Chapter 536 – Clan Descendants and Evil Bloodlines
000
Cleon stared at the scene frozen, and Aine’s two younger siblings looked at Cleon and Pamela’s poses with a surprised look behind Aine as well.
Soon, the second was covering his eyes with both hands while blushing, and the third was looking at the place with an exciting expression.
“…Kuhmm… I’m sorry, Cleon-sama. I can’t believe this place was Cleon-sama’s place…”
And, like the second one, her face her blushes, but like the eldest daughter, she responds like an adult and clears her throat.
“Wait, wait. You’re misunderstanding.”
Cleon senses that something is wrong with her, so he tries to stop her.
“Huh…”
And Pamela, who raises her face while crying.
When the blood that flowed from her nose wet the corner of her mouth again, Aine put on a shocked expression.
“Oh, Cleon-sama. Can’t you think of holding back that woman and tripping her to the floor and doing her act her…!?”
“It can’t be… This guy fell alone… Hey Pamela, you explain as well…”
As Cleon said so, grabbing her by the shoulders and trying to raise her to her seat her, Aine wriggled her eyes her and she slowly walked to Pamela’s side her.
“Cleon-sama. Excuse me. Is this person, by any chance, a non-human being?”
“…”
Cleon was silent for a moment at her words her, then, oops. She turned her head with a smile on her face.
They’re half-hearted Their explanation was that they were beings with the power of ghosts, and were sensitive to non-human beings.
So, the fact that the Pamela in front of her is not a human but a vampire, she must have felt naturally.
“That-“
Looking at Aine’s expression her, wanting him not to lie, Cleon had no choice but to tell the truth for a moment.
Hearing the sound of another door being opened from the back of the store, Illenu walked out.
“What a loud noise… Did he fall again?”
Illenu walked out while wiping her wet hands with a handkerchief.
What caught her eye was Pamela, whose nose was bleeding, and Cleon, who supported her.
And a girl who doesn’t look like a ‘normal person’ who looks at Cleon with suspicious eyes.
Illenu’s eyebrows twitched when he saw that he was wearing a sword at his waist in her.
However, when Aine saw Illenu appearing from inside her again, she frowned at her as well.
“…She’s not a pure human either. Why are there so many people like this around Cleon-sama?”
“Don’t worry. Neither of you will do me any harm. I just want you to calm down… And listen to what I have to say.”
When Cleon spoke so as to calm her Aine, she shut her mouth for a moment, then sighed and looked back at her own brothers her.
Then, the two of them nodded as if there was no problem and relaxed their guard just like her older sister.
“Okay. Thanks, all three.”
When Cleon wakes up, Illenu cautiously approaches him and whispers to him.
“…Who is it?”
“Anti-ghosts… Speaking of which, it’s like this country’s intelligence unit. And. It seems that they specialize in dealing with nobles.”
When Cleon answered like that, Illenu nodded her head, saying, “Yes,” And then she smiled and approached Aine, who was standing in front of her.
“Welcome! Let me guide you to your table seat!”
Aine seemed a bit taken aback at Illenu talking like that with her refreshing sales smile, but as she led her to her, she guided the three sisters to the place where Herti and the others had been.
“I’m soju!”
Then, as Drye, her youngest daughter her, raised her hand with all her might and spoke, her eldest daughter and her second daughter looked back at her at the same time.
Aine, her eldest daughter her, seemed to be full of spirits, and Zubai seemed to be paying attention.
However, Dryne looks at the two as if she doesn’t understand why they are looking at each other.
“What am I? I’m here for a drink today. Didn’t I just forget about work for a while?”
“But…We are anti-ghosts. If there are alien beings that are dangerous to this country, it’s our job to rule them out.”
Drye seems sure to be on/off with the construction, and Zwei seems to be paying attention to people, although I didn’t know it well when I saw it before.
And- he is the child who is the most different from his usual appearance.
Draine, the youngest, was definitely the youngest in her age, and she seemed to be dealing with things with a pretty free-spirited mindset.
“In the first place, older sisters. Isn’t that too much? Cleon-sama is already a hero who saved this country once in a brothel, but if such a person is with an alien being, then there must be something wrong. “
Dryne speaks as if it’s outrageous to doubt his benefactor her, Cleon.
Seeing Draine like that, Illenu looked back at Cleon with a smile and talked.
“A bottle of soju!”
“…Now, both of you. Let’s do it quickly.”
Dry Ne, preaching in reverse to her older sisters her, and then hastening the spell.
