The Birth of the Vampire Princess

TN: Little changes, Magic: xxx → Magic Power: xxx

「Change the『Vampire Lord』? Are you asking to change it back to just a vampire? Not impossible, but there are significant disadvantages? Why?」

…To me, the『Vampire Lord』is my father.

I am not officially the heir to the throne. So I should not be Lord forever.

「That’s not true…」

Yes, I don’t think dad and mom care about any of that.

But then I ran away. I abandoned everyone, even if my mom told me to. I don’t like the idea of me calling myself a lord like that… I know it’s just self-indulgence.

「…All right, but let’s just keep the effect in mind and change the name instead of degeneration.」

Well, for me, I’d prefer degeneracy…

「You have decided to destroy humans by any means necessary, by any means necessary, haven’t you? The increased status effect of the Vampire Lord is necessary for you. When you were slain, you would have died if not for the increased status of the Vampire Lord.」

Hm~mm, I see.

Okay, I’ll take it then.

「Then we need to decide on a name… You are the daughter of the King of Vampires. Whether you refuse the throne or not, it is an undeniable fact… Then, Princess. The『Vampire Princess』. I give you this name as the destination of the new vampire.」

『Vampire Princess』.

That’s a rather common name in Japanese novels.

「!? I-I thought it was a nice, rather stylish name, but there is a first-timer…」

What are you depressed about?

「…I’m sorry. T-Then, it’s time to say goodbye. It seems that most of the regeneration of your body has been completed, so it’s time for you to regain consciousness. Once you regain consciousness, please wait for a few days until the Demon King’s army arrives.」

Yes, I understand.

「Then I guess I’ll have to interfere with your consciousness from time to time in the future, but for now I’ll bid you adieu… See you soon!」

Yes, then…

……No wait, I didn’t say last……

◆◇◆◇◆

When I woke up, the moon was still visible and the area was pitch black.

As I slowly got up, I noticed that my clothes were torn diagonally. I see, this is the part where I was cut. I don’t remember it at all.

I looked around and saw dead bodies lying here and there. I don’t remember this at all, but I think I probably killed him. I saw blood on the hands and feet.

Haha, he looks so dumb and dead. It’s a good feeling.

But I’m curious about what Isuzu-sama said at the end.

She said『I’m going to interfere with your consciousness from time to time?』. Well, I have no way of knowing that.

「Now… Ah, yes.《Status》.」

I’ll have to see if it has changed properly.

Uh-huh,『Vampire Lord』is properly changed to『Vampire Princess』.

The『Vampire King』…It’s『Vampire Princess』now, but the effect『doubling of status and potential』. This allows me to retain this high status, which is unusual for a lvl 10.

In addition, the effect of『Avenger』doubles my status against humans. In other words, all statuses are over 1000, which is enough to defeat my father in the daytime.

Moreover, I am still at Lv10 and still in the process of growth. Depending on my efforts, I should become much stronger.

In fact, I am afraid of the current『heroes』who have higher potential than this.

「Fufufu…fufufufufuahahahahahahahahhahahahahaa」

With this much power, I can do it.

I will now be the despair of mankind.

I will return the despair they have given me with even more despair.

I am willing to go to any lengths to plunge humans into the depths of despair and kill every last one of them.

…Wait and see, humans. I’ll make sure I kill them all.

◆◇◆◇◆

「The knight you left behind in the vampire village was murdered?」

「Yes. Of the 24 people who were stationed there, 21 have died. The remaining three returned home… According to them,『it was only one vampire child that did it』.」

「…A vampire child? Is this the survivor Noin was talking about? …Damn, I’ve kept that nasty bastard alive.」

「How may I help you? Shall I send the knight again?」

「Oh… But there’s a good chance she already left the village. We don’t know how she’ll react. Tell him to be careful around the village… Well, no problem. No matter how strong the kid is…」

「She will be no match for a hero.」

◆◇◆◇◆

―――This is hell.

「Oi, don’t hold back. Keep training.」

―――Why me, why me, why me.

「Can’t you hear me? …Oi!」

「…yes, I can hear you.」

―――Why do I have to fight to protect these people?

「You are a tool. You are a tool to protect mankind, to protect us who were created by Misery-sama. If you understand that, then get back to your training!」

「……yes.」

―――Someday soon, I won’t even be able to think like this.

―――Someone, save me.

AN: Here we are, finally, a break: …….!

From the next issue, we hope to bring you the story of the other main character, the hero, in tandem.

Also, I haven’t decided on the title at all.

Is it okay to confirm the tentative title as it is? Or I’ve been thinking about whether I should change it……

I changed the status notation a little. The status of chapter 3 will also be changed later.
