The curtain of blood spread and about 22 hours passed.

“Oh, right.”

I couldn’t help but laugh out loud as I wondered what the point of worrying all this time was.

“It’s going so well.”

“Okay.”

I and Eris entered the office of the Count of Albatea, the Lord’s Castle.

The place where Countess Albatea, mother of Eris, previously reported to work.

The owner of the place is now not Countess Albatea, but her daughter Eris.

You can proudly declare that you have become the owner.

why?

“They’re all falling out.”

Because most of those who could threaten us have escaped from the castle.

“Eris. Are you upset?”

“I’m not disappointed. Rather, I think it turned out well.”

Eris shrugged as she watched the refugee procession that was visible from the castle.

“There are less than 100 people trying to loot Yeongju Castle, and the rest are getting away without any bloodshed.”

Since the first thief we discovered was the Lord’s Castle Treasure Thief, there have been less than 100 people who have tried to steal something from the Albatea Counts’ Castle.

“I’m grateful that they’re not trying to raid the castle and are just trying to leave.”

They are all dead.

Whether it was a thief who worked at Yeongju Castle or a thief who tried to steal the property of a noble, it was natural to kill them from the perspective of the Countess’s daughter.

Does that mean there were people who entered Yeongju Castle?

It was extremely rare.

We planned to risk our lives to protect the castle and divert attention from the statue of the goddess as much as possible, but there were many humans who cared more about their own lives than I expected.

“It seems like almost 99% of them are missing?”

“That’s right. …Aren’t you being too lenient?”

Eris points at the people and laughs awkwardly.

“Too many people are leaving. People. If we do this, aren’t we just taking over the land instead of taking over Albatea?”

“That means the vampire doesn’t want to become a member of the Demon King’s Army. That’s unexpected.”

More people got out than expected.

“I think it would be better to run away and abandon my home than to become a member of the Demon King’s Army.”

First of all, all the parents with young children crossed the curtain with their children, and even those who were still exerting their strength disappeared.

Priest?

Higher class?

Wealthy?

These are the people who quickly escaped not long after the curtain was raised.

If there are 1% of people who ultimately remain, half of them are people who had no intention of leaving in the first place.

By choice or by force.

“Then, Countess of Albatea, let’s think together about how to deal with the remaining people.”

I approached Iris and wrote on her collarbone.

“What should they do?”

One category: Demon worshippers.

“From the perspective of the Demon King’s army, they are helpful guys.”

They are currently gathered together by the vampires.

To be exact, with Dahlia’s slight guidance, they gathered in a basement and made an altar with their own blood, praying and hoping that the blood curtain would not be lifted.

“You’re a follower of the Demon King’s Army, but you don’t seem to have the disposition of a follower of the Vampire Army.”

Currently, in the castle, a video magic is being used to view the entire territory.

In one of them, in what appears to be a basement, about 13 people are standing naked on a red altar, clasping their hands together and muttering something.

“That’s scary, really. Is that deer blood or human blood?”

“It seems like a mix of both.”

“They don’t seem to be of much help, so what do you think about killing them?”

“Good.”

Albatea’s master made the decision.

“The ceremony at the altar should be a virgin initiation ceremony, not a human sacrifice like that.”

I decided to kill the Demon King’s followers.

As they are mentally dangerous, they are all scheduled to be killed within 24 hours.

“Would it be okay if I just kill him?”

“We should use it as a blood bag and burn the body.”

Since what they want is to gain something by offering blood, they would be very happy if their blood was used as daily food for the vampires of the Vampire Legion.

“Another category? The abandoned ones.”

At the words “abandoned people,” Iris folds her arms and closes her eyes.

Unlike the devil worshippers, these people seem to care about Eris and feel sympathy for her in many ways.

“…Wouldn’t it be good to collect them and make them into a vampire army?”

From an objective standpoint, those who have been abandoned can be said to be pitiful.

Even though people are still leaving the tent during the remaining two hours, they are still discriminating against each other.

“I never thought they would abandon old people like that.”

Elderly people with limited mobility are being abandoned.

Of course, most of them took their old grandfathers with them, but some unintentionally abandoned their elderly parents.

Those who ran away without thinking about their parents.

