Vampire Overlord System in the Apocalypse

Chapter 17 - Stop Being So Stupid



-----

Noah smiled a bit as she got to know a bit of Iris's wrath.

She was not that different from him.

However, she was rather good at making herself seem to be an innocent and shy girl.

She was in fact rather the beast inside.

Perhaps this was why she had a Skill such as Demon Phantom Fox and even Rage Mode fit her true nature.

"Sorry… But… I often keep those thoughts caged inside of my mind… Because they make me… go a bit crazy…" muttered Iris.

"It is understandable. I have also caged a lot of those feelings, of these thoughts. But now, I feel calmer and somehow, content. I know that as long as I do things right, I will achieve my goals. So, Iris, you better stay at my side and make yourself useful," said Noah rather proudly, as if he were the incarnation of an old and cunning Vampire Progenitor.

"O-Of course!" said Iris, behind Noah's cold words and expressionlessly, she could see that there was a very gentle person, that offered her a lot for very little in exchange… she couldn't help but admire him more.

However, Noah could not understand why Iris was not intimidated by his cold words and demeanor, he wanted her to be intimidated and loyal, but it seemed that she was always happy with him, making him think that he was doing a bad job at being an evil vampire master.

After all, inside of his mind, he really thought that he was being an asshole, but it seems that Iris could not see him that way at all.

"Anyways, who might that person be?" asked Iris.

"Right. Arthur," said Noah.

"Arthur?" asked Iris, quickly remembering the blonde and youthful crippled boy that always had a maid at his side.

"Yes. He is rich, weak, and bullied. The perfect match for us, right? I have also realized that if I convert him into a Dhampir, he might be able to heal his lost limbs. After all, in the battle against the Goblin Champion, our bones broke into tiny pieces a lot, yet they regenerated nonetheless, right?" asked Noah.

"That's right…" said Iris.

"See? If bones can regenerate, why wouldn't the ones of his legs?" asked Noah with a malicious smile.

However, Iris glanced at him with admiration, her eyes were even shining.

"Uwah, Noah-sama, you're such a benevolent person… Do you want to help Arthur regrow his limbs? That's so nice of you…" said Iris with a cute smile.

"What? What are you talking about? I am not nice, I am in fact a complete asshole. I want to use him as my Dhampir servant, so he can provide us with resources and money… I might convert his maid as well if things come to it," said Noah.

"Is that so? But that's still a pretty nice act of goodwill… Imagine the face that Arthur will make when his legs are finally back!" said Iris happily.

"Geh… Stop twisting the meaning of my actions! I am not doing anything out of goodwill, stupid girl," sighed Noah.

"Really?" asked Iris with a smug.

Noah was already popping some veins on his forehead out of anger!

"Cut it out!" he roared.

"A-Ah! Okay, okay!" said Iris shyly.

After a few minutes, Noah finished drinking his tea as Iris had left a few of her food aside.

"I-If you want to eat some, I have left a bit for you…" she said shyly.

Noah glanced at the food, it was a small portion of white rice with vegetables, and half of a chicken meat patty covered in ketchup, there was also a small piece of sausage.

"Iris, I don't need your food, eat it yourself," said Noah.

"But Noah-sama, you haven't eaten all this time! You need to have a full belly to always be prepared. And your mind is always clearer after a nice meal…" said Iris while nodding.

Noah could not help but think of Iris as a complete idiot.

But she might be right.

He perhaps needed to eat some meat to make his brain and thoughts go faster.

But he was rather tempted about it because he has not eaten meat in weeks.

Noah sighed, averting his gaze, and taking the used fork of Iris, grabbing the chicken patty and eating it without many delicacies.

"It is good," said Noah, as he glanced at Iris who was blushing.

"Eh? What?" asked Noah.

"N-Noah-sama, that's my fork…! I used it! M-My saliva is there…" she said.

"Hm? So what? Why would I care?" asked Noah angrily.

"T-That's… and indirect… kiss…" she muttered.

Noah was left speechless.

What is wrong with this girl?

For a moment, he began to regret having made her into his loyal servant.

Smack!

"Awuh!"

Noah smacked Iris's head with his fist.

"Stop talking such stupid things. Thanks for your food, but I am done with talking to you for the rest of the day. Go back to your seat, it's an order," said Noah.

"A-Alright!" cried Iris, walking away from Noah and sitting in her chair.

Soon after, the Break finally ended and the students rushed back to classes, including Arthur.

The day went by as usual afterward, with many hours of classes where Noah took a lot of attention, as the information taught was often all about monsters, dungeon, cores, and skills, so everything could come in handy.

It was already 7 pm when the classes finally ended, and Noah walked out of the classroom rather hurriedly, managing to evade his bullies by a pinch and reaching his room.

As Noah reached his room, he went to take a relaxing and warm bath, and then sat down to mediate a bit more.

"He's cultivating again?! Just how much is he planning to do?!" wondered the Blood Progenitor in anger, he was already getting tired of Noah and Iris's stupid interactions.

After one hour of meditation, Noah suddenly felt a strange wave of energy reaches his mind.

It was a call from Iris.

It seemed that Noah had a mental connection of sorts with Iris, and even discovered that it might even lead to them being able to talk through Telepathy.

Noah then began to hear the wave of voice… it was Iris… weeping?

"Iris? What is happening?!" asked Noah.

However, Noah could only hear her weeping.

"Is she getting attacked by her bullies? But she should be strong enough to take on their hits better now… or is she just crying?" wondered Noah.

It was rather normal for people that was bullied and suffered from depression to cry sometimes while being alone, even Noah had done it before, and imagined that it could be the case for Iris.

"It could be either of the two… And none would really threaten her life. But it would hurt my pride if she were being beaten and crying like that…" thought Noah, grabbing his backpack and quickly running out of his room towards the direction where he sensed Iris… the rooftop.

As he ran through the stairs, Noah could hear more easily that Iris was indeed being beaten, as he could hear the voices of others.

He slowly took a peek at what was happening, as there were three girls near Iris age, one had long red hair, the other had short blue hair, and the one in the middle, seemingly the leader of the trio had long blonde and shiny hair.

"What's wrong, useless pig? You don't like my kicking?!" laughed the blonde girl, hitting Iris' stomach.

"How odd, she is not using a lot of her strength, this shouldn't really hurt that much to Iris, why is she crying then?" wondered Noah.

"Fucking disgusting pig, keep crying!" roared the red-haired girl, hitting Iris's head.

"We saw you talking with a guy earlier, were you trying to seduce him or something?" laughed the blue-haired girl.

"Who is she even going to seduce? She is just an ugly ass bitch!" laughed the blonde girl, kicking Iris's head again.

For some reason, Iris kept weeping, asking for forgiveness while being in a fetal model.

Then Noah finally realized something.

Iris was having a panic attack… even as a Dhampir.
