I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

After hearing her words, Istina hesitated, but finally asked.

"Then can you tell me what exactly happened then? Although I have asked Eve, she has been avoiding telling me the details."

Although Istina did not specify what she was asking, Ilvia naturally understood what she meant.

“…I…failed to protect her.”

After a long silence, Wei Ya finally spoke softly. At this moment, she changed her usual tone. Not only did her voice tremble slightly, but she also showed an expression that seemed to be about to cry.

“I can only watch…”

As she spoke, two lines of tears slowly fell from the corners of her eyes.

Seeing that Ilvia had started to cry, Tina no longer cared about her previous problem and hurried to comfort her.

"Okay, okay, Wei Ya, you don't have to say anything. I was like that too."

Thinking back to the time when her family held her hostage and sent Eve to fight against the Queen of the Blood Clan, Istina couldn't help but feel sad, but she still forced herself to comfort Ilvia in front of her.

"Let's become stronger together, so that nothing like what happened back then won't happen again."

Pulling up Ilvia's little hand and holding it in her palm, Istina looked into her eyes and said firmly.

"Ah."

After wiping away the tears from the corners of Ilvia's eyes, Istina couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. She originally thought that she was the only one who regretted her powerlessness at that time, but she didn't expect that Ilvia, who had always been with Eve, also had the same feeling as her.

When she first learned of Eve's death, she had never hated her own powerlessness so much. Why did she only have the aptitude for healing magic? Why could she only hide behind her brave master? If she had power, she would not have been caught by the family, and her brave master would not have been forced to fight the Demon King, and nothing would have happened.

It was for this reason that when she saw Eve again, who had become a vampire, she asked Eve to become a vampire as well. After all, she felt that after becoming a vampire, she would at least be able to help her brave master a little.

Although Eve has become much stronger now and has become the princess of the vampire clan, she is still very afraid that one day Eve will disappear again.

So she has been trying to become stronger, trying to catch up with Eve. Even if she can't do it, it would be good to share some of her burden.

At this moment, with the sound of the door being pushed open outside the bedroom, Eve had finished washing and was walking towards this side. Istina hurriedly patted her cheeks to break her depressed expression, and hurriedly looked to see if Ilvia had recovered.

squeak

"I'm back~ Eh? What happened? Why do you feel a little unwell?"

Eve looked at the two people on the bed, but before she could see anything...

"Owner!"

A powerful attack from Arcana from behind knocked her directly to the edge of the bed.

"Ah! Ka! Na!"

With Arcana's sudden interruption, Istina hurriedly followed in case Eve discovered anything.

"Alright, alright, stop making trouble and go to sleep."

Hearing what Istina said, Eve raised her hand and threw Arcana behind her onto the bed with a back throw, then reached out to turn off the lights in the room. Although the bed here was not as big as her princess bed, since there were three lolis among the four people, she could barely squeeze in.

"Huh~Goodnight~"

"OK, good night."

§ 75 Clothes and Money

next morning

"Well…"

Eve woke up from her sleep with the familiar feeling of oppression on her body. To be honest, she was already somewhat familiar with this situation.

But the weight on her today seemed a little strange, and it shouldn't be just Ilvia.

He turned his head slightly and glanced around. Among the four people who were lying neatly before going to bed, only Istina was still beside him, while Ilvia and Arcana were nowhere to be found, or were sleeping soundly on him.

We shared a bed before going to sleep, and after waking up, I had my own mattress. Speaking of which, her already extremely small breasts shouldn't be flattened any further, because if they were any smaller, they would be concave...

Although she felt a little reluctant, since today was the time to accompany Istina, Eve quietly pulled out her body that was pressed down by the two of them and woke them up at the same time.

"Um...Eve?"

"Okay~Viya, go back to sleep."

Facing the sleepy Ilvia, Eve gently carried her back to her normal position and covered her with the quilt. As for Arcana...

Well, looking at her kneeling on the bed with an extremely sober look and admitting her mistake, Eve felt that she was different from Viya's non-subjective attitude. She had sufficient reasons to suspect that Akana had deliberately slept with her.

After tapping Arcana on the head, Eve ignored her and gently nudged Istina beside her.

"Tina, Tina, wake up~"

"Um…Eve?"

"Get up, you still have to take me around today."

"Hey...isn't Eve taking me?"

After hearing her words, Istina was obviously still a little confused. How come she suddenly became the one taking Eve to play? Wasn't it Eve who chose the place?

"Oh, I forgot to mention that you guys decide the destination for the first three days, and I'll be the one to play with you. I'll only decide the destination on the last day, so today's itinerary planning is up to you."

Eve patted Istina's shoulder as she spoke, as if entrusting her with a big task.

"Eh? Eh!!!"

After hearing what Eve said, Tina immediately became alert. What? She was asked to plan the itinerary? She had no plan at all!

"Well, anyway, let's think about it while we eat breakfast, hey."

At the end of her speech, Eve squinted her eyes and looked cute.

"oh oh."

Istina, who was overwhelmed by Eve's cuteness just now, staggered out of bed and walked into the living room in a daze.

At this time, breakfast had been placed on the table at some point, and there was a small charcoal stove underneath that was constantly heating the food to prevent it from getting cold.

Inside the house, Eve pushed Akana back onto the bed and covered him with a blanket, then followed him out.

"Hmm...it seems like Eve is up really early now, even though she hasn't slept for very long."

Thinking back to her daily life after reuniting with Eve, Istina muttered while drinking porridge.

