After teaching the pig a lesson, he ran away with his tail between his legs.
He was probably telling on them to Isaac.
But Isaac wouldn’t do anything.
He could have killed the pig, but…
Why stain my sword with such filth?
So he decided to let him live.
After that, they loitered around until evening.
They had moved a long way, and he was tired. It was also when vampires were active.
Once night fell and the city lights were out, Luke and Luna left the estate.
“So, the disappearances are caused by vampires?”
“Yup.”
Vampires. The disappearances in the Count’s territory were all their doing.
In this world, they were treated as monsters, like goblins or War Wolves.
But they could speak and think.
They appeared earlier in the plot because of their difference in strength to other monsters.
In other novels, vampires were powerful, but there were even stronger monsters here.
Even C-rank monsters were stronger than them.
“Why are they doing this?”
“Why do monsters do anything?”
They had a reason. They thought they were superior to humans and wanted to take over.
He didn’t remember the details.
Why should I? They’re all going to die.
“How do you know all this…?”
“I read it in a novel.”
“…If you don’t want to tell me, just say it.”
“It’s the truth.”
Sigh.
That’s what happened when the favorability wasn’t high enough.
If her favorability was at 100, she’d believe he could poop gold.
Who would believe that they lived in a novel and he came from another world?
They always had a rule that they couldn’t reveal their status as a reincarnator, but he didn’t see the point. Nobody would believe them anyway.
“Are we going the right way, Luke?”
“Where are we?”
“…”
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
“Soon. It will be done in a few days.”
“You’ll be punished…”
“Keep yapping. When you awaken, we will go to the nearest city, kill all the humans, and make it ours.”
It wouldn’t be long now.
Was there really no salvation for her?
The man approached her.
“You’re a fool. Born with the destiny to be queen, yet you reject your people and despise the blood.”
“I didn’t… want this…”
If vampires didn’t drink blood, their bloodlust would grow.
But she, the queen, didn’t feel that bloodlust.
It was all empty words.
Like the queen of ants or bees.
She was a coward.
She knew that their efforts were meaningless.
The world was full of powerful humans and monsters.
Even if they conquered the nearby city, they’d lose it soon.
She knew her fate was death. It was foolish to cling to hope.
She closed her eyes.
“Finally obedient.”
Then…
*Click!*
A vampire burst into the room.
“We’re under attack! The mansion is on fire!”
“…”
“…”
Both the woman and the man looked confused.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
They had been wandering in the forest for thirty minutes.
He had found the destination.
“If only I knew the way…”
“Hey, everyone gets lost.”
If he could find a random mansion in the forest by just reading a sentence about a “forest mansion”, he wouldn’t be human but god.
He had been lost, but he found it.
The suspicious forest mansion, clearly the vampire’s secret lair.
“Luke, there’s someone over there.”
“We’re here, alright.”
There was a vampire carrying a sack.
He was heading toward the front of the mansion.
He was probably taking a kidnapped human to the Queen.
He decided to try something out.
An eye for an eye.
Kidnapping for…?
“Kidnapping.”
He sneaked up behind the vampire.
“A.S.M.Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr~”
The vampire, startled by the strange ASMR, turned around.
It was too late.
He didn’t knock him out, he just grabbed him by his hair and dragged him away.
Hair was surprisingly weak. They couldn’t resist when grabbed by their hair.
“Luna, I got one. Prepare it.”
“Can’t you just kill them…?”
“It’s interesting.”
He wondered what it was like for vampires to be sucked dry for once.
He had to invite Mr. Mosquito for the occasion.
About a hundred mosquitoes.
They had been a nuisance when he walked through the forest.
He had captured all of them.
“Here. Eat well.”
“Wh-what are you doing?! Stop it! Stop!”
“Silence Punch!”
Thud!
A silence punch.
Like the debuff that prevents mages from using spells in some RPG games.
He prevented the vampire from talking, and from biting.
“Good boys. Eat well.”
The sight of them eating was very satisfying.
He wondered if vampire blood tasted good. If vampires drank human blood, this was basically human blood.
“How is it? How does it feel to be sucked dry?”
The mosquito bites wouldn’t kill the vampire.
Unless he was covered in them.
“Ble… ugh…”
“Ah. Silence magic.”
A simple spell. He just needed to seal his lips.
Unfortunately, there was no way to undo it.
“What do we do now…”
There were other ways to communicate.
Like writing.
“We can use a pen and paper!”
“We don’t have a pen or paper.”
“Luna, there is something called a dying message.”
A dying message was a message left behind by a murder victim, written in their own blood.
This vampire was still alive, but he was going to die soon.
“Luna, cut off his finger.”
“If we’re going to write, we don’t need to cut it…”
“It’s better to have too much ink than too little.”
“You’re making me do so much today. Usually, you do it yourself.”
“You want me to use my greatsword to do such a delicate job like cutting a finger? I might as well cut off his arm.”
Luna sliced off the tip of his index finger.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”
Blood flowed freely.
“Okay! Write your thoughts!”
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”
This was annoying.
They were always so composed when they were killing, why did they cry so much when it happened to them?
He drew his sword and chopped off his head.
[ Level Up! Check your status! ]
“Let’s go. I’m getting annoyed.”
“I’ll prepare everything before we enter.”
“What? Why enter?”
He had always been curious. Why did people choose to go into the obviously dangerous place in movies and novels?
There’s a rumor that the mansion is haunted! They’d say, before going in to get killed.
If it looks suspicious, just don’t go.
“Luna. Catch.”
“This is…”
“We’ll make them come to us.”
He tossed her a jar of oil.
They didn’t have any hostages, and even if they did, they should save themselves.
“Let’s start a campfire.”
“You’re doing it already…?”
She finally said that line. She was learning fast.
He had to say his line.
“Deluxe☆Bomber~”
