I've Turned Into A Fox Girl?-Chapter 308 Pretend Meal

"I tried to find some good quality blood, but we haven't restocked so I hope you can forgive me." Alice looked ashamed to have brought a person who had low-quality blood, but I couldn't even tell.

What caught my attention was the number of restraints on the human. They were gagged, blinded, and restrained in every possible way except their legs, so they could walk. There was also a convenient open spot on their neck, which was scarred by the many teeth that had sunk into him.

"I-it's okay. I'm not picky."

'FUCK! What do I do? I don't want to suck this random person's blood. I really should have sucked on Shaman's that night.' My words and thoughts were in complete contrast with each other, which Alice was happily giggling at. It was clear she had no intention of helping, but it wasn't like she could interfere.

"Great! Just make sure not to suck them dry. We still want them alive until the new stock arrives." Alice yanked on the chain, forcing the human to kneel in front of me. It sure was something seeing such an innocent-looking face show such extreme cruelty.

'You wouldn't say no to such a cute face, would you? P-pffttt!' I didn't know if she was bragging about her looks, but right now the urge to punch the Alice in front of me was hard to ignore. They may be different beings, but I was content with beating this one while the Alice in my head watched.

'D-don't do that! Look, you don't have to drink his blood directly, did you forget what your flames do?' There was a slight panic in her voice as she read what I was going to do and quickly offered a solution.

'Oh you're right, I can coat my teeth in flames. I can't get hurt by them so that works.' It was a great idea that I should have thought of myself, but I never expected to run into this kind of issue.

"Thank you, Alice." Putting the plan into action, I reluctantly got close to the human's neck. To me, this would qualify as a "monster" so I didn't feel bad for them, but it still didn't make it any less weird.

Coating my teeth in a layer of my vampiric flames, I sunk them into the human who instantly started screaming. Even with the gag, his moans of pain were very audible.

Without taking a single drop of blood, I carefully extracted the human's life force so as to only leave them with a couple of days left.

"You fucking weak human, shut up!" While I "sucked" Alice stomped on the human's legs as punishment for making noise.

'Urgh, it's going against my pride, but I should at least pretend I'm enjoying it.'

"Mmhh~ not the best, but anything is good enough when your throat is as dry as the desert." Pulling away from the human after "sucking" for about 30 seconds, I pretended to be relieved of my hunger.

"Wow, you really must have been hungry, the human is barely alive." After I had pulled away, the human passed out with barely any life left in their body.

"Haha, sorry if I went too far, I was just so hungry. However, I can think clearly now." Now that my fake hunger was cured, I decided to amp up my attitude and become more arrogant.

"You technically let them live, so I can't really say you did anything wrong… I am kind of hungry too, so maybe I will just finish this guy off." Alice looked at the human with eyes filled with hunger and, without any hesitation, took her turn.

My heart dropped for a moment, as I didn't actually take any blood from the human. What if she notices that the human still has a lot of blood?

"Ahh~ I better not have too much." However, Alice pulled away only after a few seconds and was not suspicious at all.

'Phew, the act is still up.'

"A-ahem anyway, seeing you eat and making the food have such a reaction, I couldn't help myself." Alice fidgeted as if she had just shown a very embarrassing side of herself.

'I guess I know where my kinks come from.' Technically Alice is my ancestor and therefore I decided it's indirectly her fault that I'm into the things I am now.

'Oi, genetics have nothing to do with it! Besides, I guarantee what you've done is child's play compared to me, hmph.' Alice wasn't going to take this lying down. For some reason, I wanted to prove her wrong, but this wasn't the place for it.

"I don't blame you Alice, but now that we are full, what now? You've brought me to a room, however I have nothing to do." I was curious what this Alice had in store for me. Perhaps if I get close enough to her, she might be able to bring me to this grand hall.

I didn't know if it was off-limits, and I didn't want to risk being caught if it was.

'Correct, it's a place that only a few chosen can enter, with the exception of when there is an Archduke ceremony.' Mental Alice gave her confirmation, which will help me decide how I should go about finding her.

"Hmm, there isn't much for us to do I'm afraid. Since you haven't been here before, I could walk you around to see the important places?"

'Perfect.' 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏｖ𝚎𝚕．𝚌ｏｍ

"That sounds wonderful, I'll be in your care then Alice." I gave her a warm smile and a blush spread across Alice's face.

"Hehe~, alright, follow me. I'll show you around. " Alice happily gripped the chain and started dragging the human to the door. I followed behind her while chuckling at the scene of a cute girl dragging a body. It was morbid, but the absurdity of it made it hilarious.

'Were you always this easy?' If I tried, there was no doubt I could seduce Alice and a part of me wanted to see what kind of reaction that would get, but the thought alone made me want to vomit.

'Bitch, no! Don't you dare touch me!' The more and more I got to poke at Alice, the more she started sounding like a tsundere. It was honestly rather cute, especially being able to put a face to the name.

'I swear if I wasn't trapped, I would be rushing up there to slap you.'

'It's what you get for teasing me~.' I skipped along happily, as it felt nice to get back at Alice, even if it only lasted a short while.

'You're lucky I want to die.' Running out of comebacks, Alice sighed, deciding to let me have this one.

'Well, moving on, you seem very calm to be seeing yourself in the dungeon. I know I would freak out if I suddenly saw myself in a dungeon.' It was probably because she already knew, but surely it feels weird to see herself through my eyes.

'I guess I should be, but what point is there? If anything, you get to see me in my prime.' Alice sounded very proud, which I honestly respected. Being able to see herself probably brought back fond memories.

'Fair enough, but is this Alice an accurate representation of you? You seem way too nice and bubbly for this to be you.' It shouldn't be too much of a surprise, as there was a 2,000-year gap between these versions of her, but they still felt a little too far apart.

'It certainly is, though I wasn't this nice. I was more of a lone wolf, but then again, I didn't die in the blast so maybe this is a reconstruction of how the other vampires saw me.' Alice's description sounded much closer to how I imagined her, but I think I like this one more. I get a free tour after all.

'Which you should be paying attention to instead of talking to me.'

'Oop yes.' Bringing my attention back to the physical Alice, we were still making our way through the maze, also known as the damn hallways.

"Say Alice, I heard something about the grand hall, have any idea where or what it is?" Seeing as this Alice was quite nice, I may as well take advantage of it and try to find this hall that would lead me to the other Alice.

"Hmmm, that must be where we have our ceremonies. I can take you to the door, but we are not allowed inside unless Alucard allows it." Alice agreed to show me, which was a slight surprise as I half expected her suspicion levels to go up.

"That's fine, best I know how to get there just in case." It was a complete lie, but now I had some sort of direction to go in. I just needed to not get caught sneaking in and pray there were no traps.

"Of course! We will head there first and then slowly make our way back, showing you where everything else is." Alice had plotted the route in her head already, which was nice, but I needed to remember it. The layout of this place is already confusing as is so I hope there will be some landmarks I can follow.
