Chapter Twenty-One Birthday Party

  "It's very pretty, it was given to you." He patted her shoulder and turned his head to see Lili taking out a snow-white dress with small ice-blue flowers from the gift box, pure and full of spirit.

  "Who gave it to me?" She took the foreign skirt, walked slowly in front of the mirror, compared the size for a moment, and the size should be just right...

  "I don't know, it says 'to you' above the signature." Lily shook her head, knowing that only people from Tsukino House would be at this banquet, and it wouldn't be a fish.

  "......Is that so? Then I'll wear it." Gently stroking the small flowers on the skirt, this flower...

  "Aren't you going to wear the dress you've already prepared? That one is cute too." Lili glanced at the girl holding a Western-style skirt, somewhat puzzled.

  "Ah, because this flower is called... Forget-me-not." A gentle smile, forget-me-not, eternal love, an unchanging heart, forever memories...

  …………

  ………

  From afar at the ball, I saw my brother wearing a casual overcoat with a black shirt underneath. His deep, dark red eyes gazed at the blood-red pills in his highball glass as he sat on the high platform, and everyone knew he was the king.

  "Kurenai, you're beautiful today." Akira gently kissed the back of the girl's hand, his eyes filled with tenderness.

  A snow-white Western-style dress adorned with ice-blue forget-me-nots, every floral pattern on the dress is handmade, simple yet elegant fabric, very valuable.

  "...... thank you for the dress you gave me." She felt a bit embarrassed, took back her hand and curtsied to him like a lady.

  "No, it's just that I happened to think she was suitable for you. Aoi Sakura, do you know what it means to wear a ring on the left hand's nameless finger?" Akira smiled softly and gently, then shifted her gaze to the ring on my hand.

  I couldn't help but slide down a few black lines, gently stroking the ring on my finger "I know...but it can't be pulled out, I've tried many ways, so I gave up."

  Looking at his smiling face, I involuntarily took a few steps back. The current brother is very dangerous "I'll go get him a onesie..."

  The noble vampires present gazed at the girl conversing with Kuran S-sama, and if not for the human aura emanating from her, they would have thought she was a child of pure noble blood.

  Because there are very few people like that among humans, and she somewhat resembles Lord Kubisuji in appearance. At her age, she's just a child. Before the dance party, Kuranosuke-sama had given orders not to harm that girl, but Lord Kubisuji couldn't possibly be a lolicon... So why...?

  "One, gift." Walking up to Icchi, who was cutting a cake, he silently handed him the Japanese sword whose name he had already forgotten.

  "Thanks, Kurenai-san." Ichi stroked the blade of the sword, drew it out, and lightly touched the edge of the blade, then a line was cut "Hahaha...it's really sharp."

  She pulled his hand over, licked his wound... it was sweet, and the wound disappeared instantly.

  Look up at the dazed Tiao, wave hand in front of his eyes, then being snapped back to reality by a ruthless Tiao who rubs his head "Kuiran... don't learn from Zhikui, and you don't need to drink blood, come eat cake instead."

  "Hmm, strawberry cake..." Staring at the five-layer giant cake, you can see that it's filled with strawberries inside.

  Received a cake, glanced at the person on the dark red soft sofa with his spare eyes, and tried to see if his brother liked sweets...

  "Hey, aren't you going to eat any cake?" The brother holding the plate with the cake on it looked like he was waiting for someone.

  "...if Sakura feeds me."

  "Oh, then I'll feed you."

  Sat down beside him, lowered his head and used a fork to divide the cake into small pieces, picked up one piece and handed it to his mouth.

  "Is it delicious?"

  "Mmm, very sweet."

  "Really? Ah-woo—so sweet."

  Like this, the vampires present looked at the loving couple in horror, one was the king they respected the most in their hearts, and the other was an ordinary but extremely tempting human being. How could a mere human sit together with Lord Akatsuki?!

  And Rukia, on the other hand, looked at that pair of people who were about to devour each other with a worried expression. If it weren't for that girl, or rather, if it were Kusaka Hikari, she would have torn her apart immediately. It's just that the girl resembled Ichigo-san so much that she couldn't bring herself to do it.

  Li Mo couldn't help but rub her temples, this idiot... actually sitting so openly and honestly beside the great master, taking turns feeding him...

  Hearing some noise, I saw Lantang and Xiao bringing Youji and Rei walking slowly over. Judging from Youji and Rei's expressions, they didn't seem to be here for the birthday party, but rather looked like they were looking for trouble...

