Chapter 46: Chapter Forty-Five: Alexander Kovarnass

Midnight, a desolate mountain with broken tiles and ruined walls.

With a sound, a huge stone was pushed open, and a disheveled man walked out of the dark cave, looking at the bright moon in the sky, he muttered blankly: "I don't even know how long it's been; Nainai, I've been hiding alone in the dark, damp underground, with no one to talk to, and as for William, he now has only the intelligence of a beast, not even counting as a human."

That's right, the man is Su Qing.

After finishing downloading the Ancestral Werewolf Source Blood and locking William back into the iron coffin, he impatiently left the dungeon.

The reason is simply that the dungeon's environment is too damn torturous.

Surrounded by piles of livestock carcasses, a ferocious-looking werewolf, plus the damp, dark environment, he dared not sleep.

Fortunately, everything has ended.

After taking a good breath of fresh outside air, Su Qing found the small black hut where he had previously stayed, obtained living supplies, then took a good shower and changed clothes, restoring his spirits.

After confirming the direction to the town, he hurried all the way.

When he came, the speed was slow due to driving a large batch of livestock; now, traveling light alone, it only takes five hours to reach the livestock‑buying town.

He strode into the town and headed straight for the mayor's house.

Although the town is small, there are many odd jobs, and at this hour the mayor's lights are still on.

"Knock knock……"

A knocking sound came from outside; the mayor raised his head, frowned, and asked: "Who is it? So late."

While speaking, he opened the door and saw a person standing at the doorway; the mayor rubbed his presbyopic eyes, took a close look, and realized this was the yellow‑skinned Su Da Lao Ye who had come to their town to buy livestock over twenty days ago.

Coming at this time, could he be here to buy livestock again?

But the town no longer has any large livestock; now only young ones……

What a pity, such a big customer!

Various thoughts flashed through his mind; the mayor's face broke into a smile and he said warmly: "Sir, please come in."

"Good." Su Qing nodded and followed him inside.

After exchanging pleasantries, the mayor curiously asked: "Sir, I don't know what brings you back this time."

Since downloading the bloodline began, Su Qing, for safety, dared not sleep; now he is so sleepy his eyelids keep fighting, and if he closes them he might not be able to open them again for a short while.

Then, without further talk, he pulled out a few Hungarian forints: "It's nothing; I just want to stay at your place for a few days."

"Ah!" The mayor was startled, not expecting that answer.

"What, is it inconvenient?"

Seeing the other party silent, Su Qing assumed disagreement, feeling somewhat helpless; this town is too small, basically lacking any inn, otherwise he wouldn't have to go through this trouble.

"No, welcome, sir, to stay at my place." The mayor came to his senses, didn't take the money, but waved his hand and said: "However, the money isn't necessary."

"Ha…… good." He yawned, and Su Qing nodded.

Next, the mayor arranged lodging; Su Qing repeatedly warned not to approach the room, then entered, locked the door, crawled under the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.

…………

When Su Qing woke up, it was already four days later.

In the mayor's astonished gaze, Su Qing walked out of the room, looked at the night sky, turned and bade farewell to the mayor.

This town is merely a temporary resting place; now that rest is complete, it's time to continue the journey.

And this time's destination is a manor called Mikalo located by the Danube River.

On the surface the manor is an ordinary estate that grows grapes and produces wine, but secretly it is an underground organization that helps the Blood Wolf Two Clans clean up after their wars.

And this manor, now under the alias of Lorenz Mikalo's manor owner, is none other than the father of the two Blood Wolf progenitors—Alexander Kovarnass.

This time he is going to see that old man who has lived from the early fifth century up to the early twentieth century.

If we really count, compared to the dungeon imprisoning William, the manor is nearest to the Blood Clan's main house.

Why Su Qing chose the distant over the near is actually also a helpless move.

When watching the film, he never understood this old man who has lived over fifteen hundred years.

"Saying he is weak in strength!"

Yet he can peacefully live this long, and also command such a great armed force, able to constantly monitor the Blood Wolf Two Clans' movements, while the Blood Wolf Two Clans know nothing at all;

"Saying he is strong in strength!"

Being ambushed by his own son Marcus, a single strike pierced his chest and pinned him to the wall, on the brink of death, with no chance to resist.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Su Qing decided to first download William's Ancestral Werewolf Source Blood, then go see this old man.

As for this trip's purpose, needless to say, it is naturally Alexander's most primitive, original 'Perfect Blood'.

As for how to obtain it, it's actually simple: trade the two keys of William's coffin with Alexander.

From the film, Su Qing learned that although Alexander has not met his two progenitor sons for a thousand years, deep down he still cares about those two brothers; in Night II there is a scene where he refutes Selinna, and also where the other party searches for keys on Victor.

So, trade the keys.

This is, in his view, the simplest method and also the one with the highest success rate.

Of course, this transaction is merely a surface pretense; the real reliance is still on heavenly base download.

…………

When Su Qing arrived at Mikalo Manor, it was already 4 a. m. with light rain.

The manor's exterior looks quite ordinary, nothing special, just that there are relatively many guards and the dogs are quite fierce.

Just as he approached the gate, three or four mighty Dobermans rushed to the rear of the gate, barking continuously through the gaps in the railing, extremely ferocious.

The barking echoed through the manor; a few seconds later, two guards holding firearms and torches came over.

"Who are you? Leave quickly, this is private property."

"Tell Lorenz Mikalo I have the keys to open William's coffin." Su Qing also didn't waste words, speaking bluntly.

"……" The two guards' faces hardened, they exchanged a glance, and one immediately turned and hurried away.

Shortly after, that person returned and said: "He wants to see you."

After speaking, he waved his hand, and the gate opened.

Su Qing nodded and followed the guard into the manor, winding around until they finally arrived outside a room.

The guard knocked on the door, and an old man's voice came from inside: "Come in."

Immediately the guard pushed open the door, bringing Su Qing into the room, and finally saw Alexander.

He looked about fifty years old, his hair and beard white with a bit of black, wearing a fine robe, and unexpectedly a calligraphy piece hung on the wall behind him, bearing the four large characters "Go to hell".

You can go out.

The old man sat behind the desk, waving his hand with a stern tone.

The guard glanced at Su Qing, turned and left the room, closing the door.

The door closed, leaving only Su Qing and Alexander in the room.

Su Qing initiated the topic, saying: "Alexander·Kowen nas, I'm Su Qing; I came tonight to make a deal with you."

Alexander was about to speak, but hearing Su Qing say that, his face showed interest: "Oh, what deal?"

Taking out the large copper disc key from his pocket, Su Qing said: "Using the key that imprisons William, I will exchange it for one liter of your fresh blood, and for staying by your side for three months—during this time you will provide me with all my blood food!"
