Vol V Chapter 40
"Dean baby, open the door quickly." Aruba anxiously knocked on the door.
"What is it?" The drowsy Dean said impatiently,"Aruba, what are you doing so early in the morning?”
Aruba waved the piece of paper in his hand and said,""A few days ago, the two kids from the Demon Hunters Association received their invitations.”
"Really, come in quickly." Dean picked up the invitation letter and looked at it carefully. "This is great. Maria and I have been looking for her family, but we haven't heard from them for so many years. We suspect that they are under house arrest by the President. We tried to infiltrate the Demon Hunters Association a few times, but we didn't succeed. This time, their family has all come to the ancestral house, so we can sneak in and gather information.”
"That's right. That's why I agreed to their invitation.”Aruba hurriedly took credit." When their carriage comes to pick us up, we'll go and scout for information together. By the way, what does Maria's family look like? How many people are there? They hadn't seen each other for so many years.。。。。。”
"Who said I'm bringing you along?”Dean interrupted the nagging Aruba.
"My name is written on the invitation, of course I have to go.”he said anxiously.
"It's not like there's a portrait of you on it," Dean said casually."I'll just say I'm Aruka."”
"Alright, I want to go too. Maria, take me with you.”Aruba turned to look at Maria. He knew who he should ask for help at this time.
Maria smiled knowingly." Dean, bring him along. Let him learn something." Anyway, with the two of us here, he won't be in danger. Besides, the invitation letter states that there are three of us.”
"Thank you, Maria.”Aruba jumped up high.
On the day of the banquet, when Aruba dressed up, he no longer felt that Maria was a good person.
Pfff. Dean looked at Aruka's outfit and laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back. " Ahahah, this is too funny." Dean wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. "How is it, Miss Annitte? Please.”
Aruba's bright red lips said,""Teacher Dean, y-you're still making fun of me. I quit. I want to go back to being Aruda, and you can be Anniet.”It turned out that Maria had dressed up as a woman for Aruba.
At this moment, he was wearing a gorgeous dress. The fluffy skirt was decorated with lace. The tight-fitting top almost suffocated him. If it weren't for Maria's terrifying brute force, he wouldn't even be able to buckle it. He really didn't understand how these women usually endured these damn tight-fitting clothes.
Maria even put on a stunning heavy makeup for him. Her originally beautiful face became even more dazzling. She pinched his face hard and said,""You, this face, this skin, it's enough to make men and women go crazy for you. I'm so envious.”
"Let go, let go, it hurts." Aruba rubbed his face and said," I quit. You're all bullying me. Why don't you be Annie, Dean baby?”
"Me?" Dean was dressed in a black evening dress and looked very handsome. He pointed at himself and stood up."Look at my figure. Have you ever seen such a burly girl? Besides, you're the only one who can wear Maria's clothes, so this mission is yours unless you don't want to go.”
" You-you-I-I-Ai," Aruya pouted.
"You look very good now. Even I can't help but fall in love with you. Later, at the banquet, you have to give a lot of attention. It's best if you attract everyone's attention so that it'll be convenient for us to do things. Got it, beauty?”Dean deliberately patted Aruba's buttocks.
"Ah!" Aruba jumped up and said angrily,""You, Maria, don't you care about him?"
This time, Dean's ears suffered." Aiyo, Maria, I didn't do it on purpose. I know I was wrong. Stop pinching."”
The white ancestral home of the Belmont Family was magnificent and solemn. At this moment, the house was already filled with people who had come to attend the banquet. The huge chandelier and candlestick lit up the room as if it was daytime. Licht looked around the crowd, wondering why Annie was still not here. He waited anxiously. "Brother, I'll go outside and take a look."
"That girl would have come long ago. It's useless for you to be anxious.”Before Zuster could finish his sentence, Licht had already disappeared.
There was a commotion in the crowd. The arrival of a beautiful lady made everyone praise her endlessly.
" Who is this girl? She's so beautiful." "Look at her temperament. She must be a noble.”The crowd discussed animatedly.
Aruba tried his best not to trip over his feet, which were wearing women's shoes, while maintaining an elegant smile to greet the people.
