"Alright, lovely girls. I, the Queen, have some good news to announce to you."
Xue Xiaolin rested her chin on her hand and gave a wicked smile.
"I have instructed Xue Xiaolin to apply for an in-depth internship at the Group Island. As an outstanding intern, she is qualified. I will also select three of you to accompany her to the Group Island..."
"Your work there is no different from now, just like now, rescuing your compatriots on the Group Island who have been brainwashed by humans and bringing them back to my side."
"Have patience and lie low, waiting for the right moment. When that time comes, you, these surprise troops, will be the final straw that breaks the camel's back."
Several vampire girls spoke up:
"Your Majesty, if someone achieves outstanding results, may they also receive a reward from you?"
"Can I also have you possess my body, just like Rin did?"
"Your Majesty..."
...
"Xue Xiaolin" interrupted them with a slight smile.
"Alright, as long as you work hard and achieve outstanding results, you'll be rewarded. You can even upgrade the level and strength of your 'Blood Puppets'!"
Upon hearing this, they cheered softly:
"In the eternal night, the vampires will never perish. Long live the Queen!"
...
hum-
As that powerful consciousness dissipated, Xue Xiaolin returned to normal.
She closed her eyes, still savoring the "wonderful feeling" of being controlled by the Queen.
"Your Majesty...hehe..."
Her companions complained, displeased:
"Little Lin is so cunning! Next time you must let me do it!"
"Yeah, yeah, you get all the good things."
"Her Majesty the Queen has never used my body before!"
Xiao Lin put her hands on her hips and said, "This is something I won through my own abilities. Her Majesty the Queen is wise and powerful, and she would never favor me."
"Alright, alright, everyone go back to your posts. If we are exposed, Her Majesty the Queen will no longer favor us."
...
...
...
"Woo-woo..."
Ludwig woke up groggily, sat up, and realized that Ruoke had been waiting beside her for a long time.
"Oh, Coco, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
She stretched and pretended to have had a good nap.
"Hmm... I slept very well."
"Coco, is there something you want to tell me?"
Coco nodded: "It's a very important thing."
"The Human Union Council has invited the Vampire Queen to a public meeting, demanding that she address the recent accusations made by humans and vampires against the Vampire Royal Court and the Vampire Council, and provide an answer to both vampires and humans."
...
Ludwig pouted: "At a time like this? Humans are really being ridiculous!"
Coco shook her head: "There's nothing we can do, Lulu. If you don't show up, everyone in the vampire royal court will fall further into a disadvantageous position in public opinion, and you will be seen as someone who is afraid to attend out of fear of punishment. Moreover, since you became queen, you have never appeared in a major event, and the late King Siriot hardly ever appeared either. You really need to make a public appearance to stabilize the hearts of the vampires."
...
Ludwig sat up and sighed.
"Sigh, let's go then. This queen isn't intimidated. But... it's necessary to give humans a taste of their own medicine; that's in line with my style."
"Humans are definitely trying to use this meeting to intimidate me. Hmph, I won't let their little tricks succeed."
"First, I need to temporarily change my image."
She kissed Ruo
Coco gently hugged her cheek.
"Come, Coco. Give me some blood... your blood, the blood of my kin, which belongs only to me."
...
"Hiss...Gurgle..."
As Ludwig ate, her beautiful body, hidden beneath her loose nightgown, visibly grew.
She used the blood of her kin for another purpose: to temporarily alter the eternally unchanging bodies of vampires.
Her figure became fuller, and her height and appearance seemed to have grown by almost ten years. Her prominent curves and long legs gave her a mature aura.
She drew inspiration from Lingxi's "growth," but she is now even more so than Lingxi.
When Lingxi had grown up, she could still be considered a young girl, but now, Ludwig, who has temporarily "grown up," is an absolute mature woman, with all traces of her former childishness gone.
"Hehe... My original girlish appearance can't intimidate these cunning and shrewd humans. Only this mature appearance can keep them from acting unreasonably in front of me."
"Humans...always have a strange arrogance and contempt for things younger than themselves. Although I am actually older than them, I just look young."
The silver-haired "older sister" walked to the mirror and looked at her mature self.
"Hmm... Even if I become an adult, I'm still this pretty. Although not being cute anymore is a big disadvantage."
In fact, she had no complaints about her teenage body shape, because a cute teenage girl could make anyone lower their guard. She would not be wary of people because she was too mature, nor would she be looked down upon because she was too young.
