"Don't call me 'little sister,' I don't have a brother like you."
Solid was furious.
"You betrayed Brother Yin and used me; it's unforgivable."
“Now, I am not the same as before... I can truly protect my brother Yin... and clean up his mess because he made bad friends.”
With a sharp cry, she drew a long, golden lightsaber straight from her chest. As the light faded, it revealed its true form—
Holy Sword - Sword of Wandering.
She held the two-handed greatsword in her hands as easily as if it were a one-handed sword.
Because—she was the spirit of this sword!
"Brother Yin's wish is my wish..."
"I will always stand by his side and make the real devil who has committed all kinds of evil pay the price."
...
“Solid…”
A cold smile crept across his face as the car rolled through the dust.
"...Very good, the brat is really lucky."
...
...
...
At the same time, the eternal Pure Land.
While a week may pass outside, several years may have passed here.
Hiriote is worried that Ludwig will cheat on her, while Coco is worried that Ye Liuli will cheat on her...
Anything can happen in a few years. Who can guarantee that the women they cherish won't be taken away?
But as it turned out, their worries were completely unnecessary.
Because of the willow
Unable to bear Ludwig's presence, and with Ludwig unable to move for long periods due to her weakened body, they entered a state of "slumber" unique to vampires, waking up only once every year.
In this way, we can ensure that our minds are not excessively worn down, which could lead to forgetting and memory loss.
"Aww... Little Shirley, you're back!"
Ye Liuli sat up in bed, feeling groggy. It seemed like she had slept for more than seven or eight months.
"How is it?" she asked with concern.
Hiliott gave a bitter smile: "My affairs are going smoothly, but as for Ludwig, I'm worried about whether she can handle it."
Ye Liuli remained silent for a moment, then snorted.
“If she can’t even bear the weight of the truth, then she can’t be a qualified queen. This can also be considered a test for her.”
...
Hilliot nodded thoughtfully.
"That's right. Come, let's uncover the truth for her."
"Hehe, I'm a little reluctant to say goodbye to this long-lost healthy body."
"From now on... I'll have to rely on you all."
Chapter 150 Test
A moment later, in Hilliot's bedroom.
"Hilriot" opened her sleepy eyes, awakened from a long slumber.
Because she found this immobile body too troublesome, whenever she wanted to communicate, she would simply summon the "Moon Shadow Witch," project her consciousness into it, and use this translucent ghostly girl as her mouthpiece.
When she saw that both "Ludwig" and Rokoko had returned, she immediately wore an expression of "finally relieved":
"You guys are finally back! I've been sleeping here for... almost ten years? Anyway, about a year. I was so bored!"
Coco rolled her eyes and said, "...When will you ever get the point right? Shouldn't we be asking the former Queen how things are going?"
The Moon Shadow Witch smiled slightly:
"Hehe, with the Eternal Queen's temperament, why would she come back if she couldn't handle it?"
Ludwig snorted:
"Don't act like you know me so well, little one."
...
Ludwig explained the events of the past few days to the Moon Shadow Witch, who nodded thoughtfully.
"Oh...I see...thankfully, I didn't give myself away."
As if remembering the real point, she quickly asked:
"Oh, right! Have you figured out anything about my background?"
...
Ludwig replied:
"Not only do we have a clue, we've even figured it out completely."
She pointed to her forehead.
"I will keep all the truth in this body's mind. Rather than me clumsily telling you, it's better to switch back and read it myself later."
"However, in the spirit of being responsible to all vampires, I, the former queen, still have to warn you—"
Her expression turned serious.
"Knowing this will cause unimaginable damage to your worldview. It will completely overturn everything you have known about being a vampire until now."
"If you don't make it through and learning the truth causes irreversible damage to your mind... then it means you can no longer become the queen of the vampires."
...
The petite Moon Shadow Witch gave an arrogant snort, quite like the original owner of this appearance.
“Eternal Queen, since I have proposed to succeed you... it means that I am prepared for the consequences.”
"Let's just consider this a test of whether I'm qualified to be king. I know that many of you have doubts about my ability to shoulder this great responsibility..."
"I want to become the new vampire queen. This is not a joke, nor is it an empty statement."
