She Returned as a Vampire - She Returned as a Vampire chapter 26
26 – The future doesn’t look so bright
The day was not meant to be bright.
The red moon was still shining red in the darkness, staining the snow that covered the ground red.
I know now. The blood isn’t that red.
So are her eyes.
Her eyes, a little darker, more muddy in color, looked really bloody.
With the weight lighter, I watched in silence as she carefully tucked her pocket of her metal ornaments into her bosom.
Silver… I decided to keep the silver ornaments in the end.
I couldn’t break her stubbornness that she couldn’t leave these things behind.
“How many days has it been?”
The scenery of the sky, which did not change at all, was heterogeneous and frightening.
The sight, as if time had stopped, never looked good.
“Well, I’m fine too…”
I couldn’t see the aggressive look from before when she came to my side and wiggled her hand.
The monster that forcibly knocked me over, smiled broadly at me as I shook my head, and swayed my hips up and down ravenously disappeared,
How should I react to the girl who gets scolded by her owner and looks at me like a downcast puppy?

If you try to act as if you touched it unintentionally, you will be caught.
Have you forgotten the eyes that shine even in the dark?
Even if you try to pretend you don’t know, you can see the movement of your eyes very clearly.
…Reluctantly, I gently held her hand.
I would like to think that her taste in wearing half-gloves with her fingers protruding in winter is also very unique.
How could these parts be attractive?
Slowly, he reminded her of the reasons he fell in love with her.
Although he is reckless, he definitely has soft parts.
Has it smiled at the meticulous way he likes children, drops everything that clings to him, but doesn’t forget to take care of any presents he wants?
The point is that he always pretends to be strong when he goes out, and at home he seems to be relaxed or sloppy.
Have you ever sighed at being a fool who can’t even match your socks properly if you don’t wake up in front of me while spending all your energy trying to do it without mistakes and being perfect in front of others?
Has it been said that when you fall in love, you only see the good points?
Then this is the moment when her flaws are visible.
Am I losing love?
Just as the will to keep moving is broken by the cold wind of winter,
Is her heart for her slowly shattering?
After being shaved like that,
Where should I lean on the woman I was supposed to be in charge of?
Wouldn’t she rather have her for her sake, just have to turn her down for her? Really?
She’d rather she’d cast her out beyond her cold dark night air,
Should I have let anyone become a biting monster?
Like that monster with sprawling hair and grotesquely long fingernails that rushed to bite me,
Did I have to let her be like that?
Her memories with her were too precious to say yes,
Her love for her still remained.
Even if she became a vampire,
Perhaps going back to that moment, I would cut her arm again and again and give her her blood.
But after that?
After accepting her like that, she rushed at me without even receiving her forgiveness from me.
The warmth I showed you for a moment completely blinded me, and during the times I can’t even remember, you’ve been raping me so wildly.
To continue accepting her, I… Am I not too weak a human being?
Compared to her, her strength and now a man who is inferior in size.
Her lover who has a body that will turn the situation upside down whenever she wants and covet it over and over again.
Is this really a bright future?
And…
No matter how many times you covet each other and share pleasure, it cannot be called truly good love.
It only looks thick on the outside.
“What is that? Why is the village so bright?”
It was her voice that broke those thoughts.
As she said, the village we were heading to was engulfed in fire.
The shimmering lights and their size were unusual.
“Didn’t you say the night lasted several times? To light a fire so brightly in the darkness – Wait a minute…”
Yeah, it wasn’t a normal size at all. The fire was engulfing the entire village and devouring it ravenously.
“Fire? Is that… The house on fire? The town hall, Mr. Miller’s shop…?”
Something was happening without our knowledge.
***
The bloody battle taking place in a city far away from the protagonist of Blood Moon was so brutal that I couldn’t bear to open my eyes.
In the feast of human-made ornaments,
Among the many blasphemous red flesh and writings,
Only the crimson armor reflected in the red light was fighting for the humans.
Those with many sins, those without sins. The unfaithful, the faithful.
Those who believe that if everyone is human tonight, a life worth saving,
Waving the circle mark surrounding the octagonal star drawn on the cloth covering his chest, he took the lives of those who were not allowed to.
It is not to live according to His order,
Those who tried to extort the lives of others and live longer than the permitted time deserved to be erased from the world.
Ppogak –
So another cursed one obeyed the god’s command.
Maybe once a town guard or a city knight,
It reached out with its worn out armor still clad in its head, and its head was smashed to pieces with a mace.
