Volume 1, Chapter 8 – Lazy Life

After receiving Chris-san’s blood and regaining my energy, I returned from the Mushroom Viscount’s estate to that luxurious hotel.

By the way, the reward for defeating Schwarz was 3,000 Gold Coins.

I suddenly became filthy rich.

The currency circulating in this world consists of gold coins, silver coins, small silver coins, copper coins, and small copper coins.

Their value is roughly like this.

5 Small copper coins equal 1 copper coin, which is worth about 100 yen.

10 copper coins equal 1 small silver coin. 5 small silver coins equal 1 silver coin.

Finally, 10 silver coins equal 1 gold coin. That’s worth about 50,000 yen.

In other words, with just the reward for defeating Schwarz, I acquired assets equivalent to 150 million yen ¹ Almost 1 million USD. .

At this point, maybe I don’t have to work anymore?

And so, my lazy life—no, my slow life—in the town of Zarabia began.

Wake up nice and late in the morning, then enjoy the breakfast buffet.

Spend the day strolling around town and have lunch at some random restaurant.

In the afternoon, nap while sunbathing at the harbor or in the park.

After that, grab a snack and go for another walk.

Then at night, have a luxurious dinner back at the hotel, take a bath, get a massage, and head to bed.

Ahh, I’m thoroughly enjoying my slow life.

Hm? You saying this isn’t a slow life?

No, no, objections are not accepted. If I say it’s a slow life, then it’s a slow life.

Except for the fact that Chris-san is constantly watching over me.

“Chris-san, we’re in town, so isn’t it fine if you stop following me around all the time?”

“I cannot allow that. Fiene-sama, please be aware of your own beauty. You stand out far too much. A woman with beauty as extraordinary as yours could get caught up in trouble anytime, anywhere, even in a town like this. There are scoundrels everywhere.”

“I… I see.”

It’s true that I’d rather avoid things like getting kidnapped and sold into slavery or dragged into some back alley and put in danger.

And also.

“Besides, I will not leave your side until I have taken you to the royal capital and you have met His Majesty and His Holiness.”

“No, I mean, I’m a Vampire, so that really won’t work.”

“Yes, yes. I understand that setting. If you want to drink blood, just say so anytime. I’ll give it to you. Now then, Fiene-sama—”

And it’s like this every single time.

Chris-san seems absolutely determined to drag me in front of the king and the pope or whatever and turn me into a Saint.

What kind of joke is a Vampire Saint? That’s what I think, anyway, but I still haven’t Managed to convince this muscle-brained knight onee-san.

By the way, to make her believe that I really was a Vampire, I once tried using the Bat Transformation Skill, but I ran out of energy in less than ten seconds and reverted to normal.

And after seeing that, Chris-san dismissed it, saying:

“Being able to use magic to transform into a bat is certainly impressive, but even the weakest Vampire can remain transformed all night long. Also, Vampire bats are usually a dark navy color close to black so they can blend into the shadows. But Fiene-sama’s bat was silver-white, so it stood out completely. On top of that, it was all round and adorable, and those gentle eyes of yours were still recognizable. At that point, you were not hiding your identity whatsoever, so please try again.”

Grununu.

By the way, turning into mist lasted three seconds, and hiding in shadows lasted five before I gave up.

Guffu.

Furthermore, Chris-san is overwhelmingly superior to me physically, and on top of that, I have no idea about the geography of this area.

So even if I tried to run away, I’d get caught in no time, and even if I somehow Managed to leave town, I’d just end up right back where I started and collapse somewhere out in the wild.

So, well, given all that, I currently only have two options.

One is to keep relaxing in Zarabia while waiting until I can log out, and the other is to head to the royal capital and progress the event so I can obtain a Class.

And for now, I’ve chosen the former, you see.

Because wouldn’t it be way more efficient to log out and check the Wiki first?

And so, today as well, I’m thoroughly enjoying my slow life.

Now then, what should I have for lunch today?
