2 example:
if you have 1 pool,and want to play 2nd vilein in same vampire,you need to pay pool first,or first gain and then pay?
same for:The Eternals of Sirius,you first gain 5 pool and then pay 4?
Villein
[KoT:U/A2/B2, HttB:PGar2/PKia2/PSal2/PSam2, SP:DoF3/PoS4, 25th:5]
Cardtype: Master
Trifle.
Put this card on a vampire you control who has any amount of blood and move 2 to 5 blood from that vampire to your pool. Minion Tap costs you 1 additional pool. Villein costs 1 additional pool to play on this vampire.
The Eternals of Sirius
[LotN:U]
Cardtype: Master
Cost: 4 pool
Master.
Gain 5 pool if you have a ready Follower of Set, or move 5 blood from the blood bank to a Follower of Set with a capacity above 8 in your uncontrolled region.

You pay the cost of the card and gain the pool at the same time. You don't die.

One would think that the cost of the card is paid for it to have any effect, but that doesn't seem to be the ruling. So cost and resolution happen at the same time?

For master cards, yes.
This can be different for some other types of cards, for instance action cards and strike cards.
