Because of a little girl's interference, a new class suddenly appeared in the Dawn Guardian organization, and that was - Knight of the Light!

Correspondingly, at the same time as the birth of the high-end and high-grade Holy Light Knights, the Holy Light Church and the belief in the Holy Light also began to take root in the Dawn Guard, and began to quietly crowd out and corrode the faith of those believers who were not very firm in the first place.

After all, compared to the Nine Holy Spirits, who gave faith but did not necessarily get anything in return, the 'Holy Light', which was ubiquitous and always responded to more or less as long as you prayed sincerely, the golden energy full of attributes such as hope, justice, courage, sacrifice and protection, quickly brought down most of the people in the Dawn Guard, including their leader Isran......

For they, the Dawn Guards, have learned the true meaning of the Light from the mouth of their great Magician of Light, Her Excellency Anne Crownguard!

???? Holy Light ????

It is not just a belief or a religion, it is also a philosophy, a positive way of life, a divine power that gives spiritual strength and spiritual guidance to its followers.

For those who truly understand the Light, faith is not the worship of a god or a deity, but a way of life to be practiced by example.

The Light is an emotional and sensory feeling, evidence of a connection between the self and the world......

And the reason why people can feel emotions and know that they exist is because there is some kind of divine power in the places where those emotions emerge.

Its name is the Light!

That kind of power can make people feel the existence of the world, it acts on people who are willing to believe in it, and it seeks to change people's perception and spirit all the time.

And it is with these changes in perception that people can also change and gain the power to change the world......

As long as there is that firm faith, as long as the light is still shining, no one or being, even the gods in the sky, will no longer have the right and possibility to deny or let the world deprive people of their right and existence!

“……”

(???? ▽????)

Anne didn't care about the Dawn Guard and their new Church of Light, because she was now looking down at the castle, watching the Paladin's apprentices who were sweating with blades in their hands, and their hands and bodies were glowing with golden light from time to time.

"Finally, a little bit of fruition!"

o(?? ω??) o

Seeing those paladins working so hard, this couldn't help but make Chief Archmage Anne, who was sitting on the guardrail of the arrow tower above the gate of the castle, dangling his feet and looking at the bustle and scenery, felt very, very satisfied.

Because, with her unremitting efforts, other places don't know, at least, here at the dawn guard, those eight holy spirits or nine holy spirits or something, that kind of messy belief no longer has a market! The all-pervasive, omnipotent and easily responsive Light has taken over in a very short time the place in the hearts of believers who originally belonged to some of the Holy Spirits, and has gradually become unshakable!

"Tibbs, may the great light continue to flicker them......"

(*?? ︶?? *)

（…… ）

(￢?? ￢。 )

It's been almost a month since Anne came to the Dawnguard and joined the organization......

It's rare that Anne has really stayed here in this Dawn Guard Fortress for about a long time, and watched those people become more and more like a qualified paladin under the personal guidance of her own Archmage of Light, 'Anne Crown', and the renovated and cleaned Dawn Guard Castle is becoming more and more like a 'Dawn Guard'.

They even installed large mirrors on the top of the castle that could reflect the sun, so that beams of bright sunlight could shine into the slightly gloomy castle canyon like holy light, so that those 'sun cannons' could provide lighting and attack the vampires who dared to disturb the castle at dawn during the day.

Yes, it's an attack!

Because, for more than a month, the vampires of all kinds, strong and weak, more or less, have never really given up on the assault on the castle guarded by Dawn......

Perhaps, as the bald uncle Isran said, this is the fate of the open recruitment? While countless people in Skyrim knew about the existence of the Dawn Guardians and flocked to them, the vampires also knew about their existence and purpose, and were attracted here for various reasons.

However, what they didn't know was that they had no idea if the reason why the vampires frequently attacked their castle at dawn was simply to destroy their professional vampire hunters, or if it was for some vampire princess they had found and brought back to the castle.

