Slap, slap, slap!
Although he hadn't regained the strength of a Lower Blood Warrior, he wasn't far from it. Gray quickly retreated and dodged Elise's claw.
However, Alice's low-level Blood Warrior's reaction was also fast. Gray dodged the claw that was aimed at his throat, and then he took a step forward, his five fingers grabbing at Gray's right arm.
Slap!
At this moment, a soft sound rang out. Ai Lisi's hand that was grabbing at Gray's wrist was firmly grasped by a skinny hand.
Elise struggled but couldn't break free. She looked angrily at Lin De who was holding her wrist and said angrily.
"Lin De, you dare to touch me!"
"Young Master Elise, please don't slander me. I only stopped you from attacking Young Master Gray. After all, before the Viscount left, he specifically told me to protect Young Master Gray's safety."
He wasn't lying. Before Viscount Fergus left, he did specifically look for him and told him to protect Gray's safety.
It was from these words and actions that Viscount Fergus regarded Gray with extraordinary importance, which was why he made the decision to stand up for Gray.
Seeing Elise restrained by Lin De, Gray's expression didn't change, but he sighed softly in his heart.
He should have been able to dodge the grab just now, but if they continued to fight like this for a dozen more times, it would be a bit difficult.
Although he was already very close to becoming a Lower Blood Warrior, he was still a bit away from becoming one. On the other hand, Elise was already a genuine Lower Blood Warrior.

It was clear that Elise hadn't had time to take his blood. Not only his, she hadn't even had time to take her own.
Gray was not in a hurry to retrieve the blood of the blood fiends. Instead, he walked towards the freckled servant Neeson who had struggled to stand up while clutching his stomach after being kicked into the house. Neeson had a hostile look on his face.
Even if Elise was behind it, it was still extremely daring for a mere manservant to dare to make things difficult for him.
He asked, looking back at Barbara.
"Which hand did he hit you with?"
"Right hand."
The part of her face that had been slapped still hurt, and it seemed to have swollen. Babla said with grievance.
"Right hand?"
Turning around, Gray clenched his fist and punched Nissen's arm.
Crack!
The sound of bones breaking could be heard. The freckled servant Neeson's right forearm was bent unnaturally.
He was just an ordinary person who couldn't even beat a normal soldier, so naturally, his physical fitness wouldn't be that strong. After being punched by Sean, whose strength was close to that of a low-level Blood Warrior, his arm bones were immediately broken.
"Ah —"
Not expecting Gray to be so ruthless, the freckled servant Neeson roared in pain and struggled wildly, trying to attack Gray again.
Bang!
Gray punched again, this time on the chest of the freckled servant Neeson, sending him flying and crashing into the wall. He screamed continuously and didn't get up for a long time.
Regardless of the other party's miserable state, as long as he didn't kill him, he wouldn't be afraid even if the viscount complained. After all, he was in the right today.
Gray looked at Babla and said.
"Bring the blood of the blood fiends to my bedroom!"
After some thought, Gray added.
"Bring both of them away."
"Gray, don't you dare!"
Elise was already furious when she saw Gray break her valet's arm. Now that she heard that Gray was going to take away her share of the blood fiends' blood, she couldn't hold back her anger.
"Even with such good conditions in the castle, I still spent two and a half years to barely become a low-level Blood Warrior. Second Brother, it's a waste for the blood fiends' blood to remain in your hands. Why don't you lend it to me first and return it to you next time?"
After saying this, Gray had Babla carry the tray with the blood fiends' blood and leave Elise's room.
He was in the right for breaking Neeson's arm when he attacked Babla. Only the last one, which was to take away Elise's share of the blood fiends' blood, was unreasonable.
His motive for doing this wasn't just to take revenge on Elise, but for a deeper reason.
Although he estimated that his strength would rise to that of a low-level Blood Warrior after consuming the blood fiends' blood again, it was only an estimate after all, and he couldn't be sure.
He had only consumed the blood fiends' blood once since he'd taken over this body, and he didn't know if the effects would be as good the next time.
Therefore, he seized the opportunity to snatch Ai Lisi's portion of blood beast blood as well. With two portions of blood beast blood, he estimated that he would be able to cultivate the power of blood again and regain his strength as a low-level Blood Warrior. It should be a cinch.