But now, she needs a posture that can command respect from human nobles in order to perfectly demonstrate and showcase her queenly authority.
"Go to the meeting looking like this. Coco, you have to come with me too."
Coco was taken aback: "Huh? Me?"
She pulled Ruo Keke over: "Of course, I can't just go to the meeting alone, can I?"
She gave a mischievous smile.
"Oh, Coco has gotten so short, let your big sister hug her."
Phew.
Gurgle.
"Stop it, Lulu! Waaah—"
Chapter 183 Arrogance
Geneva, Switzerland.
The European headquarters of the Human Union Council is located here. After discussions with the Vampire Queen, both sides made concessions and chose this location for the meeting.
Since the only true key figure in this meeting is the Vampire Queen, securing her attendance is crucial for the meeting to proceed smoothly.
...
For most of the human leaders in the Joint Council, this meeting marked their first face-to-face contact with the vampire leadership. Previously, their communication with the vampire council had been limited to video calls at most.
After all, these high-ranking officials who hold positions of power are still very wary of such "man-eating" monsters.
Moreover, this meeting was with the supreme ruler of the vampires—the vampire queen—who had never communicated with humans before.
Therefore, after receiving news that the vampire queen had accepted the invitation to attend the meeting, they naturally laid out a trap and made preparations early on, intending to give this vampire queen, who lived deep in the shadows, a taste of her power.
“She said she would arrive at the main entrance of the headquarters building at dusk and nightfall,” an official said, looking around.
"But it's been dark for a while now, and the surrounding area has been cleared out long ago. There's absolutely no sign of anyone approaching."
Another councilor sneered, "Ha, is she getting stage fright?"
...
Hoo, ho—
"I've kept you waiting, humans."
A melodious female voice rang out from the sky, and the humans on the ground who were preparing to "welcome" her looked up, only to be shocked and wide-eyed.
A bewitching and elegant silver-haired woman appeared in the sky, perfectly aligning with the rising moon.
Two jet-black wings unfurled behind her, allowing her to float gracefully in the air before slowly descending—
Her wide, jet-black wings seemed to obscure the moonlight, making her appear like a fallen demon god descended upon the world.
She landed gently on the ground, her wings quickly folding away without even stirring up a speck of dust.
She then gracefully tossed her hair aside, her blood-red eyes haughtily gazing at the humans who had been "waiting for a long time."
call--
The silver-haired woman's wings transformed into black mist, swirling and coiling around her body before coalescing into a young maid beside her.
The maid gracefully curtsied to the human councilors before her, clearing her throat as she said:
"The Vampire Night Queen, Ludwig von Nacht, has arrived."
...
"The leader of a mere monster, putting on airs and calling himself a queen."
A member of parliament whispered
Muttering to himself, he stepped forward and said:
"Vampire Queen, please follow us. You will need to go through security checks, a body search, and a series of registration procedures before you can enter the venue..."
...
"No need."
Ludwig lifted her skirt and stepped onto the stairs, heading towards the main entrance. The peacekeeping soldiers on both sides immediately looked at her warily.
"I am a little late, and I'm sure I've kept you waiting. These tedious matters will only waste time. Let's get started on the meeting as soon as possible, humans?"
...
That arrogant member of parliament, who was used to bossing others around, immediately raised his voice in an annoyed tone when he saw the Queen's lack of cooperation:
"How dare you! In human territory, you must abide by human rules. What do you take this place for!"
The Queen's high heels tapped lightly on the stone steps, and she stopped.
She glanced back and gave a cold smile.
"You humans... haven't you followed the rules of the vampire race either? You really didn't give me any face at my coronation ceremony."
The maid beside the vampire queen also gave the officials a cold glance:
"It is already a great honor for you that Her Majesty the Queen, who is so busy with state affairs, can take the time to play house with you. Don't push your luck, humans."
...
The congressman was furious: "You—"
As the Queen and her maids continued to approach the main gate as if they were oblivious, the fear on the faces of the guards and peacekeepers on both sides became increasingly apparent.
Ludwig gave a cold laugh.
she knows.
Ultimately, these human elites are severely out of touch with the masses, still unable to see reality, and continue to regard the now ubiquitous vampires as inferior monsters and outcasts...
Especially her, the "leader of the monsters".
Humans intended to give her "special treatment" at this meeting, to control her like a caged beast, so that they could speak to her "equally".
Therefore, her abrupt walk through the main gate naturally terrified this group of arrogant and ignorant humans.