In response to Draine’s actions her, Aine gave a hesitant voice, but Zwei cautiously raised her hand her.
“I-I… With this wine called Vialenti…”
“Yes. Vialenti…Then what about you?”
“…Beer please.”
In the end, after everyone ordered a drink, as if they couldn’t beat Illenu and Dryne, Cleon succeeded in wiping Pamela’s face her in the meantime.
“Is it because I ate cookies and filled my stomach? It seems that my recovery speed has increased a little.”
Cleon, who was stroking his chin and reasoning, nodded his head as he received Ilenu’s return her with the spellbook.
Illenu also looks at her with a slightly surprised look on her face when she sees that Pamela’s recovery is over.
“It’s amazing. I’m really already healed. Do vampires regain their strength when they eat cookies? This is a new discovery.”
“No way…”
Cleon thinks so for a moment, then turns to Pamela and says.
“Have you guessed anything?”
“Yes? Uh… So…”
Pamela put her hand on her head as she hesitated, thinking about something of her-
“Ah! I see! What I’ve recovered is because the cookie has ‘milk’ in it!”
“…Milk?”
When Cleon asks Pamela’s unexpected answer, she nods her head.
“Yes, milk! As with humans, animal milk is originally similar to blood. When I was living in the mansion, I also drank a lot of milk instead of blood. Besides, drinking blood directly is more helpful for growth!”
“…”
While hearing Pamela’s answer, Cleon puts on a bewildered expression.
And more than that, Illenu has a face that makes you feel dizzy.
“Then… What is it? The vampires who have fought with me up until now could have recovered by drinking milk if they were in a hurry…?”
“No… How about it. It’s hard to imagine them drinking milk out of a fight…”
While responding to Illenu’s words, Cleon collected all the orders on a tray.
Then, as he left the kitchen holding it, he looked at Illenu asking him to go with him, and then approached the table.
“Here are the things I ordered.”
Then, while watching Cleon put the trays down next to the table and move them one by one to find her owner, Aine opened her mouth.
“I’m sorry earlier. To send a suspicious look to my benefactor, Cleon-sama.”
“No. You guys think it’s just a job. It can’t be helped.”
Cleon shook his head at Aine, who apologized to him.
Dryne takes the soju that Cleon put on the table and talks to Cleon.
“Rather, was that what you were doing earlier too, Cleon-sama?! So Cleon-sama is also interested in women?
Zwei’s face blushed as if she was ashamed of her act of hooking a sensitive part of her without really holding back, but Draine didn’t seem to care at all.
Cleon couldn’t help but smile bitterly at her attitude, but she decided to tell them as they were.
“I met her just a while ago. She came here because her stomach was hungry… I don’t think she has any intention of attacking her person her.”
“I see…! You’re the one who says, instead of providing meals, pay with your body…!?”
Dryne looks excited and talks to Cleon, but after Aine blows a beetle on her forehead, she calms Dryane down.
“Calm down. It’s rude to Cleon.”
“Ugh…But it bothers me!”
As if there was a limit to accepting her maknae’s foolishness, Aine let out a sigh and just shook her head.
“So, that’s rude to Cleon-sama. If Cleon-sama’s words are true, and the two of you are trying to build a relationship like that, then it’s their privacy. We don’t have to express our opinions.”
“So no… Pamela!”
“Yes?”
Cleon must have thought that he could n’t convince or acknowledge them with just what he said, so he calmly called her who was sitting at her counter her.
Then Pamela got down from her chair and sprinted to stand in front of Cleon.
The behavior of a woman in her late 20s who looked like a 15-year-old girl no matter where she looked, the three sisters seemed to feel a little uncomfortable.
“Introduce yourself, please. These are my friends Aine, Zwei, and Drei. All three of them are soldiers of this Eastern country.”
“I see…! My name is ‘Pamela’. She has been asleep for hundreds of years and just woke up a few days ago!”
She introduces herself in a healthy way, the opposite of the timid self-introduction she showed to Cleon earlier.
“I see, Ms. Pamela, are you okay with being a vampire… ?”
“Yes, that’s right! She was a vampire from the oracle Ruth family. Oh, my father and mother, to be exact.”
“The whole family is a vampire…”
At those words, Aine pondered for a moment on what to say, but Illenu shut her mouth for a moment after hearing her story her.
And Cleon’s eyebrows twitched at the word ‘oracleus’ she put into her mouth her.
“…The Oracle family…?”
