Chapter 150 Dusk Courtyard
The standards of Dusk Villa are very high. Come to think of it, as a vampire whose metabolism can be exchanged for a lot of devil gold coins, it doesn’t seem too difficult to understand that he would take classes in a castle-like teaching building.
Follow Vic through a cobblestone path in the dense forest. The environment here is similar to that of the De Man Hotel, but the surrounding woods are larger than that of the De Man Hotel and the environment is more quiet.
Although the evergreen trees and grasses add some greenery, a closer look reveals that the plants here are all vegetation that can adapt to the breath of death.
The overall design of the teaching building is classical and solemn, and it is located deep in the dense forest.
In addition to a cobblestone path leading directly to the teaching building, there are also some lost demons who like to play pranks hidden in the surrounding dense forests.
The appearance of these lost monsters is somewhat similar to that of fox badgers.
Because vampires have certain charm abilities, and they lack resistance to the blood of the opposite sex.
The various designs of the location of Dusk Courtyard are mainly to prevent students who are looking for death from approaching here.
In fact, Dusk Villa does not only teach potions, nor is it a class specially prepared for vampires.
The original purpose of the Dusk Villa was to open enrollment to all demons.
However, not to mention that demons have their own heritage, and most demons are in the demon kingdom 'Alan'. Before finding their own master, they are basically in a state of seclusion.
Vampires and werewolves are two special groups of demons. They do not belong to the 'Alan' Islands. Because they want to integrate into the human world with a relatively normal identity, the two seem to have become the representatives of demons in major magic academies.
As for the Dusk House in the Sprinkler branch, it is obvious that vampires are the mainstream here. Compared with werewolves, they are absolutely the stronger side.
"Hi, Vic." Two young men leading horses greeted Vic in a familiar and natural manner.
The building area hidden in the dense forest, in addition to teaching buildings, also has student dormitories, stables, training grounds, and even a small church.
The young people riding horses in front of him were a man and a woman, both of whom were very good-looking. Vic nodded at them but did not greet them in return.
"They have received the first embrace of the vampires from the school students. They are converted vampire followers. They usually help their masters with odd jobs. Their blood-fanged canines have been pulled out, and they have legal identities." Vic pointed to the distance and said to Mu Hua.
On the neat lawn, in the direction of Vic's finger, there was a lush oak tree. Under the tree, several women of different styles sat on a picnic blanket, enjoying the sunshine and desserts.
After the morning opening ceremony, the freshmen were led back to their respective school areas by their instructors.
The class time in other school districts is pretty normal from 9 to 5. It's not even noon yet, but the evening courtyard is still in the break period.
Just as its name suggests, classes at Dusk Courtyard start after 5pm and each class usually lasts less than two hours.
Teachers only need to teach three classes a week to complete their working hours. During the rest of the time, students may ask the teachers some questions. Whether or not to guide them depends entirely on the teacher's mood.
Super easy working hours, this is also the main reason why Mu Hua agreed to Caroline and was willing to come here to work. It is definitely not just for the purpose of bleeding vampires...
"Vegetarians? Haha, but are you sure these secondary vampires are not here for vacation?" Mu Hua asked with a smile.
Vampires are an immortal species.
Without the help of external objects, even with excellent physical fitness, the maximum lifespan of humans is probably only around three hundred years.
The normal lifespan of a vampire is 500 years, but depending on their physique it can reach about 1,000 years. Humans who are transformed into secondary vampires by them can also have the same long lifespan as them.
The vampires in this world do not have fatal weaknesses like fear of sunlight and garlic as described in the legend of Mu Hua’s previous life.
However, accepting the vampire's embrace is equivalent to signing a slavery contract with the vampire.
Secondary vampires have a stronger urge to suck blood and are more dangerous than vampires. However, if their fangs are pulled out, their urge to suck blood can be eliminated. They are what Mu Hua calls vegetarians.
"The demons come to the academy only to dispel people's inherent impression of them as mysterious and fearful."
“They don’t actually need to learn anything from us.”
"The class time at Dusk Courtyard is also designed to give students here more time to choose other subjects."
"They usually go to other school districts for classes, mainly to make the students more accustomed to their presence." Vic said without much emotion. "Face recognition? Haha." Mu Hua chuckled.
No wonder Caroline doesn't care about his knowledge of potions. Coming to Dusk Villa to teach is more like coming to supervise and restrain the vampires here.
The IQ of demons is generally very high. Due to the existence of life potions, the knowledge of the potion system among vampires is also very comprehensive.
Rather than saying that she valued Mu Hua's talent for alchemy, it would be more accurate to say that what Caroline really valued was Mu Hua's spellcasting ability.
After all, Mu Hua has developed his own unique magic, and some of his highly skilled magic may be more likely to subdue those unruly young vampires.
"It doesn't matter what you think."
"But, I hope you can understand that the vampires who enter Dusk Villa all have the intention of integrating into the human world. And werewolves are of no value." Vic glanced at Mu Hua with a little arrogance.
"I don't quite understand. Maybe Teacher Vic can explain it a little more clearly." Mu Hua chuckled. Vic's warning tone also made Mu Hua's eyes cold.
Mu Hua is used to being polite to others. At the same time, he is also very used to poking people in the waist in a polite manner. If he shows his teeth after talking to someone for just a few words, that is not being straightforward, but being a mad dog.
Just because he was polite to Vic didn't mean he could accept Vic always looking at him in a bad light.
Vic is a very standard necromancer: gloomy, self-centered, unruly, and realistic. Mu Hua is unable to confirm whether he is extreme or not.
But you must never treat this kind of person too well. It is a common practice for them to take advantage of you. If you keep showing kindness to them, it will only make them become even more aggressive.
"Werewolves are more aggressive than vampires."
"Teacher Mu Hua, sometimes we shouldn't take small frictions between students too seriously, as this may bring unexpected benefits." Vic stopped and turned to look at Mu Hua.
"Teacher Vic, you should call me Professor." Mu Hua glanced at Vic arrogantly, and walked towards the teaching building without stopping.
The arrival of the two attracted the attention of some students downstairs. Although the castle covers an area not smaller than the Deman Hotel, there are very few students here.
There are less than twenty students who can be considered as vampires in the true sense, and they should already be waiting in the classroom.
As for these secondary vampires outside the teaching building who were enjoying life like aristocrats, Mu Hua had basically no interest in them.
Although these secondary vampires transformed from humans have become immortal, their blood has no medicinal value.
"Haha, Professor Mu Hua?" Mu Hua's arrogance drew Vic's sarcastic laughter.
"Professor, I think I must remind you that some of the students here may be more than twice your age."
"I've been looking forward to your self-introduction." Vic said leisurely behind Mu Hua, but the faint deathly aura emanating from him showed that he was not at peace.
Breath of death?
Mu Hua looked back at Vic. This was indeed a pure necromancer. Before he adapted to the death energy, some parts of his body must have been permanently eroded by the death energy.
If such a person wants to maintain a human body, he probably won't live very long.
If you don't want to transform yourself into a lich, accepting the vampire's embrace seems to be a good choice.
No wonder Vic highly praised vampires in his words.
The First Embrace, like the signing of a slavery contract, requires the subjugation of the dominated at a soul level.
Even though there is no problem on Vic's side, vampires have very high standards, especially in terms of appearance and temperament.
Looking at Vic's rough face, Mu Hua shook his head and sighed:
I'm afraid there's no hope for this guy. It might be more likely that he'll find a secondary vampire to eat and transform into a zombie.
