My Daughter is a Vampire

“Daddy, do you want to add a top-notch processor to this smartphone since we are going to use the latest version of EOS?” Julia asked while sitting in front of a computer while typing a bunch of codes that were displayed on the screen.

“Nah! Just let Lily use the lower version processor with EOS 9. If we do end up opening this into a proper business, we will get a chance to upgrade everything.” Brian shook his head and answered.

“That’s not a bad idea. Even if we do go back, we could return here and slowly influence the technology in this world. This way we can earn lots of money.” Ely spoke while sitting in front of another computer.

“Come on, Ely! We are not going to think about the future in this galaxy. We have our own galaxy and that’s Milky Way. As for business, why would need to go do these kinds of business when I can literally earn dozens of planets with a single algorithm.” Brian rolled his eyes and denied her thoughts.

“But, that’s not a long-term plan. We need to have some sort of a long-term plan, don’t we? Besides, we should be more friendly to our universe. All of the algorithms and technology that you developed have been used for conflict in one way or another.” Ely didn’t back down.

Brian turned his head and looked at her with strange eyes.

“Are you seriously considering living here? I am already getting homesick. So, we are going to develop this smartphone as soon as possible, use nanotech to build a small tower to get enough signal, and sell these two the some of the respectable and rich families in this city.”

“After we earn enough money, we will simply leave. Besides, once they figure out the technology behind these smartphones, they might make their own version.”

Ely folded her arms and pouted.

“Humph! You might not have an interest in business, but I want to use my brain to earn money and become the richest person in the world. And, no matter what you say, I am going to do it.”

Saying so, she turned around and a virtual projection appeared in front of her. It was the virtual projection of the phone and she separated it into several small parts and started mingling with it.

Brian suspiciously glanced at her with confusion. He thought for a moment and a conclusion came to his mind. He released a deep breath and walked up to her chair.

He held her hand as he crouched. He showed a remorseful expression and spoke.

“Sorry for not understanding you, sweetie!”

Ely didn’t speak. She just kept her mouth shut.

“From now on, you will be the head of this project. Julia and I will follow your orders and do everything you ask us to do.” Brian continued.

“Really?” Ely’s eyes widened as she asked.

“Yes!” Brian smiled and nodded his head.

“Thanks, daddy! Yayyy! Let’s earn a lot of money.” Ely cheered as she quickly went back to her work. Brian smiled and walked up to Julia. He went closer and whispered.

“You won’t mind, right?”

Julia shook her head. She has seen how much Ely has sacrificed for her. Brian had a lot of wealth, so much so that he could buy anything he wanted. But, the moment he died, all of his wealth was frozen.

Because that wealth wasn’t dollars in his bank, it was planets. Since she couldn’t access that wealth, she quickly realized that she had to earn a lot of money for her sister.

Unlike Ely, Julia was a smart kid from a small age. To do lots of experiments from the age of seven, Ely had to build a perfect lab for her.

Technology was their roots but Ely didn’t have knowledge like Brian. She couldn’t develop lots of technology to earn enough money for her little sister.

That’s why she had to spend ten times more effort on writing an algorithm that Brian could write with ease.

Ely didn’t want to repeat the same mistake. She wanted to make money that they could use. No matter how much wealth Brian had in outer space, his death left them with few shares in Golden Wing Industry and some million bucks on his account.

For normal people, it wouldn’t cost much but for someone who was creating Time-Travelling Machine, it would cost a fortune.

Brian also understood the same thing so he didn’t let her feel sad for long. After confirming things with Julia, he finally returned to his seat and started working.

…….

Somewhere else in the Red Vermillion City,

“Mr. I don’t think it is possible to get you a job where I am working. It requires critical control over fire elements.” Zila stood in front of James and shook her head.

“Just call me James! And, I don’t need to just do that job, right? There must be something else that I could do. I am physically strong and I am ready to do anything you throw at me.” James immediately started convincing her.

Zila shook her head and said “Although there are some jobs that you can do, there is no place left for you to do anything. I am sorry but I am also an employee there. I can’t help you with it.”

James clenched his fist with frustration. He wanted to be close to her so that he could learn more about his family but he couldn’t find a single way.

“James, when I talked about the descendant of gods, I noticed the change in your expression. Have you perhaps met them?” Zila was quite suspicious of him from the previous moment but she didn’t ask anything. Now, seeing him alone and frustrated, she thought she could find a way to get information out of him.

“No! I haven’t.” James shook his head and spoke in a hoarse tone.

“Is that so?” Zila got even more suspicious hearing his tone. It felt like he wanted to meet them but couldn’t do it.

“Do you want to meet the descendant of gods? I mean, there is a regional contest of talent on our planet. If you manage to win, you can go to the Holy Land of Descendants of Gods.”

“What? Really?” James suddenly got excitement in his eyes but he quickly realized his own movement and calmed down.

“I mean, is it really possible to meet them? Aren’t they descendants of gods? Why do they want to meet the people from lower worlds?”

Although he tried to change his tone, Zila caught his lies easily but she was also crafty. She didn’t reveal anything at once but rather sighed.

“It is said that they want to groom powerful talents from our galaxy and send them to God’s Academy for study. They also grant one wish that the winner has.”

“And, it could be anything. Yes, you can ask for anything and they must provide it. That’s the benefit for the winner but the winners are only chosen by the people from Holy Lands.”

Gulp!

James swallowed a mouthful of saliva and thought.

‘If I win this…. Can I meet them? No, if I can free them, it would be even better… but do I really want to free them? They didn’t …….Damn it!’

James was frustrated but he was getting more excited to meet them.

Zila was studying every single expression he was showing. After a few minutes, Zila asked “Do you want to enter this contest? They would even let you leave this galaxy.”

“Really?” James looked at him with surprise in his eyes.

“Yes! If you win, they will do anything for you.”

At this moment, James had a conflicted expression. After a long minute, he finally clenched his fist.

‘Brian is here. He is the smartest man alive. No matter what kind of situation we face, he will definitely come up with a solution. He would do everything he can and even if he fails, this would be a chance for us.’

‘If I win, I will talk about it with Brian. If he can make an escape route, I will use it for them but if I can’t then, I will use it for us to leave.’

Slowly, he squeezed a smile and said “Can I also join? If possible, I want to help my friend leave this galaxy.”

“Of course, you can but before that, we need to test your talent. Hmmm….. How about this? I will show you my home. You still stay there today. After I return home during the evening, we will taste your talent.” Zila nodded her head and walked forward as she led him to her house.

“Thank you, thank you very much!” James immediately thanked her while following her. He was extremely excited.

But, Zila was even more excited than him. She had a big smile on her face. Her hands were trembling.

‘He must be one of them. He must be, right? This is my chance. This is my chance to live like a god…. Calm down, Zila! Calm down! You still haven’t confirmed it.’

But, at this moment, her heart was already winning against her brain. She could only think of the beautiful future that awaits her.
