Volume 4, Chapter 55 – Epilogue

Three days later.

Yisi, who had just woken up, came out of her room. After walking into the spacious courtyard, she stretched long and hard at the sky.

The sky over the Pescia territory was still a sheet of gray. Yisi, with her silver twintails, couldn’t help but feel that if this continued, her companions would get sick. Just because vampires didn’t need sunlight didn’t mean her companions didn’t. Moreover, sunlight makes people feel good, while cloudy days do the opposite. It wasn’t just physical health; mental health was also not to be ignored.

“Hmm… Fran and Shinku have decided to do some research in the Pescia territory first. Akarin plans to take Clementine back to Margaret to continue working, and the three elf girls are doing the same…”

“Good morning, Onee-sama.”

“Ah, good morning to you too, Camilla.”

Accidentally running into Camilla in the courtyard, Yisi responded naturally. Next to Camilla were Mary and a not-so-happy-looking Tiffany.

“Good morning, Master~”

“Yisi, magic.”

“Okay, just a moment, Tiffany. Have you eaten already, Mary?”

While extending her hand for Tiffany to replenish her magic, Yisi looked around—she didn’t see Edith anywhere. Ever since three days ago, when she had separated her soul from Edith’s body, Edith had been clinging to her from time to time.

Although Edith herself would not admit that it was “clinging.”

“I’ve already eaten~ I left your breakfast in the kitchen, Master. It stays warm longer there. I’ll go get it right away.”

“Thank you, Mary.”

Yisi patted Mary’s head, then looked at Camilla.

“How come you’re out with Mary and Tiffany?”

Rеαd οո ΚatReαⅾіոɡСаfе

It was normal for the three of them to be together when they were out shopping, but it was quite rare at home.

“Nauseous.”

The one who answered was Tiffany. As she spoke, she even made a vomiting motion.

“What’s wrong?”

“That woman. The pets.”

“Ah… so that’s what it is.”

She must be referring to Edith punishing the pets who had betrayed her. For the past few days, Edith had been in a state of recovery and didn’t have the energy to deal with them. Now that she had recovered today, she was dealing with them immediately. It seemed her sadistic tendencies hadn’t changed.

Although it was a good thing that she hadn’t changed, for it to happen in this particular area was unavoidably a bit awkward.

“Has the execution already started?”

“No. When we saw her, she was looking for you.”

“Ho ho, so that’s where you were. You just got up?”

Accompanied by Refina, Edith appeared behind Yisi. The latter looked the same as always, with a head of white hair symbolizing the Pescia family line, the appearance of a fourteen-year-old, slightly cold facial features, and exceptionally beautiful facial features.

Hetty had not deceived Yisi. The two necklaces had combined to create a new body. Without going into the details for now, the fact was that Yisi was now using a new body with the appearance of her [Second Form Awakening]: azure eyes and silver hair with tips dyed a faint blue. Although her facial features were still similar to Edith’s, those who were familiar with them could tell the difference at a glance.

First, Yisi always found long hair troublesome, so she wore it in twintails. Second, her facial features were softer than Edith’s.

As for Count Pescia, he was naturally overjoyed that his daughter had been saved. If Yisi hadn’t thought it would mess up the seniority and stop him, he would have even addressed her as “Lady” and bowed whenever he saw her.

Without any sense of tension, Yisi yawned.

“I haven’t eaten yet. We can talk later.”

“Do you need me to feed you? If you still have the habit of drinking blood, you can eat me directly, you know?”

If she didn’t look at Edith’s expression, she would surely be tempted. But Yisi knew without looking that Edith now had a cunning expression, one that was up to no good. If she were to agree, the one being eaten would definitely not be Edith. She had almost fallen for Edith’s trick at the very beginning; it was fortunate that her various resistances were super high that she hadn’t fallen for it.

Yisi waved her hand.

“The same trick won’t work a second time.”

“Then come to the back garden after you’ve finished eating. I have something interesting to show you.”

Edith walked up to Yisi, tilting her head up slightly to look at her—Yisi was now a little taller than her.

To be honest, Edith was indeed a very beautiful girl.

“Something interesting?”

Yisi tilted her head in confusion.

“Yes. Branding, impalement, the cross sword…”

“Wait, that kind of thing will make me throw up. I won’t look. I still have to prepare various equipment for my trip this afternoon. It would be terrible if I keep throwing up.”

A slight crack finally appeared on Edith’s calm face—mainly in terms of her persona.

“Huh? You’re going to the royal capital so soon?”

“I stole someone else’s things, so of course I have to make compensation. Besides, I didn’t expect the Queen to be someone I know…”

“Th-then I’ll go have breakfast too.” Edith feigned calmness and coughed twice, then waved at Refina. “Refina, prepare the same meal as Mary’s for me.”

A look of hesitation appeared on Refina’s face. Compared to before, the current Refina was more mature. Coupled with the subtle change in Edith’s personality, she was now more like a capable maid who had watched Edith grow up than her pet.

“I understand. But the pets in the back garden…”

“Treat them as scrap. Sell them or throw them away as you please.”

“Yes, as you command, Master. Also… Miss Yisi has already gone to the dining room with Miss Camilla and the others. You, Master…”

Refina’s eyes gestured that Yisi had already left.

“Tch, damn it. It must be Camilla urging her again. Hey! Yisi! Wait!”

Shouting Yisi’s name, Edith, ignoring the strange looks from the servants in the courtyard, hurried after her group. Of course, Yisi wasn’t that mean. She stopped and turned around helplessly.

“Yes, yes. Haven’t you already had breakfast? I’ll share some of mine with you, so don’t make things difficult for Refina.”

“Tch, I’d be happy if you’re willing to share with me, but I hope it’s not because of Refina that you’re sharing with me.”

Catching up to Yisi, Edith frowned unhappily.

Yisi couldn’t help but find this change amusing.

She’s become cuter.

She couldn’t resist reaching out to pat Edith’s head, but it was deftly dodged.

“I won’t accept the way you comfort a child.”

“Hmm… then let’s have Refina make a small pastry before noon, and we’ll eat it together? That way, we won’t be making things difficult for her.”

Edith’s eyes widened slightly.

“Really?”

Yisi nodded.

“Really.”

“Good! Then we’ll ask Refina later. Now, let’s go eat your breakfast.”

You still want to eat breakfast…

The words were on the tip of her tongue, but Yisi held them back, and her expression gradually changed to a relieved smile.

Because the current Edith had her eyes closed, revealing a dazzling smile that could replace the sun.

The one standing here was no longer the lonely girl who had walked alone in the wilderness, too rigid yet lacking in strength. The decisive girl who had been on the verge of her end had finally met a happy ending.

The girl named Loiswell Edith Pescia was no longer alone, but had become a vampire girl who had found things to cherish and had learned to smile.
