Before transforming into a vampire, in other words, during the time when I was human.

I actually preferred reading novels much more than engaging in online communities.

A mundane and repetitive daily life, leading to a desire for something extraordinary.

However, since I didn’t want to experience the extraordinary firsthand, I satisfied that desire by reading novels.

When browsing through internet communities and coming across boring novels, I used to look around to lift my lowered spirits.

But after turning into a vampire, things changed significantly.

With the outbreak of a species transformation crisis, fantasy became reality itself.

Reading random posts on community sites felt more realistic and entertaining than reading novels.

So now, it had become completely the opposite, and I only read novels when I truly had leisure time.

Honestly.

[Do you guys think pet food tastes good?]

I saw a dog eating it really deliciously just now, yeah.

Thinking of buying in bulk if it’s decent, is it okay?

– The quality has been good lately, so humans can eat it too. But the taste must be awful, right?

ㄴ How would a dog know that?

ㄴ My friend Namgoong told me… It’s fine if you soak it in water, but it hurts your teeth if you eat it straight…

– Ignore the comment above. It’s just damn tasty. Seriously, you could probably survive just by eating that?

ㄴ Are you f***ing a dog? _(Author)

ㄴ Oh haha didn’t mean to get caught

– Why are you trying to turn into a dog yourself? If you’re broke, just buy 6kg of cornmeal.

ㄴ If you go to the market in the evening, vegetables are really cheap there. Buy those, ask for some bones at the butcher’s, they’ll give you a bunch. With that, you won’t even spend 50,000 won a month on food, seriously.

ㄴ I was just thinking of buying it as a snack because it tastes good… I’m not that broke… _(Author)

Posts like these pop up on boring days, making one wonder if there’s really no reason to read novels anymore.

The increasing delay in novel updates was also due to this reason.

Returning home from work, it’s already 5 a.m.

After cleaning up and briefly browsing through the community while lying on the bed, an hour passes in the blink of an eye, and it’s time to sleep.

Although the rambling was a bit long… Anyway, as I spent more time on the community recently, I developed an interest in a few individuals.

Among them was one who seemed to be a Pixie race, the author known as “SavePixies.”

When other races complained about discomfort that didn’t seem like weaknesses, he alone mentioned “Man VS Wild,” making everyone shut up.

He was the kind of presence that made you feel a sense of camaraderie for some reason.

The reason is absurd.

Because that little guy dared to playfully punch me with genuine intent.

Hey, he could have played around with treats instead. This furball brat deserves a good smack.

– If he played around with treats, he should’ve gotten smacked instead haha This time the cat did wrong haha

ㄴ If he throws a genuine punch, I’d have to lie down all day;; Does it make sense that you have to risk your life just to play a prank once? _(Author)

– Whether it’s the posts by the vampire or this one, every time I see such posts, my fantasies about different races shatter for real.

ㄴ There can’t be any romance or fantasy in reality, right? _(Author)

– But how did you live after plucking the cat’s whiskers? You must have gone crazy for real.

ㄴ Info: If Pixies set their minds to it, the possibilities are endless. _(Author)

– I have a question, though. When comparing vampires and Pixies, which race do you think is more idiotic?

ㄴ Still wouldn’t it be the vampire? Everyday is Man VS Wild, but Pixies aren’t worse idiots than stray dogs, right? _(Author)

Why is it? I felt like the existence that wrote such a post as the first guest, ‘Save Pixie.’

Of course, the chances of my intuition being correct were slim.

Among the different species with completed identification in Korea, there are approximately forty Pixies.

Considering the probability lower than 2.5% when thinking about the individuals whose identification has not been completed, how can one think they are the same beings?

“…I don’t know, it’s nice if it feels friendly, right?”

It would be strange to pretend to know without any knowledge.

After scratching my cheek, I awkwardly presented the menu to Pixie.

“Here’s the menu! Please call me when you’re ready to order?”

“Oh, I’ll order right away. I’ll have a glass of Baileys Milk here.”

“Yes! Understood! Please wait a moment!”

The long-awaited first order.

