Chapter 565 The Little Girl and the Blood Moon Prayer Ceremony
Mary couldn’t be considered a pureblood vampire.
She wasn’t created through a superior vampire’s Embrace. Instead, she was born in the biology lab of an adept. As such, she more obviously suffered from the limitations of bloodline shackles compared to true vampires.
Under ordinary circumstances, her advancement to Second Grade should have come way before Greem, considering her frenzied slaughter in the Knight’s Plane.
It was the existence of the bloodline shackles that caused her power to remain stagnant for such a long time.
This time, they had successfully captured the source of her blood– Leicester. The shackles that bound Mary to the ground would no longer exist once she completed this blood transfusion and purifying ceremony. Advancing to Second Grade was a certainty with her talent!
Greem had initially intended to personally host the blood transfusion ceremony for Mary and witness her rebirth into a path without bloodline limitations. However, Alice was a far better choice compared to him when it came down to both experience or qualifications. Thus, Greem had no choice but to step down and hand over the hosting of the ceremony to Alice.
Greem retreated to a corner of the secret room and silently watched as the fairy waved her magic wand. Light shone in the room as Mary’s armor was removed, and her naked body slowly floated into a semi-translucent casket.
Alice was the host of the ceremony. Naturally, she had the clearest sense of the changes happening to the blood moon energy she was guiding. Alice raised her head and looked doubtfully into the horizon the moment the little girl started stealing the blood moon radiance. She then turned and looked toward the location of the girl.
After some thought, Alice chose not to take any direct action!
The other one to sense the changes besides Alice was Greem. As the owner of the tower, he was the most sensitive to all energy flows within it.
Greem immediately discovered the abnormality when the blood moon energy split off. He flew into a rage.
To think that someone dared to intervene in a magic ceremony that he was protecting!
Greem would be furious beyond belief if this interrupted the ceremony and caused Mary to fail!
Greem suppressed his emotions and had his Spirit follow the energy flow. He passed through the walls of the tower, made it past magical defenses, and quickly locked onto the strange little girl.
Who was she? Why hadn’t he seen her before?
The question had just arisen in Greem’s mind when he immediately understood the situation thanks to the Chip’s reminder.
It was Eva’s room, and Greem knew this girl as well, for he was the one who helped her deliver the child. However, ordinarily, the baby girl that Eva gave birth to should only be four to five months old. Yet this girl was clearly four to five years old.
If it weren’t for the soul flux and mental consciousness information recorded by the Chip matching with the girl, Greem would have suspected the baby girl being swapped with another person while he was away from the tower.
What shocked Greem even more was the fact that the girl already possessed the Spirit of a pseudo-adept.
To possess pseudo-adept level Spirit a mere four to five months after birth! How shocking was this girl’s talent!
Though the girl was odd, she was still Gargamel and Eva’s daughter.
Greem understood this and had no choice but to suppress his anger. He used his authority as the tower’s owner to cut off the blood moon energy that the girl had redirected toward herself.
“Little person, did your parents not tell you it’s bad to take someone else’s stuff?” Greem’s cold spiritual pressure was remotely projected into the soul of the girl, “It’s only a warning this time! If there’s a next time, you can be sure I will punish you.”
A Second Grade adept’s spiritual pressure couldn’t possibly be something that a five-year-old girl could endure! Even as talented as she was, there was no way she could square off against a powerful Second Grade. Just the aftershock of Greem’s Spirit was too much for her.
The little girl was jolted into tears. She immediately fell to the ground on her butt.
Eva sensed the disturbance in her room and quickly hurried back from the banquet hall on the second level. She hugged her child the moment she entered the room.
“Emelia, my sweetheart, my baby, what happened? Did some jerk bully you?” The anxious and protective Eva didn’t mind her words at all. Greem felt speechless as he watched with his mental consciousness in the room.
“Eva, keep a close eye on your kid! She already interrupted Mary’s Blood Moon Prayer ceremony earlier… Hm? It seems the ceremony’s concluded. We will talk about this matter at a later time.” Greem’s mental consciousness hurriedly left halfway through the conversation.
The frightened little girl Emelia pouted and mumbled to herself as she lay in her mother’s embrace, “I just took a little bit, and he came chasing over. What a scrooge.”
However, the little girl’s expression had been changed into a terrified one when Eva lifted her up to look at her.
Eva had wanted to scold her a little, but she could only shake her head, sigh and start consoling her baby.
