vampire dawn

In the silent late night, there was only the occasional sound of blinking eyes in the huge and gorgeous study room.

"Tuk tuk tuk" knocked on the door.

Gackt, who had been buried in the heavy and lengthy documents for a long day, blinked hard again, straightened up, stretched his shoulders, and said loudly, "Go in."

Faramir cautiously opened the door and stepped in. He said softly, "Master, there will be a meeting of the prince tomorrow. It's already late. You... have a rest."

Gackt looked at the thick document in front of him, and with a slight smile on his lips, he beckoned to Faramir: "Come here."

"Yes." Faramir agreed, and approached cautiously, standing beside Gackt and bowing slightly.

Gackt looked up at the warm dark green in his eyes, and asked softly, "Falamir, do you... miss Qingchun?"

When he heard "Qingchun", Faramir trembled for a moment, then buried his head lower, and said in an extremely rigid and strange tone with a barely audible voice: "...Yes, master."

"Hehe..." Gackt chuckled twice, "Okay, call Ryder over. You can go to rest too."

"Yes, master." Faramir seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and not long after he left the door, a small child walked in.

"Ga-chan~~~~" While the sweet voice filled the room, he threw himself into Gackt's arms with a smile and rubbed hard, "I haven't been here for a day, Ryder misses you so much!"

Gackt stroked his short black hair and raised his hand to his chin.

Exactly the same face as Hyde.Short black hair, bright black eyes, a tall and handsome nose, and lips that make people want to kiss...

The same clingy, the same spoiled, but... I always feel that something is missing.

They are not of the same blood race after all.

"Rest." He leaned over and kissed Ryder's nose lightly, then took his shoulders and walked with him into a huge bedroom.

The master bedroom...he hadn't been in since Hyde disappeared.

It's been almost a year.Seeing that the sacrificial ceremony is about to be held again, but the ruined castle where the ceremony is held... has become a forbidden area, no one can break into it, no one can approach that darkness, even Gackt when he is the strongest.

Therefore, the issues that will be discussed at the prince's meeting tomorrow, apart from the Holy See's delaying tactics, are the location of the sacrificial ceremony and the person who will preside over the overall situation.

Gackt lay on the bed, patting the little blood in his arms and thinking about his own thoughts.

This year, I feel miraculous when I say it.Unexpectedly, there was no heart-piercing grief as imagined, it was just... as if he was dead.

He used to think that Hyde could be forgotten by denying love, but slowly, Gackt found that he was no longer just "loving Hyde deeply", he had become a part of himself.

extremely important part.

After losing this part, Gackt suddenly had no purpose.I don't know what to do, and there is a vast void in my chest, as if I am dead.I can't arouse any desire, I don't have anything I want to do, I just go on day by day, like a walking dead.

Lucifer also disappeared, and the other princes automatically made Gackt the new leader by default, the leader of the entire blood clan.He no longer goes to the human world, but rests the order of the dark world, and permanently seals off the world entrances of Vorntun and Giovanni, leaving only the one in the territory of the Demon Party.

The seal of that entrance was automatically released due to the disappearance of the caster Qingchun.Now, among the more than 100 blood clans of the Demon Party who have regained their identities, [-] of them will stand guard there every day to observe the situation.

The people of the Holy See still did not give up, and sent a knight order to guard the entrance, laying down a powerful barrier of holy power.They just guarded, but did not attack. No blood race could endure the holy power outside, so almost no blood race went out this year.

The human beings in the dark world are running out of edible blood.

"Ga-chan~~~" The coquettish voice was exactly the same as that of Hyde, and Gackt was also a little dazed. After realizing it, he lowered his head and smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Why doesn't Ga-chan touch me anymore?" Ryder opened his big gray-blue eyes with a weeping expression, "Do you not like Ryder anymore?"

Gackt closed his eyes and shook his head: "Sleep first. I have work tomorrow."

"Oh." Ryder agreed, slipped into Gackt's arms, and became quiet.

