I Became The Vampire Progenitor
Chapter 157: The Heartwarming Daily Lives of the Residents

By late April, the weather had fully warmed up, and the residents of Dawn City donned their thin, vibrant new clothes.

Young girls swapped into their favorite long dresses, while the young men wore spirited short shirts. The entire city brimmed with vitality.

Inside a bakery near the square, a group of middle-aged women gathered around a round table chatting. Since it wasn’t yet noon, there weren’t many customers, so the bakery wasn’t particularly busy.

The bakery owner was a plump woman in a red long dress, her face freckled. Relying on her family’s traditional skills, she applied to the City Hall after arriving in Dawn City and successfully opened a delicious bakery.

At this moment, the plump woman was idly chatting with those around her.

"Have you heard? Inside the new livestock farm built by Lord Kachar, there are not only pigs but also magical beasts. I swear to the Goddess, this news must be true."

For the ordinary residents of Dawn City, anything happening within the city naturally drew their immediate attention.

Such a significant event as building a livestock farm naturally sparked countless curious glances, especially from these older women.

One of the younger women, with beautiful golden hair, gazed with deep admiration.

"Lord Kachar is a great deity; the livestock farm he established is naturally extraordinary."

No one was surprised by the golden-haired woman's title for Li De.

As the Dawn Order took root in the city, it was widely known that their city lord, Kachar, was also their god.

Due to Li De’s immense influence, the number of believers in the Dawn Order grew rapidly each day. More and more people began to worship the great Lord Kachar.

Aside from this golden-haired woman, at least half of them had prayed at the Dawn Church.

A thin woman in a black skirt lit up and quickly interjected, "This topic is fantastic!

I heard that inside the livestock farm, there’s an alchemical device that automatically flows with spring water just by turning a switch.

And the water flowing from the pipes is as clean as mountain spring water. As long as the switch isn’t turned off, the water will never stop flowing.

More magical than magic itself."

The plump woman in the red long dress nodded in full agreement.

"I heard from a neighbor’s young man that this miraculous thing is called ‘tap water,’ seemingly designed personally by Lord Kachar.

It’s unimaginable how tap water that never runs out is made. Perhaps only legendary divine artifacts possess such functions—it’s truly magnificent!"

"May the Goddess bear witness, that’s truly a miracle."

The golden-haired woman’s face reflected longing, but then her freckled features showed some disappointment.

"However, I heard the livestock farm has been restricted, and outsiders can’t enter freely. Otherwise, I’d love to see the never-ending tap water—a masterpiece of Lord Kachar. It must be stunning."

Before the plump woman in the red dress could respond, she caught sight of a young Cyclops playing by the roadside.

"I’ll go play with little Kosso."

With a smile, she stood up, picked up a few slices of white bread from the table, and stepped outside.

"Little Kosso, come here, I’ve got bread for you~"

Upon hearing her voice, the young Cyclops abruptly turned its head and revealed a somewhat simple smile upon seeing the plump woman.

The intelligence of a young Cyclops was equivalent to that of a 7 or 8-year-old human, and they could already recognize people.

He felt quite fond of humans who often gave him food.

He ran toward the bakery, though still a juvenile, his three-blade height and four to five hundred pounds made him immensely large.

Each step caused the ground to tremble slightly.

"Thank you~"

His silly sounding voice spoke perfect Continental Common Tongue, taught by these residents during their idle moments.

The young Cyclops swallowed several slices of bread in one gulp. Bread that could fill an adult halfway seemed like peanuts to him. After finishing, he stared at the plump woman with hopeful eyes.

"Hahaha, I’m all out. Come back tomorrow, let me pat your head~"

Hearing this, the young Cyclops’ huge single eye revealed a hint of grievance, but for the tasty white bread, he obediently crouched down and rubbed his bald head against her hand.

His grayish-white, wrinkled skin felt rough like tree bark, but the plump woman loved it.

Previously, she couldn’t have imagined touching the head of a legendary creature like a Cyclops.

It was simply too dreamlike.

Praise Lord Kachar, praise Dawn City!

At this moment, a patrol team dressed in neat and clean security uniforms passed by. Leading them was a pale-faced Saintlight Vampire.

Daytime patrols clearly affected its condition.

Its bat wings slightly spread, and its sharp fangs resembled bayonets.

Seeing the security team, the young Cyclops obediently moved aside, looking fearfully at the leading vampire.

