I Became The Vampire Progenitor
Chapter 104: I Am Willing to Give Everything to You

Two sun-hours later, when Li De arrived at the first floor of the mage tower with Isha, the apprentices immediately noticed something different.

Yesterday’s shy and timid girl, who kept her head down whenever she encountered someone, now wore a cheerful smile on her face.

Goddess above, once they set aside their prejudices, they realized that Miss Isha, with her ruby-like eyes, was actually stunningly beautiful.

Previously, the only beautiful presence in the Crimson Mage Tower had been Miss Vina, the enchanting red rose.

Now, there was also a pure white lily.

It truly lifted everyone’s spirits.

“Vina, I need to go out for a while. During this time, you’ll be responsible for teaching Isha magical knowledge.”

The tall and graceful figure of Vina stepped forward, her golden wavy hair cascading down her back, exuding an elegant aura.

She gave a kind smile to Isha beside Li De—she too had taken a liking to this pure and innocent girl.

“Yes, Lord Li De.

How long will you be gone this time? The magic scroll factory still requires your decisions.”

The future of magic scrolls would undoubtedly become the most crucial matter for the Crimson Mage Tower, and this was only the beginning. Without Li De’s presence, they couldn’t make any decisions.

After all, no one except Li De knew what the next steps should be.

“Vina, I’ve already written down the techniques for crafting three types of magic scrolls on the desk in the study. For now, you’re responsible for safeguarding them.

You can have Karu study with you.

The Mana-Infused Blood potion can be given to any apprentice who has signed a soul contract.”

“I’m not sure when I’ll return, but I’ll hurry back as soon as possible. The magic scroll factory won’t progress that quickly; Laurent’s preparations will also take some time.

While I’m away, you’ll be in charge of everything at the Crimson Mage Tower.”

Li De paused momentarily, glancing at the nearby apprentices, his tone tinged with emotion.

“You’re the only one I trust.”

Vina’s eyes lit up, and she suddenly broke into a radiant smile.

Under everyone’s watchful gaze, she bowed deeply to Li De and recited a lengthy incantation.

“Oipfnq, mighty deity who governs death and souls, I am your loyal servant, your most devout believer. I willingly borrow your power to sign a Soul Contract with my master.

If the contract is broken, I will offer my soul to serve you eternally, oh great God of Death.”

It was a soul contract.

Li De’s expression slightly froze as he gazed deeply at Vina.

“You didn’t have to do this.”

Among all the apprentices in the mage tower, she was the one he trusted the most. If none of the apprentices had signed a soul contract, anyone might betray him once his vampire identity was exposed.

But not this maid.

This was a level of trust outsiders couldn’t comprehend.

That was why he had never pressed the matter.

Vina resolutely shook her head, revealing a bright and dazzling smile.

“Lord Li De, I am willing to give everything to you.”

After saying this, she suddenly blushed as if realizing something, her cheeks painted with the hues of dawn.

Her captivating blue eyes could no longer meet Li De’s gaze, and she lowered her head deeply.

The sight of her bashfulness was filled with an ethereal beauty.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Li De smiled, stepping forward to gently stroke the girl’s golden hair.

Without a word, he glanced at the apprentices who were staring at him with curiosity-filled faces.

The group of apprentices were startled, immediately turning their heads away.

Li De chuckled softly, shaking his head.

“Stay safe at home. While I’m away, the Crimson Mage Tower will be under Vina’s management. Everyone must follow her orders.”

After speaking, he reached out to ruffle Isha’s head and then turned to leave the mage tower.

Long after Li De’s figure disappeared, life slowly returned to the mage tower.

A group of apprentices wore envious expressions.

“I envy Vina so much—she can earn Lord Li De’s affection.”

“Yes, it’s a pity I’m not a girl; otherwise, I’d pursue Lord Li De without hesitation.”

“Sigh, don’t even think about it. That’s Lord Li De—the ultimate dream lover of countless girls in the Southern District.”

The object of everyone’s envy wasn’t Li De, who received Vina’s admiration, but Vina herself.

This was a high-ranking mage with his own mage tower in Green City, and his teacher was Grand Mage Spark.

Such a prestigious figure was being pursued by Vina first—it was simply too enviable.

Especially among the female apprentices, some cursed themselves for not being beautiful enough to win Lord Li De’s affection.

After Li De left, Vina’s blush gradually faded. In front of the mage apprentices, her calm demeanor returned, and the previous shyness seemed like an illusion.

From the moment Li De brought her into the mage tower, Vina had already decided—her everything was reserved solely for this man. Others held no claim.

Thus, in the eyes of the other apprentices, Vina wasn’t exactly an approachable companion. Her most beautiful side blossomed only in front of Li De.

“I believe everyone knows that recently, Lord Li De developed a new type of magic potion. This precious potion allows mage apprentices to break through and become formal mages.”

Vina’s words caused an immediate stir among the apprentices below.

Who didn’t know that Vina and Karu, the only two formal mages in the Crimson Mage Tower, owed their advancement to Lord Li De’s magic potion?

They had all signed soul contracts for it.

Vina’s tone grew more impassioned.

“For the sake of the Crimson Mage Tower, for all of you, Lord Li De spent over ten thousand Gold Pucks to refine a batch of new magic potions!”

Whoosh~

This sent the apprentices into an uproar.

“A new magic potion? Does this mean we might have a chance to use it?”

“Long live Lord Li De!! Praise the goddess, praise Lord Li De!!”

“Miss Vina, can we use it this time?”

The apprentices’ hearts burned with hope. Who didn’t want to become a prestigious formal mage?

Now, the opportunity was right in front of them.

A profound smile appeared on Vina’s delicate face.

The easier something was to obtain, the less people cherished it. Though Li De hadn’t said anything, she wouldn’t let anyone think the Mana-Infused Blood was cheap.

“All apprentices who have been part of the Crimson Mage Tower for over a year, step forward.”

Whoosh, the crowd below took a synchronized step forward. There were fifteen apprentices who had been there for over a year, leaving six others with envious expressions.

“Lord Li De has paid a tremendous price for your ability to become formal mages. It’s not just about the Gold Pucks.

Each magic potion requires the hunting of powerful magical beasts to refine.

Remember this—your ability to become mages today is thanks to Lord Li De’s life-risking battles.

If anyone ever dares to rebel against Lord Li De or betrays the Crimson Mage Tower,

I swear upon the Goddess of Magic that I will personally kill you.”

Vina’s tone was solemn, her gaze unwavering.

The crowd below felt deeply moved. Betrayal? After signing soul contracts, such thoughts could never arise again.

At this moment, they were filled with gratitude toward Li De. Everyone understood how rare these high-grade magic potions were.

“Miss Vina, we are willing to fight for Lord Li De with our lives.”

“The Crimson Mage Tower is our everything.”

“We will never become betrayers!”

Nearby, Isha watched Vina’s actions with admiration in her heart.

She hoped that one day she could be like Sister Vina, truly becoming her teacher’s helper.
