Kuraki Kyuuden no Shisha no Ou

I'm looking at this one with strong warlike eyes that Albatos and the woman he introduced are likely to jump at now. It's hard to believe they haven't attacked us yet.

Still looking back into Kainushi's eyes.

The creepy man, who doesn't know what he's thinking, rubbed his hand wrapped in thin leather gloves, creating an unpleasant look at this, he said.

"Unexpected? Even I was unexpected. For the rest of the time, it must be precious to those in your hands to perish. I... specialize in hunting."

"I need time to think"

I don't have time for you.

In my words, my neighbor Albatross grips the table and peels out his teeth. Thin fingers eat in and smudge and crackle into a thick wooden table. It's a terrible force even though it doesn't seem to be fortifying with positive energy.

But of course I can do the same.

I've been rebelling the rules and sucking blood because I expected them to be strong enemies, and I didn't challenge this negotiation without any measures.

Even the details of the transaction were not unexpected. It's just that the way things were done was a little more... peaceful than I expected.

There's only about a centipede, like what I have that they're going to want until they negotiate.

A little, maybe not.

I'm a monster. Cenri sympathizes with me, the monster, because it's what I'm hunted for. If that premise breaks down, there's no reason for Cenri to lean on me.

It's a good way to go. I don't think the Knights of the End will keep their word, but if they can hide their negative forces, their chances of escape success will increase dramatically.

"I have to breathe blood to live."

"I don't know. Hide negative forces and gain as much prey as you want safely. If you're a truly harmless vampire, there will be as many ways to do it."

In my words, Kainushi makes a face. [M]

... That's hard to do.

Sure, there are as many ways to do it.

Vampires are in a position to be hunted because their undead often get drunk on their bloodsucking impulses and suck up their prey's blood to kill them.

In addition, in the case of a true vampire, a curse can be used to turn the vampire into a dark relative. Vampires that explode into power are the enemies of mankind themselves.

But on the contrary, if I don't show that trait, I can remain harmless. The curse on me is useful in certain areas, so maybe someone can find a patron.

The paper Kainushi offered was a contract.

The pieces of paper themselves would have no power, but there was a statement there that I would leave the centipede of my own free will at the price of what Kainushi had just said - the night crystal and freedom.

"One pen, let's get it. Blood judgment, too. Proof it wasn't made to obey by violence... we have to pick up the selfish princess with it"

"... will not prove it"

"Be. Vampires are cursed. If you die, the body turns into dust. It's impossible to push a blood judgment from a corpse, and the knight of the end can discern your negative power stained with it."

Kainushi's voice sounded low and depressed.

... Isn't it strange that the centipede should be convinced and accepted?

I get my hands on my nose, and Kainushi puts the earlier crystals of my pinky nails on my desk from inside a small leather bag. It's small in size but it's a familiar crystal.

- It's real.

Understand instinctively. It is a crystal that absorbs negative signs that are constantly emanating from me and prevents them from spreading outside.

It is unclear if you can completely hide my signs at that size, but it would be much better than not. I want something so bad that I can get my hands out of my throat.

"Even at this size, it rarely comes out, it's a very rare item. Knock it off... if you're a family member at night, it's what everyone wants. It is not inherently a lower level."

"... cannot be replaced by a centipede"

For once, deny it. A peaceful life is what I seek, but it is stone. [M] There was a second, so I guess both the third and fourth exist in this world. There is only one Cenri in the world.

To my answer, Kainushi raised his eyebrows as if to speak.

"You are narrowing the future of Senli Silvis. I can't believe she thinks it's her happiness to follow you. If there's reason for people - shouldn't we let them go?

This is it. This man clearly identifies my weaknesses.

My strength is to have a human spirit, and so is my weakness.

Damn...... I can even remember empathy for a little while on the guy in front of me. It may be harder to do than a powerful end knight alone.

"Do you know what the princess got? My background is scratched, my former companions chase me, I fall ill and fall asleep. Didn't you just sip blood and shield your weakness into that tenderness? If you have people's hearts, think carefully."

In words, I'm weak when I'm stuffed with honesty. Because I have no justice.

Exactly. I understand without being told. I wanted to live with the weakness of the centipede, it took more, I didn't give anything, and... even then, I wanted to survive.

The measures have collapsed...... maybe.

What am I supposed to do?... No, it's decided.

Like a human, take a big, deep breath and look up at Kainushi.

"Cenri... gave me everything"

……

"Oh, don't get me wrong. Say you gave it to me, but it's not a virgin. She remains pure. So I can still do it as part of the Knights of the End. Sooner or later, I thought the day would come to return her to the Knights of the End."

I don't know what reason it is, but a strong blessing resides in a clean body.

So it seems that the End Knight is mostly pure, both men and women. That's one of their weaknesses, and some of the family and demons of the night take the lead in targeting that weakness.

Kainushi's eyebrows move pickly.

