Nameless King

In Wain's hands appeared a small red chest resembling a box.

"What is it?" Eva asked.

"It's my little gift." Wain opened the chest, "These earrings would definitely fit you better than me."

Eva smiled happily and then became embarrassed. Her cheeks blushed, and she lowered her gaze.

"Thank you so much..." Eva murmured.

It was what Wain expected. He loved Eva not only because of her aggressive and crazy side but also in a big way because of such a humble and sweet image.

Eva reached for the earrings, but Wain stopped her.

"No, put your hair in a bun. I'll do it myself."

Eva nodded and did as he said.

Wain put the earrings on her and smiled weakly, "Done."

"Thanks again. I didn't expect you to..."

"Hmm?"

"Never mind... Don't pay attention to that..."

"Whatever you say. Do you have something to do with me? I'm going out again."

"What? Already?"

"Yeah, I need to find out something from the vampires, it won't take long, but then I'm going on a trip."

"Then, I want you to come back tonight..." Eva said the last words with difficulty.

"Huh, as you wish. See you later."

"Bye, take care!"

...

Wain headed back to the vampire city. Vlad and Delia were already back in Terrin, and besides rebuilding the city, the alliance building with Last Light was also well underway.

The vampires led the Ghouls and began digging a tunnel that would connect the two cities. This was critical to a productive partnership. The tunnel would be convenient for trade and vampires who disliked sunlight. It was also a safe place where no one could know what was happening there.

Wain decided to return to Terrin because he somehow needed to increase his blood's purity. He was sure the vampires knew better than anyone else on this subject. Blood purity was of the utmost importance to them.

"Mr. Wain, I am pleased to welcome you." One maid said as she escorted Wain inside the manor.

Vlad gave the instruction, and the servants knew that Wain was a friend of the Tran Family and should be addressed accordingly.

Wain nodded, "I want to talk to Vlad. Where is he?"

"Oh, Mr. Vlad is resting now. He is taking a blood bath. You can wait for him here, and I'll make you some tea or coffee."

"No, I have no desire to wait. Take me there, and I'll take it from there."

"Of course." The girl didn't argue.

They left the manor and entered a special complex similar to where the hot springs were usually located. Vampires preferred cold water to hot water, so they could relax and immerse themselves in their thoughts.

"Master Vlad is in that room. I can't go any further. Only vampires and you can enter here." The girl bowed, turned, and left.

'Hmm, servants are quite handy, but luxurious mansions and large estates are not for me. Too much trouble.' Wain thought and opened the door.

Cold steam blew into his face, and he saw Vlad chest-deep in a bloody pool. His eyes were closed, and he looked pensive. The interior was simple and aesthetic, wood and stone. A few dim yellow crystals illuminated the room.

"Ah, I told you not to disturb me." Vlad said, slightly annoyed. He thought one of the maids had decided to drop in on him.

"Is this really how the Tran Family treats their guests?" Wain smirked and said.

"What?" Vlad opened his eyes in surprise, "Wain? What are you doing here?"

"Aren't you glad to see me?"

"Don't get sarcastic. You know what I mean. What's more, you were definitely warned that I was resting. Couldn't you have waited a little while."

"If I did as the maids tell me, I could never beat you. I need to consult with you about something."

"All right, but you'll have to wait anyway. I'm not going to leave this beautiful place for the next half hour. You're welcome to join me if you like. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Only vampire nobles have blood pools like this. Consider it a rarity."

Wain shrugged, "Okay, whatever. We can discuss it right here. It's the right place."

Wain threw off his cloak, quickly undressed, and headed for the pool.

"Brother!" Suddenly a woman's voice was heard, and a half-naked Ellen entered the room. She was covering her breasts with a long white towel.

She wanted to join Vlad, but she froze in place when she saw a naked Wain.

Vlad slapped his palm against his forehead, "Damn, why did this have to happen now."

"What... What are you doing here?!" Ellen shouted and fled down the aisle.

"Isn't it obvious? I came to rest and take a dip in the blood pool. I have a counter question for you. What are you doing in the men's department?"

"What the fuck are you talking about? It's not sharing. Everybody can swim here!"

"Well, there you go, you answered your question. Aren't I everybody?" Wain smirked and plunged into the bloody water.

He felt cool, and yet it was as if there was a little fire inside him that made him feel warm. It was an unusual and strange sensation.

The pool was not blood but a special liquid similar to it. Vampires preferred to drink blood rather than bathe in it, but the corresponding color and smell allowed them to relax.

"You! Why did you even come!?" Ellen said loudly and approached the pool with an uncertain step.

"I agree. I'd like to know that already, too."

"Blood purity, I'm interested in how you can get it up. Preferably as quickly and efficiently as possible, any method will do, even the most dangerous." Wain said seriously.

"Hmm? Your blood purity is 50%. That's a pretty mediocre result for vampires since you wouldn't even be considered a nobleman, but I'm sure for the humans, different rules apply. What's more, you're very strong, why would you want to do that? Does it make sense for you to waste your time on this?" Vlad asked.

"Yes, I have no other choice. It's one of the conditions for the third evolution."

"What? You were in the middle of Second Chronicle when you came to us!" Ellen exclaimed.
