Actually, feeding two physical vampires at the same time was quite a burden for Adele. After all, this was different from sex. Because of her witch powers, Adele could absorb energy while having sex. This way, she could maintain an almost perpetual motion-like ability to sustain herself through sex. But satisfying a vampire’s bloodlust consumed the blood produced by Adele’s own body.

It was said that the total blood volume of an adult woman was about 4200 to 4800 ml. For a petite girl like Adele, it would probably be even less. Let’s assume she had 3500 ml. That was only equivalent to seven 500 ml bottles of mineral water! Ugh, Kaiser and Wofoo would drink at least two bottles. If she fed five more vampires, she would be completely drained in one go!

Adele started counting on her fingers as she left the school gate. Dorothy, Hermione, Sharon, Celeste, Edith... Ahhh, if all of them were thirsty for blood at the same time...! Adele felt like she would really be squeezed dry, meow!

But Adele didn’t need to worry about this. The higher the level of a vampire, the stronger their control over their desires. They wouldn’t let their bloodlust become cheap, nor would they lose their minds like low-level vampires if they couldn’t satisfy their thirst. Plus, there were many high-quality blood products provided by modern human society. Except for occasionally needing Adele’s help, they could satisfy their bloodlust on their own.

But even the highest quality blood products couldn’t compare to even a single drop of Adele’s blood.

After leaving the school gate, Kaiser and Wofoo began to look around at the high-rise buildings, the greenery, and the shops along the street. Unlike the scarlet sky of Twilight City, this world was filled with a colorful vibrancy. It wasn’t evening yet, and the sky was still clear and blue. The cool breeze carried swirling yellow leaves, and the scene was bustling with activity.

“It’s a beautiful city,” Kaiser complimented, which was rare for her.

Wofoo also nodded. But this was a common sight for Adele, so she didn’t say anything, just trotted to a milk tea shop she frequented and ordered three drinks that she remembered being delicious.

The reason she didn’t ask for Kaiser and Wofoo’s opinions was, firstly, because Adele trusted her own taste and wanted to share, and secondly, because she knew her actions would be allowed and indulged. Indeed, Kaiser’s lips curled slightly in a doting smile.

Soon, the drinks were ready. The three took their chosen drinks and walked along the commercial street, chatting and laughing. Finally, they decided on a barbecue restaurant. They really are carnivores. And to privately discuss some news about the Vampire Clan, Adele specifically booked a private room and refused the waiter’s service. After all, grilling # Nоvеlight # your own meat was also quite satisfying.

Inside the warm and beautifully decorated private room, the three sat around a small charcoal brazier. The table was already filled with plates of fresh beef and mutton that looked appetizing under the bright lights, and fresh green lettuce with glistening water droplets was served in a basket. The dipping sauces were in small dishes, including barbecue sauce, dry dipping powder, and a sweet and sour sauce that Adele didn’t know the name of. She usually liked to wrap a piece of grilled meat with lettuce, a few slices of garlic, and a little chili flakes. If there were kimchi, she would also gladly add a piece, then wrap it all up and stuff it into her mouth, her cheeks bulging slightly like a greedy little hamster, extremely cute.

“You’re asking about what happened after that evening?” Kaiser frowned slightly.

Adele nodded.

“So you’re asking about Dorothy.” Kaiser directly pointed out Adele’s thoughts.

Adele coughed slightly. “Y-You could say that.”

Wofoo’s ears, hidden under her hood, perked up. She seemed to have something to say, but Kaiser stopped her with a look. And Wofoo, with her soft personality, immediately became dejected.

“It’s already the start of school, and even you and Wofoo have transferred here.”

“But I haven’t seen Dorothy all day. I asked others, Hermione, Celeste, they all said they weren’t sure.”

“So I could only ask you.”

“Don’t be sulky, Kaiser~.” Adele rarely acted coquettishly towards Kaiser for Dorothy’s sake. She knew what was going on. Even if Kaiser had completely let go of her rivalry with Dorothy, no longer thinking about challenging that insurmountable opponent, it didn’t mean their relationship had improved. On the contrary, Kaiser, whose heart had been crushed by Dorothy’s strength, couldn’t bear to hear Dorothy’s name mentioned.

But Adele felt that it wasn’t good to let their relationship remain strained. She might as well take this opportunity to let Kaiser help her understand Dorothy’s situation. Then Adele would have the chance to say good things about Kaiser in front of Dorothy. Of course, it was also true that Adele wanted to treat Kaiser and Wofoo to a meal as the host.

Kaiser snorted, seemingly sulking. Adele’s date isn’t even pure. Thinking about another woman while being with me! How hateful! If it were the Kaiser from before, flipping the table and leaving would be a light punishment. But now...she had changed. Perhaps only those who had truly liked someone would understand this feeling of helplessness towards them, especially when Adele looked at you with those star-like eyes, as if pleading. It was even harder to refuse.

