“Thank you. Thank you. I will finish them all don’t worry.”
Right after she said that, Ivette stuffed her mouth with food with both hands. She was like a hungry animal eating at left and right with her face and slender fingers becoming ssy.
Aldred watching this was speechless. She… she must be really hungry.
When she stuffed too much food in her mouth she closer her eyes to savor the flavor and gulped it all down her throat before continuing to insert more food inside her mouth.
Everyone else looked at her with their jaw open. If not for her brother telling the story that they only ate insects and bugs, they would have thought that Ivette was an animal in disguise.
It was shocking and pitiful at the sa ti. How could all that food get inside that small, petite body of hers?
Raff noticed Aldred’s gaze, and was about to stop Ivette from eating frantically. But he stopped himself because he felt certain emotions coming from Aldred. The emotion were longing, nostalgic, pity, and other type of emotions.
As Ivette was eating, Aldred approached her with a smile, and then wiped her face with a towel. She stopped and looked at the boy.
“It’s okay. You can continue eating. Bartrem will cook more food for you.”
“T–Thank you.”
“No need to thank . You’re already part of us now. We don’t thank each other with words.”
“Then with what?”-.
Aldred smiled. “With always being there for each other.”
…
The floating castle.
Eve and Dina were sitting in the living room watching TV showing Aldred wiping the stain on Ivette’s cheeks.
“He’s grown so fast,” Eve said.
“He’s no longer the spoiled baby boy he used to be,” Dina said. “I feel proud and sad at the sa ti.”
“I cannot wait for him to return to the floating castle,” Eve said. “I want to hug him again like I used to do.”
“et him then,” Dina said.
“I must not. We have to let him grow by himself. If I et Aldred now, I probably won’t be able to hold it and take him back to the castle.”
Suddenly, she felt soone casted a world-wide divination spell. A powerful invisible aura spread out, enveloping the planet, and going through every continent, until one small point glowed bright yet that point was invisible to most eyes.
“A threat to my existence? A small boy?” A voice nobody could hear entered her mind. “I must remove him.”
She and Dina were the only ones who could hear that voice.
Eve stood up from her chair. “You want to co?” She asked her daughter.
“I am gonna stay here, mom.”
“Alright. Watch Aldred for while I am away.” She vanished and appeared in a dark dungeon where a man in large skeletal form was sitting on top of a ancient runes made from blood.
“Who’s there? How did you enter this place? A woman? A vampire at that? Hehe, you will beco one of my fine collection.”
Eve raised an eyebrow. “A celestial necromancer? You shouldn’t be in this small planet. I see you are wounded and lost much of your power.”
“How did you know of my power? Who are you?”
Suddenly the large skeleton gasped as his bones cracked. A powerful aura burst out from Eve and condensed towards the skeleton’s direction.
Fear welled up through every inch of his bones and he trembled in fear as his red eyes flickered. “This power… Who are you? Tell ! What a universal existence like you are doing in this place?”
Eve’s eyes flickered in crimson color.
“You are… you are the Grand Ancestral Vampire! The very first vampire! Eve!”
“I did not expect you to know .”
The skeleton kowtowed. “Oh Grand Ancestor, please give rcy to this low life. I do not intend to offend you in any way.”
“You are a threat to my son.”
“Your son is that boy? Please forgive , ancestor. I will do everything you ask of . Please give rcy.”
Eve hesitated for a second. “In that case, if there is any chance my son will co to this continent, you must prevent those two ranks above him from doing him any harm. If you do well, I will give you a drop of my blood.”
The large skeleton trembled in excitent. The pure blood of the Grand Ancestor herself? With that material he could grow a million tis more powerful than he currently was, and all of his wounds would be healed.
“This low-life shall do its best. I thank you, Grand Ancestor.”
“What is your na?” Eve asked.
“This lowly being is called Krazar.”
“I will rember you, Krazar.”
“This low self is grateful.”
Eve vanished, leaving Krazar all alone trembling in excitent.
“The Grand Ancestor… I cannot believe I t her in person. Even if I die, I will still be happy. I cannot wait for that boy to co to this continent. The ancestor’s blood. I need that blood to regain my power.”
When Eve teleported back to her castle, she sat down and watched the TV again.
“Are you finished, mom?”
Eve nodded.
“Who casted that divination spell?”
Eve blinked. “Uh… I forgot his na. It’s not that important.”
…
Ivette was eating a large piece of at as fast as she could while standing.
“Ivette!”
“Ivette!”
“Ivette!”
“Ivette!”
Everyone chanted her na because now, she was currently in a eating competition with 25 other contestant. So far, she had eaten more than 12 Bajaragon at while the others were still at their 8th at.
Aldred figured since she likes eating then why shouldn’t he make an eating competition. And here it was.
This was her last at, and she finished it with spectacular speed.
“And we have a winner!” Aldred shouted, raising her hand as her cheeks were filled with food. “As the winner of this competition, what do you have to say?”
“Mgat ihs dlcious. I wnt est mre nd mre.”
Aldred laughed. “And there we have it, folks! Please applaud for our winner and new mbers of our family!”
“Ivette!”
Raff clapped and smiled proudly at his sister. “So will you have seggs now?”
“…”
