The Chaos Princess Arrives / I've Always Kept a Low Profile

During a previous medical examination, she discovered that Astarte had a familiar inside her.

This isn't actually a particularly important technology.

The technology of artificially implanting familiars is actually quite mature.

During past war years, countries around the world developed their own technological systems.

The effect is very obvious.

Because compared to the most technologically advanced aircraft or tanks, their combat power is far inferior to even the weakest familiars.

Furthermore, it is extremely stealthy, residing within its host's body most of the time and only being released when combat is required.

Whether on the main battlefield or in small-scale operations, it can achieve very effective results.

Furthermore, it is much cheaper than researching new weapons.

However, this technology has been abandoned in modern times because it has been prohibited for humanitarian and other reasons since the signing of the Sanctuary Treaty.

With major powers' technologies sealed off, small organizations, lacking both technology and funds, can only risk their own demise by forcibly implanting such technologies.

Moreover, ordinary humans and demons other than vampires do not have enough lifespan to pay the price; using it once or twice would cause the host's death, making it completely meaningless in actual combat.

After all, even if the implantation is successful, it's impossible to put it into actual combat without conducting experiments.

She had originally intended to tell Ren about this, but now that she had become a Blood Servant, there was no need for her to say anything more.

The process of becoming a Blood Servant is also quite simple.

There are two in total.

One method is for vampires to give a portion of their flesh and blood to their target; the other is for them to give only a portion of their own blood to the target.

After Astarte received a dose of her blood through Aurora's fangs, she quickly fell into a deep sleep.

After this interlude ended, Nangong Nayue looked at the group of little girls in her house and felt completely overwhelmed.

How did she suddenly become a kindergarten principal?

Nangong Naya's expression softened slightly when Ren decided to appoint Astarte and Schwanita as maids to manage the household.

After several rounds of drinks and five courses of food,

Nothing more was said that night.

Because of the vampire infection incident at Nefelapitus, Ren knew that those involved in the Feast of the Crimson would soon arrive at Itogami Island.

Once they arrive, Ren has no intention of proceeding according to plan.

After all, according to the normal procedure, those who become Electors will compete on Itogami Island until a winner is finally determined, who will become the victor of the Feast of the Crimson.

It sounds a bit like the Servant War in Fuyuki City, and the process is actually quite similar; all you need to do is eliminate the others.

Ren planned to make his move as soon as the others landed on the island.

Chapter 282 The Arrival of the Chaos Bride

The next morning.

Two newly registered vampire girls entered Nangong Nayue's house.

They are sisters from the now-extinct Caruana family.

After parting ways with Ren on Gozo Island, Liana returned to her base to pack her belongings, and also brought her younger sister, Veldiana, to Itogami Island.

After contacting Nangong Nayue using the contact information left in advance, the two women were brought before Ren.

"The journey is long, please forgive me, sir."

Liana knelt on one knee before Ren and Aurora.

The black-haired girl beside her also knelt on one knee.

"I am Veldiana - Karyana, daughter of Earl Karyana of the War King Territory. My King, please forgive my overstepping my bounds. I beg you to help us destroy those hateful weapons merchants who have plundered our homeland and our people. I am willing to offer all my loyalty."

At this point, Veldiana's voice trembled slightly with tears.

Perhaps she also knew about what had happened in Nefelapitus.

The former subjects have been reduced to the lowest form of vampire.

They have no consciousness or intelligence, just like zombies in horror movies; they will pounce on and tear apart any living thing they see.

For her, a princess who once ruled them but now possessed no power, this must have been an incredibly agonizing situation.

In fact, Ren had a deeper impression of Veldiana than of her sister Liana.

It's not because she's clearly Europe but has an Asian face; she and Liana are practically half-sisters.

In the original work, after Liana was killed by her deceased brother on Gozo Island, she inherited her sister's mantle and came to Itogami Island. She released Aurora, who was sealed in the MAR branch medical facility, with the aim of using the power of the Fourth Progenitor to kill the weapons merchant and reclaim her family's territory.

But not only did he fail, he also ended up penniless and could only make a living by doing odd jobs on Itogami Island. He even became addicted to drugs and was eventually killed by a weapons merchant with a large-caliber anti-demon bullet, turning into ashes.

My fate has been rather unfortunate.

After Veldiana finished speaking, Liana immediately pressed her head down and said, "Lord Ren, Lady Aurora, please forgive my sister's rudeness. She has never been involved in family matters before; she was only acting out of hatred towards that weapons merchant."

Compared to Veldiana, Liana, as the former heir of the family, is much more experienced.

