The girl seemed to collapse, suddenly crouching down and sobbing while holding her head: "I saw with my own eyes how vampires drained my parents' blood. I hate them! I wish I could tear them to pieces! But I'm also so scared. Every night I dream that I'll end up like my parents, with vampires draining all my blood..."
When she lifted her head again, her face was streaked with tears: "Manager Gu, everyone else is out there fighting the vampires, while I'm hiding in this hotel to save myself. Do they look down on me?"
"You're overthinking it," Gu Wanyin said. "At times like these, no one has time to look down on you."
"Yes, you're right," the girl mumbled. "What I really can't escape is my guilty conscience."
Everyone else was trying their best.
While she was hiding in the hotel.
Even if humans eventually destroyed all the vampires,
She would just be someone who reaped the benefits without contributing.
"Since you can't change your personality, instead of wallowing in self-pity here, you might as well think of ways to help," Gu Wanyin said. "Sometimes, even if you're not on the battlefield, you can still help in other ways."
With that, she left.
She had said what needed to be said; whether the girl understood was up to her now.
The girl watched Gu Wanyin's retreating figure.
After a while, as if suddenly understanding something, her eyes gradually brightened.
...
Gu Wanyin and Bai Shuwen sat at the front desk watching shows on a tablet.
Old Six sat nearby, supporting his round face with both hands, sighing repeatedly.
Gu Wanyin knew he was worried about the Prince.
After all, he and the Prince had become good friends by now.
To be honest, since the guests had been staying at the hotel for so long,
Emotionally speaking, Gu Wanyin didn't want anything bad to happen to them either.
But living in this kind of world, some things were unavoidable.
Just then, a guest walked in through the castle entrance.
"Excuse me, is this a hotel?"
It was a man with a slightly hoarse voice.
Gu Wanyin looked up.
This man was dressed rather strangely, wearing a black robe and carrying an odd-looking staff.
"Yes, would you like to check in?" Bai Shuwen stood up and asked.
The man slowly walked to the front desk.
"I heard about your hotel outside a few days ago, and finally managed to find it today."
"You can exchange gold, jewels, antiques, or Blood Element Pearls for points," Bai Shuwen said with a smile.
The man reached into his black robe and rummaged around.
After a while, he finally pulled out a gemstone.
This stone caught even Gu Wanyin's attention.
It was a blue sapphire, so large that the man could barely hold it in one hand.
Moreover, its quality appeared exceptional.
It was clearly very valuable.
"Are you sure you want to exchange this sapphire for points?" Bai Shuwen asked.
"You sell food and weapons here, right?" the man asked.
"Yes, we do."
"Then I'll exchange it," the man said.
At times like these, a gemstone, no matter how precious, couldn't be more important than food and weapons.
"So which room would you like? We're out of single rooms in the main building, but we still have rooms available in the east and west towers."
"What other types of rooms are there besides single rooms?"
Bai Shuwen proceeded to introduce the other room types to the man.
Without much hesitation, he chose the presidential suite.
Gu Wanyin thought to herself that this man was quite similar to how Prince Wendell was when he first arrived, being generous and immediately choosing the presidential suite.
So, Bai Shuwen had the man place the sapphire in the points exchange box.
Soon, a room card appeared.
Gu Wanyin looked at it.
The card showed over two thousand points remaining.
This was after deducting the points for one night in the presidential suite.
Looking at it this way, the man's sapphire was truly priceless.
Bai Shuwen handed the room card to the man and said, "The room number is on the card. Would you like me to show you to your room?"
"Please take me to the dining hall first."
So Bai Shuwen led him to the dining hall.
Most of the hotel's guests had already left with the Prince.
Now there were only two people sitting in the dining hall eating.
After teaching the guest how to operate the dining hall machines, Bai Shuwen returned to watch shows with Gu Wanyin at the front desk.
Shortly after, the guest suddenly came back.
Earlier when he had arrived, he had kept his hood up, covering the upper half of his face.
Gu Wanyin and Bai Shuwen couldn't see what he looked like.
But now he had removed his hood.
They could see that he was an elderly man with white hair.
And his expression was very serious.
"I just heard that Prince Wendell is staying at this hotel?"
Wendell was the Prince's name.
"The Prince does stay here. Do you have business with him?" Old Six asked.
"I also heard that the Prince has led people out to fight against vampires?"
"Yes."
The old man's expression changed instantly, and he immediately rushed out with his staff, moving with surprising agility.
Bai Shuwen: "...He looks quite old, but he's quite nimble."
"Wonder what his connection to the Prince is."
"Could he be the King?"
"He doesn't seem like it..."
...
In the afternoon, the Prince returned with the hotel guests.
However, as soon as they entered the hotel, Gu Wanyin smelled the heavy scent of blood.
Although she had expected this, her expression still changed when she saw numerous injured people being carried or supported into the hotel.
"So many people are injured?" Bai Shuwen's voice trembled slightly, "Quick, take them all to the medical room."
The room with blood extraction and transfusion machines was now called the medical room.
Fortunately, they now had hemostatic drugs and blood transfusion equipment.
Otherwise, many of these injured people would surely die.
Everyone busily carried the wounded to the medical room, applying medicine and giving blood transfusions.
Gu Wanyin saw that the girl who had been crying in front of the angel statue this morning was also there helping.
The Prince was also injured, on his arm, though not too severely.
Actually, before leaving in the morning, he had bought several boxes of super-effective hemostatic drugs.
But the battle had been so intense that they quickly ran out of the medicine.
"You should go to the medical room to get bandaged up," Old Six said worriedly.
The Prince shook his head and said, "My injury isn't serious. The medical room is full of injured people now, I shouldn't take up space."
The old man in the black robe stood beside him.
At this point, he raised his staff and struck the Prince heavily on the head.
"You stupid boy, how many times have I told you that as Prince, you shouldn't personally fight against enemies? When will you stop ignoring my words?"
