Ye Xiao greeted Rias, then walked alone to the end of the corridor.
Looking at the door in front of him, Ye Xiao pushed it open directly.
What came into view was a huge coffin.
The coffin lid was made of crystal, allowing the person inside to be seen.
However, the glass hadn't accumulated dust for so long, so it seemed Gaspar was quite diligent.
Ye Xiao walked to the side of the coffin.
He saw a very beautiful young girl lying inside the coffin.
She was Valerie Tepes.
The holder of Sephiroth's Cup from the Underworld.
She had been in a deep sleep since awakening her Sacred Gear.
She was Gaspar's benefactor, and one could even say she was Gaspar's "creator."
Ye Xiao walked to the coffin, carefully examining Valerie. Her face was like delicate porcelain, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she would wake up the next second.
Ye Xiao reached out and lightly touched the glass of the coffin, and the coffin lid opened directly.
Looking at Valerie, who was like a sleeping beauty, Ye Xiao poked her face.
It was smooth and elastic.
How should he wake her up?
Ye Xiao thought for a moment, then pulled out a knife and made a cut in his palm.
Blood flowed out.
The fragrance of the magic-filled blood made Valerie's nose twitch, as she had been sleeping for a long time.
Ye Xiao's blood was very tempting to Valerie.
This was also thanks to the gift from his hometown.
Ye Xiao leaned against the coffin, then reached out and dripped blood onto her lips.
Valerie's eyelids fluttered, then slowly opened.
"Valerie, wel..."
Before Ye Xiao could finish, Valerie sat up.
She grabbed Ye Xiao's hand and licked his wound.
It felt itchy, a bit strange.
Perhaps she had just woken up and desperately needed to replenish her energy.
Valerie's big, beautiful eyes looked at Ye Xiao, and she slowly uttered a sentence.
"Xiao, I'm hungry."
"You're hungry? Get up and go eat..."
His words were interrupted once again by Valerie.
Valerie said nothing, slowly getting up. Perhaps she hadn't moved for too long, and her limbs had no strength.
Then, with a stumble, she directly fell into Ye Xiao's arms.
A loud thud followed.
Then the two of them fell to the ground, looking fresh and vibrant, their current posture somewhat ambiguous.
Although their posture was somewhat ambiguous at the moment.
But Valerie, lying on Ye Xiao's body, looked at his exposed neck and swallowed.
That tiny bit of fresh blood just now had captivated Valerie.
So fragrant~
She wanted more.
Valerie wrapped her arms around Ye Xiao's neck, her head resting on his chest. With a slight lift of her head, she could touch Ye Xiao's neck.
"Valerie, are you ok..."
Ye Xiao was wondering if Valerie was alright when she apologized to him.
But the next moment, Valerie looked up and leaned in, gently biting Ye Xiao's neck.
Ye Xiao was stunned.
However, no pain came; instead, the bitten area felt a little itchy, and it was licked.
As Valerie began to feed.
Ye Xiao also felt changes in his body, but since he was not an ordinary person but a devil, a little absorption was not a big problem.
"Valerie, don't absorb too fast. Let me take a breath too."
Ye Xiao said helplessly.
Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Valerie released her mouth. At this moment, her eyes were hazy, as if she had taken medicine, and her face was flushed.
"Sorry, but Xiao is too fragrant."
"I'm sorry."
But the craving for food once again gained the upper hand, and Valerie gently bit Ye Xiao's neck again.
Ye Xiao rubbed Valerie's hair, feeling a bit helpless.
But he didn't say anything.
Valerie would have to repay the blood she took this time, sooner or later.
But he wouldn't become Valerie's exclusive blood bag, would he, like those two in "Rosario + Vampire"?
Forget it.
After all, this girl had been sleeping for ten years, so let her suck for a while.
And life is like that, since you can't resist, then enjoy it.
But he couldn't just let her suck for free; he had to collect some interest first.
While letting Valerie suck his blood, Ye Xiao's hands began to become restless, gently stroking Valerie's back.
Valerie's face also turned red.
He didn't know if it was from sucking blood or from embarrassment.
But Valerie's sucking action also slowed down.
It had to be said, Valerie felt pretty good to the touch.
He didn't know how much time had passed.
"Xiao, how are you here..."
Rias, who had finished with Gaspar, also came to inquire about Ye Xiao's situation, and when she saw Valerie and Ye Xiao's ambiguous posture, she was stunned for a moment.
But she quickly recovered and shouted.
"Valerie, what are you doing! ?"
...
Occult Research Club.
Ye Xiao sat on the sofa, looking at the ceiling.
At this moment, his face was a bit pale, but it wasn't a big problem and would be fine in a while.
Similarly, the two "strawberries" on his neck were quite conspicuous.
And Valerie sat next to Ye Xiao, her face flushed, looking down, somewhat embarrassed to face Ye Xiao.
Zhu Nai was brewing red date and goji berry tea for Ye Xiao, preparing to replenish him well, as he had lost quite a bit of blood.
"Xiao, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I'll be fine in a while."
Facing Rias's concern, Ye Xiao waved his hand, indicating that there was no problem.
Zhu Nai carried the tea over, placed it in front of Ye Xiao, and then teased Valerie.
"Oh my, Valerie, you really need to be more restrained!"
Valerie buried her head even lower, muttering softly, "I... I couldn't help myself, and Xiao really smells too good."
Ye Xiao picked up the teacup and took a sip, then comforted Valerie.
"It's okay, I didn't lose out."
At this moment, the research club's door opened.
Kiba, Gaspar, Koneko, and a lecherous-looking Hyoudou Issei walked in.
Now that everyone was here, it was time to start the discussion.
Ye Xiao took out a Senzu Bean and popped it into his mouth.
Immediately, Ye Xiao recovered.
The Senzu Beans were obtained by reincarnating Asia, but it was a Senzu Bean tree, the beauty of a sustainable and renewable resource.
Much better than phoenix tears.
"Alright, everyone, I have something to say."
As Ye Xiao spoke, the scene quieted down.
"The Rating Game will start next weekend, and you only have one week left. Starting tomorrow, I will give you a rigorous one-week special training!"
"Understood!"
Upon hearing about the special training, everyone showed different expressions.
Kiba's eyes were firm; as a knight, he had to bring victory to Rias. Gaspar was a bit nervous, unconsciously clutching the corner of his clothes; he still lacked some confidence.
Hyoudou Issei's eyes lit up with excitement, muttering that he would become stronger during the special training.
Koneko was eating snacks with no expression.
And Valerie secretly glanced at Ye Xiao, whispering, "I will also train hard."
"Okay, tomorrow on the back mountain, I will help you train!"
