I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

The blood-colored gem on it is naturally not an ordinary item, but a tiny blood star diamond. Although it is not as precious as the one on the necklace of Eve's dress, it can also be called a treasure.

It is no exaggeration to say that the cost of this ring is enough to equal half a city, and it is still in short supply.

"Hey! Princess, this..."

Sophia seemed a little hesitant when she saw the ring and didn't dare to reach out to take it. After all, the ring in front of her could be said to be a symbol of Princess Eve's identity.

"It's okay, just take it, just in case."

"...Well then, Princess, leave it to me."

After some hesitation, Sophia finally accepted the ring.

"Well, please."

框

After closing the door, Eve continued running and trotted straight towards the inner castle of the palace, attracting many people's attention.

But Eve didn't pay any attention to their gazes and went straight to her destination.

Finally, after arriving at the study door, Eve knocked hurriedly. As soon as she heard a response from inside, she pushed the door open.

"Mother."

"What's wrong, little Eve? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Elizabeth was a little puzzled seeing Eve like this, but she still left the desk and took Eve to a chair nearby.

"I just faced off against Emrik at the training ground. Mother should have heard about it, right?"

"Well, what's wrong?"

Elizabeth seemed a little confused when she heard Eve ask this.

She already knew that Emrik was going to confront Eve again, and because of their previous experiences she wasn't worried about any accidents, even though Eve mentioned yesterday that Emrik seemed to have gained some power.

After all, the difference in combat power between the two of them could not be made up by any adventure, even if Eve was not in perfect condition.

"Mother, the power Emrik gained may be related to the demon."

"!!!Are you sure?"

Hearing her say this, Elizabeth immediately put on a serious expression.

"During the battle, black flames appeared on his body, which greatly increased his self-healing ability. Even with only his head left, he was able to recover quickly, and he would also lose his mind."

Eve quickly summarized the abnormalities in Emrik, and Elizabeth's expression became more serious as she listened to Eve's story.

"And, most importantly, as a Holy Sword, Weiya is extremely disgusted with that power."

"...How is he now? Where was he sent to?"

After thinking for a while, Elizabeth asked seriously.

"I crushed him into a bloody mist during the battle, and then he was locked up in Weiya's blockade and taken to the infirmary and sealed again. I also had the demiplane where we just fought sealed off."

"I see. Well done."

Elizabeth felt a little relieved after hearing how Eve handled the situation.

"Let's go, let's go check it out first and then make sure."

"Ah."

After saying this, the mother and daughter left the inner castle together.

The reason why Eve and Elizabeth take this matter so seriously has to do with the existence of the devil.

First of all, no one on this continent dares to use the title of "Demon God". For example, the human race calls the Queen of the Blood Clan the Demon King.

It is no exaggeration to say that on the mainland, the word "demon" is enough to stop children from crying at night. The reason why the demon is so frightening is related to a period of history, that is, the "Dark Age".

The Dark Ages began after the end of the Mythological Age. The exact time of its beginning cannot be verified due to the huge historical gap, but during that period, all races and civilizations on the continent were almost completely extinct. The few remaining records were passed down orally by the immortals and were finally transcribed and passed down after the end of the Dark Ages.

The culprit behind all this is the devil.

The most widely circulated story about the Demon God on the continent is a short narrative poem:

The star of despair descended from the sky;

The sky collapsed and the eternal night began;

The mist of death covers the world;

The brave man comes from prayer;

The fog dissipates and dawn begins;

The dead star finally fell into the blue sky;

The poem generally tells the story of the coming of the devil, the beginning of the Dark Age, and finally the fall of the devil and the end of the Dark Age.

As for the final battlefield of the Demon God Crusade, it is located on the cliff at the edge of the blood clan's territory, the highest peak of the continent - Biluo.

§ 25 The Mystery of the Demon God (Part 2)

In the battle later named the Demon God Crusade, several powerful men fought to the death and eventually disappeared into the blue sky together with the Demon God. The top of the blue sky was turned into a Jedi due to the residual power in the battle, and almost no one could set foot there.

The holy sword and other weapons named "holy" are the weapon elves that participated in the war against the demons.

However, so far, according to the records of the human race, only the Holy Sword appears among the human race every hundred years. As for other weapons, their status is unknown. Perhaps they were awakened by races other than the human race.

After all, the human race is trapped in a corner of the continent and the intelligence they can obtain is very limited, and information such as the holders of holy weapons must be confidential matters of all races.

In short, the title of Demon God can be said to be the nightmare of all life on the continent. Even today, after such a long time, no one dares to touch this taboo.

At the same time, the influence brought by the Demon God is also very far-reaching. For example, the reason why the records about the mythological era are so scarce is related to this. Eve speculates that the records of the dragon clan may also be implicated because of this. Some technologies that existed in the mythological era were also lost in the Dark Ages. It can be said that the Demon God almost caused a major fault in the continental civilization with his own strength.

There are actually quite a few outrageous rumors about the Demon God. Take Eve's personal experience as an example. In the human propaganda, the blood clan is the descendant of the Demon God. Therefore, the blood clan queen is named the Demon King by the human race. Generations of heroes have been sent to try to conquer him, and this generation sent Eve.

Of course, the fundamental reason why the human race is still sending warriors to challenge the Blood Queen has long become that the human race is trying to expand westward. It is no longer out of any sense of responsibility to defeat the descendants of the demon god. However, the title still exists in this regard, after all, it is a righteous title.

As for the origin of this rumor, it was the line in the narrative poem, "The sky collapsed and the eternal night began." After all, mentioning the eternal night inevitably brings to mind the vampires, so the vampires, as a nocturnal race, were burdened with the blame.

