“That’s right.”
“Who are you?”
Dersan reached out toward Reef without answering.
In response, Gulpiro hurriedly raised his magic power and performed magic.
Aww!
Blood and magic collided in the air.
Thanks to Gulpiro’s defense, he didn’t get hit directly, but the impact caused Reef to fly to one side of the store and hit him.
“Uh-huh…!”
It was time for Gulpiro to perform the next magic right away.
Dersan, who had approached a short distance in an instant, was aiming the dagger he had pulled out at his neck.
“············”.
Gulpiro looked at him like that, then slowly lowered his hands.
Dersan smiled and nodded his head.
“Make a wise choice.”
“Why are you attacking us?”
“Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m not at all hostile to you. I was just trying to get rid of the disturbers in the conversation… was that woman important to you?”
Dersan scratched his chin with an empty hand and looked carefully at her face, then burst out a small sigh as if realizing it.
“Oh, aren’t you the slave gladiator bitch of Actipol? Was it a Reef?”
Reef got up from his seat and glared at him fiercely.
“Well, anyway, don’t move and stay still. If you want to save your life even a little bit.”
Dersan turned his gaze back to Gulfiro.
“I only want one thing, Gulpiro. Where are you, the Blood of Diferi, the elixir you crafted?”
Gulpiro replied with a chuckle.
“It’s not for me.”
“Even if you don’t have it in your hand, of course you have the recipe. Give it to me.”
“Crazy bastard, did you think I would do what you said if you threatened me with just a knife to my neck?”
Dersan lit a crimson flame in his hand and aimed it at the Reef. Gulpiro salivated at him.
Dersan let out a mean laugh.
“Yeah, that’s right. You had a pretty special relationship with that gladiator bitch, didn’t you?”
“············”.
“Come quietly with Elixir’s recipe. Otherwise, it will burn without leaving a single bone fragment.”
That was the moment.
A blue sword shot like an island battle from the window swept over Mount Der.
“······································································!
He hurriedly twisted his body and barely defended himself, and then bounced off to one side of the store.
Shortly thereafter, a new one flew through the window and landed on one side of the store.
The woman with the sword, Ashel, stared at the staggering Dersan with cold eyes.
Gulpiro looked at her like that with surprised eyes.
“you······?”
Then the door of the store opened and another voice intervened.
“Didn’t I say that? Maybe you don’t know.”
A man walked in and looked around the messy interior of the store.
Then, he stopped looking at Dersan, who had an even more bewildered face.
The man, the 7th lord opened his mouth.
“What are you, vampire?”
Refrigon (7)
Late at night, I got out of the inn and took a light stroll along the street.
Ashel was still watching Gulfiro’s shop, so I was alone.
I’m sorry for the trouble, but I didn’t think it was too much of a concern.
Whether it was the Seintea’s tracker or the tyrant sent by the tyrant, it wouldn’t be strange if either side approached Gulpiro for the rest of the time. Even if the possibility was slim, there was no need to be vigilant.
Have you ever imagined that, on the Gaitan, as soon as I left, the sorcerer of the Seintea imperial family would attack the Haerin people?
“How much is this?”
“It’s just a fairy tale, my dear.”
I bought a snack to eat on the night street where the night market was open.
After I left, I thought I should bring some to Ashel, so I took her share as well.
And as I was moving to the potion shop, I was struck by a weak energy in my supersensation.
“···········?”
I hurriedly ran towards the potion shop with my impressions fixed.
When he reached the store while avoiding the eyes of passersby and using the space leap, he saw the messy interior seen through the window and Ashhel holding a sword.
‘Whew….’
what’s the fuss?
But luckily, I thought it was not too late, so I stopped running and entered the store.
As if my appearance was sudden, Ashel and Gulfiro looked at them in amazement.
“Didn’t I say that? Maybe you don’t know.”
Saying that to Gulfiro, he turned his gaze away.
A man and a woman in robes.
I checked the woman’s face and tilted my head. riff?
‘Why is he here again?’
She, too, was looking at Achel and me with a look of bewilderment.
【Lv. 63]
The one who appeared to be the intruder was a man. From the outside, it looked like a vampire.
Could it be that he was really sent from the tyrant side?
“What are you, vampire?”
There was no reply from him.
The man who had been silently rolling his eyes and rolling his eyes suddenly stretched out his hand to me. Blood-red flames rose in the air.
I immediately used Gascalid’s blood technique.
Then the flame went out and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
“What, what?”
The guy let out a hoarse voice.
I unleashed the blood magic that I had stolen from him and gave it back as it was. An explosive burst of blood covered him.
The guy fell to the floor. He held on to one arm that had been completely torn out by the explosion and let out a suppressed scream.
“Ahhh!”
That’s pretty much what this ability is.
Gascalid’s blood magic was nothing short of a perfect counter against vampires.
