243 Chapter 10 Blood Contract

After that, I finished talking nonsense, and there was only me and Lena in the room.

"Did you sort out your feelings a little?

"A little....."

Well, that's right.

I was told not only why my father and grandfather had been killed, but also the fact that my mother, who had been dead for so long, was alive.

There's no way you can sort out that feeling right away.

"I've been sealing my bad memories deep inside my head so I don't remember that day forever.Recently, I was happy to marry Milord... and I thought I'd finally been forgotten... but I remembered everything I said earlier. "

That would make you want to seal the memory of your parents being killed.

I don't even want to remember when my grandfather died.

"My bad memories... will you listen to me?

That's what Leena, who was pressing her face against my chest, pointed her eyes at me with tears.

You can't refuse to look like that.

Well, I wouldn't say no to Lena's request.

"Sure, don't hesitate to spit it out."

"Thank you."

"It's been a long time since my whole family gathered for the celebration that I was six years old.Grandpa and Grandma were wondering if they could see each other once a year... so I remember they were so cute that day. "

Six... ten years ago.

"We talked together and had a nice dinner... and we were so happy that time."

It's easy to think of the smile of Lina, who is still young.

"But many assassins broke their windows to destroy their happiness."

You just got here.

"When I think about it now... I feel like they were somebody else and they weren't.Even Grandpa's magic, who was an elf, couldn't fall... and I didn't think he was the same person. "

I don't suppose it's an assassination force for the Beasts and the Demons.

"Such opponents... the guards were gradually being attacked, and we were increasingly being chased down.And my mother said to my grandmother, "

"Please take Liana and run away.and..... "

Was it your mother's suggestion?Then I certainly don't dream that your mother was alive.

"I cried when I heard that.As little as I was, I realized that my moms were dying for me...Uhhhh.... "

"All right, all right. Don't push yourself, talk slowly."

Remember that time? I gently stroked Lena's head, which made her cry again.

For Lena, it's a horrible trauma above all else.

I just need to thank you for trying to talk to me like this.

"I desperately complained that I didn't want to leave my mother... but when she hugged me, I was drowsy... and I found myself in a carriage."

He must have been made to sleep by holy magic.

"When I woke up... the grandmother I saw in the carriage was covered in blood... it seemed very spicy.And yet you gently stroke my head to reassure me... uhh, uhh... gu "

"That's enough. It was hard....."

I hugged Lina.

"Leo-kun...."

It's been a long time since Lena called me Leo.

I've always been a husband here...

That would mean you're weak.

"All right, all right."

"Would Lena want to engage her father and grandpa if she met a vampire?

I watched Lena calm down again and asked what she was worried about.

Probably. As an assassin, the leader at the time was the vampire.

He's been alive for a thousand years.Your position will not change in ten years.

"I... honestly, I don't know.The assassins who killed your dads were terrified and felt hated.However, I don't think the assassins who attacked me at that time have anything to do with it... so I can't even try to do it again. "

Lena is kind.

Maybe I'll kill all the people involved.

"Still, a blood contract...I hear Lena can disarm it, but can I do it for you?

If you hate humans, maybe you don't.

"That's right...If you can, I want to do it for you. "

"Alright, if you say so, I'll help the poor vampire."

Let's break the curse and return you to the demonic world.

"Ah, but... I don't know how to disarm it.

Certainly. I don't think he'll tell me...

What should I do?

"That's troublesome...Oh, this is Anna!

All-purpose goggles that teach you everything you need to know when you need them.

I hurried Anna out of her bag.

"Speaking of which... you haven't seen Anna-san hanging around for a long time.Anna, aren't you angry?

"Speaking of which...."

I haven't worn it in years.

(I'm not angry.Yes, I'm never angry.)

I was very angry.

"Ah, Anna... uh..."

What should I do? I can't even think of an excuse.

(What is it?

"For now, I'm sorry."

I sat down.

Ah, even if I sat down with my goggles on, I just sat down on Lina.

Well, how should I convey my feelings?

(No, don't worry, you've been busy enough to forget me)

Apparently, you won't be able to fix your mood on the ground floor.

"That's why I'm sorry...."

(So, was it about the vampire blood contract?

Ah, apparently you're not going to accept my apology.

Ah, this is trouble.Next time, we'll have to wear goggles for a day.

"Ha, yes...Do you know anything about it?

(Of course.)

"Well, then, can you tell me?

(Good, but... there's one condition.)

"JJ, conditions?

Precise conditions were presented.Is that it, Anna? Wasn't it a magical item that could tell you anything you asked?

(Yes, can you change me?

"Do you want to change it?

(That's right. In goggles, portability is quite poor.It is recommended to make the earrings so that you can wear them without letting go.)

That's what I mean...

"I see...Earrings. "

I took off my goggles once.

"Well, what's the matter?

"Anna won't tell me what to do unless she replaces the earrings."

"Really...Can I use Creative Magic?

"If you just reconstruct it, you won't use that much magic.Besides, I can get Lena to refill it later. "

"Fufu. I see.I'll pour you plenty tonight. "

"Oh, thank you. Now, I'm going to rebuild it."