"Everyone." Freddy announced loudly. "This Holy Whip has not been worthy of its owner for decades. Today, Zuster of the Belmont Family finally proved that he has the ability to control it. I believe that after such a cruel trial, everyone should think that he is the worthy successor of the Holy Whip.”He handed the Holy Whip to Zuster and quickly bent down to receive it.
Tonight, he was wearing a red gown with silver hair and red clothes. He was elegant and became the focus of all the girls present.
"Now, I announce that Zuster has officially become the successor of the Holy Whip.”Freddy publicly announced the heir of the Belmont family.
The room was filled with applause. "Thank you." Zust raised his Holy Whip and said loudly,""Everyone, I will try my best to lead everyone to eliminate all the vampires.”Applause, cheers, and the screams of the girls rose and fell.
The band played melodious music and people slid onto the dance floor.
"Everyone, enjoy yourselves." Freddy's voice had just fallen. A group of men immediately gathered around Aruka and invited him to dance. What are Dean and Maria doing? Why aren't they out yet? Helplessly, Aruba held a man's hand and slid onto the dance floor.
"Miss, you're really too beautiful." Aruba couldn't figure out how many dance partners had praised him like this. He tried his best to resist the urge to punch and kick this guy. Why were all men the same? They were simply animals in heat.
"Do you mind?" Freddy invited Aruka, and his male partner immediately picked up another lady. Wasn't this guy the one who spoke just now? He seemed to be someone with a lot of power in the Demon Hunters Association, so he could ask on behalf of Maria.
Aruba smiled brightly at Freddy. He was stunned. "Miss, forgive me for being presumptuous, but can you tell me your name?”
"I'll make an uh-huh." Aruba cleared his throat and said in a high-pitched voice,""My name is Annie."
"What a beautiful name.”
Sigh, here it comes again. Aruba helplessly stopped his flattery.
"I'm Freddy, the president of the Demon Hunters Association," Freddy said proudly.”
The guild leader's eyes lit up. "Ah, President, I've heard a lot about you. I've always admired you.”
"Is that so?" Freddy hugged him happily.
"I heard that the Holy Maiden of the Demon Hunters Association can possess a Sacred Body that will never die or grow old.”asked Aruba.
Freddy nodded.”
Aruba hurriedly followed the topic and asked,""Then President, do you think I can become the Saintess of the Demon Hunters Association?”
"This Saintess is chosen by the previous Saintess. Only she knows how to take over.”
Aruba turned around elegantly and asked,""I see. Where is the previous Holy Maiden?”
"She, she left the Demon Hunters Association for some matters.”Freddy said casually.
"How can this be? Where can we find her? Oh, right, I heard that her family is still in the Demon Hunters Association.”In a moment of impatience, Aruya gave himself away.
"Where did you hear that from? Why are you looking for them?”Freddy looked at Aruka warily.
"I-I…" Just as Aruka was unable to justify himself, someone came to his rescue.
A blue shadow moved quickly, and Licht managed to avoid the women's pursuit. She really couldn't understand why her brother was always pursued by girls while she was always favored by middle-aged women.
"Oh, so you're already here, Annitte. I was waiting for you outside. Fortunately, the guard saw your invitation. Ah, you, you…" Licht stared at Aruka in surprise.
"Licht, my dear, I've been looking for you. I'm sorry, Mr. President.”Without any explanation, Aruka pulled Licht, who was still standing there, away.
"Let go of me." In a quiet corner, Lichter finally came back to his senses and shook off Aruka's hand. "Who are you, you're not even Annie, you…"
"Shh, keep your voice down. Can't you tell who I am?" Aruba covered his mouth and said.”
Licht stared at him closely.”He widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Oh!" Licht pushed away Aruka's hand."What the hell are you doing?" Dressed like this, I invited you to a banquet, not a masquerade party. Where is she?"
" It's complicated. It's a long story." Seeing Zuster looking over, Aluka quickly buried his face in Lichter's chest.
"A-Aluka, you're not dressed like this because of me, are you? I'm telling you, I'm not interested in you at all.”Licht said hurriedly.
Aluka raised his head and stole a glance at Zuster, who was walking away. He was not as gullible as this fool. He pushed Lichter away in disgust. "What did you say about who would be interested in you? Only an idiot would like you.”
