Lisa stood up, hands on the table. "Um, could you please explain why you want me to succeed you as head of the vampires?" Lisa asked.

Irene paused and looked up at Lisa. "I haven't even finished eating dessert yet...whatever, it's fine." Irene puts down the fork.

"Lalisa, what are vampires to you?" Irene asked.

Lisa looked at her confused. "Eh? Um..immortals who suck blood?"

Irene nodded and picked up her fork. "That's right, vampires are just "Monsters who suck blood"." she nodded, as she took a bite of her dessert. "Generally when someone thinks about vampires, bloodsucking is the first thing that comes to mind."

"But vampires, if we go back to the vampire's roots, there wasn't much blood sucking." Irene said. "The vampires of the past, and the vampires of the present, the is the difference between them." she lifted her fork as she explained. "I fear that to some extent the image of the vampire has been taken over by the image humans have of vampires." she pointed at Lisa. "You become the vampire you picture."

She shrugged. "The current state of "immortal" and "bloodsucker" is because of that bad image."

Lisa nodded and sat back down. "I see, but I don't get what that has to do with me..."

Irene smiled. "We have both made someone immortal through love. And so, in the future vampires with a new concept might appear." she pointed at Lisa. "To put it simply, vampires and those related to them will become "The elderly"."

"Is it healthy for the elderly to remain as a permanent chief?" she raised an eyebrow.

"I can understand up to here, but I still don't get why it has to be me. There's other youngins" Lisa reasoned.

Irene chuckled. "That's because," she turned to look at Rosie. "Roseanne. You are the reason."

The girls eyes widen. "Ehhh? Me?!" Rosie asked surprised.

"The head. of the vampires must be with "someone they love" that's the rule." Irene said.

Lisa felt worried now.

"First I've heard that." Jessi said.

"She just made it up." Suga added.

"Hah?" Lisa turned to look at them, then turned to face Irene who looked excited. "I just decided now."

"Can I just leave now!?" Lisa said annoyed at these people.

"Just kidding, that's the reason why I've been able to do the job of head for so long, because I have Seulgi." Irene said.

"Even for a vampire, it's impossible to handle the job alone forever." she leaned back in her chair as she looked at Lisa. "You'd get tried of it."

"Therefore I think this job is best suited for two people who have sworn themselves to each other for eternity." Irene nodded.

Lisa and Rosie looked at each other. "Lili..." Rosie mumbled. "Rosie..." Lisa whispered.

"We have so much time we come to hate it, feel free to take our time in answering." Irene shrugged.

"You are already a member of the tea party, a full fledged vampire." she grinned. "You don't need that youngsters advice"

Jungkook said nothing as Lisa stood up and turned to look at Jungkook, worried. "Eh? Then Jungkook..."

Jungkook nodded as he crossed his arms. "Ya, from today on I won't be giving you any more guidance. I never thought you would get called to the tea party so soon."
