The Vampire Eldest Miss Thinks I Like Her 5

Chapter 5: About Personas

Adele left in a hurry, after all, she still needed to eat. A vampire’s life and strength came entirely from blood, including their own blood and the blood they consumed. High-quality blood could provide a vampire with energy for an extended period, while lower-quality blood required frequent consumption to maintain their strength.

Adele had never tasted human blood. Others couldn’t understand why, but whenever faced with the blood provided by her family, she would express disgust, claiming it had a foul smell. She only drank synthetic blood, which, according to other vampires, had no taste and naturally, no foul odor. It was the only thing Adele could stomach.

However, synthetic blood was artificial, akin to the sugary drinks humans made with low-quality sweeteners. It was drinkable, but expecting it to provide a substantial amount of energy was wishful thinking. Adele, who could only tolerate synthetic blood, had to eat regularly and on time, otherwise, she risked becoming weak and even falling unconscious.

Jasmine couldn’t comprehend why Adele, who abhorred blood so much, was so persistent in wanting to drink her blood. Did her blood not smell foul to Adele’s nose?

After Adele left, Jasmine began her own tasks. She had to clean her room and then head to Adele’s dormitory in the student quarters to clean it as well, before taking Adele’s clothes from the previous day to be washed.

When she arrived at the student dormitory, it was devoid of students, with only maids bustling around. This was normal, as the students were currently in class, leaving the maids to tidy up their masters’ belongings.

As Jasmine was about to take the laundry basket to her room for washing, she encountered a human maid. The maid had a scattering of freckles across her face, making her look quite adorable.

The freckled maid was a bit timid but still approached Jasmine and asked for her name.

“H-hello, my name is Anna.”

“Jasmine,” Jasmine replied concisely, telling her her name. After receiving a response, Anna seemed to relax a bit. She let out a sigh of relief and walked alongside Jasmine, carrying her own laundry basket.

They were headed to the same destination: the servants’ quarters. Jasmine didn’t mind having someone accompany her. The freckled maid was human, and she didn’t resist humans approaching her. However, when a low-level vampire passed by and gave them both a disdainful look, the freckled maid flinched.

Jasmine, on the other hand, showed no reaction and continued walking. Anna hurriedly caught up, matching Jasmine’s pace, and whispered, “Jasmine, you’re so brave. You don’t even flinch when faced with those vampires.”

“Maybe I’m just used to it. There were many low-level vampires around before I came to school.”

The freckled maid was surprised. “Ah, does your master also have vampire maids?”

“Yes.”

Receiving confirmation, the freckled maid seemed puzzled. She didn’t quite understand. She was clearly more relaxed around humans, so she directly voiced her doubts, “Then why didn’t your master bring a vampire maid along?”

The freckled maid seemed to realize that her question was a bit impolite and immediately apologized, “Sorry, that was a strange question… It’s just that, if a student brings a human maid, like my master, it usually means they’re from a declining, less wealthy noble family. Although their family might have been powerful in the past, after so many years, only a shell remains… They can only afford to purchase humans as servants.”

Actually, the freckled maid’s words were somewhat risky. Her words could be interpreted as speaking ill of her master by the nobles. If Jasmine reported her to her master, she would surely be punished. The freckled maid, Anna, seemed to realize this as well, her voice gradually lowering.

“I thought… you were the same.”

She had mistaken Jasmine for someone in a similar situation, which was why she had approached her. However, if she had known that Jasmine’s master was a genuine noble, she would have definitely kept her distance. Because the freckled maid was already wondering, why would someone bring a human maid to school when they had plenty of vampire maids at home? It was a shameful thing for their masters, or so they believed.

Jasmine looked at the freckled maid. “How could I possibly know what my master is thinking?”

Anna initially thought that Jasmine must be exceptionally good at pleasing her master, which was why her master risked being looked down upon by her classmates by bringing a human maid to school. However, hearing Jasmine’s response, she realized it made sense. Even after serving vampires for so long, Anna had no understanding of their psychology.

Then, she suddenly thought of something unpleasant, and her expression turned grim. “J-Jasmine, could it be that your master brought you to school just to… drink your blood?!” For anyone, being drained of blood wasn’t a pleasant experience, especially the dizziness that followed, which took a long time to recover from.