  "How did you end up here?" Zero's eyes widened in surprise, though his icy gaze still fell on me and my brother.

  "Aoi Sakura! Don't you know this is a vampire's party? It's very dangerous." Yuuki looked at me worriedly, seemingly not understanding.

  "I came to attend Ito's birthday party, Ito is my classmate and they are all very friendly." Stuffed the last piece of cake into his mouth, glanced at Yuuki and Rei, Yuuki's soul color became a bit strange, turned dirty... "Are Yuuki and Rei also here to celebrate Ito's birthday?"

  "I was wondering, about today's Level E incident." Yuuki nervously glanced at Kaito and then at Rei, hesitantly speaking her mind.

  Akane couldn't help but rub her temples, Yuuki still knew about Level E, and if Yuuki kept pushing herself too hard, she would end up getting hurt.

  "Well, in that case, I won't disturb you anymore." Gently putting down the silver fork, after that their conversation, I couldn't intervene.

  Just as I was about to leave the dark red sofa, my hand was pinched and I looked up strangely "Huh?"

  "Don't leave their line of sight." After being reminded by my brother, I looked at him as he raised his hand to wipe something off my lips with his finger, licked it and furrowed his brow "One's blood?"

  "He was cut by the knife I sent, so I tasted a little." Unconsciously licked the corner of his lips, still with some sweet blood "I'll go get a drink."

  Brushing past Yuuki and Rei, he was looked at with a complex gaze by those silver eyes. He couldn't understand why a human would be so close to a vampire, but neither of them knew that I was also a vampire, so they both found that familiarity strange.

  Slowly walked over to the drink next to the cake, silently picked up a cup of pale pink stuff dissolved with blood clotting agent, looked like it tasted very bland.

  "Lee Toh, long time no see, even though it's only been a day." I glanced at the little boy with heterochromatic eyes who was staring at me from a nearby table and handed him a cup of water with a blood clotting agent.

  "Sneaking in quietly, because it looks lively here." Li Tu narrowed his eyes and smiled, looking very cute. "Miss, do you want to drink this? Only vampires can drink this, oh."

  He gently shook the cup and took a sip, then put it down with a look of distaste. "Too weak, tastes bad."

  "Isn't Huai Yan human? It's really bold to come to a vampire's party." Li Tu kicked his legs on the table.

  "I'm going to be an exchange student tomorrow, and before I leave school, I want to have some fun too. The vampires here are very gentle." Through the pale pink ** in my cup, I gaze at my brother and Yuki on the high platform. As long as he has Yuki, it's fine, whether it's me or her or someone else, as long as they're called Yuki, it's okay.

  "Exchange student?" Li Tu looked at me with some confusion, then whispered something "Just like Shu Li, likes to cause trouble..."

  "It's just two schools exchanging students for a certain period of time, and they'll be back soon." He explained to me, the principal cried and begged me that there was a child with strange abilities in that school, and he didn't feel at ease sending people from the night department, so he arbitrarily decided it would be me...

  "Hey, I'm off, bye, lovely Shuli." Li Tu's face flashed with a sly smile again, stroked the girl's cheek, and lightly kissed it before disappearing without a trace.

  He touched his cheek, which had just been kissed, with his hand... So what he said earlier was about the logic of trees, right?

  "Zhī kuí, come on." A slice of cake was cut off and handed over to Zhī kuí along with the knife.

  "Mm." Kikyo narrowed her eyes, drew out a knife, and accidentally cut one. Kikyo bent down, carefully licking the wound "Don't waste it."

  "Zhi Kui, I didn't plan on treating you specially." He let out a helpless sigh, withdrawing his hand.

  Watching a leech feeding on a begonia, it's really sad that there is still bloodshed on its birthday.

  "Zero! Headmaster Cross, I..." It seems Zero can't stand the bloodsucking around him. It's quite a bother for vampires who can't accept Blood Tablets.

  "Come dance with me, Yuuki."

  "I...!"

  Youji broke free from Lantang's hand and ran further away. Lantang gazed at Youji's receding figure, letting out a cold snort.

  "Nya nya! Kira-kun, I want cake too!" A yellow plushie popped out of my only pocket.

  "Kokoro, having cake stuck on your face is going to be a mess." It's Kokoro, the sealed beast of Kuruberusu, said to have been modeled after a lion. Suddenly appearing from a book is a moving electric toy that can eat and talk.
