She Returned as a Vampire - She Returned as a Vampire chapter 34

34 – Hiring a butler

“I don’t even know where the mansion is… Is it okay to go?”

“You don’t have to worry about it, Niel. It’s okay. Don’t worry about anything and leave it to me.”

It’s because I’m not trustworthy.

I can’t say

. It would surely hurt her, and it would be a complete denial of her resolve.

Knowing how much work she’s been through to the two of us, and how clumsy she was, I was very concerned about where she was going.

The place we want to go to is the reconnaissance area she was aiming for right before she changed.

It was somewhere in the forest where there were many missing people around.

A bitter wind and snowflakes blocked the road ahead, and the occasional goosebumps of crying created a dreary atmosphere.

I continued to walk through the darkness without even expecting that morning would come or that the surroundings would become brighter.

And I was overflowing with thoughts about what I would face and how I would live tomorrow.

I couldn’t think of a solution, especially since I couldn’t dare predict what her plans were.

If I had a plan –

Such regret continued to linger, but as long as her thoughts were firm, I couldn’t do anything.

I had no choice but to hold her hand and make my way through the cold, dark night.

“Must have been around here. If I remember correctly.”

“Is there a map…?”

“That’s enough, Niel. I’m not the old me.”

The map I took out with a flutter was swayed dangerously by the wind and crumpled here and there.

“Okay, okay, stop putting it in.”

“Wait – Huh?!”

Tak –

The paper disappeared right in front of my eyes in an instant, and it flew high into the sky while rolling in the snow.

Why do things I worry about always happen without going astray?

Please, I hope nothing happens that I don’t want to happen, but it happens all the time.

…Should we rather consider it fortunate that the wind did not blow?

That’s because I missed it grandly.

“It’s okay. I already know the way. All I have to do is keep moving forward like this. Then…”

As soon as she finished speaking, red lights started flashing in front of her.

No, even from the side. And from behind too.

A group of people surrounded us before we knew it, and they didn’t look friendly at all.

“Blood, blood. Fresh blood!”

“Give me your blood bag…!”

For those who are like hungry beasts.

What are these vampires wearing torn robes or rags?

Perhaps, if I’m right, these were servants who worked in the mansion we were targeting.

But if even the servants are all crazy about blood – I don’t think they’ll be all right.

“Stand back…I can’t do that, can I?”

“Then, as always, Elena.”

I put mine on her back and took up a mace instead of a sword.

After putting down the burden on my back, I felt that my body had become much lighter, and I shook my stiff body once to loosen it up.

From noble mtl dot com

At least I can’t see anyone using a bow against these guys, so this strategy will be more powerful.

Go back to back, knock down the oncoming guys and that’s it.

I thought so.

“Suhuh…”

With one breath, she created a shockwave that caused my clothes to flutter and the air around me to be pushed out.

“Kyaaak – “

“Kyaek-gyahak..!”

Sounds of flesh being ripped away, and the sound of being cut off, began to be heard.

Am I planning on killing all the enemies behind my back?

By the way – if that happens…!

“Blood, blood!!!”

My God, this is a vampire.

How could those who blindly desired only blood be human once, to the point of even thinking that they might have once been human?

Some of it didn’t even come to me.

Clothing in the shirts and vests that looked a little bit better, as I mentioned earlier, they rammed their faces into the already torn corpses and began to gobble up liquids and swallow them.

There were four of them coming in front of me, all loosely clad in rags or leather armor.

I think four is enough, but I can’t help it.

In order to block the first one’s rush and aim for her head accurately, I fixed her body tightly with my hands holding the shield and both legs supporting my body.

Like a leg planted in the ground, like a tree holding the soil firmly,

That’s how I received the first one with my shield and pushed it away.

But surprisingly, isn’t it too weak than I thought?

As soon as the first one hit the shield, it rolled off the ground very easily.

Then what to do next is a little clearer.

Without thinking deeply, I grabbed the mace and swung it, hitting the bone pain from the side.

Slices of meat and bone adorned the eyes as if they had been cut into fruit.

However, the very thin appearance of the bones that I saw for a moment made me feel very uncomfortable and strange.

I hit the third vampire just now to make sure it’s correct.

Bagak –

I caught my eye with the guy’s stance and crooked arm that easily collapsed to the point of absurdity, but what appeared beyond the fallen man was a vampire flying at me with all his might.

“Hiyah!!”

Splitting and tearing through the air with bloodshot eyes, I cut off the head with the tip of my shield.

Then, in vain, without ever putting strength on his body, the guy rolled on the ground, pulled out his tongue, and flinched as blood flowed through his broken head.

So the four were able to neutralize it without much trouble.

And if I was an easy four to beat, she who is so much stronger than me would have nothing more to say.

As expected, when I turned around on her back, I saw her holding her face with one hand and holding her up high into the sky.

“Leave this, monster… Monster…!”

A hungry female vampire struggling on limbs, somehow grabbing her arm and trying to get her off.

…I once saw a trick of squeezing the juice out of an apple with one hand.

It was a scene of a man with arms as thick as a log and hands twice as big as mine, squeezing fruit with his own hands and drinking it.

Isn’t that a sight that shouldn’t come to mind in a human form?

“Helena! No!”

I called and stopped the girl who was about to dye her everywhere red.

“Ah…?”

“If you splatter blood, it will stain your clothes. Let it go politely.”

Then she stopped holding power in her hand, and instead sharpened her fingertips and swung them at once, leaving only her head in her hand and throwing it to the ground.

Her head goes somewhere, but instead of her body, a red line extends far above her neck.

Arms and legs were hacked to pieces,

A corpse shed bloody tears with holes in its stomach and chest.

