Vampire's Veil Of Obsession - Chapter 71: Her Composure

A conversation with a handsome stranger leaves Ariane chained in a cellar with a strange affliction. She soon discovers that the darkness of the nineteenth century’s Deep South hides many dangers. Mages, wolf shifters and the humans who hunt them play a risky game where to stumble is to die, all under the amused gaze of the apex predators of the supernatural world: vampires.

It is never healthy to attract the gaze of the aristocracy of the night. It takes much to survive in this merciless world, but Ariane will not let that deter her. The southern belle has a bite, and she is willing to learn and to grow in this hostile new world. She will use whatever means necessary to reclaim her freedom, be it guile, charm, or those intriguing new instincts that make blood so delectable.

This is a story of vampires as I believe they should be, with their strengths and weaknesses, with their remnants of humanity and the beast inside. Updates every Friday. Mind the tags.

As the first Bai Yueguang of the police academy, Matsuda returned to the past after dying once and bound the [Wish System] to try to save his young taming.
The ability of the [Wish System] is one-for-one, and the wishes of the “viewers” are realized through live broadcast until enough to achieve the wish to save the life of the tame.
Matsuda accepted the quid pro quo, and received his first wish on the first day he returned to the past.

Audience 1: [Please beat the police chief! ! ! 】
Matsuda: … a bit too much, right?
Audience 2: [Please give the Superintendent of Police a hug! ! 】
Matsuda: Okay, I’ll beat him up right now.
Audience 3: [Wearing a floral shirt and smoking and drinking in front of the police chief! 】
Matsuda: You just can’t get past the police chief, right?
Audience 4: [Please give each of your future colleagues a true love letter and confession! 】
Matsuda: You guys should continue fighting with the police chief…!

Matsuda fell into silence as he looked at the increasingly outrageous wish. Are these people planning to realize their wish, or are they planning to let our company die?
But in order to save the young tamer, Matsuda gritted his teeth and did it all over the place.
As a result, Matsuda became a unique legend in the history of the police academy.
Hagihara: I know Kojinpei is quite unruly, but…he wasn’t like this before, was he?
Matsuda: …Who do you think I am for? ?
After waiting for the death of the young tamer to pass, Matsuda immediately found out that his other two friends were also dying.
Matsuda showed a peaceful smile: If you love to die, die, I quit! (lifts the table)

He said: “My only wish is for you to disappear from my sight forever.”

Song Youran deeply loved Xie Jingchuan because of the warmth he unintentionally gave her. But she knew that Xie Jingchuan didn't love her, so she spent five years trying to make him fall in love with her. However, the result was that Xie Jingchuan hated her more and more every day. Looking back, Song Youran finally chose to ‘disappear’ from Xie Jingchuan’s world …

Everyone thought that Song Youran had died. Only Xie Jingchuan believed that Song Youran must still be living a peaceful life in a certain corner of the world. Previously, he thought that once Song Youran disappeared, he would be happy. However, when the misunderstanding was finally revealed, this was the first time that Xie Jingchuan truly felt heartbroken.

Even if love and hate were to be forgotten over time, could she fall for him again as if she had never been hurt by him?