At the school, the dining hall provided students with pure and delicious blood from legitimate sources. However, some students still preferred to consume what they were accustomed to – such as the maids they brought from home. If that was the reason, then it made sense for Jasmine to be brought here by her master.

The freckled maid looked at Jasmine with sympathy. In her mind, Jasmine might even be drained of all her blood, a truly miserable fate.

Jasmine didn’t understand what the freckled maid was thinking, but she sensed that she was overthinking things. However, since she wasn’t saying anything, Jasmine couldn’t just tell her, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Thanks to Anna’s overthinking, at least their relationship had become closer. Moreover, Anna wasn’t a tight-lipped person. During their short walk, Jasmine had already gleaned quite a bit of information from her.

Firstly, Anna was the maid of a second-year student and had been at the school for over a year. During her time here, she had been constantly harassed by the low-level vampire maids. It wasn’t just her; everyone else was treated the same way. In the school, the number of human maids was actually quite small, only twenty-three in total. Now, with Jasmine included, it was twenty-four.

There were also human male attendants, but because the male and female dormitories and servants’ quarters were separated, they rarely encountered each other. The attendants and maids had also tacitly staggered their meal times, so naturally, they didn’t see each other, and they didn’t know how many human attendants there were.

Due to their small numbers and their masters’ lower status compared to the masters of the low-level vampire maids, they could only endure the mistreatment.

Anna also told Jasmine about a few maids who were absolutely not to be provoked. One of them came from a formerly noble family and wasn’t a low-level vampire herself. She currently served the daughter of a powerful noble from the Thirteen Clans. Not to mention her master, she herself was a formidable figure among the servants.

Jasmine blinked. She was actually quite curious and even wanted to meet this maid. Don’t ask why; she just felt her hands itching for action. During her time as a hunter, she had eliminated many high-ranking vampires, but she had never dealt with a powerful noble from the Thirteen Clans, as she rarely encountered them. Although the Blake family was also one of the Thirteen Clans, their declining status made them one of the weakest among them.

If she could clash with that maid and her mistress, it would be beneficial for Jasmine to assess the strength of the Thirteen Clans.

Fortunately, the freckled maid didn’t know what Jasmine was thinking. If she did, she would definitely keep a distance of three hundred meters from her. As they talked, they arrived at the servants’ quarters. The freckled maid, Anna’s room, wasn’t on the same floor as Jasmine’s. She nodded at Jasmine and left with her laundry basket.

Jasmine also returned to her own quarters. She hand-washed Adele’s clothes and hung them to dry on the balcony of her room. She had always been the one washing Adele’s clothes, and she had witnessed Adele’s transformation from a girl who didn’t need a bra to a grown woman with a more impressive bust size than her own.

Although she had cheat abilities in terms of physical strength, unfortunately, Jasmine’s bust size remained average, preventing her from becoming a busty older sister figure. Every time she thought about this, Jasmine felt a bit frustrated. She didn’t have a strong obsession with large breasts; it was just that she felt her persona would be more fitting with a larger bust. The image of a mysterious, powerful, and stunningly beautiful older sister was simply too appealing. However, regrettably, Jasmine didn’t have it, while Adele did.

From the moment she started developing and realized she couldn’t become a mature and glamorous busty older sister, Jasmine began cultivating her icy beauty persona. She cut her hair short, just above her shoulders. Her hair was slightly wavy, resembling a pear blossom perm, which, paired with her wispy bangs and maid outfit, created an image that Jasmine was quite satisfied with.

The body she possessed after transmigrating likely had Asian ancestry, with yellowish skin, black hair, and black eyes. This made Jasmine feel much more comfortable, as she couldn’t quite accept being Caucasian.

After hanging Adele’s clothes to dry, Jasmine had nothing to do. Because they served vampires, the maids also adopted a nocturnal lifestyle. It was still early before dawn, so Jasmine could only bring a chair over and let out a bored yawn. Even though the maids were nocturnal, Jasmine was still accustomed to going out and doing things during the day.

On her first day at school, Jasmine was already bored to death. She would rather be back at the castle, where she could at least chat with the other human maids. When it was time for the last meal of the day, Jasmine went to the dining hall, enjoyed a delicious meal, and returned to her room.

After spacing out for a while, the sky began to lighten with the first hints of dawn. At this time, the students returned to their dormitories in twos and threes, preparing for sleep. Jasmine, however, gradually became more energetic. She had been waiting for daybreak for a long time.