However, this rumor was only spread within the human race, and other races on the continent, such as the beastmen and elves, scoffed at it.

After all, unlike the human race, whose heritage has been largely lost, the elves have an incredibly long lifespan and many of them have living histories, so they naturally know that the vampires also participated in the war against the demon god.

As for the beastmen, they follow the law of the jungle and believe that strength is supreme. Elizabeth's power as the queen of the blood clan is enough to impress them, so they will not spread rumors.

Besides, there are nocturnal tribes among the elves and beastmen, but they are not as afraid of sunlight as the vampires.

By the way, the blood clan also shelters some orcs from several races such as the cat clan and the fox clan. These races often do not like fighting, so they do not live very well within the orc clan. It just so happens that the blood clan needs to establish relationships with various races in exchange for different blood, so the two hit it off.

The vampires provide armed protection, while the foxes and cats provide blood and some beast products for trading, creating a perfect win-win situation.

Moreover, the continent as a whole is currently very peaceful. Except for the Fallen Fields where the vampires, trolls and humans meet, there is a tacit understanding between the other races that there will be no fighting, even the violent orcs.

Eve had heard Elizabeth mention the reason, which seemed to be related to the west of the continent, but when asked in detail, Elizabeth rejected her request with words like "It's too early for you" or "If possible, I hope you can just not know the reason."

However, since Eve could sense that Elizabeth said this out of consideration for her, she did not ask any further questions.

Back to the present, as the mother and daughter approached the infirmary, they vaguely heard some voices coming from there, as if they were arguing about something.

Eve frowned upon seeing this and spoke softly to Elizabeth.

"…Mother, please wait a moment. I'll go take a look."

"Ah."

As Eve approached the infirmary with light steps, the quarrel at the door became clearly audible.

"I've already told you! It was the clan that asked me to take Second Young Master Emrik back!"

"I also told you that it was Her Royal Highness the Princess who forbade anyone to see him. Are you going to disobey Her Royal Highness's order?"

"you!"

Hearing Sophia bring up the princess as a backer again, the man couldn't help but feel furious, but he really had no way to use this backer.

On the one hand, there is a death order issued by the head of the family's right-hand men. If he can't bring Emrik back, he will probably be finished. On the other hand, there is an order from the princess. If he dares to disobey, he will also be finished. Now there is no way out.

Suddenly the man's eyes turned and he thought of a way to break the deadlock.

"You said that it was Her Royal Highness the Princess's order to forbid others from meeting you. Do you have any evidence?"

"Humph, this is His Highness's ring. Do you have anything else to say?"

As she spoke, Sophia took out the ring that Eve had given her.

"!"

Seeing the ring in Sophia's hand, the man was obviously a little surprised, but he immediately suppressed it and pretended to be calm.

"Oh, how could Her Highness the Princess give you her own ring as a token of trust? Stop pretending here."

As he said this, the man pushed Sophia and tried to break into the infirmary.

"you!"

"What? Don't think you can fool me with just a broken ring! Get out of my way!"

As he spoke, the man added a little more strength in his hands.

"Oh, I didn't expect my ring to become a broken thing."

Just as the man was pushing Sophia, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him, which instantly made him feel as if he had fallen into an icy cave, and the pushing action of his hands froze immediately.

"!"

"What's wrong? You don't even dare to look back and check? Maybe it's fake too."

"!!!"

At this time, the man was trembling all over. After he turned around with difficulty and saw who was coming, he immediately fell to the ground.

"Your Highness, your ring."

Seeing Eve rushing back, Sophia returned the ring to Eve. She was still a little nervous about holding such a valuable item in her hands.

"Well, please."

Eve took the ring from Sophia and put it on her hand, then looked at the man slumped on the ground.

"Okay, now you still think it's fake? Huh?"

"Your Highness, I am only doing this because of the orders from my clan!"

Seeing Eve's sudden appearance, the man was so frightened that he spoke without thinking. He originally thought it was just a simple errand to bring his second young master back. He never thought it would turn out to be the current situation.

Although he felt a little strange at Butler Adrian's serious look when he received the order, he did not think much about it. After all, his second young master had been sent to the infirmary by Eve more than once or twice, so it was not difficult to pick someone up.

Then the princess's order slapped him in the face. When he tried to deceive her and take her away by force, he was caught red-handed. He was extremely unlucky.

"Roar, so this is an order from your clan, the clan leader? Or the housekeeper? Or someone else?"

"Ah! Um... this..."

Hearing Eve's question, the man immediately realized that he had spoken out of turn and began to stutter.

"Forget it. I don't have time to take care of you for now, Sophia. Just lock him up first."

Looking at the man's expression, Eve was too lazy to waste time talking to him. Naturally, there would be professional players in the blood clan to take charge of the matter. Right now, the most important thing was to focus on the matter of the Demon God.

If the power Emrik obtained was really related to the demon, then the Gangro clan was probably also involved. At least from what that person just said, the Gangro clan at least knew something about it, otherwise they would not be so anxious to take Emrik away.

"Yes."

After hearing Eve's words, Sophia immediately blocked the man's magic and ability to move.

"Oh, mother, I've been waiting for you."

"No, little Eve is very handsome."

With a chuckle, Elizabeth slowly walked out from the corner of the corridor, followed by Ilvia and Arcana.

"!!"

Seeing the usually very majestic queen showing this look, Sophia was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped to the ground. She didn't even dare to go up to join in the fun. She just chose to stand obediently at the door of the infirmary and act as a guard.

"Your Highness, Emrik is in the room. You and Her Majesty the Queen can check it out. I will be leaving now."
