I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

The one who answered her question was a blood princess who also had silver hair and red eyes. However, her darker red eyes and darker silver hair meant that her bloodline was lower than Elizabeth's, and she was considered a side branch of the royal family. Her name was Zoe Lesombra.

Unlike Eve, the lazy princess who has not yet been involved in politics, she is currently the real second-in-command in the vampire military field, only below Elizabeth.

She is in charge of the deployment of the Blood Clan's imperial army, the dispatch of the armies of each clan, and the defense of the Fallen Plain.

Simply put, Elizabeth is responsible for controlling the general direction, and the rest is basically carried out by her.

His status in the blood clan is definitely second only to the emperor.

"Okay, let's continue preparing for the purge of the Bloodline Faction. After Little Eve returns, she will lead the team."

"Yes!"

The situation is somewhat similar to that of the elves. Since many abysses in the blood clan’s territory have been eradicated, Ruoyi now has a lot more troops at his disposal.

However, there are still some differences between the situation in the vampire clan and that in the elves clan. After all, the two sides have different ways of dealing with the abyss, and the specific situations within the clan are also different.

The elven army is entirely under the jurisdiction and command of the white elves. There are no direct armies under the names of the golden elves and the forest elves. However, the army within the blood clan is divided into two parts: the army directly under the royal family and the clan army of each clan.

In terms of strength, those directly under the royal family are stronger, while in terms of numbers, the clan armies are larger.

The garrison of the Abyss stronghold is composed of a mixture of the two plus temporary workers who are adventurers. The clan whose territory the Abyss is located in will be responsible for sending troops to assist in the defense.

After the Abyss was destroyed, the armies directly under the royal family were transferred to the Land of the Fallen for rotation, while the clan armies were dispatched by their respective clans, either retired or transferred to other places.

In this regard, the bloodline faction suffered a loss, because when Elizabeth took Eve to destroy the abyss, she basically ignored the abysses in those places. She only destroyed a few symbolically to avoid leaving any handle for the other party to do something.

After all, those bloodline factions already had some ill intentions and were secretly flirting with the devil's followers. Would anything good come of it if they were allowed to obtain enough troops?

However, these abysses will naturally have to be cleared sooner or later, but it is hard to say whether the bloodline clans will still exist when the clearing is completed.

"Your Majesty..."

Suddenly Ruoyi acted as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Hmm? Tell me straight away, what else is going on?"

"It's about Princess Eve..."

Ruoyi hesitated for a moment, but continued.

"Since Princess Eve hasn't made a public appearance in a long time, some bad rumors have surfaced recently. I suspect someone might be spreading them behind the scenes."

Before traveling to the elves, although Eve had not been involved in politics, she could still be seen in the palace and the inner castle every day, otherwise she would not have been entangled by the bloodline trio.

Since she went out traveling, no one has seen the princess in the inner castle for several months, and many people are wondering if something happened to her.

After all, the only legitimate heir of the blood clan has not been seen for several months, which is quite strange no matter how you look at it, and it can't help but make people imagine.

Originally, this matter was quite normal, but recently this rumor has intensified, especially in the territories of the bloodline clans, which is clearly beyond the normal range.

The more outrageous rumors have even reached the point where Eve is dead and the direct bloodline of the royal blood clan is cut off.

Although Ruoyi knew Eve's whereabouts and knew that the person who destroyed the abyss was actually this seemingly insignificant princess, she couldn't tell the people below directly.

So when faced with some rumors from people below her, she seemed a little embarrassed and didn't know how to deal with it.

"Ah, this is the news I sent out, don't worry about it."

Elizabeth waved her hand gently to signal Zoey not to worry.

"Eh?"

"I just wanted to see if I could catch any fish."

To be precise, Elizabeth wanted to help the bloodline faction find an excuse to launch an attack, to see if she could make them jump out and be beaten to death.

But it seems that those guys are quite cowardly and have no intention of taking the bait. After all, they are a group of old foxes.

But it doesn't matter. At worst, I can kill him later on the pretext that he has something to do with the devil's followers.

Even though some evidence is still missing, no one says that the evidence found in the ruins after they are wiped out is invalid, right?

After all, no one is free enough to speak up for them, unless they want to go down and accompany them.

"Alright, let's finally confirm who will be attending the festival. This festival is definitely not going to be peaceful."

"Yes!"

The reports in the inner fortress of the vampires are still going on. All the forces surrounding the elves' ceremony are making final preparations, waiting for the moment to take the stage.

§207 The Undercurrent (Part 2)

——Orcs——

"Anyway! I'm going to deal with those scumbag Demon God followers at the Elven Ceremony in a few days. There might even be some kind of Demon God's will among them... what's it called?"

In a secret room located in the stronghold on the Far West Front, a muscular beastman who was as tall as an iron tower, had short golden hair, and a large circle of iron chains wrapped around his wrists was shouting at the people in front of him.

In other words, the soundproofing performance of this secret room has been maximized, otherwise most of the stronghold would be able to hear what the strong man is saying with his loud voice. It is truly an example of conspiring loudly.

Because of this, everyone present had consciously covered their ears to avoid being yelled at.

Even without using magic power, he can roar with power comparable to sonic magic. Looking across the entire continent, perhaps only this strong man can do that.

"Oh yes! Possession!"

bump--

He slapped the table casually, shaking everything on it and even leaving a few cracks on the table itself. The strong man finally remembered what he wanted to say.

But the people sitting at the table were all confused and could not keep up with each other's pace at all.

"… Could you please explain this in more detail, Lord Bestiia?"

