"Vampires......?

"Are you talking about that gaga story?

Ilia and Miss Raini ask to confirm. Regardless, Miss Raini saw a rare and bewildering color on Ilia's face.

Nothing strange about the reaction between the two of them. Vampires are nothing but gay tales, at least in the perception of ordinary people.

Says a monster sipping people's blood. I can't keep my parents' word, and if the sun goes down and I'm walking away, I can speak to a beautiful person.

He's so beautiful, he sucks up blood and becomes one of the vampires when he follows him as he is invited.

But no one has ever actually seen a vampire, and the damage has not been reported. So it is only the existence of the Goga story. It is thought to be a creation to make children listen.

"Not when you're a vampire, but you're trying to tell me that vampires are real."

"Is it not?

Miss Raini and Ilia all aligned in my rhetoric and looked suspicious. Honestly, I don't want to talk about it. Because there is no certainty as to why. But if my hypothesis is correct, Miss Raini will still be a vampire.

If we don't talk hypotheses, though we don't prove it, we can't move on. I open my heavy mouth in sigh.

"I say vampires are prototypes of vampires."

"Vampire prototype?

"I have a story based on a vampire's gaga story. Hypothesis inferred from materials and artifacts with few records at the time. So there is no certainty. Still listening?"

"... let me hear it"

Miss Raini nods with a serious look on my foreboding face. It's about me, so I guess I'm desperate. I nod one at Miss Raini like that and keep explaining.

"I think the prototype of a vampire was born out of some wizard study."

"Wizard, is it?

"Yes. Vampires are those who magically embody immortality in a limited way. Half-dead, but one who fell into a demon who gained long lives by magical powers. That's the vampire."

Miss Raini was relieved by the hypothesis I told her. Because of the tension, the hand I was holding on my chest is shaking. I keep talking pretending not to notice it.

"It was a long time ago. I don't know exactly how many generations ago it was. It is certain that it was before the vampire's gaga story spread. There were certainly people who became archetypes of vampires in those days. The figure, read and painted from the remaining research material, is a man who risked his life on a magical quest, who fell into despair and madness with an understanding of the time of death"

It's a coincidence that I found that record. I am surprised that there are vampires and named beings in this world, and I have been wondering where their origins came from.

Working also as an adventurer, I coincidentally took the opportunity to browse the Wizard's research materials to become a prototype of a vampire. It is called a “forbidden book," a book describing knowledge that should not be spread in the country. The research material was one such forbidden book.

"Shall I call him for convenience? Being a prototype of a vampire, he was an excellent wizard. And by studying magic, he was trying to trace the truth of the world. But there's one difficulty with him."

"Difficulty......?

"Life expectancy. No matter how capable a wizard is, it cannot withstand life expectancy. He has become afraid of death. I didn't do anything good to decay in the middle of the road. At the end of his talent and obsession, he has completed one study. It was about" taking it away from others. "

"... take away?

"If you're old, be young. If you cannot make up for your own life, transfer it from one person to another. Take it away from the" others "so as to make up for what is missing. He has completed such magic. By incorporating the blood of others into himself as a mediator, he tried to cross life expectancy and limits.... and I'm guessing"

"Is that a guess?

Ilia asks me with a suspicious look on her face as she follows the story och. I guess it's because I was clouded at the end for talking so much. That's why I didn't want to be honest with you.

"I also only read it from research material and all I had to do was fill it in with my imagination. I don't know the boulder until the details of the procedure, and I just guessed it in the first place, so I might be wrong. But if my reasoning is correct, the wizard has somehow gained the power to sustain himself by taking the blood of others while dying."

"... can you make magic like that?

"I don't think there's anything I can do. My ideas are flying by the time I just try, and my ethics as a person are broken. I didn't think it would be real if I couldn't even solve this place. But I had a tip."

"Is that a hint?

"It's a demon stone. Yes, I built the Demon Stone. If you just can't reproduce it by magic, you can create a demonic stone that" has the ability to fulfill what you want ". In your own body."

Whether the words I tell you were a shock, Raini covers his mouth with his hands. Ilia is breathtaking with rare eyes open.

