"After thinking long and hard, I decided that I wanted to become stronger," Stephen said with a serious expression. "Even if it meant drinking your blood in the process."
Ciel nodded because he admired Stephen's straightforwardness. "Do you want to start now?"
"Yes," Stephen replied. "The sooner the better."
"Understood then please lie on the bed. There's a chance that you might lose your consciousness in your first session. It would be best if we do it while you are in a comfortable position."
"Okay."
