He pulled out a stack of papers.
"This is our legacy to you. Sign this, and everything my wife and I left behind will be yours..."
"Old man, I have one last piece of advice for you... Go to Asia, to that faraway Eastern country... Use our inheritance as your travel expenses... child..."
"I, old Jonathan, never misjudge people. Perhaps there, the truth about your past can be revealed..."
"It will let you know where you really came from."
"It's time to return to your shadow, my good child..."
"Ludwig, we..."
We have never regretted adopting you... We are so proud of you.
Old Jonathan closed his eyes and passed away.
Ludwig sobbed by the bedside, unable to control herself for a long time.
...
...
"I am not human... I am not human..."
"But what am I?"
The silver-haired, blood-red-eyed girl gazed at her reflection in the mirror, gently stroking its cold surface.
"I am... a vampire born of darkness..."
After becoming alone again, she realized how out of place she was in this world.
She can only learn more about herself by finding other vampires.
The only clue engraved on the pendant that has been with her since the day she awoke points to an Eastern country on the other side of the world.
"I need to know what I am."
"You also need to know who you are."
She shed her English floral dress and slowly and gracefully changed into the vampire gown that had accompanied her in the coffin.
This means that Ludwig, the vampire girl, has ended her more than ten years as an English girl and embarked on a journey to the East.
Chapter 162 Intertwined Past
Ludwig's first stop on her eastward journey was continental Europe.
She did not travel directly to the East by ship, but first visited Germany—a country that seemed to have some connection with her.
As a vampire of unknown origin... why is she born speaking German? This is also a mystery that cannot be ignored, so she took a trip to Germany to find out.
Vampires can detect each other's presence by their aura, so the vampires who survived the war and were scattered throughout Europe quickly discovered her arrival.
The local leader of the German vampire clan received her. Although her ignorance was suspicious, she easily gained the trust of the vampires by using her exceptional beauty.
"Hey, who would doubt a simple, beautiful girl?"
"Besides, I really don't know anything."
This silver-haired little vampire may be naive, but he already knows how to use his beauty to gain advantages.
...
And so, she stayed in Germany for another ten years.
Although this is a long time for humans, it is only a fleeting moment for the immortal vampires.
During this time, she learned about the origins of the vampires, the Eternal Queen of the vampires who led them against humanity, and how she mysteriously disappeared in the 16th century.
With her exceptional talent and beauty, she quickly rose to the aristocratic class among vampires, thereby learning many secrets about them.
Having lived in the German vampire society for ten years, she had abandoned most of her human habits and transformed into a vampire through and through.
At that time, Ludwig, elegant, charming, and sophisticatedly self-serving, was already a well-known young lady in the German vampire community.
Although her heart remains "kind," this kindness has transformed into "kindness" from the perspective of the vampires.
Now, to her, humans are nothing more than fleeting passersby in her life, inferior beings whom she doesn't need to look at.
Just as an ape can never become a human, and a tiger can never become a cat, Ludwig, a vampire girl, has lived in human society for sixteen years, yet she is forever out of place in the human world.
After entering the world of vampires, she completed her complete "vampire transformation" in just a few years.
After all, vampires can only adapt to the vampire way of life. As a "blank canvas," she cannot be colored by human colors, and she was completely colored by vampire colors—almost an inevitable result.
Her demeanor was elegant and graceful, and she was well-versed in aristocratic etiquette. She was able to occupy a place in vampire society and also remain undetected in the upper echelons of human society, moving freely between the world of light and darkness.
Because of her outstanding abilities, her fellow vampires all recognized that she had already joined the ranks of high-ranking vampires.
She was very satisfied with this; now she had achieved her goal and knew "what" she was.
Ten years of living in the world of vampires allowed her to fully understand and accept herself.
Ludwig Yang is a noble and elegant vampire of the night, an eternal life form that transcends humanity.
...
For this reason, like many vampires, she also commissioned her own custom-made dress.
It can serve as a symbol of her vampire identity, showcasing her proud elegance and allure every time she wears it, proclaiming her noble status to all who see it.
Miss Ludwig stood in front of the mirror, quite pleased with her new and gorgeous custom-made dress.
"hiss..."
"In that case, I can be considered a legitimate vampire."
She poked her cheek with her slender fingers, as if she had remembered something.
"Wait a minute, it seems I've forgotten something very important... Ah, I remember now."
