Chapter 7 The Gift of Life

"Lisiduowei! What are you doing! What have you done to me, a noble!"

When Lisiduowei's family members rushed to the town, they saw a scene that looked like purgatory. The nobles who had some knowledge immediately understood what this woman was doing. She was extracting other people's blood without limit in order to keep herself alive.

Lisiduowei wore a strange smile on her face. Her body was covered in cracks, from which dark blood flowed. However, a faint golden light could be seen blooming within her body, as if she was about to explode at any moment. Anyone who saw this scene would not think it was a good thing.

"What are you talking about? My followers, you've chosen eternal life, so you naturally have to pay a price. You become my followers, so naturally you must be under my control. This is perfectly reasonable. Do you have any doubts about this?" She no longer had the heart to talk to these followers. After all, they were all weaklings. She was the Vampire Queen! She knew better than anyone how these self-righteous people viewed her. She had been polite and respectful to them in the past, just for moments like this...

"It's time for you to pledge your loyalty to the Queen!"

Blood began to be drawn from these clansmen.

"Lisiduowei! Are you going to make an enemy of humans?!"

There are still nobles who question this issue.

A hint of doubt appeared on Lisiduo's face. "Do you think I'll still care about human affairs when I'm about to die?"

"No! Lisiduowei! Let us go! We can bring more people to you! If you kill us now, you will die in the end!"

"There's no time, my lords. If I had time, I would have devoured the people of Butuo City myself. Why would I summon you here? I'm living every second I can."

"Damn it! Look at my sacredness..."

Someone wanted to take out some props from his pocket, but that was meaningless because the activities of these clansmen were completely under the control of Lisiduowei, and they couldn't even activate the sacred props they got from the church.

"How interesting! They've become my Familiar, yet they're still carrying sacred items. Are they traitors sent by the Church? But that doesn't make sense."

Li Siduowei's eyes were filled with death.

She knew she was going to die here.

Every second she lived longer was a second—she had probably already lived many extra years. The moment she betrayed the Demon King, her fate was sealed.

No, that's not right.

Maybe even earlier...

Memories began to flow continuously, and Lisiduo remembered how the first two generations of vampires knelt in front of the devil when she was born.

"Master Demon! Our lives are almost coming to an end! Please help us!"

However, the Demon King at that time simply sat on the throne. "I know your lifespans have reached their end, so I created the third generation. You've lived long enough." He looked completely indifferent, gazing at the two vampires with cold eyes. "You two are failures, and it seems this third generation hasn't been a success either... Experimental waste should be treated as waste. In recognition of your contributions, I've allowed you to live long enough."

The third generation was not successful either?

What does this mean? Am I not a successful work?
At the beginning of her birth, Lisiduowei had already realized at this time that her future would be no different from the two creatures kneeling before the devil at this moment. Sooner or later, she would also kneel before the devil like them and ask the devil to grant her a longer life.

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this. After all, everything is a gift from the Demon King. Life was created by the Demon King. They will live as long as he wants them to.

If the Demon King intended for them to die, they should have just died... Why were they begging for survival?

The newly born Lisiduowei did not understand.

"big boss!"

The two generations of vampire queens had no dignity at all, they just knelt on the ground and kept calling "Master Demon King". They didn't even dare to make any excuses or persuasion, but just blindly displayed their sadness and pity.

"Lisiduowei."

The Demon King suddenly called out her name.

"Do you think they should live?"

I think?
Lord Demon King asks for my opinion?

How should I answer?

At this moment, Lisiduowei was not so smart. She naturally gave an answer based on the "settings" in her mind: "It is no longer useful to the Demon King and should be eliminated."

She saw the playful smile on the Demon King's face when she gave this answer. She also saw the trembling of the bodies of the first two generations of vampires kneeling on the ground. They did not look at the Demon King, but at her.

What kind of look is that?
Lisiduowei could not see any anger in their eyes. Logically, they should hate and despise her for saying such words...but she actually saw an emotion called "pity" in their eyes.

