Chapter 339
A life so long inevitably entails boredom, so the Lord Vampires, tired of living, turned their backs on themselves.
Therefore, Lucinil’s advice was that the five heads of families who were still holding on to this damnable life must have at least one reason to live.
So life is still precious to them.
“Of course, saying that you’re killing us is just a bit of a headache, but if that’s really possible, Lluen and Galarche might cooperate. Your whole life is only a short time from our point of view anyway, and if you think that helping you during that time avoids any hassle and pays off a debt to the Dark Lands, that’s not such a bad deal either.”
The Pandemonium and the Council had a relationship like cows and chickens, but in return for helping to rebuild the Pandemonium, they pay a debt to Darkland.
Even the demon king has Tiamata, so if they want to annoy them, they can annoy them as much as they want. Even three family heads have already promised me cooperation.
Rather, Lluen and Galarche have become a minority. Lucynil looks at me and narrows her brows.
“So, as long as I agreed to cooperate with you, the situation will take care of itself for you, so don’t talk nonsense like before. Got it?”
“Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of guy who does that for nothing.”
“No, you’re just a jerk. It is contemplative.”
… … How did know?
Could it be that traces of what he said and did until now remain on Valie’s face? And is it okay for a homunculus-born vampire to talk about contemplation?
Anyway, thanks to Elerys, it seems that Lucinil would be on my side from the beginning, and Antirianus also decided to be on my side.
And what?
As for the other Lord Vampires, I honestly don’t know yet… … .
“How did Elerith make a guy like this his lord… … . Ugh.”
why is he so nice
It’s annoying, but in the end, seeing that he explains everything and gives advice, it’s more than harmless and likes it?
Whether or not I was rather taken aback by my excessive kindness, Lucinyl lay down on the sofa and folded her arms, as if not to care anymore.
He told the other Lord Vampires that they had a reason to live.
That’s the same as admitting that Lucinel had at least one reason to live.
“I don’t know if I can ask you something like this.”
“If you’re worried about whether or not to do it, it’s polite not to do it, Archdemon.”
“What is Lucinil’s reason to live?”
“Are you doing it too? I really don’t have any burlesque hair.”
Lucinil frowns and looks at me.
“Why, if I tell you, will you do something for me?”
“Wouldn’t it be possible to take care of your worries together?”
“Words are liquid water. I mean.”
Lucinil looked up at the ceiling of the old castle with his arms crossed. Lucinel muttered quietly, as if it wasn’t really a secret.
“I want a soul.”
That vague statement made me gasp.
In that one word, I felt the unfathomable sadness of living as a long and long homunculus and having to live as a vampire.
I want to have a soul.
What does that mean?
I don’t want to be a human being, I want a soul that’s not something else.
I don’t know if only intelligent races have souls or which beings have them.
just a sure thing.
A homunculus, a created being, would not have a soul.
Lucinil wants what is lacking in himself. He turned his head towards me and smiled.
“Are you pathetic? How could a being of this size barely dream of something like that?”
“… … No, what?”
I think it’s going to be a desperate problem in its own way. Of course, I can’t fully agree with you.
I want to have a soul.
Lucinel didn’t explain why he wanted it.
“It’s just like that. It’s not like I can’t die because of it.”
The way he said it was pathetic. I only wish for that. He says so as if he has no such great aspirations or desires.
but.
Lucinil must have lived an immeasurably long time with only that one wish.

While Valie was talking to Lucinil at the villa, Eleris was talking to Antirianus.
“Antyrianus.”
“Yes, Elerith.”
“What do you mean?”
At that, the old gentleman only smiled as if he was embarrassed.
“The Demon King said he needed help and said he would help, but when he asked about his intention, he had nothing to say. haha.”
“At the meeting during the Pandemonium War, you said you didn’t even think about it and had no intention of cooperating. But don’t you have doubts that you will cooperate this time?”
The reactions of Lluen and Galarsch were natural.
That’s why it’s strange that Antirianus decided to help without much trouble.
“Yeah… … .”
The old gentleman was still smiling softly and benevolently.
“The Pandemonium War wasn’t fun, and this one looks fun.”
“… … Are you having fun?”
“Yes, fun.”
Antirianus, who had been laughing all along, carefully opened his eyes.
The vampire’s red eyes stare at Elerith.
“Isn’t this kind of entertainment necessary from time to time in order to endure an excruciatingly long time?”

“game… … What?”
No matter how much he agreed to cooperate, Antirianus was approaching this with the concept of killing time. And that was Ellerith’s rebellion.
“Say… … . You will have to cover… … . Antirianus.”
“Ah, excuse me Elleris. I didn’t mean to belittle or disrespect, but… … . But what is there to be so angry about? Whether I sincerely cooperate, or treat it as entertainment and cooperate.”
-Taktak
The old gentleman taps the castle floor with the tip of his staff and smiles.
