Heartthrob: The vampire princess doesn't want to be a stand-in

Chapter 131 Rose Knight

"There is the Dean's promise."

"I can go there with peace of mind."

Lilith took a deep breath, and her heart finally settled down.

"Liz..."

"Have you really thought about it?"

Ollie's eyes were red as he held Lilith's raised hand and spoke word by word.

He was just a bystander from beginning to end, and he still couldn't bear to see his childhood sweetheart Lilith die like this.

"I owe you."

"It has to be returned eventually."

Lilith held Ollie's cold hand and glanced sideways at Garland, who had his eyes closed.

Then she smiled softly, her eyes slightly misty, yet shining with a dazzling starlight that had not been seen in many years.

This man is powerful, wealthy, and has a good appearance.

But for her, he lay here dying, or even sleeping forever.

Not worth it, really not worth it.

Garland was born to be a king who was high above everyone else and looked down upon all living beings.

He shouldn't be like this now, unable to get the love he wants because she is desperate and crazy.

Even humble prayers.

"Okay... I..."

"respect your choice."

Ollie tightened his grip on Lilith's hand, but eventually let go.

He used up all his strength in this action.

Now Garland and Vincent are both unable to speak, but he has to decide Lilith's life or death.

He also had to watch Lilith die... This was undoubtedly a torture that would force him to collapse.

"Brother, if there is a next life."

"I am willing to experience all your pain and despair, and to love you but not be able to get you."

"I am also willing to accompany you till the end of time and love you well."

Lilith sat next to Garland and leaned down to whisper in Garland's ear.

I don’t know if Garland could hear her, and I don’t know if she was talking to herself or to Garland.

After all, she was selfish in this life.

But her heart was so small that it couldn't hold anyone except Vincent.

She could only keep avoiding him, feeling guilty about Garland's deep affection for her.

So, if there really is a next life.

She was willing to go through everything he had endured and respond to his feelings.

Maybe he wanted to make it up to him out of guilt, or maybe he truly hoped that in the distant future she could fall in love with him and respond to him sincerely.

The unconscious Garland seemed to be still conscious and in his mind.

It seemed like there was always a beam of light guiding him, trying to wake him up.

When Lilith heard that Ollie respected her wishes, she smiled with relief, then showed her fangs and fiercely tore open the pulse at her wrist.

In an instant, blue blood spurted out. Yuri looked at Lilith's erratic movements due to excessive blood loss, and immediately reached out to support her.

Everyone present stared intently at the Blue Blood Rose, quietly waiting for it to absorb all of Lilith's blood.

Garland, who was gradually losing consciousness, did not hear what Lilith was going to do in the end.

However, even though he was unconscious, he could still feel the determination that frightened him.

His body functions were declining rapidly, but his brain was urging him to do something.

But now he couldn't even open his eyes, let alone move his hands.

Garland could only struggle, but he was unable to resist the rapid decline of his body functions.

He could only listen clearly to Lilith's determined words and feel her life gradually fading away.

It was not until fresh blood was forcibly injected into his body that Garland woke up from the pain of bone-gnawing.

The pain made him unable to think of anything, as if it was tearing his internal organs apart and putting him back together.

"Brother, you must hold on."

Lilith continued to supply her own blood and strength, and their massive loss also consumed her life.

Consuming her already limited consciousness, she was not as powerful as imagined.

There is no endless supply of power for two people to consume.

Only those who have personally experienced the purification technique know how powerful its absorption ability is.

"Brother, I know I am selfish."

But I’m really not that strong.”

"Nothing is more important to me than your being alive."

"Perhaps you will blame me for escaping reality. You have always protected me in the past."

"But Liz has grown up, and this time I am willing to exchange my life for yours."

"In exchange for your eternal peace."

At this moment, Garland's mind was already clear.

He heard clearly the conversation between Lilith and Yuri.

But he could do nothing but stay awake and feel the pain.

Listening clearly to Lilith's resolute words, feeling her life gradually fading away.

"Take care of Garland and Vincent while I'm gone."

Lilith knew deep down that Yuri would never contradict her.

Moreover, Yuri understood better than anyone that in this vast world, only purification and she could save Garland.

No, to be exact, it's also a gamble.

Perhaps, during the spell, Lilith would die from excessive blood loss.

Or maybe Garland would die because he couldn't bear the excruciating pain during the blood transfusion process.

After all, no one knows what the outcome will be.

She could only gamble with her entire life.

The Lan family needs Garland, he still has a bright future, he can't just die like this.

And she, as the fuse of this war, died a worthy death.

Yuri looked at Lilith, whose life was gradually fading away, with tearful eyes, and exchanged glances with Ollie.

Suddenly his expression became solemn and he straightened his clothes carefully.

Then, Yuri knelt on one knee facing Lilith.

He used his knight's sword, which had been bathed in the blood of countless people, to cut his ring finger.

"The sixth in line to the Rodriguez family."

"Yuri, Rodriguez, swear by blood and sword."

Yuri spoke the first oath in a powerful and resonant voice.

The faith in those clear pupils spoke of the centuries-old chivalrous spirit that he inherited.

"I swear to fight for His Majesty Garland with my courage, strength, and wisdom."

As he uttered the second oath, he straightened his back.

The blood from the ring finger flowed down the sword, witnessing everything that happened before his eyes.

Lilith glanced at him weakly, and her hand, which had originally lost its strength, suddenly gathered strength again, and she tried to squeeze out the last bit of blood.

"I swear to be loyal to His Highness Garland for the rest of my life, no matter the cost."

By the third oath, Yuri's eyes were already filled with mist.

The sight of Lilith and Garland finally blurred.

"I swear that I will never break my promise to Her Highness Lilith."

"Spend your life with determination."

The fourth oath, looking at Lilith's appearance, his tears fell and streaked across his face.

The crystal clear tears, like Yuri as pure as white paper, fell drop by drop on the ground beneath their feet.

The person who took the oath finally choked up, and even though his voice was trembling, it was still powerful.
