abnormal creature

Lin Feng went to make a pot of hot tea and then found himself in the living room, where the two extraordinary beings were staring at each other.

On a long, slender coffee table, sat at the far ends, were a vigilantly poised vampire girl and a puffed-up Mu Yun. Tension hung in the air as a chilly aura and a wild, primal atmosphere seemed to clash in their gazes, almost visibly swirling above the table. Despite the tea being ready, neither of the superwomen intended to use this opportunity to resolve their conflict. In this nerve-wracking atmosphere, Lin Feng could only continue to shrink, bearing the dual pressures from the werewolf and the vampire with his fragile human constitution, while trying hard to figure out how to make them trust each other.

Mu Yun insisted that the vampire before her wanted to suck the landlord's blood, claiming that everything the vampire said was just a fabrication to escape defeat (she seemed overly confident). She also believed that Lin Feng was under the vampire's spell and speaking nonsense. On the other hand, the vampire girl was convinced that Mu Yun was trying to coerce humans to infiltrate human cities. It was a deadlock: they didn't trust each other, nor did they trust a third party, and there was no fourth party present...

Oh, there was actually a fourth party present—a black and white cat named "Roll," squatting nearby and eating. This magical creature seemed completely unaware of the chilling atmosphere in the living room, guarding a bowl of cat food as if guarding the entire paradise. Lin Feng almost suspected that this clueless cat was also an "abnormal being."

"Well," Lin Feng, the host, had to break the silence, turning to the source of all misunderstandings, the vampire girl. "Miss Vampire, so you mean last night..."

"Please don't use the term 'vampire,'" the girl, dressed plainly but with a natural air of cold elegance, frowned slightly. "Only those instinct-driven blood servants can be called vampires. Those of us who can control our crimson desires are nobles among the bloodline. Humans have deep misunderstandings about us, so they always get it wrong. You can call me Vivian, but I can't reveal my full name for now."

"Ah," Lin Feng nodded. Although he didn't understand the difference between blood servants and high-ranking bloodline members, or what crimson desires were, he could tell that the black-haired girl in front of him was quite reasonable. "Vivian, right? So, you mean you didn't attack us last night? You actually wanted to help?"

"I saw a human with a werewolf. I didn't know if you were deceived or threatened," Vivian nodded. "Originally, I intended to take you away directly. Regardless of what curse the werewolves placed on you, their inferior spells are easy to deal with. However, I was in poor condition last night and was actually... injured by a hidden weapon. Beasts are beasts; they fight without any elegance."

"Preposterous," Mu Yun snorted. "If you can't win, you can't win. Stop making so many excuses. Look at me, have I coerced the landlord in any way? He can run and jump freely; I haven't even grabbed his neck."

The cold wind around Vivian suddenly intensified. "The werewolf's claws are cursed. Do you think I don't know even this common knowledge?"

Mu Yun, upon hearing this, looked down at her hand in surprise. "Oh, am I really that powerful?"

Lin Feng decided to ignore Mu Yun's antics and instead turned to Vivian, looking sincere. "You see, I really wasn't coerced! I swear to the sky, Mu Yun didn't curse me!"

Vivian nodded immediately. Just when Lin Feng thought the vampire girl was finally coming to her senses, her expression turned serious. "Rest assured, I know you must be reluctant to tell the truth due to the curse and not believing in my abilities. Once I recover, I'll show you. This mere wild dog who only knows how to throw bricks is no match for a high-ranking bloodline!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Yun slapped the coffee table with a loud smack, causing a large, even crack to appear on the surface. "Who are you calling a wild dog?! You, this winged rat!"

Vivian no longer suppressed her hostility. She stood up abruptly, and with visible frost forming on the coffee table in front of her and the sofa behind her, she said, "You think you're powerful? Let's fight again! It's because of reckless behavior like yours that the situation has become what it is today!"

The murderous intent, previously contained around the coffee table, finally spread out with the release of its master's anger. Accompanied by two angry shouts, a howling wind and faint wolf howls followed. The clueless "Roll" finally realized that something was wrong and quickly finished eating, darting up to the second floor, leaving Lin Feng staring at his furniture, feeling anxious. "My coffee table..."

He didn't know how he managed to withstand that murderous intent.

"Landlord, don't worry, I'll pay for it." Mu Yun, being a good girl, immediately realized her mistake, even in her anger, and quickly apologized to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng completely understood now. The werewolf before him was a fool, and the vampire was single-minded! Despite Vivian's seemingly normal appearance, she probably wasn't much smarter than Mu Yun. Nowadays, it seemed that anyone with abilities couldn't survive without some sort of personality defect, right?

Just as Mu Yun and Vivian were about to start fighting in the living room, Lin Feng's patience, which had been ample, finally ran out. He slammed his fist on the coffee table and, with the most imposing voice he could muster, shouted, "Enough! This is my home!"

This shout and the forceful punch were actions that Lin Feng, a usually easy-going man, hadn't done in years. However, the intimidation of a weakling finally had some effect. The vampire girl and the werewolf girl realized that this was someone else's home, and one of them even realized that she owed the landlord a coffee table, so they both stopped in unison, their four eyes staring at Lin Feng without blinking.

"What are you looking at?" Lin Feng was startled by his own shout, not expecting to have the courage to do so in front of these powerful creatures who could easily kill him. But then he felt that this feat was not in vain in his life. At this moment, looking at the four eyes on him, he felt inexplicably emboldened. "Look at yourselves, one fool and one stubborn! I'm the one involved here, okay? Don't ignore the opinions of those involved and draw conclusions on your own, alright? And this... does this fit your identities? When did werewolves and vampires become so selflessly protective of humans? Let me, the most clueless one, understand this first, and then you can argue over your misunderstandings, okay?"

Lin Feng had been holding onto this question for a long time. In this age of information explosion and cultural integration, who didn't know about vampires and werewolves? Just do a random search in the fantasy movie library, and at least two out of ten movies are related to these two species. In Lin Feng's mind, bloodthirsty and irrational werewolves and sinister

, cold vampires were as conspicuous as symbols. But the two in front of him... what was going on?

If he couldn't figure out this question, he couldn't find a good rhythm even if he was trying to provoke them!

Surprisingly, Mu Yun and Vivian spoke in unison, "I'm not like those wild animals!"

Then the two girls looked at each other somewhat surprised, snorted coldly, and turned their heads away, clearly only trusting in their own sincerity.

"I don't know about other species, but it seems like they can't survive without opposing humans. But I've been with humans since I became conscious," Vivian said, hugging her arms. "And I instinctively... dislike other bloodline members. Don't ask me why, I don't know. It's been like this since I was young, and I also can't stand other 'abnormal beings' fighting humans; they're too foolish. That's it."

"I've never seen other 'abnormal beings,'" Mu Yun sniffed, seeming quite displeased with Vivian's "scent." "I woke up in a very cold place, probably a snowy field. I woke up in human form. I was adopted by an old lady and grew up with humans for decades. I only move when they start suspecting my lack of aging. I like humans, I'm used to humans. Any problem?"

Lin Feng looked at the two abnormal beings and decided to believe them.

Whether to believe or not, it's just that—he couldn't beat any of them.
