Episode 238 – The Devil Who Drinks Blood 6 –

“Uh, sister… She’s really my brother’s girlfriend… ?”

Irene’s voice vibrates loudly.

This meant that even though I knew the truth, it was difficult to accept it.

But nevertheless, because the revealed facts were clear.

Irene asked back.

“That’s right. haha. Are you surprised?”

“Oh, no… My brother has never had a girlfriend before… ?”

“What does that mean? Everyone has a time before they start dating. Our parents had never had a lover before we were born.

There may be people who are single their entire lives, but there is no one who has never been single.”

“Ha, but we weren’t dating even when that very pretty girl confessed to me at the time… ?”

“Wasn’t that almost 6 years ago? Do you remember that?”

Maybe it’s because I’m still young.

I have memories from when I was 3 years old.

I don’t think I spoke fluently at that time.

Was it good?

I don’t remember much from 6 years ago either.

“So what should we do? You seem very shocked?”

Irene was even more shocked to see me using an honorific title toward Alice.

Alice was still holding my body.

She answered me straight away.

“Isn’t it cute? Hehehe. When I look at it, the world is looking at me and telling me to leave. Isn’t it strange for a child to protect his guardian?”

Originally, kids were like this.

If they think their guardian is leaving them, they tend to hold on to them.

In the case of Irene and I, there is a huge age difference.

Irene recognized me as her de facto guardian.

Like my brother, I haven’t had a lover since the beginning of my memories, so I guess I feel that way even more.

In the case of my sister-in-law, Irene and I have a good relationship, perhaps because she was there from the beginning, so she sees me as another guardian.

‘My case is a little different.’

It’s easy to think of your parents remarrying someone else.

It’s a very moderate and common situation that can’t be compared to that.

It won’t be that much different for Irene.

“Still… If you like your brother… ”

Fortunately, Irene prioritized my happiness over her own feelings.

Of course, it doesn’t mean much.

Just because I don’t like it doesn’t mean I can do anything about it.

I don’t know what Alice would do if we broke up for that reason in the first place.

“Mr. Alice! I have to make you happy!”

and.

What are you going to do if you find out later that you are the princess?

No, if your brother introduced you to your girlfriend in the first place, you should first ask about her family name.

I don’t even know my last name yet.

Is it because I was young?

“I will do that. You can be sure of that much.”

Alice was cute even though she seemed rude at first glance.

I looked at Irene with a bright, warm smile.

Irene does not know Alice’s identity.

Looking at what you’ve done now, I don’t know what will happen when you find out the truth.

What is that? I think it would be okay to tell you later after we become friends.

Alice also seems to find Irene cute. There’s no need to rush.

“Now, time is running out. Let’s go.”

There are now less than 40 minutes left until the entrance ceremony begins.

Considering the distance, there must be about 25 minutes left.

It’s time to leave soon.

“Hehe. That’s right.”

“Irene? Did you enjoy it? Now it’s time to go.”

The father and mother reacted differently than before.

Even though Irene showed Alice something that could be considered rude.

It was like looking at something cute.

Perhaps to compensate for the reaction, it appears that Alice sent a message that she was okay.

The way he immediately accepts the feedback I gave him.

It was nice to see.

So the eight of us went to the place where the new student entrance ceremony took place.

I headed to the auditorium.

===========

In the case of a new student entrance ceremony, there is no need for existing students to attend.

In fact, that is why there are so many students who do not participate.

But let me say it the other way around. This means that there are many cadets participating.

Mostly to make friends with new people.

Or, if a family member is a new student.

“So usually the royal family and high-ranking nobles participate to a large extent.”

“Then you’re participating too?”

“I’m not the successor, so it doesn’t matter if I don’t do it. Probably Abraxail would have participated.”

“It actually was like that. I was still a teenager at that time… ”

A person in his mid-20s who had already passed his youth spoke.

uh. Something is strange.

Aren’t I also in my 40s just by age?

Because my physical age is still in my teenage years.

Let’s go with the younger one.

