I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

"Huh~ We're finally out! When we were in there, I thought we'd be trapped for ages. I had no idea if Rusina would be able to get out of the cave safely."

After returning to the ground and breathing a breath of fresh air, Darlene stretched and couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, thanks to Miss Eve's rescue."

As she spoke, Alena looked towards Eve with gratitude.

"And it's all thanks to little Ruthina. It was thanks to her that she rushed to the guild to ask for help in time."

Hearing their conversation, Elena also patted Rusina's little head beside her.

"What are you planning to do tonight? Are you going back to the city with me? Or are you camping here all night?"

This side of the cave seemed to be a camping spot for adventurers. Compared to when Eve had just arrived, many temporary camps had been set up around the cave entrance.

"Then please take care of us for a while."

There was no hesitation. After all, there was no reason to refuse a big partner who came to the door. Although there were basically no wild beasts or monsters on the road from the cave entrance to the city because people often came and went all year round, it was better to be safe than sorry. Since Eve said that she would protect them for a while, they naturally accepted it with pleasure.

In this way, the group walked into the dim forest and headed towards the city.

—·—·—·—·—·—·—

The entrance to the cave was not too far from the city. After all, Ruthina was able to run back in time to ask for help despite being injured. Now that everyone was in good condition, they naturally returned to the city quickly.

Since the elf girls had been healed by Eve with the Tears of the Savior before, they were in good condition at the moment. Therefore, after a brief discussion, they decided to go to the guild first, sell the materials, and then find a place to celebrate with Eve.

In their words, we didn't charge any compensation for rescuing her, and even the monster materials were given to us to dispose of, so we must thank her.

So Eve agreed to their request because she couldn't refuse their kindness.

Pushing open the door of the guild, many elves were waiting here anxiously. There were even more people than when Eve left. Some of them probably rushed here to wait after hearing the news. When they saw Ruthna and the others returned safely, they hurriedly surrounded them and even pushed Eve aside.

Eve chuckled at the scene in front of her. It seemed that the relationship between the elves was really good, and they would not try to be tough and put themselves in danger. This was a very good style.

After all, it is not a good habit to try to rescue someone when you don't have enough strength. Not only will you fail to rescue the other person, you may also lose yourself.

§ 28 Banquet [Fifth Update]

While she was being pushed aside and Ruthina and the others were surrounded by elves, Eve went to the guild front desk to complete this urgent commission. At this time, Alena finally had some free time.

"Everyone!"

She clapped her hands suddenly, drawing everyone's attention to herself.

"To thank Miss Eve for her help, our team is going to invite Miss Eve to a thank-you banquet. Would you like to come too?"

"it is good!"

Although the scene was a bit noisy and many people were still discussing what they would bring to the banquet to celebrate, it seemed that no one here planned to be absent.

Among the people present, only Eve and the others were a little confused. Wait, wasn't this just a small party between the eight of them? How did it suddenly turn into a large gathering with so many elves in attendance?!

Compared to their confusion, Alena had already made a plan.

"Alright! Then we'll set off after we sell the materials. The venue will be at the Spring Courtyard! Everyone can go there in advance to prepare!"

After hearing what Alena said, some elves left first. Of course, they actually wanted to go back and get some food they made so that they could share it with everyone at the banquet, while some elves waited on the side.

"Mavis, please calculate the price of these materials."

As she spoke, Alena came to the front desk of the guild and piled up all the spider monster materials on hand aside.

"Okay, wait a moment, I will arrange for someone to come and check it out."

When Mavis left the front desk, she also brought out a small cart. After piling all the materials on the cart, she pulled the cart towards the valuation area.

"By the way, can you pay me a portion of the reward first? I can pay the rest later."

Before Mavis entered the appraisal area, Alena quickly asked again.

"No problem, Alena, have some fun later~"

Just like that, five minutes later, Mavis came back with a bag of gold coins.

"Okay, take these for now. This is the basic estimate based on the monster's level. There's still some balance being calculated, and I'll give it to you when Alena comes to the guild again."

