Is it okay to run away with me?

Chapter 2 Helios
  There are many people who believe in occultism and firmly believe that there are witches in this world, but as for the existence of vampires, everyone only regards it as an ancient legend.

Helios is the third son of the only vampire family living in London.

Helios also has a brother and a sister. My brother’s name is Dylan, which means the god of waves. My sister’s name is Nix, which means the goddess of darkness.

The name Helios means the sun god.

This name suits him very well, because unlike his brothers and sisters, he has a pair of beautiful red eyes. Matte dark red, the lines of the pupils are as beautiful as cracked rubies.

Aside from these red eyes, Helios also has the ability to control fire. This ability is innate. When Helios was born, he could already light 1000 candles in the castle in an instant.

They are genetically superior beings among vampires. They only need to eat human blood once a year, have access to sunlight, and are not afraid of crosses and onions. Their lives are no different from ordinary British people. They also like to listen to music and can eat human coffee and cakes. They also have romantic artistic qualities.

Helios' favorite thing to do is to go to a coffee shop and read a book. He can read stories written by humans all afternoon.

Every week when Helios goes to the coffee shop to read, it causes a stir in the coffee shop, and the girls fanatically pursue Helios. They went crazy for this young man with black hair and black eyes, but a face that was more delicate than a woman's.

Helios' sister Nyx was born with the ability to disguise herself, and this ability can also be effective on a certain part of other people's bodies. She always complained: "When you are a vampire and you live in a castle, isn't it good to live a quiet life? You have to go out and cause commotion, and I have to help you disguise yourself every time."

But this commotion is not because of his identity, but because of his appearance and temperament.

The false identity he created for himself was that of a Chinese-English hybrid, so he had black hair and black eyes. The girls were even more crazy. They curiously asked Helios about the stories of the magical East.

Helios has actually never been to China, but he has read a lot of stories about the magical Eastern Continent in books, so he picked them up and told the young people in the coffee shop "The Legend of White Snake", "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" and other stories. "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai".

I don't know why, but Helios always wants to know more about that magical eastern continent.

So in the snowy London winter, Helios met a girl with an oriental face in that cafe.

There was a strength in the girl's eyebrows, just like what the Chinese call the valor of a female general. Despite such strong eyebrows, her small nose and lips looked extremely delicate, and the combination of them on her face was also very moving.

Reading in a cafe seemed to have become a trend brought by Helios, and everyone followed his example and ordered a cup of coffee to read. The girl didn't like to talk very much and was very silent. She was holding an English book in her hand called "Vampire Talk".

Helios suppressed a smile and greeted the oriental-faced girl.

"Are you interested in vampires?"

The girl raised her eyes, did not answer, and just nodded.

"Is your English bad? I can speak Chinese." Helios said with a smile.

The afternoon sun was just right, making Helios's smile look very dazzling. He looked like a beautiful and erudite boy who had stepped out of an oil painting.

But the girl frowned.

Helios learned that fluent Chinese by secretly going to a foreign language class at the University of London when he was bored. His extraordinary memory and language talent made him proficient in multiple languages.

When Helios was complacent about his fluent Chinese, the girl closed the book and stared at him with a look that Helios couldn't read.

This look is like a hunter judging the value of the prey in front of him. Such suspicious eyes also made Helios a little confused.

"Do you come here to read a book every day?" the girl asked.

Helios thought about his sister complaining every day that he didn't always stay in the castle, so he shook his head and said, "Come once a week." "When will he come next week?"

"This girl from China, are you inviting me on a date..." Helios blinked his long eyelashes, and through the sunlight, the flying dust seemed to be transformed into beautiful velvet flowers by him. .

For some reason, he even had an inexplicable fondness for people with oriental faces.

"Come next Sunday," Helios said, and he asked, "What's your name?"

The girl paused: "Si Tong."

Helios thought: The wanton Si, the pupils of the eyes.

"Your surname is different from the Chinese surnames I know."

Si Tong walked out of the coffee shop facing the sun. The sun shone on her black plush cloak. There was a golden bow and arrow seal on her chest.

She is the youngest and most potential gold hunter in existence. The only thing they have done for generations is to hunt vampires.

The gold hunters have not appeared for a hundred years. They disappeared for a hundred years due to internal fighting within the family, so the vampires have relaxed their vigilance during this hundred years.

Gold hunters are also human beings, and their lifespans are the same as humans. They pass on the methods of hunting vampires from generation to generation.

So when the new star of Si Tong's generation was rising, they started their plan to hunt vampires again. This time, the Chinese emperor stood behind them, with a steady stream of weapons and financial support.

Just in the cafe, Si Tong had doubts about the young man who claimed to be of mixed Chinese and English descent.

Si Tong has been in London for a month, but has made no progress in finding vampires. She even doubted whether the family's information was wrong, but the accidental encounter with Helios gave her an intuition.

Her intuition told her that this boy's background must be related to vampires. His dazzling, sculpture-like golden-proportioned face and foreign language talent just speak of his superior genes.

And vampire genes happen to be God's proud work.

As soon as Helios returned to the castle, he turned into a vampire boy with silver hair and red eyes. His steps were brisk. As soon as he walked into the dim restaurant, all the candlesticks in the restaurant lit up. Nix, who was sleeping lightly, said: "Don't light the candles anymore. We are vampires and we don't need so much light."

Helios muttered softly: "But I like it."

Dylan, wearing an unusually gorgeous tuxedo, said, "I'm going to go foraging."

Helios and Nyx both turned around: "Your one-year period is coming so soon?"

Yes, this is winter in London, with heavy snow falling outside the window. At this time last year, Dylan only sucked human blood once.

"It's wonderful, it's so satisfying," he said.

Even if it is just a meal to maintain body functions, vampires will feel extremely graceful.

But they are a very cautious vampire family. They just hope to continue to survive and will not overeat for satisfaction.
