Chapter 64: Do you want it?

Lucy base.

"Are you happy now, Karen?" Lucy spoke with a calm face.

"Yeah yeah." Though Karen's face was smiling, veins throbbing in her head could be seen.

"Nice job hiring a mercenary to do an important task... Wow, good job! You really are a genius! Einstein would be embarrassed to know that there is anyone with such a large amount of IQ." She started to clap her hands.

"You don't need to talk like that. Johnny is trustworthy."

A vein popped in Karen's head, she hits the table with a crash and screams:

"IN WHICH WORLD IS A MERCENARY TRUSTWORTHY!?

"" Lucy puts his hand to his ear. Her voice was so loud that his senses were overwhelmed for a few seconds.

"Take easy, Take easy, Karen. Johnny is trustworthy; I can promise you that. I've worked with him a few times, and he won't say anything."

"" Karen was almost bursting with rage again.

Sigh!

She sighs and looks at Lucy with cold eyes.

"You know what? I'm done!" Karen left the office.

"Huh?"

"W-Wait! What will you do!?" Lucy got up from his chair and ran after Karen.

"I will speed up the ritual. We have all the necessary ingredients, and the only thing left that we need is the blood of a noble vampire," She takes a vial of blood and shows it to Lucy.

"And I already have that ingredient."

"But what about me?"

"Fuck you," Karen held up her middle finger at Lucy,

"You never listen to me! Just get another vial of noble vampire blood." Karen's instincts were tingling like crazy, she had a feeling that if she didn't rush the ritual, she would never be able to complete what she wanted so badly.

"Eh?" Lucy didn't expect this answer; he puts a hand on his chin; 'I pissed her off that much?'

"Boss!" A vampire ran beside Lucy.

"What?" Lucy looked at his subordinate.

"They are here! The noble vampires!"

"...Huh...?" Lucy's face went paler than should be possible for a vampire.

...

Looking at a coffin that was covered in blood, Karen picks up the vial and pours the contents of the vial into the coffin.

When the contents inside the vial fell into the bloody coffin, the magic circle under the coffin began to glow crimson red. Seeing this, Karen said, "Sucess."

Soon she starts to undress, and after taking off her clothes and becoming the way she came into the world, she enters the coffin:

"With this, I will be reborn." She lies down in the blood and closes the coffin.

The moment she closed the coffin, the magic circle grew and covered the entire room, and soon the crimson light that was emanating from the magic circle grew stronger. If anyone entered the room, they wouldn't be able to see anything because of the light that was entirely blurring their vision.

...

Lucy was walking briskly along his base, "This is too soon! This is too soon! This is too soon! That wasn't the deal!"

"Where are they!?" He yelled as he opened the hall door.

"Kakakaka, Hello, Lucy~" Lucy looked at the man.

He had messy black hair, pale skin, red eyes, and a creepy smiling expression on his face; the first impression Lucy had of this man was that he had several screws loose in his head...

"Einer Horseman, you're early."

"Yeah~, my twin brother and I were looking forward to coming to the human world, you know?" He started laughing again as if he found something funny.

"He doesn't seem to be anxious," Lucy said, and then he looked at the other man who was sitting on the couch while drinking blood from a teacup.

Like Einer, this man looked similar to the younger twin, the only difference being that he dressed more politely, and his hair was straight.

Bright blood-red eyes, pale skin, shoulder-length straight black hair, and an expression that showed disinterest in everything.

He was a man who had impeccable noble etiquette, but at the same time, he seemed to be dead inside. That was Lucy's impression of this man.

"Zwei Horseman..." Lucy didn't know what to say, unlike the younger brother who was easy to talk to, this man was simply impossible to understand what he was thinking.

The man looks at Lucy and nods, "Hello," He spoke in a dry tone, then he turned his face and started drinking his tea.

