"I believe you."
Akua Shuzen heard Lin say this and nodded slightly.
""There's one more thing...""
Her gaze flickered slightly, and a faint blush appeared on her fair cheeks.
She asked, a little embarrassed:
""Excuse me, but was the tomato juice I drank bought outside?""
From her understanding of the Human Realm, such tomato juice was clearly not for sale.
But what if?
After all, she hadn't been to the Human Realm for about five years now.
While chatting with Akashiya Moka, she had drunk five cups of tomato juice.
To say without reservation, she was completely enamored with that taste.
Not only did it satisfy her craving for blood.
It also brought spiritual enjoyment.
""Tomato juice...""
Lin slightly raised an eyebrow and smiled: "My apologies, but this kind of tomato juice is a special blend I made specifically for Moka."
""Alright then...""
Akua Shuzen couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Her hopes were dashed.
It seemed almost impossible to drink this kind of tomato juice again in the future.
Unless she often came to see Moka.
In that case, she should be able to enjoy this feeling once more.
The moment this thought arose, Akua Shuzen, noticing it, couldn't help but feel a rush of shame, her face flushing deeply.
Lin: "???"
Seeing Akua Shuzen suddenly blush after her disappointment, seemingly ashamed, he narrowed his eyes, a flicker of confusion passing through them.
What was she thinking?
He had no intention of delving deeper.
Lin looked at Akua Shuzen and asked with a hint of curiosity:
""After you go back, how do you plan to deal with the trouble of Fujisaki Miya?""
""Fujisaki Miya...""
Akua Shuzen, who was still feeling ashamed, paused slightly at his words, looked at Lin, and after a moment of silence, said:
""First, I'll figure out what he wants with Moka. If I can't make him give up, I'll find a way to kill him.""
As the saying goes.
If you can't solve the problem, solve the person who created it.
""Kill him...""
Lin couldn't help but curve his lips slightly:
""You're not his match, and you can't kill him.""
""Why not?""
Akua Shuzen's delicate brows slightly furrowed.
Although she wasn't Lin's match.
It certainly wasn't due to a lack of power.
She was a rare kind of powerhouse among the yokai in the Yokai Realm.
And she also had the Collapsing Moon Dimensional Blade.
Though suppressed by Lin's ability and unusable, once unleashed, the destructive power of this move was terrifying.
After all, this was the ultimate technique of Eastern Unbeaten, one of the Three Dark Lords.
Using spatial power to kill enemies.
Known as the 'Strongest Blade'.
As an executive of Otogi no Kuni herself, even if Fujisaki Miya was hiding something, she didn't believe she couldn't kill him.
Lin smiled slightly:
""It's simple. His strength is formidable, possibly not weaker than mine.""
""Looking across the entire Yokai Realm, there's only one individual who can truly challenge him one-on-one.""
Although Fujisaki Miya was a clone, perhaps only possessing half the main body's power.
He could still gravely injure Eastern Unbeaten with a single move.
Because this clone of Fujisaki Miya actually possessed all the intelligence, memories, and personality of the main body, Alucard.
The sealed main body, conversely, lacked intelligence, memories, and personality.
""How do you know?""
""Who is that individual you're talking about?""
Akua Shuzen slightly furrowed her brows, expressing doubt about Lin's statement.
""You don't need to worry about that.""
Lin had no intention of explaining.
Akua Shuzen: "..."
After a moment of silence, her gaze flickering slightly, she suddenly spoke up and asked:
""What do you want?""
She didn't believe Lin was merely telling her all this out of simple talkativeness.
Seeing this, Lin subtly curved his lips.
Meeting Akua Shuzen's gaze, he said with a hint of temptation:
""Do you wish to become a True Ancestor?""
""!!!""
Akua Shuzen's pupils constricted, and she instantly stood up from the sofa, her blood-red eyes widening.
She was somewhat startled and uncertain.
Looking at the greatly astonished Akua Shuzen, the curve on Lin's lips became even more pronounced.
He had thought of something not long ago.
That was, Akua Shuzen seemed to have wished to become a True Ancestor since childhood.
To obtain the power of a True Ancestor.
She even wanted to kill Moka's mother, Akasha Bloodriver.
Staring intently at Lin, Akua Shuzen suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart and asked suspiciously:
""You can make me a True Ancestor?""
""Possibly.""
However, Lin merely smiled slightly, giving a vague answer.
""...""
Hearing this reply, Akua Shuzen's gaze flickered subtly.
Lin said nothing more.
After a moment of silence.
Akua Shuzen spoke up and asked: "What do I need to pay?"
Seeing the bait he had cast was subtly taken by the desired fish, Lin, the fisherman, revealed a happy smile.
": "It's simple. You only need to become mine.""
""What... impossible!""
Hearing this price, Akua Shuzen's expression changed, and she expressed her stance without hesitation.
Seeing this, Lin smiled casually:
""Don't be so absolute.""
""You must know that you would be gaining the power of a True Ancestor, and you should be very clear about the value of that power.""
""Throughout the history of the Yokai Realm, only two True Ancestors have ever appeared.""
""If you wish to become a True Ancestor, unless you become mine, you cannot afford the price to obtain this power.""
There were only two True Ancestors because Akashiya Moka could only be counted as half.
Although she inherited the power of a True Ancestor.
She had not yet awakened it.
Only by awakening the power of a True Ancestor was one qualified to be called a True Ancestor.
""...""
Listening to Lin's words, which were like a devil's whisper, Akua Shuzen's expression subtly changed, her heart far from calm.
She admitted Lin was right.
This was the power of a vampire True Ancestor, said to be close to that of gods, not some cheap cabbage from a street stall.
She very much wanted to become a True Ancestor.
But the price was to become Lin's, which made her somewhat resistant.
It wasn't that she disliked Lin.
It was simply because she didn't want to trade herself, regardless of who it was.
""How about this,""
Lin said then: "I'll give you a few days to think about it."
""This is a rare opportunity, and it's up to you whether you can seize it. After all, some opportunities, once missed, are truly missed.""
Akua Shuzen was silent for a moment, then looked at Lin and suddenly asked:
""Why are you doing this?""
""Surely there are limitations to the means of making a vampire a True Ancestor, right? Why don't you give it to Moka?""
""Not Moka, but me?""
Hearing her question, a thoughtful glint flashed in Lin's eyes.
It seemed Akua Shuzen had a misunderstanding.
She didn't know about Akashiya Moka inheriting the power of a True Ancestor.
Moreover, she arbitrarily assumed that the method to make a vampire a True Ancestor had limitations and a price, and couldn't be used lightly.
Understanding this, Lin, of course, wouldn't correct her.
Looking at her, he smiled and said:
""How I make you a True Ancestor, whether there are limitations or costs, you don't need to worry about that now.""
""And you don't need to concern yourself with Moka; I have my own arrangements.""
""As for why I chose you, you can simply understand that I took an interest in you, which is why I'm giving you this opportunity.""
Lin didn't hide his intentions.
He indeed took an interest in Akua Shuzen.
Although she was rather flat-chested, he believed in his "dough kneading" skills, confident he could slowly enlarge those two lumps of dough.
And small was also cute.