I said it briefly, but I just think of it as an act where human ethics are clearly broken. Not to mention what I wanted is like immortality. To feed others for this is more of a monster than a human being.

"A body with an approaching death period cannot produce enough vitality. Then you can take it from others. Generate the demonic stones necessary for this purpose and take life from others via blood. That's how Bakemono, a prototype of vampire heritage, was born."

"... does that really exist"

"I was half-hearted until I saw Miss Raini. But there were speculations that it might be true. Because vampires are" born of people ”demons. Conversely, it does not occur naturally. 'Cause I was originally a“ human ”. Otherwise vampires will not be established. And I think it's like an infection for a vampire bite victim to be the same vampire."

If you can create a demonic stone, if it has the effect of degenerating people. And if you can increase that demon stone. If this is true. It also coincides with the legacy that the bitten person will be one of the vampires.

"I don't know if vampires are already moving on their own volition, or if they are being driven by demonic stone functions to operate.... Anyway, no matter how magically good you are at transcending people, there are limits on your own. So what do you think we should do? Miss Raini!"

"What!? What, um... I don't know"

"Then give me the answer. The answer is to increase the number. And he became a vampire. I guess this is what he thought. You can embed the same demon stone. That way we'll all be the same creature"

Miss Raini breathed. I guess it's because I imagined the sight. Even I would be frightened if I imagined it.

If you can embed the Demon Stone into your people, you can let the Demon Stone suck magic after that. If there is no ethic or nothing there that respects humanity, it can be done. In fact, I'm doing something similar, engraving...

"That's probably why vampires used to be recognized and crusaded as demons. But people are learning creatures. Vampires derived from people, of course, may have thought about it. If you can't make a stand and move, you should be dispersed in the darkness. Until one day the time comes."

And the vampire disappeared from the history of the table. But the vampire threat isn't gone. At the very least, it is possible that the story of Aga remained as a lesson so that people will not forget, and that time has changed its appearance.

That's just a guess. Because there is an overwhelming lack of material to fill that conjecture and reality.

"There have been no reports of vampire damage, or maybe they hunted it all down. Or are you lurking somewhere so you can't find it? I'm most afraid you don't know."

"... so, you know. Why did Princess Anisphere think I was a vampire?

"Because it matches the hallmark of vampire heritage, the ability that vampires are predicting to be gaining if my assumptions were correct. Strong charm, mental interference close to brainwashing. It takes more of our own kind, and it takes more of us to get confused with the world."

It is believed that what was attacked by vampires became vampires and that being one of them was due to the power of this brainwashing. And the fact that vampires still have a legacy of being beautiful enough to lure people into it makes me wonder if they're either transformed or fascinated.

"Leaving aside whether Miss Raini is actually a vampire or not... no, that's the problem, but the other problem is piling up..."

"... let's sort it out. First, Miss Raini said she was a half of an estimated vampire and a thoughtful demon.... Are you sure it's half?

"So, like the magical experiment where Miss Raini was implanted with demonic stones? I don't know about that, and it doesn't even look like they're implanting demon stones and causing mental anomalies. If it happened to be the idiosyncrasies that the Demon Stone would become in your body, wouldn't that be the subject of an autopsy?

"Or autopsy!?"

I don't think it's a possible case of autopsy, although it's bad for Miss Raini, who's bluishing her face. Anyway, I don't know any other examples. Even if the autopsy goes too far, there's a good chance they'll kill you.

"Whether Miss Raini is really a vampire or not, that's a problem, but it's not. The issue that must be given the utmost importance is the power of Miss Raini. He's fascinated without consciousness, and his effect is enough to captivate the children of powerful men, starting with the royal family?

"It doesn't taste good, no matter what you think. The country will be disrupted even if he wants it or doesn't want it. You can't let that happen."

Ilia shrugged frowning. Yes, there's actually confusion going on because of the people Miss Raini confused me with.

"And if Miss Raini was truly a vampire, the fact that the vampire lived to modern times is confirmed. It is possible that Miss Raini will be used in human experiments to explore countermeasures against vampires. Although noble, Baron, you are too weak to protect Miss Raini"

"The worst is the possibility that Miss Raini will be kidnapped and used."

"If you let it spill out of the country, you don't know what kind of trickery you can put on it."

