“Line up in order, don’t think about cutting the line, everyone has to register.”
“After registering, you can get free food, and everyone will be allocated a house.”
“You should really feel lucky, in a few days it’s the day for land distribution, and you’ve made it in time.”
“Hmph, we’ve been busy for so many days, but in the end, you get to enjoy it for free.”
“Ten acres of land, everyone gets ten acres, this is unbelievable, you newcomers are just too lucky.”
Amidst the muttered complaints and conversations of the surrounding security team, Raymond grew increasingly bewildered. What was this? House allocation, and land distribution? What was going on?
Filled with questions, he moved slightly closer to a nearby security team member, with a face full of smiles, and said, “Sir, could you please explain what you just mentioned about the house and land distribution?”
The porcupine looked at the tall man in front of him, feeling somewhat familiar. After a closer look, he realized he didn’t know him at all and shook his head.
“I’m not a ‘sir,’ I’m just a member of the security team. I came to Dawn City just a few days ago, like you.”
After saying this, he paused and looked at Raymond, who seemed to want to say more, and smiled, “Don’t worry, you are safe here. The Holy Light Bloodline is not an evil vampire, they mean no harm to us humans. On the contrary, you should be thankful for being chosen by the Holy Light Bloodline. As for the house and land allocation, the registration officer will explain it clearly to you in a bit.”
The porcupine patted the still somewhat anxious Raymond on the shoulder, feeling a bit emotional inside.
When he came to Dawn City a few days ago, he was even more terrified than this guy. But he still remembered the gentle tone of Kachar City Lord when talking to him.
When Kachar heard his coarse name and how he could only farm, the lord didn’t mock or ridicule him; instead, he comforted him.
The feeling of being respected for the first time was the most important motivation for him to suppress his inner fear and join the security team.
Praise the Life Goddess, praise Kachar the City Lord.
After a few days of interaction with the Holy Light Bloodline, the porcupine made a decision. If he could really get ten acres of land, even if he could leave Dawn City, he would choose to stay here.
Raymond didn’t know what thoughts the security team member, who was chatting and laughing with a vampire, had in mind, but what he said left Raymond feeling very complicated.
The Holy Light Bloodline, do they really not harm humans?
If these words were spoken by vampires, he would have doubted them.
But hearing it from a living human who wasn’t scared or worried talking with vampires, although doubtful, he found his suspicions weakening.
Following the long line, Raymond carefully observed the first batch of people registering ahead.
Most of them had the same expressions, initially showing fear and concern when being questioned by vampires, but their faces filled with joy upon receiving a small piece of paper.
Although their fear hadn’t entirely disappeared, he could clearly feel that these people seemed less afraid of the vampires in front of them.
Life Goddess watch over us, did these demons cast some evil spell on them?
But it shouldn’t be, Raymond recalled the conversations about the house and land allocation mentioned by the security team.
His heart started beating uncontrollably. Could this all be real?
Watching the people behind him, one after another, register and then leave with smiles to collect food, he felt a sense of inexplicable anticipation. Could the benefits mentioned by the security team really be true?
One by one, the line slowly shortened, with most people registering and receiving their food.
Finally, with both nervousness and anticipation, Raymond reached the registration officer.
He saw a vampire in typical form, unlike those who had morphed to appear more human-like. Instead, this one retained classic vampire features, with two sharp fangs and a pair of damaged bat wings with menacing spikes growing from them.
Raymond’s already relaxed heart grew tense again. This was a real vampire, even though he had encountered vampires outside, facing one directly brought enormous psychological pressure.
“You don’t need to be nervous. This is the order of the Council Lord. All Holy Light Bloodline members must maintain their original state when working. Rest assured, in Dawn City, you will be under our protection. We are not evil vampires and no one will harm you.”
Hearing the vampire’s words, Raymond’s tension eased a bit.
“Yes, sir.”
The vampire in front of him smiled slightly and said nothing more. Initially, they also found this order confusing; showing their vampire form to humans seemed to scare those timid souls even more.
But reality was different from their expectations. Humans proved to be much braver than anticipated. Initially, they were very fearful upon seeing the vampires in their working state, but over a few days of interaction, the fear faded, replaced by curiosity.
Some brave individuals even reached out to touch their wings, causing amusing and bewildering scenes.
“Name?”
“Raymond.”

“Family name?”
“Sorry, sir, I only have a first name.”
“That’s okay, many people here in Dawn City are similar. Age?”
“…”
After ten minutes of questioning, with Raymond sweating heavily, the vampire had asked nearly everything, almost making him spill his first date story. This registration officer was quite tough.
“Very well, Mr. Raymond, you have not lied. You have received a temporary residence permit for Dawn City allowing free housing for three years. After this period, you will receive Dawn City’s allocated ten acres of land. This is your identification and land grant certificate. Please keep them safe; losing them will render you immobile in Dawn City.”
“Mr. Raymond, if you become a permanent resident of Dawn City, your children can study in Dawn City’s school or learn magic at the Mage Tower.”
“Mr. Raymond, this is Dawn City, and on behalf of the Holy Light Bloodline Patriarch, Dawn City Lord, and Kachar City Lord, we welcome you.”
The solemn vampire registration officer stood up and expressed in a deep voice to Raymond.
Detecting lies was simple, as almost every vampire in charge of registration had mastered the relevant spells. A Second Circle Truth Skill could last for two Sunshine Hours.
As Raymond took the identification and land grant certificate, his mind buzzed.
He finally understood why those people felt so happy and excited.
Not only would he get a house, but he could also really get land, ten acres!
If the previous two benefits excited him, the information that followed profoundly shocked him.
If he became a formal resident of Dawn City, his children could study at the city’s school and even learn magic at the Mage Tower!
Overwhelmed by excitement, he couldn’t collect his thoughts for a long time.
“Life Goddess above, am I favored by you?”
Praise the Goddess! Praise the Holy Light Bloodline!!!!
