"She is really serious about learning how to do housework."

Lianna sighed, then took another look at the bed in the room. The quilt was not folded at all and was full of clothes in a mess.

"It seems she is a theorist."

Could you please at least clean up your room?

"But it's a bit strange." Liana suddenly narrowed her eyes slightly, noticing something was wrong. "The courtyard and the first floor are very clean, but why is the bedroom on the second floor so messy?"

"Maybe they hired someone to clean it regularly," Emmett guessed. "But the cleaning doesn't include the more private areas on the second floor."

"Maybe."

Liana tentatively agreed with Emmett's statement, and looked back at the notebook on the table, flipping back a few pages.

At this moment, a line of small words written on the edge of the page came into view -

Wait for me, Lor.

"Huh? What does this mean?" Lianna was a little surprised.

The content and the course content are similar to each other, and it feels like my thoughts are casually recorded on paper...

Continuing to flip forward, there is another line of puzzling small print -

Find her and kill her. That's the only way I can go from monster to human.

"From a monster back to a human?" Liana frowned. "...Your Highness, what do you think this means? Could it be that 'Isabella the Blessed' wants to abandon her vampire identity? Also, who is this 'she'?"

Emmett, in the distance, didn't answer immediately.

After pondering for a long time, he suddenly burst into laughter:

"Interesting, very interesting! Who is 'she'? Of course, it's the True Ancestor Lilith! My little sister is planning something incredible... She's actually trying to completely eradicate the power of the vampires from this world!"

"...What?" Liana was completely stunned when she heard that.

"I said before that everything she pursued was just a farce on stage, which would ultimately be nothing... Now it seems that I underestimated her." Emmett continued, his tone gradually becoming excited. "What she is going to perform is not a farce, but a complete tragedy!"

"From what you said, it couldn't be..." Liana felt a bad premonition in her heart.

"I've decided. I'm going to help her and witness her struggle and destruction firsthand."

There was a hint of expectation in Emmett's tone:

"Then, when the show ends and the curtain falls... as always, I will offer my condolences to this lost 'brother'."

62. Principles of professionals

In the evening, the Holy Light Church in Gordon City.

"...A passing psychologist?" After taking a quick look at the mission report submitted by Vivian, Acting Captain Joyce raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Yes," Vivian replied seriously. "She was a very professional lady. She concluded that the girl named Leila didn't actually see the dragon. It was her subconscious worry and fear that caused her to hallucinate."

"What's your judgment?" Joyce asked, feeling that this matter was a little unnatural.

"I used a third-level mystical spell to examine the girl's memory, and the conclusion I reached was consistent with that of the psychiatrist. Furthermore, there were no signs of any supernatural powers either on the girl or around the village."

Because of the influence of hypnosis, Vivian had forgotten the signs of ice she had previously discovered.

"From this perspective, the whole thing is indeed just a misunderstanding." Joyce nodded, but there was still a hint of doubt in his eyes. "As for this passing psychologist...did she confirm her specific identity?"

"She has an official medical license and an employment letter from the Royal City Hospital. She's on her way to take up her new position and just happened to be passing by," Vivian replied confidently, looking very admiring. "That lady's speech and demeanor are quite scholarly, and she's very knowledgeable about psychology. She's a respectable professional woman!"

"Ok."

Seeing Vivian's certainty, Joyce stopped asking questions.

After all, "sighting a giant dragon" sounds too far-fetched and it's impossible to be true.

Therefore, this survey result is not surprising.

"But, for a mission that's clearly a misunderstanding, you actually resorted to using a third-level arcane spell..." Joyce gasped. "Although Vann's spells are cheap, they must have cost at least twenty or thirty gold coins, right? You're so heartless... Well, I'll try to get it reimbursed for you, but don't get your hopes up."

"It doesn't matter whether it's reimbursed or not." The wealthy Vivian said calmly, "As long as we can get to the bottom of this matter and confirm that innocent people are not threatened, it's worth it!"

"Although what you said is true, but...as a senior, I still have to remind you."

Joyce sighed lightly and said seriously:

"I know you're not short of money, but when it's time to take advantage of the church, you absolutely must be resolute! This is a matter of principle for us as professionals!"

"A matter of principle?" Vivian looked puzzled.

"That's right, and this isn't just about you; it's about the workplace atmosphere."

Joyce said earnestly:

"If you don't reimburse once, twice, it will put pressure on other colleagues over time... and may even make them hesitate to collect the monetary compensation they deserve.

"But as extraordinary beings, we already spend a lot of money to accumulate resources and improve our strength. Moreover, we do a job that is always accompanied by danger. In addition to relying on faith to maintain motivation, financial incentives are also indispensable."

"I... think I understand." Vivian seemed to understand. "Since you've said that, please help me get the cost of the third-level talisman reimbursed."

"Well, that's how it should be." Joyce nodded with satisfaction. "Although I can't guarantee that I can help you get it, I will try my best... By the way, you are tired too, right? You should go back and rest early."

"Not yet." Vivian glanced at the wall clock and shook her head. "It's not even time for the 'Acting Captain' to get off work yet. I have to keep an eye on you, lest you leave early right after I do."

As she spoke, she looked at Joyce with a smile, her expression somewhat reminiscent of Captain Ronina's:

"We cannot be late or leave early, nor can we be absent from work without reason. This is also a matter of principle for us as working people."

……

call--

Today's incident was a close call.

Isabella thought as she walked home holding Meimei's little hand.

Although there were some accidents in the middle, fortunately, I am smart, resourceful, and have great means, and I was able to successfully escape danger in the end... At the moment, no one knows that the girl named Leila has awakened as a "Dragon" root extraordinary being, including herself.

As for what to do next, let Lor worry about it.