She added at the end.

"The state of these materials is astonishing. Was it that S-rank adventurer who dealt with that monster?"

"Yes, she killed the monster in one second with just one sword strike. She's really strong."

After sighing slightly, Alena came to Eve with the bag of gold coins.

"Then let's go, Miss Eve."

"Well, thank you for your help then."

Just like that, everyone left the Adventurer's Guild in a mighty procession and headed towards the Spring Courtyard. After they left, the Adventurer's Guild returned to its former tranquility. Others began to take on commissions one after another, and Mavis gradually became busy.

—·—·—·—·—·—·—

As they walked down the street, Ruthina introduced to Eve and the others the Spring Garden where they were going next.

"The Spring Courtyard is a restaurant opened by an elf elder. It has been here for a long time. The elves often go there to dine, and if there are any banquets, they will choose to hold them there. There are also foods specially modified for vampires, so Miss Eve can also enjoy them normally.

"Hey, is there such a thing? I haven't heard of it anywhere else."

Eve was a little surprised to hear Ruthina say this. After all, normally vampires can only eat blood products or foods with blood as the main ingredient.

"Well, I heard that it's a special food. The process is very complicated, but it only stays fresh for a few minutes, and it's not for sale. They only take some out in this situation, so that's why it's not very famous."

Ruthna replied after thinking about what she had learned.

"Is that so? Then I'll look forward to it a little bit~"

"Well, I won't let Miss Eve down."

As they were talking, the group had already arrived at the Spring Courtyard. The elves who had left earlier had basically set up the venue for the banquet and were placing various dishes on the tables and doing some finishing work.

A table that was obviously quite special had been placed in the center of the venue. It was probably prepared for Eve, Ruthna and the others.

Seeing the protagonist of this banquet arrive, everyone stood up and surrounded them with smiles, leading them to the main table and taking a seat. Then...

"Well then, to celebrate the safety of Rusina and the others, and the assistance of Miss Eve and the others, let's all drink!"

"Cheers~"

Although it was a toast, what was in their cups was not beer, but a specially blended fruit juice. It tasted sour and sweet, with a lot of fruit pulp mixed in it, and it smelled like a mixture of various fruits. Judging from Akana's expression, she quite liked the taste.

As for the food on the table, except for their table which was a little special, the tables of other people were mostly composed of various fruits, but there were also some staple foods such as biscuits and pasta.

As for the table where Eve was, there were more variations. Ilvia was eating biscuits in small bites as usual, looking quite enjoyable, while Akana poured another glass of juice and was tasting it carefully, trying to figure out what kind of juices were mixed in it.

Eve was eating the food that Ruthina had just mentioned, which was specially modified for the vampires. It tasted really strange, and she had no idea how it was made. It was a pity that she couldn't take some away.

At this time, Istina was chatting with several elf girls. She was constantly trying various fruits recommended by Ruthina and the others, and she seemed to be enjoying it very much.

The joyful atmosphere gradually reached its climax as the night deepened, and many people left their seats and joined Eve and the others.

Several elves who were on good terms with Ruthina and the others were surrounding them and teasing them, while some others came to Eve and the others out of curiosity and asked them all kinds of questions.

"Ms. Eve, how do you usually exercise?"

"What do S-rank adventurers usually do?"

Eve also smiled and answered a few questions at random.

On Ilvia's side, a few elves discovered that she particularly liked to eat biscuits, so they took out some elven biscuits they made and started feeding her, and Via naturally accepted them all.

Arcana chatted with several elves who also liked various drinks, and they were commenting on which juice they had tasted the best.

Istina was pulled up to play some traditional elf games. It was quite pleasing to the eye to see several beautiful girls talking and laughing together, but except for the girls present, no one else could enjoy it.

§ 29 The Banquet Ends [First Update]

"By the way, if we want to travel to the Elf Forest, where should we go?"

Suddenly Eve remembered their next destination, and now was a good time to ask the locals.

"Eh? Miss Eve, are you going to visit us next? The festival is still a few months away, right? Have the entry requirements been relaxed?"