The problem is piled up even if I count it by the fold.

One thing, Miss Raini's fascinating effect is that mental interference can overthrow the country.

Two, if the source of that power was a vampire, the reality of the vampire could be confirmed and Miss Raini could be used as a material for research.

Three, it would be very unpleasant if this information did not remain in the country and was known to another country and Miss Raini was taken away.

These three alone are going to give me a headache. In fact, there are other problems just raising things that are understandable and critical.

"It's the most dangerous thing that you can't control yourself."

"... Speaking of which, how does the princess take action?

"This is why I suspect Miss Raini is a vampire, but we rebel each other that Demon Stone doesn't really like the compatibility between demon stones"

"... Oh, is that why? Engraving, right?

"Yes, so I realized it was uncomfortable and I was able to resist."

My engraving is a melting of dragon demon stones to tame my body. As a function, it is no different from the Demon Stone. What's more, I'm under mental interference from the engraving that should be called a "curse”. That's why we realized that there was a rebellion between the demon stones that occurred.

True, I don't know what makes me fortunate in any way. This means that only heretic children like me can resist Miss Raini's indiscriminate charm.

"... I wonder if I'll have to take it away when this happens"

"... will it be"

First of all, you can't leave it alone. Although it is true that Miss Raini is dangerous, it is not that she had an affair with herself. Besides, she is also an interesting subject. If you examine Miss Raini, you may be able to apply it to my research in the future.

I don't get the impression that Miss Raini is the bad guy because I talked to Miss Raini again. She was just swayed by her own power. Yet you are unreasonably asked to die, your body is deceived, or you are flirted with the thoughts of your country. It's just such a harsh reality.

It doesn't feel too good to overlook. But protecting Miss Raini has a lot of headache issues rolling around.

"Ahhh, no. I can't handle it alone. If I take Miss Raini away, it will be an absolute problem. Al-kun, Al-kun's surroundings, the Ministry of Magic, they make absolutely loud noises!

"You'll definitely make a scene..."

I feel a headache in one problem after another. There's absolutely nothing I can do about this. Yeah, if you're in trouble, even the standing parents can use it!

"I'll honestly talk to your father and your mother. I need to hear from Baron Cyan, about Miss Raini's mother."

"It could have been a vampire," he said.

I don't have enough information to decide what I'm going to do. It's not a question of how I can do this on my own in the first place, so the only people I can use are my parents!

If you decide on a policy, give Ilia instructions and ask her to summon Father and Mother. Even if the fathers speak to each other in the stomach, we'll talk to them first. Now we should not have Miss Raini meet an unspecified number of people.

I was left in my room with Miss Raini while Ilia went to get my fathers. Miss Raini was shuddering to hold her own body in a hazy manner.

... I can't even do it. Even I get headaches all the time. Although I am aware that I am out of standard, Miss Raini is an ordinary child. I honestly don't think I can hold it.

Never mind. I hold Miss Raini's head in my arms. I stroke my back watching Miss Raini react, who made me jump like a surprise.

"It's okay, it's okay. I won't make it worse. I promise, because I'm still a princess. It is our duty to protect our country and our people. That's why I won't abandon you, Miss Raini."

No reply from Miss Raini. Just a quiet creaking voice and a hand stretched out to hang on grabbing my dress.

Ilia came into the room with her father and mother as she stroked her back to calm Miss Raini down. Though he rounded his eyes for a moment to see how we were doing, he immediately tightened his expression and turned back to me.

"Anis, I heard you were in a hurry. What happened? What happened?

"Father, please listen to me quietly."

I will tell my father and mother about Miss Raini as easily as possible. About Miss Raini's charm, about her suspicion of vampires, etc.

Father gets the look of bitter worms chewed up easily if he listens, and at the end of the day, he holds his forehead down. My mother also constantly emits sharp signs with a tight look.

"... unbelievable, such a story"

"But it's true. I'm still uncertain about the truth, but I don't mind clarification later. The question is how to deal with this situation. I think, given her power, it would be best for me to take it..."

"... if you take Miss Raini, Algardo won't shut up"

My father tells me to blur with a bitter running voice. It's really that, Father.

