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

Chapter 20: The Scarlet Blood Region

The Scarlet Blood Region was known as the resting place for the first great demonic clan of vampires. Despite being situated in a place where a human city used to exist its architecture style left zero traces of mankind. The human ruins that shouldve been here had all been used up for materials or just basically thrown away. Even though only 30 years had passed the transformation of the former human cities was so complete that it was as if several centuries had already passed since then.

The concise and symmetrical western-style buildings with giant pillars that seemed to rise out from the ground. Its color palette was a contrasting mix of light and darkness. The characteristics created a natural sense of elegance grandeur and rich romanticism in the sight of the viewer.

A clear hue of scarlet replaced the normal pale blue of the skies. When observed from afar it would resemble a floating bloody-colored fortress seemingly inharmonious with the blue skies surrounding it.

Humanoid-shaped beings moved about in the citys streets and alleys. If it werent for the absurdly fair skin of the pedestrians or their unconventional fashion sense one would perhaps be unable to perceive any difference compared to the human cities.

At this moment in a castle situated in the capital of the Scarlet Blood Region where the imperial court laid.

The external walls of the palace castle were painted and interweaved with blood-red and greyish-black colors it would emulate the feeling of despair. While around it a series of black and thorny fences were surrounding the imperial courtyard and its interior almost like a group of vigilant soldiers. The massive size of the castle paired with its ice-cold material and color palette emanated a seemingly bleak atmosphere as a trace of terror could be felt to the point that one would start to revere it.

However the lanterns that were within its colored glasses radiated a warm and gentle radiance. They landed on the fluffy carpets that were on the cold stone bricks and the cherry-colored wallpaper decorated around the castle walls it would wipe out the gloomy and cold atmosphere that permeated the castle. What took its place would be the somewhat along the lines of the proverbial innocent and adorable atmosphere of a maiden yearning for love.

The outcome of this was a huge disparity within the internal and exterior of the city as they gave out a strong sense of dissonance. Those who werent in the loop may even think that they were in a game that the computer had retrieved the wrong levels settings.

Within the great halls of the castle there was a blood-red and greyish-black throne made of precious stones that were shaped in a sharp claw. A silver-haired petite girl was elegantly sitting on it in a graceful manner while graciously carrying a porcelain teacup adorned with gold stripes. Her composed complexion slightly narrowed eyes and exquisite body would resemble a cute hamster that was in the middle of deep sleep.

However only the people who truly knew who she was would deem that she was only harmless on the surface.

If someone were to ask me now whether there would be a secret art that could shove the soul of an extremely wicked demon king into the body of a loli I would definitely say that it exists. This was Ji Bais appraisal of her.

This appraisal was something he gave during his break time after going through lessons such as the Nobilitys Etiquette Raising a lady Ethnic customs and Vampires Friendship Characteristics every day; He would bury his head into his blanket as he would sobbingly mutter them out making doubly sure that his voice was soft.

However that was the new normal for him. Cursing before he slept was originally in Ji Bais to-do list every day. He would feel unwell all over if he was to skip this routine for one day. If he was to make a necklace from the obscene words he had used on Lilias it would be enough to revolve the equator 3 times.

Nevertheless horses can stumble just as humans can make mistakes. There are times where Ji Bai the unparalleled actor would be found with a loose lip. He had cursed while he was happy in his own world sadly Lilias heard it.

Spitting out vulgar and disgusting words from your mouth now? Bai Ji1? So… You have treated the teachings we administered every day as hot air and just brushed it off? No worries~ Your mother is a very patient woman~ In order to eradicate your barbaric character and flaws I will be giving you more lessons henceforth~ Liliass face had an innocent childlike smile while her puerile loli voice had a therapeutic effect to it.

Wa- Wait. Hold on a moment! The only free time I currently have left is my mealtime and sleep time. How are you going to add these lessons in?

Shouldnt it be obvious? By reducing your sleep time of course~ Sleeping a few hours less wouldnt harm a vampires health anyways~

Are you a demon?!

Oh my~ Youre actually using such a nasty word like demon to slander your own mother. It seems like the number of lessons you have scheduled still arent enough~ How about we remove your sleep time then? That way you wouldnt have the time to shout these obscene words that you love so much even if you want to~

You!… Uwa!~ Ding ding ding K.O.

The interaction above roughly summarized the everyday life of Ji Bai and Lilias. From that day on he definitely had one more person other than his parents that he feared on this Earth. However he would definitely refute this claim.

You appear to have some doubts~ Lilias who was on her throne indifferently took a sip of her red tea. The corners of her mouth formed an indescribable smile as she spoke to the maid who was attending to her.

In response to her Majestys words this lowly servant wouldnt dare The quiet servant who was silently attending to Lilias had heard Lilias talking to her and was immediately startled like a frightened bunny.

Who wouldnt understand the rationale that being with a king was just like being with a tiger? Whats more the person in front of her was a temperamental and evil dragon. The maid didnt dare to show the slightest degree of neglect.

Well theres no harm in saying it. Im not a demon anyways what are you so afraid of? Lilias drew out a smile as she placed her teacup to the side.

When you answered the castle earlier your eyes were drifting non-stop around the interior decorations~ Do you have any questions?

This lowly servant knows her mistake now! This lowly servant ought not to look around I deserve death

Haah~ Lilias slowly heaved a sigh as she looked at the maid who was repeatedly lowering her head and apologizing. One could clearly see that she was so frightened that she was about to kneel down and cry.

Youre not as interesting as Bai Ji. As I thought my daughter is the best~

Eh? …Bai Ji? Do you mean your royal highness Bai Ji? The maid was in a daze as she subconsciously asked.

Yes~ These human-type decorations were what she suggested that I should put up. She revealed a faint smile as she seemingly thought of something.

…But your lowly servant here seemed to overhear that the Royal Highness Bai Ji had apparently moved out recently. Are you not worried about her? The chancellors are apparently very worried about this Under the spurring of her own budding curiosity the maid opened her mouth and asked.

Hey~ I can almost see the bottom of the cup.

Oh! The maid immediately replenished the red tea inside Liliass cup.

Oh well~ Its just a small childs tantrum. Theres nothing to be concerned about. However speaking of which I am indeed a bit unaccustomed to sleeping without that pillow anymore~ However Lilias narrowed her eyes. She seems to be a bit too naive to believe that she can escape from my palm this easily. Huhu I have to choose a good time to crush her delusions to pieces it should finally make her understand her place and identity.

Shes quite a special existence. After turning into a vampire she can still remain in her former human body. This is something that even I had not anticipated~ Lilias gave a meaningful smile.

The reason why she could barely keep her human form was probably because of the knights creed she held on to alongside with her sense of belonging as a human.

So what if your conviction is firm? There will definitely be a day

Lilias gazed beyond the window as she slightly raised the corner of her lips.
