb. The vampires at the convention gasped in confusion.
Baron Bloodworth sneered, "You call that a trophy? Ha! That's just a giant garlic statue!"
Count Clumsy's face fell as he realized his mistake. "Oh dear... I might have, uh, misgarlic-ified..."
The crowd erupted in laughter and applause, enjoying the absurdity of the situation. Igor facepalmed, "Count, you've done it again..."
Count Clumsy tried to salvage the situation, "Uh, well, it's still a very... impressive garlic statue, yes?"
But the damage was done. The Count's reputation as a bumbling vampire was solidified. The Golden Garlic Bulb remained elusive, and Baron Bloodworth gloated, "You'll never get it, Clumsy! It's mine, I tell you!
Count Clumsy gathered ingredients and began cooking. The aroma of garlic bread wafted through the convention hall, enticing the vampires. Baron Bloodworth raised an eyebrow, "You think garlic bread will impress us?"
Count Clumsy proudly presented his creation: a majestic garlic bread sculpture, shaped like a vampire castle. The crowd gasped in surprise.
Igor whispered, "Count, it's... quite... something."
The vampires cautiously approached, their curiosity piqued. One bite and their eyes widened in astonishment. "This is actually... delicious!" someone exclaimed.
Baron Bloodworth grudgingly admitted, "Fine, Clumsy. You've managed to create something impressive. But it's still not enough to prove yourself worthy of the Golden Garlic Bulb."
Count Clumsy beamed with pride as the vampires devoured his garlic bread sculpture. "Ha! I've done it! I've proven my worth!"
But Baron Bloodworth sneered, "Not so fast, Clumsy. Your little snack may have impressed these fools, but it's not enough to convince me. You'll need to do better... much better."
Count Clumsy's face fell, but then a mischievous grin spread across his face. "Oh, I see. Well, in that case... I'll just have to come up with a new plan!"
And with that, he whispered something in Igor's ear, and they both snickered deviously.
What's Count Clumsy's next move? Will he finally get his hands on the Golden Garlic Bulb or get into even more trouble? Let's find out in Chapter 5!
