After Taken as a Prisoner of War, the Vampire Queen Turned Me Into a Vampire and Made Me Her Daughter

Chapter 247: What are you doing!

While death was a common occurrence in life, the feeling it evoked was one of unfamiliarity.

However, Ji Bai held a different view on that matter. To him, the end of his mortal form signified neither a beginning or an end.

It was simply something ordinary and routine, like a daily meal.

He had realized a long time ago that the human and vampire aspects of his body did not share the same fate with each other.

Their relationship was more akin to two separate entities, bound together by a complex web of connections. Though they would clash and seek to destroy each other, there was always an underlying tension between them. In other words, they were enemies, bound in a cycle of loving and killing each other.

Upon confirming that his human side was ‘deceased’ and could no longer sustain itself, his vampire form would instinctively take over to ensure the normal operations of his body.

As long as his vampire side was not completely extinguished, he was, in the truest sense of the word, immortal.

Yet, despite his imperishable body, the pain of his human body being ripped apart and the icy grip of death as his nerves screamed their last were excruciatingly real and inescapable.

‘Do you really believe I’m that much of a pushover that you can kick my head around like a ball?’

“I swear on my nine lives, I’m going to scratch those bumps right off your chest if you don’t back off, you cleavage monster!”

A slender, long and pure-white bone scythe smashed Lin’s rigid body aside. Seizing the opportunity, Bai Ji speedily got up and spread her wings, attempting to put some distance in.

Her human form had been completely obliterated and needed time to regenerate, leaving her feeling exasperated, defenseless, and exposed… as if she had been deflowered.

However, despite looking disheveled, she was extremely certain that victory was within her grasp.

Her opponent was on her last legs, having exhausted a significant amount of energy in their previous battle. With no time to replenish her dwindling magical reserves, she was, in every way, at her breaking point.

In contrast, she had been lounging in the front-row seats, conserving her strength while waiting for the enemy to tire out; Her injuries had also completely healed following her transformation.

‘I’m at the top of my game, overflowing with power and energy! The outcome of this battle could not be any clearer!’

‘With strength and vigor flowing through my veins, victory is mine!’

“Growl…”

‘Uuuu… W-Well maybe it’s not as certain as I thought.’

A projectile made up of magical energy whizzed past Bai Ji’s eyebrow, narrowly missing her and shattering a withered tree trunk behind her into pieces.

“You really wanna do this, Boobzilla?” Bai Ji’s eyebrows rose.

All she got in response was a glassy-eyed stare and a movement that suggested Lin could no longer distinguish friend from foe.

“Fine, have it your way then. I couldn’t be happier. That smug face of yours has been pissing me off for way too long. Looks like the Heavens are on my side, as today’s the day I teach you some lesson in manners, you arrogant brat.” Bai Ji licked her lips. The massive scythe in her hands stood in stark contrast to her petite frame as she swung it effortlessly.

It was rather humiliating for her to have emerged in a weakened state, but that did not deter her from fighting Lin; She was more than capable of dealing with this monster with more rack than sense.

What possessed the girl was of no concern to her.

Regardless of the reason, one thing was clear: a sound thrashing was in order. Maybe that top-heavy monster will go back to normal after some discipline.

Of course, this reasoning was purely logical; It had nothing at all to do with her wanting revenge in the slightest.

Besides, Bai Ji was sure that Lin’s magic reserves must be depleted by now…

“Boom!” Several magical projectiles grazed her body as they whizzed past her.

‘…So much for that theory.’

In that case, the only advantage she had was close quarters, hand-to-hand combat.

Manipulating the few remaining magical particles in her body, she frantically racked her brain for spells that could be of help in this situation.

[Thundergale Pursuit]

[Tempestuous Charge]

Bai Ji’s eyes sharpened with concentration, her demonic wings snapping open with a wrathful flap towards the sky. With the sudden burst of speed like an arrow let loose from its bow, she shot through the air like a lightning bolt, leaving a trail of afterimages in her wake.

In the blink of an eye, she was at Lin’s side.

‘This strike will decide the battle!’

