Chapter 223 Smells so good, can I drink your blood? —Eve & Zero 1
"What...what's this taste like?"
Eve, who was "hunting for food," was suddenly interrupted by a faint but domineering fragrance.
She was so frightened by the human she had just thrown away that she fainted. The human, who had just sucked a few mouthfuls of blood, wiped the corner of his lips and set off to find the source of the fragrance.
Perhaps because of the distance, by the time she arrived, the fight was already nearing its end.
It's more accurate to call it a one-sided massacre than a fight.
Faced with the Witch Clan's heavenly fire, the Blood Clan had absolutely no power to resist and was burned to ashes in an instant.
Eve hid behind a tree, her lips pressed tightly together, her nerves on edge, her gaze fixed intently on both of them, filled with frustration.
You can't blame her, since she's never met a member of the witch clan before, let alone smelled their blood.
To everyone's surprise, he was just as domineering as rumored. Even from such a distance, he made her lose her temper and rush over without a care in the world.
Now look what's happened; she's already smelled that odor, and her life is about to end.
If she is discovered, she may not even be able to drink human blood anymore.
"Ouch, it's so hot—"
Eve stared in horror at the vampires being burned alive.
She had seen him recently; he was one of the top purebloods, but he was completely powerless against that witch.
She had only heard about it before, but now she has a deep understanding of the difference in strength between the vampires and the witches.
Then someone like her, who has absolutely no fighting ability, is even less of a threat.
She held her breath, not daring to make the slightest sound.
The battle ended quickly, and just when she thought she had escaped death, the shaman suddenly looked in her direction and said, "Stop hiding, come out."
Eve didn't dare move; who knew if he was deliberately bluffing her?
"If the one hiding behind the tree doesn't come out soon, I'm going to make my move."
Now there was no way to avoid it. Eve swallowed nervously, her mind racing, and slowly walked out, saying, "No, don't kill me, I, I, I am human."
"people?"
"Yes, I am a person. You can believe me if you don't. You can touch my body temperature. Yes, I still have a heartbeat."
The superpower that was usually useless became a tool for survival today. Eve raised her hand tremblingly, indicating that he could touch her hand to feel it.
The shaman retracted the flame that had been leaping in his hand into his body and stepped closer to her.
As they got closer, Eve desperately suppressed the urge to run away and closed her eyes in fear.
To everyone's surprise, the sorcerer bypassed her, went to where she had been hiding, dug up a plant, applied it to his hands, and then smiled gently at her.
"Don't be afraid, I don't kill people. How did you get here? If I hadn't been worried about burning this Spirit Healing Flower, I would have mistaken you for a vampire and injured you."
"me……"
Having survived, Eve opened her eyes. Her heart, disguised as human, was still pounding rapidly. Her fingers, which had been resting at her sides, unconsciously recoiled, and she nervously clenched her fists.
“I was brought here because of the blood of one of the people you just killed…”
“Vampire demons.” Eve quickly corrected herself, remembering that humans seemed to like calling their vampire race demons.
"Yeah, he was just about to suck my blood when he suddenly ran over here and brought me with him. I was so scared that I hid, but I didn't expect you to find me."
“You hid very well, but unfortunately your shadow held you back.” He smiled reassuringly at Eve and pointed to her feet.
Eve looked down, her voice tinged with resentment: "So that's how it is."
"Alright, you're safe now. Go home quickly so your family can rest assured."
He walked back to where he started, dragged a basket full of herbs from behind the rock, hoisted it onto his back, and prepared to leave.
For some reason, Eve's mouth suddenly beat her to her brain and called out to him, "Wait, sir, may I follow you?"
He looked back with some surprise: "Following me?"
"Correct."
Their lives were saved, but the vampires' deep-seated desire for witch blood once again took over.
Although it was a sudden idea, Eve found it increasingly suitable the more she thought about it.
It is often said that opportunities and risks go hand in hand.
Since he hasn't suspected her identity for the time being, she might as well stay by his side and maybe even find a chance to drink the blood of the witch clan.
Who can resist such an enticing aroma?
Eve glanced discreetly at the wound on his fingertip, which had already congealed after being treated with herbs.
She quickly prepared a speech in her mind, recalling her experience with a blood slave she had once drunk, and after some revisions, she said:
“I was originally the daughter of a wealthy family, but unfortunately my parents died early, and the family property was taken over by distant relatives.”
“They not only took my family’s money, but they also beat and scolded me at every turn, and even offered me up to that devil.”
"I was lucky this time, I ran into an adult and escaped this calamity, but if I go back, and there's a next time, who knows what might happen..."
She feigned dejection and lowered her eyes, then looked at the witch with expectant eyes: "So, can you take me away?"
He remained silent for a moment, still not agreeing, but instead took out all the silver coins he had from his bag and handed them to Eve:
"I don't have much money on hand right now. Take this first. If it's not enough, come back with me and get some more. From now on, live your life well, okay?"
Eve bit her lip slightly, looked at him timidly, her eyes reddening, revealing helplessness and vulnerability as she said:
“But, but I’m still scared. What if I encounter their kind again? Will they retaliate against me? I’ll definitely be much safer by your side. Please agree to let me follow you.”
"This..." he seemed a little hesitant, "I usually live a rather casual life, and you might not be used to it if you come with me."
"I'm not afraid! I can do it, please take me in, sir." Seeing that he seemed to be wavering, Eve immediately pressed her advantage.
“Alright, you can stay with me for a while. If you don’t like it, you can leave anytime, and this money is yours.” The witch handed the bag to Eve.
"I...I don't need it." Eve lowered her head to hide her disgust, wanting to return it to the witch.
For vampires, coins are the most useless thing. They have so many gold coins that they can throw them around for fun, let alone these few silver coins.
The shaman did not take it back, but said, "Take it. I don't have anything for girls to use. If you really want to stay, you can use it to buy some things you might need on a daily basis."
"Well, alright, thank you, sir." Since he's said so, she'll accept it.
"From now on, you can call me Zero."
“Okay, Zero,” Eve replied. “My name is Eve.”
Zero found a thick tree branch and handed it to her: "It's not far from where I live, but the road is a bit difficult to walk on. It will be better to use the branch for support."
Seeing that Eve had a firm grip, Zero controlled his speed and led the way at a leisurely pace, half a step ahead and to her left, completely unaware of the lustful gaze that kept falling on his neck from behind.
