Possessing Nothing

Five years have passed since Eine was born, and she has learned many things. The time that Eine began to exist was never long, but the five years that Eine spent were so dense that it could not be compared to the five years of ordinary existence.

It was because of Eine's ability to eat and learn. She could easily learn the ability of a heart owner by chewing on someone else's heart. Prescan brought Aine north because he thought the North was the best place for her to learn easily.

‘I didn't think it would happen like this. ’

The north of the great Eria. I just never imagined there would be a vampire queen, Genniella, in Travia, the big city. If I'd known this was gonna happen, I'd have gone south. No, it wouldn't have made things much better.

If Eria's north side is the land of the external horoscope, the south side is the land of the White walkers. There are savage aboriginals and various monsters and ghosts. Although there are no exogenous species in the north, monsters and ghosts are of even worse quality when compared to exogenous species such as vampires, Lycanslopes, and Reaches. They are unhesitant and accustomed to violence because they do not know that they are restrained.

“It's me.”

Prescan stands at Eine's door and calls her name. The voice that called her was full of love for her as a father. In fact, Prescan considers Eine his own daughter. I wasn't wrong. Even if it wasn't born by Prescan himself, the heart and body of Eine was made by Prescan himself.

“Yes.”

The door opens, and there's only one bed in the room with nothing. Eine was sitting on that bed looking at Prescan. She pushes the tentacle into her body, a long stretch to open the door.

After five years, Eine's body did not grow, so she looked like a little girl. Young children are not very vigilant. It may vary depending on the situation, but ordinary people are not wary of young boys and girls. Just as tigers and leopards have patterns to hide their bodies, Eine's young appearance was disguised as a predator to hunt their prey more efficiently.

“Looks like the heart thief came to town. ”

Eine's eyes flashed and opened.

The conversation with Xeniella was surprisingly straightforward. She didn't ask for anything great. In retrospect, there was no great weight in the conversation during the meal, even though I didn't have to stutter.

“... It was delicious, right? ”

Rubia next to Lee Sung-min shakes and asks. Seong-min nodded, feeling the same emotion. As Xeniella confidently said, the meal at her mansion was excellent. The color of the wine next to it was so red, I doubted it was mixed with blood at first, but it was just wine.

‘See you next time. ’

I like what jenniela said on the tour. I wanted to speak informally, but I couldn't overhear it just because it was a vampire queen. Geniella's violence is enough to compel a rational person to do anything. I refused to stay at the mansion, but I could have forced Geniella to stay at the mansion if she really wanted to.

‘But I let him go. Why...?'

[I like you.]

Heju laughs and says.

[She's gone crazy. I can get it, but I can't. What she wants is not to take the toy she wants with me, but to come in from the toy side, begging her hand.]

‘I don't know what you mean. ’

[She asked you to be a vampire. And you refused. That's where it all started. Her unpleasant hobby.]

‘... Are you waiting for me to come and make myself... a vampire?' ’

I would never do that. I want to be a monster. I don't want to be a vampire.

Since he came all the way here, he decided to use the accommodation in the central district. I was annoyed and didn't feel the need to go to the outskirts.

‘Eyes.’

I have a lot of eyes to look at. Rare mixed gazes could be a disguise, but it was only blatant for Lee Sung-min to feel.

I can't see beggars. ’

I don't see any beggars in the metropolitan area, nor in the most developed central district. I can guess why. A crazy city where even Muslim members are beaten to death, but beggars belonging to the Open can't just walk around like that.

“Oh.”

The voice heard from nearby caught Lee Sung-min's footsteps.

“You and I often see each other at unexpected moments. ”

I had to agree with Lee Sung-min.

Kim Jong-hyun handed Rob's hood over to the back of his head and showed a smile towards Lee Sung-min. It was the first time I met Kim Jong-hyun since killing the sword in Dre Moore.

“At that time, she left me as if she had been seduced by something. I wish I had just handed him a small word. ”

“… I had to do something unexpected. ”

“Then you have to understand. ”

Kim Jong-hyun replied with a greedy face. I never thought I'd see Kim Jong-hyun again in Travia. Lee looked at Kim Jong-hyun's face. Although it had been two years since then, Kim Jong-hyeon's face remained unchanged. If you think about it, Kim Jong-hyeon has not changed since the first time I saw him five years ago.

“Why are you here? ”

“Since two years ago, Trabia has heard of monsters with different circumstances and bad men with different circumstances. Such a Trabia is a good place for a Black Wizard to work. ”

“… Is that why you're here? You're not black.

I thought you said you were going to be a passenger? ”

“Just because you're a horse tower doesn't mean you have to stick to it. You just have to keep doing what you're doing. ”

Kim Jong-hyun shrugged.

“I was fascinated by the city of Travia. That's why I'm here after a long vacation. I didn't think I'd see you here...”

