Gail huffed in annoyance but continued to do as he was told. "Why are you stacking books like this? At least you should sort by size."
"I told you, I don't have time."
Gail was annoyed but his carelessness had become part of the old man. In the end, he kept the books tidy. He picked up some books and put them on the shelf and arranged them. His gaze stopped when he saw the unfamiliar title of the book.
"Aima...?" said Gail picking up the book and showing it to the old man. "Hey, what book is this?"
The man who was focusing with the microscope lens finally lifted his face, "Isn't there a title there?"
"Yeah I know, but about what? I've never heard of Aima before. Is this a book about sexuality? A porn book?" asked Gail happily.
This man rolled his eyes, "Seriously, if you are looking for a book like that you can find it at Night Flowers," he said.
"Then?"
The old man straightened his stiff body then pushed his wheelchair and tur
"You don't want to return to the human world?" Rai asked suddenly.Diana put the spoon back in the glass, "Should we discuss this?""Not really, I was just asking.""No. That's my answer," Diana replied."Why?"Diana sighed, "Do you mind if I have a secret and don't want to tell anyone else, including you?""I don't mind, it's just that I'm curious. A young woman who's been missing for almost a week and yet she has no intention of running away to return home, no one is even looking for her. Isn't this strange?" Rai explained."Back? Home?" Diana said then pursed the corners of her lips, "I don't have any of these. The only place I can return to is with God.""So you came to the Silver Forest to kill yourself?"Diana chuckled, "I don't want to commit a sinful act. I just came here to live as long as possible," she said."Are you stupid or what?" joked Rai."You know the legend about the Silver Forest but you
Pate looked at the sheet of paper with a gold wax stamp and an eagle print on his desk. The color and emblem of this wax stamp are Raltz's, and of course, this letter means it's from Raltz.Each clan does have its color and symbol. The symbol is presented using animals, which are bird groups, and colors that also represent the animal.The Haltz clan has the Phoenix bird as their emblem and red as their clan's official color. While Raltz has an eagle with gold color. While Waltz, they have a black crow.***"Is this information accurate?" asked Pate."Yes. I've never been wrong in providing information," Kori replied confidently with the information she provided."Are you sure?" Pate doubted it, "It says Pine, not Diana Charlotte. Only Pine," he said, emphasizing the name on the piece of paper.Kori nodded, "That woman lost her memory, and it seems Kevin named her after Pine."Pate was still undecided
"I told you from the start, that humans would bring conflict, but you never listen to me. Now it's not too late, you can get rid of her," said Al.Rai looked at him sharply, "You are the one I will get rid of."Al looked suspiciously, "You are strange, Rai. From the start even until this moment, you didn't kill that woman, on the contrary, you let her stay here even though you knew what risk you would take if Harawaltz found out about her whereabouts. Then your attitude... Your attitude really changed 180 degrees after her arrival."Al kept on talking even though Rai looked at him sharply, "Besides isn't she weird? She should have run away long ago, but she's living here instead. It's as if she's ready to stay forever and start adapting to our world—the vampires.""You—" Al looked at Rai intently, "—you're not in love with her are you?"Without refutation or denial, Rai agreed. He said that indeed he fell in love with this human.
"What did you call me here for?" he asked, getting to the point."You still haven't changed, Dominic. Impatient and doesn't like small talk.""If you want to tell me to come just to clean up the crumbs, then I don't have time," said Dominic, he immediately got up but was instantly stopped by Ben's words."The Prince who has the same destiny as the King. How about we make a second King's Story?"BAM!Dominic turned the table in front of him, "Don't play with me, Ben! I can kill you anytime!" he threatened.Ben remained calm and looked at Dominic. This vampire was deliberately provoking, he instead curled the corners of his lips, giving a smile that had many evil meanings."Prince keeps a human in his castle, moreover he will marry that human. Don't you know? Aren't you the King?" sarcasm subtly but still piercing.Ben kept smiling slyly and Dominic hated that smile. He wanted to beat Ben, but something was in the way. S
"I wonder, what exactly is that building?" Diana thought."That is the ruins of the kingdom of Aima," said Rai who was already behind Diana.Diana turned her head but the look on her face showed that she was not at all surprised by Rai's sudden arrival. Rai slowly approached Diana who was already standing in front of the ruins."If this is what you saw earlier," continued Rai."Aima? I never heard of it," replied Diana."Of course, because that kingdom has collapsed since ten centuries ago.""And those are the ruins?""You could say that. Even this castle is also part of Aima.""It's sad," Diana said."What's so sad? It's just evidence of a kingdom that no longer exists .""What about the fate of the people and their leaders?""Dead, of course.""Is that true?" Diana asked."What else do you expect from humans who lived ten centuries ago? They are not vampires who can live forever," r
"I heard what you and Al said yesterday. Sorry for putting you in a difficult position. If you want, you can kill me at any time," Diana said seriously but with a flat expression, continuing their unfinished conversation.Rai was surprised, "You... heard it?" and Diana nodded."How? When? I didn't feel her presence at all. Even the smell... I didn't smell her at all!" Rai thought."I overheard the conversation between you and Al when I was trying to find the twins," Diana explained. "A lot of people say I'm weird, so I wouldn't be surprised if you or Al said the same thing about me. I just don't care about it all."Diana took a deep breath, "They say I should be dead. They say I'm useless. But I... really… don't care.""What do you mean?" Rai asked, not understanding the direction of Diana's conversation.This woman seemed to be talking about a topic they had not discussed at all. She seemed to be talking to herself. Rai had maximized his thoughts to understand the conversation, but t
Rai shook his head, "But you're too complicated. I don't understand the way of your thinking at all. You're saying things that I don't understand."Diana turned her back, gazing at the view outside the castle from the stained-glass window. "It's not that complicated. It's just that I don't know how I tell you. Explaining it bit by bit will certainly lead you to the conclusion that what I said was something complicated.""If you want to speak, speak in front of me. Don't turn around and instead mumble words that I can't hear," Rai explained, feeling annoyed."No," Diana replied curtly but sharply."What!?" Rai started to get emotional."Get out. I don't want to say anything more."Rai chuckled loudly, then obeyed Diana's wishes. He walked away, not forgetting to stomp his feet in annoyance. Rai also slammed the door loudly as he can, a form of channeling his emotions."No matter how much I explain, in the end, you will never understand," said Diana.***At Raltz Castle, Pine was sittin
"We're about to start the hunt, Fos!" Kori said, taking a seat in front of Fos."Starting the hunt?"Kori smiled, "Yes, hunting. Pate has decided to attend the meeting.""What's your plan? That woman is under Kevin's protection," Fos asked without taking his eyes off the book he was reading, "And did you notice? That means your engagement to him has been canceled."Kori snorted loudly, "To hell with the engagement, it would be better if I married Christ. You agree, don't you?" but Fos did not provide an answer."I asked about the plan, what are you going to do to confront Kevin?" Fos asked again."Let Mite fight him, she's trained to be a useful dog. By the way, where is she?""In the basement. She was crazy, so I locked her in there," Fos explained."Heh… too bad, I haven't seen her in a long time," Kori said, and Fos just rolled his eyes, fed up with Kori's faked hospitality."Okay... I'll greet her first. I'll be a disobedient child if I don't greet his mother when I get home, won'
