I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

Eve said as she silently looked away.

"Hmm... Master, are you very nervous right now? Are you trying to distract yourself because you're about to meet Miss Istina?"

"..."

After hearing Arcana's question, Eve was silent for a long time before continuing.

"I guess so. After all, I made her wait for so long. And I don't know how to explain it. After all, the changes in me can't be explained away by just saying I've changed a little bit."

As she spoke, Eve looked at her now fair and tender hands, without any scars or calluses left on them.

"After all, I'm a little scared. I'm afraid she won't accept me. After all, I am..."

Eve paused at the end, glanced at Lucia who was being led by Ilvia behind her, and chose not to say the last words, but Arcana also understood what she meant.

Since the vampires and trolls are responsible for guarding the Land of the Fallen to prevent the westward expansion of the human race, they are often treated as imaginary enemies in human education.

The blood clan was mistakenly believed to be a descendant of the devil by the human race, which led to the people's hatred for the blood clan becoming even greater.

This is why heroes of all generations would go to attack the Queen of the Blood Tribe instead of the Chief of the Troll Tribe.

"I know she won't care, but I'm just scared."

"Sister? Is it okay? I feel so lost."

Seeing Eve suddenly stop, Lucia walked up to her and hugged her gently. Her face looked a little lost, as if she was also infected by Eve's depression.

Looking at Lucia who was worried about her, Eve was slightly stunned, and then seemed to have figured something out, and the depressed feeling on her body disappeared.

"Phew, it's okay now. Thank you, little Lucia. After all, it's not my style to be so cautious. Let's go. Hurry up and get there before nightfall!"

"Ok!"

It’s not a good habit to let such a young child worry about you, Eve thought.

—·—·—·—·—·—·—

After stopping and walking along the way, the group of four finally arrived at the gate of the monastery in the evening.

From the outside, the monastery does not occupy a large area and its architectural style is very simple. The church logo is engraved on the gate, indicating that the goddess of light is worshipped here.

But after looking around, Eve frowned. The monastery was not far from the town, and there were only Istina, a nearly adult, and several children living there. If it were not for the secret protection of the vampires, the safety would be really questionable.

Although Istina also has some magical talent, she focuses on healing magic after all. Although bandits rarely risk being hunted by the church to attack the monastery, it is better to be safe than sorry.

And in the final analysis, wild monsters don't care whether your place is a monastery or not, they only care whether there is food.

"Tsk, are you planning on having a brave valet sacrifice himself heroically to protect the child?"

After figuring out the interests involved, Eve's expression became a little gloomy, but she immediately returned to her normal expression.

We will see each other again soon, so I can't be in a bad mood. I will settle the accounts with the Grans family after I take Istina away.

It seemed that because it was located in the suburbs, although it was just evening, the gate of the monastery was already tightly closed. Seeing this, Eve walked to the small door on the side and knocked.

After a while, the small window on the door was opened, and a slightly childish voice behind the door asked with some nervousness.

"You, who are you and what are you going to do?"

"Hello, little sister. We are here to visit Miss Istina. We are not bad people."

"Bad people don't say they are bad people!"

...To be honest, although this is indeed the case, I always think this conversation is so classic.

"Don't worry, there are only four girls here. If you don't believe me, you can take a look."

After hearing what Eve said, a little head popped up from under the small window as the sound of something being dragged came from behind the door.

After seeing that there were indeed only three little girls and an even younger child, the little girl behind the door let down her guard.

But after thinking about it, he still said.

"You also have to swear to the Goddess of Light that you won't do anything strange! Only then will you be allowed in."

In this world, this simple oath with the name of God is also effective. If violated, different levels of divine punishment will be received depending on the situation. I don’t know how the Goddess of Light manages so many people to swear every day.

By the way, although sunlight has a weakening effect on vampires, the holy light of the Goddess of Light has no effect on vampires. The reason seems to be quite complicated. Eve only heard Elizabeth mention it once, but did not explain it in detail.

"Okay, I swear to the Goddess of Light that I won't do anything strange after entering the monastery."

Afterwards, Ilvia, Arcana and the other two followed suit and said the same thing.

Seeing that nothing happened after the four men swore, the little girl inside the door also breathed a sigh of relief. She closed the small window, dragged away the stepping stone behind the door, and opened the small door.

Behind the small door was a girl about the same age as Lucia, who was looking at Eve and her group curiously.

"Welcome to the monastery. Those were the requests of the headmaster."

"Yeah, it's okay. It's a good thing to be more vigilant."

After entering the door, Eve couldn't help laughing when she saw the requirements written behind the small door.

It seems that Istina is also wary of strangers. At least the oath just now can serve as a warning.

"I'm here to visit Istina. Where is she now?"

"Sister Dean is in the back garden. Do you need me to lead the way?"

"Well... then please, just take me to the door."

As she spoke, Eve took out a few candies from her arms and handed them to her.

"Ah, thank you sister!"

The girl seemed very surprised when she took the candy, but then she put the candy away.

