The First Vampire

Newborn babies are usually ugly.

But certainly not enough to scare the nurse with vast midwifery experience.

However, holding the baby girl in her arms, she couldn’t help but tremble.

Because the baby girl didn’t cry.

The nurse lifted the baby girl by her feet, upturning her to repeatedly pat her back, but it was all in vain.

The delivery room fell into silence.

The nurses and maids here certainly were experienced “hands” at childbirth. They may not have understood the exact scientific principles behind why a newborn should cry out loud at birth. But there was one thing they all knew clearly-

Infants that do not cry, are usually stillborn!

Colin stopped the doctor mechanically patting the baby, ordering, “You can leave now.”

The doctors, as if they had obtained a pardon, quickly saluted and retreated, seemingly fearing that Colin would suddenly change his mind.

At this time, Isa had already fainted, but that was just due to exhaustion, there was no danger to her life.

What Colin was genuinely worried about was his newborn daughter.

Although at the time of ordering the doctors to perform a caesarean section, he had already made the “greater good” decision, aware that his daughter, under the circumstance of an unstable bloodline, might find it very hard to survive after suddenly leaving her mother’s womb.

But when he looked at the tiny, wrinkled life in front of him, that feeling of blood-connection still shook Colin’s mind, and he could not control himself.

At this moment, the only thing he was thinking about was – save her, at all costs!

However, what surprised him a bit was that his child with Isa was not of the Blood Clan.

So, Colin immediately wondered, if he were to transform her into a Blood Clan member now, could he save her from this near-death state?

However, he hesitated for a moment, concerned that if he bit her now, he would turn his daughter into a blood slave, not a Bloodline.

Because Colin could only transform Knights into Bloodline.

Obviously, this newborn baby girl was not a knight, even if a Priest was brought in for baptism, it would be too late.

But Colin still only hesitated for a moment, then bent down and bit her.

Even if this child became a blood slave, it’s still better than being a corpse.

However, the course of events once again surprised Colin. When he bit into his daughter’s tiny neck and had taken in a little bit of her blood, he unexpectedly felt a sucking force from her wound!

Overjoyed, Colin knew that this was a unique process of the initial bloodline transformation, this sucking force could not occur in a blood slave conversion.

But the problem was, his daughter was not a knight, so how could she meet the conditions for initial possession?

Could it be her unique bloodline?

Colin suddenly realized that perhaps the trigger for initial possession was not occupation but the bloodline.

Could it be that the bloodline of a knight has some connection with the Phoenix Bloodline of the High Elf Royalty?

While deep in thought, Colin’s fresh blood gushed through his tusks into the baby’s body.

Slowly, thin wisps of blood-colored smoke rose from their bodies, these smoke wisps forming into mysterious and intricate patterns in the air, like living things.

As if in a daze, a dream-like lingering sound echoed in Colin’s ears.

…

Outside the Half-Elf Palace, the fight was still in progress.

But the Blood Knight Army was now obviously gaining the upper hand, continually pressurizing and shrunk the Silver Moon Guards’ space, meanwhile, attempting to salvage the on-fire granary, so as to prevent the fire from spreading.

But abruptly, a delicate figure appeared in front of the palace gate.

“Halt!” A Blood Knight Army officer rode forward and ordered her to stop.

Even though the half-elf woman in front of him seemed frail, powerless, and posed no threat, her calmness in the face of the Blood Knight Army after navigating the chaotic Silver Moon City to stand in front of the Palace, indicated that this half-elf woman was indeed extraordinary.

“Sir, I am the High Priestess of Silver Moon City’s Temple of Destiny and would like to request an audience with Count Angler.” Trissley revealed her face beneath the veil, her voice ringing clear.

The officer did not recognize Trissley, and her stunning beauty under her veil momentarily mesmerized him, but he swiftly regained his composure, maintaining the cold indifference befitting a tough army officer, and said,

“I’m sorry, High Priest Sir, the Count has ordered that no one is allowed to enter the Half-Elf Palace!”

Upon hearing this, Trissley did not give up, “General, this matter is related to the life of Her Majesty the Queen and her unborn child. Please make an exception.”

The military officer frowned and hesitated for a moment, “Please wait.”

With that, he rode back into the palace.

Before long, the palace gate opened again, and Knight Logh rushed to Trissley, questioning, “You’re saying that Her Majesty the Queen and her unborn child are in danger?”

“Yes,” Trissley said firmly, “if I am not mistaken, Her Majesty the Queen must be going through a difficult childbirth now, isn’t she?”

Logh, the Knight, took a deep look at the High Priest standing in front of him, nodded, and said, “Okay, you follow me.”

Trissley gave a faint smile, mounted one of the war horses handed over by a soldier, and hurriedly followed the Knight Logh deep into the royal palace.

Just as they were about to reach the Queen’s bedchamber, the clear cry of a newborn baby suddenly rang out, immediately spreading throughout most of the palace.

Upon hearing this sound, all the court officials, guards, and maids in the palace were elated, shouting in excitement, with a festive atmosphere instantly enveloping the entire palace.

Only Trissley’s face drastically changed as if she had seen something unbelievable.

Logh, the knight, also immersed in the intense joy, did not notice Trissley’s odd behavior for a while.

When he turned his head, Trissley had already put on a warm smile and congratulated, “Her Majesty has given birth smoothly! This is indeed worth celebrating. In that case, there is no need for me to disturb.”

However, at this point, Logh the Knight keenly sensed the abnormality of the High Priest and immediately laughed,

“High Priest Sir, since you are here, you should meet Her Majesty the Queen and the Count. Please wait a moment, I will inform them.”

Upon saying this, without paying any heed to Trissley’s attempt at retaining him, Logh the Knight strode into the bedchamber.

…

Inside the bedchamber, Isa woke up to the sound of the baby girl’s crying. She struggled to sit up, weakly calling out,

“Colin, where is our child…”

“Don’t worry, she is right here.” Colin gently lifted up their daughter and handed her to Isa.

Isa took the crying baby girl, tears instantly welled up in her eyes, and she wept with joy.

Colin looked at the heartwarming scene in front of him, filled with warmth in his heart.

At this moment, he felt he had one more connection with this otherworldly world, and he had one more person to protect in this world.

However, this warm moment was interrupted by the sound of footsteps.

“Sir, a High Priest from the Temple of Destiny seeks an audience.” Knight Logh reported loudly through the curtain.

“No see.” Colin said without turning his head.

At this time, he didn’t bother about the so-called High Priest.

Logh the Knight did not leave, but spoke again, “Sir, this High Priest once mentioned that the queen’s delivery might be dangerous.”

“Oh?” Colin finally seemed a bit interested.

At the same time, he wondered if the High Priestess of the Goddess of Fate had anything to do with the Phoenix Phantom.

Or perhaps, the crisis of Isa’s difficult childbirth this time was made by her, which was why she showed up at the palace in such a timely manner.

But why would she throw herself into the net?

Thinking of this, Colin squinted his eyes, his gaze flashing with extreme danger.

“Is she still outside?”

“Yes, she seemed to have the intention of leaving after hearing the baby’s cry, but I didn’t let her go.”

“Very good!” Colin kissed Isa and their daughter’s forehead gently, spoke softly, “You two rest well, I will go and settle the score with certain people!”

Isa nodded slightly and said, “Mm, but you must be careful, this High Priest Trissley is mysterious and may not be easy to deal with.”

Colin stood up, speaking coldly,

“Don’t worry, whoever is behind this, they have to pay the price!”