“Have you ever heard of it?”
Somewhere, while watching Ilenu repeating what she had said meaningfully, when Cleon asked such a question, Illenu paused for a moment and nodded her head.
“Family. Rather than a ‘clan’. At one time, there were several groups formed by combining the power of various vampire families. They ruled the continent by dividing it like a piece of cake.”
Cleon shuts her mouth for a moment, then she asks cautiously.
“How many years ago was that?”
“It was the last time the war called the bloodline war was over. The clans all collapsed, and the families scattered again. It was long before I was born. About 500 years ago… ?”
At her words her, Cleon looks at her while thinking, ‘It was so long ago…’.
“The Oracle Clan was a group of vampires who fought with a handful of humans on their side in the bloodline war. So, it had a friendly image with humans… Thanks to that, they were treated as ‘public enemies’ by other clans and were the first to collapse. I lost, but.”
“You are well-informed.”
When Aine responded to Illenu’s words, Illenu shrugged her shoulders.
“You have to be knowledgeable. As for prey.”
“…Hunter?”
“She’s a dhampir. Half-man, half-vampire, vampire hunter. Will you dispel her doubts about her as well?”
To Cleon’s words, Aine nodded as if she understood.
“The Oraclerus family, the leaders of the Oraclerus clan, said they fled to the outskirts to avoid the war. …So, Pamela is the surviving descendant of that clan?”
When Ilenu looked at Pamela as he said that, she only tilted her head.
“The rest of the family has been reduced to ashes, but Pamela, is there a reason why only you survived?”
“…That’s what I’m good at… But my father always told me that I was the ‘child who inherited the blood of Oracle the most.'”
What kind of jargon is that? Thinking, Cleon turned to Illenu, and Illenu shook her head and shrugged her shoulders.
At that time.
Thud. And as the bottle was placed on the table, puha! A voice rang out.
When the whole party gathered there looked in that direction, they saw her youngest daughter her, Draine, blowing soju out of a bottle.
“It’s dry!? Soju isn’t what you drink!”
“It’s okay, it’s okay~ Because I’m half-human and half-ghost anyway, so I don’t get drunk well… Hehe… !”
‘No, you’re drunk…!’
Cleon looked at Draine while thinking about it in her mind her.
“Rather than that, Oracle Ruth~ Gup… I’ve heard of it too…”
“Dry, are you?”
As her Aine looked at her Draine in a little disbelief, Draine raised her voice as if angry at her own sister, her face her blushing.
“That’s right ~! How does she even see me as an older sister ~ She studies history at least ~”
“That’s because you don’t read too much, old man… Ha ha. So? Where did you read it?”
Having said that, Dryne looked at her soju and shook the bottle.
“…Under.”
As if he couldn’t help it, Cleon went back to her kitchen and brought another bottle of her soju and put it in front of her.
“Uhehe~ Thank you Cleon-sama~”
“Now. So? Tell me where you heard about that oracle loose. It’s you who sparked my curiosity.”
When Cleon spoke so calmly, Dryne opened the lid of the soju bottle and drank it inside with a small mouth-
Pooh! And exhaled an alcohol-tinged breath.
“…I read it in a book. Even if it’s a history book… It’s not that old. My favorite war history… The Great War of the Empire…”
“…Empire.”
Cleon felt as if the fog in her head was slowly dispelling the moment the word empire came out of her mouth her.
Earlier, when he heard the word Oracleus for the first time, something continued to react in Cleon’s chest and head her.
However, he could n’t tell if it was really his or someone else’s.
“In the Great War of the Empire, the name Oracle Ruth came out…? Who was famous?”
Illenu, too, frowns at Drye as she watches her steaming, while Drye laughs and talks.
“It’s a black giant. A black giant. The Demonic Sword Emperor of the Empire, who was the top class bastard on the continent. One of the four executives under him. A colleague of Poltuk, whom Cleon-nim subdued some time ago. “
She covers her own face with her hands while saying that. Whom is she impersonating?
“You know. The Berlin of conquest. The surname of that Berlin is ‘Oracle’. The Berlin Oracle Ruth.”
“Berlin!?”
Then, Pamela, having heard the name Lynne of the bay Draine put in her mouth her, sees Drayne as she jumps up from her seat.
“Pamela?”
Seeing Pamela react without having time to clear her head, Pamela hesitates a little, then puts it in her mouth her.
“…Berlin is my little brother…!”
Then, with a shocked expression, she opened her mouth.
