The Reincarnated Vampire Wants an Afternoon Nap

"... you're tired of the view"

Kuh, and I open my mouth wide, and I stretch out toward the sky.

In tears distorted vision are two colors: blue and white. It's the color of the sea, the sky, and the clouds.

At the front of the ship, called the bow, I was staring out at the sea.

"The Devil's Land is far away."

The Devil's Continent, which is where we aim, is still invisible, with a horizon lying far ahead of us.

I don't know the exact speed, but due to the rough sea, the ship speed on the Pisces is slower than I thought. The name Pisces is a lie.

In fact, as a merchant ship, it seemed to be an old one to be disposed of, and although it is fortified by a blood contract, it is not surprising that there is a rattle coming.

I just hope it doesn't break because I just don't know how to fix the ship.

... worst of all, if this ship breaks, I'll have to do something about it.

You think you're going to give up some baggage, build chains in Blood Arms, hang them all, bat them and fly?

It's not a pain in the ass just to think about it, but let's think about it so that everyone can survive even in the worst of circumstances.

"Algiers......"

"Ah, Mr. Fernote. Are you all right, sir?

"Hey, I don't know... but I don't have the magic to heal myself anymore..."

Odd-eyed boob knights came, looking very unlikely to be in book shape. No, an ex-knight.

Mr. Fernote is obviously unwell, but he still tries to drag his own body and comes to me next door.

"Ugh, the wind feels good..."

Apparently, it came in the wind.

That would be a good thing if you could move out of the cabin, and it would make you feel better.

Leaving him alone, Mr. Fernote rolled to the floor beckoning.

Where does the usual atmosphere go? I'm totally weak.

"Ha... how long will it last, this situation... when I was on the boat before, it wasn't so bad..."

"Xeno-kun, this time of year seems rough, so maybe it will stay like this forever...... yes, cheer up"

It will expire soon, but I think I will keep it for as long as a distraction, exercising restorative magic.

Focusing on me, the wind-like spreads and spreads to encompass the whole ship.

Recovery magic wave. It slowly encloses the whole ship and heals not just Mr. Fernote, but perhaps Mr. Zeno-kun and Mr. Richelle and the Neguseaux who are in the cabin. It's like next time, but it'll help us all somewhat. Mr. Fernote can also save one healing magic overlay.

"What do you say, Mr. Fernote? Is it easier?

"Yeah, pretty much... but it was good, Algiers. The magic is consumed..."

"You'll recover soon, and sometimes you'll be fine."

"... then let me be honest and sweet"

How tight it is, and Mr. Fernote honestly bows his head here.

... That's a lot coming.

Regardless of whether you are strong or weak on the ship, I wonder if this would be intolerable if you were not also in the main position.

Sometimes a larger wave hits me steadily, and a splash of waves hits my face. My vision is shaken up, down, left, right, and if I'm not seated honestly, it's troublesome to walk.

"Algiers seems fine..."

"Right. Vampires may be strong around them"

In my previous life, I would be just as drunk if I rocked this far, so isn't this the trait of a species called vampires?

Either way, it's a good thing you don't feel bad. Let's thank Lorijii, the reincarnation officer, for recommending vampires when reincarnating.

"I think this situation will continue for a few more days, so I think you should be prepared"

"Sorry, I can't help you..."

"No, I don't have that much to do either, because you take it personally anyway. Slow down until you get back to land... I don't think you're going, but rest."

If we go back to land, Mr. Fernote will be able to move as usual.

He worked so well so far that sometimes this can happen.

I'm a troublesome, unmotivated, no-good human being, a no-good vampire, but I want to be somewhat helpful when I'm tired of people I usually take care of.

I'm in the mood for relying on nothing but people to feed me, so let's just say it's the right opportunity.

With that in mind, I started looking at the sea again. It's troublesome to go back to the cabin in the shake, and even once you take a nap like this...

"Huh?"

Nature and language abounded because of the sudden change of scenery that was irreplaceable.

Though rough, the sight in front of me, which could be described as sunny, darkens while I blink.

Its darkness was not caused by clouds, but by what originated from the sea.

"Fog...... like this, all of a sudden?

Even while Mr. Fernote is spilling the question mark, his vision is covered in fog.

In just a few minutes, the fog enveloped the perimeter so thick that even looking back I couldn't see the mast of the Pisces.

