Marion's eyes widened in disbelief when she heard Drake's words come out of his mouth, but in the next second, she laughed uncontrollably.
"Oh, Drake ... I swear, this is a really funny joke. Are you testing me? Or getting revenge on me for pranking you earlier, hm?" Marion asked, still with a lingering laugh that could be heard echoing in the room they were in.
Drake, who was serious at first, was now scratching the back of his neck. "I'm not convincing, am I?" the man asked, timidly. "I thought you'd be surprised and see if what I said was true or not."
Marion shook her head in surprise.
"Drake ... where is that sort of thing these days? Vampires, werewolves, or whatever ... really it's just a fantasy fairy tale whose purpose is to scare little children. My grandparents used to tell me about it, but I know their intentions."
"So you don't believe in that?"
