The male supporting character was actually myself.

The male vampire rolled over and got up from the ground, his eyes filled with a mixture of fear and anger as he glared at the meddlesome guy who had suddenly appeared. He wanted to fight back, but then he thought better of it and didn't dare.

This kid is a subordinate of Chief Anvilatuze, and even his own chief has to give him some face.

He assessed his position within the clan and, not believing that the elders would protect him if things escalated, glared angrily at Edmund and, ignoring his companions, ran away.

Edmund fought with other vampires for the first time. After calming down, he turned to look at the little girl who was still lying on the ground groaning.

Blood gushed from the side of her neck, her face turned pale, and her voice grew weaker and weaker; she was clearly on the verge of death.

"Help, help me..." Chloe trembled all over, her small hands gripping his trouser leg tightly as she pleaded, "Sir, please help me!"

He saw those grey eyes and suddenly remembered his younger sister, who had eyes that resembled hers. Edmund's heart was touched. He struggled to suppress his bloodlust, picked up the thin, short flower girl, and prepared to take her to Mr. Philip.

The adults are so kind, they would never stand by and watch someone die!

[Mission: Transform Chloe into a vampire. Reward: One-time use C-rank item.]

Just as the protagonist Edmund made up his mind to save the flower girl's life, the main system issued a mission.

Oh dear, it was bound to happen!

However, this transformation...

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow and appeared beside Edmund in a flash, asking with concern, "What happened?"

"My lord?!" Edmund was both surprised and delighted.

I was surprised to find an adult here; I was overjoyed that the little flower girl was saved!

They were so far from the manor that he wasn't even sure if he could get her back in time. Fortunately, the adult appeared in time, and he suddenly felt at ease.

"I remembered I had some things to take care of. I had just gotten nearby when I heard someone shouting for help and I wanted to come and see what was going on?"

Jiang Chen casually remarked, then pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it over, "Band her up first, otherwise she'll bleed to death."

Edmund briefly recounted what had happened while bandaging the wound, then pleaded, "My lord, I've been on the battlefield and seen my comrades suffer such severe injuries. She certainly won't survive. If you could transform her..."

“I’m sorry, Edmund, but I don’t think it would be a good thing for her to become a vampire.”

"But sir, she'll die soon if she doesn't turn into a vampire!" Edmund held the little girl in his arms, a feeling of reluctance and sadness welling up in his heart. "It's all my fault. If I had come sooner, perhaps she could have been saved."

Jiang Chen bent down and patted his shoulder to comfort him, saying, "It has nothing to do with you. You were the one trying to save her life."

The culprits were the vampires who hurt her; they were the only ones to blame.

Edmund, I understand your thinking. But she's far too young; I don't recommend turning her into a vampire.

"Help, help me..." Chloe could clearly feel her life slipping away; she didn't want to die.

Desperate to live, she gripped Edmund's wrist tightly and pleaded, "Save me! Please, save me!"

Edmund looked up at Jiang Chen with sorrowful eyes, his voice trembling with emotion, "My lord, please have mercy!"

“This isn’t a good idea, Edmund.” Jiang Chen shook his head and sighed, then turned to Chloe and asked, “Do you want to live or die?”

Grasping at this last straw, Chloe replied, her voice trembling with tears, "I want to live, please save me!"

"Very well, I can grant your wish. Your carotid artery has been severed, you're bleeding almost out, the doctors can't save your life, death has your throat, and it's about to take you to your death."

"And I can give you a completely new life, allowing you to enter an unimaginable world. Are you willing to make that change?"

"I...I'm willing..."

"You no longer need to worry about the passage of time, nor fear illness or death, but you will pay a price. From the moment you are given a new life, you will never be able to touch the sunlight again. You will spend your life wandering in the darkness, living on blood, just like the guy who played with your life in the palm of his hand and sent you to death."

You will feed on humans or other animals, and you might be unable to control your bloodlust, slaughtering anyone around you. Are you still willing to do that?

Chloe replied without hesitation, "I do!"

“Very well.” Jiang Chen’s eyes turned cold, and his voice became low. “Now beg me to allow you to join as a new vampire.”

"Please, sir, turn me into a vampire! I'll do anything, just don't let me die..."

He straightened up and looked at Edmund. "I grant your request."

However, under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be impossible for me to transform her myself, but now that the vampire clan is about to erupt into infighting, I must maintain my fighting strength and absolutely cannot enter a period of weakness.

so……"

Jiang Chen smiled and walked straight over to kick the female vampire who was pretending to be dead. "Stop pretending to be dead, get up and turn her into a vampire."

If she bleeds to death, I'll hold you accountable!

"Please calm down, my lord! I... I'll convert her right away!" The female vampire scrambled to her feet after her disguise was exposed, her attitude extremely respectful. "Rest assured, she will not die!"

She had personally witnessed the clan chief blast Emma into a cloud of blood mist because of a single sentence from this ancestor, and she had no intention of offending a powerful figure and putting herself in a deadly situation.

The female vampire touched Chloe's artery, then bent down and bit her neck, sucking a few mouthfuls of blood. When she felt it was enough, she bit her own wrist and placed it near Chloe's lips as she lay dying.

Edmund couldn't recall the exact process of his transformation; he only remembered the suffocating pain. But after succeeding, he quickly stopped feeling any discomfort and found himself more comfortable and at ease as a vampire than in a human body.

Just like he had done, Chloe was forcibly pushed away after involuntarily drinking the female vampire's blood, and after struggling in pain for a moment, she suddenly became stiff.

After her body died, she was reborn. Her sparse hair became full and fluffy, even with a golden sheen. Her teeth grew longer, her eyes became excessively bright, and her complexion became cleaner and more beautiful.

