“Advertisement… I want to try it. Sister.”

That was Suho’s conclusion.

Well, after hearing that answer, I felt complicated in many ways.

I’ll skip explaining why I felt that way, because it’ll hurt my mouth if I say it twice.

Anyway, since I’ve decided to do it.

It would be good to think about the positive side.

First of all, the topicality is certain. Unlike the last contract, the next contract is likely to bring in a lot of money.

And if this becomes a bigger success, you could really become a celebrity like the ones on TV or in movies.

To be honest, Suho’s visuals are so good that they surpass even the most ordinary idols, no, actors, so there’s no way he can’t do it.

… Well. I am pretty, but I have the curse of growing up, so I have the body of an elementary school student, so I am out of the question.

Anyway! Now that I had decided, it was time to think about which advertiser to choose.

Of course, we need to find a place that will sign a contract with both Suho and me.

Because I don’t plan on doing things that I want to do on my own.

“Suho. First of all, how many companies have offered you advertising?”

“Um… There are three places.”

“Three?”

It’s less than me, but isn’t three still quite a lot?

But where did it come from?

First of all, I don’t think it’s a children’s brand like mine… .

“I… First of all, I got ads for sneakers, carbonated drinks, and soy milk.”

“… What.”

What does that mean?

I get advertisements for toys, dolls, children’s clothing brands, children’s shoe brands, children’s beverage brands, learning materials brands, and baby stroller brands. Why do you get such adult and cool advertisements?

It’s your damned chubby body that’s the problem.

I gathered my thoughts, once again burning my resentment towards Jinjo.

Phew. By the way, Suho and I don’t have anything in common.

In this case, we will have to coordinate with the advertiser.

It’s become a hassle… .

I recited to Suho the advertisements I had received and let him know that there were no advertisements that we could do together right now.

The guardian guy seems surprised that I received so many offers, but well… it’s only natural that TS beauties have peerless beauty, so it’s actually a bit late for my face to be sold and become famous now!

“There is no overlap, so I guess I should talk to the company.”

“Yes, Sister. I think we should do that.”

“First, Suho. You contact your advertiser, I’ll contact mine.”

“Yes! I hope there is good news.”

After the discussion, Soojin said goodbye to the guy and left the hospital room.

The next destination was the Happy Orphanage where Ryu Se-hwa was.

On the way to Gapyeong, I made phone calls to companies that had offered me advertising and asked if I could work with Suho even if it meant cutting my share a little.

Most companies either said it was difficult or asked to meet for a more detailed discussion, but only two companies gave a positive response.

It was a prank company and a nutritional supplement company.

Okay, let’s keep these two for now.

Ryu Se-hwa was sitting on a swing bench in a sunny garden, sipping a glass elegantly.

The pure white coffee cup was not filled with bitter coffee, but with a bright red liquid, and it wasn’t tomato juice or wine.

It was blood…. More precisely, it was my blood.

Of all things, you’re drinking my blood on the day I visited.

Something feels off.

“Come on, Sky.”

“Hey… Why are you drinking my blood now?”

“There are times like that. Days when the desire to suck blood surges. Today is one of those days. But, you won’t let me drink the blood of the children here, right? So, I’ll have to drink your own blood.”

“… … That, that’s right.”

In the first place, I was the one who told you to drink my blood instead of the children’s blood… I don’t really have anything to say.

sniffling.

I tilted my glass again and saw her drinking my bright red blood. I shivered with horror at the sight.

Oh my… Even that woman. There’s a dark red scab on her lips.

“Oh my. Are you cold?”

“No… .”

“So? Why did I come here? Oh. Now that I think about it, you met my mother? How was it?”

“Uh… How did you know that I met Jinjo?”

In response to my question, she smiled strangely, or more precisely, smiled as if there was something hidden in her smile, and nudged me.

This guy. What kind of plot is he plotting? Why are you laughing so grumpily?

“Of course I knew. I knew your mother was there, so I sent you there.”

“… … .”

Oh, so. The reason I was able to obtain the dinosaur cactus thorns quickly, and the reason I paid for all the travel expenses to Norway, was all to meet Jinjo at the right time?

hmm….

Well, to be honest, I wasn’t particularly upset or anything because I found out her hidden intentions.

I was still just grateful, but when you smiled so meanly… I felt bad.