A man on his knees with an oblique cut …

I naturally frowned at the unpleasant sight, but it might be a better treatment for the poor souls, at least in the sense that everyone was completely out of breath.

That’s also true, because the people I dealt with were on the verge of death.

And they were creating even more horrific scenes.

The root of the problem was that the first guy I pushed with my shield was alive.

He had driven his teeth into the nape of the neck of the third guy who was right next to him, and was drinking his blood.

“aaa…!”

Tears no different from those of humans,

Scream,

And language.

“Sal, save me…”

Goosebumps ran down my spine.

I shouldn’t have looked into those eyes.

My stomach felt nauseous and my head was dizzy.

No matter how evil their intentions, it wasn’t too difficult to feel their feelings.

That’s why it was painful.

“So… That’s why I burned the village and ‘gave’ everyone to death…”

Instead of seeing the mayhem of biting each other, tearing each other apart, causing bloodshed, killing and dying,

Are they liberated so that they can burn and disappear far into the sky?

In place of me, who couldn’t bear to strike them with a mace, she took the weapon in my hand and blew the face of the guy who was ravenous for her blood into the darkness.

And let’s draw a big arc with our arms once more,

The dark red blood is very shallow,

As if trying to let people know that there is little blood left –

A small bloody line protruded.

***

Those who coveted the corpse she first ripped out soon came to their senses, noticed them, and knelt down in front of her.

They, with sparkling red eyes and somehow wearing formal attire, bowed their heads and bowed their heads.

Perhaps he came to his senses after drinking blood, and the one standing in front of them greeted Elena directly.

“Did mad with thirst and committed insolence. Greetings to a noble blood relative…”

Sorry, she wasn’t interested in them in the first place.

Acting according to the simple rule of killing me if I hurt her, ignoring me if I don’t, she made eye contact with me and sharpened her knuckles once more.

“What should they do, Niel?”

“Please have mercy, we are servants who used to manage the mansion of Dorothy Tia, a blood relative! Now… We’ve been kicked out.”

With my eyes wide open, I grabbed her hand as I couldn’t stand still at the pitiful appearance of those who were clasping their hands together.

I didn’t hold her tightly, but gently pulled her away and kissed her on the back of her hand.

“Let’s hear their story, Elena. This is the information we need. They know very well the mansion we are looking for, and maybe we can take it as servants.

If you betray me, then you are there.”

I already saw her speed and brute force.

A body and strength that surpasses both humans and vampires will be able to help you overcome any crisis.

She lightly killed three already strong vampires and subdued the hordes of them at once.

She was capable enough to take action, so that she did not even dare to threaten her.

But as soon as I had finished my words, her teeth at the forefront of what seemed to be leading her pack of vampires politely bowed her body to her and to me, carefully expressing her intentions.

“Forgive me for any rude interruptions. I swear to you, dear Elena – “

“Hartfield. Call me Heartfield.”

“Yes, yes. We are with Mr. Heartfield – by any chance, it would be rude to ask for your partner’s name…”

“Niel Pietro. That’s his name.”

“Let me keep this in mind. We intend to serve Heartfield and Pietro from now on. Could you please give us permission?”

It was good that well-informed people wanted to join.

Moreover, it is the method chosen by those who have already been pushed to the brink. In other words, we are their best.

Looking at his appearance, it couldn’t have been more of an act.

I silently nodded her head to show her my thoughts, and she also gave her permission to join them with a nod of her head.

“Thank you, as long as you have taken us in, we will give you our utmost loyalty.”

In a very short period of time, I was fortunate to have many collaborators.

As soon as I felt a satisfied smile appear on my face, wondering if that alone would be enough, I put my hand on top of my head.

“As expected, Niel is wise. I may still have a lot to learn.”

Running through my hair and kissing my forehead,

Rubbing her body and opening her arms unprotected, she made it very clear that she wanted a hug from her.

Do you want your own praise?

“I don’t think we need to say that again. But thank you, Elena. Good job.”

I also patted her cheeks and neck in turn, leaving short red marks on her cheeks,

As I approached her and held her arms, she snorted and smiled.

It was not easy to accept the way she approached me in a way that was too overbearing for others and too low-key for me.

Her words that exalt me to the extent of exaggerating, and her behavior of entangling her body to me without paying attention to the eyes of the people around me were very difficult.

Above all, we couldn’t make those who looked at us sadly wait in a blizzard.

After soothing her for a while by kissing her lips briefly, several times, she removed her body and raised those who knelt on her cold floor. Erected

“The floor is cold. Please stand up. First of all… Is there somewhere to hide from the wind and snow?”

“There’s a cave we used to live in. Although it’s shabby – would you like to go there? There are a few more like us.”

“Then guide me there. I’ll ask you more about the mansion there.”

Of course, you can only tell by looking at the size of the mansion, but the more servants there are, the easier it will be to manage.

If my prediction is correct, the size will be somewhat smaller than the original number because they have already suffered persecution, and there is a possibility that more manpower will be needed to live in the original state.

So I had to think about those things and prepare for the future.

“Yes, and… If possible, would you mind taking those corpses with me?”

The man who had been leading the group and talking to them earlier pointed his finger at the relatively intact corpses and his eyes lit up.

“Having starved for quite some time, we must hurry to feed the rest with blood…”

I felt chills and chills from him looking at me with a complicated and strange face mixed with appetite and worry.

From the moment he closed his eyes and lowered his head, there seemed to be nothing particularly dark about him.

“Let’s do that first. If your name is – “

“Such disrespect! Sorry, I’m late. Tim Stone, the house’s butler.”

In the end, we moved to the cave, welcoming his party to our journey.

To join the rest of their comrades.
