Chapter 295: Vampiric calling

Yumi's eyes lit up with surprise, but she still kept her mouth shut, still unsure of my intentions. Despite my tone being quite menacing, my touch was gentle which confused her.

"Thank you, Miss. We will be on our way then." The head maid visibly looked relieved, but she made sure to not make it too obvious. The other maids all bowed and quickly left, leaving Yumi with me.

"Alright Yumi, come inside." I opened the door inside revealing a rather standard noble bedroom with a colour scheme of red and black. I quickly did a scan of the room to see if there was any magic at play and to check if my grandfather had the decency to not watch me in my room.

'If anything, that is what the maid is for, but seeing as she is new and timid, I can easily win her over. Still, he might have planted something inside that allows him to see the truth.' I grabbed a chair from the nearby desk and spun it around before sitting down to stare at Yumi.
