I don't want to be a dragon maid!

Shelley turned her head, glared at the monster, and said through gritted teeth.

"what?"

The monster was clearly still in shock. Several barriers appeared on the tree trunks on both sides, and a large number of ice spikes emerged from the barriers, colliding heavily like upper and lower teeth.

As for the monster on the other side, it was riddled with icicles and turned into a hedgehog, with large amounts of black blood gushing from its wounds.

Shelley slowly stood up from the ground, breathing softly, a mocking smile appearing on her pale face.

"You bastard, you're not an ordinary human, you're a magician!"

The monster's ashen face had lost all its previous arrogance, replaced only by fear.

"You guessed right!"

Shelley snapped her fingers, leaned against the tree root, and reached her hand inside her clothes.

"Even if you are a mage, so what? I am a blood servant! With your current strength, you can't kill me at all!"

The monster struggled desperately inside the ice spikes, roaring loudly.

"How dare you scheme against me like this! Once I get out of here, I'll torture you and then drain your blood..."

"Oh, thank you so much for reminding me! We need to nip it in the bud!"

Shelley sneered, took out the pale blue cross from her bosom, and gently tossed it at the monster.

The moment the pale blue cross touched the monster, it turned into icy blue flames that engulfed it. With a piercing scream, the ice spikes melted, and the monster collapsed to the ground, turning into a pile of ashes.

After Shelley confirmed that the other person was dead, she went forward and picked up the crucifix. However, she did not leave but leaned against the tree trunk, seemingly waiting for someone.

Sure enough, in less than thirty seconds, the long-skirted monster and the long-robed monster caught up. They looked at the smoldering ashes, and their eyes twitched slightly.

Within minutes, one of their companions had turned into a pile of ashes. In their eyes, this woman was clearly no ordinary person.

"Damn human, I'll kill you!"

The long-robed monster roared and charged forward. Shelley had no intention of dodging. She looked at the monster in front of her with a disdainful expression.

"Wait a minute! Jack was an idiot and got taken down instantly. Are you one too? This woman is clearly a high-level mage; she might have set up a trap nearby for us to fall into!"

The monster in the long dress quickly stopped the monster in the long robe. It looked at Shelley with an uncertain expression on its face.

"Wait a minute, let's see what tricks this human is up to!"

When Shelley heard the other person say that, she knew she had made the right bet.

There were traps, but they had already been used up, and Shelley's magic had been drained in order to activate the barrier, so she was now worse than an ordinary person.

The only thing she could rely on was the cross hidden in her chest, but how long that cross could withstand attacks remained an unknown.

Shelley has done everything she can; her only reason for not running away is to buy time.

Shelley had already left a series of marks behind him, so if the nun saw them, she could quickly lead the guards to come and provide support!

However, how long it will take is still unknown!

Shelley felt like she could faint if she closed her eyes even slightly, but she forced herself to stay upright and keep from collapsing.

Not just for ourselves, but also for those who have been arrested!

The two sides stood in a stalemate for about ten minutes. It was getting dark, and the monster was losing patience. The monster in the long dress looked up at the moon, her face full of anxiety.

"No! There's no time. Lord Herbert is about to wake up. We need to split up and attack this woman from different angles!"

The long-skirted monster directed the long-robed monster beside it, and the two immediately separated, leaning slightly forward and approaching Shelley from the left and right.

Shelley knew they were going to attack, but she was too weak to do anything and could only watch helplessly as they drew closer to her.

Is this the end?

A desperate thought popped into Shelley's mind.

The two monsters launched an attack, pouncing on Shelley like cheetahs.

Shelley gripped the cross to her chest, abruptly raising her head to look at the approaching monsters. She intended to use the cross to take down both monsters at the last moment.

"Ah! Ah!"

With two screams, the two monsters flew out like cannonballs, crashing into several tree trunks before finally coming to a stop.

"Who? Who is it?"

The long-skirted monster staggered to her feet and roared loudly.

Its chest was sunken in, and its upper body was covered in sticky fluid, as was the long-robed monster that was trying to get up.

They appear to have been hit by something.

The long-skirted monster shouted several times before a graceful figure emerged from the shadows into the moonlight.

It was a silver-haired girl dressed in a black and white maid outfit. Her right hand kept tossing and catching an apple. Her beautiful face looked like it was wearing an iron mask. Under the moonlight, it looked extremely hard and had no warmth at all.

Its pale golden eyes stared at the two monsters as if they were looking at two dead men.

"who are you?"

The long-skirted monster seemed to sense that the girl before her was no ordinary person. She slowly took a few steps back and asked again.

"Me? I'm just a maid who came to take your dog lives."

