“Wake up you idiot master, you’ll make me wait until when.” (Layla)
I am woken up by an ice hammer that hit me from top to bottom, destroying the bed I was lying on.
“…” (I)
“How long are you going to sleep like this?” (Layla)
“I’m not even that lazy…” (Layla)
When I look I see the ice hammer being thrown aside and I see a Fairy with strange rainbow-colored wings and four arms looking at me trying to lecture me with an angry face. 𝐞𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥．𝗰𝐨𝗺
“You little Devil…” (I)
I get up and grab this evil Fairy before she has time to react, holding her tightly so she doesn’t escape.
“Let go of me, lazy, idiotic master…” (Layla)
“If you say anything else, you’ll spend two months cleaning the bathrooms at the mansion.” (I)
“…” (Layla)
The moment I talked about the cleaning work she becomes quiet and starts to look the other way, as usual, she changes her attitude very easily.
“Why do you have to wake me up so violently? If I were a normal person this ice hammer would have turned me into a meat slurry.” (I)
“It’s your fault for resting more than three months, every time I want to sleep people complain to me, so why can only you be so lazy?” (Layla)
“Three months???” (I)
I looked around and noticed many Fairies and Spirits flying around me that I didn’t notice before as I was concentrating on Layla, these Fairies were happy and were saying my name while partying.
I try to calm down and think about what is happening, I collect my thoughts as I remember about the conversation with the Goddess Selene, I also remember the strange dream I had and waking up early just to go back to sleep.
“How long have I been sleeping?” (I)
“You spent three months inside a compacted cocoon of energy and Aura, after coming out of the cocoon you slept for another five days.” (Layla)
“…” (I)
“(This time I stayed in a cocoon? Also why was the evolution so long this time?)” (I)
I was confused as to why this evolution was so different from the others, but I figured it was due to the interference of the Goddess Selene.
“Master!!!!” (Alice)
While I was busy with my thoughts I am hugged from the side by Alice who starts crying hugging me as if I was a child, this was the first time I saw her act like that and I was very surprised, because of that I released the little Demon that flew away hello window.
“Calm down Alice, no need to cry…” (I)
“…” (Alice)
“Glad to see the master awake, allow me to help with Alice until you can get some clothes on.” (Freya)
“Come on Alice, let the master get dressed and you can talk to him later, come with me to wipe that crying face, all right?” (Freya)
“Alright…” (Alice)
As Freya ran her hand over Alice’s head convincing her to let go of me before taking her out of my room I looked down noticing that I’m completely naked.
I hurriedly close my bedroom door until I’m done getting dressed, but before I go to a full-length mirror to see the changes in my body after this evolution.
“But what happened to me?” (I)
“This can only be a bad joke…” (I)
I look in the mirror seeing a person with smooth and silky brown skin, my hair was a brighter scarlet red and longer, my face lost the few masculine features I still had making it impossible to distinguish if I’m male or female.
Sigh
I almost started to cry thinking that the Goddess Selene had turned me into a woman, but when I looked down my good friend was still there causing a great weight to come out of my heart.
My body was in shape, and it was very beautiful if I may say so myself, my eyes are still the same gold and purple colors, but they were deeper and there seemed to be a glow inside them that I couldn’t make out.
The strangest was the two horns on my head about 12 centimeters in size and curved upwards, these horns seemed to be made of black crystal with multicolored sparkles within this darkness, very reminiscent of Nix’s scales.
“…” (I)
Also, I saw in the mirror something I was trying to ignore, but I couldn’t help but see it, it was a tail made of crystal dangling from my back with a tip similar to a short sword.
When I brought my hands to my face, ashamed of my own appearance, I realized that even my nails had turned to black crystals.
The worst I only noticed last, my height hasn’t changed at all, this is the second evolution where my height hasn’t changed, I feel my heart breaking as I keep looking at my body and I notice that I have some scales on my arms, legs, and neck, the tattoos that I had all over my body still remain and seem to be inside the crystal scales that are the same as Nix’s, in addition, the colored sparkles inside the crystal scales seem to flow through the lines of the tattoo going from one scale to another, that was something fascinating to see if I weren’t so sad about my looks and height.
