House Witch

Chapter 834 833. Bite back

 Because of this sudden change, the atmosphere in the originally harmonious banquet hall suddenly became tense.

Among the crowd, a witch who was chatting with someone also sensed the sharp gaze of the otaku witch. She turned her head slightly in surprise. She didn't expect that she would be discovered, and she didn't expect that Lecti would try to betray her. The traitor did not die immediately from the blood-burning curse.

This person is Miranda who was sent by the Vanzhuo family to attend the banquet. She ranks fifth among the thirteen princes.

 At the same time, she is also the elder who gave Lecti her first embrace.

The strict hierarchical system of the vampires cannot be maintained solely by consciousness. The main reason why the lower vampires cannot resist the upper vampires is the blood-burning curse carried in the sublimated blood.

They were first embraced as vampire witches, and after possessing the power brought by the sublimated blood, they naturally had to pay a corresponding price, and this price was that they could not help themselves.

As long as they are obedient and sensible, the sublimated blood will give them strength and become their assistance. However, once they disobey and betray, a single thought from the superior will be enough to cause the sublimated blood in the lower vampires to go berserk and self-immolate.

This is equivalent to wearing an explosive collar around your neck.

 Hence, as an elder, Miranda actually has the authority to decide Lecti's life or death with a single thought.

However, as the only one of her first "children" who has climbed to the position of Marquis, Miranda has always loved this "daughter". If possible, she is not willing to let Lectie die. of.

 After all, although this "daughter" is a little weaker now, she is already one of the three marquises of the Vanzhuo family and has an important vote in the marquis meeting.

With the mother and daughter teaming up, now that Grand Duke Fanzhuo is sleeping, the Fanzhuo family is almost her sole authority, and the remaining old rival as the sixth prince can only grit his teeth and suffer.

 But once this useful "daughter" is lost, it means that Miranda loses an important vote at the Marquis Meeting, and may be counterattacked by her old rival.

 After all, that guy also has a talented junior who is eyeing the position of Marquis every day.

 It’s just that it was clearly not the time to hesitate just now.

In fact, Miranda still hasn't figured out what happened. She clearly just sent Lecti to perform a very simple test mission, and she was watching from the side. This should be a sure thing, but it happened. An accident happened.

From the perspective of Miss Prince, she saw Lecti rushing forward very forcefully, and then using classic coercion and inducement to lure the singer. These were all old tactics, and from Miranda's point of view, there was no need to point them out. Regarding the problem, she herself followed the same routine.

The refusal of the singing girl girl next surprised Miss Wanghou, but she didn't care. After all, when the gap in status reaches a certain level, there are things that you can't say no to just because you want to. .

Faced with the influence of the Vanzhuo family, the singer lady has no right to refuse.

So, she was very satisfied to see that the singer lady was about to succumb, but then an accident happened again. Behind the gourmet count of Dracula's family, a young witch who looked very weak walked away. When I came out, I seemed to want a hero to save the beauty and fight against injustice.

Miranda, who had been paying attention to this, was almost happy. Although this young behavior seemed stupid, for an ancient witch like her who had lived for tens of thousands of years, it was actually quite memorable. .

 After all, this is the taste of youth, which is different from the old people like them who are old and lifeless.

To be honest, Miranda quite admired this young man. As a reward for making her feel happy after a long absence, she even thought about giving this brave little guy a chance to "transform" after the banquet was over. She could personally For his first love.

 Well, what an old man like her likes most is young and energetic little witches like this. She is looking forward to what this vitality will taste like.

 However, Miss Prince's joy did not last too long, because she could not understand what happened next.

From her perspective, Lecti just said a few words to the brave young witch, and then the young witch just reached out and touched her forehead, but the next moment, her "daughter" He actually yelled in a frightened and unsightly manner, which somewhat embarrassed the Vanzhuo family.

This also made Miranda very dissatisfied, but before she could get angry, the next moment she sensed the raging rebellious thoughts in Lecti.

Well, the Burning Blood Curse has its own mind-reading ability. As long as it senses that the host has thoughts of betrayal, it will immediately send an alarm directly to the host's elders.

Now, Miranda senses the particularly determined rebellious evil thoughts in this "daughter".

Without any time to think, Miss Wang Hou decisively launched the blood-burning curse.

Although she has her own selfish motives, she is still a member of the Vanzhuo family, and her loyalty to the family is unquestionable.

Although she cherished her daughter Lecti very much, if she had to choose between her daughter and her family, she would 100% choose the family. Even when Lecti felt rebellious in her heart, she was no longer herself. 's daughter.