The silver-haired woman raised an eyebrow, opened her cherry-like lips, and slowly uttered those words.

Chapter Thirteen: Vampires Under the Moonlight

Noah was furious. She had been packing fruits and vegetables in the warehouse and had even planned out how to feed Lord Shelley.

Then they heard a loud bang outside the warehouse. Noah and the nun went out to see what had happened, and found a large hole in the wall and ice crystal fragments all over the ground.

Shelley was nowhere to be seen, but where she had been standing, a sentence formed of ice spikes appeared—Help.

More ice spikes stretched into the forest, seemingly reminding Noah and the nun of where they were headed...

The nun immediately went to find the nearby soldiers, while Noah followed the ice spikes into the forest and soon saw Shelley and the two deformed monsters.

Noah was in a very bad mood. Seeing the injured Shelley, she felt a pang of pain in her heart, like a baby cabbage that she had been raising for a long time being trampled on.

I... Pshaw! The woman I've set my sights on! You dare touch her?!

This is the sentence Noah most wanted to utter.

Moreover, just by smelling the stench of decaying corpses and blood emanating from these monsters, one could tell they had killed countless people.

Noah shows no mercy to this kind of person, whether it's him as a shut-in or her as a maid!

"Help?! Die!"

The long-skirted monster had no patience. It gathered its strength in its feet and pounced on Noah in a blur. In the blink of an eye, the distance between them was instantly closed.

"Humph!"

Noah snorted coldly, her golden eyes shining even brighter. She snapped her fingers, and the monster in the long dress instantly stopped in front of her.

Even though her claws were only centimeters away from Noah's golden eyes, she could not advance any further.

The long-skirted monster opened its mouth wide, and a bunch of bubbles rose from its body, enveloping it.

Seeing that things were not going well, the long-robed monster turned around and tried to escape, but a bunch of bubbles also appeared on its body, trapping it inside.

The small bubbles swelled into large bubbles, trapping them inside. The two monsters were thus trapped. When they opened their mouths, a torrent of bubbles rushed in, making it impossible for them to breathe.

"Bubble Cage, Apple Flavor! Hope you like it."

Noah lifted her skirt and bowed slightly, a smile slowly appearing on her face. A flash of murderous intent crossed her eyes, and she snapped her fingers again.

The two bubbles burst instantly, and the monster inside turned into a cloud of blood mist, which was blown away by the wind.

Noah slowly exhaled a breath of stale air. She looked at her palm. It was her first time killing someone, but she didn't feel any discomfort. On the contrary, she felt very relaxed.

I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing...

Noah looked at her palm, a hint of unease appearing in her eyes, but she quickly suppressed it and turned to check on Shelley.

He turned around and found Shelley with her eyes closed, leaning against a tree branch, motionless.

"Lord Shelley, are you alright?"

Noah panicked and rushed to Shelley to check on her condition.

The pulse is strong, and there is still breathing.

After confirming Shelley's safety, Noah breathed a sigh of relief. No longer maintaining the reserve of a maid, she plopped down on the haystack and began to slowly recover her depleted magic power.

Not far away, the torchlight flickered in the darkness, and the shouts and footsteps of the crowd grew closer. The nuns and guards arrived at the last moment.

Under the moonlight, in an unnamed ancient castle, a standing coffin is slowly pushed open.

A man dressed in black slowly walked out. His skin was pale, and his wide robe could not hide his thin body. He looked like someone who had just recovered from a serious illness.

Although his body looked sickly, he was extremely handsome, especially his crimson eyes, which seemed to have a captivating charm.

At that moment, two bats flew in through the window of the castle and hovered around the man in black.

"Huh? All the blood servants I've been embracing lately have died? So, were you killed by paladins? Archmages? Or those annoying priests?"

The man in black looked at the bat, closed his eyes, and muttered to himself,

"Hmm? Two people died, and it seems like they were killed by a maid..."

The man in black slowly opened his eyes, a smile appearing on his face.

"A magical maid? This maid is quite interesting. If I could embrace her, how much power would she unleash?"

The sound echoed throughout the castle, startling millions of bats, which rushed out of the castle and flew towards the city not far away.

Snow Eagle City, Hunter's Lodge.

At this moment, Noah was unaware that she was being watched; she was currently focused on answering the guards' questions.

She had said everything she could, but when asked about the fate of the three monsters, Noah simply said she didn't know. By the time she arrived, the scene had already turned out like this.

Noah still doesn't want too much attention, since she just wants to be a simple maid. She'd rather let her master take the credit.

Despite saying that, the guard still seemed a little confused, but he still let him leave.