"This world is gradually becoming intolerant of vampires, and the ideal life is becoming increasingly unattainable. I am not like you, someone who cares about vampires and wants to become queen... I just want to vent my anger."
She smiled slightly.
"To vent...the anger of vampires being bullied by humans. Don't we vampires all have this thought to some extent?"
“As a mediator for the vampires, I have witnessed countless sufferings that humans have brought to the vampires. How can I guarantee that one day such suffering will not befall me?”
"Therefore, I want to create a world that no longer needs vampire mediators. That is the only reason I want to become queen."
Her argument was logical and well-founded, and difficult to refute.
All I can say is that this guy's sharp tongue is something that quiet girls like Ruo Keke and the Eternal Queen can never handle.
Ludwig waved her hand.
"Hmph, there's no point in saying more. Whether you can become queen or not, you have to pass your own test first."
"If you can still stand firmly on the side of the vampires after knowing your own background... then you are qualified to become a vampire queen."
“Take me for example. I can never let go of the past. For thousands of years, I’ve only thought I had let go.”
"Even though I've let go of the past now, I no longer possess the mindset and power to lead the vampires. Now, I'm just an ancient relic from a thousand years ago... a pathetic person who wants to end her queenly life as soon as possible but can't do anything."
The former vampire queen smiled bitterly as she gazed at the Moonshadow Witch, as if waiting for her to make her final decision.
...
“I am ready,” the Moon Shadow Witch replied solemnly.
Upon hearing this, the former vampire queen sighed softly.
"Then let's prepare to begin the ceremony."
"Everything I leave in this body will test your soul... whether you can bear the weight of a queen... whether you can become a vampire queen."
...
...
With the help of Ye Liuli and Ruo Keke, they prepared for the ceremony more easily than before.
Under the crimson light, the souls of the two silver-haired girls began to return to their original bodies.
"hiss..."
Ludwig's soul began to leave Siriot's body, and the Moon Shadow Witch also temporarily dissipated because she lost her physical body.
She will remain in a state without a physical body for some time, because she must wait for Hilliot's soul to return before she can return to her own body.
At this moment, Ludwig's soul looked at her body, within which awaited her not only powerful queenly authority, but also the revelation of the mystery of her origins—
There was a time when she also frantically searched for the truth about her origins.
Ludwig has not known who she is since she awoke a century ago.
So, after awakening as a vampire, she spent most of her time on one thing: figuring out who she really was.
She never had a past as a human being; for her, she simply wanted to know where she came from.
"Living without knowing who you are is worse than being dead."
This has become one of the reasons why she has survived to this day.
Although everything that makes up her life is "Ludwig the vampire girl", her past as a human is equally important to her.
Because, even though it no longer exists, that self as a human being is still "self".
Whether it's Ruoko or Siriote, the obsession with "self" is just as strong for any vampire.
Ludwig lived a mediocre life in Chongchuan City for decades, gradually losing motivation and confidence in her endless search.
Furthermore, the corruption of modern technology led her to naturally give up searching for her origins and live a peaceful and low-key life in the shadows of human society as an ordinary vampire.
But now, she is caught up in a series of conspiracies and vortexes, embarking on the path to becoming queen.
Now, she is only one step away from the truth about her origins, and whatever the truth may be, she is determined to find out.
If this past matter can be resolved, then this decades-long unfinished "mediation commission" that I entrusted to myself can also be brought to a complete end.
Chapter 151 Bullying the King
"Alright, it's your turn, Ludwig."
"...Um."
Upon hearing Siriot's voice, Ludwig's soul responded softly before swaying and slipping into her own body.
...
The light of the ceremony gradually faded, signifying that their souls had returned to their respective places.
Hilliot slowly opened her eyes. Although she was back in this weak body, she felt much more relaxed than before.
After all, the queen's powers, which would have placed a huge burden on her mind and body, have now been handed over to the next queen.
With Ye Liuli's help, Hiriote sat up and looked at Ludwig, who was still unconscious in the ritual array.
Hiriote called softly, "...Ludwig?"
...
"hiss...!"
Unexpectedly, the silver-haired girl suddenly raised her head and widened her eyes.
A strange black and red light burst forth from her forehead, gradually revealing some kind of rune!
