Blood Contract Chapter 5: Nightmare at the end of the fat lady screaming
In the dream, a man looked down at him from a high position. The man gave cold orders to another that is the man has to take a whip and hit him without mercy.
The whipping man's was so skilled that he whips have not left a trace on him.
In the darkness, only one lamp was lit, but he opened his eyes forcefully, only to see the blurred outline of the man, the man was an existence of cold blood from the bottom to the top.
Every time he saw a man, he was beaten hard. He felt very painful. He felt nothing but pain. But even so, he still longed to see a man. Only when he appeared in the dark did he have a little light. Although he would be beaten hard, he would have a rare meal after each beating.
The man said, hate me!
He opened his mouth to say something. In a trance, there were only two words that he managed to say: "Father..."
Zero opened his eyes suddenly, with nightmare in his mind and numb expression on his face.
"Woke up yet?” Though it is a question, it is from a voice full of anger.
Zero startled and looked up at her obese wife. Mrs. Fat herself was angry and impatient. It seemed that Zero's waking up had disturbed her rare lunch break.
"I'm sorry." Zero said, remembering that his wound made him dizzy and made him fall down on the bed again. Although the bed wasn’t as hard as a stone, the fall almost killed Zero. His face was not smelled of blood, but the stench of the original sweaty sheet was invisible.
"Lie down, calm for me, you bastrd! Don't trouble me anymore, or I'll throw you into the ditch and feed you to the rats! "Mrs. Fat roared angrily on her face. Her ferocious expression made her fat face ugly and disgusting.
"I'm sorry to trouble you." Zero said that and went on to lie in a silent and calm way. His shrinking body shows his weakness and pitifulness. He looked like a small slave who has been ill-treated and ill nourished, but no one will really take a pity on him.
"This is your food. Eat every last drop of it. After you finish eating, I'll clean up the bowl. Listen, if you dare to waste food, I'll tear down your bones. I know your cheap slaves’ tricks. If someone has a little sympathy for you, you'll make advantage of them! Be honest with me! Understand? "
Mrs. Fat snapped the bowl, laid it heavily beside the bed, and then twisted her fat body towards the stairway.
Zero seems to be in a small attic with two fist-sized skylights, and the only way out is to go through a small square plank.
Zero finally understood why Mrs. Fat was so angry.
It's too hard for her to squeeze down such a small place with her fat body! Especially when she get stuck on the bottom of the buttocks.
Waiting for that fat woman to leave.
Zero moved his hands and feet slightly. Yesterday, the men beat him with the chains and they were using great strength and even if he suffered many serious injuries, but none of them were fatal.
Yesterday, despite the two vampire nobles who appeared in the back made his plan messy, the plan succeeded at last.
Zero's original plan was to get a little bit badly injured and get bloody, pathetic and disgusting, so that he could spend the night safely.
As for the girl, if he saved her or she died its none of his. He was a killer, even if he doesn’t kill a child, he will not feel pity or sympathy. Only the girl's name, Cynthia, made him somewhat uncomfortable.
"[Grunt-Stomach noise]... "
Zero was startled, and then turned to look at the food at the head of the bed, yellow paste - "vomit"? Zero frowned in disgust, but he reached for it closer so that he could get his head close and lick the contents a little.
Zero licked it carefully and quickly, and after licking everything clean, he continued to eat the spilled soup endlessly.
Zero had eaten, and then obeyed the fat woman's words, honestly not disturbing her. In fact, he did need a good rest. Although his injuries were not fatal, his recovery ability was stronger than the average person, but it also needed at least five or six days of rest to recover, but to be completely as before, it would take a month to recover and that’s if he doesn't suffer any other injuries.
Zero closed his eyes, relaxed his muscles and slowed down his breathing. Ordinary people usually breathe through the lungs. In fact, in health preservation, breathing should go directly into the abdomen, which is called dantian, so as to relieve the pressure on the lungs and chest and achieve real relaxation.

Zero relaxed and slept steadily until the sky was dark, and the footsteps on the corridor came up quickly, and he quickly regained consciousness. Although he was sober, he still closed his eyes and waited for the people downstairs to come up and approach.
It's not the fat woman he saw during the day that came up judging by the sound of footsteps, it's an eleven or twelve-year-old child.
The shadow was a little closer to the light. Something was put on the bed. Then the child came close. Zero felt a breath hitting his face, and he opened his eyes without warning. Scared, the child fell on the ground with a frightened breath.
The child looked at him for a while, patted his chest and exhaled.
"Hey, are you awake? I'm Nick, a little slave in this mansion. Mrs. Ferry asked me to bring something to eat, and this... "The little boy took a small coconut from beneath the clothes, and the coconut was emptied inside and was instead filled with something. Zero smelled the smell of the medicine. Old Man Benson, who learned herbal medicine when he was young, gave it to him. I heard you saved X. You're so brave.”
Little Nick said a lot of things in a very restless way. Thanks to him, Zero only knew what happened yesterday was concerning a Childe.
Childe is a vampire cub, which has not been introduced to The Prince for approval. It is a child with vampire blood, who has not received any bloodline into vampirism and is in a growing stage. Childe who has not receive bloodline ancestry usually does not need to suck blood, but there will be symptoms of thirst for blood from time to time.
Childe's food requirements are very strict, which is very important for their future powers. The two brothers and sisters who escaped yesterday were the selected food of the Childe.
Children born to vampires are generally stronger than human children, but vampires are difficult to conceive children, and fewer can be born and live until the first vampirism embrace. Therefore, Childe is very protected by adult vampires.
That's why there were so many people running to catch the two children!
From Nick's mouth, Zero also learns that his place is the legendary floating island - Giffen, the capital of the vampire kingdom, which was occupied and captured by the dark forces after God created it.
Zero was shocked. Giffen, though close to Seiwang City, was seven or eight days away. Was he not in a coma for a day, but seven or eight days?
Seeing Zero's surprise, Nick explained: "Giffen has floating doors [1] portals that are used to freely to go anywhere in Pondra territory and come back at any time, but only those licensed by the Prince can use them. It's my Master Duke Alos Reiter William Wallace who brought you back."
Zero's heart was in a state of awe. The person who saved him is a Duke Vampire. What's the purpose of the other party for saving him?
"Unfortunately, the Duke is not in town now. The Prince sent him to the border, which is said to be in turmoil and lots of fighting." Nick said, with a hidden worry on his face.
Zero felt a little strange and pretended to be timid and asked, "Why did The Duke bring me here? He is not going to suck my blood? "
"Don't worry, Master Duke has a really good temper. He doesn't abuse slaves like any other nobles."
Zero nodded, but there was still doubt in her mind. Zero took the mask of the weak teenager and said a few words to Nick, and then he needed to rest after he was tired.
