Episode 503: Yarlan's Shadow and Himself

I woke up.

I was going to go back to the inn, get as much sleep as I could get today with this hard body to sleep for tomorrow, and wake up neatly and go back to malt.

Looking outside, it was only midnight.

It's quiet and dark in the middle of the night, so to speak of the king's capital.

There's no sign of people, and all I see is drunkenness once in a while.

There is much more darkness than light, though the lights of magic props blur through such a King's Capital town.

Deep darkness everywhere......

It's warm for me. I jumped into it.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

This body, immortal, can be foreseen far, no matter how dark it may be.

It looks just like noon.

Is that because this body belongs to those who live at night?

To capture a young daughter who walks, to soak her blood......

I don't know.

My sucking urge is terribly weak, either because I'm getting Lorraine's blood.

So much so that I can only think of it as something I can live by eating people.

No, is it really not?

I'm not, at least, the vampire Vampire, according to Niv's discernment.

So what is it?

What kind of demon am I with a body that finds pleasure in sucking people's blood...

I don't know.

I'm afraid I don't know.

Think of it, it came a long way.

Somewhere I thought I would have to expose my body to death sooner or later in Malt, but somehow I come to the Wang Capital and normally interact with my opponents, such as the head of the royal family, the back organization, and the Eastern Catholic monks, who used to be very, but not even close under my feet.

The force is stretching and even trying to reach the silver class, which was only a transparent goal.

If I keep running like this, I feel like I should go anywhere.

However, I guess this is complacency, too.

I met all kinds of people, and what I found out was that I was still nothing but weak.

There's no sign you can even reach where Lorraine stands on my right all the time.

He said he got the demon body and he got the art of getting stronger.

Funny.

Everywhere......

Walking alone in a city where no one is, I'm immersed in such a backward thought.

I can't believe I'm going to do this. I just have to work on it.

But I just wanted to think on my own, and shake it off, and feel good about it tomorrow.

That's why I was wandering the city all by myself.

"... it's just a little bit of an accident, isn't it?

So even when I heard a voice like that in my ear, my reaction was delayed.

- Huh?

My body was already floating in the universe the moment I tried to get it out of my mouth.

I was blown away.

My chest hurts hard.

"... well, I see. Are you on this side too (...)? I was wondering if it would be good for bait... then you can't."

I tried to utter words thinking about what you were talking about, but I don't have a voice.

I don't know what you mean... I realize that the sound is coming from my throat.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Think it would be a hassle if they screamed. I made a hole."

When I did my hand down my throat, there was nothing there.

Meat is taken.

Even so, I'm lucky I'm unhappy because my head and body still seem to be connected...... lucky?

No, no, whatever, what the hell is this?

Why, he was suddenly attacked.

In the first place, what is this guy?

If you observe again, he was a strangely dressed man.

Sticks on men's clothes... what's on your mouth... is my meat?

So they just took it.

What a bad diet.

I don't think I'm good where I ate...

"You seem surprised, but you have a lot of room, don't you? Are you confident you won't disappear here? Without realizing it at all, he said that he had suffered all that wounds... oh I wonder if he expects his parents"... "to come and help him...? But if it ends in an instant, it won't make sense to that expectation either..."

Shortly after I said that, the man moved through the air and came to my sight, opening his big mouth.

With the twitching sound of a massive amount of water, the man's body turned darker than the darkness of night, and his whole body turned into a big mouth.

So, I kind of see who I am.

I can see it... but it's not good.

Is this packed here?

Will I end up here?

The agony springs up.

I wonder if I have any means, but I can't think of anything...... oh, no.

That's not true.

I should do it too (...).

The moment I think about it, my body sinks into darkness again.

Differentiation.

It would be a huge mouth closing. Running outward than space, avoiding that attack......

"... an unusual 'differentiation'. I can't tell you about people either...... but compressed Dehisse"

When a man unravels the Differentiation and points his finger towards me, pressure is exerted from all directions as if it were tightened with all his might, and the "Differentiated" body that tried to escape is pushed towards one point.

I'll try to resist, but the power is different in the first place.

It's like an ant rebelling against an elephant, I can't bounce back at all, I'm just pushed in...

"Differentiation is convenient, but there are many ways to deal with it. Couldn't my parents"... "teach me details? Well, there's nothing I can do if the power is open where I knew it..."

Shit.

I really can't help it if this guy's right.

Let's do something else......

Oh, I don't know if it's a suicide bomber or something with a holy demon temper fusion.

That's all I can think of anymore......

If this happens, I'll have to try that method to reward even one arrow rather than ending up doing nothing here like this.

When I decide to be ready for it,

"... Huh!?

Suddenly, the pressure I was feeling from my surroundings faded away.

And so is the figure of a man.

Where the hell...

I managed to land on the ground and look around for a moment, but there was no sign of a man.

Instead it was......

"... Mr. Lent. Are you all right, sir? Sorry I'm late."

He followed us all the way to the king's capital, he was your man.

In other words, it is the vampire Vampire of Laura's family.

Hence, you must be far stronger than me.

He talked about being a junior vampire, Lesser Vampire, but you lied in this way.

Isaac took care of me and watched out for the strong, is that it?

Well, that's good now.

than that,

"... what the hell was he now?

"That is the enemy of my Lord. I was chasing him because I felt signs, but I think I ran into Mr. Lent along the way... It's just... you noticed I was close. Looks like he's already out of King's Capital. Don't worry, Mr. Lent."

"Enemies... enemies of Laura. Mind if I ask what kind of guy you are?

"Yeah. That's one of Ark Tahadu's" grandchildren, "the king of vampires Vampires. It has unparalleled power with the regular vampire Vampire. Glad you're safe..."

I'm relieved to say that, but I'm tempted to hear that you're powerful enough for such a person to escape.

The man goes on, knowing or not how I feel like that.

"You won't have to worry about the future either, as I wasn't after Mr. Lent, I just happen to see him. However, if you ever see anything like that in the future, run away or let our house know...... see you tomorrow"

That's all I said, the man disappeared into the dark.

Let's disappear vividly, and we can no longer follow the signs.

"... really, you're weak, I am"

We need to work harder.

I thought so again.