Some people shout at the wall, “Our parents are inside!” and then they meet their parents, who are carried out by other neighbors, and cry.

“It really seems like one in five people is trash. No, it’s not like there are more than that?”

“Okay.”

Some people took advantage of the confusion to truly abandon the elderly and run away.

However, out of a conscience, only four out of five people carried their sick children out of bed, even though they did not tie them up to prevent them from getting out.

“Those people would be perfect for becoming vampires.”

“Are you getting younger?”

“You can say that you become younger, but that doesn’t mean you become a young beauty in your 20s.”

Women will become vampires first, but they won’t become younger like vampires, like when a grandmother becomes a vampire and turns her into a beauty in her 20s.

Those who do so are only those who enter the cocoon at the altar of the vampire princess and are reborn as beauties in their 20s.

‘It’s not easy to become a vampire.’

Although they do not discriminate based on appearance, Vampires are of the noble class.

No matter how important it is to increase the number of beautiful vampires that I have painstakingly created, I cannot turn ‘any’ person in the County of Albatea into a vampire within that category.

Vampire is a noble.

The nobility are valuable because they are few in number and rare.

“They’ll just become vampires. But since they have the aesthetic of the vampire army, they’ll become old women like Chief of Staff Arcamond.”

Your curved back will straighten out, freckles will disappear, and wrinkles will naturally disappear.

If you become a vampire, you will look at least 10 years younger.

“In fact, what would be better than that appearance? Isn’t the happiest thing that the disease you had disappeared and your physical abilities became like those of a person in their 30s or 40s?”

If only I had become a vampire, a demon who must drink blood for the rest of his life, die when exposed to sunlight, and live under the Demon King’s army for the time being.

“If you look at the fact that you have transcended humanity and become a vampire, it is quite good in that you become physically stronger.”

Being a vampire is a kind of blessing.

Among them, becoming a vampire is like a chance for a commoner to rise in status and become a noble.

“As someone who has been in the Vampire Corps for a long time, I can say that becoming a vampire is a blessing in itself. I didn’t become a vampire myself, but even if I did, my body would be strong enough to endure the side effects.”

If you can’t see sunlight, you should live in a place where sunlight doesn’t reach.

Do I have to drink blood?

Anyway, if a person doesn’t drink water for more than three days, he or she will die from dehydration.

Blood or water.

There is no big difference.

“Let those who want to leave leave. We’ll kick out everyone except those who ‘want to live even if it means becoming demons’ among the people who remain.”

Thus, the County of Albatea will truly become the land of vampires.

“If there are people who cannot leave of their own volition…they are them.”

I directed my fire magic to the dungeon of Count Albatea’s castle.

“Adventurers who noticed the presence of Vampire.”

[Ugh, ugh!]

While everyone was trying to run away.

Those with a sense of justice attacked the Count of Albatea.

They came running, wondering if the demons had hidden the core of the barrier in Count Albatea’s castle, but they found us and entered into battle.

And they were all subdued.

Although there was no Chief Acamond, the adventurers were defeated by the overwhelming power of Inquisitor Mariel, who was searching for the heretic and Silverit with the dildo inside.

“What are the adventurers going to do?”

“You have to teach them the same way.”

The Count’s castle is no different from a dungeon.

“It would have been better if you had just run away, but now that I’ve noticed Vampire’s presence, I can’t let you go alive.”

Adventurers captured in a dungeon are subject to the dungeon’s rules and the instructor’s policies.

“Do you know any faces?”

“That’s not true, but….”

“But no?”

“I was worried that I might turn into a vampire by touching a virgin or a married woman again.”

Eris looks at me and answers curtly.

“How much are you trying to increase it by, huh?”

“Well, I don’t really want to fuck a girl or a woman, but I don’t plan on fucking her with my dick for the time being, right?”

“…Who do you want to make into a vampire?”

“That’s it.”

I whispered in Eris’ ear.

“Yes, mom.”

“……Something feels really strange.”

Iris pouts.

“You know I got pregnant first, right?”

“Of course.”

County of Albatea.

Curtain of blood.

24 hours have passed.

Everyone, except about 1,000 poor people, old people, prisoners, and some people, escaped from the castle of the Count of Albatea.
