The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?
Chapter 101 Liu Zheng’s meat-to-vegetable ratio is 1:1

Chapter 101: Chapter 101 Liu Zheng’s meat-to-vegetable ratio is 1:1

The receptionist saw Liu Zheng descend the stairs, a flash of ferocity sparking in her eyes.

But she quickly hid it, replacing it with a smile.

"How did it go?"

She approached and asked.

"It was a bit different from what I expected, but the outcome isn’t too bad, I guess."

Liu Zheng nodded.

Although Huang Mao turned into golden hair, he had tricked the sea girl into going fishing.

In some ways, this outcome was even better.

"And what about Vlad III?"

The receptionist asked with anticipation.

"I’ll go back and ask, but I can’t make any promises."

Liu Zheng said.

"Then I shall await the good news from my master."

The receptionist said obediently.

"By the way, what’s your name?"

He asked.

"You can just call me Ai Er, master."

"I want your real name."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

At his words, the receptionist’s complexion changed.

Her carefully retracted fangs snapped out again, and her fingertips turned slightly pale.

"If I don’t tell you, will you not handle Vlad III for me?"

She asked icily.

"Of course not, I’ll keep the promise I made to you. It’s just a matter of whether I consider you a friend or not."

Liu Zheng said.

"What difference does it make whether you consider me a friend or not?"

"The difference is huge. People who know me are aware that I’m always generous with friends. For instance, if you can’t afford the price for Vlad III, I could consider letting you pay in installments."

He said.

"Then, what’s your real name?"

The receptionist hesitated for a moment before asking.

"I’m the one asking you."

"My real name is Emile."

The receptionist pursed her lips and leaned in close to Liu Zheng’s ear to speak.

"My name is Liu Zheng. Here, take this to eat."

He took out a duplicate "sour fish dish" from the takeaway box and handed it to the receptionist.

The effect of this dish wasn’t very useful for him, so it was better used to curry favor.

"How can I accept this?"

The receptionist was flattered.

This was Bloody Restaurant’s takeaway, something even her Blood Father wouldn’t indulge in.

"Like I said, I’m always generous with friends. You’ll find out that one takeaway isn’t worth squat."

Liu Zheng said arrogantly.

His brash demeanor actually caused a glint of admiration in the receptionist’s eyes.

"Actually, being a girlfriend would be okay too."

She said coyly.

"Let’s not, thanks."

Liu Zheng flatly refused without hesitation.

"Why? Am I not pretty enough? Not big enough? You were clearly sneaking peeks just now."

The receptionist said disgruntledly, sticking out her chest.

"Cough, well, that was actually an assessment of strength."

"Tsk. Are you put off by a vampire’s bad reputation?"

The receptionist considered a possibility and quickly tried to justify.

"I’m not like those promiscuous ones; we’re Puritans in my family, very strict; I haven’t even kissed a boy yet."

Well, a Puritan vampire, what a hell of a joke.

"It’s not you. I promised the Fisherman I’d woo the sea girl, and if I two-time, he’ll feed me to the fish."

Liu Zheng found a reasonable excuse.

"No worries, I’ll wait until you break up."

The receptionist said nonchalantly.

After all, she was a vampire, and the one thing she wasn’t short of was time.

"Good luck with that."

Not to mention whether he could woo the sea girl, even if he did, the likelihood was that the breakup would coincide with his departure from the instance.

"By the way, Emile, do you urgently need the money you have?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Not urgently. Do you want to borrow some?"

The receptionist asked.

"If you’re not strapped for cash, then lend me some."

He said somewhat awkwardly.

After a spree of buying, his funds were indeed running low.

"I can lend you, but with one condition."

After pondering for a while, the receptionist said.

"What condition?"

"Just let me have a little taste of your blood,"

The receptionist said with a cheery smile.

"Hey, no big deal, I thought for a second you were gonna make me sign a promissory note."

Liu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"I’ll draw the blood for you directly, how much do you need? Is a pound enough?"

He took out the boning knife and asked.

With "Blood and Flesh Rebirth" in effect, his flesh-to-meat yield was practically 1:1. Not to mention blood, he could provide as much marrow as needed.

"Enough, enough. No need to draw it out, I can just suck it directly."

