And from a Blood Saint, too! He did not know a single Hunter, or Yharnamite for that matter, who would let such a chance pass them by unless they already knew that there was a downside to receiving that blood. This guy had no way of knowing that Adelicia's blood was just that little bit extra amazing that it would make all other blood bland and disappointing in comparison. Victor would certainly have jumped at the chance... [I]Foreigners,[/I] he thought, barely even registering the irony of him, who had only lived in Yharnam for a couple of years, considering another newcomer as such. [I]And only just received his first blood treatment... the craving probably hasn't set in yet. Rats. I can't bring Adelicia with us... I'll need to draw a vial or two from her, I guess, and save it for when they start to need blood. They're Hunters now; special or not, it's only a matter of time.[/I] “Okay,” he said, allowing himself to sound about as shocked as he was at the declination. “Let me know if you change your mind.” When he argued that they should probably do something to keep the sleeping Hunters safe from more outside intruders, Victor responded with a shrug and another cursory look around the room, as well as another glance into the back room with the patients. “We [I]could[/I] put something together, but we'll be barricading it behind us when we leave... so from the outside. It'll do more to keep anyone waking up inside than it'll keep danger out.” He scratched his chin thoughtfully. “The front door is intact, though. If we can find a key or something we might be able to just lock it behind us. And, unlike the stupid clods that run this clinic, [I]we'll[/I] light the bloody incense outside to keep beasts away.” While a single censer would not be a guaranteed way of keeping beasts away, it would at least make it rather unpleasant for them to be around... and if the door did not budge immediately when they tried to enter it would make them much more liable to give up immediately, just to get away from the incense. He also [I]thought[/I] it would work on Pthumerians, if any more of those showed up... but regular Yharnamites? Yeah, those guys from earlier definitely had to be killed.