"It was awkward, or... I'll be facetious too"

When I took the pen I put on my desk, I wrote the name of the end without hesitation.

Didn't you expect me to follow the demands so lightly? Put your pen down and say to Kainushi, who looks at you.

"There's just one thing I have to say. I didn't snap the centipede... the centipede snapped me. I didn't take it, she gave it to me. Cenri made me human. Mr. Kainusi won't know, how he felt when he was human and suddenly he became a monster. And the joy of being accepted."

Albatos' pupil narrows as he leaks his rough breath but says nothing.

When I took the night crystal on the table, I put it in my pocket.

Bite through the skin of the right thumb and bring the blood seeping thumb closer to the contract.

"I... can't help but love Cenri. So if that leads to Cenri's happiness... we'll be happy to let it go"

force, push your thumb against the contract, and release it. My finger remains firmly on the contract. [M]

What is the reason that blood judgment remains even though it becomes ashes when you die?

I'm glad that's it. I can't think of any other way. I'm glad to hear that. After that - it's a bet.

When Kainushi lifted the contract and confirmed it before me, I nodded heavily and put it in my nose.

He smiles and offers his hand as if he were even shaking his hand at me.

"I can tell the story... it's good to be a vampire (vampire). My shoulder's loaded."

"By the way, I just want to confirm one thing..."

"... what?

I didn't hold my hand, sat back in the chair and narrowed my eyes.

Kainushi and Albatos. Absolutely, a terrible user. My readiness, listening to the words, hasn't changed the look of the two of you.

It's supposed to be this way that you're a monster, but it's like you're in the opposite position.

Yes, I imagine... vampire hunting, in itself.

Smile. This deal was a real hiatus.

And I raised my doubts. [M]

"Do you have that contract, the End Knight's permission? The Knights of the End, as I know it, are not a sweet bunch to warm up to monsters."

"... come on... they gave me a job, naturally. You're too conjectural."

That arm stretches out and grabs my arm. Power falls out at once.

But by then, I was kicking up the table.

A large, heavy wooden table flips over and the hand you were grasping comes off. The force that was about to fall out rapidly returns.

A roar sounds, a beat late and screaming and yelling from around.

It should have been a complete surprise attack, but Kainushi wasn't crushed to the table.

You quickly slipped aside and dodged, in a focused gaze, standing flat, laughing.

Was it even a cross planted under the gloves that lost its strength the moment it was touched? If I hadn't kicked up the table, I might not have waved my hand off.

But at that moment, it was a deep relief for me.

The relationship between vampire hunting and vampires has to be.

Kainushi pulls his sword out of his waist. It's a silver sword that feels terrible.

It's a cross. I know it by instinct.

That clearly meets the conditions of the vampire's feared cross. Given the grip and the size of the blade, he holds the unlikely large sword of the tweezer, and Kainushi laughs small.

"Don't feel bad, poor vampire (vampire). I haven't broken my contract. Let's at least destroy that soul with mercy."

Guests who perceive the situation scream and throw out the alcohol they have been drinking and the dishes they have been picking and kill them at the exit.

Yes, it doesn't make sense to vampire hunters, such as the crowd. End knights try to protect humans, but vampire hunting doesn't even try to protect people.

They hunt vampires because of money and - deep resentment.

Crazy man with no blessing talent who can overwhelm his dark family like the Knights of the End, but still strong emotions who can't give up.

Even if you kill a thousand people, if you can hunt a single vampire, take that as it is.

Those were the vampire hunters.

Lift the large table with one hand and tell Albatos to throw it away.

"You've been breathing plenty of blood. No matter how beautiful you throw up, you can smell it... Vampires."

"You're going to kill me and talk to Cenri on that leg."

"What, this is a little service. We're doing this individually... and we have to sell thanks to that monster."

Are you saying it's acceptable even if it's twisted? I see, the only request they got was to kill me.

I don't think you're going to let me get away with this. Well, that's right. If vampire hunting doesn't hunt vampires, you have to change your name.

But I didn't know you wouldn't even let me out of the store......

Kainushi takes the bottle out of his nose and sprinkles the liquid inside into his sword body. The puffiness and droplets drip from the sword body.

Ten and eighty-nine, it would be holy water that erodes the body of the undead. Never take it. Pure power is better up here, but I don't know how strong the Holy Water effect is.

Me and Kainushi are - just a little bit alike.

Just a little intimacy, laughing. Kainushi's eyebrows are praised. And cut my bill.

"Neither have I... I haven't broken my promise. I didn't tell anyone what the letter was about."

……

I don't talk. I just... I just showed you the letter.

I didn't even come with you when you came here. It's just... yes, I had them wait first at the rendezvous place.

It was dangerous. There was nothing I could do if they tried to negotiate peacefully until the end.

I can't be the one not wishing Cenri happiness.

"... give me your sword, give me your sword"

And as I planned, my cold voice echoed inside the barely populated tavern.
