Chapter 120
At the end of the previous world, Song Li'an had upset Jiang Yan.2
They had discussed many times before and agreed that when death came for one of them, the one left behind would suffer more. Therefore, all their plans were for Jiang Yan to leave first.0
One important reason was that Song Li'an was healthier than Jiang Yan. He often held the little old lady's hand, telling her how painful it would be to live in this world alone if she left him.3
However, one morning, Jiang Yan suddenly couldn't wake him up. Overwhelmed by immense grief, Jiang Yan was both angry and heartbroken, immediately ending her vacation.0
As fate would have it, this time her identity was that of a powerful Vampire Count.0
[Mission: Achieve the ending of being imprisoned by the lord and losing freedom.]1
Plot: You are the daughter of the Vampire Prince, tyrannical and willful in the Vampire Domain. By chance, you discover a human girl who has trespassed into the vampire realm. On a whim, you detain her privately and subject her to various torments. However, the human girl manages to survive in the castle.0
In the end, the girl's unyielding spirit moves the vampire lord. The lord pardons her, but your actions have repeatedly violated vampire laws, resulting in you being permanently confined to the castle by the lord.0
...1
When Jiang Yan first arrived, it was still fifteen years before the human girl's appearance, which marked the beginning of the mission.0
Jiang Yan was quite fascinated by her vampire identity, spending her days transforming between human form and little bat form. One moment she'd be hanging on the wall, the next fluttering to a tree branch, then twirling in front of a mirror...0
There was no other reason than the white little bat being too adorable, like a tiny Pomeranian with small fleshy wings, even more delicate and petite. With bright black eyes, a chubby little nose, clean and snow-white all over, only the ear tips, little nose, and tiny claws were pink.0
In the gloomy castle, the little Vampire Count was incredibly lively. But the elders and Blood Servants watched the little one's antics with extraordinary indulgence, unanimously possessing abundant patience for the little count.0
This was just the family's doting. As for Jiang Yan's status, it was of great significance. Her father was the prince of the Vampire Clan, the head of the family, possessing terrifyingly immense power, and Jiang Yan was his only daughter.2
Because his beloved wife was a human who had died a hundred years ago. As a result, Jiang Yan was appointed as a little count at birth, able to command a large number of subordinates.0
Vampires couldn't see the light of day or enjoy various foods. As time passed, Jiang Yan felt bored and started to miss that person.0
Only that person wasn't in the Vampire Domain. She had already used her count status to identify all living things in the domain.0
If not in the Vampire Domain, then only in the human world! Cross-species romance? Jiang Yan hesitated for a moment, thinking of the various tragic stories that could arise from this.0
Historically, it was after a long war with humans that vampires, having suffered heavy losses, were forced to retreat from the human stage and hide in the dark realm.1
The little count, always surrounded by admirers, suddenly felt a burning ambition to conquer humans.1
The Vampire Clan had no such intentions, including Jiang Yan's father, Prince Roderick. But they would never discourage any of the little darling's ideas. No matter how absurd the idea, they would offer support and praise.3
Of course, this was only for Jiang Yan, the adorable, spoiled little darling who had just turned one hundred years old and was super likable to vampires.3
So, as the mission was about to begin, in the year the protagonist was set to arrive, Jiang Yan had already gone out to conquer the human world twice!0
The Gate of the Realm of the Vampire Domain opened once every five years, each time remaining open for half a month.0
Jiang Yan's primary task was to find him, and then conquer the world.0
The first time she went out, Jiang Yan led a group of black bat subordinates with fierce determination, soaring over the Vampire Domain and freely gliding through human towns. Of course, this was in the thick of night.1
The dark mass of bats, carrying the unique dangerous pressure of the Vampire Clan, frightened the sensitive small animals into panicked flight. However, most citizens were already asleep, so it didn't cause much commotion.0
Jiang Yan led the bat army to search house by house, either flying in through unclosed doors or perching on glass windows to observe carefully.0
Finally—she found him. Only, he was a child who looked to be about ten years old.0
Not as tall as Jiang Yan, wearing a blue jacket, with fluffy, ash-brown tousled short hair, and naturally deep-set features. He had deep blue eyes, as profound and clear as the sea, somehow enchanting.3
The bats lured the child onto the street. Jiang Yan transformed from a little bat into a human.2
In the dead of night, a tiny white bat transformed into a girl with sharp little fangs. It was truly a heart-stopping sight.1
However, the child's reaction was somewhat unexpected. He seemed to have guessed Jiang Yan's vampire identity, but his face showed no sign of fear. A glimmer of admiration even flashed in his deep blue eyes.0
That calm and collected demeanor seemed at odds with his childish appearance.2
But by the time she found him, it was already the last day the Gate of the Realm was open. Jiang Yan thought about her gloomy castle and the homemade blood plasma and other foods there, feeling she couldn't yet take care of such a weak human.0
She had to abandon the idea of taking him back for now, planning to come back and kidnap him when he was older, the next time the Gate of the Realm opened.0
Jiang Yan asked for his name before leaving.0
The child stood there, his face still childishly tender, but his eyes contained the excitement of discovering something interesting. He controlled that delight and answered gentlemanly, "My name is Angus."0
But unfortunately, having obtained his answer, Jiang Yan transformed into a white little bat and led the bat army away.3
Angus stood there watching them disappear, quietly pondering why they had left so abruptly.0
