"Do not..."
Ludwig shook her head.
"It's not this kind of 'accompanying'..."
But she was powerless to change anything, and if this was the best possible outcome, then she could only accept it.
She will lose her freedom and become a caged bird forever. Even with Coco by her side, she can never go back to how she was before.
Everything stems from one's own weakness.
"One day...one day...this young lady will..."
She clenched her fists, suppressing the tears that were about to spill. She still didn't want to appear too weak in front of Ruo Keke.
"Come on, Coco, help me change my clothes."
She raised her hands and turned around.
"What's wrong? Come here. Didn't you say... you were going to help me change into a formal dress appropriate for my status?"
The girl smiled wearily.
"I...have never worn a real royal dress before."
When Coco reached out her hand behind her back, a familiar feeling surged into her heart in that instant.
The hundreds of days and nights spent with the silver-haired girl before him seemed to replay as if it were yesterday.
"..."
"I'm sorry... Miss."
she whispered.
The slight tremor emanating from Coco's arm went unnoticed by Ludwig.
In order to see what tomorrow might not even exist, the girls tried their best to hide their weakness.
...
...
...
call out--
call out!
The golden kitten, which glowed faintly even in the darkness, came running back as if its fur had been ruffled.
"Master, master!"
It was shouting in Yin Shang's mind through telepathy.
"Something terrible has happened, meow!"
Yin Shang, who was dozing off, was startled:
"Just say what's on your mind, don't make a fuss."
Reinhardt jumped back onto his shoulder in a panic.
“Master, didn’t you investigate someone before? I looked at his information with you back then!”
"I've investigated countless people..."
"No, it's the one you've been investigating recently! The one who belongs to the same church as you! He's also being held in this underground prison!"
Yin Shang was startled: "What did you say!"
hum-
Reinhardt shared fragments of memory with Yinshang.
"..."
"As expected...it's exactly as I predicted!" Yin
Entropy is shocking.
In the fragments of Reinhardt's memory that Yin Shang saw, the prisoner was the eldest son of the Yang family, whom he had been investigating in Bailing City and who had died five years prior.
Yang Qi, former priest of the West Side Church of Baling!
"He's still alive... he's not dead!"
Yin Shang slammed his fist against the wall.
"In this way, everything makes sense! Princess Yang Lingxi deceived the entire vampire clan and distorted the truth... In the past five years, countless 'historical events' that we know have been altered by her alone!"
"We must escape from here; we can't let the truth be revealed..."
...
Click, click, click.
"Hmph, where can you escape to?"
A black figure was barely noticeable in the already pitch-black corridor.
However, her blood-red eyes, which emitted a faint glow, still revealed her location to Yin Shang.
She stopped outside the iron bars, looked at Yin Shang, who had become a prisoner, and couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
"Where do you think this is? No guest imprisoned here has ever escaped."
Yin Shang's facial muscles twitched noticeably:
"Ha, look at the mess on my hands and feet. You call this kind of treatment...guest? You vampires are really full of nonsense."
he spat.
"Just like your so-called 'cooperation' with me, Ye Liuli!"
...
The girl unlocked the iron gate and walked in unhurriedly.
With a wave of her hand, she unlocked the chains that bound Yin Shang to the wall, leaving only the handcuffs on his hands to prevent him from resisting.
“Come, come with me. Lingxi... Ah, Her Majesty the Queen summons you.”
"Hmph, you want to silence me, huh?"
"It's very impolite to always assume malicious things about us vampires, human."
Yin Shang sneered:
"You colluded with her, tricking me step by step into your trap, making it sound so real. And I'm not even allowed to complain a little?"
Ye Liuli shrugged.
"Oh dear, you've misunderstood, human. I never said I would betray them."
She stepped forward and pinched Yin Shang's chin.
"Vampires have always preferred to solve problems in their own way. Now that you are our 'external aid,' you no longer have the right to refuse. From the moment you agreed to cooperate, you have already boarded our 'pirate ship.'"
She also gave a mocking, cold laugh.
"Come with me. It won't do you any good to keep her waiting."
...
"These wicked women... I really..."
As it turns out, Ludwig, whom Yin Shang still finds extremely unreliable, is actually the one he can trust the most. But she is clearly already in trouble.
"At least she is a vampire princess. If we can rescue her, there might still be a chance for things to turn around."
He gritted his teeth.
“Reinhardt, let’s wait until we meet the Princess before making any further decisions. We need to find out what she’s up to first. Then, we can find an opportunity to rescue that… young lady whose name I can never remember.”
“But Master, even I remember her name, it’s Ludwig…”
"Who cares about her?" Yin Shang said.
Chapter 68 Lingqiu
If Ludwig's previous vampire dress was merely a dress that resembled everyday wear, then what she was wearing now was a true aristocratic gown.
She truly deserves her reputation as a naturally beautiful vampire. Even with her appearance deeply vampire-like, she is still a beauty that is one in a million, according to both human and vampire aesthetics.
After a long period of dressing up, Ludwig was finally allowed to stand up and stand in front of the full-length mirror.
What came into view was a silver-haired girl wearing a red dress with black trim.
The sinister metal ornaments added to the unique allure of the vampire royal family, while the openwork back and tightly bound waist belt accentuated her perfect and slender curves.
The skirt, though not extravagant, barely reached her knees, but the intricate patterns and the weight of the lace pressed the skirt, which had no petticoat, down to her thighs, making her long legs appear and disappear beneath it.
Her long, silver-white hair was adorned with a semi-transparent ribbon tied into a lace headdress on one side, resembling a small veil hat, adding a touch of elegance to her look.
When she is crowned, the metal ring-shaped crown will be fixed to this.
...
"This
"Is it me?"
Ludwig could hardly recognize herself, and she forced a smile onto her haggard face.
"This outfit suits me very well."
Although she was reluctant to admit it, she still praised its exquisiteness.
"Why does it fit so perfectly, as if it were tailor-made for me?"
Ruo Keke bowed and said:
"At the secret request of the Vampire Council, I collected your dressing preferences and body data several months ago, and had the vampire craftsmen tailor-make this princess bedroom for you, along with a princess dress befitting your status."
The silver-haired girl paused for a moment, then smiled helplessly.
"Sure enough, even Coco's coming to my side was manipulated..."
The light in her eyes when she looked at the brown-haired maid was gone.
Now, she believes that no matter how stunningly beautiful she dresses up, she is nothing more than a caged bird that has lost its freedom, a puppet that will be manipulated by others forever.
"Come on, lead the way, Coco."
She followed the brown-haired maid out of the room, along the deep castle corridor, to meet her destiny.
Only by getting close to the eye of the storm can one find a way to stop it. She decided to take the risk and accept all the princess's arrangements.
"Before I completely let her control me... I must find a way to fight back against her."
...
...
...
Click.
On the last stretch of corridor leading to the throne room, Ye Liuli snapped off Yin Shang's handcuffs.
"What do you mean by that?" Yin Shang asked.
Ye Liuli yawned:
"Wearing this into the throne room for an audience is far too rude. Hah..."
Yin Shang understood the implication in her words. She meant that she wasn't worried at all about Yin Shang causing trouble; he would not only be unable to escape, but also unable to cause trouble in the throne room... This was evident from her relaxed and carefree expression.
"Okay, then..."
click, click, click—
The dull, crisp sound of heels striking the red carpet came from around the corner, growing louder as it approached.
The maid, who had kept her head down and remained silent, appeared first and led the way for the people behind her, seemingly oblivious to their presence.
