Louis walked between the seats and walked to the stage.The demon on the stage continued to do the original thing.

The guy on the stage must have noticed me coming, and now he's putting on airs and looking like he doesn't care, Louis thought.

The young and handsome demon did not care, even, it seemed that it didn't see Louis.When Louis came in, the other party was playing music with a glass harmonica; now that Louis walked to the front of the stage, the soft and crisp music did not stop.From start to finish, the demon sits in front of the instrument, concentrating on the long line of glasses in front of him, playing on the pedal.

The music was beautiful, but Louis didn't care to appreciate it.He doesn't like glass harmonicas.The sound of this nearly outdated old instrument was once terrifying, and it was even called "the devil's instrument" many years ago and declined because of it-this ghostly title is actually appropriate.Its timbre is intoxicating, but it once became a common prop to confuse others' minds, and was favored by many female demons and young witches.

Louis walked up the stage-side stairs, eventually reaching the stage. "Are you waiting for me?"

The demon stopped playing, but did not get up from the glass harmonica.His slender fingers stroked the gap between the glasses.Rubbing made the glass tinkle softly, and the soft sound echoed in the dark hall, becoming eerie. "Yes. I want to talk to you, Louis. I need a conversation just the two of us. At least, Roland can't be here. He doesn't want us to meet alone. Come here, I won't eat you again."

Louis stood at the other end of the stage, unmoved by the invitation. "I don't know your name yet."

"Edmund. It seems that you are a little afraid of me, at least you are wary of me." The demon laughed twice, stood up and faced Louis. "But you know, I'm already very polite. When you are most tired, I can take advantage of the chaos to dig out your heart, but I don't. I don't need to light candles here. You can't see me in the dark, but I Can see you, you know...but I still keep the light for you."

The provocative words did not make Louis angry, and the words of kindness did not move Louis' heart.At this moment, Louis was carefully observing the demon in front of him.Compared with the appearance of the previous night, the other party's face was not very good-looking, it was almost translucent bluish white, and black blood vessels were faintly visible.

Louis knew that there was only one situation in which a vampire would become like this: a fight with a powerful opponent, exhausting too much energy, and possibly even being injured; at the same time, it hadn't sucked human blood for a long time. "You're friendly, but not very smart. If you want to catch prey, you should be meaner!"

Edmund smiled at Louis.Different from Roland's elegance and gentleness, this guy's smile is arrogant and cold. "Before we do anything, we should have a friendly conversation so that we can understand each other's thoughts better. I will get you, we need you in our ceremony, and this is irreversible. Now, you only face one choice: Volunteer with all your heart and soul Follow me, or let me take you away with drastic means that I don't want to use?"

Louis responded quickly.He reached into his pocket.Inside was a pistol loaded with special bullets.He advanced the bullet, and the clicking sound was very clear in the quiet hall.

Edmund spread his hands and showed a bloodthirsty smile. "Sorry, Louis. You know I don't want to fight you."

Louis flexed his shoulders and replied coldly, "That's utter bullshit. Last night, you smashed the roof of a house with me and broke two ribs."

"You killed many of my companions, I have no choice."

"Shouldn't I be the one to say that!" Louis took a deep breath, suppressing his anger. "And, as far as I know, there is no affection or trust between demons. For profit, you can even kill your own parents and offspring."

"That's absolutely true." Edmund sighed with emotion, suddenly raised his wings, and flew towards Louis!

Louis was already prepared.He shot the opponent in the left arm.

"Vampire demons are like intermittent psychopaths, who don't know when to go mad. Of course, the latter must be carefully appeased, and the former need to have their fangs pulled out and killed." At missionary school, Louis learned at this point.And his long career as an exorcist made him know how correct this sentence was.

Louis managed to hit Edmund, and knew that the corrosive wound would spread rapidly from the opponent's upper arm to the whole body, but he didn't expect what Edmund would do.In just a few seconds after being hit, the demon tore off the injured arm without hesitation.

Louis was taken aback by this.By this time, Edmund had thrown him down and bit his neck.

Louis cursed, took out a dagger and stabbed Edmund in the waist.Silver's damage to vampire demons is considerable, and the pain it brings cannot be ignored.The demon on top of him raised his head upwards and let out a roar like a wild beast.

Seizing this opportunity, Louis broke away from Edmund and jumped up.He touched his neck first.The blood stains on his hands instantly made him feel bad.He had suffered many injuries since he became an exorcist, but this was the first time he was bitten by a vampire.

"You're going to have bad luck today," said Louis, staring at Edmund.Compared with other blood-sucking demons who often walk on all fours and recuperate on the ground like beasts, the other party behaves more like a human.At this moment, Edmund had already stood up, covering the wound on his waist with his hands, and muttering words.Louis didn't know what the other party was reading, but he saw something appear on the other party's face.It made him shudder.

It's the one that represents Satan.Thin red lines gradually appeared on Edmund's face. It was nothing but the pattern that caused a serious psychological shadow to Louis.

Louis took a step back, aimed at Edmund's chest, and pulled the trigger quickly.The bullet that should have entered the opponent's body was bounced off by the invisible barrier and fell to the ground.This surprised him again, but when he thought of who the other party's father was, his surprise turned into worry.Louis didn't shoot again, just paying attention to the opponent's changes.

Edmund's body was undergoing transformations that couldn't be ignored: pale limbs sprouted from the broken shoulder and a brand new arm was rapidly forming; the blackened wound on the side was fading and healing.

