Be a vampire in the world of Conan

late at night.

The neatly dressed Ye Zheng stood at the door of the church, looking around in shock at this deserted town.

He couldn't imagine how the priest could survive in such circumstances.

"Honey, what should I call you, and here..."

"Just call me Father."

"God...Father."

Ye is not used to being called priest.

After all, a vampire hanging out with a priest or something like that would not be dared to be written in a novel.

At least in the novels he read, vampires and priests are always opposites. The priest is righteous and the vampire is evil.

"Son, are you shocked?"

The priest walked to Ye's side and looked at the deathly silence around him.

It had been a long time since he had been so quiet and looked at this town, and every time he looked at it, it would trigger painful memories for him.

"What happened here? An infectious disease? Or a war?"

The houses in the town actually look like they have not been damaged, some are just traces of time caused by wind and rain.

“This place… used to be a fairly prosperous town, and at least the neighbors were relatively harmonious.

Every day in the evening, men after work would go to the tavern to drink. That was also the busiest time in the tavern. "

The priest pointed to a house in the distance.

In the dark night, most people can't see that far. Fortunately, there is no such restriction at night, and they can see the house with the name "Tavern" on the sign at a glance.

But all that was left of the signboard was the word "Tavern", and the writing on the front had long been blurred.

However, the tavern is generally clean, as if someone cleans it regularly.

"Do you often go to drink too?"

"Yes, I often go there to drink too, and I'm very familiar with it."

Although he couldn't see the house, the priest still looked in the direction of the pub out of familiarity with the place.

His eyes were full of nostalgia, but there was a hint of pain in the nostalgia.

"Child, do you know why this place is deserted?"

Although Ye wanted to say that he had just asked, but in this situation, he could only shake his head in cooperation.

"Because a terrible monster appeared here, a... vampire."

The priest's words made Ye feel a little confused.

Are there really other vampires?

What are they like?

Since this town was abandoned because of vampires, why would the priest take him in?

Why doesn't the priest leave this town?

What happened behind that vampire?

Could it be that the vampire is the priest in front of me?

Ye became more curious and had countless questions.

But he noticed that something was wrong with the priest's mood, and his intuition told him that he should not inquire about these things out of curiosity now.

Finding that Ye was silent, the priest laughed twice in a self-deprecating way, and his mood gradually returned to calm.

"Haha, you are a good boy, but I'm sorry, I'm not ready to tell this story yet. Let me think about it again and think about where to start."

The priest stroked Ye's head as if stroking a kitten.

"Come with me, kid, you must be hungry too."

After a while, the priest stopped touching his head, took out his flashlight and walked toward the tavern with Ye.

The two of them were silent along the way, each with their own thoughts.

Only the chirping of insects from time to time accompanied them on the road.

Walking on the road, Ye looked up at the sky.

She should be in the library by now.

What would her expression be like if she didn't see me?

Will it be sad?

Or are you looking for information in the library as usual?

As a genius, she should have many friends in school.

It doesn't make any difference whether I'm here or not.

After thinking about it, Ye suddenly came back to his senses and found that his feet had stopped at some point.

The priest, at this time, was standing not far away from him, looking at him kindly, with no look of impatience on his face.

"Feel sorry."

Ye apologized quickly and followed the priest.

"It doesn't matter, kid, the night is quiet. It's like eyes looking straight into the heart, making people fall into thoughts involuntarily.

But this is not a bad thing. It can make you face the deepest part of your heart and dispel the confusion in your heart. "

The priest didn't care and continued to lead him towards the tavern.

Ye heard the priest's words, looked at the dark night sky, and moved his lips.

"I……"

But in the end, he still couldn't say anything.

He was afraid of receiving from the priest a reality he did not want to face.

Vampires are evil after all.

"Child, you are still confused in your heart, but you have to remember that a person can be confused and scared, but never let yourself regret it."

Sensing Ye's movements, the priest shook his head imperceptibly, and then spoke to him very seriously.

At this moment, the priest stopped.

The tavern has arrived.

The priest stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the tavern.

Following the creaking sound of the door being pushed open, Ye Ye looked inside.

Unlike what he imagined, the tavern was not as shabby as it looked, and there were even a lot of wines he didn't recognize on the wine cabinet behind the bar.

It seems to be still in use here.

"Father?"

At this time, a figure emerged from behind the bar, making Ye startled.

Then he saw clearly that the figure was a little boy not much older than him.

"Chris, you fell asleep on the floor again."

There was a hint of helplessness in the priest's words, and the boy named Chris scratched his head in embarrassment.

“Hey hey hey, it won’t happen next time.

Who is he? "

"Hello, my name is Ye, I am..."

Night was thinking in my head at this time.

Didn't the priest say this place is deserted?

Why is there anyone here?

Or a little boy similar to him?

Does this priest really like little boys?

The more he thought about it at night, the more hairy he became, so much so that when someone asked him who he was, he responded reflexively.

Fortunately, he finally came to his senses and swallowed the word vampire.

"Is?"

Chris wondered why he was only half-talking.

"Yes, he is an ordinary person."

"Pfft! You're so funny. Although your name is strange, you were brought by the priest, so you shouldn't be a bad person.

My name is Chris Emide and I'm a trainee bartender. Welcome to the pub. "

Chris heard Ye introduce himself and was amused and laughed out loud.

"Okay, Chris, it's late now, you should go back to bed."

The priest watched them finish their exchange and then interjected.

“Okay, I’ll go back to bed right away.

Night, if you want anything to drink, you can come to me. Although I am still studying, I will work hard. "

Chris left a few words and left the tavern.

Seeing Ye staring blankly at the place where Chris left, the priest knew that he had to explain again.

It's just that it's getting daybreak. I hope I can finish explaining before then, otherwise he won't be able to bear the sunlight now.