Anything that may pose a threat to the family is an enemy and must be stifled and eliminated resolutely. This is what she has been doing for several years. She has long forgotten why she did this in the first place. Anyway, she is completely used to it now and has become instinctive.

 But this **** accident has happened again.

　　Three times. Is today an unexpected day? Why are they all accidents?

Obviously she looks like a little witch with only 100,000 mana, but when she raises her hand, an instantaneous forbidden spell stops time, and she even accurately locates herself among so many people in the venue in an instant. This is outrageous.

Miranda now even really wonders if she is too old and is hallucinating, otherwise how could she see such outrageous things.

As a vampire witch, Miss Wang no longer looks at people based on their appearance. Anyway, a witch's appearance is too deceptive and has little reference value. She knows people by their blood.

Although she is not as sensitive to the smell of blood as the junior named Gourmet not far away, she can still guess the age of a witch from the smell of blood.

The full vitality that permeates this young witch is definitely the smell of a young witch in her teens, not an old guy like her who has lived for tens of thousands of years but still looks like a girl. The smell of the blood of the two is Different.

 But it’s really been a long time since we’ve seen each other. Are all the young people today so wild?

However, at this moment, she understood why Lecti suddenly tried to rebel. This stupid daughter must have accidentally fallen into the trap of this little witch who pretended to be a pig and eat a tiger. She was probably controlled by the other party and was directly incapacitated. It's up to you.

So, is this little witch from a spiritual school?

Miranda's thoughts were flowing rapidly in her mind.

However, because they were exposed by the mysterious little witch, the celebrities in the Night City who originally tried to curry favor with Miranda suddenly dispersed. This bunch of outsiders are so shrewd.

 And she had no choice but to stand up and face this magical little witch.

Of course, she is not panicked at all. Although this little guy does have some abilities, for now, he does not pose any threat to her. She is different from that useless daughter. Even if they are in the same realm, their strength is The difference is huge.

 Normally speaking, Lecti cannot survive a hundred moves in her hands, so she can abuse her at will.

 Besides, even if she is caught, she is my "daughter" and I can do whatever I want. This is my freedom as her "elder".

Miss Wanghou is very confident about this. Besides, where does this little guy have the face to hold himself accountable? It should be him who wants to hold her accountable. If she hadn't controlled people randomly and triggered the blood-burning warning on Lecti, How could I possibly kill this precious daughter?

 You should compensate my daughter for this little guy.

Well, pay yourself to me.

The tall and graceful princess, who looked like a blooming red rose, smiled. She licked her lips and did not mourn her dead "daughter" for a moment. After all, she only needed to recover Lecti's sublimated blood later. She would soon have a new and better daughter.

"You should give me an explanation. Miss, why did you attack my daughter? I suspect that you are spying on the secrets of our Vanzhuo family."

Miranda directly turned around and slapped him with a big hat.

She had just been paying attention to the situation there, and naturally knew the identity of this young genius witch. She was the stepdaughter of Lilith's child.

Tsk, this is actually a member of the Dracula family.

Miss Prince knows that Lilith, a former vampire, hopes to return to the family recently. This banquet at the Dracula family is probably just to announce the return of this third lady.

After all, this is the territory of Dracula's family. With Camilla and Elizabeth watching, she can't really **** people away, so she has no choice but to use her power to overwhelm them. At least she has to take advantage of the righteousness first. .

Hmm, just keep firmly in mind that the little witch attacked Lecti first. This was a provocation to the Vanzhuo family, and it also caused the Vanzhuo family to lose a marquis. For this, the Dracula family must give an explanation.

Well, since my daughter is dead, the task of testing today will naturally fall on her as the mother, which is also a good excuse to use her strength.

Miss Wanghou quickly planned everything in her mind. She felt that she had a great advantage this time. After all, she was a mother whose daughter had just died, and her buff stack was full.

 And such a big movement here finally alerted the Dracula family.

 “What’s going on? What happened?”

Grand Duke Loli came to the scene with her three daughters. Originally, they wanted to wait for the guests to arrive before making their final appearance, but now they had to come.

Miranda, who was quite calm at first, trembled when she saw Dracula, and suddenly felt a little panicked.

After all, this is the shadow of the famous tree. This is the oldest duke. He is an ancient existence older than the witch. Not to mention her as a young marquis, even if his own Grand Duke Vanzhuo meets this oldest duke, Everyone has to bend down and salute first.

Damn it, how could such a trivial matter alert this adult to appear in person?

Miss Wang Hou was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt happy.

Good guy, the Grand Duke Dracula has personally stepped down to suppress the situation. You can imagine how bad the situation in the Dracula family is now. You must know that the Grand Duke is not on duty now. Logically speaking, she should Those who are sleeping should not be awake.