"Hmm? You don't want to eat?"

"The Dean said she wanted to share it with everyone."

Looking at such a well-behaved and lovely little girl, Eve also smiled knowingly.

"Okay, don't worry, I brought you a lot of candy. Just consider this as your reward for showing you the way."

As she spoke, Eve took out another piece of candy, peeled off the candy wrapper and handed it to her, and the little girl then put it into her mouth happily.

At this time, the footsteps of several people had reached the corridor on the side of the atrium. There were several fruit trees planted in the atrium, with some fruits on the trees, and a small vegetable garden. It was obvious that they were all being carefully cared for.

But Eve suddenly noticed that there were several carriages parked on the other side of the courtyard, with several men sitting next to them.

"Isn't this a convent for women only?"

Seeing this, Eve asked in confusion.

"My uncles are here to deliver food. They said their carriage broke down and needed repairs, so they planned to stay overnight."

"Is that so? By the way, are these uncles the ones who deliver food every time?"

"No, they said the uncles from before were busy, so they are the ones to deliver this time."

"Is this so..."

Although she only took a quick glance at those people, Eve felt that they could not be just ordinary porters, and she had an inexplicable feeling of disgust towards them. The last time she had this feeling was because of the devil's believers.

At this moment, Ilvia came over quietly and whispered.

"Eve, those people feel uncomfortable."

After hearing what Via said, Eve frowned, and Lucia, who was being taken care of by Ilvia, actually said that she also felt a little uncomfortable.

Well, being hated by three people with high affinity for the Holy Sword at the same time, combined with the Demon God believers that Elizabeth mentioned before leaving, the identities of these people are already obvious.

"Arkana, please keep an eye on these people."

"Well, leave it to me, Master."

As he spoke, Arcana left behind a fake body to continue following the others, while his real body quietly disappeared from the spot. After the group turned into a blind spot, the fake body also disappeared.

Eve doesn't want any trouble to happen as they are about to meet again, and she also needs to talk to Istina about this matter. With Arcana watching over there, there is no need to worry about them causing any trouble.

At this time, several people also arrived at the door of the back garden, and the time for reunion was about to come.

§ 43 Reunion

"call…"

Looking at the door leading to the back garden, Eve took a deep breath.

"Viya, could you and Lucia wait here for a moment?"

"Ah."

As she spoke, Ilvia took Lucia's hand.

For some reason, Ilvia, who usually doesn't like to interact with people except for a few people, seems to like getting along with Lucia. She was the one who led Lucia on the way here.

Although Lucia looked like she had no idea what was going on, she still encouraged Eve when she saw her determined expression.

"Sister, come on!"

"Yeah! Don't worry, Lucia, you have to stay here and wait for your sister to come back with Viya."

"Ok!"

jingle

After pushing open the door leading to the back garden from the corridor, the wind chimes hanging on the door made a crisp sound.

Hearing the sound of wind chimes, Istina, who was pruning fruit trees with her back to the garden gate, said casually.

"Kathy? Dinner's still a while away."

"..."

"Eh? Isn't that you, Cathy?"

As if noticing that the person coming was not who she thought, Istina turned her head.

What appeared in her eyes was a girl with black hair and red eyes. She didn't know when the girl had quietly come to a place not far behind her.

"Are you a guest, please?"

Seeing that the visitor was not someone she knew, Istina seemed a little confused, and at the same time, she quietly took a guarded stance with the garden scissors in her hand.

But the next moment, before she could react, the mysterious girl had already jumped into her arms as if by teleportation.

The girl's arms were around Istina, and since she was only as high as Istina's chest, she could only look up slightly at her.

The girl's bright red pupils were filled with longing, apology and other emotions. Although it was the first time they met, the look in her eyes made Istina feel nostalgic.

"Tina, I'm back. Sorry to have kept you waiting."

"Eh?"

As if she understood something, her body trembled slightly, and the scissors in her hand fell onto the grass.

"Are you...my hero?"

There was a hint of disbelief in Istina's voice. At this moment, she secretly hoped to get an answer, but she was also a little afraid to hear the answer from the girl in her arms.

"Well, a lot has happened, but I'm back."

"!!!"

After hearing the girl's answer, as if she was afraid that the figure in her arms would disappear again, Istina hugged Eve tightly in her arms, and her well-developed breasts acted like a facial cleanser for Eve.

At this moment, Eve could clearly feel that Istina's body was shaking constantly, and there was a slight sobbing sound coming from above.

It was not until a while later that Istina, who had calmed down a little, let her go.

"Welcome back!"

A beautiful smile with tears in its eyes bloomed in front of Eve.

As she calmed down a little, Istina realized what she had just done and said with a blushing face.

"Hello, I'm sorry, Mr. Hero."

"It's okay, it feels great. I've personally confirmed that the little girl from back then has grown up."

After hearing Eve's teasing, Istina blushed even more and instantly turned into a steam queen, looking like she wanted to bury herself on the spot.