"Kakakaka, ignore my brother, you know how he is, it may not look like it, but he's anxious, right?" Einer appears beside Zwei and forces a smile on his face, "See?"

"" Lucy didn't know how to react when he saw Zwei's blank expression.

Einer lets go of his brother's face, "Let's talk business..."

Everyone could feel a little pressure coming from underground.

"Oh?" Einer displayed a curious face.

"Below," Zwei spoke and drank the tea again; he didn't look interested.

"Looks like you guys rushed through the ritual," Einer spoke with the same goofy grin on his face.

"My partner was anxious, and she decided to rush the ritual." Lucy tried to comment indifferently.

But Einer realized that Lucy was holding himself back from going underground.

"Kakakaka, let's go down. I want to see the results."

"Okay," Lucy nodded since he was also curious.

Zwei got up from the couch and started walking ahead.

"Hmmmhmmm~" Einer approached his brother and started making sounds like he was singing a song.

...

Karen opened the coffin and left, she quickly started checking her body, but she immediately noticed something important, nothing changed!

"What happened!?" She was trying to figure out what went wrong, she was so focused on her thoughts that she didn't notice someone approaching her.

"Kakakaka, are you disappointed~? Nee, Nee. Are you disappointed?"

"!!!" Unconsciously, she made a fist and attacked the man's face.

But her fist was held by another man:

"Stronger," Zwei spoke.

"Yeah yeah. She got stronger~" Einer just laughed at everything.

"Did the ritual work!?" Lucy asked as he looked quite anxious.

"I don't know-" She started to speak but was interrupted.

"The ritual failed~" Einer chuckled.

"Impossible. We did everything right." Lucy couldn't believe it.

He looked at both of them with the same smile on his face and said:

"Didn't you think it was too easy? Steal a sacred artifact from the church, ask a witch to perform a ritual, fill the coffin with the blood of the innocents, and use the blood of a random noble vampire, then you put all those ingredients in the blender, and Boom! You become a noble vampire?"

"" The two were silent, now that they thought about it, was it really that easy to change races?

"Right? Of course, it's not easy. Are you underestimating the noble vampires?" With the same silly smile on his face, he spoke in a serious voice:

"You might be called 'vampires', but you're not the real vampires. We are totally different species, and you are a subspecies of us, a flaw, a product that was created only for use as a weapon... You are no better than the Ghouls."

"" Lucy and Karen clench their fists tightly.

"...But~" He returned to the playful voice, "You were successful this time."

"Huh?"

"The ritual was correct. After all, you got a little stronger, right?"

"But you didn't get reborn because the main ingredient was missing."

Einer claps his hands, and soon a tall man appears beside the twins holding a briefcase in his hand.

"!!!" When did he get here? Karen and Lucy thought.

"The ritual to become a noble vampire is easy, but getting the last ingredient is an impossible task." He opens the briefcase, and soon everyone can see a small vial of blood.

"!!!" By the time he opens the briefcase, Karen and Lucy's throats are starting to go dry, they are looking at the bottle with thirsty eyes, but there is also a bit of fear in their eyes.

They were afraid of a small vial of blood!

"T-That is..." Lucy stammered, he didn't know what that blood was, but one thing he was sure of, he needed that blood!

"T-This blood" Karen was thinking the same thing as Lucy.

Einer took the bottle out and showed it to them: "The blood of the king... It's not the blood of his descendants, it's not the blood of his wives, it's his blood. The king's blood. The Progenitor, the strongest creature on Earth, the being that has been walking this earth for over 5000 years... That's the last ingredient."

"Do you want~?"

"We want it~" Lucy and Karen reached out and reached for the bottle.

"Do you really want it?" He kept smiling as if he was luring two little rabbits into a trap,

"Yes, we want it."

BAAAAAAM!

He slammed the case closed with a loud bang!

"But I refuse!"

"..."

"KAKAKAKAKAKAKA" Einer started laughing madly, and he looked like he was enjoying himself.
