BXBX NOVEL Chapter 10 - 1.9
Michael was too tired, everything happened too fast today. He had also used magic that drained his energy. Michael couldn\'t help but to fall asleep on Yunyu\'s back. After knowing that the Prince fell asleep, Yunyu took a deep relieved breath.
He didn\'t need to die miserably, at least not now.
[Phew, he is finally asleep. Now we don\'t need to dilly dally.]
Yunyu took a deep breath, and he flashed through the woods. He jumped from one tree to another nimbly until they arrived at the side of the road where they ran away. The coachman was waiting for them anxiously. When the Duke and the Prince jumped and ran to the woods, he could only wait anxiously.
When he saw the Duke carrying the Prince, and his eyes were glowing red, his teeth had a set of fangs that couldn\'t be hidden, the fangs had blood dripping from it.
The coachman was frightened, but before he could do anything, Yunyu\'s eyes flashed and the coachman froze on the spot. Yunyu approached him and whispered, "You see nothing, you never see me and Prince Michael jumped to the woods, we are just passing this road without any hindrance. You got it?"
"Yes, Sir…"
Yunyu entered the carriage and put Michael on the seat gently. The carriage passed through the woods and arrived at the duchy mansion. Yunyu used all his strength left and hypnotized everybody, so everyone didn\'t see that Prince Michael has been injured and his clothes have been torn. He said to the Prince\'s guards, "Return back to your post, Prince Michael said that he wants to stay inside the mansion for the night."
"Yes, sir."
The maid prepared the room for Prince Michael and Yunyu put down the Prince gently. Yunyu was too exhausted and lazy to return back to his room. So, he just slept on the sofa inside the same room with Michael. True, he had consumed a rabbit blood just now, but all the reserve energy was drained after he did everything tonight.
Yunyu was quite satisfied with the system\'s arrangement. He thought that it would be hard to complete the task with the Duke\'s identity. But the Duke was so powerful, it made many things easy, like a golden finger.
[It\'s tiring, but it\'s a lot of fun. Duke Damien\'s body is really powerful, as expected from a Vampire Duke. Pupa, will you give me an even more powerful body in the next world?]
[Pupa: Wait, let me check what the next world will be.]
The system disappeared for a moment, and returned.
[Pupa: You will be disappointed.]
[What?! You won\'t give me a powerful body in the next world? Will you reduce me to an average, powerless joe?]
[Pupa: It\'s… much worse than that.]
[… at a moment, I had a thought of mending our relationship. But I\'ve changed my mind now. We will never be friends!]
[Pupa: I never have any intention of befriending you either.]
[(ಥ﹏ಥ)]
Yunyu closed his eyes. He was hungry again after he had exhausted his energy. He planned to drink cow\'s blood tomorrow, maybe it would taste like a wagyu steak.
When Yunyu opened his eyes again, he saw a big Christmas turkey slapping his face with its roasted wing. Half-asleep Yunyu took the roasted wing and sucked it.
Michael was stunned when the half-asleep Duke suddenly grabbed his hand and sucked it gently. He was going to wake up the Duke, he slapped the Duke\'s cheek a few times, but what he got was this.
The Duke sucked his fingers delicately, "Tasty…" the duke said with his sensual, blood red lips.
Michael was stunned at first, and then his face went tomato red. Surprisingly, hearing the duke sucking his fingers and calling it tasty gave him reactions down there. He had impure thoughts.
Michael pulled his hands with force, and his fingers accidentally got scratched by the Duke\'s sharp fang.
Yunyu who was enjoying a big Christmas turkey in his dream woke up immediately after tasting a very astringent, bitter, sour, scalding, disgusting taste in his mouth.
He looked to his right, Michael\'s face was dark, "What did you do just now?"
Yunyu blinked a few times.
[What did I do just now?]
[Pupa: You sucked his fingers and called it tasty.]
[Did I just… fell asleep? But I\'m a vampire!]
[Pupa: A vampire doesn\'t need sleep, but will have to in order to preserve his strength whenever he gets exhausted. Though, you are not exactly sleeping, more like, deep meditation.]
[But I totally dreamed of a big roasted turkey.]
[Pupa: You are just very hungry. That\'s why you are thinking about food all night.]
Yunyu cleared his throat and stood from the sofa, "I was dreaming about something, pardon my discourtesy."
Yunyu fixed his clothes and then said, "I\'ve already prepared a new set of clothes in the wardrobe for you. You can freely leave the mansion after changing your torn clothes."
Michael was still vigilant, his right hand was in his pocket, ready to open his holy book if the Duke suddenly attacked him. Michael confronted the Duke again, "Last night, it was all true?"
Yunyu nodded courteously. He had nothing to hide right now, "I am a Vampire, I\'ve lived for three hundred years, and I\'m here because the real son of the previous duke died of illness. I watched how the Duke was heartbroken when he saw his only son had died, so I replaced his body."
"Your highness, if you want to punish me and exterminate my existence, the last night\'s arrangement is still needed. Let me donate my wealth first, then you can kill me. Don\'t worry, I will not leave or run away," Yunyu said.
Michael was still vigilant with the Duke. But if the Duke wanted to kill him, or run away, he could\'ve done it last night, when he was fully exposed. The Duke\'s real identity, and his personality was just too shocking for Michael to handle.
"I didn\'t say that I will kill you now, but I will keep my eyes on you. I will make sure that you will not run away, once you think of running away, I will purge you immediately," Michael threatened the Duke.
Yunyu smiled hopelessly and nodded, "By your will, Your Highness."
Yunyu left the room and closed the door. Michael was watching the door. Somehow, the way the Duke reacted made him feel even guiltier. The Duke obviously saved him yesterday, he also carried him back to the mansion, even guarded him by sleeping on the sofa.
But Michael only threatened him over and over.
Michael was not a heartless man that didn\'t know how to be grateful to someone. But the Duke was…
\'What is he dreaming about anyway?\' Michael didn\'t know that a Vampire could sleep, but the Duke was definitely dreaming about something. He even sucked Michael\'s finger delicately.
\'Did she dream of a woman?! How despicable!\' Michael stomped his feet, \'I will never let him be close to any woman! He… he is going to defile a pure maiden!\'
Michael opened the wardrobe and changed his clothes. He opened the door and saw the Duke was still standing in front of his room. The Duke bowed and said, "Your carriage is ready."
Michael still remembered the moment when the Duke saved him, carried him, and sucked his fingers. But he also remembered how the Duke was a Vampire, sucked someone\'s blood, and that he was dreaming of a girl while sucking his fingers.
Like fire and ice in his heart, Michael said, "I will never let you off."
