On the other side, In the cafeteria People are in the middle of an illusion Though Quirina is in pain and struggling only the Handsome man and Celeste can see what is happening Celeste is worried but she bear a big responsibility so she can only Act like a normal human being. Seeing that the people are acting like nothing is happening she also did but her heart is aching cause she can see her best friend in pain yet the only thing she can do is eat normally, act normally and observe the other unaffected handsome guy. She was surprised to see a Pained look in the eyes of the Handsome guy for it appears as if it's the first time they've met. But, There seems to be more of it. Then Suddenly Quirina got her Conciousness back looking at the sorroundings she knows something's wrong then she faced the handsome man

"Give me your phone I'll give you my number" Quirina said The Handsome Man then gave her his phone

"Your a Vampire aren't you?" Quirina said coldly to the Handsome Man.

"Let me Introduce myself m'lady I'm Vladimir and I need you to help me with something" The Handsome man smirked staring at her with cold eyes

"What if I say No?" Quirina said to the Handsome man while Celeste is really shocked with what she witnessed

"M'lady It's not up to you Everything's within my grasp You may disagree all you want but you can't retaliate with me If you won't come willfully there's no need for negotiations Don't be naive m'lady your almost 100 years old yet your like a puppy" Vladimir said with a domineering voice paired with his red cold eyes while Quirina just stared at her coldly At this point Celeste can no longer restrain her self and reacted

"Why would you force her even if she doesn't want to!?! You should explain yourself Vlad" Celeste said with a cold voice Quirina is shocked seeing that Celeste is not affected by the illusion

"If it isn't Celeste who abandoned her family, responsibilities and her First Love" Vladimir said then smirked paired with his pale skin and red eyes

"You!! You know I have no choice yet you made me a criminal and have the government hunt me down" Quirina said

"He~ it's your First Love who want you back I just helped my friend" Vladimir said with a cold voice

Seeing the scene unfold Quirina knew that something is going on She can't bare Having her Best friend Dragged down to this so she decided to Negotiate with Count Vladimir

"I'll come with you But I have my conditions"

"Please do say" Vladimir said sitting down on a seat He got using his Powers

"I have 4 conditions: First I want you to guarantee Celeste's safety. Second, I want you to stop the Hunt. Third, I want you not to butt in Celeste and her First Love's problem so it means you can't Hunt her down for your Friend. Lastly, I don't want to be treated as some sort of Slave I want you to remember that I'm here to help you and that you need me so you can't boss me Around" Quirina stated

"The conditions are fine with me But I also have my conditions" Vladimir Said

"As long as my conditions is followed Please do say" Quirina said

"I Want You To Provide Me Life Force and I want you to help me Break my Curse" Vladimir stated

Celeste didn't expect Vladimir to abide cause Vladimir is the ruler of the Underworld though His not a Bad Guy He wasn't A Good One Either Celeste is stunned seeing the scene unfold "I want to tag along" Celeste said Firm with her words she can't let Quirina go to the underworld herself

"No you'll stay here or you'll be dragged down by this mess" Quirina said to Celeste

"I also have a mess to clean I'll go with you no matter what I'll stay by your side as a Friend I won't let you enter a war without me" Celeste stated firmly with her words Quirina's stunned and she knew she can do nothing about it

"Fine, But you have alot that you need to tell me" Quirina said

"So should we head out now?" Vladimir impatiently said

"I still have things I need to sort out and I still need to take exams" Quirina said

"You can't. We're running out of time" Vladimir said Coldly

Quirina looked at Celeste communicating with her using her powers

"Celeste What do you think?"

"We should head out It's about breaking the curse and The Underworld is in chaos right now We need to Head there as soon as possible" Celeste stated

Quirina looked at Vladimir coldly. Vladimir Understood what She was saying just by her gaze Then they head out

"So where's the path to the Underworld?" Quirina said

"We need to go the Forest first We can't go to the Underworld by Teleporting In Here or else we'll get caught" Vladimir Said

"Vlad It seems like you've gotten weaker" Celeste said

"It's none of your business" Vladimir Coldly said

"The Curse---What's your curse?" Quirina Said

"We'll talk things out once we arrive in the Castle" Vladimir said