“… who is that person? ”

Rubia, who was next to Lee Sung-min, asked in a small voice. Kim Jong-hyeon also opened his eyes, looking toward Rubia.

“Demibeast. Slave? ”

“No, I'm not.”

“Oh... excuse me. I misjudged you. Not Demibeast... Hmm...”

Kim Jong-hyun's eyes turned into an explorer. He glances blatantly at Rubia, and rubia hides behind Lee's back as if her gaze were embarrassing.

“... Artificial life... This is... amazing. There are many wizards who criticize the creation of artificial life, but the creation of artificial life is only a tiny fraction of wizards that are close to their apex. Where the hell did you get that? ”

“… he's a man who only speaks in the first place. ”

Rubia's shoulders narrow. She stared at Jonghyun Kim and spit it out.

“I don't want you to handle things. ”

“Oh... I'm sorry. I'm not very good at talking. ”

While saying that, Kim Jong-hyun bowed his head.

“I think it's fate, too. How about a light meal? ”

“I appreciate the offer... but I already ate. ”

“Do you have a place to stay? ”

“No, I came into Trabia today and haven't found a place to stay yet. ”

“Then will you come to my house? ”

Jonghyun Kim suggested with a smile. Lee hesitated for a moment and nodded his head. I have met Kim Jong-hyeon several times. Of course, I don't think I got everything from Kim Jong-hyun after a few meetings.

But I thought to myself, I think Kim Jong-hyun might be the nobleman who will meet in the north.

I did not travel that far from Kim Jong-hyun. Although not at all comparable to Genniela's mansion, Kim Jong-hyeon opened the door to a house on the second floor that was much better than a shabby house on the outskirts.

“It's a pretty nice house. ”

Kim Jong-hyun said, taking off the robe he was wearing. The naked robe shifts and dangles from the clothing rack on the wall.

“I bought it because it came at a good price. I don't know how long I'll be staying in this city, but I think it's more convenient to find a home than to use an inn. ”

“Is that so?”

“What have you been doing? ”

Jonghyun Kim asked me to sit down. Then, Kim Jong-hyeon once saw the barding that Lee Sung-min was wearing, and there, he looked up and looked at Lee Sung-min's eyes.

“… a lot has changed since I saw you two years ago. So is strength. Especially that Barding... I don't know what it is, but I feel a strong presence that I don't understand. ”

[Good eye.]

Heju mutters, ignoring the voices of Hesitar.

“I had a chance. ”

“There are no accidents in this world. But there is a destiny. Maybe it's fate that you and I reunited here. ”

Kim Jong-hyun said that and laughed. Destiny. Lee Sung-min still did not truly believe in what fate is, and the existence of that ambiguity.

“You said you were in Travia on a sightseeing trip. ”

“Yes.”

“… I'm not sure what there is to see in this city. ”

“Isn't that interesting? ”

Kim Jong-hyun said so, and twitched his fingers. There was a rattling sound in the kitchen, and the kettle and cup flew in.

“Extraterrestrials are gathering in Travia. ”

Kim Jong-hyun opened his mouth.

“Most of the outsiders gathering are predators... Ah. Do you know what a Predator is? ”

“I know. ”

“Hm. I see. Anyway... Most of the outsiders gathered in Travia belong to the Predator. Not all monsters have the power to fear, but some of them are powerful enough to hold their own throughout the world. ”

Vampire Queen has lived for over 600 years. Lycanslope, once known as the Vagabond, is one of the greatest werewolves of all time. Many outsiders from the Predator who are leading them both.

“The vampire queen took over Travia, and the werewolves took over the outskirts of Travia. In fact, that was a long time ago. They were in Trabia, even during the time of the bloodlines and bloodlines. It just didn't stand out. ”

It's the same today. Kim Jong-hyeon added.

“Vampire Queens are doing little in public. But her sires, the vampires, they're watching Travis. The same goes for werewolves. The Gate is known for being a small and medium-scale tribe, and actually it's behaving that way. Isn't it strange? The fanatic who owns the Gate has the power to exterminate one of the Old Testaments by himself if he wants to. It's the same with vampire queens. So why did the bloodline leave Travis to rule? ”

“… because you don't want to get noticed? ”

“You could say that. In fact... it was meaningless. Bloody blindness or not. They had the power to wipe out the bloodlines and the bloodlines if they wanted to. I just didn't do it because I didn't have to. And as the bloodlines collapsed on W. Hoyen, Trabia took the ideal form that they wanted. ”

The city of the Ottomans. As the reigning Hematomas crumbled, many witches raised their heads to become masters of Travia. Many outsiders have gathered in Trabia as security has gone haywire and control is lost.

“I don't know what Predator is trying to do here. But clearly, they're trying to do something. So it's interesting -- monsters at the apex of an extraterrestrial species that haven't been adhered to for centuries are trying to do something. Maybe there's a history going on here. ”

Kim Jong-hyun's face said that with ecstasy.

“I want to see it. ”
