"Do you know what the signs are?"
"Just roughly. I don't know the details. But he's here... in this town where Diana died. I don't think it's irrelevant. If he hadn't killed him directly, it would definitely have something to do with it."
Kuro grips his fist hard.
Kuro, who is always flustered, talks uncommonly with emotion and mood.
"If you know you're here, why don't you just take it away from the other vampires?
"I told you before, right? Vampires have their own circumstances. Not a single rock. Not as many men as you think. [M] Moreover, there are not many vampires who hate coming to human society itself. That's why I'm on my own ahead of time in many ways. If I fail, I will be able to do the following immediately."
You mean the vampire side?
Speaking of which, it seems that bleeding is forbidden, that we are working apart from each other until there is a meeting, and there are many constraints that we certainly do not understand.
"I understand. I can't expect reinforcements for now."
"That's the way it is."
There's a vampire named Caspere in town who thinks he killed Diana.
However, something is wrong... what is this discomfort?
Casper, vampires, signs.
"--Isn 't that strange?
"What's wrong?
"Why isn't he running? If Kuro can detect vampire signs, then so can they. Why didn't Kuro escape, knowing that he was chasing revenge?
If Kuro can detect Caspere and the others are in this town, Caspere should be the same.
If you know there's a vampire chasing you, you don't have to stay here.
"I don't think it's inconvenient to be chased... or even convenient?"
"That's something we don't even know right now. All I know is that he's here and there's no sign of escape. I have no choice but to ask them directly. Meet him."
"Do you have a guess?
Then Kuro fills his chest with confidence.
"What do you think you worked for in the tavern for? Actually, I was able to locate the scene of Diana's murder."
"The crime scene? It seems so easy to understand..."
"Apparently her death was clamped down by the Knights and there was little information. If Diana's body was autopsied and information that Diana was a vampire was already known within the Knights, then I nod. That makes it more confidential."
"I see. If that's true, is it possible that alien hunting will be involved?"
"That's what it is. Well, they're not a problem. What matters is the scene of the murder. Maybe there's Caspere near the scene. That's what I called you at this time. If there was a reason to stay in this town, could you contact me? If you still don't know where I am, the most likely thing to encounter is the scene where Diana was killed."
"I mean, when I met Caspere, it signaled the start of the fight."
Kuro nods with cockroach.
So that's my blood. I was wondering why it was necessary to be awake, but all questions cleared up.
This is a battle between vampires.
"For now, I'm going to go undercover tonight. Can you come?
I don't know what Kuro is asking me to do for the rest of my life.
Besides, I can't say I'm not interested in vampires who killed vampires.
If there's a fight there, you'll need my blood.
"- I can't help it. Sure, I'll be there."
Kuro gripped my hands tightly.
"Sorry, Gil. You're the only one I can count on."
"We've known each other a long time, haven't we? Don't repeat that now. We got a give-and-take relationship, right? Someday I'll get my debt back."
"Ahahah, it looks really like you. - Let's go tonight."
"Where is it?
"There's a dock on the other side of the tavern. There is a warehouse nearby that stores cargo and stuff. That's where we're going."
"It's a harbor warehouse. It's a crazy place. It's been a long time since my arm rang."
Then Kuro laughed lightly.
"I'm counting on you, my greatest magician."
"Former, the most powerful magician. Now I'm a gruesome, outrageous new sorcerer in a sorcery school rookie fight."
"There's a big newbie here."
◇ ◇ ◇
- Night.
In the dark quiet darkness, only the sound of the waves can be heard.
Equally spaced streetlights illuminate the ground.
Huge warehouses line up creepily in the darkness of the night.
There will be a lot of loading and vibrancy during the day, but there will be little traffic at night.
Me and Kuro walk through the night, heading for the warehouse of interest.
According to Kuro, the scene of Diana's murder is Warehouse 6.
"Up ahead. You see that warehouse over there?
Kuro pointed to three warehouses lined up.
The number 4 is written on the warehouse in front of you.
That means the deepest warehouse is No. 6.
The size of the warehouse is quite large, and it looks like it could fit in quite a bit.
And even if something happens inside, it won't go out a little slowly.
"Is that Warehouse 6? It's pretty big after all."
Hold on, there's someone here.
Seeing Kuro pointing, a man with a pair of pines in his hand stands in front of the warehouse.
He is wearing armor all over his body and a sword hanging from his hips.
"Kalisto's Knight"?
"No, the decor is too luxurious for that. You're not the knight who's stationed in Calisto. Higher."
"So... you're a alien hunter?
"It's highly probable, but I don't really remember hunting for aliens wearing armor."
"Then what the hell is that?"
"I can't help worrying about my affiliation. Probably the security knight. Let me talk to you for a second."
That's how Kuro progressed slowly.
"Ah, hey!
I have no choice but to follow after sighing.
What if they find out I'm a vampire? I still don't want to see blood. Well, Kuro's a pseudo, and he won't find out about vampires.
As we approached, the knight touched the sword on his hips.
What are you doing? You're not allowed in here.
Black opens his mouth white.
"Oh, is that so? Something wrong?
"I won't tell you! Go away!"
"No, no, it's not that bad, it's the people who live in this town, it's good enough to ask what happened, right?
"I said no! I'll take you with me if I'm too persistent!
"What's wrong, Ed?"
As Kuro argues with the sentinel knight, a woman's voice can be overheard from behind.
The knight called Ed saluted in a hurry and said in awe.
"Oh no, Lord Vargo! There were suspicious people who wanted to know what happened here..."
Red hair, beautiful straight hair.
There was some majesty in the woman with a straight face.
But somehow, I've seen it somewhere.
Valgo?
I twist my neck for a second on a familiar name.
The answer came quickly.
Because I knew the woman in the armor.
A bright red armor that stands out.
It seems easy to move and has a luxurious feel.
There are two pairs of brown-haired nannies dressed as gentlemen behind my head and a green-haired man who always seems lazy.
Yes, this armor belongs to the King's Special Knight (Zodiac)!
And... it's Riol's mother!!
