"How, do you understand?"

Sunlight shone through the huge window and spilled on the man, casting a long shadow. The exquisite interior on the walls forms a beautiful landscape painting with the duo.

Accardo gently closed the book in his hand and said to the young woman on the side.

"Well, thank you, teacher."

"What's wrong, you seem to have some doubts."

"No, it's just that some of the things you said are different from what my godfather said."

"That's normal, May, history is a little girl dressed up by anyone. It is important to look at each piece of history with your own ideas and have your own point of view.

"Well, I'll pay attention later, sensei."

"Don't call me teacher, Mei, we're just discussing some content in our spare time, it's not a teacher-student relationship."

"So what shall I address you, sir?"

"Call me Earl."

"Count? Sir

, you used to..." "I don't need you to worry about my previous affairs, and there is nothing to talk to you, only endless sorrow and killing."

"Then how did you become like this, Count?"

"Huh... I turned my back on God and became the devil in hell. Seeing

that Mei still wanted to say something, Accardo did not want to continue the topic and interrupted her directly.

"You and Prince George got together, didn't you?"

"This... It should be, he has feelings for me and is ready to get engaged next month.

Mei pursed her lips, and then said with a smile on her smooth face.

"Well, that's right, so congratulations in advance, my Queen Mary."

A smile appeared in Accardo's blood-red eyes, and he said in a half-joking tone.

"Come here today, you will learn a lot in the future."

Accardo turned and prepared to leave.

"Count, can you make others like you?"

As soon as the words fell, Accardo suddenly turned around and stared at her with a sharp look.

"You'd better not have that thought, Mei, this life is not as good as you think."

After a word, Accardo melted into the wall like a ghost.

When she was sure that Accardo was gone, the smile on Mary's face faded.

Her sanity was telling her that marrying Prince George and eventually becoming queen was the best choice. But ever since her ex-fiancé, Prince Albert Victor, died of pneumonia, she felt the fragility of her life and began to fear death.

Her fiancé, Prince George, had previously trained as a naval cadet on a battleship and achieved good results until after the death of his brother, when he wanted to learn more in order to become a good king in the future.

She doesn't know if her fiancé is ready, or that it will never be ready.

She was a little uneasy, in fact, what made her even more uneasy was that in her heart, the shadow of a man had been deeply imprinted in her mind and was difficult to erase, even surpassing Prince George.

"What that means you have a way to make me like you, Count?"

Mary read silently, her eyes shining inexplicably.

......

"Louis XV was a very contradictory king in history, whose weak and ineffective rule led to the weakening of the dynasty, but miraculously perpetuated the entire dying family..."

"As the king of a country, indecision is not desirable, it will only make the situation worse, and the plan should be finalized as soon as possible within the means."

"Well said. Listen up, though, it's not easy to do that, and it requires a broader perspective and stronger conviction.

"Louis XV's depressed life in his early childhood made him want to compensate himself in every possible way once he was free."

"As a result, he started the Seven Years' War and lost to us."

The corners of Mary's mouth raised an arc, proud of the strength of her country.

"Yes, this battle plunged the Bourbons into turmoil, and during the reign of Louis XV, he was incompetent, reneging, and cowardly, sowing the seeds for the subsequent fall of the Bourbons."

Accardo spoke in his deep voice, in a storytelling way.

He actually enjoyed the atmosphere of discussion and telling his thoughts, but gradually he found that Mary gradually brought the topic to his body.

"Are you so curious about me, Mei?"

Mary didn't speak, but her shining eyes had betrayed her.

Anyone who has seen a guy like him over the years can't help but be curious.

"I'm a vampire, May."

"What? Bloodsucker? Then you need to drink human blood to..."

"Why did you come to me then? I mean, why me? Is it because you think I'll be a queen?

"Yes, but not exactly, I just found in you the brilliance of humanity, tenacity and rigor, unwillingness to give up, and it is these qualities that make humans so different." That's exactly what I admire, May.

"So what is your purpose in approaching me?"

"Huh, does passing the time count?"

"Ugh!"

"Actually, in addition to this, it was just in case."

"Well, is there something uneasy about you? Is there anything else that threatens you?

"It's true that nothing can kill me with the power of this land now, but, May, do you believe in fate?"

"Fate?"

"Yes, do you think life has a trajectory? No matter how you struggle, you will eventually return to square one and finally die in the established way. Although

Accardo's fair face was facing Mary, there was no focus in his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.

"Fatalism cannot be trusted, Mr. Accardo."

Accardo suddenly came back to his senses after hearing the voice, and his eyes became sharper.

"Why?"

It was the first time Accardo had so much wondered about Mary's answer.

"Fatalism is actually more applicable to those who are confused about life, because they do not know what they are pursuing, but take solace in the fact that life will always end like that. But if people really want to pursue something, it would be sad if it took so long to prove this fatalism.

Speaking of this, Mary's tone became slightly agitated, staring at Accardo's face and continuing.

"If we really know when we die, we don't have to feel sad, at least we can make some changes in the process of reaching the time of death, and that's the most important thing."

Accardo stared at the young woman in front of him, said nothing, and then laughed.

"Hahahaha... So, May, do you want to know when you died?

"March 24, 1953, at the age of 85."

Accardo ignored Mary's surprised expression and reported it directly.

Mary's face became very complicated at this time, she didn't want to believe it, but she didn't think that Accardo would lie to her, so that she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Well, although the mouth is beautiful, but when you really hear the news, you will still be overwhelmed. But I still have to thank you, at least this answer satisfies me. Don't worry, your fate will change today..."

Accardo stepped forward and leaned down to hug Mary, opening his mouth and piercing her smooth neck with his teeth.

"Uh-huh..." A

trace of blood flowed down the place where the wound joined his lips, and Accardo's eyes became brighter.

......

Mary opened her eyes a little confused, found herself lying on the bed, recalled the experience of this morning, and quickly walked to the mirror to look at her neck.

There are two light red blood holes on it....
