The summer has arrived, and the August sunshine is so hot it makes people's heads spin.
Most vampires, if not hiding in the cool castles and manors, are nestled in cities indulging in blood-stained human ribs or hosting balls.
After a year of war, can't they finally enjoy some pleasures?
Besides, isn't the hard-fought war for the sake of enjoyment?
Falan's wine, the Holy Alliance's spices, Xilan's human ribs, and those spider silk clothes and silks.
A vast amount of gold pounds continuously flow back into the hands of Falan and the Holy Alliance from the reckless vampires.
Serafe is aware of this, but she chooses to turn a blind eye.
Unlike countries such as the Holy Alliance or Falan, the nation-building of the vampires is incredibly weak.
For most vampires, especially the noble vampires, clan and self far outweigh nationality.
This leads to Serafe having to use more benefits to entice them.
