After choosing to leave, they regretted it.

Aize, who had just finished his thoughts, raised his head:

"...Hmm? What's the solution?"

Charlotte gathered her magic.

Under the influence of the scarlet light, the remaining blood in the corpse gathered again into the air and formed a small ball again.

"You know, for vampires, blood carries our consciousness and is far more important than a physical body."

Aize nodded.

Of course he knew.

"Although this guy is a disgusting half-baked person, he still has some vampire elements. There should be some consciousness left in his blood."

"Could it be possible... that you can read the remaining memories?"

If this is really the case, let alone progress, it is possible that the truth will be revealed all of a sudden.

Aize was of course overjoyed.

However, Charlotte immediately poured cold water on him:

"It's possible, but this guy has a half-vampire physique, and with so little blood left, and having been dead for several days, the information we can read is very limited. I'm afraid there are only a few scattered scenes, and there's no guarantee they're related to the incident."

It seems that expecting to achieve everything in one step is too much.

But it doesn’t matter, it’s better than nothing.

Aize sighed softly, then nodded:

"It's okay, do it."

"Okay, then~"

Charlotte suddenly put on an inexplicable smile and even licked her lips lightly.

Then, before Aize realized what was happening, with a "swish", the high-level vampire flashed behind him.

Then, without saying a word, he held Aize's shoulders and pressed towards the base of his neck.

“…Huh? Aa ...

Aize finally realized what was happening and almost screamed as he struggled to break free from the other person, but accidentally fell to the ground.

He covered his neck which was almost bitten, and moved to the wall using his hands and feet.

"What are you taking advantage of this opportunity to do?!"

"whispering sound--"

Charlotte looked at Aize who ran away and curled her lips in dissatisfaction.

Then, he put on a fake smile:

"After reading the memory, the blood sample will be destroyed. There's only one chance. So, am I trying to synchronize our consciousness so that you can also see what's read?"

By injecting blood, vampires can indeed share their consciousness with humans.

But this guy obviously had more than just this plan just now, and he had even put the plan into Aize's mouth.

"If it's just for sharing, why bite the neck? Wouldn't a finger be enough?!"

"Tsk——"

Charlotte's smile instantly collapsed as her plan was shattered.

Hecate was stunned by his stinky face that looked so unhappy that it could scare even large monsters away in panic.

It can be said that the so-called aristocratic style of the vampires has been completely torn apart.

Of course, let's talk about it.

After letting out a little rage, the vampire girl sighed softly and waved at Aize:

"Okay, enough joking, come here quickly."

"...No, you were definitely not joking."

"Stop talking nonsense and stretch out your hands!"

After all, business is what matters.

Aize got up and walked in front of the other person.

Then, before he could make a move, Charlotte grabbed his right hand, pulled it in front of her, and put a finger into her mouth.

A warm, moist, and slightly sticky touch instantly enveloped me.

Charlotte didn't get straight into the action, but licked it gently with a look of enjoyment on her face.

The matter itself is quite serious, why is it so shocking?

Before Aize could think more, a sharp pain came.

Almost at the same time, a strong feeling of dizziness followed the pain in the fingertips and rushed straight to the brain along the blood vessels like an electric current.

"Woo——"

Aize felt dizzy and the scene in front of him changed immediately.

A blurry, unfamiliar, dim ceiling.

The owner of the perspective seemed to be lying on a bed, surrounded by people in black robes.

Then, there was an intense pain.

It felt like every part of my body was on fire.

Before Aize could think about the meaning, the scene changed again.

This time, it was dilapidated streets and a dark sky.

It was obviously the royal capital after the blood incident.

In a dark alley where sunlight could hardly reach, the owner of the vision was communicating with another dark shadow whose face was so blurry that it was impossible to see it clearly.

"...the additional...target is Ai...chance..."

“…I understand, but…”

"...Don't worry about them, as long as... you can..."

The content of the conversation was extremely vague and I could only get a very vague idea of what was going on.

