The Reincarnated Vampire Wants an Afternoon Nap

"... how does this happen"

"What's wrong, Aoba?

"No, it's nothing. You're right to go shopping, but someone familiar with geography follows you, so yeah, I'm not depressed. Even if he's not here."

Somehow Aoyagi is whining about bumps, but the shopping itself went well.

The town I stopped by is huge there, and I can translate the language. Aoyagi and I can have a conversation without any problems, and Mr. Fernote seems to understand the language of the empire to some extent.

"It's quite surprising that Mr. Fernot can speak the Empire."

"I can read the codes of hostile countries."

I feel casual, but Mr. Fernote's expression is serious.

Now she wears her robe deep into her eyes, hiding her two-colored eyes from her surroundings.

That would, of course, come from the body of a former kingdom knight. I know my face is famous and I know it's the source of confusion.

"In the first place, why are you asking about buyouts? You know how famous you are? Couldn't you have just given me the map?

"It's because I know I'm famous. Because that's not the only purpose of this buyout."

"Could it be information gathering, is it?

"... well, it's close to that. I don't mean it."

I cheek the skewer I bought at the stall, looking at Mr. Fernote, who was subtly cloudy with words.

Fresh fish skewers smelled good and tasted refreshing white. It's good to be careful with the built-in, and the aftertaste isn't tight. I'll buy you Kuzha and the others on your way home.

"... and Algiers. That's a lot of swallowing... when did you buy that stuff?"

"Ngu, is it? This was opened earlier before entering the alley...... it was delicious so I'll give it a souvenir later"

"... I think we were a little more nervous when we met, but you're used to traveling"

I leaned my neck against Mr. Fernote, who seemed happy.

"Ha. I'm not going to be that different myself."

"It's not a bad thing.... at least I think it's progress that I stopped sleeping naked"

"Huh!? What is it? Let me hear more about it!

"Uh, Aoba? I don't want to stand out as much as possible, so could you keep your voice down?

Somehow I urge Aoyagi, who heated up, to calm down, and Mr. Fernot walks away trying to avoid the crowd.

Naturally, we followed it, so we left the street loosely.

The footing is light because I store all that luggage in a bloodbox, and Aoyagi holds it together and in a twat when it comes to meat.

Feeling the gradual shortage of people, I questioned Mr. Fernote with the smallest possible voice.

"Um, how far are you going?

"... of the Republic, that hellish person told me"

"You're Mr. Akisame."

Mr. Akisame is a man belonging to the Yotsuba Congress, who runs the government of the Republic.

I was under the impression that he was always nicotine and had no grasp somewhere, but no loose ends.

The shark told Mr. Fernote something.

"... the Empire is overdoing it. It looks calm in the country, but taxes are heavy, conscripts are there, and there are constant wars. Few people are dissatisfied with the rough land. Now that we've turned the whole world against our enemies, it's not necessary."

"... I guess so"

"So we'll contact the rebels."

"Rebels..."

But not long ago, when I helped Terrier, that's the name I heard.

Mr. Fernote nods slowly, continuing his words.

"Yeah, I've been around for a long time. The scale wasn't that big... but if things get any worse so far, we'll have to make a stand and move. Anyway, the name will be exactly what the Empire's declaration of war eliminated."

"The first flower that gets broken by hand, so..."

"Yep.... look"

Further back in the alley, ahead that Mr. Fernote indicated not by his fingers, but by his gaze alone.

There were people there who looked obviously miserable. There were a bunch of skinny people who didn't know how to see it, who even had trouble eating it instead of worrying about who they were.

Old or young, it was indisputable and a poor place there.

"This town is still big, so the front streets are decent. But this way, if we get a little off the road..."

"There are orphans born of the weight of taxes, conscription and other hardships, and there are no homes."

Mr. Aoyagi waved as he sighed.

Shizuru, and Tsuta stretch out to the back of the alley. Though they trembled upon their shoulders, the next thing that happened, they did not flee.

A number of flowers bloom in stretched twats, which eventually bear fruit.

A lot of fruit came to fruition in front of those who did not have a home, as they did to speed up their growth.

"If your stomach doesn't swell, you won't even have room to love flowers. Take it."

Mr. Aoyagi's words echo, and people take the fruit in a nasty manner.

The alley, which smelled dusty and dirty, was wrapped in a sweet scent.

"... I don't want you to be too conspicuous."

"People are no longer people unless they are treated like people. I don't overlook that. This is my belief."

"... if that's all you need to say. Sorry, Aoba."

"No. Welcome, excuse me. Mr. Fernote."

"I don't mind. We're not following each other."

I thought it was going to be a fight, but Aoyagi and Fernote seemed to convince each other.

Waving gently at the residents in the alley who bow their heads deeply, Aoyagi walks out. I guess that means I'm not going to do more than I have to.

"Well, according to pre-purchased information, it's around here..."

"... for a long time, it's careless."

"Huh...!

It was just for a moment that I got stuck with a nasty word that licked my ear.

There wasn't as much time as blinking, and it came.

No footsteps, no signs, just a shadow that appeared abruptly, had already put his hands behind Aoyagi's neck,

"If you're gonna sniff around about this one, I want you to be a little more careful."

"Ku...... Aoba!?

"Whoa, don't move, huh? Better than you pull out your sword, no, sooner than your fingertips move, because I can take this woman's neck, right?

To the other person's words, solve the arrangement Mr. Fernote took.

The person who saw it laughed at Nimmari.

- Yes, I got him.

"Hey!?

In the next moment, I was moving.

Grab both hands of the opponent and pull them off Aoyagi.

If that means speed, I'm not losing either. What is it, the status that resides in this body is' Quickness Polar Swing '? Besides, the vampire's sense of smell didn't miss the smell of blood drifting in the alley.

The smell of stained returning blood that got old and creeped me out so I couldn't take it anymore. Even without sound, it was so intense to be able to sense existence.

And more importantly, the smell of them was something I knew.

"... Long time no see, Chrome"

"Ha...... va, vampire ooh!?

Once, a girl I met in a certain forest.

Chrome was looking at me with stunned eyes.
