Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

The cheeky Little Vampire that laughed at Brisingra was being reprimanded by their Vampire seniors, hitting their head with their fists as the little vampire kept complaining with their very high-pitched voice.

“Hey that hurts you damn…! Agh!”

“Please spare me! I’m sorryyyyy!”

“Dammit, stop hitting me already- ACK!”

Melascula kept getting cheeky and then going back to ask for forgiveness, they had quite the terrible personality. Some of the knights thought it was a she, while some thought it was a boy.

“So who is he?” Wondered Patricia. “Is he our new member as well?! Wait, a vampire?”

“Yes, Melascula is your new member,” nodded the Queen, walking to Melascula’s side and patting the vampire’s little shoulders, keeping the vampire from doing anything funny. “Melascula is the youngest Vampire of this Clan, at only 82 years of age, they’re considered barely a teenager. However, they got quite a lot of potential, due to their special Class.”

“Class?” Wondered Joustin. “I-I don’t know if that would be enough to turn her into a new knight… Um, is she a girl or a boy though? Patricia you called him a boy?”

“I did, isn’t he a boy?” Patricia wondered.

“…” Melascula glared at them talking about their gender as if they knew more than them. “I have yet to decide my gender, so shut up already!”

“D-Decide?” Heshmerie wondered, confused.

“Some Pure-blooded Vampires can be born without gender,” explained the Queen. “Or well, any sexual… reproductive organs. That’s what I mean. Melascula here is technically not a boy or a girl, though they’re very boyish, right?”

“Hmph! Your majesty, you shouldn’t be bothering to explain things to these fools!” Melascula said. “They clearly look down on us Vampires! I bet they believe we’re demons.”

“Well aren’t you descended from Demons?” Tomas wondered. “I’ve investigated this before- Actually! Perhaps the ability to be able to decide a gender later in your age is part of your demon bloodline. Demons technically have no genders but can choose any that fits their demonic desires and embody them the best. Sometimes they are none too.”

“T-That’s…!” Melascula was about to refute him but couldn’t find fault in his words. “D-Dammit, I guess so? Look I didn’t ask to be born this way! Uugh, it’s so embarrassing to talk about it!”

“Anyway, Melascula might be a bit unruly and badmouthed, but they have great potential and… I think they got good intentions,” Camilla said. “They clearly don’t want to be knights, but they will obey my words. Becoming part of your party will enrich Melascula’s life and give them valuable experiences they lack!”

“Oh, I see… So that’s why he’s with us, huh?” Patricia groaned. “But can he have better manners though?!”

“Bleeeehh!” Melascula was pulling their eyes wide while showing Patricia their long tongue to mock her.

“Look how childish they are!” Patricia complained. “I simply can’t believe this!”

“That’s enough Melascula,” said Camilla. “Also at what age will you choose a gender?”

“I-I don’t know!” Melascula complained. “And I don’t care!”

“Well, whatever…” Camilla shrugged. “Anyway, now that everyone is together, I hereby declare you the Magic Knight Squadron! Your task is to cooperate with every other soldier and knight and take down the remaining lingering threats within our kingdom, while protecting it in these harsh times! You will be given rooms to sleep in the castle, three or four meals a day, a monthly pay, and necessary equipment, with one free day every week.”

“W-We’ve been promoted!” Patricia celebrated.

“Yeaaaah!” Joustin jumped around.

“No way! We’re the Magic Knights Squadron?! So cool!” Heshmerie said.

“We did it sis!” Emerette said.

“Yes, we did!” Juliette agreed.

“Well, I’m glad for you!” Brisingra smiled. “I guess I’m also a Magic Knight too, huh? That sounds rather strange…”

“You don’t say… From Tower Magician to Kingdom’s Magic Knight.. It sure one hell of a jump…” Tomas muttered.

“Meh, what does it matter anyway? Bunch of losers, they’re all dying once we fight a decently strong foe anyway!” Melascula kept being a bother, as usual.

“Melascula! Cooperate with them, learn from them, and improve,” Camilla said. “These will be my orders for you, alright?”

“Y-Yes, your majesty…” Sighed Melascula, nodding.

“Now,” said Camilla. “You have the rest of the day to rest and recover from your battle, use it to get used to the castle interior. Melascula, you’re ordered to hang out with them and have a good time too.”

“E-Eh?!” Melascula complained. “But your majesty…”

“Obey her words already, Melascula!”

“You’re too antisocial, you need friends your age!”

“Also you’re getting on my nerves already…”

“Uugh! Okay, okay, okay! Stop yelling at meeee!” Melascula kept complaining and getting angrier, they had quite the rich personality. “Whatever! Let’s hang out and have a “good time” or whatever, bleh!”

“We weren’t planning on doing anything extraordinary anyway, we’ll go eat probably, I’m starving,” Heshmerie said.

“Yeah I am starving as well, I just hope we can get along, little vampire,” Patricia giggled.

“Hmph!” Melascula ignored them for most of the time.

However, Tomas and Brisingra were much more open, telling them their abilities and everything, and even talking more about their past, letting them connect a bit better with everyone else.

“So Melascula, I’m really curious right now, what’s your past? How did you get here?” Joustin wondered.

“Hmm…” Melascula didn’t want to say anything, but recalling the Queen made them hesitate. “I… Uh, well, I am the youngest of my Clan. Long ago we were freed by Queen Camilla from some ancient catacombs where we were sealed. We swore our loyalty to her after that, obviously.”

“Interesting… So that’s how there’s so many Vampires out of nowhere…” Heshmerie nodded. “So the Queen didn’t convert you?”

“Of course not! I was born and raised as Vampire!” Melascula said while angrily spouting cutely. “Hmph, honestly… If it wasn’t for our promise to the Queen and the contract, I would never ever talk to you at all.”

“Y-You’re such a prick…” Patricia glared at the Vampire angrily.

“Hah?!” Melascula responded with an even angrier expression.

The two confronted one another, glaring angrily at each other.
