Episode.54 A flower that drinks blood and grows

It’s me, Han Si-woo. 21 years old.

He is an ordinary person found everywhere who is a hunter for a living.

All the hunter has to do is clear the gate and earn money.

Of course, I make a living by receiving money from the association.

Anyway, we are now having a wedding at a gate that should have been cleared and closed.

Not even a request, but a command.

I had no choice.

If you pick up a weapon and rebel on the spot, you will lose even a few lives.

Moreover, I have to stay here for a few days.

Even though the passage of time inside the Black Gate is slower than in the outside world, it is not good to stay in the Black Gate for a long time.

This is because if you fall into a place like a snowy mountain, it is difficult to take care of the three basic elements of human life: food, clothing, and shelter.

Clothes, food, and a place to stay.

This is because those two things are bound to be lacking.

A space to stay.

That space was provided to me by someone who was called ‘Lord’ by these vampires.

And they said they would provide food as well.

He said he would be there when I went to my room.

But you always have to be careful.

They are our enemies.

It doesn’t seem like a monster…

Anyway, there is no change in the fact that they are our enemies.

There could be poison in the food or a trap in the room, so letting your guard down is something you shouldn’t do.

We were guided to the door of the room where we would be staying by a maid who gave off a certain ominous aura.

Oh, by the way, Harin went in the opposite direction from me.

It’s a situation where I doubt whether ‘Road’ intentionally separated me and Harin.

But there was nothing I could do here.

Anyway, the beautiful maid guiding us seemed to be human just like us.

However, it didn’t look like we were at all.

long straight hair.

Her hair is light purple.

That mysterious appearance is like a character from the Middle Ages… there is something unique about it.

“I am Bethrice, one of the users in charge of you.”

“Trice? Please take care of yourselves in the future, Trice. Well, I don’t know how long I’ll be here.”

The maid, who introduced herself as Triche, bowed her head in response to my answer and politely opened the room door.

【…is it better than my house here?】

A large space, with a huge double bed placed in the center of the space.

‘What is that mosquito net on that bed?’

【Ooh, does that look like a mosquito net? Um, what is it… The beds of nobles in the Middle Ages all had decorations like that.】

I don’t know if it’s all like that, but it can’t be helped that it looks like a mosquito net.

“If you are eating in your room, someone other than me will come to visit. Until then, please rest comfortably.”

Triche folded her hands together politely.

Triche then left the room and closed the door.

【Hmm… Has it been a while since that maid was captured? He seems like a newbie who only learned the job a few days ago.】

‘Things like that happen, too. It’s like a natural law here. There’s no need for us to go out of our way to save them… If someone from our world is being held captive, let’s save them.’

We sat on the bed.

– Slurp.

Of course, Chaewon did not sit on the bed.

She’s floating in front of me now.

In that case, we shouldn’t have expressed ourselves.

However, the reason I expressed it as ‘we’ was because there was a young-looking guy who had been following me for a while.

black hair.

The body of a young child with red eyes.

This is the girl who was sitting on the same type of chair that was next to ‘Road’ earlier.

The seat clearly seemed to be his wife’s seat.

Where did Rod’s wife go?

Anyway, right now next to me was a young flower that was drinking blood and growing.

For safety’s sake, I decided to keep an eye on the girl in front of me.

‘The king’s insight, activated.’

– Tiring!

-Current Status-

My feelings toward you are such that I want to eat.

I’m thinking of a plan to use you.

==========

What kind of ‘Generate’ is a technology that everyone has?

Clearly, in the world outside the gate, that technique was powerful and rare enough to be called a forbidden technique, but is it a common technique within this gate?

Perhaps, clearly, what does the user use in ‘Generate’ for that technology? That must be an important skill.

It seemed like ‘Generate’ was just a medium.

It’s just my guess though.

And the blood absorption level is 99.

It seems to be capable of quite precise blood sucking.

By the way, ‘Theia’ is the goddess of light in Greek and Roman mythology, and this is a technique that is completely unsuitable for a nocturnal race that is mainly active at night.

My current state is… my emotions say I want to eat something, but I feel like I’m just hungry.