After all, almost all of the now mixed members of the Dawn Guard were more or less aware of the existence of a female vampire. Presumably, those vampires, those Vakihar vampires with some kind of purpose, must also know, right?

It's just that Isran and the others, who are still comprehending the path of the Holy Light and working hard to train paladins, don't have time to care about that, they just bury their heads in development, and gradually manage the castle of the dawn guard and the canyon where the castle is located like an iron cylinder, basically eliminating the possibility of any vampires infiltrating or attacking.

"Huh? Are you here? ”

o(゜▽゜*)??

Anne turned her head sideways and greeted a female vampire with a hood on her head as she crept out of the doorway of the arrow tower behind her.

Obviously, the other party is the vampire princess Serana who has had to cooperate with the Dawn Guards and has been staying here under the supervision and protection of the Dawn Guards!

“……”

"I'm getting more and more disgusted with this place, the sunlight and the growing light from their guys......"

Serana walked up to the little girl, followed them towards the bottom of the castle, and looked for a while at the flat ground in the canyon that was about to be reduced to a training ground, and then involuntarily tightened her hood.

Although Serana, as a 'daughter of Cold Harbor', her strong strength and pure bloodline make her not worry about being burned by the sun, at most her ability will be slightly weakened in the sun, but those increasingly intense holy lights still affect her.

Because, she was afraid of those powers called the Holy Light, and those Holy Light powers would undoubtedly and could easily hurt her!

"That's ......"

く(＾_??) ゝ

"Do you need someone to infuse and transform you with the Light right now? That way, you won't have to be afraid of the sun and the light anymore! ”

|?????? ω????)??????

Given that they have been familiar with each other during this time, Anne thinks that if the other party is willing, she can completely infuse the holy light directly into the other party's body, and then, purify the vampire blood and those messy curses and souls in the other party's body, and let the other party completely get rid of the identity of a vampire?

Of course, in that case, the other party will not be a vampire princess at that time, and at the same time, it will no longer be a human, but a humanoid holy light creature, just like the kind of hexagonal plate battery called Naru?

“……”

"Thank you for your kindness, but let me think again......"

After being a vampire for so many years, and now she suddenly made herself change her style, dealing with those Holy Light energies that she didn't know too well, and even changed herself, so Serana must have scruples, which made her hesitate again, and shook her head regretfully to reject the other party's kindness.

"Alright then, if you change your mind, you can come to me at any time!"

(???????? -)??

If Anne had been here at dawn or in this world, she would have kept her promise! However, if she runs away to play in another world, then there is no need to say any more, because the other party will definitely not find her.

“……”

Serana didn't say anything more, just stood beside the little girl, and then silently looked down, at the training of the paladins and the shocking rows of wooden stakes.

"Hey!"

(o?? ▽??) o

"Sister Serana, you vampires have been killed hundreds of them in the past month, don't you feel sad and sad when you look at that vampire head over there?"

?? (ψ｀▽′)╭??

Anne asked softly, pointing to the relatively powerful vampire heads in the open space between the Dawn Guard's Paladin Apprentices and the Crossbowman's Training Ground.

Because she found that the other party's gaze stayed there several times, but it was strangely not sad?

"Sad?"

"Huh! Then tell me, why am I sad?! ”

Serana was stunned for a moment, followed the other person's hand to look over there, and after looking at the shriveled vampire heads again, she asked with a strange smile.

"You're a vampire, they're vampires, shouldn't you be sad?"

∑(?? △｀)？！

Although she is often heartless, and she never likes to take into account the feelings of others, she still loses the saying that 'things hurt her like that'.

“……”

"Well, little one, I have to make two things clear to you: first, I am not a vampire of my own ......"

At this, Serana paused.

She remembered what had happened...... Countless years had passed, and she had slept for thousands of years, but once she remembered it, she still remembered it so vividly, even unforgettable?!

For female pure-blooded vampires, especially her 'daughter of Cold Harbor', who was transformed by Morag Barr herself rather than bitten by a vampire, the process of her transformation has always been something she avoids...... Because it is akin to some kind of brutal and unspeakable aggression against women......