“Isn’t it true that you want to help?”
The old gentleman left those words and passed Elerith. Eleris was staring at the back of Antirianus.
If you get the help of the Council, it’s like getting a thousand troops and horses in Bali.
Is it really right to hold the hand of that insidious vampire?
Elleris was never quite sure of that.
* * *
While the council is going on, there will be time for a proper conclusion to be reached. That’s why I had to stay at least a few days in this old castle, Epiax.
“Hey, Archdemon.”
“… … why?”
It seemed that he had attracted attention, and when he woke up, he suddenly appeared in front of me as I was walking down the hallway and started following him around.
“Honestly, don’t you appreciate that I’m helping you?”
“… … Thank you. Why?”
Lucinil stares at me.
“I was a little curious about the taste of Archdemon blood. Can I suck a little bit?”
“What, what are you saying!”
I was on the verge of having a seizure at the sudden outburst of words.
Can I say something like ‘I’ll have a glass of water’?
“No, can I make you a vampire? I’ll just taste it. a little. Oh, I’m really curious. really. Can’t you do that too?”
“no! What are you talking about!”
“Oh little! just a little bit! uh? I’m curious. Who is eating them?”
scary.
No, before that, if he really tries to turn me into a vampire, does that really work?
Are you too scared?
Only then did I realize that I was facing the highest rank among vampires.
What am I doing here?
He looks nice, but he’s really nice, right? You suddenly bite my neck and from now on you are my slave, aren’t you?
That, but… … .
He still looks like a child.
If he bites me, he sucks a little blood and whatnot, if you think about it, it seems like that kind of painting.
Suddenly I imagined myself getting bitten by Galarsh by the scruff of the neck.
that.
It’s not that it’s fast, it’s that it’s eaten… … ?
me.
Could it be a mistake to come here?
“iced coffee! Do you want to become a real Archdemon and do this in a small way?”
“Stop talking nonsense!”
I ran through the corridors of the old castle, and Lucinil annoyedly caught up with me by moving short distances at will.
“Yah! just give it! Give!”
It was clinging to my waist while making strange noises.
at last.
I went to Ellerith with Lucinil hanging from my waist.
“Lucinyl… … .”
Ellerith looked down at the little vampire, cold at the thought that Lucinil wanted my blood.
“What if I’m really curious!”
Rusinil sighed, asking if there was any reason to drink Archdemon’s blood.
“Lowering… … . Instead of directly vampirizing, putting the blood in a container and letting them drink it… … . I can give you a taste, but… … . The wounds on the lower body… … . I don’t think that’s a very good idea.”
ah.
There was such a way. Lucinel heard the method and said, Oh! looked at me with a smile.
“Oh, sure enough! hey! Just great.”
“No, what kind of blood did you entrust?”
The family of demand is the truth in a way different from what I’ve been through so far?
In the end, after struggling for a long time, I was the one who gave up in the end.
At this rate, I think I’ll stick my teeth in my neck when I sleep.
To be honest, I gave up because I was scared.
“I don’t know why I have to do this, but I’m doing it because I’m helping you.”
“Yep.”
In the end, I cut my own flesh and bleed into the treat Lucinil had brought. Elerith was also watching as if something was going to happen.
The strange thing is, I was myself who thought nothing of this kind of pain now.
“Me, low. the wound… … eww! Uh, you, too deep!”
I’m fine, but on the contrary, Elerith was fidgeting.
I gave him a few drops of my blood, and Lucinyl licked the plate and looked at me.
The expression is a bit sour.
“It’s raining.”
The impression was only one word.
I didn’t know why I was angry when I heard that my blood was tasteless.
I was just pissed off
* * *
The wound on his arm was stopped by Elerith. It was because Tiamata’s divine power could not be used normally.
Lucinil muttered that the taste of Archdemon’s blood was corrupt and went somewhere as if his business was over.
We were going to be here for a few days, so we had to eat.
And I wasn’t the only one who needed a meal here.
There is also Lydia Schmidt.
I had a meal with Lydia Schmidt with the preserved food brought by Ellerith. As soon as Ladia saw me, she froze, but when I said that she was coming to eat, she ate without saying a word.
“Have you come up with something like that?”
Perhaps it was because she chose a suitable place for her to stay, but her room was quite spacious.
A campfire crackled in the fireplace, and the room was smoky, and there were a bed, a sofa, a desk, and other items that shouldn’t have been there.
It was supposed to be lonely in a secluded place, but Elleris seemed to be trying to prepare the necessary items as much as possible.
It’s because the environment is extreme.
Given the size of the room itself and the standard of living, it’s hard to believe it’s royalty.
In fact, this is also a palace.
“Once the Council is over, you will be able to roam freely. Even if you feel uncomfortable for the time being, be patient.”
“… … yes.”
Ladia quietly munched on a piece of bread while watching Elleris notice.
