“Huh? Answer me. Off topic, Mr. Friendly Vampire. Oh, no. Should I call you Ms. Witch?”

I sense a strange hostility from her.

No. But underlying it all was a ferocious interest and concern.

I had a feeling that her age might be considerably older than it appears in that part.

She lifted her chin as if to convince herself, and her determination and firmness were evident.

A human nature that has hardened over a long period of time with accumulated ego and self, like an old tree that is susceptible to criticism from others and the world.

Before arguing with her, I thought back to Ryu Se-hwa’s words and collected my thoughts.

To be honest, Mother Superior Ryu Se-hwa’s words may have been cold, but they weren’t that wrong.

She founded the orphanage out of a need for a stable and smooth blood supply, otherwise she would not have built this building in the first place.

Perhaps, I, a visitor passing by, talking out of touch with reality without even thinking about the plight of the children who will live there in the future, might seem like a hypocrite to her.

As my heated mind cooled down, I regained some sense of reason.

I asked her calmly.

“I have a question.”

“What is it?”

“Why don’t you use your blood?”

“My blood?”

“Yes. Anyway, you have blood too. Can’t you use magic with your blood?”

“Well… isn’t my blood a waste? You can’t use my precious blood for just anything.”

“Haha… .”

As expected, the worst answer came out of her mouth.

“Why? Are you disappointed? Is there a deeper meaning behind your wish?”

“No. It was exactly as I expected, so I wasn’t particularly disappointed.”

“I see. So what do we do now? Let’s start the blood oath and talk about witches again?”

“I have one more question.”

“Say it.”

“You said I was an elder.”

“Yeah. That’s right. You’re my sister.”

“If I give you blood, will you stop taking blood from children?”

“What?”

“That’s exactly what it says.”

“… … .”

I thought about it carefully.

Am I being too nosy?

Why would I need to go to the extent of building up hostility towards her and working for children whose faces I don’t even know?

Just a heart of compassion that feels sorry. It is right to step back at that level. I can’t help all the underprivileged children in this world, right?

I’ve thought about that too.

But what can I do?

I’m already starting to get nervous.

Maybe it was that bratty brat’s foolish antics that resonated with me.

It is said that from the moment humans begin to communicate with each other as humans, they begin to recognize each other and feel emotions as humans.

In that sense, my emotional conversation with that kid may have been poisonous to me.

“I don’t understand. I just saw you guys today. I don’t know why you’re acting like that.”

“That’s right.”

Because even I think I’m stupid.

“Whatever, fine. The blood of Elder, my sister, is much more valuable and useful than the blood of mere humans… . Yes, I will do so. However, you must sign the contract as well. Come to me periodically and provide blood. ”

“Yes. Ah. Of course, you shouldn’t take it to the extent that it interferes with your daily life. You said my blood is precious, right? There must be something worth that much, right?”

“Okay. I think I’ve compromised a lot if I drink 100ml every three months.”

“… Right.”

They say you can donate blood at most once every two months… .

That would be okay. The amount of blood drawn would be much greater for blood donation.

Not a bad deal.

I nodded my head in response.

The director of the daycare center, Ryu Se-hwa, smiled at my positive response, clapped her hands, and sorted out the situation.

“It seems like a mutually satisfactory deal. Hehe. Is this your first deal with a witch? Is it okay? By the way, I will also add a promise not to harm your master. Oh, as long as she doesn’t attack me, of course.”

“Yes, let’s do that.”

After she had finished organizing the contents of the contract, she gathered them all together and began to cast the Blood Oath magic.

More precisely, it is called blood magic.

She opened the syringe containing Duho’s blood and poured it into a transparent glass cup. Using it as a material, she created a bloody magic that gave off a gloomy and gloomy atmosphere.

No, it wasn’t magic, it was mystery.

A mystery at the cost of blood.

When you think about the witches using herbs, minerals, bones, and other materials to perform their magic, it can’t help but be quite creepy.

Pfft!!

As the blood magic intensified and reached its peak, a bright red light emitted from the boiling blood.

She raised her pure white fingers and began to freely control the blood, as if she were a conductor conducting an orchestra.

The mysterious blood shot into each of her and my heart.