Even though the cocktail was simple to make, I started preparing slowly with a nervous heart.

Shuffle!

First, fill the shaker with ice.

Add 3/2 ounces of Baileys, 1/2 ounce of cream, then 3/2 ounces of milk additionally.

Shake vigorously like this.

“Done.”

A creamy feeling completes the excellent Baileys Milk.

You might think the method of making it is ridiculously easy, but it’s actually much easier than that.

The method used just now is the recipe used at this cocktail bar.

In reality, you just fill a glass with ice, add 1 ounce of Baileys, then add 3 ounces of milk to make Baileys Milk.

“Your Baileys Milk is ready… Wait a moment, I’ll serve it in another glass.”

Feeling quite satisfied with how well I made it, I almost served the cocktail as is but realized my mistake and transferred it to a smaller glass.

The glass for the cocktail was larger than the Pixie guest’s hand.

To prevent a disaster while drinking, I divided the cocktail into several small glasses the size of shot glasses and handed them to Pixie.

As Pixie began to enjoy the cocktail, expressing satisfaction, “Ah, this is why I love this place! A cocktail bar that considers Pixies is truly only here!”

“How do you find the taste of the cocktail? Do you like it?”

“It’s a combination that can’t be tasteless… Still, among what I’ve tried, it falls on the tasty side. You’re skilled.”

“Hehe, thank you.”

The feeling of effort paying off to make a proper cocktail.

Smiling happily, as I tidy up, Pixie, who had been sipping the cocktail for a while, asked me a question.

“Um, this might be a rude question, but… Are you also a different species?”

“No need to be polite. As you can see, I’m a vampire. And you, Pixie, right?”

“How did you know? Most people can guess fairies, but not Pixies!”

“I happen to be quite interested in different species.”

With a twinkle in my eye, as I offered rusks as a snack, Pixie, a tiny fairy, nibbled on them eagerly and then started chattering non-stop with excitement.

“By the way, you really can’t trust the internet.”

“What happened?”

“Oh, the vampires portrayed in the articles I read online weren’t as cool-looking as you. They’d jump at needles, meticulously count every grain of rice when eating sushi… What else was there? Oh yeah, they said they’d die from garlic…”

…That sounds very similar to something I wrote?

Feeling a bit sheepish, but where in the world am I the only vampire?

Although there could be a possibility that another vampire wrote it, I pretended not to notice, but Pixie pulled out a phone from her bag like a nail and showed me ‘that post’ she saw.

Jumping at needles.

When eating sushi, you have to count the number of rice grains one by one.

Not being able to eat garlic seals off all Korean cuisine.

Encountering a cross, you must suck and run while turning.

Not only do you get sunburned as you cook under the sunlight, but you also ignite like it.

Even when hit with silver, you still ignite just like under the sunlight.

Not being able to cross flowing water is a given, and if you touch it, you can’t move at all.

Is there a species that can’t be reflected in a mirror and has to do makeup looking at selfies?

What the… Nobles of the night?

It seems better to seriously play dead.

Comments and likes were unnecessary to see.

Just by looking at the title and the author’s name, I could tell it was my writing.

Pixie, are you pretending not to know on purpose even though you know everything?

No… Your face looks too innocent for that, really clueless!

Above all, why.

Why show this insane community site to others?!

I feel so embarrassed just looking at it!!!

Didn’t they say something about a frog getting hit and dying from a stone thrown carelessly?

Feeling like hiding in a mouse hole, I awkwardly smile.

With a disappointed expression, Pixie once again deeply scratched my innermost thoughts.

“Of course, that can’t be true. How could there be a species worse than Pixies? If they’re worse than Pixies, then really, ugh.”

Just thinking about it makes me dizzy, shaking my head like a rat… No, like a tiny fairy.

Suppressing my boiling anger, I tried to pamper Pixie as kindly as possible.

But does Pixie have any advantages after all?

Seeing the guests, Pixie seems like quite a decent species too.

“Even if those weaknesses were all true, vampires seem better than Pixies.”

“What?”

“…Ah.”

Damn it.

I said the opposite.
