Volume 2 - CH 16

I was sitting with Sophia in the usual drawing-room. Then, as usual, Liza came in, with a troubled face.

“How was it, Liza?”

“Yeah, I’ve just confirmed with someone from the vampire country in a telepathic way. He has already left the country. And since our school has a rule that we always accept visitors, if this happens, I can’t stop it.”

Liza told me something rather simple, but important.

“Ah… Are you serious?”

“Well, you don’t have to be so discouraged, Mr. Chrono! Our relationship is basically a secret, and the chain of domination isn’t always out, yes. It’s not easy to get caught.”

“Sure. Hey, Chrono’s and Sophia’s chain only come out when you order them, and I don’t think it’s a problem as long as you’re careful about the wording like before.”

“Well, I will naturally be careful there.”

I hated the fact that my relationship with Sophia would be revealed and then I would have to fight against the vampire king. I just wanted to make friends and live happily while studying at this school. Therefore, I had to be careful.

So, I decided to collect information.

“In how many days does the vampire king’s visit will start?”

“Well, it’s not clear until the King arrives at this school, but … how long did it take from the vampire country to this royal capital, Sophia-chan?”

“Well, if you use a magic carriage and go slowly, you’ll reach it in about three full days. It’s not that far.”

I see. Since Sophia’s father has already left the country, will he arrive at this school in a couple of days?

“Okay, we will raise our alertness around that.”

“Ah, ah … I’m sure it is okay? My dad isn’t that scary, so if you talk to him, he might understand.”

“I can’t really trust the word if there is a possibility, Sophia.”

If he doesn´t understand by talking, I think it’s a problem to say something that could draw blood.

“Ah, you don’t have to worry about that, Chrono.”

Liza said that while squeezing my hand.

“This case is largely due to the force majeure of our accident, so we will protect Chrono with all our might.”

On top of that, Sophia’s hands also overlapped.

“Me too! I’ll follow Mr. Chrono with all my might!”

For the time being, the two seem to be fully cooperative.

“Oh, it would be great if you say so.”

“Yeah, you can leave all the follow-up to me! Well, I think Chrono is so strong that we don’t have to protect him.”

“Ah, ha … that’s certainly true.”

“No, I’m grateful for that kind of protection. Fighting vampires is not good, let alone if it is the king, he would have tremendous strength.”

When I said that I never wanted to fight, Liza and Sophia had their eyes rounded for some reason.

“Um … that way, have you ever fought a vampire, Chrono?”

“Eh? Ah, yes. Haven’t I?”

“Well, how? Normally, vampires have powerful magical powers, so I don’t think ordinary demons will challenge them…”

Ah, vampires have powerful magical powers and bodies, so no one would like to fight them. I didn’t fight because I wanted to fight vampires.

“Well, what do you say, I fought stray vampires. You see, there are runaway humans who failed the vampire ritual.”

Vampires are not only a race, but it is also possible for humans to become vampires. A ritual called “vampire conversion” is required, but basically, the owner of powerful magical power becomes a vampire. However, if it fails, it becomes a monster that loses its will and may be subdued as a dangerous existence.

In my hometown when such an existence appeared nearby, I often went out as a youth to get rid of it.

Sophia, sweating on her forehead, opened her mouth.

“Ah, when those strays happen to appear near our country, they are at the level where a special vampire unit must show up. Well, Mr. Chrono fought alone? “

“Well, you know. I was the only one who was young, and Grandpa and Grandma didn’t want to move. If you leave it as it is, the fields and forests will be vandalized, so I had no choice but to do it… I remember it being really strong and having a really hard time. It was literally a hard bone to beat.”

“Did you win even if you broke your bone? Alone?”

“Somehow, though.”

Now, I should complain to my grandpa and grandma a little more and share it with them.

Well, it can’t be helped even if I say it now, so I have no choice but to make it through a bitter memory, and I nodded in my heart、

“What do you mean, Miss Liza? I felt like it would be okay if my father came.”

“It’s a surprise, Me too, Sophia.”

For some reason, Sofia and Liza were nodding at each other in agreement.

I’m going to explain that it’s not so okay for me.

With that in mind, I, along with Sophia and Liza, worked out what to do when the Vampire King came.