Anyway, it should probably be the constant abuse, which put her in a half-life-half-dead state, so that she basically lost most of her life characteristics, but her soul did not leave, and she was in a state of 'death' in biology and 'life' in the occult, and finally, she became a vampire under the influence of Morag Barr's power?

So, she hated her father, and she hated being a vampire, and never put herself alongside the vampires, even if they were really her kind.

However, these things were no longer important, and she was not very willing to recall, so she shook her head and breathed a sigh of relief before she continued:

"Second, unlike those guys, I don't want to destroy the world or rule the world, and I don't want to engage in those conspiracies or be enemies of the whole world, so what they do has nothing to do with me, I just woke up from the cave tomb?"

"What does it matter to me whether they live or die, I don't know them......"

However, Serana could guess what her mother, Belelica, had to keep her in the sarcophagus of the cave in order to protect her...... Still, she was resentful and angry that she had been locked up in that small space for thousands of years, and that she had been screamed and beaten when she woke up.

She believed that her mother had never considered her feelings, and that was what had allowed her to reach some sort of consensus and cooperation with the Dawn Guards.

"Okay......"

(lll￢▽￢)

"But are there really that many of you vampires? During this time, you have also seen that they come here every once in a while to make trouble, and they have all been killed so many and have never given up, how many of them are there? ”

(*^﹏^*)

Lately, the Dawn Guard castle has become a routine of eating, sleeping, training, and fighting vampires!

Anne, who felt that life was getting more and more boring, if it weren't for the fact that those Paladin apprentices hadn't finished training, she might have left to play somewhere else!

And, in the past month, she'd heard that in the north of Rift City, Ulfric Stormcloak and his rebel army were losing ground against the growing flame demons, and were now almost defeated to the tower of the Temple of Talos, not far from the destruction of Stormhelm?

And the Imperial Army in the south, that's even more incredible!

The general Tullius, the Empire's supreme military governor in Skyrim Province, and his Imperial legionnaires, after several great defeats, directly lost the whole of Phocles under the onslaught of that Virgina Greymane, and fled directly to the northernmost lonely city with the remnants of his defeated army, the lords of Phocles and some nobles.

Perhaps, if she gets bored one day and returns to the Fire City to take a look, maybe the entire Skyrim Province will almost be finished by the fire elemental clans she brought out, right?

"How many vampires are there?"

"Annie! Trust me, you're not going to be able to figure out that number...... You also know that there are not many people in this world who covet eternal life, even the distorted eternal life...... Initial embrace, bloody vampire fever can easily turn a person into a vampire, and that's just a bite to go, much faster than the Dawn Guard's open recruitment and training! ”

"But...... How's that, little one, do you want me to take a bite? ”

"Really, it doesn't hurt at all, and besides, it will give you immortal life and incomparably powerful power......"

A month later, Serana, who had already known each other, suddenly asked jokingly as she spoke.

However, whether she was just joking casually or really wanted to do it like that, I'm afraid only she knows.

Perhaps, it's both?

"Immortal ...... of Life and Power"

(￢д￢。 )

"Sister Serana, your understanding of strength and immortality is too shallow, and your strength is so weak that you can't even beat people with one hand, do you think people will be fooled?"

(ˉ▽ ̄~) cut ~~

Anne says she's seen all sorts of guys seducing her in front of her, and now, the vampire sister named Serana is undoubtedly the worst of all to tempt herself with that boring vampire's abilities and bloodlines!

In her opinion, it might be more tempting to take a lollipop or something! Or is it naïve that she will be fooled and deceived as easily as her stupid and stupid bear Tibers?

（…… ）

(⊙?? ⊙)

"I knew ......"

"But, little one, I always felt that you seemed stranger than any mage, or even any kind of being, I had ever seen!"

"Or ......"

"You want to be stronger? You can't really be one of those saints of the god of light, right?! ”

In short, it was a very strange feeling for Serana, because inadvertently, she always felt that the other party was even more terrible than the demon god she remembered, the soul reaper, the vampire creator Morag Barr, the king of Dedra, the king of rape?

