Behind her, Wang Xiaoming was leading his adorable maids.
Stepping out of the airport, Wang Xiaoming, shielding his eyes from the glaring sunlight, looked towards the distant city skyline.
"What a great place. It reminds me of a certain city with a population of million. That place is also a special city."
"A special city with a population of million? Is there such a city? Are there other hidden Demon Zones?"
Nangong Nayue, who was walking in front, curiously inquired, but her curiosity went unanswered.
After gazing into the distance for a while, Wang Xiaoming lowered his head to look at the petite Nangong Nayue.
"Miss Nangong, now we're in your territory. We'll be relying on you from now on."
"As per our previous agreement, I will be responsible for everything from now on."
Nangong Nayue nodded with a cold face.
"Then, I'll be in your care in the days to come, Miss Nangong. Although this is my first time here, I feel like I'm going to love this city. I'm looking forward to the life ahead."
Wang Xiaoming replied with a smile, but Nangong Nayue's expression didn't seem very happy.
On Gozo Island, after Agulola recognized him as the resurrected Cain, Wang Xiaoming simply seized the opportunity to acknowledge this identity. However, on the surface, Wang Xiaoming always emphasized that his name was Wang Xiaoming, not Cain.
But for Agulola, Vampire King = Cain, there was absolutely no problem with that!
Agulola was very puzzled by Wang Xiaoming's emphasis on his name, but since "Lord Cain" said so, she would just listen.
As for Liana and Xia Yacheng, who were present at the time, they didn't have the right to say anything. They just felt that Wang Xiaoming, this Cain, wanted to hide his identity. After all, the legendary Cain had irreconcilable conflicts with the gods and the Celestial Court, so hiding his identity wasn't a problem.
If Wang Xiaoming knew their thoughts, he would definitely clap his hands in joy.
Ah, yes, yes, yes, that's what you think, that's right!
Anyway, I never said once from beginning to end that I was Cain. I kept emphasizing that I am Wang Xiaoming. What does your search for Cain have to do with me, Wang Xiaoming?
Then, Agulola, who had confirmed Wang Xiaoming's "Cain" identity, obediently withdrew her Familiars and ran to Wang Xiaoming's side to express her surrender. After Agulola's surrender, Nangong Nayue appeared on the scene.
As the "Gap Witch," Nangong Nayue's task was to protect Xia Yacheng's archaeological work. She was also on Gozo Island at the time, but there were many werewolves outside, so Nangong Nayue went to deal with the other werewolves. Only after she had dealt with all the peripheral werewolves did she have time to enter the ruins.
As a result, when she entered the ruins, she saw Wang Xiaoming and his group of unfamiliar people. As a proud witch, Nangong Nayue was ready to attack as soon as she saw Wang Xiaoming's group of unfamiliar people. As a national attack mage and a high-level witch, she basically knew all the powerful people in this world. These people in front of her were too young and had never been seen before. In her opinion, they were definitely not powerful people, and as the "Gap Witch," she possessed the legendary Chains of Restraint forged by the gods, so dealing with these young people would be too easy.
In any case, capture them first!
However, as soon as her chains came out, she was surrounded by a group of black shadows. Her throat, heart, back, and various parts of her body were all pointed at by sharp black shadows at close range. Intuition told her that as long as she made the slightest move, she would be directly dismembered on the spot. These black shadows were incredibly terrifying weapons!
This shocked Nangong Nayue immensely. Although her current state was not human, her entire body was just a magical image, and dying was not a real death, it was the first time she had been controlled by an enemy without any ability to resist.
In this way, she was controlled by Lamia's Dragon Remnants. She didn't even have a chance to activate space control magic. The Dragon Remnants, a destructive gift from dragons, were just that simple, brutal, and easy to use, especially for bullying the weak!
After a brief exchange with Wang Xiaoming, she apologized to Wang Xiaoming for her sudden attack and recognized Wang Xiaoming's ownership of Agulola. At the same time, she acknowledged her status as an elector of Agulola, the Fourth Progenitor's vessel, and agreed to Wang Xiaoming and the others' request to go to Itogami Island.
Then, there was the scene above.
