Reincarnated into a New World As a Vampire

The journey was long just as Aldritch was told. There was nothing of particular interest, but if anything, the nights were always enjoyable. Somehow, Aldritch never got tired of Lina, but even he was starting to think that giving her a break for at least one day was worth it. After a while, he had developed a little soft spot for her and didn't just see her as a means to an end.

"We're getting close, master. The walls are now visible." Olgud reported.

Throughout this entire time, he had been made to wonder around the surroundings while Aldritch and Lina got busy. There was no way after all their different intense sessions that the other passengers didn't hear anything, but Aldritch didn't care much of it.

Around noon, the sun was high in the sky and the heat from it resembled that of summer. They had just passed the city wall a couple minutes ago before Aldritch decided to look out the curtains. The train made its way to the station where the passengers can get down and then find their way to wherever they were headed.

Aldritch peeped out the curtains to see the scenery and how the city looked. He wasn't expecting anything too fancy, but then again, he had no idea what a city would look like in a fantasy world, at least not first hand.

Unlike what he imagined, the streets and aesthetic of the place resembled that of Tulgga. The buildings weren't anything special and just looked normal, with some standing independently for the most part while others clustered around. To say the least, it wasn't looking that different from the town he had seen.

They soon arrived, and once everything was processed, they were allowed to depart their separate ways.

Once Aldritch and the two with him came out of the train, the light was almost blinding as they had been living in much dimmer and darker environment for an extended period of time throughout their entire travel.

'It feels extra hot standing under direct sunlight… staying inside for too long cannot be good for sure.' Aldritch thought to himself as he adjusted his cloak slightly. Even while wearing the cloak, he could still feel the heat. 'I don't think vampires sweat, let's get out of here first.'

They were all dressed in black cloaks to hide from the sun, not because it would kill them, but it just burnt a little after some time.

Without saying a word, Aldritch started walking and the two behind him followed along quietly. Before he could think of doing any other thing, he first needed to get a place for them to lodge in.

Now, that was easier said than done, as it would seem that the inns were not around the station. They had been walking for at least seven minutes already trying to find any sign of an inn, but to no avail. There surely was no way Aldritch would continue like this, in fact, he should have done it sooner.

Right there on the street where a few people made their way towards wherever they were headed, Aldritch called the attention of a middle aged man who was just about to walk past them.

"Excuse me, sir?" Aldritch called.

The man looked suspiciously, hesitating at first, but after scanning the surroundings and seeing that there were people walking about, at least, enough of them, he decided to stop and pay attention to what the young man before him had to say.

"How may I help you?" He asked, making sure to keep his distance and not getting too close to the three cloaked figures.

"Yes…" At that very moment, Aldritch's hand reached for the cloak covering his face, pulling it back a bit so that his face could be seen. Of course, the man would want to see the face of whoever was inside, and that was all Aldritch could ask for. Once the man looked Aldritch in the eye, he fell under his command.

Aldritch used his skill, 'Minor Compulsion'. Immediately, the man fell into a trance-like state and Aldritch didn't waste any time giving his command.

"Take us to the nearest inn." He said. Once he said that, it didn't take up to three seconds for the man to return back to a more active self. Without even saying a word, he said to them, "this way," and led the way back the direction he came from. The three behind him followed without any other word spoken.

After a short walk, they arrived before an Inn, and a pretty decent looking one at that.

"Here's it." The man said. Without response, Aldritch and the others walked into the inn, leaving the man alone outside. After a few seconds, he returned to his senses, confused on how he got there. Last he remembered, he was on his way elsewhere, and he definitely wasn't on this particular road at all. Confusion was written on the man's face, but then again there was no other reason he could draw.

After a minute or so, he moved on with his day, with that strange feeling hanging over his chest.

Within the inn, Aldritch made his way to the receptionist table, or at least what looked to be that. There was a young lady behind the desk who welcomed him warmly, and even then, she seemed a little… scared? It was quite apparent that cloaks aren't a norm around here, or at least not the type Aldritch and his companions wore.

"I'd like three rooms of decent quality for myself and my companions." Aldritch pulled down his hood, revealing his face. As soon as the lady laid her eyes on his face, her cheeks brightened and words didn't escape her lips.

'Wow, is he a noble? He looks so charming…' She was lost in thoughts for a little bit but soon regain her composure and got to work.

Aldritch got three rooms for each person, and it also didn't cost him much to do so, just a few silver which he paid. It was only that much because he requested for something of good quality.

They were escorted to their rooms and given the room keys respectively to each.

"You two get some rest for now." Aldritch ordered, to which they followed without question.

Once he went into the room, he found the quality to be quite nice, though not comparable to the one at Greer's, it was still very good. There was also a small room that seemed to be for bathing, but there was nothing inside.

'Come to think of it, there was also something similar at the milf's inn.' Not thinking of it much, he walked to the window, and since the rooms were on the second floor of the building, he could get a little overhead view of the surroundings.

'So this is the capital? Doesn't seem like much.' He thought to himself. But even then, he could see that the buildings stretched as far as his eye allowed him to see before his vision was cut off by taller buildings and the likes. 'How big is this place exactly?' Back at Tulgga, he could still see the other side of the town wall, but here, he couldn't see anything.

There sure was some work to do if he planned to know anything about where he was.

"This is going to be interesting."