"I don't know about my past as a human. Logically speaking, all vampires are transformed from weak humans. A vampire as cute and elegant as me must have been human once."
... "
"It's not uncommon for vampires to lose their memories after the Embrace, but it's unusual for them to remember absolutely nothing like me. All these years, we haven't made any progress investigating here..."
She then pulled the pendant from a hidden pocket in her skirt. Because this pendant was completely out of place in the clothing customs of vampires, she had never worn it before.
"Yang... the writing of the East..."
"I guess I really have to go there."
She smiled.
"Gurgle... I hope the human girls over there... taste even better than those here."
...
...
...
After living in Germany for ten years and undergoing complete vampire transformation, the vampire girl Ludwig embarks on her final journey.
She eventually arrived in the East, but the vastness and immensity of the place far exceeded her imagination.
Finding her origins here is like searching for a needle in a haystack. Even though time is insignificant to vampires, she still spent twenty years searching for traces of herself on this land—or more precisely, traces of "herself as a human."
But, nothing was found.
Moreover, there are no vampires here at all. In her twenty years in the East, she had never seen a second vampire besides herself.
The search for her origins, amidst countless Yang families, left her feeling physically and mentally exhausted.
Despite her countless attempts to give up and return to Germany, this land of the East possessed an inclusive magic that gradually made her linger there.
"I may not have been born here... but this is truly a wonderful place to live."
Vampires are not a gregarious race, so for most vampires, having companions is actually irrelevant, and Ludwig is no exception.
In addition, she is a homebody and a literary girl, so finding a place where she won't be disturbed and where the living environment is comfortable has always been her idea.
There is no war here, no church's relentless extermination of vampires, and no need to frequently attend vampire social events; it is Ludwig's ideal place to live.
"In this gentle land, few people recognize vampires. I only need to disguise myself a little, and I can settle down here."
Ludwig smiled and sighed softly.
"Your background and such aren't really that important, are they? What's the point of knowing all that?"
"Hmph, they're vampires... immortal vampires."
Ludwig's long journey finally ended in a mountain town called "Chongchuan". There she bought an inconspicuous villa, where she wasted her talents and decades of her life, ushering in a terrible and decadent modern life that was completely inconsistent with her excellent first half of life.
...
This is the fragmented life of a girl named Ludwig Young, pieced together from Kane's diary and her resurrected memories.
Now, it has become whole again.
...
Her life, which had come to an abrupt end, was reconnected, but it was led in a completely different direction—
She believed that everything was her own decision... but in reality, it had already been firmly controlled by an invisible hand called "fate".
A human girl cursed by fate;
A vampire girl whose destiny was sealed;
Two completely unrelated memories clashed and assaulted her mind, yet the undeniable facts told her that they were both her memories—
Ludwig's consciousness was already overwhelmed by such torment and on the verge of collapse.
"who I am..."
"Aaaaaaaahh ...
She screamed shrilly, blood escaping as her consciousness dissipated.
...
In reality, the dissipated "Temporarily Staying in This Moment" blood energy distorts the surrounding time and space, and the enormous energy impacts the magical structure of the "Eternal Pure Land".
Before long, the blood curse barrier of the Eternal Pure Land will collapse under the impact of energy. Without the protection of the time barrier, the extremely weak Siriot is very likely to die immediately!
Every drop of blood in her body is extremely dangerous; if she continues to lose control like this—
"Miss!!"
If Coco breaks free from Ye Liuli, she will rush towards Ludwig without regard for anything else.
"Young Miss, Young Miss—wake up!"
hum-
She hadn't run more than a few steps when a strange light suddenly shone.
Then, a dark blue witch ghost slowly appeared amidst the distorted surge of energy.
"The Moon Shadow Witch?! It's gone out of control too!"
Ye Liuli exclaimed in surprise, her face paling as she cried out:
"If Coco! This blood energy will attack you! Our blood energy..."
It's unusable under the Queen's power... there's no way to fight it! Come back quickly! It's too dangerous!
But the maid, preoccupied with the young lady's thoughts, seemed completely oblivious and continued to desperately move closer to Ludwig.
"No, come back quickly—"
In that instant, Ye Liuli seemed to see her former self.
That version of myself who would risk everything for someone important and wouldn't listen to anything else.
"If it's possible!"
...
Suddenly, the Moon Shadow Witch floating in front of Ludwig moved.
However, it did not attack Ruo Keke and Ye Liuli with its out-of-control blood energy...
It turned around and floated towards Ludwig.
