Chapter 179 Agreement with Liara
Upon hearing such an audacious request, Veronica, of course, refused. Although the conditions were extremely tempting, the reward offered was quite overwhelming. Adam was greatly surprised by the price set for him.
Crystalize Dragon's Tears. Although it was just an abstract name, it didn't diminish its value. Perhaps it was the highest unit of currency that could be used. They looked like tears, so they were commented on similarly. It was only 8 cm in height and 5 cm in width, with a semi-transparent form resembling glass.
One Crystalize Dragon's Tear was equal to a hundred Platinum Dragon Stones. In other words, for Adam to stay in her company, she was willing to pay half a million Platinum Dragon Stones. That was... a lot. But, of course, that didn't mean Adam agreed.
"No way. Let's be more realistic, Liara. What the hell makes you think you can treat my son as a commodity? I won't give him away!" Veronica said in an irritated tone, pressing her cheek against Adam's and rubbing against him. She narrowed her eyes and snorted, "So, ask for something else."
"Impossible. Your request was insane from the start. This item was entrusted to me [email protected]... darn, I forgot I can't say his name. Anyway, I'll never give it away. Don't even hope for it," Liara replied with a categorical refusal, frowning and showing her irritation. "You're only alive because you're strong and because you're her sister. You know how unreasonable this request is."
"What? Weren't you ready to offer him in exchange just a few seconds ago?"
Liara snorted and turned her face, expressing clear dissatisfaction and disagreement with this situation. Adam wrinkled his nose in frustration, but he couldn't think of any idea on how to obtain this item. He sighed in disappointment.
"Selling myself into slavery isn't the smartest solution... I'm sure Anna will blame herself for it and won't be able to live properly. Besides, you'd have to be crazy to agree to this," he thought, biting his lower lip. Ignoring the warm breath near his neck, he continued to think, "I don't have anything suitable for trade. And for Veronika, asking for it would be the same as with Liara. It seems..."
That everything fell on his shoulders. He sighed and focused his attention on his inventory. However, even after searching there for quite some time, the only somewhat normal thing he found was a fruit of wisdom he had taken from Elfheim. In principle, it wouldn't be suitable for trade since, being a vampire, it would only harm her.
"Ha-a-a..." He sighed out loud and straightened his posture, looking directly into Liara's eyes. Despite feeling a slight dizziness when making eye contact with her beautiful red eyes, Adam began to speak, "Queen of Vampires, I truly need this item. However, I can't agree to your terms, so please suggest something else."
"Ho-o-o?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLiara crossed her arms over her chest, emphasizing her ample bosom, and her gaze filled with interest. It seemed that Adam's initiative to speak was approved from her side, unlike Veronica, who gritted her teeth in frustration.
"Alright, fine. You're a cute boy, so I'll make a concession... This item has material, moral, and scientific value for me. Essentially, you're asking for something very precious to me in exchange for my 'thank you,' if I may describe the behavior of a crazy bitch that way!" Liara explained, snorting and looking displeased at Veronica, who wanted to say something in response, but Adam asked her to remain silent for a moment. When Liara noticed he was focused, she continued to explain in a calm tone, "So, you can offer... a supply of your blood. I need twenty liters per week."
Adam didn't immediately respond to this offer and looked at Veronica, trying to understand from her expression if there were any hidden traps in this proposal. However, he saw only irritation and jealousy, but no signs of danger. He tilted his head to the side, curious.
"I don't want to sound rude, but it seems you have a special interest in demon blood. As far as I understand, it should be toxic, and an ordinary person, if they even ingest a drop of it, could die. So, why do you need it?" he asked with a sincere voice, raising an eyebrow. However, from the corner of his eye, he noticed that Veronica's facial expression contorted and looked as if she was preparing for the worst.
"Hm? What an interesting question, young man!" Liara said enthusiastically, grinning.
"Now it begins..." Adam didn't understand why Veronica looked so tired, but after a moment, he had an epiphany.
"Do you see, young man, as a vampire who has lived for a very long time, I enjoy every moment of my life. For me, blood is the finest delicacy, and it's well-known that anything causing you discomfort can also bring pleasure, right? That's how demon blood works. I once tasted the blood of a demon general back in the days when demons lived in Hell. And it left a strong impression on me; it tasted revolting, like eating an unripe persimmon, but there's something about it that appeals to you, isn't there? To me, trying everything new is the meaning of life, and it's worth living for. I once set a goal to taste the blood of royal demons, but Veronica wouldn't let herself be bitten, and [email protected] was too strong and terrifying for me to casually ask him for it. So when I met you..."