I stood in front of the fallen one.
“Did the 6th lord sent you?”
When he asked that question, blood rose again in his hand, and he shook his head urgently.
“Oh, no! It has nothing to do with the Sixth Lord!”
“Then what?”
“That, that’s….”
He hesitated to answer with a pale, tired face.
Come to think of it, were there quite a few vampires from the same hometown as the 6th Lord in Mahea City?
Some are in the Monarchy Castle, and some are forming separate organizations and licking the feet of the 6th lord… Ah.
‘Is it that one?’
Nolhave, the number one intelligence organization in the 6th monarchy.
For some reason, I suddenly thought that he was related to the information organization, so I asked.
“Are you Nolhave?”
“······································································!
For a moment, the man’s eyelids trembled.
I was convinced that my guess was correct and asked Gulpiro.
“Did this guy come to you knowing his identity?”
“······· Yes. I don’t know how you didn’t get it.”
If you don’t know, it’s enough to find out now.
I looked back at him and asked.
“From now on, I will kill you if you stop answering even a little. How did you know that Gulpiro existed?”
As I made the flame bigger, he hurriedly opened his mouth.
“Well, it’s just a coincidence! I found out by chance!”
“Please explain in detail.”
The following explanation was as follows.
The time when the great alchemist Gulfiro and his arrival in the city overlapped, the treatment of a patient with an incurable disease, and even the appearance.
After hearing all the explanations, I looked back at Gulpiro with a slightly puzzled face.
He, too, burst into laughter.
“You only found out because of that? Heh…”
Anyway, I was relieved to myself.
If it was really from the tyrant’s side, I’d be entangled with him again and things would be annoying.
“So, it means that you eventually raided the store after coveting the Elixir.”
I frowned and looked down at him coldly.
He knew the true identity of Gulpiro, so there was no reason to show mercy.
His complexion grew even whiter as he had foreseen my end.
“Come on, wait a minute…!”
His whole body was engulfed in flames.
The wildly fluttering flames burned him up in an instant, leaving no corpse behind.
“Heh, really….”
Gulpiro, who was weeping, said to me and Ashhel.
“Thank you. Thanks to you two, I survived. It must have been really bad.”
I nodded and looked at the one remaining.
The woman who caught my gaze was startled and stepped back.
······· So why is he here?
I’m curious about the details, so I’m going to ask Gulpiro, but he asked me first.
“By the way, how did you do that? It looked like you stole the vampire’s powers.”
I answered simply.
“It’s true that he stole his blood.”
“Hey, how is that even possible? There’s no way it’s magic, maybe it’s a mystery?”
I didn’t really give a detailed answer.
“Tongue, take the blood wine?”
At that moment, the woman who had still kept her mouth shut let out a trembling voice.
When I looked again, she was staring blankly at me with a confused expression on her face.
“You can steal the blood alcohol? Really?”
“Yes, but why?”
I couldn’t even speak.
Because she fell to her knees on the floor out of nowhere.
“Please help, my lord. My, my brother has photohemosis.”
“············”.
“If you have the ability to steal blood, you can also cure that disease, right? Is that so? So please…”
I looked down at her desperately begging with a narrowed eyebrow.
Understanding what my gaze meant, she put her forehead on the floor and bowed her head.
“Please, my dear… If there is anything you want me to do, I will do anything. I will give all of my possessions. If you bark like a dog, I will bark and if you lick me, I will lick you. Please only my brother…”
“Hey.”
I cut her off.
“I can’t cure your brother.”
“············”.
“This is taking away the blood magic itself, not the ability to heal someone who is addicted to the ability of blood magic.”
Photoblood is a disease that disappears from the world only after the death of the tyrant. At least as far as I know it is.
Even if I take away the tyrant’s blood, there is no way to cure someone who is already suffering from photohememia.
That’s because it wasn’t an ability that he could control arbitrarily in the first place.
She slowly raised her head and looked up at me in vain. It was a face full of despair.
She hurriedly turned to Gulpiro this time.
“Eh, Elixir. If it’s an Elixir? If it’s an Elixir, isn’t it supposed to be able to heal my younger brother? Yes?
“It cannot be cured.”
Gulfiro firmly shook his head.
“Didn’t I tell you what kind of disease photobreath is? Any potion that contains even a little magical power will only be poisonous. Even if it’s an elixir.”
Her body hardened like a stone statue.
After sitting still for a long time, she muttered.
“······why?”
With an expression full of anger and resentment, he shouted like a scream.
“Why, why! Why not! It’s an elixir! It’s a new drug that brings the dead back to life! But why!”
“············”.
“Why are you saying you can’t cure a single disease, damn why… why is everyone saying no… why…”.
She staggered and stood up.
He then walked out of the store with a precarious pace that seemed to collapse at any moment.