But Kaiser didn’t want to give in, at least not completely. So she took a deep breath and quickly glanced at Wofoo. Actually, Kaiser also saw through Adele’s thoughts. She wanted to ease the tension between her and Dorothy, to make her owe Dorothy a favor. It would have been easy to just follow the path Adele laid out for her, but due to her personality, Kaiser could yield, but definitely not completely. At this time, Wofoo, Adele’s good puppy, who had been wanting to speak since earlier, became the perfect candidate to convey the message on Kaiser’s behalf.

Before following Adele, Wofoo had always been Kaiser’s follower. Her status in Kaiser’s circle was quite low. After all, werewolf blood was considered too dirty by vampires. But only Kaiser didn’t bully her or look down on her. This wasn’t a pretense to maintain her leadership, but rather, Kaiser had the magnanimity of a strong person and didn’t care about bloodlines or status. So Wofoo still trusted Kaiser very much to this day, the most trusted being besides Adele. But this trust didn’t contain any intimacy. Instead, it was because the difference in their status was too great, without any conflict of interest, that a trusting atmosphere could be created, and they could become “friends” to a certain extent.

As for Wofoo’s trust in Adele, there was no need to mention it. It wasn’t reason, but pure emotion. Therefore, Wofoo was willing to cooperate with Kaiser’s hint and reveal Dorothy’s information to Adele.

“Th-That...I actually know about Dorothy’s recent situation,” Wofoo said hesitantly, but it was because she was nervous.

Adele immediately looked at Wofoo intently, which made her even more nervous, but the girl still tried her best to explain, her cheeks flushed, so focused that she couldn’t even smell the aroma of barbecue. So the grilled meat was quickly divided by Kaiser, who ate heartily while putting the best pieces onto Adele’s plate. Oh, she also left a piece for Wofoo, but it was a bit overcooked. But Wofoo probably wouldn’t mind.

“It’s True Ancestor Daphne, she...”

“She thinks that Her Majesty Dorothy, as the current queen, shouldn’t attend a human academy anymore, but should receive the royal education prepared by her and the other True Ancestors.”

“Lady Chen Xi opposed this at the cabinet meeting.”

“But...the opposition was overruled. The other True Ancestors all think that the future Empress of the Vampire Clan shouldn’t be brainwashed by human education anymore.” Brainwashed, that’s right, that was the outrageous word those True Ancestors used.

“They think Dorothy should have her own thoughts, thoughts that belong to the Vampire Clan and always stand from the perspective of the Vampire Clan,” Kaiser added.

“Politically incorrect as it may be, this is also a form of brainwashing. They talk about independent thinking, but the direction of thinking has already been framed.”

“But Dorothy is the future Empress of our Vampire Clan~”. Adele suspected that Kaiser was being sarcastic towards Dorothy. But her next words were true.

“Her position cannot be changed. This has been determined since her birth, whether she likes it or not.” Dorothy was destined to represent the Vampire Clan. With great power comes great responsibility.

If Adele were a member of the Vampire Clan’s high-ups, she wouldn’t want her future Empress to continue receiving human education and be instilled with human ideologies. But Adele wasn’t, so she didn’t care about those things. What she cared about was that, according to Kaiser and Wofoo, Dorothy seemed to be no longer coming back to school, no longer returning to Cromwell Academy, no longer staying by her side. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Thinking of this, Adele’s eyes dimmed noticeably, and she leaned back against her chair, looking a bit listless. She remained silent for a long time, so long that the meat Kaiser had just grilled was overcooked and about to burn, before she finally raised her head and murmured, “I see.”

“I actually thought of it too, someone of her status...”

“It wouldn’t be appropriate for her to stay with us anymore.” Adele forced a smile, but it made Kaiser’s heart ache inexplicably. Based on her impressions and the information she gathered, Kaiser concluded that Dorothy’s position in Adele’s heart wasn’t as high as she thought. All are equal before love? No, absolutely not equal. Even if you raised two kittens, you would still prefer one over the other, let alone having multiple lovers. The feelings and experiences each person gave you were different. How could love be equal, perfectly balanced on a scale?

But Adele was still sad. Yes, even if love wasn’t evenly distributed, even if Dorothy’s weight in Adele’s heart couldn’t compare to Celeste, Hermione, or... But love, it truly existed. Adele had let go of the past and fallen in love with Dorothy, so she felt immensely lonely at this inevitable separation, feeling sad and longing because of her.

And all this also applied to Kaiser herself. So she wasn’t jealous. Because she understood that if she left Adele, the girl would also be lonely and miss her. Thinking of this, Kaiser came to Adele’s side and gently embraced her, letting the girl’s cheek rest against her chest.

“Ugh...w-what are you doing?” Adele blushed in surprise. But she probably understood Kaiser’s meaning. She was trying to say—Silly, I’m still here~. But Adele wanted them all! She wasn’t a child anymore, she was a greedy adult!

“Actually, I don’t think Adele needs to be too worried or sad.”

“...What do you mean?”

“Because think about it, is Dorothy the kind of girl who would obediently listen to what others tell her to do?” Undeniably, perhaps Kaiser’s words were just to comfort Adele, but they did ignite a glimmer of hope in the girl’s heart.

That’s right, Dorothy...isn’t someone who is easily subdued!
