by fnovelpiaAfter a short incident, Rian entered Kidan’s office at Kidan’s recommendation.
We had a calm conversation while being served tea prepared by the Vampire Lord himself.
“I was wondering if he was able to calmly block Jim’s attack with his sword, but he was the swordsman of rumors.”
“I didn’t know my existence was known even in the vampire world.”
“Just because a vampire is active does not necessarily mean that they are active only at night. There are some people who infiltrate human society during the day and become active.”
“Isn’t sunlight fatal to vampires?”
“In the case of mixed race people, there is a certain level of resistance, and unlike in the past, as civilization has developed, there have been more means to block light.”
As humanity progressed, the benefits also applied to other races.
Magic tools made to counter light magic became a favorite item of vampires to block sunlight and were useful.
Gone are the days when you couldn’t do anything during the day and had no choice but to sleep.
“Of course, you shouldn’t rely too much on magic tools.”
In the end, it was a modified version of a magic tool created by humans.
Although it is neutral now, if the moment comes in the future when there is a conflict with humans, there is a strong possibility that humans will take countermeasures against magic tools.
In a war, having to spend half a day helpless was a great loss, so other means had to be prepared if possible.
“Anyway, we vampires can be seen as quickly updating and listening to news coming out of the world.”
“Because information is more important than anything else.”
“If the news is delayed, you lose a lot of money.”
Two people nodding their heads in agreement.
They continued their conversation while quenching their thirst with tea.
“Now that I think about it, what is my relationship with a vampire named Rumi?”
“I am an acquaintance of an acquaintance. Ironically, it’s been a long time since I broke up with my acquaintance.”
“Hmm? But are you still helping Rumi?”
“The situation was very unfortunate, and personally, I wanted to experience a sense of crisis by fighting a vampire. Now it has become meaningless.”
“You were a crazy battle fanatic.”
Kidan laughs cheerfully and shakes his teacup.
He sipped his tea and carefully set the glass down.
Immediately after that, Kidan crossed his legs and leaned against the backrest.
“Phew… !”
“Do you have any concerns?”
“The movements of demons are unusual these days.”
“Are demons reaching out to vampires?”
“It sounds like you did some kind of trick to other races.”
“Have you ever heard of a major incident occurring in an orc village recently?”
“Ah, I know that news. It was revealed that it was an atrocity committed by demons.”
“That’s true. I was there at that scene.”
“I’m really jealous of that. Such experience is a licorice that will energize Jim who has to deal with frequent work.”
A stack of papers piled up in one corner of the office.
After seeing this, Rian laughed heartily and turned his head to pretend not to see.
Kidan, who worked hard to become a vampire lord, has been required to make constant efforts even after becoming a lord.
The stress caused by it must have been so great that his deviations now seemed trivial.
“Anyway, Jim heard that those demons were conspiring with a specific vampire. Given the circumstances, we as vampires may also end up playing into the hands of demons.”
“No matter what, you can’t do whatever you want without the Lord’s decision, right?”
“But what if some vampires cause harm to other races? Does Jim think they will accept him even if he goes to them and tells them it was a misunderstanding?”
“… … That’s definitely true.”
Relationships are relative.
Even if you don’t consider yourself an enemy, if the other person sees you as an enemy, it is inevitable that the relationship will become hostile.
For that reason, even if Kidan, the leader, did not wish for a war with humans, there was a good possibility that a war would break out due to the actions of some.
“If impure elements among your own people are the problem, wouldn’t it be better to get rid of them early so there won’t be any problems later?”
“Even if you throw them away like that, the demons will come back to their people again.”
“In other words, it’s meaningless if you don’t eliminate the demons that are the source, right?”
“That’s it.”
You must approach the vampires and defeat the demons who instill subversive ideas.
But it was easier said than done.
Not only was it difficult to find vampires who accepted the ideology of the demons, but it was even more difficult to uncover the demons hiding behind them.
That’s why Kidan was having a hard time.
“So, there is one thing I would like to ask of you… … .”
“It would be difficult if you asked me, a human and not a vampire, to find a demon.”
“Hmm, that was definitely an unreasonable request,”
Other races could not easily intervene in a critical situation that would determine the future of vampires.
In the case of the Orcs, the moderate faction tried to persuade them by presenting humans.
Since Rian didn’t come forward of his own accord, there wasn’t much of a problem, but the current situation was different.