Seeing that Gray had indeed taken away his portion of crimson blood as well, Alice was so angry that he was about to go crazy. If it weren't for the fact that Linde, a high-ranking blood warrior, had restrained him, he would definitely have pounced on Gray again.
"Gray, don't be so arrogant. When Father comes back, I'll teach you a lesson. Don't think that I don't know that there's something wrong with your body …"
"There's something wrong with my body?
Second Brother, do you really think that I don't know that you're hiding in the house? Do you really think that I stopped training after reaching my limit? "
Gray didn't even bother to turn around, his face full of contempt.
"If you really think that there's something wrong with me, you can tell Father when he comes back."
After saying this, Gray immediately left Elise's bedroom.
"Excuse me, Young Master Elise."
After he left Elise's bedroom, Linde released Elise's hand and also left Elise's room.
In his opinion, Gray had injured the freckled footman Neeson and snatched Elise's share of blood fiends' blood. It was just a normal child's revenge mentality.
As for what Elise had said about Gray's body having a problem, he didn't take it seriously.
From the conversation, it wasn't hard to tell that Elise had been tricked by Gray. Evidently, Gray had sensed that Elise was spying on him and deliberately stopped training halfway.
On the other hand, because Gray had snatched Elise's share of blood fiends' blood, he was afraid that Madame De Milan would summon him for questioning in the future. However, he wasn't afraid.
When he decided to stand up for Gray, he already knew that he would offend Elise and Madame De Milan. He was a lord after all, and Madame De Milan, who didn't even have a noble title, couldn't do anything to him.
As for when the viscount returned, he estimated that there was a ninety percent chance that the viscount would side with Gray. After staying in the castle for so many years, he was very clear about the viscount's temper.
"He actually knew that I was hiding in the house at that time. Did he do it on purpose for me to see?!"
Elise was obviously frightened by Gray's words before he left. She was bewildered and took a long time to recover.
If he had really been tricked by Gray this time, he was afraid that even if he reported this to his father, he wouldn't be able to get anything out of it. After all, he was the one who made things difficult for Gray first, and Gray retaliated.
"No, that fellow must be bluffing. Maybe he only found out that I was hiding in the house when he left."
His expression was cloudy and uncertain.
"Hmph, I didn't plan to say it directly. When the time comes, I'll just challenge Gray. Whether he's a lower blood warrior or not will be clear after a battle."
In the corridor, under the watchful eyes of some servants who had heard the commotion, Gray, Barbara, and Linde entered Gray's bedroom.
"Lord Linde, thank you for this time."
Gray said gratefully to Linde. His gratitude was sincere. Although he said that he would be able to vent his anger and receive compensation when Viscount Fergus returned, he knew his own situation well.
If he didn't have the blood of a blood fiend, it would be very difficult for him to recover the strength of a lower blood warrior by the time Viscount Fergus returned. At that time, when Alice reported him, he wasn't sure what the outcome would be, but it definitely wouldn't be good.
Therefore, this gratitude came from the bottom of his heart.
"Young Master Gray is too courteous. I'll take my leave first. If you need any help in the future, just send a servant to inform me."
Sensing the sincerity in Gray's gratitude, Linde immediately felt satisfied. Offending Elise had not been in vain.
With this person's potential and Viscount Fergus's goal, his future achievements would certainly be extraordinary. As someone who had helped him when he had no power or influence, Linde would certainly not be treated unfairly.
After sending off Linde and having the maid Barbara stand guard outside the door, Gray looked at the two cups of blood on the tea table, held his breath, and drank them all in one gulp.
His mouth was filled with the taste of blood. The thick smell of blood assailed his nostrils, and a feeling of nausea arose spontaneously. Gray resisted the urge to vomit. Even though it was his second time taking the blood, Gray still couldn't get used to drinking raw blood.
It wasn't that he hadn't thought of steaming the blood before eating it, but after these days of reading in the library, he already knew that the blood of a blood fiend could only be maximized when it was fresh and consumed raw.
The blood of the blood fiends in the castle must have been preserved using some kind of artifact to keep it as fresh as possible.
As the blood slid down his throat into his stomach, Gray immediately felt the same as when he'd taken the blood of the blood fiends before, but there were also different changes.
A wave of heat rose from his stomach, but it was different from the last time. It wasn't too hot, and spread from his stomach to his entire body, making his whole body feel comfortably warm.
At the same time, a feeling of limp numbness appeared all over his body. This feeling only appeared when he was training, but it was more intense than when he was training.