Nangong Nayue became Wang Xiaoming and the others' guide and was responsible for arranging all of Wang Xiaoming and the others' living needs on Itogami Island. As a senior national attack mage, a world-renowned witch, and the chief instructor of the special security force on Itogami Island, she had a very high status and was very rich!
Under Nangong Nayue's arrangement, a special motorcade came to pick up Wang Xiaoming and the others and then sent Wang Xiaoming and the others to the high-end villa district on Itogami Island. Nangong Nayue's residence was in the high-end villa district. She arranged for Wang Xiaoming to live there as well, so that she could communicate with Wang Xiaoming and the others in a timely manner and keep an eye on Wang Xiaoming at all times.
As for the Demon Zone access bracelets? Those things were prepared for ordinary demons. People like Wang Xiaoming would never need them.
After letting the motorcade send Wang Xiaoming and the others to the high-end villa district, Nangong Nayue herself went to the center of Itogami Island. She was going to find the higher-ups of Itogami Island to discuss matters related to Wang Xiaoming.
After all, the Fourth Progenitor's twelfth vessel was in Wang Xiaoming's hands, Wang Xiaoming's status as an elector, and the powerful vampires around Wang Xiaoming were all things that Itogami Island needed to be careful about. Vampires who could instantly kill Nangong Nayue, such characters had to be paid attention to.
Especially the most important thing, Wang Xiaoming, whom these powerful vampires were willing to serve as maids.
From Xia Yacheng and Liana Karlana, Nangong Nayue had obtained incredible news. It was this incredible news that made Nangong Nayue agree to Wang Xiaoming and the others coming to Itogami Island.
"Instructor Nangong, can you be sure that everything you said is true? Are you willing to be responsible for what you said?"
"Don't use that commanding tone to talk to me!"
Inside the high-level conference room of the Itogami Island Artificial Management Corporation, Nangong Nayue sat in a leather chair, crossed her legs, and rested her cheek on her right hand holding a folding fan, replying to the men across the table with an impatient expression.
"To be honest, I have no way of proving whether this news is true or false. The news comes from Xia Yacheng and the vampire Liana Karlana. They were eyewitnesses on the scene. According to their statements, they personally witnessed the Fourth Progenitor's vessel calling this man who claims to be the Vampire King Cain."
"And most importantly, after the twelfth vessel confirmed that man Cain's identity, she directly expressed her surrender and chose to stand by that man's side. She even showed hostility towards me when I attacked that man."
"Could it be that something else caused the twelfth vessel to misunderstand you?"
"Would you be hostile to someone you met for the first time and haven't even spoken to?"
"I would!"
!
!
Looking at the high-level official across from her who answered with a serious face, Nangong Nayue supported her forehead and sighed helplessly.
"I can't be bothered to argue with you. I'm just here to notify you that that guy's identity and strength are beyond my ability to handle. Moreover, he took the initiative to request to come to Itogami Island. I don't know whether his purpose is to use his strength as the Fourth Progenitor's elector to participate in the Feast of the Flame Light, or to restore his memories, but that's something you need to consider. After all, you, as followers of the Itogami family, know best what the real purpose of building this island is!"
After speaking, Nangong Nayue stood up directly from her seat.
"You guys consider how to deal with it yourselves. If his identity is fake, what are you going to do? If his identity is real, what are you going to do? I will only be responsible for the safety of Itogami Island as much as possible. This is my agreed-upon job. I won't care about the rest!"
A purple magic circle appeared out of thin air. Space control magic was activated, and Nangong Nayue's body fell backward, sinking into the magic circle, and then disappeared along with the magic circle.
The remaining high-level personnel of the Itogami Island Artificial Management Corporation couldn't help but frown.
The news that Nangong Nayue brought them was too explosive. As followers of the Itogami family, they knew what the real purpose of building this Itogami Island was. It was to be a sacrificial altar for the resurrection of the Calamity God Cain, because legend had it that Cain was cursed and could not walk on the earth, so Itogami Senrou built this city floating on the sea, because it was not part of the earth.
But they didn't expect that the role of this altar had not yet been put into play, and even the Fourth Progenitor they planned to arrange had not awakened, Cain had already resurrected and appeared first. This was completely different from what they wanted.
They really wanted to say that the man named Wang Xiaoming was not Cain, but that man had obtained the recognition of the twelfth vessel. After being recognized by the Fourth Progenitor, he was Cain!
