Omniscient First-Person’s Viewpoint chapter 440

Mid-term recess

Even a one-day recess can be unsatisfactory for humans. It is said that there must be caution in trials, but even one day is too long for a person in a hurry.

However, for a vampire, it is a short rest period where they go out for a day and drink blood. The vampires leisurely left the hall, promising to meet again soon. Fortunately, a few Elders remained.

“O progenitor. I will leave for a moment. Please allow me to leave first.”

“It looks like you are busy. Come and see.”

“I am devastated.”

Led by Valdamir, who left the hall first, the Elder also retreated as if something was not right. Before I knew it, only me, Tyr, and Lir were left in the hall.

After looking around the empty hall, Tyr lowered her solemn expression and spoke.

“You overcame the difficulty with flying colors.”

“There are no difficulties. If something goes wrong, is it still my fault? “Lir will die.”

The moment you place the burden of risk on others, it becomes entertainment. There is no tension if there is no stake.

Despite my honest answer, Tyr smiled slightly and praised me.

“hehehe. He may say it leisurely, but I know. The reason you tried to save her. “As the king of humans, you love someone who saves humans.”

“No? “I don’t particularly like it.”

“That kind of thing again. You may have been picky, but you helped Shay a lot. In the same way, Lir volunteered to help her not long after seeing her. “I’ve been seeing you for so long that you don’t even know.”

Did I do that? It’s not that I particularly liked saving humans, but I think the desire to watch Somang a little longer was greater. Even if he had been a murderer instead of a healer, I would have just watched him if he hadn’t killed me. The problem is that they usually try to kill me first.

It looks like Tyr misunderstood a bit… What should I do about this misunderstanding? Shall I release you?

“… Or is there another reason? “Do you have any dark intentions?”

“No. “When I think about it, I think it’s true.”

It would be better not to solve it, cancer.

Tyr cleared his expression and looked towards Lir. Lir was still lying alone in the hall. No one took her out or ordered her to move, so she stayed still.

“Lir Nightingale.”

“Yes, founder.”

“The future position will be a test of your qualifications. “Everyone will test and evaluate whether you are worthy of reaping my true blood and whether you have the power to do so.”

However, Tyr blurted out her words and glanced at me.

“If I could know your abilities in advance, I think the evaluation would be a little easier.”

I tried to talk back, but it was a suggestion to kiss you in advance because I would save you. Since I take Lir’s side, Tyr also supports me. It is impossible to distinguish between the magnanimity of those in power and her dirty backroom dealings. Actually, it’s the same thing.

Of course, I am not the only reason. Tyr, who once walked a similar path, may feel a bit of a kinship with Lire, who heals humans with her blood healing arts. If Tyr had still maintained control of her blood, she might not have even had this trial. All vampires under her blood’s control must have felt the same way about Lir.

Hmm. That’s right. There was a reason why Uiseon survived in the future seen by the returner.

At this point, it is safe to say that Uiseon survived. However, Lir seemed to have no emotions.

“… “I don’t have any talents to show off.”

“You have no talent? From what I heard, no Elder can match his ability to save humans.”

“It’s not about saving people. I’m not interested in their lives. I just have a hand in their deaths. “It’s similar to killing.”

“Kill me?”

“Yes.”

Tyr gestured as if to ask for an explanation. Lir answered.

“I have no interest in their lives. After all, human beings live and die as they please. How he lived or how he died, I decided I wouldn’t care. I will only be involved in their deaths.”

“To prevent death is to save life.”

“O progenitor. Do you know what is the easiest way to save people?”

“What is it?”

“Killing a murderer. Or, swear to kill the murderer.”

He’s still young, but he’s got the point right. It seems like a unique point of view, but surprisingly, it is common sense that is used everywhere in the world. This is also the reason why murder is considered a sin in any country and any society.

Kill the murderer. That firm promise creates order. Humans can live in a solid order.

“But I wouldn’t care even if he were a murderer.”

Lir promised without emotion.

“Even if the person I saved becomes my father’s toy and suffers, and cries out to be killed. Even if it becomes an ingredient to fatten up my father or a source of entertainment. I’m going to fix her mother.”

A father who views humans as objects that need to be fixed. He made it his business to drain his blood, tear his flesh, and cut his bones. Elder Lu Skinnia not only modified the demi-humans under his command, but also touched humans. Even his mistress and daughter.

Liir, who inherited the Elder’s blood and learned from his actions, unexpectedly developed excellent medical skills. His outstanding medical skills were mainly used to treat his mother.

This is possible because he is a vampire without blood or tears. There, Ruskinia performed the forbidden experiment of breaking the bridle, as a result of which he was killed. Was that what happened….

But.

The culprit is Baldamir. Everyone is accusing Liir of being her culprit, even though she herself believes the same. Something happened in the gap of perception.

“Is this person strange?”

Maybe we can figure out this gap now.

“How can that lead to killing people? He’s just a weak-hearted person who can’t accept someone’s death. What kind of grand reason are you giving? “Are you in puberty?”

Tyr, who was feeling similar sentiments, nodded his head in agreement. It would have been easier to just explain it as a human affection, but the picture became strange because I added a reason.

However, Uiseon was a much more cool-headed person than I thought.

“Around that time, she became a vampire. “I’m sure the impact will remain.”

