Thinking about various things, Iss quickly arrived near Anno Town. Due to the previous battle with the Scorpion Lion, his cheeks and palms were both wounded to varying degrees. In order to not appear too suspicious, Iss chose to use healing magic to remove the scars first, and then summoned clean water with water magic to wash his face.

From the current perspective, he can freely use all the skills in the game, as long as he has used them before and remembers how they feel. As an old player who came from "F.Wing," the predecessor of "Ragnarok," the feeling of using skills has long been ingrained in his mind. As long as he regularly cycles through all the skills, he will not forget how to use magic.

"So this is a human town..."

Looking at the city wall standing in front of him, Iss sighed and covered the sun with his hand, squinting slightly. The city wall of Anno Town is not very tall, compared to the hundred-meter tall city walls in the game, it is only at the level of a kindergarten. However, compared to the game, Anno Town has a unique scenery. The people who want to enter the city are lined up in a long queue, extending all the way to where Iss is standing.

Among these people, there are merchants riding on horses, as well as farmers pushing carts. They are dressed modestly, even though Iss was a prisoner just now, standing among the crowd still gave him a sense of standing out.

In addition, Iss also noticed that at the front of the queue, there is a vampire being inspected by the guards, looking very familiar with them.

"They should be the people who live in the town..."

Iss somewhat relieved, at least this proves that vampires can enter human towns.

"Anno Town and Nilu City are quite far apart. The Count's eldest daughter has never been to Nilu City before, so she shouldn't be recognized."

Iss lowered his head and pondered. After entering the town, he needs to first find a place to stay and then start gathering information. First, he needs to know who the strongest person in this world is in order to avoid accidentally causing trouble. Secondly, he needs to inquire about a place where he can live in peace. Anno Town is next to Nilu City, and even though news from the other world spreads slowly here, he cannot treat Anno Town as a permanent residence.

Most importantly, the Scorpion Lion... The people in this city are at most level ten, so why are there level 800 Scorpion Lions living nearby? Don't they think the Scorpion Lions are dangerous?

For a moment, the images of people in the town offering sacrifices to the Scorpion Lions every year or worshiping them as gods flashed through Iss's mind.

"Well, the Scorpion Lion has evaporated. Even if I want to investigate, it's useless. However, the 'Explosion' magic was able to kill an 800-level Scorpion Lion, which was a completely unexpected situation. I've never heard of such news before. I guess everyone thought it was too shameful to shout out the skill name, so nobody tried it?"

But Iss felt that something was wrong. The Scorpion Lions he saw in the strategy book were all huge, more majestic than even the dragons. The Scorpion Lion he encountered earlier was only ten meters long, compared to the impressive Scorpion Lions in the strategy book, it felt like a firefly compared to the moon.

"Young lady, are you alone?"

A middle-aged man behind Iss suddenly spoke up, noticing that he was being called, Iss naturally turned around.

"Hmm? Ah, yes."

Although he didn't know why he could speak a language he had never learned, it was convenient to communicate.

Iss noticed that the language spoken by humans and vampires was not the same, but he had unknowingly mastered both languages.

It was probably inheriting the memories of the Count's eldest daughter.

Iss secretly felt fortunate that the people in this other world were not as fierce as imagined. This middle-aged man should be a local farmer and belonged to the type that looked very honest.

Just as Iss marveled at the simplicity of the people in this other world, the man had an expression as if he had seen something rare, and his gaze lingered on Iss's wings and face.

"What an unusual attire, did you lose your way from a theater troupe?"

Theater troupe? Does he mean a theater troupe that performs acrobatics? But what does he mean by attire?"

Following the man's gaze, Iss looked at the wings around his waist. In order not to bother the people around him while waiting in line, Iss deliberately kept his wings still, so the man must have taken the wings as a prop for his performance.

But before Iss could answer, the man smiled and rubbed his chin to himself.

"Is it a script related to vampires? I've only heard that Nilu City has theater troupes performing, but only the nobles can afford the admission fee. I didn't expect there would be a theater troupe willing to perform in Anno Town. This is a rare opportunity. Young lady, you will soon find the theater troupe.""Ahahaha..."

With the other person's words reaching this point, if Iss were to clarify that the wings were not just for decoration, it would probably make the man feel awkward. So Iss could only smile awkwardly and change the subject.

"This is my first time in Annu Town. I'm looking for a place to stay. Do you have any recommendations for hotels or inns, sir?"

"Hmm? Didn't the troupe arrange accommodations for the young lady? That's really ridiculous, leaving such a beautiful girl alone outside. Although you could directly stay at my house, it might trouble you. As for recommendations, there is only one hotel in Annu Town. Even if you don't want to, you can only choose to stay there, understand?" After saying this, the farmer put his hand on the cart and nodded his head in Iss's direction. "Keep going, you're almost there, young lady."

"Oh, I see. Thank you."

Hastily nodding in agreement, Iss quickly walked forward. To pass through the city gate, one didn't need any formalities. Usually, travelers only needed to walk through the gate while being observed by the soldiers. Only those pushing carts or riding in wagons would be inspected by the guards, apparently to check for suspicious individuals or contraband.

However, just as Iss was about to pass through the city gate, the guards stationed on both sides suddenly called out to Iss.

"Hey, halt!"

"Huh? Um... Is there a problem?"

Iss couldn't help but shudder. The current feeling was like going through security checks with luggage, even though there was nothing inside the bags, there was an inexplicable worry.

Seeing that Iss didn't resist, the two soldiers in armor first retracted their spears, then led Iss to an empty space next to the city gate. They looked at Iss from head to toe with a rather strange expression, not approaching or speaking to Iss, but discussing something with each other.

"Is this a vampire? She has the look of someone not to be messed with."

"No way... a vampire wouldn't be able to stand under the sun."

"I have the same thought."

The two soldiers looked up at the sun together. The noon sunlight was unusually dazzling, so much so that it was difficult to open one's eyes.

"So, she's not a vampire? Even though she has wings?"

"Maybe it's a strange fetish of nobles? Her attire really looks like that of a princess from some country. Nobles do like exotic things."

"But the wings look too real, see! They're still moving!"

"It's just some prank by a noble's child, Charlie, you're making a big deal out of it."

"Tch, so should we just let her go then?"

"What else can we do? I don't want to be accused of offending a noble."

The speaking soldier shrugged and ignored the other person. He walked forward to face the somewhat nervous Iss, putting on a kind expression that he thought was very friendly.

"What's the young lady's name?"

"...Iss Lorel?"

"It sounds familiar. I think I've heard it somewhere. Must be a noble from somewhere." The soldier muttered to himself in a voice that Iss couldn't hear, then turned his gaze to the vampire wings behind Iss. "Is this a prop?"

"Huh? Isn't it realistic enough?"

Iss's response not only didn't make the soldier suspicious, but instead made him show a rather understanding expression, his gaze drifting away as if reminiscent of past memories.

"I used to like playing as a vampire at your age too. Unfortunately, I was born into an ordinary family... Alright, no problem, go into the city. Annu Town may not be wealthy, but it's at least a peaceful place."

"Thank you."

Subconsciously, Iss nodded and expressed gratitude to the soldier, then, under the soldier's gentle gaze, stepped into the town one step at a time.

"Humans and vampires aren't so incompatible after all."

Letting out a quiet sigh, Iss stepped out of the dim city gate, squinting her eyes slightly. The sunlight gave her a feeling of being reborn.

"The next step is to find the hotel... but before that, I have to figure out how to get some money."
