After Taken as a Prisoner of War, the Vampire Queen Turned Me Into a Vampire and Made Me Her Daughter

Chapter 98: Fangs

Early morning.

Scraping noises from fabrics rubbing at each other resounded as if someone was rummaging for something.

With his consciousness still hazy Ji Bai instantly opened his eyes. Even in an easy and comfortable environment he still carried a certain wariness towards his surroundings.

He saw a petite cherry-colored silhouette sitting beside a small wooden wardrobe arranging some items.

Ji Bai let go of his raised vigilance.

Keer?

Oh my! Mr. Ji Bai is awake?

Mhm and what are you doing?

I am arranging the clothes for Mr. Ji Bai. These are already dry so Keer is helping by folding and putting them in your wardrobe~ As usual a therapeutic smile hung on her face.

Oh I can handle these trifling matters by myself. You can just leave those to me in the future. Ji Bai reckoned that it was time to get out of bed for him as well. So he grabbed some clothes and personal items lying on top of his bedside cabinet and shoved them under his blanket.

Its alright~ This is what Keer is here for~ You can find your breakfast on the dining table~ Now Keer wants to go to the public bath to tidy up her body so shes going to excuse herself. Keer fiddled her apron in an adorable manner and did a slight bow.

I got it. You can go. Within ten seconds an orderly dressed Ji Bai had climbed up from his mattress to nod towards her.

He guessed that it had something to do with the nature of her race. A child that was very fond of cleanliness Keer had taken responsibility for each and every household duty in their home and was meticulous when it came to hygiene management.

While Ji Bai wasnt sure if he was overthinking it he had always felt that Keer was overly polite towards him. It was to the extent that it made him feel like there was a layer of glass separating them.

When he put more thought into it he concluded that it couldnt be helped. No matter the circumstances it must be awkward for a small girl to live together with an adult male. It was already good enough that she didnt turn her back on him.

Even though today fell on a weekend Ji Bai was not the slightest bit idle.

He felt the need to purchase some equipment as sudden and inevitable occurrences always happened whenever he picked up his equipment on the battlefield. It also was a dishonorable act to steal the equipment of the deceased.

Moreover he had always felt somewhat uneasy without a weapon beside him.

But sadly it couldnt be helped due to his finite assets; After he had paid the installment from the damages caused at the lounge and deducted his daily expenses the amount that remained was pitiably little.

This wasnt some Xuanhuan-Wuxia novel where one could just casually walk on the street and bump into an old man who would forcefully instill some rare martial-art techniques on you.

Neither would developments such as the magical appearance of a precious unpolished gem that no one had ever heard of nor would the cheap auction of a divine artifact take place here.

One got what one paid for. It was unrealistic to cut down demons using a cheap and showy metal blade that one got from a casual bid.

At the very least the metal used to cast the weapon must be made out of molybdenum or have molybdenum mixed in.

But this was only the minimum requirement since Molybdenum was the least powerful metal in theDark Metalcategory.

As for weapons or firearms made up of ordinary metal their offensive power was so weak that they were incapable of even cutting the body hair of a demon.

Dark Metals. As types of metal corroded by dark matter they were the only thing that was capable of dealing damage to demons.

Dark metals are categorized by the amount of dark matter within them. For example Molybdenum the metal with the lowest amount of dark matter only contained less than one percent of dark matter.

Above that the quality of materials was listed upward as follows: Catalpa metal Profound Metal Precious Metal Saint Steel Lacquered Metal Lustrous Metal.

The previous sword Ji Bai possessed the Sacred Sword had been forged by directly using Saint Steel. Moreover it hadnt been crafted by the hands of man.

To entrust a treasure like saint steel to a human blacksmith was simply a reckless waste of resources.

However all of this was no longer important. Heavens Abundance had already been placed on display in the imperial capitals museum as a part of their collection. He would need to buy a ticket if he wished to see his old companion again.

