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

Chapter 19: Turnaround

Return with me alright? Dont you miss your home? Your family is waiting for you. Lan Yi used an amicable tone as she tried to methodically persuade her.

I INyau I want to stay with you mister~ Traces of red-orange that were reminiscent of the clouds at dawn appeared on the petite face of the cat-eared girl her face was so cute that Ji-Bai wanted to take a bite of it.

What the F**k?! Im not running a pet shop! Why would I trouble myself to raise a cat when I have no obligation to do so AT ALL? Whats more I cant even support myself right now let alone another person!

Mhm! You shouldnt keep your family waiting for you Little catLittle Miss I think you should let them send you home alright? Other than that bespectacled guy I believe that this big sister wont harm you. Ji Bai hurriedly said.

Oi! Whats that supposed to mean youngster?!

Listen to me. No matter who is with you human society is far more dangerous to you than anywhere else. How could following me be as pleasing as returning to your homeland? You have to understand that you have been here for quite some time now. Even if you dont think of yourself you still need to put yourself in your parents shoes no? They are probably worried sick about you right now. Ji Bai bent down as he spoke earnestly. He completely ignored Lin Tuo beside him who had leaped up in protest.

Nyaa~I dont have a daddy or mommy The small ears of the catgirl drooped down helplessly while dejection filled her small face.

Sorry. Upon seeing the downcast expression of the catgirl Ji Bai realized he had misspoken a trace of darkness appeared in his eyes.

What is your name little one? Lan Yi gently stroked the head of the catgirl.

Ke-er

Ke-er is it? Alright Ke-er since you are unwilling to return to your homeland do you want to follow me back to our headquarters? Lan Yi expressed her motherly tenderness towards her.

Ke-er blinked her large watery eyes. She looked at Lan Yi and then at Ji Bai by the corner before lowering her head silently.

Seems like this little girl really has taken a deep liking to you Lan Yi sighed she unhurriedly stood up and kneaded her temples in a dilemma.

Well permit me to verify once more. Youngster do you really not intend to join the Chivalric Order of the Moon? You have both mercy and courage within your soul. Perhaps you may find your beliefs as a result of this. Lan Yi didnt seem to be the type of person who loved pestering; Yet perhaps on the account of how Ke-er was unsociable with strangers she extended an olive branch towards Ji Bai once more.

Although this is a very tempting offer I will still have to decline. Ji Bai said in his normal expression.

In reality the element behind his refusal wasnt just limited to his difficult identity. It had partly to do with the creed he had previously undertaken too.

Other than a bit of difference between the essential chivalric spirits required of their knights the official chivalric groups had all adopted a zero-tolerance attitude towards demons. Rather than help an injured and helpless demon they were far happier with stabbing them from above.

From this pairs introductions Ji Bai was able to ascertain that the Chivalric of the Moon treated everyone equally. This also signified that there was a high possibility that they would be helping demons just like today it might be possible that they would even clash against other chivalric groups in some situations.

So what if they followed the path of the knight just as Lan Yi said? Just their ideology alone was at conflict with the rest of the chivalric groups let alone his personal creed. Furthermore he wasnt broad-minded enough that he would fight against humans for the sake of demons. With this being said however he didnt believe that the creed of the Chivalric Order of the Moon was wrong in his heart.

Ji Bai was momentarily at a loss as a result of rejecting their invitation twice in this short amount of time.

Very well then. We will think of something. You can leave first youngster. Lan Yi wasnt surprised in the least. She merely nodded her head before finally returning her focus and attention towards Ke-er.

Nyaa Nyaa Nyaa~ Ke-er didnt want to put Ji Bai in a spot either. Because of this she no longer said a word however the disappointment in her petite face was clear and obvious. Ji Bai gave a deep look at Ke-er who was sitting in a loli-like manner1 on a broken cotton jacket. He then averted his gaze onto Yi Lan. I will count on you.

Theres no need to worry you can be at ease. This is our responsibility. Lan Yi faintly said.

Ji Bai nodded his head before finally turning his body to walk towards the direction of the alley entrance. He was clueless as to what he should say his thoughts were in disarray as a complicated emotion loomed over him.

Ji Bai shook his head and expelled all of these emotions from his mind. He had already wasted too much time here and still had to figure out his next step: How to find a job.

YiLan Yi why didnt you finish explaining the benefits of our Chivalric Order? Lin Tuo quietly moved up next to her.

Hm? Have I overlooked something? Lan Yi looked at Lin Tuo in a weird manner.

Of course you did! The thing you overlooked is also one of the most important things! Lin Tuo said in an extremely serious manner. You forgot to tell him about the benefits of our organization! Not only is there a fixed allowance every month but we also have the five insurances and funds2 he was talking about! How could you forget such an important matter?

Lin Tuo said in a loud voice. It was unknown whether he did this intentionally or not.

Im still wondering what it is Well However it doesnt matter whether I expanded on these matters or not. A human who truly harbors a passionate knights heart wouldnt be bothered about such a small

Hmmm?! (Essential Factor Detected!) What did you just say?! Before Lan Yi could finish her words Ji Bai was looking at her with a hopeful expression. She was clueless when he suddenly turned his body over towards them she remembered that he was just about to walk out of the alley the last time she saw him.

Hmm? truly harbor a

No! Say the previous sentence!

The previous sentence? Lan Yi was dazed; The expression on Ji Bais face was worlds apart from what it was previously. To describe it aptly he seemed like a pug begging for food.

A fixed allowance every month we also have the five insurances and funds

Yes! Thats the sentence! Why didnt you say it earlier?! Uhm how much is the allowance approximately? Ji Bai had an ingratiating expression as he moved towards them. When compared to what happened previously it was almost as if he had completely become another person.

Its an amount that should be more than enough to cover the monthly living expenses of two adults. Lin Tuo butted in to explain.

Deal! Its decided! Say do you sign or use a seal stamp on the enrollment contract? Ji Bai patted his chest his demeanor and motivation was similar to a vanguard soldier in battle.

? But you already rejected us two times earlier. Lan Yi was extremely flabbergasted towards the sudden change in Ji Bais attitude.

Haaah Isnt that because you didnt explain it properly?! I still thought you were one of those evil cults that brainwashed impoverished commoners into doing your work for free! Havent you already clarified it clearly for me? In fact the misunderstanding is cleared up now! Oh thats right wheres the contract? Hurry up and let me sign it! Ji Bai had an impatient look on his face.

For some unknown reason Yi Lan suddenly had an urge to renege on her offer.
