After experiencing the night of June 1, Valed stayed at home and waited for his teacher to teach him every day. His magic knowledge and skills also made leaps and bounds. The speed made Trish shout "perverted". From the separation of the magic wind to the harmony of the magic wind.
I have a certain understanding of the several branches of black magic, which represent the color pale and the undead witchcraft required to manipulate the undead; the color is silver gray, which mainly uses weakening and gain magic; the color is pitch black, which mainly uses magic to attack souls and entities and directly kill. I have learned a few of the most basic magics, such as driving corpses, creating skeleton soldiers, weakening armor, amplifying weapons, curses, and dark energy arrows.
At the end of the month, the power of Red Morrel was increased to the maximum. At this time, even the mage who had confidence in himself had to restrain himself at this moment. Except for those who were in chaos and the psychopaths who believed in evil gods, no one dared to use spells on this day. So Valed could not learn any new magic knowledge in class these days. He just listened to Trish telling stories, and then practiced soft gymnastics.
June passed like this. By the beginning of July, the Morrell Month passed. After the disaster month passed only once in the year, there were regular celebrations. This year was no exception. On July 1, a dinner party will be held in the Dekenhof Castle to entertain all vampires in the territory.
So on this day, Valed was reluctantly called out by his sister Isabella in the morning, and then accompanied her to choose clothes. The young lady who was competitive and could not be more powerful did not want to make a fool of herself on such a grand festival. She had to dress herself up beautifully. So Valed was hit by the sea.
Sitting on his sister's bed, Vared breathing while watching Isabella change clothes back and forth. Originally, Vared thought it would take less than five minutes to try on a piece of clothing. But Isabella had to stay in the special fitting room in her room for half an hour.
At the beginning, Vared could still say something patiently. But after a long time, he became impatient. He wanted to end this boring activity quickly and then go back to sleep.
So the conversation between him and Isabella became like this:
"How do you think of this one?"
"It's pretty good, it's very suitable for you, this one is better."
"Hey! You must be perfunctory to me when you say this. Look at the disadvantages of this dress, here and there, where is it better! I'll change one."
After saying that, Isabella ran into the fitting room again. Vared held his forehead with one hand and decided to change his strategy. Half an hour later, Isabella changed her clothes and came out.
"How do you think of this one?"
"Not good at all! Change another one quickly!"
"Well, then I'll listen to you and change another one."
“…”
At this time, if Valed didn't understand, he would be a fool. His sister Isabella didn't even think about choosing a piece of clothing. She was just enjoying the fun of constantly changing clothes - although Valed didn't understand this matter very much. In his opinion, some clothes had almost no difference in styles, just accessories, tassels, or colors. However, Isabella insisted on distinguishing so clearly.
"It's as easy as me. Sister, you're so pretty, you can wear anything." In the end, Vared couldn't help it. He rarely called Isabella and said to her sister. That meant Isabella would be kind and let him have a way out.
What Valed said was "like me" because he always gave this kind of "little thing" to his little maid Maya. Anyway, he was not as beautiful as Isabella, so he was sickly. As long as he dressed properly, it was fine. There was no problem in being unpretentious. He would shout at Maya after he went back.
As for Isabella, as the eldest daughter of the Castein family, she also has a personal maid. But as a woman, she naturally has to choose clothes and dress up herself. Although she is only twelve years old, Isabella cares very much about these things. Sometimes, Vared even thinks she is a little unreasonable.
Just like now.
If it were another time, Valed would ask for anything with his sister. Isabella would have to be happy for at least a whole day when she heard him say this. However, at this time, Isabella would have exploded like a cat with a tail thorn. That kind of surprise, that kind of helplessness, that kind of look at an idiot. It was like seeing the man from the mountaintop cave on Earth in 5000 AD...
After that, Isabella harshly said in a very high decibel voice. "The meaning of clothing represents"; "You can't embarrass the Castein family"; "You are six years old at least, you should understand this kind of thing, right?"... That kind of high attitude, that kind of superiority, as if she had mastered the truth. Vared was stunned.
Well, discussing such a thing with a woman is a mistake in itself, and Vared finally accepted his fate.
In the evening, Vared's mother, the Countess, also returned to the castle. She was accompanied by several vampires who were walking along the way. Compared to the time she had to go back until midnight before, today it was much faster. I believe the Countess also knew the importance of this festival.
Not only Silvania. Almost the entire civilized world will celebrate the day of celebrations to celebrate the damn month.
In Silvania, vampires who are rarely gathered together will gather together. The four earl leaders will invite blood relatives, collateral relatives, small families and temporary vampires in the territory.
As long as there is not something very important, I can't get out of my body, or the distance is too far, so I can't reach it. Then the invited vampires will visit you to contact each other, and at the same time relax the tense nerves due to work.
Vared began to participate in such a dance since he was four years old, and he had certain expectations for it - not because in the dance, children would receive preferential treatment such as desserts and juice. But because at such a dance, he could recognize more tribesmen. It has been said before that vampires have a long life. Even adult Vared has been in a ten-year relationship with these people. It would be good for him to know more people earlier.
At the same time, Valed could also try to analyze some information from the conversations of these people. Although this is meaningless to improve Valed's status and strengthening his strength, Valed didn't care about this. He just wanted more and understood the world - after all, as a child, Valed usually did not allow him to walk out of the Dekenhof Castle.
However, today was a little different. Valed could tell that in addition to the faint sorrow that was as always the one with the unknown, there were also some anxiety caused by other things.
night.
When the last ray of sunlight disappeared, the vampire feast began. The originally quiet and ancient castle became lively.
Although there have always been few vampires in this world. Compared with the rare wood elves, dwarves huddled in the fortresses of various mountain ranges are even rarer. However, the scene of gathering a tribe of the Earl's tribe still looks a bit crowded.
The Dekenhof Castle was originally very spacious, with a hall of nearly 400 square meters, plus the dining room, living room and the first floor, and several rooms on the second floor as amusement rooms were almost all filled. Nearly 800 vampires invited, and more than 750 came in the end. It can be described as a grand occasion.
Just think of the age of vampires, then this number is not very strange. Among the vampires who came to participate in the banquet, the oldest was over a thousand years old. The youngest was like Vared, only six years old. It can be said that they gathered all vampires of thousands of years and hundreds of generations, and there were only a few.
On this side, it is certainly because the vampire's fertility is too low. It is like Vared's parents. It is rare to successfully breed two children in less than ten years of marriage. On the contrary, under normal circumstances, it takes hundreds of years and a little luck to breed a descendant.
On the other hand, it is because of frequent wars, wars with the northern barbarians, wars with the Western empires, wars with the eastern dwarves, and wars with the ubiquitous green-skinned orcs like cockroaches... the entire country's borders on all sides were not at peace. Almost every minute, there were three to four small-scale battles. Large-scale battles over ten thousand people were also not uncommon. From the day it was established to the present, the country of vampires had been powerful and weak. But peace... has never been.