Although Ren was well aware of their thoughts, saying it so directly would be a bit verbose.

Haste makes waste.

Aurora was completely bewildered.

She wouldn't pay any attention to Nefelapitus; she'd completely forgotten about the news she saw yesterday.

Meanwhile, Ren received a new system notification.

[Veldiana has issued you a new quest]

[Mission: The Caruana family's Revenge]

[Objective: Kill the weapons merchant Zaharias]

[Rewards: Liana, Veldiana's Affinity +50, World Anchor Fragment *1, Random Reward *1]

"So subordinates can also issue tasks, huh?"

Ren sighed inwardly.

However, he wasn't particularly fastidious about cleanliness, and since it didn't conflict with what he was supposed to do, he readily accepted.

For a qualified time traveler, there is no distinction between high and low tasks; it's all about how generous the rewards are.

Seeing this, Ren, who had accepted the quest, glanced at the quest panel.

Coincidentally, the mission objective is steadily closing the distance to Itogami Island over the sea.

At this speed, it should take less than half a day to arrive.

There's not much to say about that.

He will go there immediately once the target reaches the shore.

Incidentally, he zoomed in on the Itogami Island map again and was surprised to find that a conspicuous red marker had appeared on the island.

Moreover, it wasn't far from his location.

It's only two kilometers in a straight line.

"?"

The unexpected discovery on the mission map surprised Ren.

They are not enemies in Veldiana's mission.

Therefore, it seems that only someone with an opposing identity to Ren exists within the main storyline.

"You all stay here for now."

Ren stood up, clicked to track the red target, and a navigation icon that only he could see quickly appeared before his eyes.

"What... what do you want us to do?"

Seeing that Ren seemed to have something to do, Liana immediately volunteered.

Ren paused for a moment, then continued, "Then just follow behind them and learn how to be a servant. Watch carefully and learn well."

"?"

After saying that, Ren left the bewildered vampire sisters behind, pried open the window, and jumped off the balcony.

"?!"

When Ren suddenly decided to jump off the building, Veldiana was completely stunned.

What are they trying to do?

Is it really that hard to grant her request?

He actually jumped off the building!

At that height, even a vampire from the old generation would be smashed into a pile of minced meat, right?!

Although it won't kill you, the pain will be absolutely excruciating!

Even when her sister found her and explained the situation, Veldiana found it hard to believe that anyone in the world could subdue the Fourth Progenitor.

This brief encounter has further confirmed Veldiana's suspicions.

She strongly suspected that her sister had been deceived by the man she had just seen.

Nangong Nayue seemed to have thought of something, and her brows furrowed. "You all stay here, don't go anywhere."

After she finished speaking, ripples spread through the space, and a purple magic circle appeared beneath the witch's feet, causing the girl's delicate voice to disappear into the fluctuating space.

"Huh? She... she could she be... the Witch of the Gap?!"

Veldiana stared at the spot where the witch had disappeared, belatedly realizing what had happened.

Although Liana had told her before she arrived that their future master would be staying with the Witch of the Gap, she still hadn't been able to recognize Nangong Nayue's identity since they met.

Now, seeing the other party use spatial teleportation magic, the fear hidden deep in his heart was awakened.

After all, the name "Witch of the Gap" was a terrifying term for the demons of Europe.

Rather than being a demon-slaying officer employed by the national government, she was more like a ruthless machine for slaughtering demons.

At the same time.

After looking over the balcony, Ren flew down toward his target, a park near the coast.

Ren arrived at the scene quickly.

Although it was daytime, the park was completely deserted.

Or rather, there was only one person marked with a red dot.

It was a foreign girl with long, light green hair, dressed in light green ethnic clothing against a backdrop of the ocean and sky.

As if sensing Ren's approach, the girl turned her head slightly, allowing people to see her eyes, which were like deep lakes, and her beautiful face, which was both cute and powerful, reminiscent of a cheetah.

Chapter 283 I've always kept a low profile

The girl facing Ren revealed her cute fangs and smiled with an approachable expression.

"I didn't expect to be discovered by the person in question so soon after arriving on this island. Is my disguise not good enough?"

"Don't worry, even if you turn to ashes, I'll still find you."

Once you're on the system map, even if you transform into a man, you'll still have nowhere to hide.

He remembered that the Third Ancestor had the ability to change his form, but at most it was just a very basic change in appearance.

In High School DxD, even Loki, who is skilled in trickery and transformation, cannot escape his eyes, let alone this most basic disguise.

However, Ren was somewhat surprised that the first person he encountered related to the Feast of the Crimson would be the Third True Ancestor.
