Rio fell on his back on the dining room floor.
I held both of Rio's wrists in a banzai position with both hands, while restraining the girl's movements.
"To, brother... hey, what, all of a sudden..."
Rio underneath me was staring at me like I was blushing.
"Sir!? What--"
Iris rushes up from the chair and tries to rush over, but Mayfa, who has stood up for it as well, controls it by hand.
"... it's okay, Illis.... your brother is decent.... maybe it's not decent, Rio"
"What...?
I see.
Because Illis was asleep when he inquired about Rio's hiding, don't you know what's going on?
I speak to Illis while I try not to distract him from Rio.
"Illis, I'm sorry I haven't restored my magic, but can you do the magic of [tranquillity] to Rio?
"What...? What the hell..."
"… which I will explain"
Mayfa will explain the situation to the bewildered Illis.
At a time like this, the presence of Mayfa, who perceives my thoughts and moves with the breath of Ayumu, doesn't really help.
Meanwhile, Rio, whom I'm holding back, sighed, saying, "You mean..." and looked somewhere relieved, unfortunate.
Rio looks straight at me and says:
"Hey brother... I knew you were going weird?
"It's not about Rio getting sick. I'm glad Rio's okay."
"Something about that line, it's weird when you say it in this attitude. I'm about to get attacked by my brother, aren't I?
"You know... don't be weird. I didn't know how Rio would move in the 'fascinated' state, so I just let him hold me back."
"I know that.... oh, I wish I could have done this on the bed anyway"
"... Hey, this is Rio. It's not Mayfa, and don't make fun of adults too much."
"I'm not even teasing you..."
While we were having such an exchange with Rio, it also seemed that the explanation by Mayfa to Iris was over.
Iris stands before us and exercises his magic against Rio.
"─ ─ [Peace (Sanity)]!"
The magical light emitted by Illis envelops Rio.
A little, the light sucked into Rio and disappeared.
"... Rio, what do you say?
"Uh... yeah. After all, I think I've been hit by the [Enchanted Demon's Eye]. My heart was pulled back.... brother, you can let go of me now"
It's also strange that he told me to let him go, but I retreated from the top of Rio and freed her from detention.
Rio says, "Ha, thrilled," etc., while dusting off his clothes and getting up.
"Rio, can you tell us what happened?
When I heard that, Rio nodded.
And Rio told me the whole story of what happened to him a while back.
Your brother stepped into the house where Vampire Spawn was, then.
I was splitting up with Iris to evacuate the villagers, and I stopped in front of a house.
The house had an entrance door open.
So I thought it was dangerous, and I went to tell the guy in the house to close the entrance door.
Then I was in the house.
My sister.
Cecilia had a sister.
All the windows were closed except the door to the entrance to the house.
Sister stood alone in a dim, sunless house.
But she was definitely Cecilia's sister, but she was a little different.
Atmosphere......?
Blonde hair and blue eyes on that street, a little taller than me.
That kind of place was my know-it-all Cecilia sister.
You didn't look like a sister in your outfit.
I wasn't wearing armor, I was wearing it like a white one-piece dress, and it wasn't like that usual cool feeling, it was like a lily flower somewhere.
So, the vibe...
Something about my sister when I'm serious, and my sister when I'm pitiful, not either.
I don't know... luscious, huh?
My sister laughed at me, feeling so cold.
But me, I was uncomfortable, but I was happier that my sister was safe than that, and I told my sister.
-Good, I was worried.
Your brother's over there, so let's go with him.
Then sister, here's what I said.
─ ─ Yeah, Rio.
I don't really want to go out in the daytime anymore.
So, that's how when my sister opened her mouth, I saw it.
My sister's teeth - her back teeth were longer and sharper, both right and left.
Like a vampire-- like a vampire.
Yeah, it's not "like" or "like".
Sister Cecilia was a vampire.
Such a sister approached me step by step.
I'm scared, I pulled my sword out.
I didn't know why.
'Cause we lived together until this time, and we taught each other a lot, and we slept together at night.
I think he was a normal person, not an absolute vampire or anything then...
Because the atmosphere is completely different.
But my sister, after all, is my sister.
Me, I don't know what to do anymore, and I said to my sister, "Don't come! I said."
Then, sister, Nico laughed and said:
─ It's me, I've stopped listening to Rio.
I'll be honest with my desires.
Do you hate me like that, Rio?
So, my sister's eyes glowed demonically red.
I looked him in the eye and I said...
─ Yeah, I love my sister.
I like it more than anyone else.
You can give it all to my sister.
No, it's not!
At that time, something... my heart felt like it was all taken by my sister... anyway, it didn't feel normal!
... Back to business?
So, then my sister laughed and said this again.
─ Yeah, I'm glad.
But I really want to eat about Rio right now, but I'm still gonna put up with it now.
Instead, I'd like you to do me a favor.
Me, look at that sister's smile and take it easy.
Think I'd do anything for you.
So my sister asked me to open the entrance door to the inn and invite my sister in because my sister is visiting this inn this evening.
And tell your brother to keep quiet about it.
Why did you think that, but if my sister said "please" again, I couldn't say anything anymore.
For your sister, you said you had to do whatever it is, think so.
But when I broke up with my sister and joined my brothers, I just calmed down a little bit.
I'm really getting worried that it's okay to do what my sister says...
"So... Brother, I'm sorry! I almost did something terrible!
Rio, who was talking in the dining room, bowed his head to me.
I'll put my hand on that Rio head and be nice to him.
"That's why Rio never gets sick. You were just hit by the ability of [Magic Eye]."
"... yeah. That's true, but..."
"I'm fine. I'm relieved."
I'll hold Rio softly and slap him on the back.
Then Rio eventually cried out, wondering if he'd shoved his face against my chest and whimpered.
Well, can't you help it?
It might be a little hard to break it off if it wasn't your fault.
The [Tranquillity (Sanity)] used by Illis is a magic that helps calm the excited mind or deactivate the effects of magic or special abilities that interfere with the spirit and restore it to its normal state.
The [Magic Eye of Attraction] placed on Rio originally seemed to have taken a lot of strength in favor and helping Rio against Cecilia, but the magic of [Tranquillity (Sanity)] also lifted its effect.
Now I can say that the most recent crisis has left.
But...
"Cecilia is a vampire..."
If the story of Rio now is true, it sure just seems so.
Moreover, having [fascinating demonic eyes] and the fact that the eyeballs look more or less normal than bright red is a hallmark of true vampires themselves rather than spawns and the like.
When it came to the possibility that something was happening to Cecilia, I was prepared.
I was ready, but when I got stuck like this as a finality, there's still something tight.
Cecilia, when she lived with us, was certainly a human brave man, not a vampire or something.
So as Cecilia "became a vampire for some reason," that should be what happened within the last week or so.
Then there is still a good chance that Cecilia will be able to return to the human race with the [Ultimate Healing (Ultimate Heel)] of Illis.
But in the first place, what "some cause" made Cecilia a vampire...
Considering that, cold sweat comes out.
As a matter of fact, aren't we now facing such an extraordinary situation that we can call it a crisis in this world itself?
Whatever it is, the first prerequisite is to contact the Guild of the Brave.
I retrieved the Magic Guide and accessed the number of the Brave Alliance in the city of Lindbergh.