Louis soon realized that he might not be able to kill the opponent with ordinary weapons.Looking at Edmund with fierce eyes, Louis began to consider other ways.

Mixing your own blood with holy water is usually a good way to deal with powerful demons, but the enemy wants your blood and heart, and this method is likely to succeed.Sunlight is also a good weapon, but there is no way to collapse the thick dome in my backpack.

"Louis, I'm afraid you're wrong." Edmund stood up straight, and he had returned to normal, and he was able to move freely. "It's not me who will be in trouble, but you. You can't hurt me at all. Even, if you want, you can..."

Edmund was interrupted by flattering hisses from outside the theater.The handsome demon frowned handsomely. "An outsider is coming, who could it be?"

Louis involuntarily turned his gaze to the door.He already had a surmise in his mind, which made him dangerous: if it was the man he thought, then both Edmund and himself would be in trouble.

There was a "whoosh" from outside, which sounded like the sound of fireworks before they burst into the sky and bloomed.But that thing was obviously not a firework—it exploded, blowing a hole in the opera house's cupola, and the sunlight shot in for an instant, shining on Edmund.

Vampires are not immune to sunlight, no matter what.Edmund screamed again, this time into a wail of excruciating pain.His skin was already smoking from the sun.He quickly ran to the edge of the stage, jumped backstage and disappeared.

If it was normal, Louis would definitely catch up without hesitation.But now, without thinking, he turned around and ran towards the theater gate.The top of his head was still collapsing, and rubble fell one after another, covering the places he had stepped behind.

As soon as Louis escaped from the theater, the largest building in this small town completely collapsed and turned into a pile of ruins.Louis panted and looked at the instigator.The person who came was exactly the one he had guessed, which made him feel very happy when the shock just came to an end.

A tall, middle-aged man was riding on a horse, his dark skin shining in the sunlight.Originally a factory employee in the North, this man built a black church in a slave area 20 years ago, an act of kindness that cost him all his savings.He joined the ranks of exorcists at the beginning of the Civil War and the era when demons were most rampant, and soon became one of the highest-level vampire hunters.At present, he is the only black "teacher" in the mission school. He is very strict and unkind, and always makes young students detour.

When the man was trapped in the same building as the vampire, his method of rescue was to blow the building down with a bomb.As for himself, he had already said in class: "If I am in danger, please do not come to save me. An exorcist should take exorcism and extermination of demons as his sole mission. God will bless me, just as he will bless you all." people."

"Mr. Grant, you look good." Louis deliberately kept a certain distance from the other party.He was afraid of the other party: In the assassination activities in the previous life, not only failed to kill the other party successfully according to the order, but his wrist was broken; in this life, he was tortured by the other party in school.He fears each other, but admires him more.

Grant looked at Louis. "You don't look well, you're tired, and you've been bitten by demons. They won't infect you, but you have to be careful, Louis."

here we go again.This guy is always a teacher, educating his former students.Louis groaned.But on the surface, he never dared to refute the other party. "Yes, you are right." He hesitated for a while, and asked, "Although it is not the time to ask this, but...you know why I am not easy to get hurt and easy to heal, right?"

Grant frowned impatiently.He pondered for a while and gave a vague answer. "I don't know. I think anyone who wants to protect you probably won't know the reason."

"Okay." Louis didn't want to ask any more; he'd gotten it pretty much already. "I'm not the only one like this, right? Are there any other companions like me?"

"Of course there is, and you have a good relationship. There are at least three conflicts a week, and we all have a headache."

"Oh, it's him!" Louis covered his face in annoyance, and argued, "It's not my fault! He always bullies his younger peers, I can't bear it..."

"Okay, shut up before I punish you. Is there a church or a retreat for the monks here? My horse and I are tired. There are a lot of demons here, and I think you were too tired last night .Take a rest first, and level the town at night."

"Yes, there is, but..." It was turned into a residence of demons before, and I stayed there with a half-demon last night.I was tired enough, but not all because of the exorcism.Louis was embarrassed by the thought. "Can you wait for me? Please let me clean up there first."

Louis hurried back to the clock tower.Roland was waiting for him in the house.

"You either leave or completely disguise yourself as a human being. Here comes my teacher, who hates all demons. Although most exorcists, like me, will be confused by your current appearance, his intuition is terrifying. If He recognized you... well, he will probably be the one who got hurt." Louis spoke quickly until he realized that Roland wasn't paying attention to his words. "What's wrong?"

Roland looked serious and looked very unhappy. "You were bitten by that guy."

Louis shrugged nonchalantly. "Indeed. But don't worry, he can't infect me. And look, haven't I already healed?"

"You're fine...but I'm still not happy." Roland suddenly hugged Louis tightly, sighed and said, "I don't like other demons leaving their scent on you."

"Don't worry, that's your brother." Louis teased.He knew full well that there was no brotherhood among demons.

"When necessary, I will directly dig out his heart. I have no feelings for the so-called fellows. Even, I have not seriously invested in feelings for anything other than you."

Louis felt a little hot in the face.This love story is a bit exaggerated, but Roland said it so sincerely that he couldn't help but believe it.He also hugged each other. "So, what are you going to do now?"

"to be with you."

"It hurts to put a cross on the back of your hand."

"I know. But I have to be with you. Besides, if I'm not here, how are you going to explain your partner to that gentleman?"
