She Returned as a Vampire - She Returned as a Vampire chapter 27
27 – Facing the Burning Village.
As we moved closer towards the village, the fire started to become more evident.
The cry of the wild beast, made of fire, soaring into the sky and roaring, burst through the air and expanded its body.
The village where we once went down to buy the things we needed, sometimes souvenirs, was being reduced to ashes.
Mr. Miller’s accessory shop,
Chobane Blacksmith,
Tug Bakery…
Everyone caught fire, and the houses on the street began to burn one by one.
It’s like lighting the wick of a candle to light up the dark night sky.
“…Someone’s starting a fire. Are there survivors?”
She looked towards the village with her eyes full of strength, then groaned and tried to move her feet.
It was not human-like to see a thick, low-trembling dog or wolf scratching their necks and threatening them.
But if there is still one thing that hasn’t changed from the old look,
“Damn, is this really the way to go, Elena? This way without a plan…”
Is it her attitude of committing and seeing as her heart goes?
“There are people you know. We need to get them.”
Of all the things she tried to do after changing, this was the most correct and kind thing.
Even though she became a vampire,
Even though I lost my human form,
It’s very fortunate that I haven’t forgotten the people of the past… But trying to go without a plan is the opposite.
“Do you know what that is, Elena? Even if you’re right, we don’t know who is starting the fire. What if it’s a cult? Or a villager? And see you change?”
Should a member of the Order… Be silenced? Kill?
You want her to kill her to protect her?
…Damn it, that’s it. Let’s hit
Then what about the villagers?
What if that fire is the daughter of Mr. Hans, who runs a bar? What about Mr. Miller?
Then how can I do that?
“Even if it’s a person from the church who wants to harm you to protect you, you can’t kill someone we know. Especially an innocent person.
As you said, I’d rather run away and disappear forever. We…”
Two?
From noble mtl dot com
For her, me too?
Me too… Did she and her get on board?
From the moment I took her in her that day and fed her with my blood, have they already been bound by an inseparable fate?
But I’m not her vampire, I’m just a ‘person’ who gives her her blood,
You have to walk down the same path as her, really?
“…Just the two of you.”
I opened my mouth, and finally put an end to my words.
What if not?
Watch her go crazy?
She is the one who can’t even live without my blood.
If I gave up here, her personality wouldn’t leave me alone.
Rather, like the days when I violated it, it is very obvious that I will do all kinds of things to make her fall in love with her.
Ah yes, I can finally feel her head rolling.
So…
But even with her head rolling, she has no other choice.
Being with her is the only option left to me, and being with her in some way remains.
The moment I put the first button on, this situation where my remaining options are getting narrower and narrower.
It was a very stressful moment for me to make multiple retreats.
But at least saying it seems like it was the correct answer.
“Two, two… Yes, two.”
A shallow smile hung over her face as she blushed and held out her hand.
When I grabbed her hand, her body suddenly jumped and was tied to her body.
And her next words drew a red line through the choices I thought were correct.
“I still have to go to the village. At least I need to know what happened.”
“Helena, you – Whoa?!”
Fang hit the ground, and she literally began to slide down her gaze.
Grabbing me firmly with one hand and putting me on her shoulder, holding me in the snow with the other.
“A-pu, a-pu-fu! Tuong, kwaaak!”
As she proceeded to cut through her gaze, the eyes began to collide with my face hanging upside down.
The snow, which had just fallen, drew white waves and mercilessly slapped my face.
The hardened pieces mercilessly beat my arms to cover my face.
In her cold and pain, I screamed for her to spare her as much as she could.
“Elena ah ah ah ah ah ah – !”
Have you ever eaten your eyes with your nose?
My advice is to hope you never have to experience it.

“Kek, kehek… Tweeh eh… Eh, achwi!”
I could understand that I had become a ‘snow’ person even if I did not roughly reflect myself on the transparent ice sheet or water.
Every time she brushed her face, white powder fell in a patter.
“I’m so sorry, Niel, because of me… Ugh…”
“Each! Eh, Acqui!”
What do you want to say to her?
The tingling sensations boiling from beyond my nose and the blinding sensations made my head go blank.
It felt a bit different from what her saliva and ‘poison’ gave, so it was a fresh sensation.
For a while, I blew her nose on the cloth she gave me,
I calmly listened as she wiped her face as she looked down at me, taller than I was.
A look full of warmth.
And gradually, as the interest and love from her hands flowed through her skin, did her face naturally loosen up?
She looked into my eyes and smiled broadly.
“hehehe, it’s clean… And, ah…”
Sure, sniff,
As she was caressing my cheek, she held my face with the same hand that had warmed her cold cheek and naturally kissed my forehead.