In the darkness, Gackt smiled wryly: that little guy was sent by Assamite’s prince Raymond. He was originally a human being. When Gackt saw him, he had just been embraced by Raymond and became a little Assamite. .

The moment he saw him, the feeling of heartache surged overwhelmingly, but Gackt immediately suppressed the excess emotion forcibly.

Like or not, he is not Hyde after all, and Hyde will never have that timid look on his face!

But Gackt kept him with him anyway.Day by day, Ryder became more and more like Hyde, but Gackt couldn't find the feeling of the first side at all.

After all... he is not him.

It's just that life like stagnant water requires company.That's the only reason Ryder exists. Gackt just needs someone who can act coquettishly to himself without any scruples, so that he can constantly compare him with Hyde in his mind, and those memories will not fade away...

In fact, it is not only him who is abnormal, but also many blood races.

I heard that Tetsu almost collapsed, and he stayed behind closed doors all day long, and occasionally he looked so haggard that he would faint in the next second when the prince gathered. Gackt always wondered why he was so sad.It seems that the relationship between him and Hyde is really very good, but...it is him who caused Hyde to go on the road of destruction.

I heard that all the roses in Toledo's Rose Castle withered overnight, and were replaced by Yadis with all white, tragically white, desperately white.

And Faramir, who was right next to him, did the same. After half a year in a trance, he finally returned to normal on the surface, but his behavior became more and more rigid. Gackt couldn't bear it, and suggested that he find a partner, but it was...in vain.That was the first time Faramir rebelled against what Gackt had said.

……

The perishing clan seems to have really perished.

After waking up the next morning, Gackt felt inexplicably irritable. He shook off Ryder who was stalking him like a squid and went into the bathroom.

The cold water rushed over his head and face, and he finally calmed down a bit, suppressing the panic in his heart.

Is something going to happen today...

Walking out wiping his hair, Ryder was looking at himself with extremely aggrieved eyes. The irritability in Gackt's heart surged again...

"Ga-chan~~~" The long accent was so charming that Gackt immediately shouted: "Don't call me that in the future!"

Seeing Ryder cowering in horror, Gackt felt even more regretful.

Shouldn't...shouldn't have kept him around, shouldn't have made him so similar to Hyde...

Even a substitute is a kind of blasphemy!

Hyde won't talk so flatteringly, Hyde won't make such an unpleasant voice, Hyde won't trick himself into paying attention to him so often, he's always very understanding and gives himself enough space to deal with things...

he always……

Gackt thought, a sense of powerlessness swept through his body.Before Ryder could make a sound, he rushed out of the room in some embarrassment.

"Master, you..." The door happened to bump into Alice who was holding a stack of books, and she came up to her with concern and asked, "Master, are you okay?"

Gackt looked down at himself, wearing nothing but a bathrobe.He sighed softly and shook his head: "Help me prepare the dress."

"Okay, send it right away...uh...?" Alice looked at him questioningly.

"I'll have breakfast in the study." After Gackt finished speaking, he turned and strode towards his study, trying to suppress a series of abnormal emotions since getting up in the morning with his affairs.

"Yes...Master." Alice looked at his back and shook her head helplessly.

Ryder poked his head out of the bedroom, saw Alice and asked, "What's wrong with Ga-chan?"

Alice glanced at him disdainfully, and walked away without answering.Ryder murmured behind her and she ignored her.

After getting the dress, Alice met Sora who had just reported the completion of the work at the door of the study.

Seeing Alice's gloomy face, the silver-haired blood man pulled her aside and asked softly, "Why, who made you angry?"

"It's not that stinky Ryder..." Alice gritted her teeth with a snort, "Which blood clan would not call me 'Marquis Alice' or 'Master Alice' when seeing me, or even 'Sister Alice'...he What! He's chattering around... I really think of him as someone!"

"Hush...keep your voice low." Kong covered her mouth, "Master is in a very bad mood this morning, there are some things... you can't say."