She almost thought that there was something wrong with her soul's cognition, but the Demon King would not make such a mistake, so these two people were indeed looking at her with pity... Why?
They are obviously going to die, so why are they pitying themselves?

As the blood of her followers gradually drained away, the scene they had witnessed at birth became increasingly clear. She seemed to understand the pity in the eyes of the first two generations of vampires. They had already known this future, the fate every vampire must face... Life given by the Demon King will be taken away by him. ... Even if you resist, even if you kill the Demon King—this fate will not change.

Aren’t you satisfied after living for so many years?
Lisiduowei had pondered this question before. The longer she lived, the more she wanted to live. But the memory of that scene lingered in her mind. She knew she was powerless to resist the Demon King, so when the "hero" appeared, she had no hesitation. Some thought the vampire queen had fallen in love with the hero—no, that wasn't the case. She simply hoped someone could stand up to the Demon King.

The brave A. Godora did it.

If only I had really fallen in love with him at that time.

In this way, if she had stayed by his side when he was in pain, he would not have ended up in such a miserable situation now. In the past ten years, she knew what the hero had faced, but... she did nothing.

Ah...that's not right.

At this time, she was still calculating and still wanted to live... In the end, she didn't understand human love at all.

"Lisiduowei!"

She heard a familiar voice.

Perhaps it is not appropriate to say that it is familiar. This voice is more vicissitudes and rough than before - but she knows whose voice it is. When her eyes began to break, she saw the bearded figure.

then……

She felt it.

A hand pierced directly into his heart, crushed it with brute force, and grasped the drop of golden blood from his heart. The blood of the devil would not be humiliated like this, but this hand was as steady as a mountain, and took out the drop of blood forcefully.

The blood of the Demon King cannot escape from the hands of the hero.

The vampire's nature allowed Lisiduowei's body to begin to recover, but even for her, such injuries would take some time.

She restored her eyes first.

She saw the brave man slit his own wrist, letting the golden blood merge into his body. The wound then healed rapidly—she could even see the golden light flowing through the brave man's body...

If you don't do this, the drop of blood will return to your body.

A. Godola just stood there, holding Lisiduowei. After more than half an hour, the light spots in his body stopped moving around and calmed down.

He let go of Lisiduowei: "Your body should have almost recovered. But the damage is very serious..."

"Yeah, I probably have a few years left to live at best."

Although the brave man arrived at the last moment, her "essence" had already suffered great damage. Even blood sucking could not continue to sustain the life of the vampire queen, and her life was about to come to an end.

"Why are you here? A. Godora."

"Call me Dora."

Lisiduo was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

"We have all been plotted against by the Demon King."

Of course, they were tricked by the Demon King. If not...

"She should have recovered her left hand." Lisiduo's expression was not pleasant. "You've also exposed your identity. The Demon King's revival and the Hero's reappearance—at such close distances, someone might blame you, believing you resurrected the Demon King."

Lisiduowei foresaw what might happen next.

"That's why I said we were both schemed by the Demon King. You'd pretend to surrender, but actually be preparing for the Demon King's resurrection, and I'd become the 'dragon slayer who eventually becomes the dragon.' Together, we'd resurrect the Demon King and plunge the world back into darkness."

"In that case, why do you..."

"It's too late. My body made the decision before my brain did. The Demon King probably calculated this. She knew what I would do."

Lisiduo bit her lip slightly: "So, what you mean is that we can only seek refuge with our Demon Lord now..."

"If you give up the will to live, then it doesn't matter. However, in this world, the only one who can continue to grant you life is the Demon King, right?"

Give life...

The past scene reappeared before Lisiduowei. Her face was pale and her body was shaking. "She will not give me life. To her, vampires are just a failed product... Both the first and second generations are like this..."

Duo Luo did not refute her words, he just asked: "So, do you want to live?"