Using her scythe as an anchor, she launched herself forward, her legs covered in white silk sweeping towards her target in a scissor-like motion. Leveraging the immense strength given to her by [Soul Devourer], she used a grappling maneuver to latch onto Lin’s body and arm with unrelenting force.

The sudden loss of balance sent her tumbling backward, bringing Bai Ji, who was clinging to her like an octopus, along for the fall.

As she felt the silver-haired girl struggling relentlessly beneath her, a hint of satisfaction appeared at the corners of her lips.

From the current situation, it was clear that the girl had completely exhausted all of her magic reserves.

Without the enhancement of magic or sorcery, a vampire’s martial art techniques were no different than a human’s. With Lin’s paltry strength, breaking free from her hold was practically impossible.

After restraining Lin, Bai Ji whirled the [Soul Devourer] in her hand, planning to use the tip of her scythe to deliver a dose of ‘royal blessing’ on her.

The use of its blade itself was off-limits to her. If the [Soul Devourer: Goutermera] so much as grazed a victim’s skin, the legendary artifact would rip their soul from their body and draw it into the weapon itself.

It was a vampiric weapon whose mere mention struck fear into the hearts of foes, with equally dire consequences when used against allies.

To use that on her would be overkill; There was no need for such extreme punishment.

So instead, she settled for using the blunt end to teach the busty troublemaker a lesson.

However, Bai Ji’s plans were tragically cut short. Before she could reposition the scythe, Lin ceased her struggles and made an unexpected move.

She took the initiative by deliberately breaking her own right arm to escape the hold. Exploiting Bai Ji’s shock at this desperate move, she turned the tables in one fluid motion – pinning her former captor beneath her in a sudden reversal of positions.

“Ah?!” Bai Ji was shocked, trying to kick the silver-haired girl off of her, but her struggles were useless; A perfectly measured force pinned her knees and ankles beneath the girl’s body, leaving her with no room to move about.

As she reached for Goutermera, Lin’s remaining left hand clamped onto her wrists in a vice-like grip.

“Mhm!?” Bai Ji had not expected Lin to resist so fiercely.

Despite being unconscious, this well-endowed anomaly was proving just as difficult to handle as before… Could her combat instinct be so deeply ingrained in her that it had operated independently of her awareness?

Without Goutermera’s enchantment, Bai Ji’s strength was so pitiful she could barely lift a piece of cake. She was naturally no match for Lin’s more developed physique.

‘Darn it… She even dares use those dastardly flabs to pin me down. Is she intentionally trying to provoke me here?’

Despite Bai Ji’s struggles, it was no use; Her feeble strength was no match for Lin’s hand, which held her wrists firmly like a pincer.

“You rude milk dispenser! What’s so impressive about pinning someone down? Get off me! I’ll slice those indecent lumps right off your chest!” In a fit of rage, Bai Ji bared her fangs in an attempt to act fierce. However, to any onlooker, she would resemble nothing more than an angry white kitten with puffed-up fur – not intimidating in the slightest.

‘Tch, you think you’ve won just by pinning me down like this?’

Bai Ji inwardly sneered, when she noticed that Lin’s right arm had not regenerated.

‘She must be so out of juice that she could no longer heal herself anymore, right?’

‘I’ll let you have your fun for now. When your strength gives out, I’m going to…’

Bai Ji found herself unable to continue her train of thought.

The girl’s delicately beautiful, yet emotionless face had approached her, coming mere inches away from her own.

Both parties could sense the warmth in each other’s breaths and the subtle scent clinging to their bodies.

A drip of saliva fell on Bai Ji’s face, instantly snapping her out of her distracted state and bringing her back into reality.

A smile spread across Lin’s lips, revealing her sharp fangs. Tracing them with her scarlet tongue, she leaned in close and breathed into her victim’s ear.

As Bai Ji regained her senses and saw the stance her opponent had taken, she turned pale.

“…?! W-Wait a minute?! What are you doing?? How dare you! N-No, you can’t do that! That’s totally unacceptable! I-I’m your- Ah!…”

A wave of pain, followed by tingling numbness, surged from her neck and flooded her entire body.