"Understood..." Alice curled her lips, carried her clothes to the door of the study and knocked on the door, and Sora made a gesture to her and left.

"Come in." The voice was as deep and elegant as ever, and Alice immediately perked up, with a bright smile on her face like magic, she pushed the door in, snapped her fingers, and the clothes in her hands automatically floated in mid-air, like hanging clothes. On an invisible shelf.

"Master, the dress is here." Alice bowed slightly, her eyes filled with fanaticism and admiration that hadn't changed for hundreds of years.

"Yeah." Gackt nodded, "Falamir will accompany me to the meeting today, so you and Kong don't need to go. Here, help me deal with the news sent from outside, and sort out all the bishop information that the Holy See has recently changed. "

"Yes, master." Alice replied respectfully, and then said with some concern, "I can finish the tidying up work by myself, please ask Sora to go with you."

Gackt glanced at her and nodded: "Alright. You go down first, and I will send the things to your phantom tower later."

"Yes, master." Alice said and withdrew.

The dukes in the Demon Party all have their own towers, and the dukes are just Qingchun and Kong.Since the disappearance of Qingchun, his thorn tower has been idle, and the magical thorns surrounded by the appearance have become more ferocious, and no one has dared to enter.

The only exception is Alice. She is the blood clan who has been with Gackt for the longest time except for Qingchun. Although she is only a Marquis, she has helped Gackt with many things.After completing a task well, Gackt rewarded her with a tower, which was full of illusions. As long as the vampires except the prince stepped into it, they would be lost in the illusion.

Because this meeting was called by Gackt, the location was set on the tower of Lesembla Castle closest to the center of the world.

After preparations were made, the princes arrived one after another. Gackt changed into formal clothes and went inside the tower to prepare for the discussion. Sora and Faramir stood on either side of his seat.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the meeting began.

"Then, everyone who will confirm your arrival for the last time." Gackt said, and clicked from his left hand side, "Giovanni."

"Yes." Sadr replied.He still hasn't joined the Demon Party, but he has completely become a subordinate clan of the Demon Party.

Gackt nodded, and continued, seeing Tetsu sitting next to him, so he clicked: "Vountun."

"Yes." Tetsu said softly.

Gackt found that he seemed to be in good condition, at least much better than the last time he met that he had just been dug out of the soil.

The neutral and secret parties were quickly finished, and Gackt was a little disappointed. After a wry smile, he straightened up and said, "Then, the meeting..."

"Squeak—" the door opened, and at the same time a somewhat cold voice came into the room: "Why did you skip us? Or...you don't take the poor perishing people seriously anymore?"

After seeing the person's face clearly, almost all the princes turned pale with fright——

"Lucifer..." Sadr murmured.

The vampire in front of him had long platinum hair and clear silver eyes, and he was exactly the same as the just-adult Lucifer in both imposing manner and magical coercion.

"No, it's not...it's not Lucifer..." the other prince denied.

"Hyde!" Tetsu yelled out, his adjusted emotions collapsed again, he stood up, as if he was about to rush up the next moment.

Hyde stood there smiling quietly, and after sweeping across the room, he fixed his eyes on Gackt who seemed to be frozen across the long table.

"I, Hyde, the new generation prince of the Perishing Clan. I'm back."

The author has something to say:

Alas... I wanted to abuse Mr. Ga for a few more chapters... but I really can't bear to watch him...

In fact, I don't want to write about the stinky Ryder...

The name Ryder comes from Ryder, the green-eyed teenager who wants to get Leo in the horror fan "Confusion"... It's right to love someone, but it's impossible to love someone who can't love yourself and want to get him It's a bit annoying...

Well...Hyde is back, and as the extremely powerful Prince of Perdition =w=

As for the hidden story, it will be in the next chapter~

Now a certain brand is struggling with how to deal with Yadis... I really like Yadis, but I feel that Qingchun and Faramir have been laying the groundwork for so long, which is a bit inappropriate... What are your opinions ==
