章 64: Chapter 36.2: Vampire (6)
Ballon and Begos looked at each other in embarrassment because of the Lord's sudden appearance and sudden departure.
"It was an honor of a lifetime to see the Seventh Lord!"
The two did not straighten their backs until the Lord and they could no longer see his entourage.
On the inside, they were very relieved.
Just thinking about how terrifying it would be if they had been held responsible for anything related to the auction.
Of course, this was the Third Lord's territory, and it was entirely the mayor's authority to manage this city of Domihawk. But still.
"…I suddenly feel 10 years older."
Begos muttered with a face like he was exhausted just as he said.
Ballon nodded and agreed.
"Why the hell did the Seventh Lord come to the city of Domihawk…?"
"How can we guess the thoughts of the great people? Think of it as fortunate that it passed like this safely."
Ballon sighed as he looked at the slaves left by the Seventh Lord.
"So, the person in the auction house Sir Begos was talking about is the Seventh Lord, right?"
"That's right."
"So what about Valkilov now?"
"What are you asking about something obvious? It's completely over. If you have any connection with them, cut it off as soon as possible. Huh… I'll have to go back to the castle in a hurry, too. What kind of lightning bolt is this?"
***
The slaves' personal problems were handled simply and reliably using the mayor.
The reason for the massacre at the auction house was that Valkilov attacked first, not because I was going to enforce some kind of justice.
We immediately returned to the inn.
Rudica was waiting patiently in the inn's room with Baros.
Rudica's eyes widened when she saw her sister.
"Sister!"
"···Rudica!"
The two immediately ran to each other and hugged each other.
Maybe she didn't completely trust me, and she, who was still on the verge of breaking point, burst into tears as soon as she saw her sister and hugged her in her arms.
I looked at them and asked Baros.
"Did nothing happen?"
"Yes."
After the sisters' reunion was over, she thanked me with a face that was completely dispelled by doubts.
"Thank you so much for helping us."
The older sister's name was Rubica.
I told the two sisters to sit down. It was so we could talk about the Elrod Forest.
Rudica had already heard the story, but her older sister, Rubica, did not know about it yet.
Rubica listened to what I was saying while clasping her sister in one of her arms.
"Elrod… forest?"
After listening to all the stories, Rubica, who seemed to have a vigilant personality, showed a slightly uneasy look as expected.
"It's the home of another tribe, and we don't know if they'll welcome us…."
They were sisters who lost their hometown because they were driven out by their own people from where they originally lived.
If I asked them to visit another vampire tribe, the other's reaction was just normal.
There were many reasons vampires had a bad image in this world.
Adults could suppress their vampire instincts, but not all adults suppress their desire for blood.
It was just like humans. Adults could control their desires better than children, but where in the world were there only such great adults?
Especially the Sixth Lord, the Tyrant, he's the best example of a bad adult vampire.
When such people gather to form a tribe, they literally became a swarm of who hunted other races.
The tribe that had invaded the land of the two sisters probably also belonged to that kind.
"Don't worry about that part."
I said in a confident voice to wash away their anxiety.
"The vampire tribe living in Elrod Forest is a very gentle tribe. Humans like me will be rejected by them, but if they are of the same kind, they will accept it."
Of course, I had never seen them in person.
Still, the reason I could be so sure was because I had played the game.
When the episodes related to Elrod Forest in the game story progressed, vampires who went to the Elrod Forest for reasons similar to these sisters appeared.
The tribe from Elrod Forest embraced all of them and lived peacefully amongst themselves.
Except for one 'problem'.
And by solving that problem, there's a chance that I would get the blood magic I needed so much.
Rubica said nothing as if she was in trouble for a moment, then asked me.
"But you… no, he…."
"It's Ron."
"Yes, is Ron friendly with the vampire tribe that lives in the Elrod Forest? Hearing the story, it seems like you know them well."
These two probably now thought that I was trying to introduce them to the tribe at Elrod Forest out of pure goodwill, but it was the opposite.
I was going to use these sisters to connect with the vampires there.
I nodded, feeling a bit of a prick in my conscience.
"I met a vampire from there. That's why I know about Elrod Forest."
Anyway, I have to take them to Elrod Forest, so it was important to reassure them first.
Rubica, who looked like she in agony again, nodded as if she had decided.
"Okay. We'll go to Elrod Forest as Ron said. Thank you for being so kind to us."
"Good decision."
The persuasion was over.
Now it was time to head to Elrod Forest to get blood magic.
