Academy Light Attribute Vampire - Academy Light Attribute Vampire chapter 137
137 – Hideout
Leaving behind such a small commotion,
Allied forces decided to leave the Beinhardt site for a while to reorganize.
Where?
“Welcome to the Martina family’s mansion.”
“Wow… This is the…!”
My house.
To be exact, at Adela’s mansion near Merhem.
“…”
I was dumbfounded for a moment,
Looking at the topography, it had to accommodate hundreds of people, so it wasn’t even a tavern.
As a result,
Somehow, I had to force my friends into my house.
“… Welcome.”
The reason you invited a friend to your house in the first place was avoiding during the war.
Because everyone was not feeling well,
The members of the Bloodghost Knights and Guild Association were resting in a temporary barracks set in a parade ground full of Adela’s taste.
The countermeasures meeting, which started as soon as we arrived at the mansion, ended quickly.
The ‘Flower of the End’ suddenly appeared
The ‘blood’ that continued to disappear during the war,
The sound of the heartbeat heard at the last moment of flowering.
Something that wasn’t even a monster or plant that Veronica didn’t know about.
Even now, only a handful of people who have directly dealt with Veronica and stems have gathered to gather their opinions.
But what am I doing?
Yeah…
“Uh… Use the room with Grade and Seongjin. Ah. Wait a minute. Do you need anything?”
2Nd floor hallway.
Is it because I used too much mana for the last mana release?
Bodily abilities weaken as night approaches.
The more the meeting progresses, the more I can’t properly aim at my body,
It was unbearable for Veronica and Adela to look at her with pity, so she used the children’s guidance as an excuse to escape.
Anyway, I had told Veronica all of my opinions that I had grasped from the vision and the circumstances so far,
They also sent me out, telling me not to worry and to go inside, as if they were bothered by the fact that I was forced to stay in the conference room.
“Whoa…”
– Thanks! See you later!
Fortunately, thanks to the unnecessarily spacious mansion, we had enough living space,
The problem was food.
Of course, as many hundreds of people moved, combat rations were prepared, but
There was no way the mansion was equipped with food to feed that many people.
As a result, dinner is delayed until the servants of the mansion rush to the city to buy food ingredients.
Thanks to that, I’m in charge of allocating rooms that I don’t even have.
Of course, the room was always cleaned by the staff,
I don’t know how to properly allocate rooms.
But even so, rather than just going into a room and resting,
It would be more comfortable to be assigned by me, who bears the name of Martina.
Selina and Elena’s room assignments are over,
The formal room distribution is almost over with this.
…By the way.
“… Hey.”
“Huh?”
“Why are you here?”
– Snooping.
A guy looking at me with a tilt of his head as if he were looking at someone asking something strange to my question.
“That’s right. Did you apply for a helper?”
“…Since when?”
Sir.
“After sending Morhan away, I called my hometown right away. If you look at Chuck, it’s Chuck.”
“Anyway…”
One notice is that he is filthy fast.
As soon as things went unusually, it was publicized through the community,
He even applied for a helper, keeping in mind that he would apply in the neighboring country of Bisteria.
Belatedly, the academy blocked voluntary helper support as a student protection measure,
It is said that Neneto was already proudly named in the Merveus support team.
“Why. There are tactics and 2nd place, but is there any reason not to have 1st place?”
…Still, if you listen to Selina’s story,
It is said that Neneto did a great job in the battle in the gorge this time.
“So. Where is my room? You’re not asking your roommate to sleep with the tough guys at the gym, are you?”
“…That’s favoritism.”
“How about it. It’s a preference to be there at times like this. Excluding the guild members, the room is quite spacious anyway, right?
I’m afraid there will be voices of dissatisfaction, so I’m just staying in a temporary barracks all at once.”
“I was thinking of letting Rock Paper Scissors go inside, just in case, but the guild said it’s only for one day anyway, so it’s okay?”
“Well. They are people who have been sick of being homeless in the gate. A hotel is a temporary barracks.”
That’s true, but
When the guy who is clinging to me right now asking for a room says that, it sounds kind of mean.
“…You can share the room with Morhan.”
“Huh? You?”
“I…”
“Oh.”
It hasn’t been long,
It’s been a while since I’ve come so I felt a little awkward, but anyway, this was Rai’s house.
“Where is your room?”
“… It’s at the end of the corridor on the third floor.”
“Huh? It’s high. Besides, it’s at the end? Aren’t rooms usually built in the middle?”
“…It’s a bit of a maniac room.”
“Hmm…”
Neneto senses something suspicious, and a sense of mischief begins to appear in his eyes.
“I’ll tell you in advance. No.”
“What. You haven’t said anything yet?”
“You’re asking me to show you my room. I’ll go in quickly and rest today to replenish my stamina.”
“…Actually, the only thing I did today was walk to Beinhardt. Even that came on Kirue’s back.”
Kirae.
A girl who talked to me with her blood all over her body and burst her tentacles.
Saying this sounds amazing…?
‘Obviously… Cat ears’
“That Miao girl?”