“Why are you crying master, your appearance is so beautiful and cute.” (Layla)
“Cute…” (I)
I drop to my knees like someone slashed a sword through my heart when Layla called me cute, that damn Fairy came back just to give me that blow to the heart.
After a few minutes of high pity with Layla stroking my head in an attempt to comfort me, I stand up and start getting ready.
After I’m done I check my notifications before looking at my status, I skip the notifications that talk about synthesis skills and look at the new titles I got.
Ding!
<[ You have acquired the following titles:
[ Vampire Prince ]
[ Guardian of Shadows ] ]>
I can understand the title of Vampire Prince, but I don’t understand this title of Guardian of Shadows so I tried to identify that title.
<[ Title identification result:
[ Guardian of Shadows ]:
This title was created when the owner made a great achievement defending something of great importance more than once without exposing his identity, his power, and destroying all clues of what he did without claiming any credit for that feat.
It is made:
Concealment skills are twice as strong.
]>
So I got this title for defending the continent from extremist Demons, but that was just one time, the title makes it seem like I did something similar a second time, is it referring to when Farus was defeated?
Toc Toc Toc
“Master, are you okay?” (Freya)
“I’m fine, Freya.” (I)
Maybe I took too long checking the changes in my body and the notifications weren’t that many, most of the notifications were about the syntheses I did while sleeping so I skipped them all, the only different notifications were these titles I got.
But because of my delay, Freya came to see if I was ok, I tell her that I’m leaving and I finish getting ready with sadness to see that my clothes still fit me, this just confirms that I haven’t grown anything.
Sigh
“I’m leaving, did you tell the others I woke up?” (I)
“Yes, I asked the Fairies to do this, so soon everyone will be here.” (Freya)
I open the bedroom door and see Freya waiting by the door alone, I look around and I don’t see Alice.
“If you’re looking for Alice, I left her with Caryna while she calms down.” (Freya)
“I’ve never seen her like this before.” (I)
“You worried everyone, your plan was too risky and we all knew you would be very hurt, but Alice never participated in a true life and death battle so she didn’t expect to find you in a dying state when you were brought in. to the Dungeon after fighting King Makari.” (Freya)
“The poor thing cried a lot that day, you must understand that everything you did for her did not go unnoticed, she sees you as a father figure who is always taking care of her.” (Freya)
“Seeing you inside the cocoon and then sleeping without waking up was also difficult for everyone.” (Freya)
“I didn’t think she was so attached to me, I had very few conversations with her, the things I did for her were also very simple.” (I)
“They may be simple for you, but for her, they were things that changed her life forever.” (Freya)
“You have to understand that Alice was a commoner, she never had much schooling in her life, besides she was a slave when the master met her, her fate was not a grievous thing at the time.” (Freya)
“Then in the darkest moment of her life, the master appears who gives her the opportunity to become a Vampire gaining an immortal life expectancy, frees her from slavery, gives her a decent and honest job, allows her to learn magic, allows her to training martial arts and Aura, allows her to study something that normally only wealthy and noble merchants are entitled to, etc.” (Freya)
“If you say everything together it makes it seem like a lot, besides most of these things weren’t me, for example, it was Irina who transformed her.” (I)
Sigh
“Master, that day we all saw you calling Irina and Irius to another place to talk, right after Irina turned Alice and Irius turned Nolan, it wasn’t hard to see that it was your idea.” (Freya)
“All the other things were your ideas too, you insisted on their studies and allowed them to learn whatever they wanted, as well as giving them honest work, clothes, food, and a house.” (Freya)
“You also never asked for anything in return other than their loyalty, for Alice it was like giving them a new life without asking for anything in return.” (Freya)
“…” (I)
“If you look into her eyes you should see that there is no longer any darkness inside, that’s thanks to you.” (Freya)
cough cough
“I think we’d better go downstairs as soon as the others are waiting for us.” (I)
Sigh
“You don’t know how to be honest with yourself…” (Freya)
Receiving so many compliments like this is making me feel embarrassed, better get off the subject before I’m too embarrassed to leave the room, I’ll also ignore what Freya said in a low voice last.