Hmm, now that I have the information, I can go back and hand over the mission.

And what’s wrong with the Grand Duke? Who doesn’t have a Grand Duke? Even if Archduke Dracula is present in person now, she is still standing on the moral high ground.

Anyway, it was the little witch who did this first. Otherwise, why would my Lecti's blood-burning curse be activated? It's impossible for her to be really rebellious, right?

 Impossible, absolutely impossible. I have watched this child grow up for thousands of years. How can I, my "mother", not understand her character?

 Although there is indeed a ideological generation gap between today's young people and their older generation, there is no need to doubt Lecti's loyalty to the family.

 When she thought that she had a clear conscience, Miranda immediately regained her composure.

 “I’ve met the Duke.”

　　She first bowed respectfully to the loli-shaped Grand Duke, performed a skirt-lifting ceremony, and then got straight to the point.

“Your Excellency, the blood-burning curse on Lecti has occurred, and the Vandro family needs an explanation.”

She didn’t add any extravagance or anything like that, but told the truth.

After all, lying in front of the most powerful Duke is a recipe for death.

Besides, everyone is a vampire witch, so they naturally understand what it means to activate the blood-burning curse, so there is no need to explain too much.

Sure enough, when Grand Duke Loli, who had an angry face at first and was obviously dissatisfied with the fact that these juniors from the Vanzhuo family dared to cause trouble in her place, heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at her own house. This cheap granddaughter I just met.

 Ah this

 Can't you, kid, be more at peace? If you want to investigate, why should you do it in public instead of somewhere else?

 The Duke of Loli blinked his eyes, conveying such a signal in his eyes.

She knew the identity of this cheap granddaughter, the Grand Inquisitor, and also knew that the other party came with a mission. In addition, Miranda did not lie, so there seemed to be only one truth.

 In response, Dorothy: “.”

 The house witch was silent. She was really confused now.

　　No, it was obviously someone else who committed the murder, but I was the one who saved them. How could everything become my fault?

And what did I do? I, I just beat her up and then cursed, "Go away," it was that crazy Marquis lady who bowed to me for no apparent reason, okay?

 Dorothy died unjustly.

“Grandma, I said I was innocent, but I really wasn’t responsible for that burning blood curse. This is the first time I’ve even heard of it. Do you believe me?”

The otaku witch also blinked, innocently responding to the cheap grandmother's look.

 She is really unjust.

 “Yeah, yeah, I believe it, I believe it.”

Grand Duke Loli responded with her eyes, but her droopy little face clearly showed that she believed in a ghost.

　　Dorothy: "Oh, my reputation has been damaged."

  She cursed in her heart.

 Although she thought carefully about her reputation, the more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became.

　　Ah, it seems that with regard to the many rumors about her that are getting more and more outrageous, it is her way to ignore them and directly attack them face to face.

After all, you are a ruthless person who can copy even the ancestral court of angels and the cathedral of the King of Gods at will. Is there anything else you can't do?

ˆˆemm

“Okay, okay, stop talking later, I will handle it, don’t worry, I won’t let anything happen to you.”

 The eyes of the Loli Grand Duke were soothing to the cheap granddaughter who had gotten into trouble.

Well, she is ready to rely on her old age.

 There is no other way. Since I am not taking any responsibility, I can only do this. Older age is really easy to use.

  She couldn't let Dorothy have an accident in her own home anyway, whether the child was reasonable or not. After all, she called me grandma.

 As the family that pays the most attention to family relationships, the biggest tradition of the Dracula family is called.

 Protect shortcomings.

However, before the Grand Duke Loli could begin to display her superb acting skills that were once popular in Sin City when she was young, Dorothy suddenly pulled the grandmother aside.

 You can just rest, everyone said that our Witch's House has taken over the security work for this banquet.

Dorothy has not yet reached the point where she can only ask her parents to help her when she is bullied.

Well, at least the one in front of her doesn’t require her to sacrifice her moral integrity.

"Miss, please don't talk nonsense. You said I moved my hands. Why don't we ask the person involved?"

The house witch turned her head and looked at the Marquise who had been stopped by time, as if she had turned into a piece of time and space amber, and then said this.

"Forehead"

Hence, everyone else also looked at Lecti, and then all of them had puzzled expressions.

 Isn’t this already a dead person? Although she is still alive after being stopped by time, once the time stop is released, she will turn into ashes in the next second.

 Miss Marquis is half dead.

   Damn it, I’m going to be manipulated by Qian Baoxiu again