The world-destroying fiery ball from Giant Valley had left a deep shadow on him, so he always feared vampires.

Moreover, working vampires were often extremely strict, and mischievous young Cyclopses had been beaten up by the security team more than once, making this big guy somewhat afraid of them.

"Lord Hani"

"Good afternoon, Lord Hani"

Passersby greeted the leading vampire.

"Little Kosso"

The leading vampire smiled slightly upon seeing the young Cyclops and was about to say something.

Ah~

The young Cyclops shuddered in fright, like a child caught misbehaving, screamed, and vanished in the blink of an eye.

The scene froze, leaving only a few awkward faces.

The plump woman smiled politely and said, "Good afternoon, Lord Hani. Would you like to come in and taste our freshly baked bread?"

"Thank you, no need."

The leading vampire slightly bowed and glared at a few snickering security officers behind him before turning and leaving.

The security officers suppressed their laughter and followed in neat steps.

Seeing this, the plump woman revealed a heartfelt smile.

Humans and vampires patrolling together, Cyclopses and civilians living harmoniously—such a dreamlike scene, even wandering bards wouldn’t dare fabricate. Only in Dawn City could such sights be seen.

Praise the great Dawn City!

After the security team left, the plump woman turned back inside. Just as she sat down to continue chatting with others indoors, a young, spirited man walked in.

The young man wore a black short shirt, his short blond hair making him look very handsome.

"Aunt Mary, I’ve come to buy bread."

Hearing this voice, the group of women turned their heads and smiled upon seeing him.

"Jamie, doesn’t the livestock farm finish work at noon? Why are you back so early?"

"Is this old Jean’s son? What a surprise, you’re much handsomer than old Jean."

"Haha, if old Jean hadn’t said anything, I’d bet no one would believe such a spirited young man could be his son."

The group of women started off well, but as they chatted, the topic veered off course.

"Does Jamie have a girlfriend? Let Aunt Lina introduce you to a young girl."

"What kind of girl do you like? My neighbor has a beautiful girl."

"A handsome young man like you must have many girls liking you, right?"

Under the questioning of these women, Jamie broke into a sweat and looked pleadingly at Aunt Mary.

"All right, stop teasing Jamie."

Aunt Mary chuckled at the group, rose gracefully in her red dress, and handed Jamie several honey-glazed white bread slices from the bakery counter.

"Just baked bread, and the honey was bought from the store yesterday."

After saying this, she remembered something and asked curiously,

"Jamie, aren’t you working at the livestock farm? Is there really tap water more magical than magic inside?"

Upon hearing this question, the other women immediately shifted their attention from Jamie’s love life to the livestock farm.

"Did Lord Kachar raise powerful magical beasts inside?"

"Is there really an alchemical item that continuously flows with spring water and never dries up?"

"How is tap water constructed? Can only mage lords operate it when using it?"

Jamie secretly sighed in relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and replied.

"The tap water at the livestock farm was personally designed and built by Lord Kachar and was put into use just a few days ago." His eyes filled with admiration.

"The tap water is just as legendary. It continuously flows with spring water merely by opening the faucet, and it doesn’t require mage lords to operate—I’ve personally turned on the tap."

Jamie’s face was full of pride.

Working for Lord Kachar at the livestock farm filled him with honor.

Moreover, the tap water was indeed magical and convenient. Even though he had witnessed its creation process firsthand, he still found it incredible.

Lord Kachar was truly magnificent!

Hearing this, everyone’s interest piqued further.

"It’s amazing. How is such an alchemical artifact made?"

"Jamie, tell us quickly."

Half a sun-hour later, Jamie, who had been happily chatting with the group of women, suddenly slapped his forehead and exclaimed in frustration, “Damn it, how terrible! I completely forgot to pick up the spare faucet from the blacksmith shop.

If Master Randy finds out, he’ll surely kill me. Ladies, I must go.”

Saying this, he grabbed the white bread and rushed out the door. Inadvertently slipping on the floor, he fell hard.

Just then, a well-dressed young girl passed by, and the embarrassed young man blushed deeply—it was so embarrassing.

Those inside the bakery burst into laughter upon seeing this scene.

The air was filled with joyous vibes.

Daily life might seem ordinary, but in this world, laughter among the lower-class commoners was a luxury. Perhaps only a magical city like Dawn City could allow these commoners to live so easily.