"However, the Holy Light is the Holy Light, so there is no 'God of Holy Light'!"

(lll￢ω￢)

"However, are people really as good as you say?"

(??????.??????)????????

Anne was shocked, and almost thought that she had revealed her stuff, but fortunately, she was sure that even if she had lived for many years, even some well-informed guys, it would never be easy to see through her.

“……”

After pondering for a moment, Serana nodded slightly.

"Yes!"

"You really feel like that, you're really powerful......"

Although now, the other party looks like an ordinary little girl, but when she thinks about the other party's magic of light, and then thinks about the way of the paladins and the new faith that the other party taught to those dawn guards, she always has a faint feeling that the other party is a bit like a god patron who represents light and is still a saint who has come to Skyrim Province to spread faith?

However, she couldn't figure out who the righteous gods who were in charge of the light and the kind of righteous gods who seemed to be specialized in restraining the power of the undead. Also, what kind of existence is the 'Holy Light' that the Dawn Guards chant and pray silently for?

And if she had scruples, and was afraid and jealous of those holy lights, she might not be able to resist the other party's desire to try to infuse herself with the holy light and expel that curse.

"Hah! That's right, of course people are the most powerful of the kind!! ”

o(*?? ︶?? *)o

“……”

Looking at the other party's sudden change of words and the expression and movements of the little girl, Serana suddenly didn't know what to say...... Anyway, she always felt that the other party seemed to be hiding something.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Suddenly, without waiting for Serana and Anne to say anything, a rapid ringing of bells came from a distance, and then, at the mouth of the castle where the Dawn Guard was located, the Dawn Guards shouted and sounded the alarm, and hurried back into the valley.

"Huh?"

(?? ˊ????????)??????

"Looks like another vampire is causing trouble......"

?? (????????)??

Hearing the bell, Anne didn't have to think about it to know what was going on, and apparently, it must have been those boring vampires who were making trouble again!

But just in time, she happened to be a little bored today, so let's continue to do daily work and play with those vampires?

“……”

"This time, there seem to be a lot of them......

"And ......"

Serana suddenly looked up into the sky, and above, thick clouds began to block out the sunlight, making her feel much better, and at the same time, it also made the 'sun cannons' that reflected and gathered the sunlight above the castle of Dawn ineffective.

She knew it was a vampire spell!

Obviously, the vampire who came to raid the Dawn Guard Fortress today seems to be a little different from the previous ones?

'Beep~!! ’

'Array! Array! ’

'Dawn Guards! Paladins! Come and get in line! ’

'Quick! ’

'Obey: archers in the back, crossbowmen in the flanks, paladins in front!! ’

Soon, below, under the command of Xi Lang and the bald uncle Duran, who had given up his status as a vigilante to officially join the Dawn Guard, a paladin dressed in silver fine plate armor, wearing the Dawn Guard badge battle robes, and holding shields and swords, quickly set up a phalanx of hundreds of people on the flat road between the training grounds.

On either side and behind their hundreds of men were rows of archers, as well as crossbow-wielding marksmen and ordinary warriors who had not yet sensed the Light.

……

In its place, as strange dark clouds obscured the sun, and as the dazzling sunlight ceased to shine, in the distance, dense black shadows poured from the entrance of the valley towards the castle of the Dawn Guard, and judging by their number, it seemed that there were hundreds or thousands of them?

And those invaders, judging from their size, obvious appearance, armor and weapons, etc., are undoubtedly the vampires of Vokihar who have been spying and attacking the castle and garrison of the Dawn Guard on a small scale during this month!!

Today, however, instead of spying, infiltrating, and harassing on a small scale, they are directly coming in a large army of vampires!

That's right, there's nothing wrong with describing it as a 'vampire army', at least that's what everyone who sees them, including Ishran of the Dawn Guard.

"Why are there so many spicy vampires today......"

(°ー°〃)