As expected, I didn't use that much magic to rebuild it.

I put a new earring on Anna's right ear.

(Now you won't forget my presence.)

"I'm sorry...So, can you tell me about the land contract?

(It would be good. A blood contract is a contract that literally takes place in blood.Vampires use blood magic called blood magic.One of them is a blood contract that curses each other's blood.)

"Curse? Is that okay?

(Yes, but if we don't break the contract...)

"What happens when you break a contract?

(You will never be able to disobey the blood of the contracting party)

Blood? Oh, is that why vampires can't defy the Pope, the descendant of the Virgin?

For a vampire who has lived for a thousand years, there is no more punishment.

"I see... So, how do we lift the curse?

It sounds like a very powerful curse, but the Pope's fear of the Virgin is definitely going to have some way to lift it.

(I think the curse will be lifted if we can tell the vampire that Liana is going to break the contract with blood.)

"With blood?What are you gonna do with the blood?

Just let the blood hang in the vampire's hand.

Is that the way to do it?

"Roger, thank you for telling me."

(No, don't hesitate to rely on it.The corners and portability have been improved)

"Uh-huh. Thank you very much."

It is my fault that I left this alone on an annual basis.

Next time, I'll talk to Anna when I'm free.

"Milord... can you tell me what to do...?

"I think we should renew the blood contract.Leana's blood in the vampire's hands, and if we make a deal to set her free, we'll settle down. "

"I see. But if the Pope tells me not to make a deal with me, I can't, can I?

If you ask me, yes.

"Ah, how about that...?Anna? "

(Don't worry about that.The blood of the Virgin is certainly thicker than that of Liana, so Liana takes precedence over the Pope's orders.)

"Well, it seems that Leena's blood takes precedence over the Pope's blood."

Well, that's why the Pope was afraid of Lina.

"Is that so...?Then there's nothing I can do to help. "

Lena's so sweet.

You said you and your grandfather were killed.

"I think it's probably your husband, too.

"Really?

I don't think I'm doing anything that's not too good for me.

You saved Sherry, Lina, Belle, and Elsie because you wanted to be liked, and I don't think that's any different from kindness.

"Yes, helping strange children and supporting the lives of captured slaves... I don't hate Kate even if she kills my master..."

"The orphanage and slavery were conceded for a hundred steps.Kate didn't kill the master, did she?

As for that, it was due to the Master's overexertion.

"But it was Kate who finally stabbed you.

"Yes, but...."

"Ah, I didn't say this because I wanted to fight.I just want you to know that Milord is nicer than me. "

"Really...?

Well, it certainly looks like we're going to have more fights, so let's just admit it.

"Yes, very gentle.I am so happy to marry such a gentle husband. "

"I'm happy to be married to my sweetheart, Lena."

"Fufu. I'm so glad you said that./(adv, adv-to, vs) (on-mim) (on-mim) yelling/"

Uh-oh

Lena smiled and pushed me down into bed.

Hey, what's going on?

"Please stay asleep.From now on, I'll slowly pour my magic on you.... "

Side: coup

This is the top floor of the cathedral.The pope's office.

I've been wondering for a long time, why is this office so big?

Put your desk down, and the Pope is only working in this room.

With that in mind, he looked at the Pope holding his head from the edge of the room to the opposite end.

"Damn it! Why!Show me the future!Hey, let me see!I don't want to end up here!

The Pope is in despair and admiration.Everything seems to have disappeared since today.

How could you be so scared in a day or so?

"Fufufu. You're really an idiot...If you give me a magic tool that I can see the future, you can move exactly as I want.That puppet. You're pathetic. "

I wondered how such a small object could have predicted it, but apparently it was this one.

After all, when the Reborn get involved, it won't be too much trouble.

"Hmm. Something I didn't think was going to happen."

"That's not true.It's so pathetic that the last vampire to live for a thousand years will end like this. "

If you want to kill me, you can kill me now.

Nothing to resist. I wouldn't fight a reincarnated man for him unless he told me to.

"I'm sorry. It's my policy to spend all the tokens I can use and then throw them away."

"Really...So, what do you want me to do?

"I want you to kill a girl."

A girl?

"Would you kill this girl?Then I will undo your curse. "

"This guy...."

Because of the curse, if you are commanded, your body moves on its own.

This is the usual thing, but this time it's a little confusing.

He must never have the blood of a Virgin.How could you have given me an order?

Transformation-specific skills?

"Karo-sama, what's wrong?

After walking out of the room for a while, Karo appeared from nowhere.

Perfect timing.

"What happened to Jill?

"Sexual intercourse with the Wesen is over... now I'm asleep."

I see. Stay in custody while you can.And use this when I give you the signal. "

"Eh? This is...."

I have permission from the Pope.

Of course it's a lie. However, the reincarnated people say they can do whatever they want for their purpose.

That's why you'll be fine.

"I see...."

"Now... he'll be a bit of a useless too.Well, it's only going to buy us some time. "

You don't have to think about the future anymore.

Anyway, it's all over tomorrow.