Then, how were they going to deal with this Cain?
As the current rulers of Itogami Island, they do want to revive Cain, but the Cain they want is one who is revived with their help, and who will listen to their wishes. In short, they want a puppet.
But the Cain recognized by the Fourth Primogenitor outside doesn't seem like a guy willing to be a puppet.
Everyone focused their gaze on the man in the very center.
"What should we do?"
"Let the Lan Yu family's daughter go and test him first. At least we need to confirm whether he is Cain or not."
The man being questioned stated his plan expressionlessly.
"Of course, we still need to make the preparations we should. If the other party isn't Cain, then let him die at the Flame Feast. I think the three Primogenitors won't let go of someone impersonating Cain. If he is indeed Cain, we can also use the Lan Yu family's daughter to get closer to him. As a god, he might not listen to us, but he will at least listen to the voice of his subordinate priestess, right?"
His words immediately received unanimous approval from the others.
"Okay, let's do that!"
"That's right, that way there will definitely be no problems!"
"I'll go arrange it immediately and find a way to make them meet."
"Remember to arrange it naturally."
The upper echelons of the Artificial Island Management Agency quickly unified their decision and established a plan to deal with Wang Xiaoming.
They were going to test this suddenly appearing "Cain" Wang Xiaoming.
And this is also the reason why Wang Xiaoming came to Itogami Island.
Now that Wang Xiaoming occupies the identity of Cain, he naturally needs a base of operations, just like how he likes to find a force to help him do things when he enters each world.
Itogami Island, this altar established for Cain, is essentially Cain's territory, so as "Cain," he naturally has to return to his own turf.
As for how to make them recognize his identity as Cain, for Wang Xiaoming, who knows the plot, it couldn't be easier.
In short: Lord Xiaoming has arrived at his loyal Itogami Island!
415. The Elegant Maid Leticia
The upper echelons of the Artificial Island Management Agency had decided on their strategy to deal with Wang Xiaoming, and Wang Xiaoming had also arrived at the luxury villa that Natsuki Minamiya had arranged for him.
"Three stories? Not bad."
Looking at the luxurious villa in front of him, Wang Xiaoming nodded with satisfaction. When it comes to living arrangements, Wang Xiaoming doesn't really ask for much. As long as the bathroom and shower are well done, that's enough. In the Danmachi world, the Familia's residence, the Ideal, was essentially an old-fashioned building structure. When he first moved in, Wang Xiaoming thoroughly renovated it. There weren't any luxurious decorations, just the warm feeling of home, and the bathroom and shower had to be well done!
Back in the day, when he was idle online, filling out a survey questionnaire, "If you were to transmigrate, what would you care about the most?", Wang Xiaoming filled in going to the toilet and taking a shower.
If he transmigrated to ancient times, Wang Xiaoming was afraid that he would mentally break down. No toilet paper to wipe his butt, no way!
Therefore, being able to live in modern society, even if he wasn't living in modern society, as long as the hygiene and bathing could keep up, Wang Xiaoming didn't have any special requirements for other things.
"Let's go, let's go inside and take a look. We'll be living here for a while."
Leading Leticia and the other two, as well as the newly joined Aurora, the five golden-haired beauties entered the three-story villa.
Although it was said to be a high-end villa, it was built in the Japanese style, so those who know, know. Although it was said to be three stories, the actual area of each floor was very small. The first floor was a large living room and dining room with two sides of floor-to-ceiling windows, then the kitchen, toilet, and bathroom. The second floor had three rooms and a toilet. As for the third floor, it also had two rooms and a toilet, as well as an open-air balcony.
"Then, the rooms on the third floor are mine. One will be my laboratory, and one will be my bedroom with Esther. As for the rooms on the second floor, I'll leave them all to you."
After admiring the entire building, Wang Xiaoming divided the rooms according to the girls' opinions.
Three rooms, four girls, how to divide them? Naturally, they would be divided into pairs.
Wang Xiaoming lived in one room with Esther, and the other room was used as a laboratory. After all, the purpose of his coming to this world wasn't simply to help out, but to study the factor that allows vampires in this world to not be harmed by sunlight, so as to solve the problem of him and his vampire wives being burned by the sun.