The protruding pieces of flesh and the exceptionally dark blood were scorched and turned to ash as soon as they touched the blessed silver armor.
As many of them disappeared as ashes at the hands of their comrades, the paladin shouted at the evil ones who growled or laughed while exposing their fangs.
“Today, these streets shall be reclaimed in His and Man’s name. Wicked men hear!”
Those who had served him for a long time and swore that they would wield arms only for him were good people who kept their faith even when the church became dirty.
Therefore, this man, this knight, and this follower had no doubts.
Once he held the mark he was wearing around his neck and held it up to the sky, they hesitated and began to cover their eyes.
“Oh, Lord of the Eight Stars. Light upon these wicked monsters who oppose you!”
As I roared the village square, the stars in the sky twinkled.
And,
“Kyaaa!!”
“Ahh, ahhh!”
“The light, the light, the sky! The sun…!”
From the paladin’s hand, the light that illuminated the entire city flashed for an instant.
The light was so powerful that the eyes and limbs of the vampires who were sitting there were burning in an instant.
That was the response to sincere faith.
“The Lord approves our actions, brothers. Charge!”
There are those who hold onto the blade of a greatsword and rush at it as if holding a spear.
There were also those who clung to the shield and violently pushed away what was supposed to be a vampire that spit out screams of burning pain, and another cut off another one’s breath.
Those who silently do their part without any doubts are slowly trying to regain a section from the vampires –
“Oh, this is difficult. Have you come this far already? I haven’t even had fun yet.”
Looking down at the knights from the roof, their eyes saw someone in rusty armor wiping the blood from their fangs.
With the red moon at his back, smiling and holding on to his half-shattered helm, he greeted him in the manner of the old kingdom, and once again showed off the hordes of vampires filling the streets.
Something was different this time.
Until now, we were defeating those who were rampaging with blood, but now we are facing those who are standing on the edge of their murderous intent.
The vampires, who were much more proper than the ones they had just dealt with, but still wore rag-like armor and looked like soldiers, even had weapons.
It was a moment when those who were armed with firm conviction shook their hands a little.
“The soldiers I lead are still very thirsty. Above all, they haven’t plundered yet!”
Rough laughter broke out, and the sound of metal scraping or beating wildly on the stone floor began to drown out the stillness.
It was madness and hostility that pushed calm and conviction.
“Above all, I’ve been a bit tired from conducting so far. The one I haven’t enjoyed the most is me, you guys! If you guys mumble, what am I going to be, huh?!”
“Ooh, ooh – !”
“Isn’t it the captain who always takes the most!”
The paladin quietly took out a sign to those who chatted with each other, giving and receiving each other.
In a tightly clenched fist, the mark of the eight-pointed star began to vibrate slightly and slowly emit a small light from within the fist.
“Noisy, noisy! Ay, really… Huh?”
As soon as their commander read the change in mood, the laughter died down and the iron screamed no more.
Inhaling and exhaling once, the knight roared with a voice that gradually grew.
“God, shine!”
Another flash of light followed by a scream.
When the blinding flash disappeared once again, he walked forward with fierce faith, walking the white curtain in front of him.
If his beliefs are correct, what he will see are enemies who will be so consumed with pain that they will lose the will to resist.
However, the commander was half burnt.
And his comrades began to exchange swords or shields with the vampire soldiers who were still alive.
“You know, it’s troublesome to think that a stinging light like that can kill me.”
Slowly, but surprisingly quickly, the commander who restored the burnt area to some extent showed more strength in the sword.
Whisk, shhh, shriek, the guy exclaimed with a smile on his hideous mouth as he made a sharp metal sound directly through his throat.
“Because I am the main character of this blood moon, Gallahe – “
However, the words did not follow.
Galahead, this man who has been holding his breath for 200 years has been mistaken even if he is mistaken.
He lived more than that as a monster when he was human, and during that time he didn’t live as a knight.
Even those he put into his group, and most of the soldiers he selected after thinking in his own way were low-level deserted soldiers who did banditry, or nominal knights with no skills.
So, in this sword-to-sword fight, it was as if the winner and loser had already been decided.
Ttogak,
The rusty and blunted sword was so absurd that it was easily broken by the sword held by the paladin.
Without giving the monster time to question his broken faith,
The silver armor, not missing the moment, swung the sword aiming at the monster’s neck with conviction.
The head flying across the air in the dark night was like a signal flare signaling the human counterattack against the blood-sucking monster, against the cursed night.
