“Bria me step out first. I’ll try to order everyoo not attack. I think it might reduce ces of anything happening.” Lua told me, as she was getting out of the carriage.

  Fabio, our local dhampir and the person whs blood to the vilge, had done a good job gathering the vilgers. Now it to us to cure all of them from their blood curse.

  … only one small problem. I’m not a dhampir, nor do I have that extra skill which Agatha has, so there is some ce that the dhampirs will try to attack me. I don’t want a repeat of Ria happening or anything. But I do have ah me. Or more like a Princess.

  Lua’s almost criminally underused unique skill, Dhampir Princess. It has a few sub-parts, like the one she uses to make dresses, but the most important for this moment is Dhampir Order. She use it to order dhampirs, and while these orders are in no way absolute, they do have some impact.

  I watched from ihe carriage as both Lua and Ria stepped out first. Lua then removed the red mantle she always wore when we were anywhere in publid revealed the pair of white wings underh it.

  I know at least parts of Dhampir Princess are powered up the more ‘princess-like’ Lua looks, so maybe revealing her wings is a way she is trying to make herself look more like a princess and/or an angel or something. … Do angels exist in this world? Because I don’t think I’ve seen a single one. Well it doesn’t really matter. Most dhampirs don’t have wings, so winged dhampir has more authority than a ‘regur’ dhampir, right?

  After Lua seemed to talk a bit to everyone, which I actually couldn’t hear and that could be a big ht with this carriage, Ria came and opehe carriage door for me.

  I stepped out and looked at our audience. … is it wrong to call them the audience when they are more like… the subjects. That sounds wrong as well. I’m not some king looking down on my subjects. And if we go with experiment subjects, that is wrong as well. This isn’t experimental. I’ve dohis before, so it is no longer experimental.

  As I took my position by Lua’s side, I heard some murmurs from the crowd, them speaking about ‘he really is a human’ and some other stuff like that. But a quick s of the crowd didn’t show a single one of them with shining eyes, so it doesn’t seem like any of them went on a blood frenzy. That’s good.

  Did they all just enjoy some blood? Or is it Lua’s order? Their own self trol? All of the above?

  Well, it doesn’t matter. As long as they aren’t attag me, I do what I want in peace.

  After a quick self-introdu, I activated my duel disk, including the light bde part, so I had a total of 10 monster zoo use. I have a multitude of vampires who cure the curse, so o leave it all to . Let’s just summon all the vampires.

  “e forth, my vampires.” I said before I began to list off their names. “Genesis Vampire Lord. Vampire Voivode. Vampire Vamp. Vampire Scarlet Sce. Vampire Grimson. Vampire Grace. Vampire Fraulein. Vampire Duke. Vampire Sucker. Vampire Fasator.”

  Spoiler[colpse]Soon enough, the ten vampires appeared all around me. As they kept appearing, the eyes of the vilgers went wider and wider. Not that I bme them.

  “. Everyone. Would you be so kind as to cure the vilgers here?” I requested my monsters.

  The g itself went eveer than st time, and it wasn’t difficult st time either. This time, with a lot more vampires out here, even with a vilge of 46 people, my ten vampires got the g done fast. And without ever even ging into his Genesis form.

  And because of my mission, you know, this one.

  Mission: Cure the DhampirsGoal: Cure dhampirs of their blood curseReward: Grants a random Vampire card for each cured dhampirThis mission is repeatable. You gain the reward only once per person

  I got some neire cards. As well as plenty of repeats, so I’ll only go over the uff.

  In terms of new monsters, I got Dhampir Vampire Sheridan, Crimson Knight Vampire Bram, The Zombie Vampire and Number 24: Dragus the Vampiric Dragon.

  Spoiler[colpse]Four XYZ monsters. Though I really don’t think Number 24 is a Vampire card, so I feel like the mission is cheating. I did of cet a bunain deck Vampire monsters as well, but I have all of them already thanks to using Vampire's Domain to breed more Vampires. Domain just couldn’t make extra deck Vampires, so that is why they were new.

  Spoiler

  [colpse]

  Anyway. Back to the rewards. In terms of new spells/traps, I got Vampire's Desire, Vampire Domination and Vampire Takeover.

  Spoiler[colpse]So a total of seven new cards from this vilge. I guess that is alright, sidering how many Vampire cards I already had. And of course I did get a bunch of extra copies of a lot of the Vampire cards I already had, but as I said earlier, that isn’t really worth recapping.

  But something is worth a thought. The new XYZs monsters I got. How do they work?

  Not like that you moron. I know how to XYZ summon. But how do the overy units work? You know, for activating their effects. When I summon an XYZ monster, it will get some amount of materials. I would say they always get at least 2, but Zoodiacs are a thing, so I ’t really say that. But that doesn’t really matter for this thought experiment.

  So when I first summon an XYZ monster, it will have overy units. But then what about when I summon it the ime, without perf a new XYZ summoning? I should be able to do it, sidering that I with fusion monsters, but if it works like resurreg an XYZ from the GY, then the XYZ monster won’t have any overy units.

  Also, is there anything that prevents me from just putting more cards under my XYZ monsters? Because if I just put a card there, it might turn into an overy unit. Maybe. I feel like it should. I’ll try to remember to test it when I XYZ summon for the first time.

  After the g, the town was obviously in a festive mood. Of course Lua, Ria and I were the guests of honor, so we had some nice seats set out to us, but because this is still a dhampir vilge, there wasn’t actually many people here who knew how to cook. There were a few older dhampirs who did have knowledge about basic cooking, as some of them learned how to cook for the smith that used to live here, but even though they did have a kit and some pots and pans, they just had no ingredients. Dhampirs with the curse ’t really eat anything after all.