The elves usually have very strict entry requirements, which blocks many people who want to go there. They only relax some of the requirements during routine festivals, so the elf girls around her seemed a little surprised when they heard Eve ask this.

At this time, there are still about nine months left before the festival. Since these elf girls have more contact with other races, they don't have such an outrageous view of time as to say there are only a few days left.

"Well, we have entry permits. We were planning to stay here for a day and then go through immigration processing tomorrow."

"Is that so? Then Miss Eve should visit several tribal capitals. These places are quite unique. Then you can go directly to the capital to participate in the festival."

"If you go to the elves from here, you can go directly to our forest elves' city of Siweier, but that place has long become a place where four elven tribes live together, right?"

As she spoke, the elf girl looked at her companions around her.

"Yes, it's one of the channels through which the elves contact the outside world. Moon elves, like the vampires, are nocturnal. I guess they'd get along well with Miss Eve."

"But the elves always have sunshine during the day. As a vampire, Ms. Eve shouldn't have any problems, right?"

One of them seemed to remember something and asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, I have some ways to avoid the sun. After all, I'm S-rank."

As Eve spoke, she showed off her muscles, but with her slender arms, it was completely useless.

"Ah! Also, Miss Eve, it's best not to go to Biluo in the future. It's a dangerous place with magical beasts. I heard that the magical beasts there have lived for a very long time."

"Yes, yes. When I was little, my mother threatened me that if I didn't obey, it would take it away and eat me."

"Is that so? Okay, I'll make a note of that. Thank you~"

Of course, Eve naturally did not intend to bypass that place, but was ready to play the role of knowing that there was a tiger on the mountain, but from the perspective of the Warcraft, it would probably be a disaster?

After all, this kind of magical beast that has lived for a long time might have information about shapeshifting magic, so I might as well ask it on the way.

In short, this monster is like a disaster that came from the sky when you were just sitting at home.

"But even though that place is a dangerous place for monsters, humans still occasionally sneak into the Elf Nation from there. I heard that they do this to capture the Elves and bring them back to the Human Nation."

"Yes, I heard from the sisters in the tribe that she was almost kidnapped when she was a child."

Listening to their discussions, Eve had some understanding. Needless to say, the people who committed this crime were the result of the joint efforts of the Kingdom of Wealth and the Land of Lawlessness. In fact, the victims were not only the elves, but the beastmen who were closer were also a hard-hit area.

The main reason for capturing elves is their appearance, to satisfy the desires of their lower bodies. As for the beastmen, they are sold as slaves because they are strong and durable.

The entire human race has been blamed for this incident because of these two scum groups.

It would have been fine if she hadn't counted. A closer look revealed that the human race, while being trapped in a hostile situation with the vampires and trolls, had also provoked the elves and orcs at the same time. This was because their energy was being diverted to the Far West Front. Otherwise, Eve felt that she had reason to suspect that the human race would be beaten up by these tribes joining forces.

Fortunately, due to the cheerful atmosphere around, everyone quickly jumped over this annoying topic and started talking about other things.

"Oh right! Let's write a thank-you letter for Miss Eve later. It might be useful over there."

Suddenly an elf girl clapped her hands and said.

"Eh?"

Seeing that Eve didn't understand what they meant, she continued to explain.

"If you bring the thank-you letters from other elves, Miss Eve can get some special treatment in some places, although it's only limited to the forest elves."

As she spoke, the elf lady took out a pen and paper and began to write and draw.

Special treatment. Speaking of which, she also has a token made from the trunk of a world tree. It seems that it is VIP treatment applicable to the entire territory?

Of course, even with the World Tree Token, Eve would not refuse their thank-you letters. After all, they were their tokens of appreciation, so she would just keep them as a souvenir.

After everyone at the banquet signed their names one after another, Ruthina handed the thank-you letter to Eve.

"Ms. Eve, thank you for your help this time. I wish you a happy time in the elf tribe~"

"Ah."

"Okay! Let's have one last toast!"
