Vampires exist in books, shows, and movies… BUT IN NEW ERIDU?!
Ellen Joe discovers her quiet classmate Phaga isn’t just reserved—he’s a vampire looking for a job!
Between school...
He took a deep breath, calming his heaving chest, and reached into his bag with his white-gloved hand.
He soon pulled out a business card, handed it to Nicole, and said:
"Nice to meet you. My name is Kovi Kunmutu, a top lawyer at TOPS Financial Alliance's law firm."
"Kovi...Kunmutu!"
Nicole instinctively took the business card that Covey handed her and stared blankly at the name on the card.
Nicole was startled when she saw the three characters "Kunmutu".
Is this person's surname Kunmutu?
What is his relationship with Fagga?
Moreover, even if Fagga is not afraid of the sun, why is this person not afraid of sun exposure?
"Oh, it seems you know the surname [Kunmutu]."
Kovelio was somewhat surprised; he had assumed Nicole would simply use "Kunmutu" as a common surname.
"Of course I know, don't underestimate my intelligence network."
Nicole bit her fingertip, instinctively taking a step back, and said warily, "Kunmutu, the only surname of the vampire clan that still exists today!"
"Why...aren't you afraid of the sun?"
Although Nicole knew that Covey was unlikely to answer, she asked anyway.
"Because I'm not a pure-blooded vampire!"
To Nicole's surprise, Covey actually answered.
He smiled, and seeing that Perlman had already walked over, he followed him onto the airship, saying as they walked:
"Without inheriting power, there is no need to fear the sunlight."
"This is what being mixed-race is like..."
Watching Kovi's retreating figure, Nicole felt a headache coming on and muttered to herself, "TOPS has vampires, and vampires are even helping Vision Industries? What the hell!"
But Nicole had no time to think things through; from afar, Billy's excited voice could be heard:
"Nicole, we're here!"
Hearing the sound, Nicole turned around abruptly and saw that her friends from the Rabbit House had finally arrived. She was overjoyed and raised her hand, shouting, "Anbi, Nekomata, and Billy, hurry up!"
"They're here...don't rush them."
The cat finally arrived, and whether it was exhausted or for some other reason, it immediately jumped into Nicole's arms and mumbled:
"I'm so tired, I want Nicole to hug me."
"Hey, Nekomata, stop breathing on my belly!"
Seeing the cat pounce on her again, Nicole blushed and wanted to push it away, but she was also reluctant to do so.
Nicole glanced at Ambi, who was still sulking, and said with a wry smile, "Alright, Neko, get up quickly. Billy ran here with you, and he wasn't this tired!"
"Hmm, how is that possible?"
The cat heard this again and immediately pulled itself out of Nicole's arms like a radish, staring blankly at Billy.
Soon after, the cat cried out, "Wait a minute, Billy! When did you develop such stamina?!"
"Hmph!"
Billy proudly raised his head and said boastfully, "Because I've switched to a new anaerobic breathing system, which is more suitable for running!"
"Oh no... this is terrible!"
Billy was only halfway through his show when he suddenly realized something was wrong. He pressed all ten fingers to his face and exclaimed in horror:
"I'm doomed, I can't switch back to aerobic breathing!"
Anbi glanced at it and said expressionlessly, "Who told you to assemble yourself with cheap parts again?"
"How can you blame me? Our Rabbit House's financial situation..."
"Alright everyone, let's get on the airship. Forget about Billy. He's a robot anyway; he won't die from breathing a little less oxygen."
As they were talking, Nicole urged everyone to get on the airship quickly, and Cat and Billy obediently went on board.
Only Ambi was left behind. Nicole thought Ambi was still sulking, so she went to Ambi's side, hugged her tightly, and comforted her:
"Hey, Anbi, are you still arguing with Nekomata?"
"It's not the cat's fault..."
Anbi's gaze drifted quietly to the side, and she said weakly.
Seeing Ambition's expression, Nicole didn't believe her at all and deliberately asked, "Then what's the reason?"
“Because of the rope maker,” Ambi replied.
"The rope craftsman? What happened to the rope craftsman?"
Nicole suddenly realized, "Right, now that we've made it through, who's going to protect the ropesmith? Will Ryan be left without anyone to rescue him?"
Amby shook her head: "No, we ran into Victoria Housekeeping on the way."
"Then what are you still worried about?"
Nicole tilted her head, somewhat puzzled.
Judging from Fajia's situation, Victoria's domestic service should be pretty good, right?
The rope maker won't get hurt, so what is Ambly worried about?
Ambition sighed and said:
"No, I'm worried that once the rope makers work with other teams, they'll become acutely aware of the difference in service quality and won't commission us again."
despair!
Nicole stopped walking, her body suddenly stiffened, and her eyes blinked rapidly.