  Well, it doesn’t really matter to me, as I have my own food in ste, but I think I should also give them some ingredients to cook with. I do still have a bunonster meat from clearing HomeBase, so I share it around. … still low on veggies though. I really o stock up on veggies,grain, potatoes and stuff. I should also teach them about foods that use blood as an ingredient. I remember the dhampirs from the other vilge really liking that stuff, even if it was just alright in my opinion.

  Ria knows how to do that, right? I know she has learned a bit about cooking. Maybe Ria e here every now and then with Lua and hold a cooking school. It would be better if I let her borrow my Kit Dragonmaid, but the Dragonmaids are mine. All Mine!

  … okay, a bit too greedy there. But the point stands. Dragonmaids and Blue-Eyes are both archetypes I really don’t want to share with ahey are for my use only.

  Anyway, back to the vilgers. As a thanks for g them, the vilgers gifted us a few things. At first they tried to pile a bunch of blood iron accessories onto us, made by the te smith of this vilge, but I refused to take that much of it and only took a few of them, like a two pairs of earrings, one for Lua the other for Ria, and a small dagger, which was also going to Lua. I already have that blood iron shortsword from the other vilge, and of course my monsters make me vampiric steel ons if I want some, so I didn’t want to take too much, but taking nothing is also not an option. So just a few items will do.

  As our celebratio going, I put on a small feast for us. It is always easy with how OP Mystik Wok is. I decided to cook up a Sabersaurus, because I’ve asted a Dinosaur-type monster before. It was quite good, but dinosaur meat is a bit tougher than drago, so I definitely prefer dragon. I also had Lua activate another copy of Mystik Wok and drain all the blood from a Tyrant Dragon, so the party would have some dragon blood to enjoy. That made a lot of the dhampirs open their eyes as wide as they .

  Spoiler[colpse]I still don’t fully uand why I ’t drain the blood from my monsters, but Lua and Ria . It just … doesn’t make any se has to be something to do with them being dhampirs, but … I just don’t like it. They are my cards. Why ’t I do everything with them? I should be able to. If only I could turn into a dhampir. I’ll seriously have to ask Lua if she turo one.

  As the sun began to set, ed off the party. We did still o get either to HomeBase, or Burch city to spend the night, so this was as long as we could stay. We also had Fabio to worry about, though he did seem to have a sleeping p this vilge.

  The party had been a det bit of fun, and while I hadn’t summoned my neire XYZ monsters, all of the others had had their turn to join in on the festivities.

  As we were saying oodbyes, Lua remihe vilge that she’d be ing baorrow to begin everyoraining into True Blood Magid remihem to not party for too long. And because the time was quite te already, I decided we could travel back to the city in a B.E.S. monster, so Lua summoned her Crystal Core and we rode back to the city in it, nding just far enough that we wouldn’t be spotted as we got off and got into my carriage.

  After dropping off Fabio, we headed back to the inn where we regrouped with Alid her party.

  “I think that is all.” Alice said, as she capped off her tale of the day.

  She, along with Agunan, Wilma, Einar and Eline, had taken on a quest sent to the adventurer’s guild by Brading pany. Then while delivering the quest items to the pany, she tried to fish for information about the illegal sve marks and Wilma, but ended up with only minimal info, as she didn’t get to meet with anyone who actually knew anything. She then used her unique-racial skill to wipe any strange memories from the mind of the person she had talked to, before returning here.

  “... so it isn’t widely known at least.” I recapped.

  “Appears so. I ’t actually mind trol a, so he may have just not answered.” Alice reminded me. “But I don’t think he knows about it, as his face turned a bit pale when he heard about the illegal mark.”

  “That might mean he knows about the mark.” I pointed out.

  “It won’t ge anything anyway. He was just a small-time worker. Not anyone in any real position of power.” Alice said. “I’ll try to do a few other quests for the store, maybe even some of the more difficult ohat might get me a meeting with the store's owner or at least someoh more authority.”

  “Yeah. That might work. I’ll also e with you tomorrow, if you don’t mind.”

  “Of course. Let’s hunt something big.”

  “We might have to wait for another fissure for that.” I joked.

  “We find an A-rank without one. And if it is just us fighting, without any of your summons, I think an A-rank will be a good challenge.” Alie.

  “... that might be just a bit much.”

  Holy speaking, I was a bit worried. I know I took on a B-rank lightning tiger, but that was me juiced up on Red-Eyes Bck Dragon Sword and Summoner’s Unity, s to fight an A-rank monster without either would be extremely difficult. Maybe if I at least used Millenium Shield. That way, I’d at least get the Summoner’s Unity boost.

  Well, I guess we will look into it tomorrow.

  [colpse]Option 2. Brian add XYZ material to cards, as long as the cards added are something that be used to summon the monster. So let's say Brian trols Number 39: Utopia. Because Utopia's summoning dition is 2 level 4 monsters, Brian freely add any level 4 moo be Utopia's XYZ material. Of course monsters with more specific requirements would only be able to accept XYZ material that fulfills the summoning dition. So for something like Cyber Dragon Nova, Brian could only add level 5 Mae monsters as material, and for Cyber Dragon Infinity, Brian could only add Level 6 Light Mae monsters (excluding Infinity's effect).

  Spoiler[colpse]Third option. None of that matters and Brian put anything and everything under an XYZ monster as material. Basically the 'there are no rules' option.

  So please do vote and if you have better ideas, I do accept them in the ents. If I get one I like a lot, I'll put in into a vote against the winner of this vote.

  Also. Happy 4th of July to all my Ameri readers.
