Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn as a Vampire Dragon with a System

Chaos shyly walked into the dining room as Natalia and the other former slaves glanced at him, they all bowed to him and immediately stopped eating. They knew how powerful he was, and they were not in the mood of provoking a deadly dragon.

"L-Lord Chaos, have you evolved now?" asked an elf.

"You look just as handsome as before!" said a human girl.

"Indeed, my lord…" said a dwarf.

They had only been here for a few hours, but Chaos noticed that they were very talented at getting used to the terrifying place filled with deadly monsters.

Perhaps they were merely so terrified they simply decided to be as passive and complacent as possible to their master.

After all, they were former slaves, so they knew how to act politely towards new masters… Well, perhaps.

There were still some people that remained in silence, trembling a bit.

Chaos didn't like when he made those that served him fearful of him, so he nodded and tried to force a smile on his expressionless face, which only made him look even creepier as if he were smiling sadistically…

"Please don't feel afraid, I have only come here to talk with you and know you better," he said.

However, all the people seemed even more terrified. People often judged a person by their expressions before their words, so when he said all of that while smiling sadistically, it was as if he was trying to say that there was some sick meaning behind this… Maybe he was going to choose the less qualified one and eat it! Who knows?!

This only made Chaos feel bad with himself for not being capable of making his servants feel at ease, as his smile disappeared, and he looked at the floor sorrowfully.

Natalia was the only one that noticed this and decided to risk it and talk more casually with him. She was, after all, a girl that seemed his age, although was not really his age. And also, she liked to speak a lot with friends in her former town, she even had acquired the [Gossip] Skill out of it, so she was a good talker.

"Lord Chaos, you don't need to worry, all the people here are a bit scared of you because of your strength. But I can tell that you're a gentle-hearted man, so they don't really need to be afraid of you," said Natalia trying to ease Chaos's unstable emotions.

"Oh, is that so? Don't worry, those that serve me will never be harmed by me, this strength is used to protect you," said Chaos, making the people suddenly shift the concept of how they saw him in an instant!

He was… actually super nice! What the hell?

In the end, Chaos sat down near the people and Natalia, as he began to ask them many things which he didn't understand. After a few minutes, Abyss came rushing at his side and so did Belphegor and Dura, who got news from the young Orc Kid that he had come out of his room already.

As of now, Chaos had learned a few things.

"So Jobs are something granted to you by Gods?" he asked.

"That's right, there are many gods that we worshiped in our village. They would reward those that worked hard in their jobs by granting a Job," said the same elf that had praised him before. His name was Edward Sylph. He was tall, pale-white-skinned, with long blonde hair and sharp emerald eyes, although his left eye was white, seemingly having lost vision after a former slave master slashed it with a knife.

"I see… So it is something exclusive of Elves?" asked Chaos.

"We don't really know how it exactly works. But Humans, Elves, Dwarves, and perhaps other similar races are blessed with Jobs… Natalia here also has some Job Skills despite having Vampire Bloodline. Most likely because she is also half-human," said a young human woman who was quite pretty, with shiny aquamarine eyes and long brown hair named Catherine.

"Yeah, did you get Job Skills?" asked Natalia.

"Yes, I ate the corpses of your former allies that were left in the spaceship, they were quite tasty- Ah, don't worry, I won't eat you," said Chaos nonchalantly.

All the people suddenly got stiff…

"I-I see… Well, it is interesting to know that you can gain skills from eating other people- and monsters too, right?" asked Natalia.

"It is a secret, but yes. Now that you're contracted to me, I guess you won't be revealing my secrets, right?" asked Chaos, his gaze penetrated every person's souls and they instinctively sworn to never reveal it… perhaps it was a command of his done through his Enslave skill he did unconsciously.

"Of course… we won't reveal any secrets…" said Edward.

"I-Indeed, we'll carry them to the grave!" said Catherine.

"Yes… Of course, we won't say anything!" said Natalia, forcing a pretty smile.

"Thank you," said Chaos.

"My lord, you're getting awfully close with these people we just met!" said Abyss, who was feeling left out.

"Don't worry, Abyss, you're still my favorite," said Chaos, petting Abyss, and telling exactly what she wanted to hear, making her happy.

"Uwah! R-Really, my lord? Y-You're also my favorite!" said Abyss as she smiled gently, entangling her lord lovingly with her black and oozy body, which disturbed the people watching.

"It is a good thing to speak with others, Abyss, so don't feel jealous of it. It is very important to learn more about the world we are in and about many other things, never forget that" said Chaos while genuinely smiling gently at her, it seemed that she was the only one he had ever smiled genuinely.

"I-I see... Alright then, I will try to behave better, Master. I apologize," said Abyss, as she bowed a bit to the people, everyone only grew more amused to Chaos, who had easily tamed this slime-like monster that was a pseudo-demi-deity like nothing!

"(He's really amazing… Chaos might be the one that could actually save this putrid world from all its corruption…)" thought Natalia, feeling inspired over the hope that the young vampire dragon had brought to her heart.