“Don’t laugh. Tsk.”

“Haha. Our youngest is so cute it’s crazy.”

“It’s not cute.”

“Yeah yeah~ Isn’t it cute~”

This also doesn’t feel very good.

“No. I’m cute.”

“Oh my. Are you having your period? Then, would you give me your blood? I’ll drink that too.”

“shi, be quiet! What are you talking about, it’s so embarrassing! ”

All vampires are insane!

…except for our Suho and me!

“Anyway, why did our youngest come all the way here~?”

“I have some questions, and I’m thinking about learning blood magic seriously.”

“Are you talking about blood magic?”

There’s no harm in learning it. Also, I felt deeply sorry for my lack of strength during the Baekdu Mountain incident… And after meeting Jinjo, I became a little more curious about the vampire race.

“Yes. Can you teach me?”

“I’d like to say, “What kind of magic have you entrusted to me?” But our cute youngest is finally interested in vampires, so of course it’s possible, right?”

“Ahahaha… .”

“By the way, what are you curious about?”

“Uh… I went to that Jinjo’s territory, and I met a strange person there.”

“Strange person?”

“Yes. I think he’s a vampire, but… his growth and development were amazing, and when I asked the real king, he said he wasn’t a vampire.”

“… Aha. I know who you’re talking about.”

“Who are you?”

“A lineage that my mother took blood from. Should I say that they were my sisters?”

“Aha… .”

It’s more or less as expected.

A person who gave up the power of the monster because he could not endure eternal life… .

But why? You gave up the life of a monster, and now you’re stuck in that castle, killing time?

Wouldn’t it be better to come out and enjoy your last years of retirement?

I asked this question to Ryu Se-hwa, and she gently stroked my head and answered.

“Already, a person from long ago. If you come out, there is nothing to welcome you. Isolated from the flow of time, if a person who lived forever is given time to flow again, can he live a life like others?”

“Hmm… . That’s right.”

“Yeah. Rather, if you stay in that castle. Sometimes, you can see the faces of your old sisters who come to the castle. How nice would that be?”

“I understand.”

“In that sense, you are blessed, heaven.”

“Yes? Why?”

“Why? The person you like, and the person who likes you, is a vampire of the same species as us. At least you won’t send the person you love away first, right?”

“This, this… . I, when did I say I liked Suho!”

“Oh my. I never said Suho?”

“… … .”

I got hurt.

This is like a snake.

“Anyway, nice to meet you~ You two look good together.”

“Well… , I will do that.”

“But Suho is my subordinate. Then, does that mean I’ll be your older sister and mother-in-law~?”

“Huh? That, that kind of… Is that how it’s supposed to be?”

“Have you forgotten that I call our queen mother? Normally, the family treats their master like a parent.”

“That, that kind of… .”

Suddenly, I feel like I need to review my relationship with Suho from the beginning…

I don’t know about Hinamori-san, but Ryu Se-hwa is my mother-in-law? I’m already afraid of how much that annoying person will tease me.

“Please take good care of my daughter-in-law~?”

“Tsk… . Be careful what you say… .”

“Should I call her Unnie~ Or would you rather call her future mother-in-law?”

In response to her repeated provocations, I had no choice but to resort to the art of covering my ears.

Anyway, after that, I learned blood magic from Ryu Se-hwa.

After entering Jinjo’s territory, perhaps because my power as a vampire had been properly awakened, I could see that blood magic was skillfully unfolding in my hands in a way that was clearly different from before.

Even when looking at the range, power, and various conditions, my previous blood magic and my current blood magic were on a completely different level.

It was said that he could control a living bull with just a single drop of his blood, and that he could even drain it of all its blood and kill it (although he didn’t actually do it!).

At first, she was skeptical, but she smiled brightly at my improved blood magic talent and sense, and she taught me blood magic with such passion that I could feel it.

Well, looking at it this way, he seems like a pretty good person.

Except for the occasional teasing.

In some ways, isn’t my personality somewhat similar to that of my teacher, Eugene?

Why do I only get involved with these types of women? Interesting.

Phew!!

I strengthened my body with 5ml of blood drawn from my finger, jumped 10m with a sergeant jump, and felt the cool wind flowing through my hair, and I thought.

If I keep doing this, won’t I become incredibly strong like Hinamori?