“… To be precise, it’s a cat. It’s different from a cat. It’s a beast.”
“I’m sure you’ve heard of that name… Ah!”
I remembered.
The day I ate with Bella after vacation and before school started.
-Looking at that reaction… You ran away again?
It was when the story of Nenetto’s fiancé came out.
-But Kirue really likes Neneto, right?
Kirae.
It was definitely the name that Bella introduced as Neneto’s fiancée.
For weak males, strong females.
A bond made by the hot customs of Neneto’s hometown.
“…Anyway, they seem to be getting along well.”
“It’s noisy. The reason I come here and love you is because I don’t want to sleep in the same barracks as her.”
“Do you even sleep together?”
– Cheerit!
I’m sure he’s staring at me with disgust, but
Neneto wasn’t a threat at all because he was a Neneto.
“I just think of it as a pillow holding me. How many times do I wake up choking in my sleep…!”
“Oh. An active woman.”
“Okay. So, when are you going to show me your room?”
I thought she managed to get her words around,
The fire returned to the room in an instant.
‘… I must have cleaned it up well.’
The last time she left her house,
She said that at the time, her body was also dry, so she ate her blood pack randomly to somehow survive the night.
‘It didn’t have much effect.’
Anyway, thanks to that, the vinyl of the blood pack was always stepped on in my room,
I witnessed Seong Jin-ha, who happened to witness the scene, looking at my room with a hard expression and passing by.
“…”
“Hey… Hey!! Are you okay?!”
Let’s get lost in thought,
Neneto raised his voice and called me, perhaps thinking that I was lost in the aftermath of the battle.
“…What happened?!”
“Lai…?”
Thanks to that, Elena and Grade, who had just come this way, hurriedly ran out into the hallway.
“It’s okay. Just thinking about it for a second.”
“… I’m surprised. If you’re really unwell, tell me. I won’t bother you.”
“Huh? What? What’s going on?”
Fishik.
“Follow me.”
“Oh. Show me?”
“What are you showing me?”
“Rai Bang.”
“…!!”
As soon as I heard that you were heading to my room,
Elena disappeared, saying she would bring Selina, and even Morhan and Grade began to quietly leave her room.
“…Bring Jinha too.”
I’ve seen my room in Seongjin,
I don’t think you’ll be interested in this kind of thing, but…
From noble mtl dot com
“Jinha too?”
“Uh. Just ask.”
But it felt a bit too much to leave Seong Jin-ha alone.
And after a while.
“…”
-Single single.
Let’s gather Seong Jin-ha, who walks out with an expression full of annoyance, and Selina, who is smiling casually.
“Let’s go.”
I crossed the corridor on the second floor and headed to the third floor.
“…With.”
The 3rd floor corridor has a very different atmosphere from the 1st and 2nd floors.
A place where convenience facilities such as warehouses and libraries are usually gathered.
But at the end of that hallway. A place with a strangely large door.
“Here.”
This is the place,
It was the room where Rai had lived half of her life.
When I have a seizure,
Since many servants had to come in and take care of Lai, an exceptionally large room was needed.
Meals are also provided by employees.
– It’s okay.
“… Huh?”
“What is this?”
‘…Oops.’
I wonder if
The latch I put on last time was still attached.
“Never mind.”
-Kikik!!
So a huge visit opens.
“Oh…!”
“Wow!”
“This is real…”
With a structure that does not allow light to enter,
A pitch-black room greeted us.
“… I can’t see anything.”
That’s right.
“Whoa…”
Buck and go.
After infusing mana into the eyes to determine the approximate location,
I pulled the switch on the light I had added after I was possessed.
Click!
“Oh!”
“Very wide…!”
“It’s spacious…”
– Tung…
Huge bed and table,
On the table, there were heaps of blood transfusion packs brought by servants just in case for emergencies.
Other than that…
Nothing.
There is no way that Rai had a hobby or necessary amenities.
She just lay her own body on the bed.
I didn’t even need a watch. Even if you know it’s time for lunch, even if you know it’s time for dinner.
The servants brought food, but there was nothing they could do for Lai.
At first, the expression of the children who opened their eyes wide at the scenery of the large room,
It gradually changes subtly.
Knowing the circumstances, Elena and Grade are sad.
Selina and Morhan. And Neneto had a look of bewilderment.
Sung Jin Ha…
What. He had a grumpy expression, as always.
“… I told you there wouldn’t be anything fun to watch.”
“… You.”
Neneto forcibly tries to change the mood in the atmosphere that is gradually turning into a melodrama.
“hahahaha… I can’t believe there are a lot of erotic books hidden under this bed!”
“Neneto.”
“… In moderation.”
I immediately shut my mouth at Elena and Selina’s cold eyes.
– Plopped.
“What are you so serious about? The floor is soft, so sit comfortably.”
The reason the floor is soft is,
It was just in case Rai fell off the bed.
But…
‘What’s important about that?’
Now, it was just a nice corner where friends didn’t have to sit on the hard floor.
