Your highness the princess with royal blood

When Eve walked out of the bathroom, a figure was already standing on the balcony outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

Since she hadn’t received the house owner’s permission, she had been standing quietly on the balcony, and although she had been waiting for a long time, she still hadn’t shown any sign of complaint.

“Come in, Winnie. I’ve told you, this isn’t a castle. You don’t need to call me ‘Your Highness’.”

Eve, with her slit pupils restored, strode leisurely to the only bed in the room and sat down.

Even wearing the black leather shoes issued by the superhuman school, Eve still exuded a sense of elegance.

This kind of nobility and elegance, which had been refined over time and was deeply ingrained in her bones, could not be compared with the nouveau riche.

Hearing her words, Winnie on the balcony bowed slightly and gently pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window, walking into the room.

Winnie was wearing a black and white classical maid outfit, with a matching headpiece on her head. Two small pigtails with a bright golden hue fell over her chest.

“Whether in the castle or in the human kingdom, Your Highness is always Your Highness, with the blood of the royal family flowing in your veins.”

The solemn reply was similar to Winnie’s way of doing things.

After hearing Winnie’s words, since she was unwilling to change, Eve had no reason to force her to change her habits. For her, what mattered was business.

“Tell me, what’s the situation in the territory now?”

Crossing her long legs and propping up her fragrant cheek with her hand, Eve sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes fixed on Winnie with inquiry, preparing to listen to her routine report.

“Due to the long absence of His Majesty and Your Highness, the princes who are acting on His Majesty’s behalf are gradually finding themselves in a difficult position. The nobles under them are also becoming restless. They have returned to their own territories to suppress the rebellion, leaving only one prince in the capital to control the situation.”

“Who is still in the capital?”

Eve nodded slightly to indicate that she understood. After listening to Winnie’s answer, she quickly learned from Winnie’s mouth who the prince stationed in the capital was.

“In addition, there’s news from the border that a small number of small nobles on the border have begun to gather private armies, wanting to launch another plunder.”

Hearing this news, Eve frowned.

The so-called plunder was to raid the border cities and plunder their resources, whether human or livestock, everything was taken.

This method of plundering had been explicitly forbidden by the Empress after the peace treaty was signed.

Even blood slaves had been abolished by the Empress. The humans currently staying in the vampire territory were all given the status of commoners. The past practice of being sucked to death by vampires no longer happened after a few nobles were hanged to deter others.

Now, the daily blood consumption of the vampires mainly came from animals or was drawn from commoners in a fixed amount.

For the nobles at the top, they might not be affected, but some small nobles, after tasting human blood, could no longer tolerate the drop from human blood to animal blood.

This might be the cause of the plundering, but in the final analysis, it was only small nobles, and they wouldn’t have the thought of rebelling against the Empress’s orders.

Combined with the princes who had left the capital, Eve sneered when she figured this out.

It seemed that the royal family’s great scythe hadn’t appeared for too long, making them forget what fear was.

After delivering these two pieces of news, Winnie’s heart was filled with trepidation. She didn’t know whether to say the next words or not. Looking at the current situation within the vampire race, she gritted her teeth and decided to speak.

“Your Highness, now that the Empress cannot show herself, are you still going to stay by this human’s side?”

After speaking, Winnie knelt on the ground, her eyes lowered, not daring to look at Eve’s eyes.

After hearing Winnie’s words, Eve’s eyes turned cold as she looked at her.

Even in the scorching summer, Winnie couldn’t feel a trace of heat. A deep chill emanated from her marrow, a pressure from the top down of the bloodline. The majesty of the royal family was not to be violated.

Eve rarely used this kind of pressure on anyone, and this time it appeared on Winnie.

Winnie lowered her head without saying a word. The princess couldn’t be trapped here.

The Empress hadn’t shown herself, the princess had been missing for a long time, and the disappearance of the royal bloodline had made many nobles restless. The pro-war princes had gained the upper hand, turning a blind eye to the rules set by the Empress, and all the loyal royalists had become restless.

“Winnie.”

The princess withdrew her cold gaze, her eyes becoming gentle, and she called her name affectionately.

Hearing this, Winnie lowered her head even further.

“Do you think a human who can’t step into the sequence will have a longer lifespan than a vampire? Not to mention his current physical condition, I’m afraid his time is not long.”

Speaking of Su Ran, Eve’s eyes darkened.

“Back then, when I was looking for the soul artifact in the human world and tried to resonate with it, all my power was backlashed and sealed. If he hadn’t stepped forward to save me, I probably wouldn’t be standing here today.”

Stroking the silver bracelet on her wrist, and remembering how she had walked down the main road in a daze, facing the surging car, Eve’s heart still lingered with fear.

The backlash from the soul artifact had made Eve no different from a human with no strength to truss a chicken. All the power of the vampire race was sealed. If she had been run over by a car.

“I can’t use vampire magic to help him. It would make it impossible for him to gain a foothold in the human world and even endanger his life. Now, the human methods can’t heal him either. Why not let me accompany him to the end in his limited time?”

Winnie fell silent. She knew that what the princess said was true.

The human named Su Ran didn’t have many days left. According to estimates, Su Ran, who seemed to be in the same physical condition as a normal person on the surface, had at most one month left.

His body had multiple cracks, like a porcelain doll full of cracks, which would shatter with a gentle touch.

Winnie didn’t say anything more. She just bowed quietly and left the room.

She respected the princess’s choice. One month, for the long-lived vampire race, was actually no different from taking a one-hour nap.

Watching Winnie leave, Eve properly adjusted her mood.

Reason told her that the vampire race was now only supported by one prince. As a princess, she really shouldn’t be outside the capital, choosing to sit back and watch.

After experiencing the resonance with the soul artifact, she finally understood the reason for her mother’s absence.

What Eve didn’t tell Winnie was that when she saw Su Ran today, she found that his body was showing signs of improvement.

If Su Ran’s original body was like a cracked porcelain, then he was now beginning to transform into an egg that was about to hatch.

There was a nascent force in his body, accumulating energy and waiting for the right opportunity. When the egg hatched, Su Ran would also be reborn.

‘Let me hold on to this bit of selfishness and accompany him for one last month.’

Eve had already made up her mind. As long as she saw Su Ran’s body rejuvenated and his future path on the right track with her own eyes.

She would leave this place and go back to the capital.

The boundary between humans and vampires was like a chasm, not easily broken. What’s more, Eve was a princess with royal blood.
