Strange things

- Of course.

Selina slightly closed her eyes and adjusted a little. The Yeg smell on her body immediately disappeared. But in her heart, she could not help but pour out countless doubts.

At the same time, the Yeg smell is a characteristic smell of vampires, and this type of smell cannot be detected by humans. They are only used so that fellows can recognize each other and, at the same time, through the smell, know the level of origin of the vampire so that there is a way to address and behave appropriately in a clear hierarchy.

What is that? Could those monstrous forms also be bloodsuckers? But they, don't have the Yeg smell... Looking at this slow appearance, it's like they are not vampires belonging to the noble class that can remove the Yeg smell. And the smell of humans on them is still so strong, it's human by flesh and bones. 

Moreover, how do vampires work as minions for humans? It's an insult!

After Selina made the Yeg smell of her disappear, the strange gatekeepers did not approach them anymore. They slowly turned their backs, then went back to the old place, continuing to stand there lifeless. Seeing that, Oralie quickly pulled Selina's sleeve, pulling her through the town gate.

As soon as she passed the town gate, Selina asked Oralie:

- How do those humans smell my Yeg smell? Also, their faces are so weird!

Oralie let out a breath. Her face was lucky, as if he had just escaped a life. She turned her head to look behind her, perhaps feeling that she was safe. She stopped, only taking small steps. Hearing Selina's question, Oralie immediately turned her head to look. Her beautiful face appeared a little thought as if she was thinking.

After a moment, Oralie raised her hand and touched her head, as if trying to get herself to remember more details. Finally, she replied softly:

- They are special gatekeepers. They are puppets made by the Silver Cross Guild, can smell the vampire smell - the Yeg smell, and also have great fighting ability. Hmm… That's all I know… Well, their claws can secrete some kind of poison, which eats away at vampires' bodies, and that kind of wound can't even be healed. If you have a fight with them in the future, you have to be careful!

Selina lowered her eyes slightly, her ash-gray eyes flickering with brooding.

The Silver Cross Guild, Selina didn't expect them to still exist.

Moreover, to be able to produce such annoying hounds, it seems to have expanded more than before and has become a great threat to the vampires.

But Selina turned her head to look at the strange gatekeepers - hideous puppets took a few breaths and felt it carefully.

It's the smell of humans; they're humans, or rather, made from humans.

Are these hideous hounds made of the living, or the dead?

Selina curled her lips into a sneer. Her eyes were cold as if frozen in ice. She raised her voice and mocked:

- Ha ha, you humans have turned your kind into weapons now?

Oralie saw that Selina was turning to look at puppets, so she watched too. Then, when Oralie heard the person next to her say this sentence, her blue eyes flickered slightly, then she slightly frowned and said:

- The Silver Cross has announced that these puppets are made from death row inmates who deserve to die. But even so, it's so inhumane to do so...

The more Oralie spoke, the weaker her voice seemed, as if she was thinking about something. Suddenly, seemingly remembering something, Oralie coldly said:

- The plan to make this puppet was proposed by Titus's faction. Perhaps his faction has members who are the same type as him, the same, who don't care about other people's lives.

Speaking of which, Oralie's clear voice was also tinged with hatred. Selina, still watching puppets, suddenly raised her voice and asked:

- Is your enemy a member of the Silver Cross?

Oralie nodded slightly and replied:

- Yes, he is also a person of great authority there.

Oralie's voice was somewhat cold, tinged with resentment, but then, those ugly feelings also quickly dissipated. Because of her curiosity, she asked Selina:

- Do you also know the Silver Cross?

Selina nodded slightly and then replied, her voice faintly amusing:

- Of course, I know, that Silver Cross Guild has been around for too long.

Oralie nodded as if she wanted to say something to start a conversation, but then didn't know what to say, so she just kept quiet. She walked a distance, and suddenly no one was behind her anymore. The other person had lost track in the crowded sea of ​​people.

- Sir Clayden? Where are you?

Oralie looked around and finally saw a figure standing in front of a store.

 Selina was staring intently inside.

Oralie immediately rushed over. At this time, the other person had entered the store, standing in front of a glass case full of porcelain dolls.

Oralie followed her and saw that what Selina was staring at was a very beautiful doll. The doll has bright red lips, just like this vampire's red lips. The doll has long, straight brown hair, and her eyes are adorned with green, which is a bright color, but this bright color gives it an extremely cold look. The combination of arrogance and nobility emanating from it was beautiful. The more delicately crafted clothes that brought out that pretentiousness, the more nobility emanated from them.

Selina stared at it, her ash-gray eyes exuding passion, Oralie saw this and asked curiously:

- Sir, if you like it, I can buy it for you!

Selina waved her hand, showing no need. She retracted her passionate gaze and replied coldly:

- I can buy it myself.

At this time, the owner of the shop had arrived. She had a gentle face, and kindly asked the customer who had just arrived:

- Welcome to my store! What do you want to buy?

Selina pointed at the other doll and said:

- I want to buy it. How much is it?

Mrs. Adam smiled softly and replied:

- You are very lucky. Our shop is having a sale on porcelain products. Now, this item only costs three hundred silver Viphedas!

Three hundred silver Viphedas?

Three hundred silver Viphedas?

Three hundred silver Viphedas?

Selina could not help but suspect that she had heard wrong. To be more certain, she asked again:

- What did you say? Can you say it again?

Mrs. Adam still said, softly, in a very gentle voice:

- This item costs three hundred silver Viphedas.

Oh.

Humans are truly barbaric. I thought that after many years, the amount of ney would also increase a lot, but she did not think that it would increase to this extent. It must be known that, in the past, porcelain dolls of this type were often sold for three bronze Viphedas, and only a few high-class and precious ones could be sold at more expensive prices. What's more, this shop is so rickety and small, I didn't expect it to be this expensive.

One silver coin is equal to three hundred and fifty bronze Viphedas, that is to say, this one doll is worth one hundred and five thousand bronze Viphedas.

The price has indeed escalated, but even if she takes out all her possessions, you won't be able to buy them. Selina sighed softly, her ash-gray eyes showing a bit of sadness.

Mrs. Adam was originally very welcoming, but seeing this look on Selina's face, the gentle expression on her face couldn't help but break.

As there were no customers at the store all morning, as soon as the first customer came to visit, she was overjoyed, hoping that it would go smoothly, unexpectedly like this.

The fire of anger burned smoldering, flickering in Adam's head, making her uncomfortable. Although she also knew that she was angry at the fish, it was bad luck to enter and ask like this and then not buy it. What's more, this is still the first customer of today. She took a few breaths in and out, trying to stay calm so as not to vent her anger on this guest, and then said:

- If you don't want to buy it, please come back.

Oralie looked at Selina's gloomy face, and heard the shop owner's farewell sentence, she quickly said:

- No, we still buy it. Please help me wrap the porcelain doll. I will pay now.

Saying that she took out another bag from inside her body. Oralie then reached into her pocket and extracted a gleaming gold coin. Selina only saw Oralie put on a very hateful smile and said:

- No need to return the change.