Therefore, a laboratory was necessary. As for research equipment, Wang Xiaoming now had a pile of research equipment in his space pocket. Since he had the Campione world, Wang Xiaoming was no longer short of research equipment and various materials.
According to Wang Xiaoming's distribution, the girls began to choose their rooms. Leticia and Lamia, this pair of sisters, took one room, while the mischievous Lamia and the naive Aurora took another room.
After choosing their rooms, everyone gathered in the living room on the first floor again, because Natsuki Minamiya had come again.
After reporting Wang Xiaoming's matter to the Artificial Island Management Agency, Natsuki immediately returned to the villa area. After all, there was a group of powerful vampires and a body of the Fourth Primogenitor here, and there was even a guy who might be Cain. She had to keep an eye on them at all times.
"Is only black tea okay?"
Inside the hall on the first floor, Natsuki Minamiya sat on the sofa, looking at the black tea that Leticia had brought over and placed in front of her, and was a little dazed for a moment.
"Because we just came in, the supplies here are relatively limited, so we can only temporarily use the black tea we brought with us to entertain you. Please forgive us."
Leticia looked at the dazed Natsuki Minamiya and calmly explained in a low voice, maximizing her elegance and etiquette.
"Ah... oh, no problem, no, I should say thank you."
Natsuki Minamiya was shocked by Leticia's elegant performance. They had only just moved into this villa, and according to reason, they should have nothing, but when she made her first visit, the other party immediately brought her a cup of black tea, and with such perfect etiquette.
Elegant, too elegant!
In a daze, she picked up the teacup and took a small sip. As a black tea lover, she would make herself a cup of black tea every day when she was at home. After this sip, her eyes immediately lit up. It was obviously hastily brewed black tea, but the taste was great!
A maid who was good at brewing black tea and had perfect etiquette, and was so beautiful, was simply the perfect maid in her dreams. She wanted it! She wanted to take her home and have her serve her in a cute gothic dress!
However, she resisted the urge and didn't ask for it, because she felt it was impossible, and if she dared to ask for it, Wang Xiaoming would definitely slap her. This is my wife! My wife just seriously thinks that she should do what a maid should do, but you actually think of my wife as a maid!
Although Natsuki Minamiya is a cute legal loli, and also a super popular character in Strike the Blood, and can even turn into a tall and plump mature woman, but unfortunately, she is not Wang Xiaoming's type.
"Miss Minamiya, is the taste of the black tea okay?"
Leticia maintained her elegance and calmly asked Natsuki Minamiya.
"Ah... um, great, thank you!"
Natsuki Minamiya nodded and expressed her gratitude to Leticia.
"I'm glad you're satisfied."
Leticia nodded faintly, and then stood behind Wang Xiaoming. At this time, Wang Xiaoming spoke as the master.
"So, Miss Minamiya, after only a few tens of minutes, what's the matter that you've come over again?"
Natsuki Minamiya placed the teacup on the table.
"I'm here to ask if you are satisfied with this house. Although I'm very sorry, this is already one of the most luxurious residences on this island. After all, the area of the artificial island is limited, and all available area will be used as much as possible."
Wang Xiaoming pointed to Leticia beside him.
"I don't have any requirements for the residence, as long as I can live in it. If you want to ask if I'm satisfied, you should ask Leticia. As long as my Leticia is satisfied, I have no problems at all."
"Then, Miss Leticia, are you satisfied with this place?"
"As long as Master is satisfied, I have no problems. Master doesn't have any requirements for the residence, so I, as a maid, naturally won't have any special requirements for the residence either."
You two master and servant are really cooperative enough.
Although she was taken for a loop, Natsuki Minamiya also understood that these two master and servant had no objections to this residence. It was good that they had no objections, so she could monitor them from the side.
However, Natsuki Minamiya also understood Leticia's position in Wang Xiaoming's eyes because of this. Although all three of them were dressed as maids, this Leticia should be a role like a head maid, and her position in Wang Xiaoming's heart was very high.
"Besides coming to ask us if we are satisfied with this place, Miss Minamiya, do you have anything else?"
Wang Xiaoming also picked up the black tea in front of him, took a sip, and continued to ask Natsuki Minamiya. This was the black tea brewed by his wife, he couldn't waste it.