"That's right, my head hurts the most...... I'm not going to tell Miss Raini widely, and most importantly, I can't predict what will happen by telling Al Kun the truth, who is expected to be captivated. Yeah, if you're asking Miss Raini to hide, I'll work it out, but I disagree. She is also a people of this country."

"I know. But what's the matter..."

I've tried saying that if you dispose of Miss Raini far away, it will be resolved, but it seems reassuring that Father hasn't even considered the option of killing her. This is where the problem starts...

"... anise. You say you're responsible for the treatment of Miss Raini?

"Mother? Yeah, I'm proud that I'm the right person to deal with this problem."

"That disorder is Algard, isn't it?

"... yeah, well. You will."

"Now let Algardo accompany me and take me on an outing"

"Huh!?"

Does that mean I'm taking Al-kun outside, Mother?!? I turn my eyes round to Mother's sudden suggestion.

"I can put on as many reasons as I want. If you say I'll work out again based on this situation, you'll be able to hold back even if you disagree. Plus that kid needs a track record. That too, Anis, is a feat in line with your magic. If you line up that kid who couldn't make Uphilia your fiancée, there's only one advantage."

"Wow, Al-kun was truncated."

Al's rating for being a boy is too much. No, I deserve it, but I can't justify anything to a boulder, Al...

"Algardo, if I do something about it, let the rest of Miss Raini's captivated sons hold Orphans in responsibly."

"Um, that's the rest of your job. It's easy to move if you can't pick your hands to keep Algardo down, but Sylphine will take you out."

His father's reign is brilliant, but he's not pushing hard enough. I wish I could say a king who honors the good sum, but when I have a mother who is a female jewel at a time like this, the choice expands.

You think a power relationship is ideal because your father usually suppresses a mother with that harsh side, or a really good couple. While my parents.

"But it won't be long before we can keep Algard out. You won't have to make it prolonged for a reason, but it still is. Do you mind, Anis?"

"Yes, Mother"

"You should be committed to improving Miss Raini's health by then. If Miss Raini's current situation doesn't improve by the time Algardo returns, it will take me to hide it."

"Hey, Mother!?"

That means you're declaring that you're going to end it with your own hands!? Your father is giggling, and Ilaria is shaking your shoulders like he was scared for a moment!? If you're in Miss Raini, your face is going to turn bright blue and you're going to hide even though you didn't do anything!?

"If you don't reject the roots of the disaster, I will be responsible. We cannot all sink into mud, if it is a people to protect if it is to bring disaster to the country. Be prepared then. Miss Raini would be nice, too?

I mean it. My mother meant it, this. It's a serious responsibility......

"So who will you tell? People choose more than not to reveal everything, don't they?

"Mm-hmm. I guess I'll have to explain to Baron Cyan. Even if I put it under you, I can't make it public. It would be a good idea to leave the house for the sake of sanitary care and keep it in secret from you."

"Chief Sprout Knights said his son was in on the impeachment. He is also an associate. Let's get him involved, too. You need to pay attention to the Royal Palace security, right? You'll do something with me and Orphans."

I can't do the political rush around here, so I'll just have to leave it to you. My detachment is ideal for pulling cages, and unlimited access for people. It is the royal palace maid who has the possibility to come in and out, but many have a hard mouth. If you're out of the palace, it's a good idea to hide Miss Raini.

And I looked into Miss Raini to explore measures of her power. I was going to do something new, but it's not going to be easy because it's going to be a formal job. I'm just a little bit overwhelmed, but I can't even cry.

"Anis, it's going to be tough for you too... but do it right"

"Of course. This is the only interesting research subject. I feel responsible, but that's it! Because this is this!

"... that's really not what you do."

Ha, she sighed at my mother like she was frightened. Was I not able to draw any intentions from that...?

"Put Miss Raini in your outhouse and you'll have a big problem"

"Problem?"

"Who are you living off the palace with now?"

"Ah."

Right, now you have Uffi in the outhouse!?

Well, this is official work from the country, and it's urgent, so if you don't have a choice, you're going to have to swallow it, and you're going to live out of the house with Yufi and Miss Raini?

"I'm not talking about the level of awkwardness!?"

What am I going to do? Ho, how did this really happen?!?