The moment Chloe successfully transformed into a vampire, the main system notified her that the mission was complete.

Jiang Chen's lips curled up slightly.

It only allows for conversion, without specifying that you have to do the conversion yourself.

So as long as the final result is that she successfully becomes a vampire, the process doesn't matter.

After all, they're not the main character, so the main system doesn't pay that much attention to them. Even if they realize something's wrong, it'll be too late to issue a patching quest.

I've never heard of vampires changing their allegiance.

Taking advantage of their attention being focused on the newborn vampire, Jiang Chen glanced down and saw that the script had indeed started updating again.

Hopefully this update will be a bit longer so I can get things moving. Once everything is ready, it won't be easy for the scriptwriting team to pull off some plot twists.

“I want more!” Chloe sat up from the ground, licked her lips, and stared at them with bright eyes, repeating, “I want more and more blood!”

Chapter Twenty-Four: You've Fallen in Love with Her?

“Of course you want more.” The female vampire who transformed her shook her head and smiled bitterly. “Newborn vampires are never satisfied. By transforming you into a vampire, I am your elder sister.”

My name is Lily. From now on, you will learn the rules of the vampire clan from me.

“My name is Chloe.” She stood up, her bright eyes looking at Edmund, and asked, “Sir, how should I address you?”

Edmund glanced back at the adult, and seeing that he looked down and didn't seem to want to talk to him, he politely declined, saying, "We are not from the same clan."

The lord is merciful and has granted my request to revive you and turn you into a vampire.

We probably won't have much contact in the future, so there's no need to ask each other's names. From now on, just focus on learning from your elders.

After saying that, he followed the adult who had slipped away and quickly disappeared from sight.

Chloe's grey eyes were fixed on the dimly lit spot where they had disappeared, and she couldn't bear to look away for a long time.

Once she was sure the other person had left, Lily's smiling face immediately fell. She glanced at her and said sarcastically, "Don't be delusional. He's that person's subordinate. How could he possibly be interested in someone like you?"

puff!

Go take a good look in the mirror. What a horrible sight you are! If that esteemed person hadn't personally spoken up, you wouldn't even be qualified to be a vampire!

"Come with me, and behave yourself from now on, or I'll tie you to a big tree and let the sun burn you alive!"

Chloe looked up at Lily with tears streaming down her face, looking pitiful. She was about to play the victim when she caught a glimpse of Lily's disdainful gaze. She immediately withdrew her pitiful expression and quickly replaced it with a fawning smile on her small face. "Sister Lily, I will definitely be a good girl."

"Hmph! You're young, but you've got a lot of tricks up your sleeve." Lily crossed her arms and sneered, "Stop with your little tricks. Aren't all vampires old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years?"

Moreover, we are no longer human.

Vampires operate on a law of survival of the fittest; your approach won't work.

If you cause trouble in the clan in the future, take responsibility for it yourself, and don't blame me!

She looked Chloe up and down with disdain, her clothes tattered, and pointed towards the bustling street, saying, "Now I'll take you hunting. Remember to find a prey about your size first, have a good meal after you've chosen one, and then change your clothes."

"If you come back to the clan's lair with me dressed in these rags, the other vampires will laugh at me to death! Be smarter when you're with me from now on, don't embarrass me or cause me trouble."

"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely listen to you obediently." Chloe lowered her head slightly to show her submission, but the images of the two handsome, dashing, and powerful adults kept flashing through her mind.

Their aristocratic mannerisms and their jewel-encrusted, luxurious attire all spoke volumes about their status and wealth.

Moreover, Lily was extremely respectful to them, afraid of being punished for saying the wrong thing. If they were there, she would never dare to treat them like that!

Chloe secretly resolved to first secure a foothold and strive for a place.

When I have the chance to meet those two adults in the future, I must seize the opportunity and follow them so that I can soar to great heights!

Chloe, now a vampire, adapted quickly. After Lily gave her a brief explanation of hunting, she quickly drained the blood of two brightly dressed twins of similar age and took their beautiful clothes to wear.

Meanwhile, Edmund accepted the blood offered by Jiang Chen to stave off his hunger.

He then respectfully asked, "Sir, why did you object to turning Chloe into a vampire just now? You mentioned that she was too young, and I've thought about it carefully, and it seems that all the vampires I've encountered are adults. Why is that?"

“There’s an unwritten rule among vampires—it’s forbidden to convert minors into vampires.” Jiang Chen stood on the rooftop overlooking the myriad candlelight, sighed, and said, “You know, becoming a vampire grants you near-immortality.”

Time is a terrible thing.

Only adults have the mental capacity to resist its erosion.

Minors are mentally immature, and their desires are often greater and more persistent. If they don't get what they want, over time they may gradually lose their way, their minds may become distorted, and they may ultimately become the source of disaster.

Edmund was completely bewildered. "My lord, I still don't quite understand. Isn't it good enough that becoming a vampire grants immortality and easy access to wealth?"

"It is the long time, the readily available wealth, and the right to be above any life and to slaughter it at will that allow newborn vampires to expand rapidly."

After the madness comes emptiness.

Extreme emptiness can drive them to seek out something more exciting or thrilling. For example—love.

Adults, whether physically or psychologically, are already set and will not change, but what about minors?

For example, Chloe.

She's just a child now, but what about ten, twenty, thirty, fifty, or even hundreds of years from now? Time will mature her mind, but as a vampire, her body can no longer grow and develop.

When Chloe longs for love and desires a voluptuous, mature body, who can give her that?

The more unattainable something is, the more she desires it, and this drives her mad, Edmund. She will hate us who turned her into a vampire, and to vent her anger, she will even deliberately torture and kill women—simply because they possess mature bodies that she can never have.

I fear that in a moment of impulsiveness today, we have created a demon.
