Chapter 259 King’s Gift
She walked over and listened clearly to their scattered conversation, which was the king's unilateral statement.
"You're costing Sunderland money and land and we're getting nothing. This is such a bad deal."
"I only have one request now. I want to live forever and rule Sunderland forever. You know I have that ability."
"."
There was sarcasm on Rose Hill's pale face, and his scarlet eyes looked at the king who lowered his head in front of him, "People compare me to the devil. Do you think the eternal life obtained by sucking blood is a blessing?"
"Devil? A strong physique, superhuman speed, extraordinary appearance, and the only price you pay is blood-sucking. What kind of curse and devil is this? This is a gift." The King of Sunderland raised his head, speaking proudly and excitedly, "I have With the same blood as yours, we have always been kings, as it should be.”
Rose Hill laughed mockingly, because they had similar blood to him, they had said the same thing, and this king was as brave and warlike as him.
"There are also people who think it's a mistake and disgusting behavior," he said.
The ambition in the king's eyes was undisguised, "It's just the trembling of the weak. They will always use any excuse to hate power."
"No one here is worthy of transforming me. Only you can teach me personally."
Rose Hill looked at him quietly for a while, "I will consider it."
He turned his head, and his gloomy eyes narrowed after seeing Sera not far away.
Seeing that the king was walking away, Sera walked up to him and said, "Why are you avoiding me? Do I make you feel disgusted?"
"You know I will never hate you." Rose Hill lowered his eyes and stretched out his pale hand in front of her, "Come on, give you a gift."
Sierra held his cold hand, and her eyes couldn't help but slide down to his collar. There was no tie there, the thin shirt was open, and a black rope tied with a ruby hung around his neck, looming.
She looked away, "Have you made up for the birthday party you missed before?"
"A meaningless celebration." Rose Hill lowered her voice and led her through the arched corridor of the palace. The marble floor was illuminated by the candlelight on the stone pillars, as if full of cracks.
By the fountain in the garden, Sera saw Horace being tied up. Tears were streaming down his face and his crotch was wet. He looked like a frightened king.
"What is this?" she asked doubtfully.
"If this kingdom belonged to you, would you want to stay?" Rose Hill asked in a low voice, as if he was talking about how the weather is today.
This is ridiculous. She has no experience in being a king. Sera turned to look at his cold face. The scarlet rabbit eyes were calm and dark inside, as if there was no hope, but they were stating a fact.
He wasn't kidding.
Serra squeezed his hand and said dryly: "I don't want to be a king. I haven't even taken political classes."
Rose Hill was not surprised to get the answer, "Oh, forget it."
Sierra thought for a while, "How about you ask me to dance."
Horace was dragged down again. In the quiet garden, frost and snow fell lightly on the grass blades, shining brightly.
Sera was dressed very thickly, and she also wore a red cloak, which was intertwined with the black shadow in front of her. A circle of flowers bloomed on the wide skirt, blooming around Rose Hill's legs.
His footsteps matched her slightly unfamiliar steps, making a soft sound on the snow.
Sera was lifted up by him and turned around in his arms. She looked down at his face, her red eyes were clear and beautiful, and darkness and brightness were separated on his face. His expression was cold and affectionate.
"Rose Hill."
After the dance ended, she raised her head and said, "Doesn't it really hurt when the sun falls on your body?"
"Won't."
"What does blood smell like? Is it like rust?"
"It can relieve the burning thirst in your throat. It tastes different from the taste when you are a human. To me, it is a drink."
"Don't you ever have to sleep again?"
"Endless energy."
Rose Hill was silent for a while, "Why do you ask these all of a sudden?"
Sera smiled and said half-jokingly: "Have you been waiting for me to appear since the 14th century?"
He pinched her chin, rubbed it, and whispered, "I'm sure that's the case."
When spring comes, the spring snow melts, the war between St. Warren and Lilunni ends, the exchange of prisoners between the two sides is completed, all colonies withdraw, and all new vampires, except those that are controllable, are killed by Rose Hill's people.
People began to leave their homes, and a woman who returned to her hometown received a box from the capital.
When he opened it, he found it was full of gold coins.
She suddenly remembered that the girl who had helped her on the way to escape said that she would repay her, and she burst into tears of surprise.
After finding a new home for his people, Losid rushed to the capital.
He also sent Khalida back. After learning the news from his dream, Sera was preparing to leave the palace to meet them.
Things should come to an end.
Rose Hill knew it well, so there was no way to stop him.
The kingdom was returned to Horace, and the crown was placed on his head again. With so many inhuman creatures watching, he no longer dared to rule as violently as before, and the result was considered satisfactory.
Rose Hill returned to his Duke's Mansion, but before leaving, he gave the pendant around his neck to Sera again.
"If you don't want it, throw it away."
Sierra took the pendant and was held in his arms again, "I leave the choice to you in the hope that you can come back."
She curled her lips and said, "I will make a careful choice."
Khalida returned to her father's arms. When Sera went to find her, it was Zachary who opened the door. His face had long lost the curiosity and purity that he had when he first landed on land, and he still had a lock on his neck.
Sera looked at his prisoner form, thinking of the entanglement of patricide between the two people, and selectively did not think about this bad relationship.
Khalida was very thin, her cheeks were sunken, and she looked extremely haggard.
She looked at her like a stranger, and then yelled at Zachary unceremoniously, "What are you doing? Who is she?"
Zachary was about to say something, but was stopped by Sierra. She withdrew, "It's enough that I saw her intact. There is no need to tell her the truth. You will be with her forever, right Zachary?"
"I can't live without her." Zachary replied calmly.
"Then take good care of her." Sera didn't think she could still be friends with Khalida. She had already made the decision to leave human society.
Luo Xied really bought a large manor in the capital. He bought it some time ago and waited at home for several days before Sera arrived.
As soon as he entered the door, he clung to her like a boneless fish, sniffing her scent obsessively, "Rose Hill has taken good care of you, you have gained some weight."