“Now, everyone can go to their seats. Parents and their families can go there. Current students click here. And Alice… What do you know?”

“Yes. Because I participated last school year as well.”

Was it like that?

They probably participated because they were members of the royal family. I didn’t know at the time.

If he says it’s true, it must be true.

Everyone went to their seats and I headed to where the current students were.

The entrance ceremony is basically an event in which existing students do not need to participate.

However, this is an aristocratic society where political connections are very important.

The entrance ceremony, where one could meet high-ranking nobles without any special justification, was a very important event.

The self-restraint of a high-ranking noble that is usually difficult to encounter.

You can become friends by calling them senior or junior.

Therefore, the academy does not specifically prevent students from attending the entrance ceremony.

There are many people who do not attend.

‘Should I just not attend at all?’

I thought about running away right now.

If I were to evaluate this event with honest feelings, it would be a hassle.

Anyway, whether it’s Alice or anyone else, it’s okay as long as you participate in a moderate amount of social circles after the end.

I was wondering whether there was any need to attend this event, which took place a long time ago.

‘It’s annoying, let’s just get it out of the way.’

I am a soul who has not enjoyed much freedom after finishing the seasonal semester.

Of course, you have the freedom to enjoy this level of freedom.

I slowly walked around and got away.

It must have fallen roughly a few hundred meters.

The point at which the foolhardy strategy is working properly.

“Professor Maximilian?”

But my escape plan was blocked by someone.

Maximilian Wilhelm.

Head professor of martial arts subjects.

He appeared before my eyes.

“Yes. It’s been a while, Cadet Abraxas. After the end of the semester, another professor took charge. Has it been almost a month?”

The academy has a September semester system.

That is, the vacation period is from May to August.

It’s there in December too. That’s a three-week break to celebrate Christmas.

It would be more appropriate to call it a holiday.

So it’s been about a month since the beginning of the semester that I’ve seen him.

“New student entrance ceremony. What a memory. Last year, you didn’t come out, so I dragged you out myself.”

Are those memories?

No matter how I look at it, I don’t think it’s true.

“But. Right now, I don’t have to attend the entrance ceremony.”

“I heard that there is a younger brother among the freshmen.”

“If you don’t have a good relationship with your younger sibling, you often don’t attend.”

“That’s because the atmosphere is ruined if the younger brother is a political enemy. But isn’t that the case in your case?”

So why on earth do you care about that?

Even if you are a professor, is there a need to worry like this?

You’re not a teacher.

When I looked at him with that expression, Maximilian laughed.

Something seemed funny.

He continued speaking.

“Aren’t you bound by a contract? Is it really necessary?”

“It’s not that significant anyway. I will participate in the subsequent schedule anyway.”

“The royal family also participates. Is it really necessary? I don’t think there’s anything wrong with looking good.”

“Why do you care so much about me? The relationship between a professor and a cadet is usually far from this.”

“I think it is a duty to the disciple who taught him to awaken.”

I roughly understood what he said.

After winning the sparring with Maximilian last time. I became qualified to learn his awakening period.

And after the end of class, I actually started learning.

Perhaps it was because of the Ghost Sword Technique, but it wasn’t that difficult to understand.

It was still difficult to use in practice.

So I forgot about it while taking the seasonal semester.

From Maximilian’s perspective, he seemed concerned that I was some kind of favorite student.

At the awakening stage, it wouldn’t be strange if he became your favorite and best disciple.

“If you attend, there will be many people who will try to approach you. Although I wouldn’t recommend it if you don’t have access to them. From what I’ve seen, you’re capable of that.

So wouldn’t it be better to do it? The position of the Imperial Guard is such a position.”

In other words, to put it simply, I was told to do well, so I was told to shut up and listen.

no. why me.

It was around this time that Maximilian’s and my opinions clashed.

Kwaaa

A huge sound rang out.

A huge storm suddenly started.

The sky is getting dark even though it is clearly daytime.

Clearly something was wrong.

When Maximilian and I looked at each other in confusion.

Suddenly something fell from the sky.

“Vampire?”

vampire.

Their invasion has begun.