A sharp whistle came from afar. This was Dean's secret signal. It seemed that the matter was done. "I have something to do, so I'll be leaving first." Aruba slipped away like Chen Feng.
"Hey, where's Anne? Am I that bad?" Licht asked loudly.
"Teacher Dean, how's Maria's progress?”
"We heard that my family had appeared in the neighboring country. Dean and I will immediately set off to take a look.”Maria said anxiously.
Aruba nagged,"Got it. Baby Dean, you have to be careful on the road.”
" You'd better take care of yourself. When I come back, I'll check on your swordsmanship. You must work hard," Dean said as he gave Aruba some homework.
Aruba watched them leave. After a whole night, he was hungry. He took off the bread from his chest and started eating.
The weather had been getting hotter and hotter since June. The big tree outside Aruba's house was already luxuriant, and the birds on the tree were singing.
"This is for you." Caterina placed a dagger in Aruba's hand.
"What is this?" Aruba opened the scabbard. It was a red dagger. "Why did Caterina give me this?”
"It's your birthday tomorrow. I wish you a happy birthday.”Caterina kissed Aruba's face and ran away quickly with a red face.
My birthday is on the 17th of June. How could I forget? Ha, I'll be 16 tomorrow, and I'll be an adult.
On the day of his birthday, Aruba felt that something was wrong when he woke up early in the morning. What's wrong with me? Why do I feel so cold in June? He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and cold air was gushing out of his body. It was as if there was a force that he had never felt before crashing into his body.
He wrapped himself tightly in the blanket, but he couldn't drive away the cold. His teeth started chattering uncontrollably.
"Aruchi, it's so late and you're still not up.”He usually woke up early, but he actually lazed in bed. Felicia curiously pushed the door open and entered.
"Baby, are you feeling unwell? Your face is so pale.”Felicia looked at her son with concern. She put her hand on Aruba's forehead. "It's so cold. Son, are you sick?”
"I'm fine. You know my body. I've always been like this. I-I have a birthday appointment with a friend. I'm leaving.”He didn't want his mother to worry about him, so he forced himself up and went out.
The warm sunlight outside the house didn't dispel the coldness in his body at all. Instead, it made him feel thirsty, as if there was an indescribable thirst surging in his body. A few boys were playing a game in the open space behind the house. They chased each other with wooden swords in their hands.
A little boy fell to the ground. His knee was scratched by a hard stone and blood flowed out. He had never smelled such a sweet fragrance before. He took a deep breath to find the source of the fragrance. Finally, his gaze was fixed on the boy's knee. The red liquid that flowed down his calf was so tempting. Why had I never noticed it before? It was so beautiful and irresistible.
Aruba kept swallowing his saliva, and his footsteps involuntarily moved toward the boy. He couldn't help but want to taste the fragrance." Ah-Aluka, what's wrong with you? You can't do such a terrible thing." He tried his best to regain his rationality, but his body still couldn't help but go there.
"Little brother, let me take a look for you.”Without any explanation, Aruyi grabbed the boy's leg in his hand and stroked the wound with his fingers. Smells so good! He sniffed the blood on his hand and finally couldn't help but put his finger into his mouth. It was so sweet. He had never tasted anything so delicious.
When the boys saw this, they were all frightened and ran away. Only the injured boy was held tightly by Aruba. He struggled with all his might, which made Aruya even more excited. He simply put his mouth on the wound and sucked on it. "Wahhh." The boy's cries were like music to him at this moment.
"Oh my god. What are you doing?" Felicia's voice finally brought Aruka back to his senses.
"Mother, I-I…" He looked at the blood on his hands and tasted the taste in his mouth.
The boy cried and ran away. "What's going on? How could I be like this? Mom, what's wrong with me? I just feel so cold. Why did I suck his blood? What should I do? What should I do?”Aruya looked at his mother in panic.
"Ah Lu, my poor child.”Felicia hugged him helplessly and helped him home. It's all my fault. I made him like this. If I didn't know Dracula, you wouldn't be cursed like this.
Zooey, who was standing under a big tree outside the house, smiled triumphantly.。。。。。