The receptionist licked her lips.

"Suck it... You won’t turn me into a vampire, right?"

Liu Zheng was somewhat apprehensive.

He was not in his normal state, and awakening the "Vampire Bloodline" could very well cause a conflict.

"Relax, becoming a vampire isn’t that simple. That would consume my Life Essence. Even if you wanted to change, I wouldn’t be willing to give it."

The receptionist said.

"Alright then. But be gentle, it’s my first time."

Liu Zheng closed his eyes, looking completely at her mercy.

Two tentacles stealthily reached into his pocket, one holding a teething stick and the other the Golden Finger.

"Don’t worry, I’m very skilled at this, it won’t hurt a bit."

The receptionist said with a smile, inching closer to his neck.

Then, she took out a straw.

"Huh?"

Liu Zheng’s expression turned to o.0?

"It’s more hygienic this way. Don’t worry, I’ve sterilized the utensils with ultraviolet light."

The receptionist said proudly.

"Fighting poison with poison, huh."

He had barely finished his quip when the straw pierced into his neck.

The receptionist hadn’t lied, it really didn’t hurt much, just like a needle prick.

Even though he had no idea how a paper straw had managed to pierce his shell, it wasn’t necessary to understand the peculiarities of the residents.

As the receptionist made sucking motions, Liu Zheng could clearly feel his blood being drawn away in spurts.

Weakness washed over him in waves, quickly replenished by regenerating blood.

Overall, it wasn’t uncomfortable, and there was even a peculiar sense of pleasure.

He suddenly understood those who liked bloodletting therapy.

"Burp~"

It was unclear how much time had passed, but the receptionist finally stopped, letting out a satisfied burp.

Her gaze was vacant, cheeks flushed, and all her veins had turned the same purplish-red as Liu Zheng’s blood.

The whole person looked in a dazed state of overindulgence.

Does this count as pouring my heart and soul into her?

He thought with a weird expression.

After all, for him, bones and blood were pretty much the same thing.

"Can’t, can’t drink anymore."

The receptionist said with difficulty.

"Your appetite isn’t up to par, huh."

Liu Zheng was chewing on a piece of dried fish, taking the opportunity to tease.

"It’s your blood that’s the problem, too hard to digest. Sucking ecological blood these days is really tough."

The receptionist complained a bit.

"Blame me, will you."

He rolled his eyes.

"Lalala. Here, take this money."

Since they had exchanged their true names, the receptionist had become noticeably more lively.

"So generous? Is this a gift or a loan?"

Liu Zheng estimated it to be about thirty thousand.

"I can also give it to you if you accept my first embrace and then marry me."

The receptionist said.

"Then it’s a loan."

He crumpled the money into a ball and stuffed it in his pocket.

"I’m off."

Liu Zheng patted his behind and left.

"Jerk, pah!"

The receptionist spat, touching the spot where she’d been slapped.

Upon leaving the tabletop gaming cafe, Liu Zheng didn’t forget to greet the statue either.

"Goodbye, Witch Your Highness."

He waved to the Witch statue.

The eyes of the Witch statue shifted, and a coffee with a sweet treat floated out of the bag and into her hands.

"Wow, highway robbery."

The thought had barely crossed Liu Zheng’s mind when thunder rumbled above him.

"This is my tribute to the Witch Your Highness, if it’s not enough, feel free to take more."

He said sincerely.

The dark clouds dispersed, but a slender bolt of lightning still streaked down, striking his tentacle.

Liu Zheng raised the tentacle to see that it now bore an inverted pentagram mark.

Although he didn’t understand its meaning, his instinct told him it probably wasn’t a bad thing.

"Really off then."

Liu Zheng bowed his tentacle and turned towards the direction of the Bloody Restaurant.

Atop the Gothic spire, the bronze shell of the statue melted away.

A Witch in a crimson cloak took a sip of coffee, her lifeless eyes gradually glowing with vitality.

"Humans are indeed more useful."

She said with a mischievous smile, watching Liu Zheng’s retreating figure.

A massive cauldron illusion appeared before her, and from the thick brew rose a Potion simmering with flames and lightning.

It was none other than the blasphemy potion.
