My girlfriend is Saiki Kusunoki

On the other hand, Destruction Ronne was also trying to recover her master's injuries and restore her own magic power.

Everyone is making the most of their time to improve themselves.

In contrast, things were not so peaceful at the church.

First, the Gray Ones discovered that Nightblade was still alive when he was escaping.

After investigating everything in secret, I discovered that I had been completely deceived.

He even killed Nightblade's sister.

At this moment, the Gray One felt betrayed by everyone.

I felt distrustful of everyone around me, and my emotions nearly collapsed several times.

Meanwhile, War Princess decided to completely destroy Australia, and a grand battle immediately began.

In terms of plot, this is undoubtedly the grandest battle in the history of vampires, and readers are wondering how the story will end.

Since there is no original work to refer to for these plot points, Naoto can only try his best to fill in the plot holes that were originally left unresolved.

For example, the secret of the War Princess, Ling'er's identity, what kind of existence is the God of Magic, and the identity of the Destroyer Ryūon.

Although it still feels like many secrets have not been revealed, readers are thoroughly enjoying the experience.

In the final battle, Liloie sacrificed herself to save Nightblade, and Nightblade also desperately used the strongest forbidden technique that Destruction Rumble had stuffed into his head, finally defeating the terrifying War Princess.

Looking at the rising sunset and the lifeless girl lying on the ground, Nightblade, who had no strength left, couldn't help but shed tears of blood.

"Could it be that Naoto is going to have a tragic ending?"

Looking at Liloai, who has lost half of her body, I had this feeling.

After all, many comics like to end with a sacrifice.

It's not uncommon for stories to kill off the male and female leads.

If a straight man were to suddenly go crazy and sacrifice the female lead, upon closer reflection, that possibility might actually exist.

At this moment, it seems that the reader has already imagined grabbing Naoto's hand and pulling him frantically.

"ONE teacher, I urge you to be kind!"

"Teacher, no knife! No knife!"

"Teacher, please don't have another attack!"

The thought of Naoto possibly being bombarded with death threats from readers makes me want to laugh, for some reason.

Looking at his friend's wildly upturned lips, Akito wondered what his friend had thought of that made him so happy.

To be fair, who wouldn't love the cute, sweet, and loli-like silver-haired girl, Liloai? Given Liloai's current popularity, if she were to die, Naoto probably wouldn't be able to rest easy. Not to mention, he has a huge following at school, and Naoto doesn't want to become the school's public enemy so soon.

Besides, he wasn't crazy enough to kill the female lead. He's the biggest fan of vampires, okay? A die-hard fan.

As the sun was about to rise, Nightblade called out Liloai's name again and again.

Nightblade was afraid, afraid that Liloai would leave him forever, just like her sister.

Just as the readers were clenching their fists, ready to punch Naoto, Liloie suddenly woke up, swaying unsteadily.

Even though nearly half of her body was gone, Liloai managed to survive thanks to her powerful regenerative abilities and her unique ability, Bloody Nightwish.

"Nightblade, are you crying?"

As Nightblade wept, Liloie slowly raised her right hand and helped Nightblade wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Seeing that Lilloe was still alive, Nightblade cried even louder.

Nightblade was now just like that helpless child, sobbing uncontrollably on Liloie's body.

Liloai gradually pulled Nightblade's head into her arms, soothing the big boy with her gentleness.

It's hard to believe that this crying boy was the one who used the strongest magic to repel the War Princess.

Even the Destroyer Rondo did not master this magic.

And so, the two, both severely injured, embraced each other, feeling each other's presence.

The distant sunrise became their backdrop.

With this scene, the vampire clan finally came to an end.

Putting down the comic book in his hand, he felt a little melancholy.

After watching the final episode, my strongest feeling was one of shock.

The plot, the storyboard, the visual tension, and even the final composition all deeply impressed the author.

The final chapter of Vampire Clan was less about Naoto drawing it, and more about how it was meant to be.

The various dazzling techniques make it seem like a masterpiece of straight-person drawing skills.

At least his limited knowledge told him that achieving this was far too difficult.

This kind of plot ending even left some suspense.

What will happen to the two of them after the sunset? How will things develop? It seems perfect, yet it leaves room for the reader to ponder.

This feeling of letting go yet not completely letting go is something that even after watching the show, it's hard to put into words.

