Haaa! A ferocious gale violently blew towards Bai Jis face. As a spate of powerlessness overtook her entire body she subconsciously squatted down and put her hands over her head. She no longer had any room to parry or block the attack.
Whoosh! Crack! After the sounds of shattering bones and flesh followed by an object falling to the ground resounded everything went calm.
Hmm? Puzzled that the sensation of pain had yet to arrive after a long time Bai Ji curiously opened her beautiful eyes. On the floor not too far away from her there laid two perfectly sliced troll cakes. As she surveyed the scene Bai Ji spotted a young girl. Her silvery-grey hair like 3000 streams of rivers poured down in torrents from the girls head as it let out a dim luster under the moonlight.
The owner of the long hair who possessed a ponytail on the side was meticulously wiping blood off of the fang-shaped scimitar she held in her hand. She then moved her eyes upwards upon sensing Bai Jis gaze.
Damn it why did this person have to be the one to save me? Couldnt it be someone else instead?! Bai Ji was momentarily depressed.
After seeing the person who arrived Bai Jis extremely reluctant eyes turned into those of a dead fish. She then gradually shifted her eyes towards the supple spot between Lins abdomen and collarbone.
Tch excess fat thats not at the least bit useful! A burden that does nothing but increase your weight! I bet when youre asleep youre gasping for breath because its pressing down on you. Hmph~!
Lin didnt pay any heed towards Bai Jis extremely impolite action. After Lins gaze stopped on the Goutermera standing upright beside Bai Ji she slowly closed the short distance between themselves.
What are you doing here? Dont think that Ill be grateful to you just because you saved me! I never asked you to save me in the first place! Bai Ji stared at Lin who was currently staring intently at her as she slowly approached. Wrapping her arms around her chest she drew back the corners of her lips to reveal a pair of sharp tiny canine teeth as a show of force.
Lin walked forward until she was in front of Bai Ji while focusing her eyes onto her face. After a moment she placed her wrist on her lower abdomen and solemnly bent her body saluting the dazed Bai Ji.
This lowly self pays her respect to your royal highness the princess. As if she was a chancellor meeting a king Lins hands caressed her lower abdomen and knelt down on a knee. Her pious and devout gaze was placed at the level where Bai Jis feet were with no intention to move past that in the slightest.
The matter happened so suddenly. In lieu of Lins shocking demonstration Bai Jis only response was a face filled with cluelessness.
Hey y-you. What are you up to?
Although Lin hasnt returned to her hometown for a long time the pride she carried as a vampire still remained. As the rulers subject how could I possibly not pay my respect when meeting the daughter of heaven? Lins indifferent tone was filled with seriousness.
Im not your princess. Im a human and not your vampire princess by any means! Needless to say the latter part of that sentence was something that Bai Ji would definitely not say out loud. This was the biggest secret that she possessed after all.
Its unlikely that Im wrong. The soul devourerGoutermara is a sacred object that only vampires directly related to the royal family are able to use. Its unlikely for Lin to mistake that. Lins tone carried an extreme sense of certainty in it.
Merely its been a long time since Lin has returned home and is now unaware of the situation in her hometown. This lowly self wonders if your highness is the daughter of Her Majesty Lasombra Lilias?
Who!? Who is her daughter!? That damnable shameless woman of a vampire! Dont involve me with her alright? Im unable to coexist under the same sky with that little whore! Bai Jis feathers were instantly ruffled. While leaning on her scythe her emotion fluctuated abnormally as she tried her best to deny her relationship with Lilias. Even the ahoge on her head stood up in anger.
??? Lin was shocked. It was actually the first time she saw someone unleash a torrent of abuse at the scarlet empress whose lofty existence brought terror to every race.
If it was someone else demeaning her queen like so Lin wouldnt have said another word; she would have directly gone up to them and cut their necks. However since the other party was the royal princess the vampire who was going to be the scarlet queen in the future To put it simply this was a personal dispute between the mother and daughter pair she wasnt going to meddle in it.
This was perfectly reasonable now that she thought about it. The only person with the guts and qualifications to insult the queen was the princess right? She was truly accurate to guess that they were mother and daughter.
Your highness although I ought to not interject in personal matters between you and the queen this lowly self still wishes to advise you that the queen is your mother in the end and you shouldnt
Alright! Alright! I understand~! Theres no need for you to say it anymore Bai Ji concededly interrupted Lins advice. She then rubbed her forehead as a headache settled into her head.
Why didnt I realize how naggy this little vampire was the first time we met?
Bai Ji knelt down on the ground powerlessly her puny stature pitiful and helpless.
I must really have run out of luck seriously.
Disregarding the fact that I starved for three days and three nights I still had to work overtime for my ideological enemy and even take the risk of my illness erupting anytime! Its too much! Even a death row inmate gets to die with a full stomach! I already entered the battlefield without anything to eat or drink and I still have to get nagged at by someone else. Uhuhu~
Your highness? Lin tilted her head as she continued to kneel on one knee. Just when she wanted to say something an untimely boorish voice interrupted her.
Hey Lin why did you fly off so quickly? While you can fly the rest of us dont Oh? Isnt this? Jogging up to the city gate tower Huo Lei slightly froze. His gaze swept past the two vampire girls who were squatting together doing something unknown.
Wheres Keer and LilSha? Lin narrowed her eyes as she looked at Huo Lei and his empty surroundings.
The both of them said that theyre afraid of me and that they wont be following me. Theyre moving together with Teacher Lin Tuo right now. Huo Lei puckered his lips in an aggrieved manner.
Has the siege been lifted in the area downwards of the South City Gate? Bai Ji questioned as she held onto her scythe. She was somewhat puzzled when she saw Huo Lei walk up to the city gate unscathed.
Lifted? That didnt happen though? Huo Lei drew back the corners of his mouth as he waved the spiked club that was dyed with green blood in his hand. I killed my way here.
Bai Ji and Lin sized Huo Lei up with a peculiar gaze.
Eh? What do you mean by that?
How did it feel beating your own clansman? Bai Ji unhurriedly asked after a moment of silence.
Oh. About that huh. Of course its
You traitor to the troll clan! Die! Before Huo Lei could finish responding a heavily injured troll foot soldier behind him counterattacked.
Behind you Huo Lei!
Huo Lei revealed a faint smile. He suddenly turned and jumped ferociously hammering his fists onto the troll foot soldiers skull. As a cracking sound of bricks breaking resounded the troll foot soldier smashed through the floor.
Following this Huo Lei maliciously snapped his fingers. With a stupefied face the troll foot soldier saw the bricks he shattered with his body weight begin to reassemble and started to fill the gap he made
Ahhhhh!!!
Regenerative Punch. Huo Lei clapped away the dust on his hands no longer caring about the troll foot soldier. He already died a tragic death earlier as the bottom half of his body got squashed to pieces. Where were we?
