"In the first place, the Demon Nation is a long life. The life expectancy varies from one person to the next, but if you are a long one, you will live 1,000 years. The former demon king is young, but he's still alive for 700 years."

"Mr. Arf is Jizzy..."

Wilsas asks for Chirali and Arf in Sashalia's words.

"Well, you are. The Demon Clan has an approximate lifespan determined by the amount of magic. And it slows down the appearance as you live. In my case, there hasn't been a change in appearance in the last 500 years."

"Well, that's true about demons, but there's a lot we don't know about you demons."

"If you don't know, why don't we just talk about it now?

Sashalia leans her neck toward the words of Wilsas, who was thrown out as she grumbled. Wilsus laughed and nodded small at the appearance of such a girl.

It was only a few moments later that Rio, who had finished his conversation with the Wilsas, returned.

"Sorry to keep you waiting"

"No, I'm not waiting that long. What's more, have you got a good connection?

"Yes."

"Yes, I get it. Then let's go."

It follows after Wilsas, who nodded at Wilsas' words, took Sashalia and Sylvian out of their cells and held the lights.

There were things running into Rio when they came out of the basement.

"Wow!? That, Lapis! Jets on Ruby, Amethyst and Beryl, and Nigi too! You're all early."

A large whale with five Forest Wolves and two heads swarming Straw and Rio. The three, with the exception of Arf, have their eyes open to surprise at the sight.

"Are those demons subordinated to Mr. Rio?

"Oh, yeah"

"Humans keep demons subordinate? But that demon..."

"One, there's something wrong with you."

Sylvian narrowed her eyes softly to seep the color of vigilance.

At the end of that gaze is a nigi that stops at the back of Lapis.

"Oh, it's that wu, isn't it? He doesn't know the race either. There are strange signs, but it didn't even feel like it would harm Rio, so I let it go. I'm not very good at light magic."

"It's not the magic of cursing. The concubines can do it. You want to try?

"You can try it if Rio allows it. Whatever he is, he's just a demon now subordinated to Rio."

"Right. Let's talk about the contract first. It's easier for your concubines."

"There's a lot more to worry about. Well, no, let's not let it calm us down."

Let them play with Rio all the way until the Lapis and the others are satisfied, and then the line walks out again. We arrived in the first room where Rio and the others played face-to-face with Wilsus.

"Well, can you tell me more about the blood contract first?

Rio sits in the middle, arf and wilsas to its left and right. On the couch for reception where Sashalia and Sylvian sat face-to-face, it was Wilsus who cut the story out.

"Ah. The concubines can only have one blood contract in their lifetime. If a contract is signed, blood other than that person will no longer be accepted. But instead, even a small amount of the contractor's blood will provide sufficient nutrition."

"A little amount can nourish you, and restore your magic. Because it is highly affected, it is okay to leave a few days between ingestions"

"Instead, if the contractors die, so do the concubines. From the moment we signed the contract, we became a community of destiny. Well, the contractors will die even if the concubines die."

Hmm, a sip of tea prepared by Wilsus who nodded, so? and tilt his neck.

"Does the contractor have any advantages?

"Contractors improve their physical abilities only a few hours after being sucked. Don't get more self-healing after that. If it's about the cut, it'll heal in an instant."

"And most of the contractors will live a very long life because the bloodsuckers who made the contracts to keep the contractors from dying will do everything they can to protect them from everything."

Wilsus nodded at the explanation and looked softly at the two of them.

"I see, I generally get it. So Sashalia wants to make a blood pact with Rio."

"It's not just concubines. Concubine and twin Sylvian need to be identical as twins and therefore contractors. Rio will be asked to sign a contract with the two concubines."

"Doesn't it just double Mr. Rio's burden for both of us? Or double your physical and healing abilities, too?

"Time to improve your physical abilities will grow. But I don't know any more. I've never met anyone but my concubines."

Rio relaxes for a cup of tea to talk about being able to proceed without the party and strokes Lapis sitting at his feet.

I know the advantages I can give myself and the advantages I can give them. As far as I can tell, I also know that there will be no harm to me.

Wilsus bought me a way out of the conversation and I was able to think slowly.

What Rio needs now is strength and allies. If both were available, it was trivial, such as giving blood to the two bloodsucking families on a regular basis.
