ILLIMITABLE UNTIL DEATH

"What?" 

Arcueid's words left Ciel with a look of astonishment on her face. 

It was a look of surprise. 

Ciel probably never expected Arcueid to give such an answer. 

But Arcueid didn't look at Ciel. Her gaze remained fixed on Fang Li's body, staring at his pale face, her expression growing increasingly bitter. 

"Because I hate drinking blood." 

Anyone, upon learning Arcueid's identity, would find it utterly absurd to hear such a statement, wouldn't they? 

A vampire who hates drinking blood - that's practically unheard of. 

"But I hate drinking blood. I hate it very, very much." 

Drinking blood is an act that can cause a True Ancestor to fall. 

That's only one reason. 

The bigger reason lies in her past experiences. 

It was only then that Ciel remembered. 

The White Princess before her had drank blood for the first time eight hundred years ago. 

At that time, she had been deceived by Roa. 

After that, Arcueid entered a berserk state, slaughtering her kin and choosing to fall into slumber, only awakening when Roa's reincarnated body appeared, hunting down the "Serpent" of Dead Apostles. 

With such a past, is it really so strange that she hates drinking blood? 

After all, unlike Dead Apostles, True Ancestors don't need to drink blood. They just have an innate vampiric impulse in their bodies that connects them to drinking blood. 

Therefore, for a True Ancestor, blood is not a necessity - it's more like a drug to an addict, providing no benefit and only satisfying a mind on the brink of madness. 

Moreover, once blood is consumed, one becomes even more insane and gradually descends into destruction. 

Given these facts and her past experiences, it's not surprising that Arcueid hates drinking blood. 

Even though it's absurd for a vampire to hate drinking blood, Ciel still believed Arcueid's words. 

Because the White Princess, who could destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth with her disaster-like power, was trembling as she said those words. 

It wasn't just hatred, it was fear. 

"I don't want to drink blood. I really don't want to drink blood." 

Arcueid lowered her head and spoke with extreme complexity. 

"And I definitely don't want to drink Fang Li's blood." 

This was another unbelievable statement. 

Logically, if Arcueid hated drinking blood so much and wasn't even willing to do it to save someone, it would probably be because that person didn't mean enough to her, outweighed by her own dislike. That would be perfectly understandable. 

However, from Arcueid's behavior towards Fang Li, this was clearly not the case. 

If it meant saving Fang Li, Arcueid would be willing to do anything. 

Even something she despised, like drinking blood. 

However, Arcueid was even more reluctant to drink blood. 

And it wasn't for any other reason - just because it was Fang Li. 

"Vampires are hunters, and those who are drained are all prey." 

Just like humans hunt animals for their fur and meat without hesitation. 

That's because humans see animals as inferior beings and naturally hunt them for survival. 

The relationship between vampires and humans is essentially the same. 

"But I don't want to treat Fang Li like prey. I don't want to see him as something beneath me." 

If she did, Arcueid would no longer be able to see Fang Li as an equal. 

It was because she saw Fang Li as an equal that she refused to treat him as prey. 

If she did that, Arcueid had a feeling... 

She would break down completely and lose herself. 

"So I won't drink Fang Li's blood." 

She refused to compromise on this point. 

Ciel was completely speechless. 

Her silence was a mixture of surprise and confusion. 

Surprised that the princess of the True Ancestors could have such thoughts. 

This was nothing like the strongest True Ancestor, who only did extermination missions. 

So Ciel looked directly at Arcueid and said, "If you don't drink his blood, he will die. Are you okay with that?" 

This question elicited a firm response from Arcueid. 

"No, I won't let him die." 

Saying this, Arcueid gently picked up Fang Li. 

"Ugh... cough...!" 

Blood continued to flow from Fang Li's mouth unconsciously. 

It was an incredibly horrible situation. 

However, seeing Fang Li like this, Arcueid smiled. 

This smile was no longer bitter, but filled with satisfaction. 

"Perhaps this is fate as well." 

With these words, Arcueid bit her tongue. 

The blood of the most noble royal family among the True Ancestors trickled out of Arcueid's mouth. 

Then she gently pressed her lips to Fang Li's. 

And just like that, she kissed him. 

"Gulp..." 

With the sound of swallowing, Fang Li swallowed the blood that Arcueid passed to him with her tongue. 

"Buzz..." 

At that moment, a faint glow began to radiate from Arcueid's body. 

Like fireflies, the light slowly rose from Arcueid's body and drifted towards Fang Li. 

Eventually, it merged with Fang Li's body. 

"Buzz..." 

Immediately, Fang Li's entire body began to emit a similar glow. 

"You..." 

Seeing this, Ciel was finally shocked. 

"You're giving him all your power?" 

Yes. 

Arcueid was transferring all of her power into Fang Li's body. 

Using her own blood as a medium. 

Using the power that Roa had stolen and was gradually returning as the path. 

Bit by bit, she forced all the power out of her body and injected it into Fang Li. 

"Are you crazy?" 

Ciel spoke in shock. 

"If you do that, you'll become an empty shell. Once your vampiric impulses resurface, you won't be able to suppress them. Even your mind will be shattered by the vampiric urges, and you'll turn into a wild beast with no intelligence!" 

After all, faced with the overwhelming desire that even a True Ancestor couldn't resist, an empty shell with no power would have its mind instantly shattered. 

At that point, Arcueid would be nothing more than a wild beast in human form. 

Like a primitive human with no developed intelligence, even if the vampiric impulses within her body were resolved, she wouldn't be able to recover her original consciousness. 

"So, I will return to the Millennium Castle immediately to sleep, to protect my mind from the vampiric impulses." 

Arcueid spoke weakly. 

"I'll leave Fang Li in your care."