“Yeah, can’t you just show that kind of smile? You’ve seen this face a lot before.”
“Well… I don’t think I can force myself to give it away.”
She shrugged and looked up at the corners of her mouth.
I don’t have a single talent for acting.
In the first place, since I don’t like being cheated on, I tend not to consider lies even if I try to devise all sorts of schemes.
And whenever I chose to lie, I was caught in an instant.
“Oops, this wasn’t the time to relax like this…!”
She smiled brightly and looked around in amazement.
A fire that shows no sign of dying out.
She shook her hips off her seat and stood up, heading towards the town, as the hot air in the cold winter lightly blew through.
I removed the snowballs that still remained on her back and watched the burning village together.
“…Are there still people alive?”
The entrance to the village was full of bloodstains.
But frowning at the bizarre behavior of not a single corpse, I moved a little closer.
I drew the sword from my back with my right hand, and with my left hand in front of me, I took one step at a time and looked around.
“As expected, someone died here.”
Flesh remained. On top of the red liquid that covered her eyes, there was someone’s raw flesh that had cooled.
Perhaps it was a piece of debris created by the guards while fighting the intruders, or something belonging to the guards.
But the bodies were gone.
Occasionally, large and small pieces of meat fell on the floor – but there were no corpses.
“And the traces of being dragged to the floor like this.”
There were footprints, all heading towards the interior of the town.
But on top of that is covered… Boot footprints.
This is the most recent one.
That too – one, no, two?
“You know, Elena. Do vampires do this? Put all the corpses in one place?”
“The guys who tried to bite you didn’t look that smart. And… Well, I just need you.”
“…I see.”
She said that she only needed me, as if it were natural, and she couldn’t say anything more to her.
She didn’t have time to think to me how to react to her, so she evaded that she was like that, and she continued to follow her tracks.
“This is a fork in the road.”
These people wearing boots split in two at a place near the middle of the village.
One is the town square,
The other is the residential block of the town.
“How do I do it? Which way should I go?”
“I won’t fall. I won’t move without you. Never again.”
“Hmm, Elena, that’s… Maybe it would be much quicker to split in two and search for survivors.
Above all, I have a signal magic coal that I always carry around, so I think it’ll be fine.
Before I could finish her words, she grabbed my arms and shook her head resolutely.
“No, I won’t let you go like that. I won’t do that again. I won’t leave you anywhere.”
I’m a little grateful to look at you with such fierce eyes, but isn’t it time to move efficiently now?
When I opened my mouth to break her stubbornness, a scream suddenly burst out.
“Quaaagh – !”
“aaa!!”
A sound coming from both directions at the same time.
Of course, from different directions.
“Helena, this is-“
“…Kuck!”
Give up one side?
But if you can get both, it’s better to split now.
But if you have to be ripped off without knowing how things are going, this is…!
“Take this, Elena, take this.”
I put two magic coals in her hand.
“You know? How to use it. I have two. Keep one in your pocket and the other in your pocket. Use it if needed.”
“…Are you really going to be okay without me?”
There was hesitation on her face as she handed me the shield and face shield.
Above all, I knew at once what she was thinking when I saw her holding the iron mask I was wearing and holding her strength to not give it away even though I had to give it away.
“Elena, it’s time to save people. It could be someone you know. Maybe someone you know.”
“I’m not as precious as you. If I knew it would be like this, I wouldn’t have come.”
“I’m not saying that. You made the choice, and now is the time to act.
More than anything else, you’re the one who cared about people. Can’t do it We heard screams, and we have to move.”
I applied strength to the mask once more, and she put her hand on my chest, lightly masking hers.
“Promise me you’ll come back safely.”
“You always came back safely. So did you.”
“I, I…”
A face about to distort. Trembling hands and legs.
I wonder if I’ll let you despair like that.
“If coming back as a vampire bothers you, at least you’re back alive, and you’re the girl I know, aren’t you?”
“Ah…!”
Yeah, it’s always nice to have a part where emotions show up like this on the face.
No matter how much you try to restrain yourself in front of others, your emotions are all revealed through your eyebrows.
I wonder if that blatantly blushing face and twitching corners of the mouth is moving?
Please be impressed.
If your feelings are more soggy than that, your body will be in trouble.
“Ni, Niel, okay. I’ll be back soon! Soon!”
She stole my lips and ran away in an instant and disappeared across the street.
“Then am I this way?”
Click.
And the mask covered her face.
Although it is a bit heavy, it can’t be left out because it blocks at least a flying dagger or arrow.
And then she moved on.
The screams were steadily fading away.
And the fiery laughter grew louder and louder.
At the town square, it seemed clear that something was happening.