In the first place,
I’ve lived in this room for at least two months.
At the time, I was too busy preparing for the academy, so I didn’t even have time to change rooms.
In the first place, there were not many things that seven people could do together in a large room.
“…Let’s talk.”
“Talk…?”
“Yes. Something we were curious about. Something like that.”
At my suggestion, they began to sit down in a circle on the floor one by one.
‘…Looks like you’re on a school trip.’
Let everyone sit down,
For some reason, awkwardness began to flow.
Actually, except for Seong Jin-ha and Grade,
We were so close that we talked a lot to the point of getting tired of each other.
Even Grade quickly became close with Elena with his unique affinity,
It’s not at all an awkward relationship.
However,
It’s not a chatter where you sit in a cafe and eat cake while talking behind the teacher’s back.
Story.
“Then…”
“Huh?”
Unexpectedly, Elena was the first to speak up.
“B. I’m curious about how everyone became friends with Rai.”
“…?”
“Oh. Are you okay?”
“Certainly… At some point, I felt that we had become very close to each other. Grade or something.”
“Sure. I brought it up, so I’ll start with myself!”
“…Guys?”
I was just going to talk briefly about what happened after this war.
At some point, the story suddenly started.
First, Elena.
At the time of the formation of Team 2 and the Grem Rock King incident.
From Archen Forest to the events in Elbheim.
Come to think of it, I spent a lot of time with Elena.
As Elena’s story progresses,
Morhan nodded her head to the story of expressing gratitude to me for choosing me, who was at the bottom when Team 2 was formed.
In the case of Gremlock King, Grade was smiling bitterly at Kirna, perhaps remembering that she had injured her arm.
And when the story of the attempted abduction in Archen Forest and the World Tree battle in Elbheim came up.
“If it hadn’t been for Rai then…”
“…You’ve been very busy.”
“Yes! Isn’t rai great?”
Selina started sending unspoken pressure.
Her eyes were clearly smiling, but
Her mouth wasn’t smiling.
“Okay. I’m next.”
So next, the story of Selina’s school raid and Sella.
“…! Wasn’t that what the professor asked for?!”
“Sorry, Elena.”
The story of breaking Bella’s arm and breaking Shin Jong-gil’s knee during Neneto’s ranking test.
And about the shock when it was revealed that the identity of the unidentified older sister was Adela.
“Knees…? Rye?!”
“…Bella. Bella is cute.”
“Selina…?”
“Definitely. I was really surprised at the awards ceremony.”
Grade’s Don’t Ask assault incident and the story about Kirna.
“…”
“Thanks to you, I was able to take revenge. Thank you.”
The more the story progresses.
“Uh… Then me too!”
“That was it…”
Because these were incidents that were unknowingly intertwined,
Everyone gathered here was able to talk together while forming a consensus.
In Morhan’s turn, he smiled shyly and passed,
And finally…
“Jinha?”
Sung Jin-ha’s turn has come.
I was still making a sullen expression,
As the story progressed subtly, he managed to answer questions directed to Seong Jin-ha.
“…Me?”
“Yeah. Jinha has nothing to talk about?”
“…”
Due to Sung Jin-ha’s personality, he may not have the confidence to participate in such a friendly talk.
I was on the verge of bursting from the constant barrage of compliments.
At this point, I’m done with the story…
But contrary to my wishes.
“Martial Arts Tournament. Blood Ghost Knights. Which one do you want to hear first?”
“…!”
“What else are the Bloodghost Knights? Come to think of it… Lay and Sir Banter already seem close.”
‘…Even you, Brutus!’
I wonder if I was swept away by the atmosphere,
Even Seong Jin-ha started talking.
‘…’
That night.
We really talked a lot.
I received a message from the waiter that food ingredients had arrived on the way, but
We all immersed ourselves in talking to each other until late at night, leaving our meals behind.
Elena regretted the existence of Yoon Mi-rae and Bell, but
When we get together again later, let’s have a clean talk with 10 people, including Kirna.
At some point, even the energetic voices of the guild members and knights coming from the temporary barracks through the window became wet.
“Good night everyone!”
“Yes. You too. You must prepare for tomorrow.”
“Ahahahaha… I’m a little hungry…”
“Shall we ask the attendant to bring it to the room?”
I became a little sentimental, but now it was a wartime situation.
Everybody decided to go back to their assigned rooms to relieve their body fatigue in preparation for a battle that might start at any moment.
“…”
The result.
At some point, I was left alone in the spacious room.
‘…It’s spacious.’
Maybe it was because of the atmosphere we were all together a little while ago,
For some reason, my heart feels more empty.
That said, I had no intention of breaking into Neneto’s room to sleep with him.
Just.
I’ll get better if I get some fresh air.
While thinking that, I went outside and walked down the hallway.
To the main gate of Rue Martina,
I could see through the window an ornately decorated carriage coming in.
‘… Huh?’
A pattern with bat wings sticking out at the end of the hand that symbolizes harmony.
…It was the pattern of the Merveus family.