After looking at each other for a few times, a beastman woman with dark circles under her eyes, who looked as if she had not had enough rest, finally squeezed out these words through gritted teeth.

"Huh? Isn't that clear enough? You'll be fighting on your own for a few days. Don't embarrass yourself!"

That’s right, this burly man is none other than the Beast King Bestia, one of the three strongest men on the continent, along with the Queen of Blood and the Mother of Elves. The other people sitting in the room are his most trusted subordinates.

At this time, he was talking to his subordinates about the arrangements for the elven festival, although the scene seemed a little wrong no matter how you looked at it.

bump--

After hearing his extremely casual words, although it was not as strong as Bestia's slam on the table just now, the woman with dark circles under her eyes also slammed the table in anger.

Judging from her posture, if she couldn't beat her or lift her, she would have grabbed Bestia's collar and yelled at her.

"What do you mean 'this isn't clear enough'? Why are you telling us such a big thing only today?! There are only a few days left!!!"

Although they knew that Bestia would routinely show up at the elves' festival, this was definitely the first time they heard that she would fight with the demon's followers!

And what the hell is that entity that possesses the will of the demon god?

Could it really be the demon they thought it was?!

"Huh? Didn't I tell you before?"

Looking at the woman's angry expression, Bestia touched the back of her head inexplicably, looking quite innocent.

"Absolutely not!!!"

"Oh! Then why don't you tell me now?"

With a wave of her hand, Bestia acted as if it was all trivial matters.

"!!!"

Looking at Bestia's indifferent expression as if it was all a small matter, the woman with dark circles under her eyes wanted to jump over and stab him twice. Anyway, this guy had extremely thick skin. Not to mention stabbing him twice, even if she stabbed him for two days, his skin wouldn't be broken.

And if you really stab it, there is a 99% chance that the knife will break first!

As for the other people at the table, although their outburst was not as intense as that of the woman with dark circles under her eyes, their expressions at this moment were also quite interesting.

To be a subordinate of the Beast King, you really need to have a good body, otherwise you will be angered to death by him sooner or later.

Since Bestia basically has no business dealings with government affairs, the Orcs are actually managed by a few of them in a certain sense. It seems to be a good job, second only to the leader, but if they have a choice, they really want to quit. Whoever wants to take this crappy job can do it.

In other words, Bestia’s favor to them was too great, otherwise, anyone else would have run away long ago.

"cough."

After a light cough, a male beastman sitting next to the woman with dark circles under his eyes reached out and gently pulled her, indicating that she should sit back.

After all, Bestia has been like this for a long time. Now that it has happened, instead of blaming her for telling them just now, it is better to think about how to solve it first.

"Humph!"

After giving Bestia a dissatisfied look and a cold snort, the woman with dark circles under her eyes sat back in her original position.

But facing her extremely rude behavior, the other people at the table did not show any dissatisfaction. Instead, they all wanted to give her a thumbs up and say, "Well done! You did exactly what we wanted to do!"

Bestia also looked completely unconcerned about this. After all, that scene just now was not the first or second time. As for the specific number of times? Do you know how many slices of bread you have eaten?

"Are you the only one heading to the elves this time?"

After thinking for a moment, the male beastman continued to ask.

"That's right. After all, the elves basically only allow women to enter, and you won't be of much use even if you go."

"..."

Although what the other party said was true, after all, if the opponent was at the level of the demon god's will, they were really no match for him, but why did it make me so angry just listening to it?

"call……"

After taking a deep breath and suppressing the anger rising in his heart, the man continued to ask.

"And you mean that there is a high probability of riots on the front?"

The riot phenomenon refers to the large-scale eruption of the abyss waves in the far west. Before Eve killed Zero and destroyed the fragments of the demon's remains for the first time, the largest riot in a hundred years occurred here. And judging from Bestia's words, there will be another riot on the front line in the next few days.

"Ah? That, I guessed."

"!!!"

Seeing Bestia's casual look, the man's expression also became interesting.

Well, now it's his turn to give Bestia a couple of punches.

"After all, I'm definitely going to be away from the front lines for a few days, so there's no way there won't be some problems here."

As if treating the others as puppets, Bestia said what he said as a matter of course, as if the battle line would definitely explode as soon as he stepped into it.

"Okay, we'll make preparations next."

He stood up with a tense expression and bowed, and everyone in the room left the secret room one after another.

Firstly, they had to quickly organize defensive preparations. After all, the festival was only about a week away, and Bestia's notification to them was a little too late.

As for the second reason, they were afraid that Bestia would anger them to death in a while, which was very real.

In the secret room where Bestia was the only one left, the famous Beast King clenched his fists tightly.

"Eve Lesombra, what kind of person are you, the only one who can destroy the abyss..."

Without the casual feeling from before, Bestia now rarely showed his serious side. After all, how could a man who could become the strongest man at the top of the continent be a complete reckless man?

Don't forget that those who manage the beast tribe on his behalf are all uncut gems discovered by him personally.

§208 In the Dark

——Unknown location——

This is a dark place. The ground under your feet is made of black mud from the abyss, and so is everything around you. From time to time, bits of black mud drip down from above and then turn into part of the ground.

Ordinary people would feel a deep sense of discomfort if they just took one look at this scene.

At this moment, there were hundreds of figures busy here, throwing countless corpses into a deep pool formed by black mud.

It is not particularly appropriate to call them human figures, because the bodies of most of them have been assimilated into the black mud. Only the remaining limbs can reveal what they originally were, but even these limbs are rapidly turning into the black mud.

As for their origins...

I believe that those things that crawled out of the black quagmire have already given the answer.