Generally speaking, the most appropriate way to deal with it is to find a way to deprive the girl of her extraordinary power and pretend that nothing happened... The Holy Light Church has this method, and so far, they have deprived countless illegal extraordinary people of their power.

"Ah, if only the vampire power within me could simply disappear..."

Isabella couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Another thing that surprised her was... Vivian actually had no improper thoughts about Luo Er! It was unbelievable. She had partnered with Luo Er more than once or twice, but she really had no feelings for him at all?

Hiss, what a scary woman.

Apart from work, is there really nothing else that she cares about?

Suddenly I felt that it was a bit stupid of me to always treat her as an imaginary rival in love.

Besides, it's so embarrassing!

This makes me look like a dog guarding its food. Whenever someone approaches, I will show my fangs fiercely, thinking that the other person is trying to steal the food from me... Damn it, it's all the fault of that idiot Lor!

The man's face appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help swallowing.

"Sister Isabella, I'm hungry." At this moment, Meimei suddenly pinched Isabella's palm.

"No, no!" The young lady was momentarily flustered, as if someone had revealed her true feelings. "I'm not horny or thirsty, and I'm not missing him!"

"Hmm?" Meimei tilted her head in confusion, and at the same time, her stomach began to growl.

"So you're talking about yourself..." Isabella blushed, realizing she had misunderstood. "Okay, okay, we just got paid today, so let's go buy a bunch of delicious food to take home!"

"Ok!"

……

As soon as I entered the house, I saw the doll Roland stumbling towards me:

"Oh no, miss, this is a big deal! The house was robbed while you were away!"

"Thief?" Isabella looked unconcerned. "I thought it was a big deal... It's nothing. We don't have any cash or valuables at home anyway."

Yes, if I hadn’t gone to church to collect Lor’s salary today, my family would have had trouble making ends meet.

Although there was still an emergency reserve of one thousand gold coins, the money was still lying in the bank and had not been moved; as for the checkbook for withdrawing money, Isabella always carried it with her.

"No, Miss, listen to me... that thief is no ordinary thief, and she's not after money!" Roland explained hurriedly, "She's a vampire family member, and she came here to investigate you!"

63. People who can’t be seen through

Blood clan relatives?

Isabella's heart skipped a beat, and she grabbed the doll Roland and lifted it up.

"Are you serious? If you dare to play any evil tricks and deceive me, I'll throw you into the fireplace!"

"Of course it's true! I'm loyal to the young lady and wouldn't dare tell a lie!" Roland the doll swore hastily. "If you don't believe me, ask Meimei. That little girl has a very good nose!"

"It does smell like a stranger..." Little Dragon Lady confirmed with flaring nostrils. Then, as if remembering something, she said, "Well, when Sister Isabella came home yesterday, she also had a bit of that smell on her."

Wait, what do you mean?

In other words, this guy who broke into my house had contact with me yesterday?

Isabella became more and more frightened.

She tried hard to recall what she had done and who she had met yesterday.

Well, I went shopping for clothes, waited in line at the bakery for the cakes to come out of the oven, and went to home economics class... During this time, I met a lot of people...

"How do you know that guy is a vampire?" Isabella asked, holding up the doll Roland in front of her.

"She said it herself. Ever since she entered the room, the woman has been mumbling incoherently, as if she were talking to someone who wasn't there," Roland recalled the scene and described it. "During the conversation, she explicitly mentioned words like vampires and dependents... Oh, and she even called that absent person "master!" Listen, how could she possibly be wrong? And judging by the content of the conversation, her master must be a man!"

It’s “sensory sharing”…

This means that this uninvited guest is indeed a member of the vampire clan.

Isabella narrowed her eyes slightly and thought to herself.

Moreover, her master is no small character.

You know, the skill "Sharing Senses" is only available to high-ranking vampires. And the so-called high-ranking vampires are those who are within three generations of "True Ancestor Lilith" and whose True Ancestor blood is relatively rich...

Generally speaking, unless a person has granted others the "First Embrace" too many times, causing the concentration of the True Ancestor's blood in their bodies to be greatly diluted, the strength of a high-ranking vampire is at least at the fifth level.

"Oh, you've come just in time." Isabella snorted softly, "I was just worried about not being able to find a vampire, and now, someone has come to my door."

"I guess the thief's master is very afraid of your strength." Roland added, "He's obviously hesitant about whether to fight you directly, so he sent his followers to investigate first..."

In other words, before I even noticed it, the other party had already sensed my presence.

No, wait.

Isabella suddenly realized that things might be more serious than she had initially thought.

Vampires can sense the approach of their own kind. Since he was able to spot me first, it means that his perception range is greater than mine... and perception ability is usually directly linked to strength...

In other words, the opponent is stronger than me who has the strength of level seven!

Thinking of this, Isabella's pupils suddenly shrank and she felt uneasy.

What, what, what should I do?

To think that such a thing could happen, and it happened when Lor was not around...

After a brief panic, she took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Come to think of it, it's better if Lor isn't here...

After all, enemies of this level are too dangerous for Lor. Even if he has a lot of strange talismans and props in his hands, once he is targeted by a real high-level existence, it will be difficult for him to escape unscathed!

"Since the other party is afraid of me, it means that he is not sure of victory."

Isabella thought for a moment and made a judgment.

Even if they are all vampires, their abilities and tendencies may differ.

Since the opponent is so cautious, it means that his ability is probably not suitable for direct combat... If that's the case, even if the opponent is at level seven like me, or even level eight, if we really fight, I may still have a chance of winning!

"What I have to do now is to pretend nothing happened to avoid alerting the enemy. Then, I have to find a way to figure out who this guy hiding in the dark is and determine his strength and abilities... Well, if it were Lor, he would probably do the same."

Who is this annoying guy?