It was obviously she who used to wake Eve up, and she could admire Eve's sleeping face, but since they met again, it seemed that she never woke up earlier than Eve, and it was always Eve who woke her up.

She obviously went to bed much earlier than Eve, but she always woke up later than Eve, and Eve didn't look sleep-deprived at all.

"Hmm... maybe it's the influence of my vampire habits. I have a lot of energy."

Eve said uncertainly after thinking about her own random schedule.

After all, her biological clock had already flown away when she stayed up all night.

"Is this so..."

In this way, breakfast time passed as the two of them chatted intermittently, and by this time, Istina had already made plans for the day.

"Then let's go clothes shopping this morning!"

"Eh? Here?"

While buying clothes in the hot spring hotel, Eve said that she was a little confused about this idea.

"Well, the afternoon and evening activities are pretty close, so I'll take advantage of this morning to look at the costumes here. After all, dress-up magic requires a lot of clothes as inventory, and I also want to see Eve try on Hanfu."

"Hmm... As for Hanfu, my costume-changing magic doesn't really include it. But Tina's other clothes can actually be custom-made for you by the vampires. That's how I made my clothes."

The clothes included in Eve's dress-up magic were all custom-made by the palace, but she herself didn't have many requirements for the clothes.

"No~ It's fun to shop by yourself~, okay~"

Faced with her hesitation, Istina used her own method to retaliate and started acting cute.

Eve also chose to give in to her coquettishness. After all, it was just a shopping trip, what big problem could it be? Although she soon regretted it.

"Okay, okay, I told you to do whatever you want today."

"Yeah! Eve is the best!"

As he said that, he hugged her.

So Eve and Istina went to the clothing area together.

Unlike the small shop selling swimwear, the clothing store was not located on the side of the hot spring hotel, but was also facing the guests in the city, so they took the wrong road at first. Finally, after asking the hotel staff for directions, the two of them successfully found the clothing store.

And Istina also allowed Eve to successfully experience one of every girl's innate skills - trying on clothes.

To be honest, Eve's own clothes are basically custom-designed by the palace designer according to the situation, and she herself is not very good at choosing clothes. She basically just follows her feelings. If she feels that a piece of clothing suits her, she will directly put it into the dressing magic box for use.

She usually just wore the outfit she was most accustomed to, rarely changing the style. Depending on the situation, she would change into corresponding functional clothing, such as combat uniforms, dresses, etc. This was her first time to go shopping with others to choose clothes.

This directly led to Eve being completely confused at this time. Why did two very beautiful clothes have to be ranked according to their quality? Why didn't she choose this one when it was obviously suitable? Why did the salesgirl say so many complicated things just because the color was slightly changed, and why was Istina able to continue the conversation?

Who am I, where am I, and why am I here?

But judging from Istina's expression, she seemed to be enjoying it very much, and Eve had no choice but to try her best to find different adjectives from her already limited vocabulary to describe each piece of clothing.

In the end, she, the princess of the vampire clan, was actually at a loss for words.

Fortunately, Eve finally remembered her advantage - although she couldn't describe clothes, she had money.

So Eve decisively adopted the "I want them all" strategy, solving the problem of choosing clothes from the root in one fell swoop.

Then her money ability was banned by Istina. In her words, it was meaningless.

What else could Eve say about this? She could only obey.

…Okay, let’s fast forward to choosing a kimono.

Trying to use AI to create a new cover

I originally planned to make a picture of Hanfu, but AI really can't stand Hanfu (covering face)

§ 76 Hanfu Mountain Tour

Different from choosing ordinary clothes and changing them one by one, because Hanfu is more complicated to wear and change, Istina was much more cautious when choosing this time. After a long time, she picked up a set of Hanfu mainly in cherry pink and walked into the changing room.

As for Eve, she still followed her usual way of choosing clothes from the heart. She very straightforwardly picked two sets of somewhat similar Hanfu, one mainly red and the other mainly black, both decorated with patterns embroidered with gold thread. After roughly comparing them to see if they fit, she bought them directly and put them into the dressing magic.

Then...

Snapped

With a snap of fingers and the rising of a magic circle, Eve's casual clothes were directly replaced with the black Hanfu. It was simple, quick, and convenient, and it received five-star praise.

The black Hanfu matched with her long black hair gave people a feeling of coldness and arrogance, and also slightly revealed some of the faint majesty of her as a princess. The golden thread patterns on her double-breasted jacket and folded skirt made the atmosphere around her not so gloomy.

Finally, two red silk sashes woven together hang naturally as embellishments, adding a touch of elegance to her.

Looking at the mirror in front of her, Eve was very satisfied with the Hanfu she had chosen, and she planned to change into the red one when she had silver hair.

As for the reason why she chose these two colors, it was more or less influenced by her vampire bloodline. After all, her daily clothes are red and black, so it has become a habit.

Meanwhile, Istina had already changed into the Hanfu she had just chosen and walked out of the dressing room nearby.

"Eh? Eve, how did you change into that?"

Seeing Eve wearing Hanfu, Istina seemed a little surprised. Eve was still choosing when she went in, but when she came out, she found that Eve had already changed and was waiting for her.

"Magic."

Eve answered with confidence.

"What if it doesn't fit?"

"Hmm? Just ask someone to make some minor changes."

"..."

As expected of Her Royal Highness the Princess, whose clothes are all custom-made by a special person, Istina deeply felt that her brave lord had been spoiled.

"Well, let's not talk about this anymore. How do you feel?"