If a human vampire were to be hunted down, he, a human, would have to take on a responsibility he did not want to take on.
There was no reason for Lian, a human, to shoulder the burden of another race.
“The story just now is a story that never happened from the beginning… … .”
“I cannot help you directly, but I can lend you some wisdom. If I just quietly cover up the fact that I had a conversation with the monarch here, there will be no problem.”
“By wisdom, do you mean how to hunt down demons?”
“Is there anything else?”
“None. Please lend me your wisdom.”
“Good. So first, let’s add a new schedule to the banquet!”
“Do you plan to guess who the traitor is when everyone is gathered?”
“There is nothing to reason about. Because they will come out voluntarily.”
Lian is smiling evilly and savoring black tea.
Kidan, wondering what his intentions were, was anxious and rubbing his chin.
***
After the minor accident passed, the banquet was back on track.
At one point, a group orgy took place, but no one spoke about it.
A confrontation between a vampire lord and a man that suddenly occurred during an orgy.
Most of the focus of the conversation was focused on that.
The level of the fight that was unimaginable was so amazing that the story had no choice but to come out.
‘joy! No matter how strong he is, the current monarch is a coward who doesn’t even have the courage to attack a human.’
As I had feared, there were some people at the banquet who decided to take the side of the demons.
They attended the banquet with the purpose of welcoming their compatriots to the same side.
However, due to a weak situation that occurred in the middle, it did not go as desired.
Just as I was about to carry out my plan, even if it was belated.
Suddenly, the banquet hall went dark and a single spotlight came on, illuminating a man standing in the center of the banquet hall.
“I would like to express my apologies to all the distinguished guests and ladies who attended the banquet. In a little while, a play hosted by the monarch will be held here. I would like to inform you once again that there will be a play hosted by the monarch here in a moment… … .”
“Suddenly a play… ?”
“It wasn’t planned, but doesn’t it somehow seem like fun?”
“You said the monarch planned it for our entertainment? Of course you have to see it!”
“Just when I was bored, it turned out great!”
The vampire, whose capture plan was once again interrupted, clicked his tongue, but decided not to be impatient.
There was still a lot of time left until the banquet ended, and even after that, there were many cases where close friends had separate gatherings.
Now that the opportunity to carry out his plan was plentiful, he decided to go see the play with the others.
‘It’s just a play, so I’ll definitely laugh at it after it’s over and say it’s insignificant.’
The fact that it was a play led by Kidan was causing antipathy.
A vampire who considers demons more important than the Lord.
He was truly an impure molecule who had been tainted by the ideology of the demon race.
“Then let’s start the play now! The title is ‘The Infidelity Hero and the Horny Demon King’!”
“What?”
Some vampires raised questions about the somewhat strange title.
However, the host neatly ignored their opinions and opened.
A play hastily created by Lord’s family.
There were many shortcomings in calling it a masterpiece, so the only thing that was outstanding was immersion.
A travel story about a warrior who punishes evil for his own self-interest, not for humanity.
He made people watching the play laugh with his outstanding wit and bold manners.
No one expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that the hero, who is said to be the demon’s natural enemy, was portrayed as a fool.
However, the problem started midway through when the stage changed to the Demon King’s Castle.
Some people were dissatisfied with the fact that the Demon King, who was supposed to welcome the hero, did not appear due to the fact that he was in heat.
Afterwards, the Demon King came out of the bedroom, but his expression was crumpled at the point where he was unable to use part of his abilities as his secret was discovered by the cheating hero.
Lastly, there was a highlight section where the Demon King was taken over by a penis named ‘Holy Sword’.
“Jim is the devil who will rule this world… !”
“What do you mean? Shut up and tighten it!”
“Hello! But holes are third-rate!”
After the extremely vulgar dialogue, several vampires stood up from watching the play.
Before their anger could spill out, a hand was placed on their shoulder.
“Mr. !”
“The play is in progress, so please follow me quietly.”
“Hang? What are you!”
“This is the spy arrest squad. There is a suspicion that you have been in contact with demons… … .”
“I came into contact with demons? Don’t catch people for no reason, get out of here!”
“Phew… ! All right. Then, if you just repeat what I say, I will apologize and move on.”
“Ha! There are so many different things! What is it?”
“Demon King, your mom is crazy.”
It was a fuss.
