Chapter 809 - 15.28
"He is amazing, right? He is my beloved Duke Damien of Delcostro. He is the man who shows me that a vampire can be good too, and a saint... can be evil."
Han Shun turned his head to the left when he heard the voice. He looked up when he saw the man was very tall, possibly ahead taller than the pale Duke, while Han Shun was only at his chest level.
The man had blonde hair and blue eyes. But looking at his young face, he was probably only a few years older than Han Shun right now.
"The Duke always told me that not everything was black and white. He was a vampire, the vilest thing on earth that should be purged by the church. And I was a future saint, the person whose presence should be a blessing to everyone in their lands."
"But I misused my power. I ordered the massacre of 300 people just because they refused to convert to my religion. I thought it’s the best thing that I could do as the appointed individual chosen by the god."
"But Duke Damien showed me how misguided and evil I was. He showed me there was good in every evil, and there was evil in every good. He was a saint before me, hundreds of years ago...."
"But he misused his power as well. He killed hundreds of thousands of people just to fit that blind idealism. He was forbidden to enter heaven, and as a punishment, he was sent back to the earth as a vampire."
"I fell in love with him quickly, but it would take a while for me to realize my feelings for him. He was the vampire who was better than a saint, the vampire with endless patience and kindness in his heart. Meanwhile, I am a failed saint who will never be a completely good one. Because deep in my heart, I hate everyone who lives in this world because I can see their sins, except for Duke Damien."
"He was clean without a sin."
