Chapter 60 (1/2)

“Line up in order. Do not even think of cutting queues. Everyone has to register.”

“Once you are done registering, you can receive free food, and everyone will be allocated a house.”

“You should feel really lucky. A few days later will be the day of land distribution, and you guys made it just in time.”

“Hmph, we have been breaking our backs for so many days, and but instead you guys get to enjoy it for nothing.”

“Ten acres of land, everyone could get ten acres of land. Bloody hell, you people who came after are just too lucky.”

Amidst the mumbled complaints and conversations of the surrounding security team, Raymond became more and more confused. What? What was the deal with the allocation of houses and land?

With a belly full of questions, he approached a member of the security team by the side and asked with an embarrassed smile, “Sir, may I know what is the distribution of houses and land is about?”

Looking at the tall man before him, Porcy felt that he looked familiar but he did not recognize him at all, so he could not help but to shake his head.

“I’m not a sir. I’m just a member of the security team, and like you guys, had only just come to Dawnbreak a few days ago.”

After saying that, he looked at Raymond wanted to speak but thought against it and laughed. “Don’t worry, you are safe here. The Vampires of the Divine Light are not those evil bloodsuckers. They bear no malice against us humans, and instead, you should be thankful because you were chosen by them. As for the distribution of houses and land, the registrar will explain to you in detail.”

As he said that, Porcy patted the nervous Raymond’s shoulder, and felt a bit emotional.

When he came to the city a few days ago, he was much more afraid than Raymond was, but until today he still remembered the gentle tone Lord Kaschar had when he talked to him.

When he heard of his rather oafish name, and that his only expertise was in farming, not only did Lord Kaschar not ridicule him, the latter even comforted him about it.

The feeling of being respected for the first time was the most important motivation for him to suppress his inner fears and worked hard to join the security team.

Praise be the Goddess, praise be Lord Kaschar.

After getting along with the Vampires of the Divine Light for a few short days, Porcy had made up his mind. If he really could get ten acres of land, forget being unable to leave Dawnbreak, he would choose to live here even if he could leave.

Raymond did not know what the thoughts of the sir from the security team who could chat with the vampires with a smile, but he still felt a little conflicted when he heard the latter’s words.

The Vampires of the Divine Light actually did not harm humans?!

If it had been the vampires who had come out and said that, he would have been skeptical.

Now, a living human, who had no fears or worries about talking to a vampire, had personally told him that, though. Even if he was doubtful, it was undoubtedly much allayed.

Following the long line, Raymond carefully observed the first batch of people registering.

Most of their expressions tended to be the same. At first, they were fearful of the vampires when they were questioned, but upon leaving after receiving a small piece of paper, there was surprise on their faces.

While their fears had not completely disappeared, he could clearly feel that these people seemed to be not so fearful of the vampires before them.

Goddess of Life above, did these demons cast some evil magic on them?

However, that should not be the case. Raymond remembered what the security team member had spoken about earlier, the allocating of houses and land.

His heart started to beats uncontrollably at this moment. Was this all real?

The crowd in the back looked at the refugees who were all smiled as they collected their food after completing the registration process, and an inexplicable expectation suddenly rose in their hearts. Was things were going to be like what the security team had said, that there were great boons awaiting them?

One by one, the line slowly shrank, and most of the people had completed their registration and had taken their share of food.

Raymond, amidst tension and anticipation, finally came before the registrar.

This was a standard-looking vampire. He did not know why the vampire had not taken the human-form like the vampires around him, but instead maintained the form of a vampire. He had two fangs in his mouth and a pair of torn yet menacing wings with hideous looking barbs on it.