There was no pain.

However, all I could feel was a warm and hazy feeling.

With this, the blood oath was fulfilled.

Surprisingly, she was worried about me,

“Aren’t you sick?”

“Yes. It doesn’t hurt.”

“This is proof that you are an Elder. If you are not on equal footing, it will be a great burden to your blood magic opponent.”

“Oh, is that so?”

“No? How could that be? I’m joking. Are you interested in blood magic? If so, I can teach you as your older sister~?”

“What can blood magic do? Maybe!”

“By any chance?”

“Your chest gets bigger… or you get taller…. Is that possible?”

… Honestly, I don’t think it will work.

Because, this woman was also quite short. She was wearing high heels, so she looked bigger. Her breasts were… not much different from mine. No, maybe a little bigger than mine?

Because the clothes feel a little puffy.

Well, no matter what, she is a woman who is bigger than me in many ways… .

“… Chest and height??”

“Yes.”

“Do you think I can be that?”

Her voice is shaking.

By any chance… are you of the same species as me?

Are you the kind of colleague who feels wronged because you’re a pretty girl with a farmhouse feel?

She had always felt bad for him, but this time, she felt a sense of sympathy.

“I’m sorry.”

“… Yeah.”

Are all vampires idiots?

Suho was a pretty boy, but when you think about it, he was on the small side compared to other guys his age.

What kind of cursed creature is this!

“Well… . It has many useful points. Because it is the power to control blood. I guess it depends on how you think about it. But if I had to pick the most representative one, it would be the art of domination that makes you a servant.”

“I see.”

Well… I don’t feel particularly interested right now.

Of course, there is no harm in learning it.

Given that woman’s personality, she’ll definitely demand a price, but I don’t think it’s necessary to learn blood magic while going through all that trouble.

dripping.

That was when.

There was a knock on the door.

“Hey, is there a sky there?”

It was Winter Sister’s voice.

It looks like he came to find me himself because I hadn’t been back for so long.

Ryu Se-hwa, the director of the daycare center, shrugged her shoulders and whispered to me,

‘Go ahead.’

“Ah, yes! I’ll go out. Sister!”

As I opened the door and went out, she looked me over with a worried expression.

Perhaps he was worried that he would be taken advantage of by that sinister woman.

“Nothing happened.”

“Yeah. Okay. Then let’s go back.”

“Then, goodbye. Sky.”

Ryu Se-hwa, the director of the daycare center, came up to me at some point, lightly patted my back, and then left.

In the end, I’ve achieved half of what I came here for.

Because I was planning to find the person who turned Suho into a vampire.

And we actually found the culprit… .

Now all that remains is to find out if she is a danger to Suho… .

Considering her personality, it seems like she would not harm the humans she has taken as her subordinates.

Still…, we need to talk about this.

‘Let’s give up on offering that woman to a crazy priest.’

I don’t think I can beat her right now… .

Of course, it might be possible if we borrow Sister Winter’s power, but then the children at that orphanage would be a problem.

“Hey. Sky. What’s that on your back?”

“Huh? What is it?”

What Winter Unnie took off her back was a business card.

A business card with the number of the director of Happy Daycare Center on it.

Maybe you want me to contact you this way?

“What the hell. This woman. Why did you give me your business card?”

“Well, I guess you mean regular support?”

“Huh. To someone with such rude manners?”

“Hahaha… . I’m saying this to the kids. What.”

“The sky is so kind that it’s a problem.”

“Is that so?”

“Anyway, what are we going to do now, Sky? You came here to find the monster, right?”

“There’s nothing we can do. There are no clues, and it’s a waste of time to wander around here, so let’s go back.”

“Yeah. I thought that was better too.”

“Yes. Thank you for your help.”

“Huh-huh. What? You’re my assistant? Ah. Starting next week, you’ll probably be coming to my office. Let’s get to work for real.”

“Yes.”

That’s how I broke up with Sister Winter.

And before returning to the workshop, I stopped by Seoul for a moment to meet the Yeon siblings.

It was to talk about Ryu Se-hwa.

And the next day, I received an emergency call from Sister Winter.

A first-class monster.

It was because the happy virus hit this Korean peninsula.
