After Taken as a Prisoner of War, the Vampire Queen Turned Me Into a Vampire and Made Me Her Daughter

Chapter 17: The Chivalric Order of The Moon

Ji Bai stroked his chin while his gaze continued to wander between the man and woman who were currently bickering with each other. Ji Bai was somewhat puzzled about the relationship the two of them had.

They claimed they were allies yet at the same time it didnt appear to be the case. With this being said he couldnt say that the two of them had no connection to each other either.

So what exactly is your purpose for coming here? If you arent going to come clean then Ill have you suffer some physical pain.

Researching and studying how to dissect demons? If underground societies were dumb enough to reveal their unsavory backgrounds as soon as they saw a stranger wouldnt they be gassed once the demons follow their tracks? Just a bit of scrutiny was needed to unravel this clumsy lie apart.

The only thing that was worth commending was the mans fairly average acting skills; Even if it was only a split second it still made Ji Bai actually believe the words from this grandson!

No no no Lets talk it out nicely alright youngster? A gentleman uses his mouth not his fist right? Were all civilized people here! As the saying goes The current expression of the middle-aged man was as frightened as he could be. Ji Bai could only recall what happened a few moments ago he remembered how he thought this little wimp was actually fathomless and mysterious Ji Bai had the impulse to slap himself in the face.

As he looked at the unimpressionable and glib man covered in dirt Ji Bai silently withdrew a dagger from his back. Its hilt embellished with a silver wolf he pointed it towards the man and made quite a few slashing gestures. Under the blazing sun the sword blade reflected its rays and released a shiny threatening and dazzling radiance.

Hi-hiiii!! A-Are you for real! L-Little guy p-please put that toy away first. This uncles heart isnt doing too well

As his disgraceful tone on the verge of distortion rang out within the corner the stern lady observing on the side couldnt bear to watch any further. She covered her face and tilted her head in a manner that seemed to suggest she wanted to cut all ties with him.

You have to understand that Im the type of person who gets impatient quite easily Ji Bai narrowed his eyes.

Heh! Anxious to get into the main topic huh? Good pull me up first! The man looked towards Ji Bai with hope in his eyes as he stretched out his hand.

Get up yourself. Youre a big man with a complete set of limbs right? Before Ji Bai could speak the woman on the side furrowed her eyebrows and quickly berated him.

A-Alright. Hah you dont have to be that fierce at me Yi Yi The middle-aged man sighed with a teasing voice as he strenuously steadied his body to stand up.

Do you believe that I wont send you to the extreme ends of the world if you call me that again? The woman coldly said as she leaned against the wall.

After hearing that the middle-aged man trembled and no longer dared to tease her again.

Cough cough. Thats right I havent introduced myself yet. My names Lin Tuo and this woman here is called Lan Yi. Its nice to meet you youngster. Lin Tuo was still covered in dirt while he squeezed a smile. He then stretched his hand out toward Ji Bai.

Hmm Ji Bai looked at the middle-aged man who said his name was Lin Tuo with disdain. As he had zero intentions of shaking hands with the other party Lin Tuo could only awkwardly retract his hand. (Editor Woofs Note: Author hath predicted Coronavirus!)

Youngster. I think you greatly misunderstood me. In truth What happened just now were a part of my plan

Are the eighteen rolls you did on the ground earlier a part of your plans as well?

Cough! Cough! This is basically the heart getting what it desires! How is doing the things that one desires not part of the plan?! The middle-aged man began to righteously explain. It was clear that he had been put on the spot by Ji Bais words.

Finish it up just get to the main point already. The girl at the wall coldly reminded him.

Oh alright Well then youngster I would like to congratulate you on passing our test. As soon as he finished these words the face of the middle-aged man turned solemn. The current demeanor that he displayed made Ji Bai feel as if the person who was recently rolling around on the ground was a hallucination.

A test? Ji Bai slightly knitted his eyebrow. He turned his gaze towards Lan Yi on the side; She was looking at himself at the moment with traces of praise and approval within her eyes.

What do you mean?

Hmm Its like this. Our original purpose was to take away this cat-eared girl. But the purpose for this wasnt even near to what I described earlier What I mean to say is rather than take her away I believe the term rescuing her is more appropriate.

As Ji Bai saw how honorable and solemn Lin Tuo was as he said these words Ji Bai slightly creased his brows. He then sized up the two people in front of him. His face turned even more astonished after he confirmed that there was indeed no demonic aura coming out from the both of them.

Arent both of you humans?

It is as you see. We are. Lin Tuo answered candidly.

Ji Bais expression was turning stranger by the second. Then why did you even think of rescuing this demon? If you botch it up theres a chance you might be regarded as mankinds enemy everywhere.

Youngster I would like to ask you the same question why did you rescue this catgirl when you clearly know the aftermath of your actions? If I didnt guess wrong you were the one that stabilized this catgirls injury did you not? Lin Tuos smile looked genuine as he glanced at the handkerchief on the catgirls ankle.

Theres only one answer to what you did. You were unwilling to lay your hands on such an innocent and harmless demon. It may even be more apt to say that you harbored feelings of pity for them. This was just a test I made earlier. It was to see whether you would look on quietly if someone were to prosecute a demon that was friendly to mankind.

Oh? What are you trying to say here? Ji Bai narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lin Tuo the man was currently speaking with certainty and fervor.

The point that I wanted to make was that theres no need to feel at a loss! Youngster your taking pity for the weak and young is a virtue and the face of mankind! Its the embodiment of a knights spirit! After saying these words Lin Tuo opened his arms in an exaggerated manner.

Ol man does your family know you have chuunibyou?

Coug-cough!! Sorry I got too carried away at the moment. Lin Tuo was once again placed in a spot by Ji Bai.

And did you just say a knights spirit? Are you trying to make fun of my lack of knowledge? There is no clause about protecting demons in the knights code; Instead there are these clauses about how its a serious crime to harbor demons and betray mankind. Ji Bai was very suspicious of the unreliable-looking middle-aged man he felt that the latter was currently trying to scam himself.

Youngster other than the knights creed that every knight must follow dont forget that every Chivalry Order can also have their own spiritual creed.

Having mercy on the weak and young whilst protecting the innocent! This is the objective of The Chivalric Order of The Moon. I wonder if youre interested in learning more?