Are you thinking of a plan to use me? Is this a story about marriage that ‘Road’ is talking about?

That aside, you’re not telling me your name…?

Does not matter. You can just ask for the name, so it’s not difficult.

“Hey… what’s your name?”

He must have been waiting for me to say something, so he turned his head and looked straight at me.

To just marry such a young child… Rod is also quite crazy.

“What did you say?”

“Ah… what’s your name?”

“… How dare a human being… such a small creature speak informally to this body. This is something that cannot happen!”

【wow. You have a temper with subjects that make you look like a kindergartener.】

“Hey, kid.”

“Kko, kid? Do I look older than you?”

“How old are you?”

“Hmph, I’m probably at least hundreds of years older.”

“… Is it because all normal, ordinary vampires have an eternal lifespan? ”

“Look, you’re an ordinary vampire? This body is pure blood, true ancestor! Hey, Illya, don’t compare Violet to ordinary vampires!”

“Okay, nice to meet you, Lee.”

It’s really easy to find out the name of this cheeky little guy.

“Wow! Inadvertently say my name! How dare you try judo… Are you prepared to taste death?!”

“Ah, I should eat the food Trice prepared.”

【Is this the food you prepared? Quickly open the lid!】

“I mean, don’t ignore me!”

‘But aren’t vampires weak to ‘silver’? ‘Is it okay to use silverware like this?’

【I guess the vampires here have a hobby of harming themselves.】

It was a completely unhelpful answer.

I had no choice but to ask Illya directly.

“Hey, but as far as I know, I heard that vampires are weak to things like silver and garlic. Is it okay to use dishes like this?”

After hearing what I said, Illya gave me a funny look.

“Mi, you seem quite naive about the subject of small things. Isn’t it obvious that such a thing would be a fictional story from a children’s fairy tale? Those things are pure lies made up by humans.”

【Oh, really.】

I opened the lid covering the silver tray.

Inside was a piece of steak radiating heat.

Using the fork and knife on both sides of the silver tray, I carefully cut off the end and ate it with my fork.

【how is it? What does the steak you eat inside the gate, in the middle of the enemy’s base, taste like?】

‘It tastes delicious.’

【What does that taste like?】

I was worried that there might be poison in the food, so I immediately checked the buff window.

“How do you feel? This dish is prepared by chefs who have been strictly selected by this body.”

“It’s delicious as usual. It tastes like a 3-minute hamburger steak. Do you want to try it too?”

“What?! How ordinary! Nonsense! This body’s eyes are better than any other true ancestor!”

Illya was shaking, probably because my extremely ordinary reaction was shocking.

She came close to me with a determined look on her face.

“What, what is it?”

“Hmph, you are humiliating this body… I will take your virginity as punishment.”

It feels strange to hear a little kid like that say something like that.

“Suddenly, what kind of chastity?”

“Have you ever had your blood sucked by another vampire?”

“No, I have never been sucked by blood-”

– Pook.

“Ugh!…”

Illya jumped into my arms in an instant and sank her fangs, which were small for a vampire, into the artery in my neck.

It shows that this is not your first time trying to suck blood.

Bold.

fast.

– Chuuup.

But at first, gently, carefully, it sucks and steals my blood.

【W-what are you doing?! Kiss your neck?! Ugh… this bitch and that bitch, they’re just very horny bitches!】

– Jjuup, side.

Ilya is stealing my blood faster and faster.

– Squeeze.

When the neck area became hot, Illya stopped sucking blood halfway through.

I think he was concerned that my life might be in danger if I continued to suck blood.

Perhaps because the fangs that had been embedded in it were removed during the process, a little blood overflowed from the area where the blood was sucked.

Illya saw that and carefully licked the artery in my neck with her tongue to stop the bleeding.

“… I enjoyed it.”

Her eyes seemed to sparkle.

【huh? This girl, her body glows?】

Is it common sense in this world that a race that is weak to solar radiation emits light from its body?

There are a lot of things I don’t know yet.

Light flowed from Illya’s body.

In that light, Illya’s body began to grow.
