Charle weaved his way through Diagon Alley, then expertly ducked into the entrance of a deep, dark alley.
Seeing this, the vampire following behind him was also secretly pleased.
He had been worried about how to deal with Charle in the bustling environment of Diagon Alley.
After all, this was within the range where Dumbledore could arrive at any moment. Who knew if Dumbledore might be buying candy in Diagon Alley?
Or if he encountered a few strong wizards who delayed him for a short while, he would be completely finished by the time Dumbledore arrived.
Yet, before he could even figure out how to abduct Charle, Charle himself had ducked into a secluded alley?
"I remember this alley."
The vampire muttered to himself in a low voice.
"This alley seems to be Knockturn Alley, the gathering place for dark wizards in Britain."
"It will be much more convenient to make a move here."
"Heh, I remember young wizards are warned not to come to this alley, right? I didn't expect this young wizard named Charle to actually come."
"Is it curiosity? Or rebellion?"
"It doesn't matter. The naughty child will receive a lesson this time that he will never forget."
Immediately, the vampire quickened his pace, swiftly followed Charle, and also slipped into Knockturn Alley.
After Charle entered Knockturn Alley, the atmosphere in the alley became unusually heavy.
The moment the residents of Knockturn Alley saw Charle, their bodies stiffened, as if they were recalling the feeling of being planted in the mud like potatoes.
Their hearts were also filled with bitter complaints.
How long had it been? This little monster had just ransacked Knockturn Alley once, and he was back again?
He wasn't going to do it all over again, was he?!
They were truly dirt poor. Some Knockturn Alley wizards hadn't even gotten new wands yet!
The dark wizards stood stiffly on both sides of the road, looking as if they didn't know what to do.
Just then, they also saw the black-robed vampire following closely behind Charle.
In an instant, the dark wizards seemed to understand something, and their eyes, as they looked at the vampire, were filled with malice and anger.
Well, well, well, you're the one who led the devils... ah no, led Lord Charle here?
Of all the people you could target, you just had to pick this little monster, Charle?
Some dark wizards even cast warning glances at the vampire, hoping to scare him away.
After all, who knew if Charle went crazy later, he might even attack them and rob them again for good measure.
They truly dared not trust Charle's character.
This was someone who could threaten Borgin and Burkes by splashing dung!
At this moment, the vampire also noticed the situation in Knockturn Alley.
Rows of dark wizards stood on both sides, which also made him click his tongue in surprise.
"This Knockturn Alley truly lives up to its reputation, it's quite fierce."
"A young wizard coming in actually attracted so many dark wizards eyeing him covetously?"
He felt a bit of relief.
"It's a good thing I followed quickly, otherwise if I were any later, I'm afraid Charle would only have a few pieces left."
Then, facing the warning glances cast at him by the group of dark wizards, the vampire took off his hood, revealing his bright red eyes.
In his eyes was a fierce and cruel light, as if warning these dark wizards in return – Charle is my prey, all of you get lost!
The dark wizards were already cursing in their hearts.
Truly, good words cannot save a damned ghost!
They had already warned this vampire to leave quickly, and he actually thought the dark wizards were trying to snatch his prey?
"Idiot, there's no saving him!"
A dark wizard muttered a few words to himself, then turned and went back into his house, closing the doors and windows tightly.
The other dark wizards followed suit, closing their doors and windows tightly, and even pulling the curtains shut, leaving not a single gap.
It was as if everything that was about to happen in Knockturn Alley had nothing to do with them. They knew nothing and saw nothing!
Seeing the dark wizards' behavior and the empty Diagon Alley in the blink of an eye, the vampire's lips curved into a smug smile.
"I thought I would have to spend more effort dealing with these dark wizards, but I didn't expect them to be quite sensible. They must have recognized my Vampire Earl's blood-red eyes and know how powerful I am."
"This way, things will be much more convenient from now on."
Immediately, the Vampire Earl no longer concealed his footsteps.
Tap, tap-tap...
His leather boots made a crisp sound against the stone slabs of Knockturn Alley, the echo reverberating through the alley.
The Vampire Earl moved with elegant, unhurried steps, like an experienced hunter who had already locked onto his prey.
At this moment, Charle, the "prey," seemed to hear the movement behind him as well.
An eleven-year-old little wizard, who had stumbled into a place like Knockturn Alley, now found the alley empty except for the pressing footsteps from behind.
One could imagine how he felt.
Afraid, so afraid!
Charle was so scared that tears flowed from the corners of his mouth. He quickly wiped them away and ran towards the deeper, more winding parts of the alley.
A playful smile curved the Vampire Earl's lips, and he continued to pursue at the same unhurried pace.
Several minutes later, in a dead end, the Vampire Earl caught up to Charle.
Looking at Charle's back, the playful look in the Vampire Earl's eyes grew even stronger.
"Oh?"
"Did you realize something was wrong?"
"Are you scared?"
"But it's too late now, poor child."
"Remember, don't enter such a dangerous place alone next time."
He approached Charle step by step, elegantly, and then saw Charle's body trembling, as if he was trying his best to endure something.
The Vampire Earl opened his mouth, revealing sharp fangs, and slowly moved towards Charle's neck.
"Don't worry, it will all be over soon."
"Once I know what I need from your blood, you won't be afraid anymore, child. In return, you will gain eternal life."
"Now, reveal everything to me!"
Instantly, the Vampire Earl took an elegant bite, as if sipping red wine, and bit down on Charle's neck.
But the next moment, the sensation on his teeth was not that of piercing a blood vessel and blood spreading.
Instead, it was a sharp pain, as if he had bitten into an iron ingot!
The Vampire Earl covered his mouth, crying out in pain.
"What is this?!"
At this moment, Charle turned around.
Only then did the Vampire Earl realize that Charle, who had been trembling since just now, did not have an expression of fear on his face at all.
Instead, it was full of longing and excitement, like an old gourmand seeing a delicious meal!
And in this instant, the Vampire Earl's vision went black as Charle's hand gripped his neck, lifting him completely off the ground.
The hand gripping the Vampire Earl felt nothing like that of an eleven-year-old wizard; it was more like the claw of a young dragon!
Charle looked at the Vampire Earl and licked his lips.
"You're a vampire, right? Then you should have a lot of blood."
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I just want to draw a little blood from you."
"Yes, be good, don't resist. Let me draw a little, I really only need a little."
Charle waved his wand and used Transfiguration to conjure a massive blood pump.
At the end of the blood pump was a small swimming pool large enough to bathe an elephant.
Charle licked his lips.
"Just this much, filling three swimming pools will be enough."
"You're a vampire, after all. This much blood shouldn't be a lot for you, right?"