“If I’m being honest, something is wrong with the picture!”

“It’s true. And I was in a position where I had to ask those questions. “The people I saved soon ended up in the same situation again.”

That’s right. If an ordinary child living in a military country had these concerns, he would have threatened to wake up from his dream and face reality. She grew up as the Elder’s daughter and her reality was bloody, so she deserved it.

“If I told Mr. Ruskinia, wouldn’t he have listened?”

“When I complained to her father about it, he turned me into a vampire, saying it would take away my worries.”

“I’m sorry. “It was a bean powder family beyond imagination.”

The more I talk about it, the more it becomes a gutter. Does it have to be pushed into such an extreme situation to create a twisted being called Ui-seon?

“I don’t know if it was me before, but now I can no longer feel sympathy. So I have to establish principles that will motivate me. “If you don’t give it a reason, you will eventually forget why you move.”

Just as Tyr hates the Holy Emperor, it was set as a principle. Therefore, equal treatment can be given regardless of the type of person you are dealing with.

So, this is why he became a hero in the future of the returner. He must have saved humans with his unchanging stubbornness.

That raises even more doubts. I spoke again, reading her memories.

“Are you sure you killed Ruskinia?”

“Yes.”

Surprisingly, it is sincere. If so, it is true. She freed herself from Ruskinia’s bondage after long efforts, and tried it on Ruskinia.

However, Ruskinia was killed by Baldamir.

There is one reason why there is a difference in perception. Liir failed to kill Ruskinia.

“Did you have the ability to kill Ruskinia?”

“Yes. Clearly.”

… It’s not impossible.

Because the shackles of her blood were twisted and distorted, Lir was thrown out of her shackles. Had Luskinia resisted she would never have achieved it, but she might have under his acquiescence. No matter how strong a person is, if she doesn’t resist, she will die.

But.

“I will ask you the last question.”

If you have the ability but fail, there is only one reason, right?

“Do you really hate your father? Someone like you?”

Even Lir could not easily answer this question. No matter how coolly she reflects on herself, she may not even know herself.

Vampires are people who prioritize reason over emotion. They have no whims. Their characteristics of being neither dead nor injured have made them closer to a phenomenon than to humans.

The same goes for Lir and Tyr, who were free from bondage, that is, not receiving orders from the tribe. They needed a reason to act.

Still, they are still human.

“Humans are more consistent than we think, so it is difficult for him to hate only his own father while being kind to all other humans. “It’s strange that he says he will cure all the dying, but only tries to kill his own father.”

I read human minds. Although it seems great, it is limited to ‘humans’. What they saw, what they smelled, what they savored, what they touched. You can’t play them all. Because I didn’t remember that. Only the parts that were once filtered out and remembered remain to be read.

Since the mind is not perfect, I, who reads the mind, am also not perfect. If it were perfect, we would know everything about how Ruskinia thought, moved, and died.

However, I only know the feelings of Lir in front of me.

“Did you really want to kill Ruskinia?”

Where did her stubborn and twisted kindness come from?

“… I don’t know.”

Lir calmly looked straight into his heart. The cool-headedness of the vampire also made her look at the deep feelings in her heart coldly.

“Even though I longed for affection, it was because he turned me into a vampire. “I can’t feel any affection.”

Lir indifferently packed up her things. A bag containing a sharp scalpel, forceps, and scissors. Things needed to sew humans. In Luskinia’s hands, they were used to create pain, but in Lir’s hands, they were tools used to relieve her pain.

“Even if I tried to save him, he wanted to die himself. I have no choice but to kill him.”

You can only feel pain when you live. Ruskinia was surprisingly accustomed to saving humans. All of her detailed knowledge about the human body and its functions was received from her father.

What kind of existence are parents to their children? You may hate it, you may resent it. It is clear that he is at least in charge of a significant portion of his life. Even if you don’t want to.

“Even if I said I loved him. Because he ordered me to hate. I hate him.”

And Ruskinia, his father and suzerain, was the majority of Lire. Lire walked the path he didn’t want to because of his father. The life of a vampire, the life of an elder killer. And even the elder’s life.

“He didn’t give me anything I wanted. If so, I can’t help but hate him.”

Having packed all his belongings, Lire bowed down towards Tyr.

“Thank you for your help. “The ancestor’s mistress.”

“What? Let’s say you saved someone.”

“No. You’ve revealed every detail about my father. Everyone knows he deserves to die, so I’m satisfied.”

It must have been different back then, but the feeling of hatred now seems real. Lire, who sincerely thanked them, withdrew leaving the two of them alone.

“… That’s why I didn’t see what kind of ability he had in the end.”

“I see. It’s the ability to heal people, so it wouldn’t be very useful to a vampire.”

“Why don’t you bring one in and try to cut it?”

“In front of vampires? “Is it a slaughterhouse?”

“It’s about bringing it back to life, but isn’t it similar to a veterinarian?”

“You seem a bit unqualified to be a veterinarian.”

I don’t know if Ui-seon can prove her qualifications among the Elders, where the puppet company is filled with monsters covered in blood and with vicious nicknames. It won’t be easy.

Then Tyr said reassuringly.

“What is there to fall? Coincidentally, my daughter-in-law is also human. It would be okay to have a good doctor by your side.”

… Righteousness should thank me. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have survived so easily.
