Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Petricia's words reminded Elvira that they did have a place to hide. And it makes sense for her father to escape there, as he was told the one who came was a sovereign

Her father will lay low and wait for her news. If there is no news, based on her understanding, he will hide his identity and try to rebuild the house using her brother's descendants.

"You are right. I will try to look for them there."

"I don't really care with what you do, but…" Petricia then pointed at the people on the land, "Aren't these all your people? Don't you need to fulfill your responsibility first?"

Hearing the screams and tears, a huge weight suddenly appeared on her shoulders.

With a sigh, she said, "You are right…"

"Just call me Petricia. It's not like you can do anything now, even if you meet them.

Here, help me with some medical treatment," Petricia said while pointing at the box filled with red potions and other supplies.

Back at Thalia's castle, Alex and MingYue were practicing their mastery over blood. They each created a small humanoid figure, hardened it, and then used it to fight against each other.

This is a kids' game from the Golden Era of Vampires.

Thalia made both of them do this, since not only is it fun, it also raises their control over blood.

Other than this, in the past there was also a competition called blood art, where they created complex figures and miniatures.

Thalia's eyes started turning hazy, looking at Alex and MingYue; she remembered how, in the past, she liked to do things like this.

At that time, she was still a child, living at an orphanage as both her parents died in the progenitor war.

Meanwhile, Alex had a grin on his face, while MingYue was annoyed.

She lost! Not once or twice, from ten matches she barely won one, and they already had done more than a hundred.

"Are you cheating or what! I should have more experience with this," MingYue complained with a grumble.

She had more combat experience and couldn't believe she was beaten this badly.

"How can I even cheat? This is not a VR game, you know," Alex said with a grin.

The reason he kept winning is because it's like playing a game with a more complicated controller for him.

With his experience with fighting games and his abilities, it was just very hard for MingYue to win.

As he doesn't actively involve himself in the combat, he could utilize his Cognitive Matrix effectively.

Unfortunately, Alex had just dug his own grave. He suddenly felt the hair on his back stand up.

MingYue looked at him coldly. "You saying VR game reminds me of something… H-Game, do you remember that word?"

Alex froze, and so did the figure he controlled.

"Cough, that was a long time ago. Just forget about it."

"Now tell me, Alex… What do you plan to do to me if Vesa don't appear and I don't wake up?"

"That…" Alex's blood figure dispersed as he stood up and took a step back.

"Continue, please… Humor me. You know I have watched many movies that you gave me, and I found out what that means.

You know, Alex, that really changed my view of you," MingYue said with cold eyes.

She also dispersed the figure, then stood up and walked closer to Alex.

With each step she moved forward, Alex took a step back.

"H-Game, I mean, is different, though. Yeah, the H means…" Alex paused as his brain went into overdrive to find the answer.

"Ho-Hospital game! Yeah, Hospital game; I just thought there was a patient there, and I need to play as a doctor who needs to…" Alex stopped his words as he realized he had screwed up even further.

The temperature dropped a few degrees, and MingYue's eyes turned ice-cold as he looked at him. She was now already familiar with many modern slang terms, making her understand the implications.

With a quick move, he then said, "I think I need to go to the bathroom now, MingYue, see you later."

Swish…

Alex disappeared from where he stood.

Seeing this, MingYue's cold lips turned into a beautiful smile, and she then let out a laugh.

"Haha… Serves you right."

Looking at the turn of events, Thalia was confused, "Lady MingYue, you seem to do that on purpose. You do know we are short on time, right?"

"Yes, I have a few reasons, but don't worry, he will return soon. I just saw an opportunity to make him get away."

"What do you want to talk about?" Thalia asked with a solemn tone, as she realized this meant MingYue wanted to talk to her alone.

Her cheeks turned a bit red as she then asked, "I have some questions about being a vampire as a woman. It's not something I want Alex to hear."

This problem had bothered her for a while, and it was not something she felt comfortable discussing with Alex.

"Ah… I think I know what you want to ask. It's something that happens to all newly turned vampiresses," Thalia said with a smirk.

Meanwhile, after leaving the area, Alex found himself navigating through the castle. The place was filled with many decorations, but not a single maid was in sight.

"That was close," Alex mumbled with relief.

He then thought, 'How did she find out what H-game means? I'm sure I never gave her anything related to it. Is that in one of the novels? But I'm sure I checked everything beforehand. Is Vesa betray me?'

He did this because he didn't want MingYue to think he was a creep. Just imagine giving an H-game, anime, or p*rn to the girl that you like. Even when the woman is fine with it, normally, it would still feel weird.

"Well, forget it. Now, where am I?" Alex asked himself.

He looked around, and to his surprise, he found himself in a library.
