A mysterious tower north of Dragon's Back Mountain

Gloria has basically accepted her current self. This means that whenever she sees herself in the mirror, she doesn't scream anymore and doesn't want to pull the hair out of her body in vain. The daughter of the count's family had finally risen from despair and madness after a few days, and even she herself was surprised that she could accept it all. From a beautiful aristocratic girl to an ugly monster that resembles a mouse, no one can tell how her heart has changed. And Gloria can find herself so quickly, and An Lina's presence is crucial.

As a Bloodline, or vampire, An Lina has experienced and seen too many people lose themselves in various ways, and even she herself has been lost in a long period of loneliness. As a result, she also knows how to bring the crazy people back to their senses, which is why Cheese asks her to take care of Gloria. Of course, the words and words of those exhortations are not effective every time, especially when even An Lina herself does not know what kind of existence Gloria has become into this kind of "rat man", and she cannot guarantee that Gloria will accept her current self. So when Gloria calmly walked out of the room and greeted her in a hoarse voice, Ann Lina had to admit that the lord's daughter was much stronger than she had imagined.

Gloria has been living in this mysterious tower for a few days as an object of observation, and perhaps because of the countless incredible things in the tower, it has been easier for Gloria to accept her changes. That being said, Gloria had been going back and forth between her dorm and lab for the past few days, and she hadn't been anywhere else in the tower. However, this does not prevent her from feeling that life here is different from normal society.

Doors that open and close automatically, lights that turn on and off according to the time of day, magical minions that come and go, and unknown creatures who come to clean their dormitories once every two days. And, of course, the Miss Ann Lina, who has been taking care of herself. Perhaps a few months ago she thought dragons were mythical creatures, but now if someone said that a dragon flew by outside the window, Gloria would be surprised by the dragon's power rather than its existence itself. For the first time, she discovered that there were so many incredible things in the world, and that she was now a part of them. These thoughts changed Gloria's world, freeing her from life in Vale Citadel and rediscovering the vastness of the universe. This is something that neither Cheese nor Ann Lina expected, originally they thought that this young lady had experienced such a terrible change, and she was afraid that she would go crazy for the rest of her life, and even after Cheese collected some physical data from the nezumi, she didn't expect Gloria to provide any help, which was one of the reasons why the mage decided to go to the county in such a hurry.

And Gloria's changes have also piqued An Lina's interest, all mages are curious people, and Gloria, as the first "nezumi" born under artificial stability, has everything about her that is worth studying. So the past few days have been very fulfilling, and she and Gloria have worked together to build an understanding of this new species of nezumi. From muscle strength, the sensitivity of the facial features, to memory, and even eating habits have become the subject of their research. In just a few days, the number of manuscripts written by Ann Lina is already very impressive, as a master of plague science, An Lina knows far more about living things than ordinary researchers, and under her observation and collation, a comprehensive report on the nezumi has been formed. Even An Lina had a feeling that this report alone was enough to be worthy of the adult task of an average apprentice. And in the past few days of contact, An Lina and Gloria quickly became acquainted, and as a nobleman, there were many topics between An Lina and Gloria. And the natural elegance that the blood clan has precipitated over a long period of time has also made Gloria quickly become an admirer of the former. For Gloria, Ann Lena was the first to accept and accept herself as a rat man, and for Ann Lina, the beauty and ugliness of her appearance have long lost any meaning, and what she recognizes is Gloria's strong heart.

"Alright, that's it for today's test. Let's go get something to eat first. Noting down the last few pieces of data, Ann Lina announced the end of today's test, and she tossed the parchment with the contents in her hand, as if it were spiritual, and rolled it up and stuffed it into the box on the bookshelf with the date of the day written on it.

Gloria let out a slight cheer, and after turning into a nezumi, she ate a lot more often and more than she originally ate, but on the contrary, her physical fitness had also improved significantly. The two left the lab and went to Ann Lina's room for dinner, the dim light in the room had no effect on the two of them, and even Gloria found that she felt inexplicably comfortable in a dimly lit place, as if she had been lying in the warm sunlight before. Although it was a meal, it was basically only Gloria eating, and An Lina was just slowly drinking the blood in the glass. After previous tests, the rat man's diet has basically been decided, probably because it retains the original human digestive system, the rat man's eating range has not changed much from humans, if it must be said, the fortified stomach pouch allows the rat man to eat raw meat and uncooked plants without any burden, and even according to Gloria, in addition to looking a little scary, the taste of those raw meats is quite good.

"It's the fifth day. An Lina said suddenly.

Gloria stopped eating and looked up at the vampire girl, knowing that she was talking about the time when the mage named Cheese had left. She was also curious about the relationship between the mage who had saved her and Ann Lina, but reality did not satisfy the girl's fantasies, and she found that Ann Lina and Cheese were more like mother and child.

"Are you worried about him?" asked Gloria.

Ann Lina nodded, she had nothing to deny on this.

"Yes, but I'm not afraid that he will get hurt, he still has the ability to protect himself. I'm worried that the kid grew up here since he was born, and he hasn't communicated with anyone else at all except me and the teacher, and this mission is bound for him to join forces with the frost people, and there may be more forces to negotiate, I'm afraid he won't be able to deal with such a complicated interpersonal relationship at once. ”

An Lina said so much at once, and Gloria felt a little laughing when she heard it, and she suddenly felt that the person sitting opposite was not a powerful blood mage who had gone through a long time, but a mother who was worried about her children who were away from home. This also reminded her of her own parents, and thought that her parents were probably too bad in the plague (Gloria was protected by the guards and evacuated first, not knowing that the Count's family had been killed), Gloria couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"I remembered that Mr. Si could take care of himself. You don't have to worry too much. Gloria said.

An Lina nodded, but as if something suddenly came to mind, she looked at Gloria, those ruby eyes made Gloria a little hairy.

"What's wrong with you?" asked Gloria.

"Gloria, I need you to do me a favor, would you?"
