Luo Wei looked at Evelyn with a complicated expression as she examined the physical condition of those "food reserves."
When she turned around and saw Luo Wei's conflicted and pained expression, she let out a cold laugh.
"What's wrong? Being personally embraced by me, becoming my Vampire Servant—"
"And escaping your weak human body to gain great power and longevity isn't enough?"
"To hell with that!" Luo Wei glared at her resentfully. Whoever wanted to be a vampire could be one, but he certainly didn't.
Then, pondering what Evelyn had just said, he suddenly realized something.
"Wait..."
"Vampire Servant? What's that?"
He asked suspiciously: "Is it also a vampire? Why haven't I heard of such a thing before?"
"It's the noble Vampire Clan, not mere vampires," Evelyn emphasized again.
"Fine, fine, Vampire Clan, Vampire Clan..." Luo Wei looked at her helplessly.
"Of course you don't know what a Vampire Servant is," Evelyn said proudly. "This is a secret known only to the seven most ancient original families of the Vampire Clan."
"And only those with direct bloodlines like myself can partake in it."
"Partake?" Luo Wei pondered this word, suddenly getting an strange feeling.
"Of course it's partaking~" She smiled at Luo Wei, "After I embrace you, you'll become my kind, and also my servant."
"And I," her smile deepened, "will have the right to control you!"
Luo Wei was shocked to his core.
He hadn't expected this. Becoming a vampire was bad enough, but he hadn't imagined he would also be controlled by Evelyn.
Like triggering PTSD, his body instinctively recalled those memories he never wanted to remember.
Those were the fears of being dominated by Helena just days ago...
And this so-called "Vampire Servant" was likely something even more terrifying...
Seeing Luo Wei's gradually stiffening expression, Evelyn giggled and whispered:
"Let me tell you another secret~"
"Where we come from, Vampire Servants are generally called 'Vampire Slaves'!"
"After the ritual is complete, you'll never be able to resist me. Only when I die will you die, only when I rejoice will you rejoice, our fates will be eternally bound together."
Luo Wei stared at her in shock.
Evelyn, as if trying to soothe his emotions, added with a smile.
"Don't worry, little Wei, don't think this name is similar to blood servants and confuse them."
She glanced disdainfully at the blood servants wandering in the hall, "They are just the lowest, mentally deficient servant species, while you—"
Evelyn's tone suddenly became passionate.
"Though a slave, you'll be my slave, the slave of an heir to the noble original family!"
"All vampire clans will view you as my representative, and your status will even be higher than the clan leaders of branch families~"
Luo Wei smiled bitterly, "Can I say no?"
"Why would you say no?" Evelyn's eyes widened.
"Don't you want this?"
Luo Wei remained silent.
Evelyn gently caressed Luo Wei's cheek, her eyes dancing with strange emotions.
"Teacher has had her eye on you since the first moment she saw you!"
"And after you showed me that smile..."
She began breathing excitedly, a suspicious flush rising on her snow-white skin.
"Teacher became completely captivated! Teacher wants you, little Wei, Teacher wants to make you completely mine!!"
Her whole body trembled, the flames in her gaze seeming ready to devour Luo Wei.
"How wonderful it will be! Throughout the long ages, little Wei will be with Teacher forever!!"
"Never to part!!"
Looking at the increasingly terrifying Evelyn before him, Luo Wei laughed bitterly in his heart.
Why did other people's dating games involve everyday school life, dating gentle childhood friends or cold beautiful ladies who suddenly appeared in their lives, going on dates, shopping, watching fireworks by the sea...
While his dating game involved battling wits with these twisted and terrifying women...
Even just staying alive was a luxury...
Am I some kind of monk? Why do I specifically attract these female monsters?
Luo Wei suddenly felt that putting all his points into "Charm" in his first playthrough was somewhat brainless...
At first, he had been quite proud, thinking he could easily conquer any woman and reach life's peak.
Well, he was about to reach life's peak now...
Luo Wei quietly glanced at Evelyn.
Just in a different way.
His least favorite way.
"Little Wei~"
Evelyn gripped Luo Wei's wrist tightly, her smile full of enchantment.
"It's getting late~"
Saying this, she completely ignored Luo Wei's resistant expression and forcibly led him out of the secret room, threading through the massive building until they reached a locked attic.
The attic was connected to the great hall by a long corridor, through which Luo Wei could see moonlight through stained glass windows.
Surprisingly, Saint Callen's haze had cleared tonight, and the moonlight outside was particularly bright.
And it was a full moon.
A beautiful round moon hung in the night sky, coating the city in a pale, clear radiance, the world silent.
Under the moonlight, Evelyn's smile was bewitching.
"This ritual can only be performed on a full moon night."
Seeing Luo Wei's expression, Evelyn patiently explained.
"Such a rare occasion," she smiled, "happening to appear right after our meeting."
"Little Wei, how could there be such a coincidence, isn't this romance created by fate for us?"
Luo Wei silently watched Evelyn in the moonlight.
"It is quite romantic..."
"If Teacher would give up that idea and quietly have a drink with me, I would find it even more romantic."
Evelyn curled her lips, "That's impossible."
Luo Wei was suddenly pulled into the attic by her, climbing up the spiral staircase step by step.
Though called an attic, it was about as tall as a watchtower. From the top floor room, through floor-to-ceiling windows, one could overlook the entire lower district of Saint Callen.
Although the illuminated lower district looked quite beautiful from above, he had no mood to appreciate the scenery.
As soon as Luo Wei entered the room, his attention was drawn to the huge magic circle drawn in blood on the floor.
Candlelight flickered, creating a quiet yet eerie atmosphere in the room.
"Let's begin, little Wei~"
Evelyn said excitedly.
"Wait a moment!"
"Hmm?" Evelyn looked at him puzzled, "Wait for what? If we wait any longer, the weather won't be suitable for the ritual."
"Don't worry, Teacher, I checked the weather forecast before coming out." Luo Wei observed the room's environment.
"What weather forecast?"
"Uh... just think of it as my astrological prediction..." Luo Wei withdrew his gaze, having already memorized every detail of the room.
"Are you stalling? You're not thinking of escaping, are you?" Evelyn narrowed her eyes dangerously, "You couldn't escape downstairs earlier, let alone here."
"I'm not thinking of escaping, I just want to chat with you." Luo Wei gazed at her deeply.
"I'm telling the truth."
