Conquering The Novel

Chapter 50 My Fiancée Is A Vampire.

Silvia was called upon by one of the guards for some goods-related problems as soon as we heard the take-off announcement, and she reluctantly went.

"I will be back in a jiffy, so wait a moment for me, Ares," she said and glared at Irethiel, who was now in crow form, before leaving.

I let out a big sigh as she walked away.

There were numerous references to Silvia Ursula throughout the novel. Precisely because she was a...VAMPIRE!.

"...."

Yes, She is a Vampire, and in the novel, she was one of the members of the organization "SHADOWS."

Along with Helena, she wreaked havoc on the Adventurer association in one of the scenarios. She also went up against Lucas several times and acted as an antagonist.

And that's not even the worst part; getting involved with her will put me on the radar of churches.

Every Kingdom worships a different Goddess or God, and Churches were built in their honor.

They do not all worship the same God or Goddess. As a result, conflicts between the Churches were not uncommon.

However, they all have a natural foe that they despise even more than the demons.

And, of course, the one they despise the most is...' VAMPIRES.'

Because vampires can easily convert humans into their kind and have unnaturally long lifespans.

Even after all of the demon lords had been sealed, the churches were uneasy because vampires roamed freely.

And, frighteningly, they became somewhat immune to their weaknesses over time.

If this continues, the Vampires will be at the top of the Hierarchy, leaving humans and demons in their wake.

However, the vampires have become scarce as a result of being hunted from generation to generation, and they are now keeping a low profile for the time being.

But vampires can turn humans into their kind at any time by luring them with the promise of immortality, but the converted vampires are not strong enough and are known as thin blood.

Most noble vampires, however, prefer not to convert humans, because they despise thin-blood vampires for being weaker.

So, if the Church suspects someone of being a vampire or working with them, they will annihilate them mercilessly, whether they are a child or an adult.

She may have no choice but to join the organization because, sooner or later, the church will track her down, and they will pursue her all over the continent.

Irethiel spoke up while I was still thinking.

"She picked up on my presence."

"Yes, She did." I agreed.

Because I saw her glaring at Irethiel before she left.

"What do you intend to do with her now? Isn't she even more trouble than I am?" Irethiel remarked while giggling.

"At least you know you're a bother," I said, staring at her.

But I couldn't argue with her because it was true. On one hand, Irethiel is luring the demon lords toward me, and now Silvia is putting me on the Churches' radar.

'Won't I now be pursued by both demons and humans?' I reflected.

"...."

"... Life is hard," I muttered inadvertently.

"It's always been that way," Irethiel responded.

I have no idea what the future holds for me; as time passes, I seem to be attracting problems like a magnet.

After reconsidering, I came to prefer the Yanderes'. At the very least, they will not abandon me in my hour of need, right?

"... I think I've lost my mind," I muttered while getting on the bed and closing my eyes.

"What a pitiful guy," Irethiel muttered to herself as she stared at Ares.

***

While I was sleeping, a sharp pain in my neck jolted me awake.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I noticed Silvia on top of me, sucking blood from my neck.

!?

When she noticed my movements, she came to a halt and looked at me, her mouth still stained with my blood.

"Did I wake you up?" she exclaimed.

I just stared at her with a stoic expression and pushed her away while one of my hands touched my teeth-marked and blood-splattered neck.

"Don't worry, you won't turn into a vampire," Silvia said as she felt my glare on her.

"...."

I turned toward Irethiel, curious as to what she was doing while my blood was being sucked.

And I noticed her smiling at me. Don't ask me how I knew the crow was smiling; I just knew she was.

"She's right, you won't turn into a Vampire, so don't worry," she said telepathically.'

'...For now at least,' she thought inwardly.

After hearing her confirmation, I returned my attention to Silvia, who was cleaning the strain of blood from her mouth with her sleeves when she spoke.

"To be honest, I was concerned about how I would reveal my identity to you. And I was also afraid of what you would do if you found out I was a vampire."

"What if you fear me and reveal my identity to the Church? I kept my distance from you because I had many reservations." She paused for a moment before turning to face Irethiel.

"But, even though I shouldn't have been happy when I saw a demon next to you, I was. If you could keep a demon beside you, you wouldn't be afraid of a vampire, would you?" She stated cheerfully.

"... So, what did you do to me just now?" I asked, ignoring her last statement.

"Oh, that? I was attempting to perform a ritual but failed. I believe I should make more preparations for the ritual." She said casually.

"...."

"What kind of ritual was she attempting to perform?" Using telepathy, I questioned Irethiel.

"She was trying to bond with you," Irethiel explained.

"Bond with me?" I inquired.

"How should I put it? It's as if she was trying to connect with you, like tying a knot in human language." Irethiel explained.

Despite my understanding of demonic language, I was still unable to understand most of what she was saying.

"What do you mean by tying a knot, like marriage?" I inquired.

"Yeah, you can put it that way...I guess," she stated and turned her head away.

'She's terrible at explaining things.' I thought to myself inwardly.

"How come I didn't turn into a Vampire after being bitten by one?" I inquired Irethiel.

"Vampires drain a regular human's blood and replace it with some of their own Vitae or Venom. As a result, humans turn into vampires. If they do not transfer their Vitae or Venom into the humans, they will not become a Vampire." Irethiel explained.

"Yes, She's right." Silvia nodded and agreed with Irethiel's explanation.

"Huh?" I was perplexed to hear her because I was telepathically conversing with Irethiel. So she couldn't possibly hear us.

"I can hear your telepathic conversation with that demon because of my skill." She clarified when she noticed my puzzled expression.

"So, what was the point of whatever ritual you were performing?" I inquired.

"Because after bonding with you, only your blood could quench my thirst. But don't worry, I'll only be taking a tiny amount of your blood every day." She explained.

"Isn't that a drawback for you, because you could satisfy your hunger with anyone's blood if the ritual didn't exist?" I inquired.

"You're not exactly wrong, but if I'm bonded to you, I can be satisfied by just a small amount of your blood, otherwise it will take me around 10 blood bags to quench my thirst, and I don't want to drink anyone else's blood anymore except yours," she explained.

I turned to face Irethiel, who nodded in agreement.

"Do you believe that demons' words are more important than mine? This makes me angry." Silvia expressed her dissatisfaction and pouted.

"It's because she's my servant, and if something bad happens to me, it will also affect her. So, we're in the same boat right now." I explained.

"Wow, You made a demon your servant? As one would expect from my prince, "she stated proudly.

"Hey, demon servant, why don't you show me your true form?" she asked Irethiel.

Hearing her, Irethiel turned to face me, as if seeking my approval, so I nodded.

Irethiel soon returned to her original form, and Silvia's face distorted as she examined her and compared her body to Irethiel's.

When Irethiel saw Silvia's insecurities, a huge grin appeared on her face.

"A-Ares, Vampires become more beautiful as they age, and my body is still developing because I am young." She reasoned quickly.

"..."

'Why are you explaining that to me?' I wondered inwardly.
