Chapter 19: Perfect prey
"I... can't..." Frore then got up from his seat and walked towards Blaze.
"Frore...?" Blaze asked in a confused voice.
In an instant both of Blaze's wrists were caught by Frore in a single hand and pulled up.
"What are you doing?" Blaze tried to free himself, but the hold only got tighter, until there were two consecutive *crack* sounds.
".... ugh", Blaze's wrists broke. His eyebrows scrunched up in pain.
{F*ck! Only memories are gone, skills and stats are still there!}
Even though his instincts as a vampire had taken control of him, Flore subconsciously felt pained and guilty when he looked at Blaze's pained expression. He only regained enough senses to warn Blaze.
"Don't struggle, it will only get worse if you move. I can't.... hold on...any longer."
Still holding Blaze's wrists up in the air, he swiftly moved his face to his neck and bit him.
"Ah...!", Blaze trembled.
{Tsk. In movies and dramas, they make it look like being bitten by a vampire is pleasurable.... but it is so painful and... weird!}
{So, this is what that Butler meant by 'help your partner in staying alive.'. What kind of messed up situation is this? This dungeon wasn't even in the novel! Now that i think about it, all sorts of things that weren't supposed to happen, keep on happening recently....is this what is meant by butterfly effect? Is it because of my transmigration?}
While Blaze was busy thinking, Frore kept on sucking his blood.
After what Blaze like was a long time, Frore let go, of his wrists and removed his fangs from his neck. Blaze felt like everything around him was spinning and his head hurt. It appears that Frore had sucked too much of his blood, causing him to feel anemic temporarily.
Frore looked at him with a satisfied expression, he looked like a kid who had just received his favorite sweet. The color of his eyes changed from crimson to ebony.
Blaze was surprised, and eyes opened slightly wide.
"I am a 'Dempire', you see. I am half - human, so my requirements for blood are different from other vampires. Also, if i don't drink human blood every day, I would die." Frore said with a self- depreciating smile.
"I apologize for forcing you and hurting you. Even though you said you want to help me recover my memories."
{So you are telling me, if i don't feed him regularly Frore will lose his humanity and become a complete vampire? That butler, he didn't mention anything like this.}
Looking at him apologizing sincerely, Blaze felt that Frore must not have been in control of his actions at that time so, he wasn't angry.
"It's alright. I will help you whenever you want blood, so just tell me the next time." Frore felt a bit relieved at Blaze's reaction.
Blaze petted his head out of habit. He must have forgotten that his hand was injured, and so he when he placed his hand on Frore's head, he winced in pain "...hiss."
Frore turned and went towards one of the cabinets. He took out a small glass pot that had a light-green cream like substance in it.
"Please show me your hands."
Blaze did as he said and turned his hands towards him, they were still trembling a little.
Frore slightly frowned at that, and thought; {Your hands are still trembling from pain, yet how can you say that it's alright?} he then bent down on one knee and gently applied the cream on Blaze's wrists then bandaged them up. He also applied it on the bite wound on Blaze's neck.
"They should probably heal in about two days."
Blaze felt that the pain in his hands has decreased a lot. "Thank you"
"Please, you don't need to thank me. Also, let me escort you to your room. An injured human, with the smell of blood on him is a perfect prey in this castle full of vampires."
Blaze just nodded his head; he thought that talking to this 'Frore' really felt like he was talking to a noble. It was so... unfamiliar. Immediately after this, he also had another thought in his head.
{I was the one who promised to protect him, and now he is the one who ended up having to protect me. How ironic. Haha...}
Although he was laughing at himself in his mind, his face was perfectly calm and emotionless on the outside.

TrishWalker Here's today's chapter~
Looks like Frore expected something like this to happen in their little chat, so he was already prepared with bandage and medicine and all.
Thanks for reading~