"Why do I feel like the gap between me and Naoto is getting wider and wider?"

Chapter 87: Spending the New Year at Nanzi's House

January 1st, the first day of the new year.

Today is the day the first episode of the animated series "Bloodline" will air.

Because it was a major project, the production team specifically scheduled the broadcast of Vampire Strain for the first day of the holiday.

Although it's only a twelve-episode seasonal anime, everyone from Naoto, the production team, and the editorial department is very concerned about this anime adaptation.

Because it's a holiday, most people in Japan will be staying home tonight, which is a good thing for vampires.

Incidentally, in order to closely follow the promotion of Vampire Clan and even the release of the Vampire Clan single volume, it was on the 3rd, only one day apart.

Although Naoto had watched the first episode more than once, he still felt very nervous when it was actually going to be released.

"Brother, shall we go to Sister Nanzi's house to celebrate the holiday today?"

At Naoto's house, his silly younger sister Reika, who had returned from vacation, looked at Naoto curiously as he was preparing dishes and asked him a question.

Because it felt a bit deserted during the holidays, Nanzi's mother suggested that Zhiren simply come to their house this year.

By the way, tonight, Saiki's dad suggested that everyone watch the first episode of Bloodline together, as a way of commemorating the success of Naoto's anime adaptation.

At first, Naoto was a little shy and embarrassed to go over.

But when he thought about how lively it would be to spend time together with everyone, he felt a little embarrassed to look at his own work alone.

However, even though it was agreed to spend the holiday at someone else's house, Naoto naturally wouldn't be completely unprepared.

To this end, Naoto even went to Boss Liu's place to learn how to make some dim sum and authentic Sichuan cuisine. He planned to treat the Qi Mu family to a good meal today.

"Sniff, smells so good! Brother, what are you doing?"

At this moment, Lingxiang walked over curiously and saw Naoto tumbling around in the oil pan. Lingxiang could only smell that it smelled especially delicious.

"It's nothing, just simple fried rice cakes made from soybean flour."

At this moment, Naoto placed a fried rice cake into a plate and sprinkled it with soybean powder.

Back when we were in China, I really liked this snack.

Although most of the products used are semi-finished products from the supermarket, it's really nice to eat something sweet after eating all that greasy food.

Just then, out of the corner of his eye, Naoto saw a small hand reaching for the rice cakes on the plate.

Without a second thought, Naoto grabbed the owner of the hand.

"I said, it's not done yet, don't rush."

"But I want to eat."

When Naoto heard the owner of the voice, he was stunned and realized that the person he had grabbed was actually Nanko, who had come to his house at some unknown time.

Naoto really didn't expect that his snacks would attract Nanko.

Nanzi was naturally curious about something she had never eaten before, so she couldn't resist trying it.

"Ahem, since Nanzi wants to try it, I'll let you try it first."

"Huh?! You idiot brother! What do you mean by this?! Why can you let Sister Nan eat it, but I can't?!"

"That's because Nanzi can help me taste it."

"I can do it too! Humph! Bro, you're only doing this because Nanzi is your girlfriend, right? Now that you have a girlfriend, you don't want your sister anymore, huh?! I'll punch you!"

"Ha, so what if I like Nanko! You're so outdated, Lingxiang!"

While the siblings were playfully fighting, Nanzi was observing how to eat the soybean flour rice cake.

"Nanzi, it will taste even better if you dip the rice cake in brown sugar water."

Seeing that Nanzi seemed a bit helpless, Naoto kindly offered her some advice.

Upon hearing Naoto's suggestion, Nanko carefully picked up a piece of rice cake and dipped it in brown sugar syrup.

When the rice cake was put into her mouth, Nanzi's first sensation was the sweetness of the brown sugar.

Next, you'll smell the aroma of soybean flour and glutinous rice.

The sweet taste is so wonderful.

It's very sweet, but not overly so.

The brown sugar has just the right amount of sweetness, and with the addition of soybean powder, it's doubly sweet.

The two kinds of sweetness have completely different sensations.

The rice cake that Naoto uses is not the hard, sticky Korean-style rice cake.

These rice cakes were all handmade rice cakes that he asked Boss Liu and Mei Li to bring from China.

The aroma of glutinous rice is so enticing that it's not unpleasant to eat on its own; in fact, you'll be drawn to its unique fragrance. This aroma becomes even more pronounced after being deep-fried.