And why was a conflict so harmful to ones wallet?

Because ofDark Metals. Not only were they uncommon but the forging techniques that humans possessed were also in their infancy. That made the metal difficult to handle with the possibility that a certain mishap might ruin the metal completely.

As such one can imagine how difficult it was for a competent knight to get a sword that suited them. Moreover that was even excluding the number of weapons lost or destroyed in a battle. What happens if one were to factor this in too?

Thus weapons were very important. This was also the case for high-level knights. Stories of experts fighting using tree branches they had casually picked up was practically impossible and only served as fables used to coax children.

An army of juggernauts wasnt something someone could buy with money. Furthermore Ji Bai was still penniless.

Even Ji Bai was clueless as to how many swords he had broken before he had received Heavens Abundance.

But first he had to leave the school grounds.

In reality Hope Elementary School was situated on a different plane of existence. In order to fool people they had simply set-up the teleportation point inside the toilet of a certain abandoned building in Falling Origin District.

He wasnt sure about the identity of the omnipresent being responsible for this magnum opus; It was even capable of creating an environment suitable for living organisms to live on a separate plane.

How much is this sword?

You have a good eye lad! This sword was actually crafted by this store with all our passion! Its a robust greatsword that was entirely crafted with molybdenum and is all you need to defend yourself! All you need is twenty silver coins and it can be yours! Said the shop owner in a tone filled with confidence.

Are there any cheaper alternatives?

When it came to the current Ji Bai twenty silver coins were an astronomical figure.

Ohh then itd be this long spear. Only the tip of it was forged with molybdenum and its price is roughly around 5 silver coins.

Is there anything even cheaper

The weapons Ji Bai was most proficient with were naturally two-handed longswords. This type of sword demanded the most out of its user and had a hefty price tag. The latter part was the more important point in Ji Bais thoughts.

After a series of downgrades and back-and-forth haggling Ji Bai walked out the weapon store carrying an impure two-handed longsword that contained a smidgen of molybdenum.

This time Ji Bais entire savings had been completely spent. But he had finally gotten a sword so he wasnt particularly fussy about it.

With a bit of luck this sword might be able to last for a while.

As the blazing midday sun hung over the street a conspicuous silver-grey figure attracted Ji Bais attention.

The parasite? Has that woman gone out to purchase some goods too? Forget it its best to not get myself involved.

With his business finished Ji Bai decided to turn around and leave.

Can Missus hold on a moment please?

Is something the matter sire? Lin came to a halt while walking on the street. She then turned her head and emotionlessly looked at the blue-haired youth who had called out to her.

Showing a mysterious smile Gordon took down his western-style hat and revealed his face whose looks were absolutely within the realms of handsomeness.

We dont seem to be acquainted with each other. Said Lin emotionlessly.

Mhm this is the first time we met But I have always felt that I have a strong affinity with you. May I know your name Miss?

Lin.

Well then Miss Lin. This humble self wishes to invite you to a meal and discuss some matters. I wonder if Miss Lin will do me the honor of attending?

Im afraid Im pressed for time.

Pressed for time? What sort of matters are capable of forcing Miss Lin into such a hurry?

Personal matters. Lin slightly knitted her eyebrows.

As someone who liked to keep a set distance away from others Lin disliked strangers getting too overly close with her. This was especially the case for people incessantly pestering her even when she had hinted repeatedly that she didnt want to talk to them.

Private matters Haha Miss Lin is very unique shes different from the girls Ive met before. Spoke Gordon with cadence.

Is that so?

Yes for instance Miss Lin your overly white skin Silver hair is something that doesnt exist in humans and your hair doesnt seem to be dyed. The most unique thing however is the aura youre giving out As he spoke up to this point Gordons smile gradually turned cold.

Is it possible to allow this humble self to check whether there are any sharp fangs in your mouth Miss Lin??

The type of fangs that belong to a vampire