"... a lot, you stab me in the skin"

The fog, which covers the area and leans on us and deprives us of vision, quickly touches the skin.

The mist generated in the sea is certainly a phenomenon in which warm, damp air is cooled with the cold water of the sea and the water vapour in the air is visible as a droplet.

I mean, it's not strange to feel cold when you touch your skin. I don't, but the feeling I'm feeling right now clearly wasn't the cold on my skin.

Perhaps the same goes for Mr. Fernote. He softly narrows his two-colored eyes and looks clearly alert, looking around where the fog can stand.

"Algiers, there's something wrong with this fog."

"Is this... magic...?

I've tasted it many times since I was reincarnated into another world, the feeling that magic is directed at me. That's what I'm feeling.

There is danger in the sea as well. That's what I saw in the port town of Arlesha. There are swords and magic in this other world as a matter of course, which means that it is all that dangerous.

There was a certain change as I looked around, clearing my nerves without alarm, even though I was troubled.

"Something... Coming?

There's a shadow on the bow side, across the fog.

The shadow is slowly approaching us, and it's getting darker.

"... what?

The moment Mr. Fernote shrugged.

My feet rocked wide.

"Hih......!?

That wasn't as shaky as it was when it hit a big wave.

Sounds like it hit something with a loud, clear mass, not water.

"I rode up in the shallow water......!?

"Oh... no, Algiers!

"Huh!?

"Something - there's something down there!!!

The moment Mr. Fernote's scream sounded, the Pisces gave a groan and stopped the movement altogether.

Attempts to manipulate by blood contract do not move. Obviously something is preventing the ship from moving.

"Hey, is this...!?

"Don't rush. You're in the realm of wrinkles, so let's loosen up?

"Who!? Show yourself......!

Mr. Fernote flies a sharp voice against the voice of a woman who has suddenly sounded.

Just like Mr. Fernote, who pulled the sword down on his back and went into a complete battle position, I can do whatever happens to me.

Worst of all, we have to give up the Pisces, but we have to cut through. This is still a crossing point.

I just can't say for sure that the person I've spoken to is a complete enemy at the moment.

The fact that you've been talking to me means that you intend to communicate with them.

It's definitely the other guy who's blocking the Pisces' movement, but he's not here to crush it without question, which means there's room to discuss it.

I spoke slowly to the shadow, perhaps the Lord of the Voice.

"... who are you, you are"

"Huh? Wow, you know what I mean? I don't know... well, actually, you know what I mean. Welcome, Guest. Come on, let's take you to the frozen realm."

"Guidance... Is it a mistake to abduct or something?

"Ho ho. I would say so...... so can we crush it here eh? From what I've seen, there seems to be some life on board?

and the hull makes an unpleasant noise.

Apparently, he's not the one who clearly has to fight, but it doesn't mean he's friendly.

"... Mr. Fernote, what do you say?

"... I don't know who I am, and if I get thrown out into the ocean right now, I'm going to fight an aggressive opponent who's going to destroy my ship in a difficult environment to move. And I'm not proud of you, but I'm magically empty."

"You don't seem to have a choice."

There are Kuzha-chans on board. You can't move around in a detour and put everyone in danger.

I don't know who you are, but I'm sure there's something I can do to guide you. Then safety is guaranteed in the meantime.

"… Now, please guide me"

"Kufu. That's a good answer. Okay, just wait a little while... hold me in my arms."

The moment the words sounded, the Pisces was wrapped in giant bubbles.

"The magic of water...... and so far so massive!?

"You guys can't breathe in the water. My territory is beneath the sea. That's why it's impossible to get there without protecting them."

"... you, what the hell"

"Wrinkles are called the Sea Demons. It's not called a fisherman. Let the name be when we meet."

Even as we speak, the Pisces slowly sinks into the sea. Apparently, they're taking us to the bottom of the ocean, just like this.

The realm of the Sea Demons. I wonder where it is. What business do you have in the first place and call us?

Cyril's vault was Zeno-kun's errand, and it was a cause for me.

However, this development is a complete irregular. It's an unplanned stop.

Besides, it's the bottom of the ocean that's taken. The magic that protects us in one of their moods is lifted - and I don't even have to think about what happens when that happens.

"... you've got a problem"

While I'm saying it, my vision slowly drags me to the bottom of the water.

At the very least, I hope their errands aren't a bit troublesome.
