Chapter 112 - Chapter 112: Discovered

On April 10, 1347, when Vivian felt Altair's gaze, she directly used her slender fingers to poke at Altair's small fangs, smiling as she curiously asked, "My dear, shouldn't you explain to me where you got these Sanguine teeth and abilities?"After hearing Vivian's words, Altair did not choose to answer, but instead turned her head and softly retorted, "I think you should explain to me first about what happened last night.""How did you convince Butler Hahn to give you that dangerous Sealed Artifact, and even agree to let you use it in the house?"Before the words had even faded, Altair turned her head back to look at Vivian. Her expression was like she was questioning, yet also probing.Vivian stared fixedly at Altair's face, lost in thought.But not a second later, she returned to her normal state, leaned down, and used her hand to gently touch Altair's face, explaining in a sincere yet unquestionable tone, "Have you forgotten? I am the master of this house.""The butler has no right to interfere with or refuse the master's orders; he can only obey.""It is you who have a big problem. Your family has no Sanguine bloodline, you are not a natural Sanguine, nor are you a member of the Church of the Earth Mother Goddess—so where did your Vampire abilities come from?"After saying this, Vivian leaned her body closer to Altair and whispered seductively in her ear, "Think clearly before you tell me. Last night, other than the Rose Gold Ring, you had no other Sealed Artifacts on you. In fact~ you didn't even have any clothes."Following the end of Vivian's question, the room fell into a sudden silence, with only two clearly audible breaths remaining.After an unknown amount of time, Altair finally made up her mind, turned her head, stared at Vivian, and said with a serious expression, "Before explaining this, I need to take some safety precautions.""Very well." After speaking, Vivian brushed back her hair, exposing her slender neck.Seeing this scene, Altair did not hesitate and directly bit down gently, utilizing the Moon Pathway, sequence seven "Vampire" ability, "Blood Servant Conversion," to infect Vivian.Once the infection was over, Altair let go of Vivian.Pressing her hand over the wound on Vivian's neck, she explained, "The reason I have Vampire abilities is actually quite simple.""I am not only a sequence six Demoness of Pleasure of the Assassin Pathway, but I am also a sequence six Potions Professor of the Apothecary Pathway.""A dual-Pathway Beyonder.""Hmm~" After listening to Altair's explanation, Vivian merely frowned, then nodded gently, choosing not to ask anything further.Once Vivian recovered, she gently swatted away Altair's hand. She sat up and said, "You were really ruthless when you bit down just now—you really don't know how to cherish a lady.""If such a beautiful swan neck of mine were to be left with a scar, I would be heartbroken."After speaking, Vivian stood up, walked off the bed naked, and came to the room's coffee table.She casually threw aside the torn fabric of unknown clothing that was already on the tea table, picked up the medicine bottle underneath, and applied the liquid to the wound on her neck.Seeing Vivian's actions, Altair also rose from the bed and began looking for her pajamas.After repeatedly picking up and putting down several pieces of fabric, Altair gave up searching.Because at this moment, their room—the carpet, the table, the bed—was filled only with various torn pieces of clothing.Seeing her actions, Vivian said teasingly, "No need to look. Last night, you tore everyone's clothes to shreds.""Maybe the clothing you're looking for is right under your feet."Upon hearing Vivian's words, Altair scratched her head in embarrassment, not knowing how to respond.Watching Altair's reaction, Vivian chuckled and slowly walked over.Placing her hands on Altair's neck, she said, "What are you shy about?""I actually preferred you as you were last night, that brutal demeanor of controlling the whole situation and allowing no one to question you.""Do you know, your performance last night was the true man in my eyes."Altair asked with confusion, "Actually~ I feel that the Acting for Demoness of Pleasure doesn't necessarily require this method. I could~ just be a prankster."After chuckling twice, Vivian pulled away from Altair's embrace, went to the sofa, sat down, and asked with confusion, "Did you forget the other rule?""To perform the Acting while keeping your true gender in mind.""If you only perform the Acting of Demoness of Pleasure, you will gradually lose control and start to deny your own gender.""Don't forget how I walked this path.""The pleasure of gentlemen is nothing more than this kind of thing.""I don't mind, so what are you minding?"At ten in the morning, while Altair was sitting at the dining table eating breakfast, she looked around, feeling that it was empty, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Where are the other servants? Why are there so few maids today—""The ones still able to move are all here." After saying this, Vivian, who was sipping tea on the side, fearing that Altair might misunderstand her meaning, added an explanation, "Hmm~~ don't misunderstand, I mean your personal maids, the ones who can still move are all here.""Why I said the ones still able to move are all here, I think you should be clear about.""As for the other servants in the manor, I gave them a two-day vacation. Right now, they~ should be at their own homes, or perhaps they have already gone out traveling with their families.""After all, our family's servants, in addition to being provided with food and lodging, also receive wages half again higher than the market rate.""I really can't understand what you were thinking, giving the servants such good treatment."After saying this, Vivian looked at Vera and explained, "As for this one before us who can still move normally, she is a fish that slipped through the net, and she is truly inept.""If it weren't for the fact that you really like her, I would have wanted to sell her off long ago."Altair looked toward Vera, who was not far away with a frightened expression, and smiled as she said, "She is quite useful at times. If it weren't for her today, we wouldn't even be able to eat breakfast.""Vera, go take some food to your sister and the others, then come back later to clean up the trash here in the dining room."Upon hearing this, Vera hurriedly left the spot.Watching her back, Vivian couldn't help but sigh, "I really don't know what the use of that 'Lucky One' potion she drank is. Every time, she perfectly misses out. She didn't even catch the great opportunity to ascend to the heavens last night.""In a certain sense, what happened last night cannot be considered a good thing, can it?" Altair said, holding a soup spoon and sipping pumpkin soup, adding, "And didn't I say? It was precisely because of this 'luck' of hers this morning that we were able to solve the breakfast problem."Vivian shook her head and said, "I don't think so.""Alright~~" Altair changed the subject, "I've been wanting to go to the East Borough for a few days recently. Do you want to come with me?""Sure." Vivian replied cheerfully.
