The Girl Who Reincarnated as a Vampire Heiress-Chapter 313: Palace
Chapter 313
Daniel came out furtively, making sure to ask quietly if Pasha was around.
Chloe teased him intentionally: "What if she is here? What would you do then?"
"..."
Daniel pondered awkwardly for a moment, then said, "I could come out blindfolded, but you'd have to lead me so I don't fall."
Qin Huaibei, who had just finished packing up nearby, came out and sneered:
"Aren't you supposed to be an outstanding student from The No.1 Military Academy? How come you can't even walk blindfolded?"
Daniel cursed under his breath: "If you're so great, you try it."
Without another word, Qin Huaibei pulled out a cloth from his pocket, blindfolded himself, and walked smoothly to the treehouse door without any assistance.
Daniel, who witnessed the whole process: "..."
He widened his eyes: "Wait, how is this fair?"
Daniel was on the verge of a breakdown: "Why is it like this!"
Seeing him truly upset, Chloe reluctantly comforted him: "Don't be sad, humans have been freaks since childhood, you know that."
"They start this kind of blindfold training in elementary school."
Hearing this, Daniel immediately felt better:
"I knew it! We've always trained together, how could he suddenly be better than me?"
Chloe found it amusing: "Alright, Pasha isn't here."
"She seems to have packed up and left, don't worry."
Upon hearing this, Daniel immediately cheered up and darted out of the room:
"Damn, I've been so frustrated lately. Never seen such an open-minded girl in eight lifetimes."
He then ran to the bathroom to wash his face before heading out with Chloe and the others.
It had been a long time since they last visited the Werewolf Race.
Back then, they were confined to the research institute and never got to see the streets and markets.

Now that they could wander around, everything felt novel and exciting.
Thinking carefully, among the Four Great Races, the Werewolf Race was the only one Chloe and her group hadn't explored yet.
Chloe clicked her tongue in amazement: "I never expected the Werewolf Race to be even more secluded than the Elf Race."
Daniel protested loudly: "How is that my fault? The old Wolf King is like an idiot, not only does he never bathe, but he's always up to some weird stuff."
They started walking from the treehouse towards the street. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
By this time, all the street vendors had already set up their stalls.
Daniel hadn't lived here for a long time, but occasionally some merchants on West Street would recognize him, saying "Isn't this the old Marshal's son?" and then give each of them some free food.
He always accepted with a smile, but as he carried more and more, he couldn't help feeling a bit melancholic.
Chloe glanced at him: "Hey, what kind of person was the old Marshal?"
"You mean my dad?" Daniel asked.
At this, everyone around them silently nodded.
Daniel became animated: "My dad was awesome. Even your dad... Xavier praised him, saying he was a talented military leader, and that in the entire Werewolf Race, only my dad could be considered a true hero."
"He later sacrificed himself in a battle." Daniel scratched his head, "The current old Wolf King actually couldn't wait for my dad to die, so there would be no one to threaten his throne."
"So at my dad's funeral, it was just me and the neighbors organizing everything."
At this point, Daniel glanced at Chloe, feeling a bit uncomfortable as he continued:
"At the time, I thought no one else would come to the funeral, but surprisingly, there were others."
Chloe blinked: "Who?"
Daniel: "You and your dad."
Chloe: "?"
This time, Qin Huaibei and the others all turned their gaze towards Chloe.
Chloe was genuinely confused: "How come I don't remember this..."
"Of course you don't remember," Daniel said. "You were sleeping like a pig at the time, impossible to wake up, just lying in your dad's arms."
Chloe: "..."
Daniel rested his chin on his hand: "Your dad said the old Marshal was like half a close friend to him, and he came specially to see him off. He also left me some food and toys."
"Your dad was much easier to talk to back then..."
Daniel paused briefly: "When I saw you then, I wanted to play with you, but the Ancestor wouldn't let me touch you. He said you had finally fallen asleep and if you woke up, you'd be more troublesome than a monkey."
Qin Huaibei couldn't help but snicker.
Chloe glared at him angrily, then looked back at Daniel: "And then?"
"That's it," Daniel said. After thinking carefully, he added, "Oh right, actually, I recognized you as soon as The No.1 Military Academy started."
"Black hair, red eyes, and the young lady of the Vampire clan, who else could it be but you?"
"I wanted to test your abilities, and you turned out to be even more impressive than I imagined. That's great."
Daniel pouted: "If my dad were still here, he could definitely have trained me to be even better than you."
Hearing this, Chloe raised her eyebrows slightly and reached out to pat Daniel's head:
"You're already very impressive now."
She then stood up from the ground and put her arm around his shoulders, changing direction:
"Come on, let's go tease the old Wolf King a bit."
The sudden change of topic caught everyone off guard.
Katherine was a bit confused: "Where is the Wolf King?"
Chloe bit off her mint lollipop: "I don't know, but Daniel does, right?"
"..." Daniel kept a straight face, "You're just using me as a tool, aren't you?"
"Not entirely," Chloe took a few steps forward. "Aren't we going to help you get revenge?"
"I think that old Wolf King is really not a good person."
On this point, Daniel completely agreed: "You're right."
So, with this topic, Daniel led them towards the Pahol Palace of the Werewolf Race.
That was where the Wolf Kings had lived for generations.
The white palace walls, sharp roofs, and colorful glazed mirrors were all things ordinary people couldn't access.
When they arrived, there were still many guards standing outside.
Chloe pretended not to see them and was about to swagger in.
A guard stopped her in time: "Where do you think you're going? To enter Pahol Palace, you need to be announced."
"Do you have permission?"
Chloe blinked: "Doesn't my face count?"
Guard: "..."
They thought she was just another woman trying to climb into the Wolf King's bed with her looks, so they rolled their eyes and continued to drive her away:
"The Wolf King doesn't fall for this. Just leave quickly."
Chloe: "If he doesn't even fall for me, how big of a face does Benny have?"
Guard: "..."
They had never seen someone so arrogant in half a lifetime.
The guard found it a bit amusing: "Why do you say that? Young lady, you're so young, why don't you do something better with your life instead of getting involved in this kind of business?"
"For someone of your background, you should study hard, get into a good school, instead of spending all day thinking about these unrealistic ways to climb up quickly."
"Oh." Chloe blinked innocently, "But my dad is the Ancestor of the Vampire clan, and I'm his only daughter, so why do I need to study hard?"
The guard's hand holding the spear trembled:
"...Who's your dad?"
Chloe: "Xavier, of course."
Guard: "!!!"
