Chapter 20: Rene

Soon, leaving corpses all over the ground, the two men drove the carriage further towards the royal city. 

Although one is still driving and the other is still riding in the car, their relationship is completely different now. 

As a human rickshaw boy... now we should call him Rene. 

The human Rene is dead, and the one driving the carriage now is Jimmy's descendant, the vampire Rene Nost. 

As for Jimmy, he was sitting in the carriage at this time, checking his body with a wry smile on his face. 

Although he sucked the blood of several people to recover, it was only a temporary solution. At least he could move freely. 

Originally, after the gene lock was opened, one would have to go through a period of slight weakness for half an hour. 

However, before he had gotten through the first period of weakness, he had forcibly activated his special active skills. The combination of the two led to the current consequences. 

Jimmy looked at the two digits displayed on the combat power tester, speechless. 

15!!! 

I guess Rene, who just became a vampire, is stronger than me! 

They are even weaker than those small mercenaries just now! 

With such power, in this strange world full of villains and monsters, if you are unlucky, you will be left dead on the streets within three days. 

"System, how long will it take me to recover?" Jimmy asked expectantly. 

The system hesitated for a moment, as if testing Jimmy's physical condition, and quickly replied. 

"Host, if you don't forcefully use your special skills within a month, you will gradually recover." 

It actually takes a month! 

Jimmy's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. 

A lot can happen in a month. 

In this case, joining the Kingdom Army is inevitable. 

On the one hand, it can provide a relatively safe shelter compared to the outside world. 

Secondly, it was also my original purpose, to hone my combat experience and skills. 

After all the plans were arranged, Jimmy finally calmed down and thought about Rene who was driving outside. 

Putting aside the two girls he spent the night with, he could be considered the first native that Jimmy got close to after coming to this plane. 

At the same time, he is also Jimmy's first loyal follower. 

"Rene." Thinking of this, Jimmy couldn't help but call him. 

"Master, do you have any instructions?" Rene's respectful voice quickly came from outside. 

"I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Jimmy." Jimmy first said his name and then asked. 

"How is it? How does it feel to be a vampire now?" 

According to Jimmy's assumption, Rene's answer should be nothing more than "a bit weird," or "I'm not used to it yet." 

But his answer was unexpected and surprising. 

"Very good!" René replied without any hesitation. 

And the tone of voice used in speaking is very firm and affirmative. 

"Why? Don't humans all hate the undead?" This time, Jimmy became interested and stuck his head out to continue asking. 

"You are right, Master." Rene answered Jimmy's question while pulling the reins. 

"But we can't generalize. Just like me before, I hated the undead, but I also hated humans." 

Hearing his words, Jimmy fell silent. 

It's no wonder, since he met me at the unlucky time when the [Luck Dice] was in effect, then I think about the boy's experience, combined with his previous appearance. 

It is definitely not some common people who live and work in peace and contentment, but rather a person who has a bumpy journey. 

As expected, Rene continued, "Some people, although they are covered in human skin like us, in my opinion, they are more terrifying than the undead." 

After he said this, even though he had his back to Jimmy and his face couldn't be seen, one could still imagine how gnashed his teeth he was at that moment. 

"I will suck the blood of those nobles who prey on the villagers and cruelly exploit them one by one!" 

Then, as Rene slowly explained, Jimmy also understood what he had experienced over the years. 

Rene, who is now alone, was once an ordinary member of a civilian family. 

But unfortunately, he has a very beautiful sister. 

Outstanding looks, without the corresponding high status or military power, would be equal to misfortune in this alien world. 

It is easy to imagine what happened next. The nobles targeted his sister and repeatedly levied high taxes on their family. 

How could a commoner family withstand such harassment from the nobles? In just half a month, all their assets were drained out. 

The noble also revealed his evil face and specifically asked to use his sister Leia as a bargaining chip to offset the taxes. 

Rene's parents resisted angrily and were killed on the spot by the nobles on the grounds of obstructing official business. 

The cruel noble did not give up. Before leaving, he even told Rene that as long as he raised 300 gold coins, he could go to him to redeem his sister. 

Such a number is a huge sum of money for adventurers who can earn high rewards, let alone the young Rene. 

"Now that I think about it, even if I did raise the money, they wouldn't return my sister to me." 

After saying this, Rene gave a bitter smile, as if he was mocking his past ignorance. 

After being transformed into a vampire, his mind seemed to have changed. 

"Thanks a lot." 

Jimmy said softly, placing a hand gently on his shoulder. 

"But now, you don't have to think about money anymore."
