After waking up

High-fiving Mulan made Charles very excited. Not only did he have hope in his heart, but his mood also swept away the previous depression. He looked very high-spirited and asked Mulan with expectation.

"Then can I call you Mulan from now on?"

"Hahaha, I wish you all, my partner! By the way, I have always called you Ciel, but I don't actually know your name."

Hearing Mulan ask this, Ciel smiled slightly awkwardly.

"My name is Jinipi Charles. Actually, it's better for you to call me Charles. Really, I don't mind this."

"puff"

Mulan had a weird expression, and Farrow Lynch on the sofa over there couldn't help laughing. Among some of Dilga's old slangs, the pronunciation of this name is a bit like some less elegant words, similar to dog It means leftover, small mud and so on.

"Don't laugh. I know this name is easy to misunderstand. The main reason is that almost no direct bloodline of our Charles family has long life. And my father didn't know where he heard that it is easier to make a living with a nickname, and it is easier to die young and live longer. He gave me such a name for a long time. I originally had an older brother with a more normal name, but he died of illness when he was nine years old, so my name has been used until now."

"Hahahaha, it's such a simple but heavy father's love. It actually sounds pretty good, but I'll still call you Ciel from now on."

Mullan smiled and comforted Ciel, while Farrow Lynch screamed again without any bottom line.

"Baron Ginipi, I also think this is a good title. He will definitely be outstanding in the Dilga Empire!"

Charles was too lazy to get to know Farrow Lynch. He now knew that the other party was not even a real living person. The coffin he slept in before belonged to this guy. Why should he get to know a half-dead person.

"Okay Ciel, we need to discuss our current situation in detail."

"Yes, as I just suggested, it seems most suitable for me to continue to act stupid among vampires, but I feel that the influence of vampire blood on me is a little too great. Last time Handel cut me off during breakfast. When I broke my hand and saw the blood, I felt as if I was possessed by a demon. I was very uncomfortable and very eager. I relied on my strong perseverance to avoid showing my ugly face. I hate this feeling!"

Mulan nodded.

"In the semi-vampire state, you will find it difficult to control yourself when you see blood, especially special blood. It's just like drug addiction. Moreover, the vampire blood in your body is also extraordinary, and the impact will only be greater. I don't want it either. You become corrupted, or you fall under the control of a vampire."

After careful consideration, Mullan glanced at Farrow Lynch, and then looked at Ciel again.

"We are not outsiders. Maybe we can try it here."

"Try what?"

Charles was very curious, while Farrow Lynch was slightly stunned, obviously a little touched that Mulan did not treat him as an outsider.

"A kind of mark. It was born in the darkness of chaos, but it breeds the power of light. Although it is weak, it is strong. Its existence should be able to help you."

As he spoke, Mulan took out the black-covered book from his arms and reached out to lightly seal the book.

A ray of flame-like light flows slowly on the book cover, and the light does not scatter wherever it passes. Finally, all the flames of light merge and form a symbol that seems to bloom in flames.

Charles kept staring at the symbol on the book cover. Farrow Lynch also stood up from the sofa behind him, as if this symbol had some kind of magical power. Just seeing it gave people a sense of light and heat. The feeling makes people understand that it is intense and makes people understand the meaning it represents.

As a naturally born resuscitator, Farrow Lynch yearns for the light just like the professionals on the path of resuscitators. He is naturally attracted to this symbol. Even though he knows that it is not suitable to intervene between Mulan and Ciel, he still He was involuntarily attracted and subconsciously approached the two of them.

"What symbol is this?"

Ciel asked Farrow Lynch's question with some excitement. This symbol not only brings warmth to people, but is also very beautiful.

"This book is called the Book of Dawn, and this symbol is naturally the symbol of dawn."

"Then what should I do?"

Ciel wanted to reach out and touch the book, but he hesitated and stopped. However, Mulan took the initiative to hand the book over so that Ciel's hand could touch the book.

"How does it feel?"

Farrow Lynch asked from the side. Ciel did not look back, but looked at the symbol he touched with some fascination.

"Warm and hot and sharp and cozy, it's so amazing and beautiful."

Logically speaking, Ciel should hate light nowadays, but when he touches the symbol of dawn, he feels very comfortable, and even the light is not dazzling.

