"Are you saying that these stupid savages are going to hurt me?"

Shirley said with a very obvious tone of mockery while also looking at the girl in front of her.

She looks very cute, but the smell on her...

Although it wasn’t very strong, Shirley could still sense the brilliant aura contained within the other person’s body, which was very similar to sunlight during the day.

Could this girl be a cleric?

"Ah... that’s not what I meant..."

It seems she rarely interacts with people with personalities similar to Shirley’s.

Anna was stunned for a moment and then said with an embarrassed expression.

At this moment, she probably considered Shirley a spoiled young woman...

Although she wasn’t wrong in thinking that way.

Shirley looked directly into Anna’s eyes, her aggressive gaze seemed to unveil all of the girl’s secrets.

Anna could only respond with a stiff smile, and an awkward silence fell between them.

Shirley had always been tolerant and compassionate towards beautiful things.

The appearance and temperament of the girl in front of her already met her aesthetic standards.

At this moment, she was seriously considering whether it would be better to turn this girl into a vampire or make her a blood slave.

But when it came to giving the first embrace to the girl in front of her, Shirley began to hesitate again.

The first embrace of a vampire is a sacred ceremony, especially for vampires of noble blood.

The number of first embraces and the candidates for those embraces need to be considered very carefully.

Because humans who undergo the "First Embrace Ceremony" are technically their own descendants.

It’s a bit unacceptable to have a next generation when they are only a little over two hundred years old.

But if you want to create the other part, I heard from my mother that a cleric's blood contains a harmful power, which means the blood is poisonous!

It doesn’t seem appropriate to create her...

"Your Highness Shirley, should we continue?"

Luna’s questioning voice snapped Shirley out of her own confusion.

"Oh, yes."

Shirley suddenly smiled and said to Anna, “Thank you very much for your help. May I ask your name?”

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

In response to Shirley’s sudden change in attitude, Anna was still a bit uncomfortable but unconsciously replied:“Anna.”

“Anna...”

Shirley whispered softly.

She stood on her tiptoes, brought her face close to Anna’s ear, and said softly, “I will remember this name...”

Then, Shirley quickly kissed Anna’s cheek and, at the same time, slid her fingers shamelessly over Anna’s waist.

“Ah... eh!?”

Anna, who couldn’t understand the situation, let out a surprised scream.

She took two steps back in panic, with a flush on her cheeks.

"Y-you, you, you, I-"

Anna, who had never been so close to anyone before, stuttered.

Even though they were both girls, such behavior was inappropriate!

Besides, she still felt the touch of the fingertips on her waist.

This behavior is abnormal, right? It’s clearly a provocation!

Or am I overthinking? The other person is clearly just a child, so she shouldn’t have such strange thoughts.

Is my mind so dirty?

God, please forgive me——

Anna fell into chaos for a moment.

Seeing the other person’s confused expression, Shirley was very pleased.

She quickly jumped back and returned to the carriage, saying, “Well then, let’s say goodbye...”

As if her prank had been successful, Shirley’s mood improved suddenly.

If there hadn’t been so many people around, she would have liked to have more fun...

However...

When Shirley returned to the carriage, she encountered Karina’s serious expression.

Her emerald-green eyes were fixed on Shirley.

“What’s wrong…”

Shirley said with a heavy conscience.

“No, it’s nothing...” Karina replied seriously. “Ah, by the way, I suddenly want to take a walk...”

Saying this, Karina stood up with an expressionless face and left the carriage as if nothing had happened.

However, Shirley could clearly see Karina’s tightly clenched hands, which made it obvious what she was about to do.

“Hey, did you forget?” Shirley grabbed Karina, pulled her aside, and sat down.

“Forget, what are you talking about? I just want to take a walk.”

At this moment, Karina displayed a very "gentle" expression.

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble..."

Shirley hugged Karina from behind as if persuading a child, with both hands...

"Hmph--"

Karina made a sound of dissatisfaction.

"I’m not going to forgive you so easily!"

With that, Karina struggled to free herself from Shirley’s arms, grabbed Shirley’s wrists firmly, and pressed her into the seat...

.....

On the other side, Delia gradually regained consciousness.

She had forgotten a bit when she fell asleep.

In her memory, she should have been playing with her friends.

The weakness coming from her body made her very uncomfortable.

When she opened her eyes, the scene in front of her was almost too dilapidated to comprehend.

Apart from the tattered and dirty blanket, Delia couldn’t wait to get up and open the window to breathe the fresh air outside.

Because the stench coming from the air almost made her suffocate.

Why am I in this place?

The fear caused by this question almost made her fall to the ground.

Struggling to run to the ruined wooden door, Delia held her breath and opened it.

The blinding sunlight hit her, causing her to temporarily lose her vision.

She extended her hand and rubbed her eyes.

When her vision returned, the sight almost made her sick.

Trash exuding a foul smell was piled everywhere.

People in tattered clothes had gaunt faces and their bodies were covered in dirt.

Feeling her stomach churn, Delia leaned against the wall and vomited.

She unconsciously touched her cheek, only to find a layer of black substance on her hand, which seemed to have been deliberately smeared to cover her face.

But...

Why is this happening!?

Could it be...

Kidnapped!?

An extremely unfamiliar word came to her mind, a word she never thought she would experience personally.

Where is Her Majesty Shirley?

Where is Lady Luna?

I don’t know where my friends went...

She is the only one here, and a group of ugly "monsters"...

I can’t find anyone to trust...

Fear and panic quickly sprouted in her heart, making her hide her face and sob.

"Are you awake?"

A slightly hoarse voice came.

“Don’t worry, I saved you. Although it’s a bit messy here, it’s definitely safe…”

The other’s words instantly made Delia stop crying.

Under the protection of her hands, she widened her eyes, and even her red eyes stood out.

It was you who brought me to this hell...