Liara seemed as if she'd been bitten by some incredible insect, and now she spoke non-stop. It seemed she didn't even take a breath between her new sentences. Veronica wrinkled her nose in disapproval, and Adam put on a smile. He suddenly felt like he'd gotten used to the fact that the women he spent time with talked for hours. Especially with Sierra, who, if she found a topic to discuss, would talk continuously for ten hours.
It seemed like such a displayed interest in her opinion had ignited the Queen of Vampires with renewed vigor, and with a bright smile, she began to describe in detail the taste of the most delicious blood she had ever tasted. Adam occasionally asked questions to which she joyfully responded.
Veronica, with a raised eyebrow, observed their lively conversation and couldn't help but think, "Are they a married couple? Why do they get along so well?"
In the end, after two hours had passed, Adam sighed. Liara was still talking, increasing the amount of information he needed to digest. While he enjoyed listening to others talk, it was honestly difficult to listen and nod intelligently when you didn't understand a thing.
"Recently, I met Isolde and asked her for a vial of her blood, to which I got a cruel refusal. She was somewhat mad, for heaven's sake! Has this arrogant bitch completely lost her mind?!" Liara said irritably, slamming her hand on the table.
"Isolde?" Adam asked with curiosity.
"You don't know her? Strange, this woman is quite popular among men, but never mind... she's the Witch Queen. I thought everyone in the outside world knew about her, didn't they?"
Internally, Adam was surprised, but externally, he showed only a face of understanding.
"An unexpected bonus to this show... it seems I can also find out the location of the Witch Queen and fulfill Ekaterina's dream. But perhaps, now is not the time," he thought and turned to Liara. "Lady Liara, regarding your offer... I'm willing to provide my blood. However, how long should this last?"
"Hehe. Just because you're handsome, I'll give you a discount... only a thousand years!" Liara replied with a mischievous grin.
"Fucking no! You, bitch! Why are you acting so carelessly, setting such a deadline?!" Veronica shouted.
"Okay, I agree," Adam responded.
"Huuuh?!"
Veronica was displeased with this outcome, but Adam didn't pay it any mind. It was important for him to get this item in this situation and return it to her as soon as possible. Hearing this, Liara smiled widely, and her fangs involuntarily extended.
"Then I'll start right away!"
"What?"
Before Adam could react, all of Veronica's barriers were shattered, and there was a slight tingling on his neck. From the corner of his eye, he noticed Liara sinking her fangs into him and beginning to suck his blood, while Veronica sat there with an unhappy face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe sensations were strange. Adam felt an itching all over his body and a certain amount of pleasure. However, if he were to put it bluntly, he didn't expect the method of draining to be like this. Imagining that this would continue for a thousand years, he bitterly smiled, but a good result required sacrifices.
This drinking lasted for an hour. Adam already felt a slight dizziness as his body quickly regenerated and replenished the lost blood.
"By the way, why is she drinking from my neck? This is essentially non-contact sex," he thought cynically, trying to distract himself from the headache. "Holy shit. The more I think about it, the less logic there is in her behavior."
A few hours later...
Adam lay helplessly in the carriage. It was Veronica's artifact that she had to use because he was completely drained of strength. Liara had drained all his blood, and it reminded him of the times when he donated his blood for transfusions.
But...
"At least I have it," thought Adam, looking at the sphere in his hand.
It appeared to be a common object with a rainbow-like shimmer inside, judging by its appearance. However, the overwhelming amount of energy inside it made it clear that it was no ordinary item. This was the "Right Eye of the Demon King," a legendary item that existed in this world only in three copies, including this one.
"Congratulations. Now this nymph will live," Veronica said with a displeased tone, arranging Adam in a kneeling position with a cushion under his knees.
"Yes... I feel like dog shit, but at least Anna will be able to live happily. That's all that matters," he mumbled, feeling himself losing consciousness.
A few minutes later, he was quietly snoring. Veronica sighed and gently brushed strands of hair from his forehead, which were covered in sweat. His face was pale, and every movement was accompanied by pain. However, from the satisfied expression on Adam's face, it was clear that the outcome had satisfied him.
"You fool..."