"Char, I will make an attempt to imprint this mark on you to help you resist the erosion of your mind and soul by the source blood. In order to prevent vampires from suspecting you in the future, even if you drink blood, you will even increase your vampire rank. , even the light will not abandon you."

It was actually a bit arrogant for Mulan to compare the dawn symbol to the light, but that's what he said, and no one here would refute him.

"Can I have it?"

Charles looked up at Mulan, who nodded slightly.

"Perhaps you can open this book in the near future. But now, I'm sorry I can't tell you what's written on it. Although the Book of Dawn represents hope, not all the records are beautiful, and not everyone can bear it immediately. .Okay, let’s get down to business, if you’re willing, we’ll start right away, after all, we don’t have enough time.”

"I agree!"

At this point, Ciel can only choose to believe in Mulan wholeheartedly, both in fact and in mentality.

"Okay, because this is a mark on the body and soul, so it may hurt a little, so please bear with it."

"Don't worry, after what happened in the past two days, I already believe that I have great potential."

Mulan smiled and winked at Farrow Lynch. When the latter was a little confused, Mulan had already looked at Ciel solemnly.

"Put your hands flat, stay solemn, and focus. I'm going to start."

A trace of halo began to appear on Mulan's body, as if a lot of light mist was floating on the surface of his body, and the cover of the Book of Dawn gradually lit up, and the Dawn symbol on it was like a blazing flame, with light and fire. More intense than before.

Charles quickly calmed down and spread his right hand upwards. Mulan nodded heavily to him, and then pressed the front of the book cover onto Charles' palm.

"Zi la la"

"Ah-wu"

Ciel, who had acted very tough just now, didn't even have time to react. The unimaginable pain pierced into his body and soul in an instant, causing him to scream immediately.

Farrow Lynch on the side was startled, and then reacted immediately, reaching out and covering Ciel's mouth to stop his exaggerated screams.

After the initial strong stimulation, Ciel actually restrained himself and gritted his teeth to bear it.

The engraving process was not complicated, nor did it take long, only less than ten seconds, but it was extremely long for Ciel. When the engraving was completed, Mulan immediately took away the book.

"alright!"

Ciel's body softened slightly, he took a long breath, and then stretched out his palms again with a slight trembling.

Farrow Lynch and Mulan, who was holding the Book of Dawn, also looked over. There was a mark on Ciel's palm that looked like a hot iron, which was exactly the same as the one on the cover of the book.

Charles felt as if he had a thought, and the mark on his hand began to glow faintly, as if a flame was burning against his palm.

"What a nice view."

Farrow Lynch subconsciously said what was on his mind, and then added.

"But this is a bit too obvious. Will Baron Charles always wear gloves from now on?"

As soon as he finished speaking, even before Mulan could give an explanation, the mark on Charles's hand quickly faded, and soon it returned to the smooth palm just now.

"Well, I was just thinking about Farrow Lynch and how to hide it, and the mark disappeared on its own."

"Yes, just like the Book of Dawn, the mark of Dawn can also be hidden, otherwise the mark will lose a lot of meaning. By the way, does it still hurt?"

After just a moment, Ciel's pain quickly faded away. He clenched his fist and shook his hand.

"It's okay, but I feel a slight warmth in my palms!"

"Well, that's good. Having this light means having hope. It can help you and supervise you. If there is any problem with the engraver, it will be recorded in the Book of Dawn."

Mulan unfolded his right hand, a faint firelight appeared, and a dawn symbol appeared in his palm.

Charles was excited when he saw it, which also meant that he and Mulan were true partners!

Farrow Lynch watched blankly on the side, feeling a little envious in his heart.

"Then we can discuss some more details and think about all the situations that can be considered. If you need to lurk for a long time, my suggestion is that you have to properly highlight your value."

"I think the one who gave you the source blood must have prepared more than just a substitute for you. Your excellence may attract his attention, but it is also a kind of protective color. He will expect you to grow more, rather than under certain circumstances. Becoming a victim.”

Ciel narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Indeed, after all, I will be more valuable this way."

Mulan and Charles began to discuss in depth what happened next. The emotional bond between the two was obviously deeper than before, and their relationship was more intimate and harmonious.

Farrow Lynch has been staring blankly at the Book of Dawn in Mulan's hand.