I tried to concentrate and try to distinguish them, but was stopped by a severe headache.

After all, the consciousness in the blood is itself broken, and this fact cannot be changed. No matter how hard you try to listen, it will be in vain.

Then, the scene faded, the vision became pure white, and then gradually converged.

The familiar workshop scene appeared before my eyes again.

Aize himself was being supported by Hecate, so he did not fall directly to the ground.

Charlotte came very close and looked at him with a worried look on her face.

When he found that Aize had regained consciousness, he quickly grabbed him and shook him a few times.

"What happened? I didn't expect my consciousness to be shattered like this. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have come up with this idea!"

Directly linked to an overly fragmented consciousness, its dangers can be imagined.

But fortunately, it was just a brief discomfort and there were no aftereffects.

"It's okay. It's okay now."

Aize shook his head, gently pushed away Hecate who was supporting him, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and stood firm again.

"Did you also see the two scenes just now?"

"Yes."

"Any ideas?"

The girl with wine-red hair shook her head:

"I don't understand, but what I can confirm is that these two memories were recorded after the transformation was complete. It seems that the content before the transformation was completed was not recorded in the blood."

This directly filtered out a lot of spam, which was a big help.

But what does this mean?

The first scene, most likely in a magic workshop, should be the process of transformation, or the result after transformation.

The second scene... theoretically speaking, it should be about arranging the mission to assassinate himself.

But why does it always feel like something is wrong?

Combining the newly obtained fragmentary information, Aize once again began to recall the scene of the so-called assassination and the various suspicious details involved.

Then--

“…was it intentional?”

A more reasonable inference came to mind.

Chapter 78 The End of the Brave Aize Has Arrived

Even when thinking back on the sudden assassination a few days ago and the subsequent silencing, Aize still feels full of complaints.

At that time, he used the fact that the force to which the vampire assassin belonged was weak as a temporary explanation.

But with the release of the autopsy results, this explanation was completely overturned.

This existence, unprecedented in the long history, is between humans and vampires and cannot be created by a force with insufficient strength.

This makes the assassination even more suspicious.

Sending a weak and half-baked person has a very small chance of success, but the information sent by the corpse after death is enough to overturn the entire situation.

Aize doesn't think this kind of operation, which is standard for a mentally retarded villain in a children's show, will appear in reality.

Combined with the flashback just now, Aize came to a definite conclusion.

The dialogue in the second scene seems more like incitement than ordering someone to assassinate him.

That is, the assassination attempt on her was not instructed by the girl's real superiors, but was the result of the instigation of a third-party force and the assassin's own desire to stand out.

The purpose, from the very beginning, was to deliberately provide intelligence to himself.

If explained in this way, the logic of the assassination itself makes sense, but it also raises new questions.

There is almost no doubt that the force that controls the blood plague and can even use it for human transformation is 100% the mastermind behind the Royal Capital Incident.

So what is this force that can incite one-on-one?

The fact that they were able to communicate calmly instead of fighting directly shows that they should have maintained some kind of cooperative relationship with the mastermind, at least to a certain extent.

But since it is a cooperation, why do they do such a backstabbing thing?

In any case, it has been further confirmed that there are multiple forces in the capital and each has its own plans.

The remaining question... in addition to analyzing the blood plague, we still need to further clarify the identity of this half-blood clan.

"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

After confirming that Aize was really fine, Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief and said so.

Aize also immediately came back to his senses from his thoughts:

"What? Is it so urgent?"

"I can't help it. I'm hungry. That last time, my appetite was whetted. But if someone is willing to lend me their neck, I can stay."

As she spoke, Charlotte licked her lips as if she was still unsatisfied.

It should be referring to the blood that came into contact with Aize's finger when he bit it open when their consciousnesses just synchronized.

It is a situation where the drug is inhaled but not completely inhaled.

For vampires with a strong appetite, this situation is probably no different from... teasing.
