Chapter 255: Heaven-sent child of darkness<hr>


    I asked Caim-san to exin about vampires.


    "Vampires are an immortal race that reigns supreme among the subraces"


    Eh? A higher species? Does that mean they are stronger than Lily and the others?


    "No way~"


    "Are you trying to fight me!"


    The vampire girl is making a lot of noise, but Caim-san continues to exin.


    "Of course. A vampire that has not evolved is not a marvel, but when it evolves, it bes a monster that has no problem with being a demon king. I can''t beat it either, even if I use all my forbidden spells, summoned beasts and trump cards"


    H, How much...


    "Huhuh. How about it! Do you understand how great I am!" "Ah. I understand now that you are weak"


    "Y, You! C, Cry! I''ll make you cry! Let''s duel!"


    "All right"


    So we dueled. However, I''m still in despena and can''t even hold a weapon. That''s not good.


    A few minutester...the little vampire girl falls to the ground. I''m the winner. Ion gives her opinion.


    "I could feel the desperation with which she tried to bite Takuto-san"


    And Caim-san and Bran give their thoughts.


    "It''s inevitable that vampires want blood. They''re bloodsuckers"


    "It was a very funny duel to watch"


    To be honest, she just flew through the air and tried to bite me. I just kept dodging and the little vampire was out of strength and is now lying on the ground.


    And the little vampire girl starts to cry.


    "Uh...it''s terrible...it''s too much..."


    I''m aplete bad guy...well, I was amused, so I apologize.


    "It was bad...I''m sorry"


    "...Blood"


    Hmm? What?


    "Let me suck your blood! And you will be forgiven!"


    Eh...my vitality is low and I dont think its good to be sucked by a vampire...


    "Just a little! Just a little bit! Okay?"


    "Isn''t it dangerous if I have no vitality?"


    Then Caim-san exins.


    "If it''s a strong vampire, you''ll be in danger of bing a dependent, but if it''s a weak vampire, it''s no different than having your blood sucked by a bat. If you want, I can do it"


    "I don''t want to suck the blood of a pervert like you!"


    It seems that it''s been decided that Caim-san is a pervert.


    "Everything we''ve done so far will be undone, please!"


    Well, if it''ll make things even...


    "All right...is my arm fine?"


    "Ideally, I''d like your neck, but that''s okay!"


    No, not my neck...and then she bites me and sucks my blood.


    "Nu!? Th, This is!? Chiu~~~"


    Wait a minute! That''s too much! It''s too much! Ah, I''m unconscious...


    "It''s too much!"


    "Ouch!? Wh, What are you doing? I was just about to..."


    Ion stopped her, but I copsed. Lily and the others rush towards me and turn their hostility towards the young vampire girl.


    "Wa, Wait! Calm down! I''m sorry I sucked too much!"


    I was in a bad condition, but I managed to recover.


    "I''m sorry...it''s been a long time since I''ve had human blood and it was the best I''ve ever tasted, so I sucked too much"


    "Hmm? So you''ve been here all this time?"


    "Yes"


    Wait a minute, how long has that been going on?


    "I don''t know, but I know when Ex Machina was on the rampage"


    We all look around at each other. This little vampire girl...she''s pretty bad.


    "Have you been alone all this time?"


    "Not all the time. I used to live outside, but my parents put a special seal on this ce to protect me from the human vampire hunters"


    What they did to save their daughter''s life ended up making her lonely for the rest of her life...tough.


    "Did you ever think of going out?"


    "I tried to get out, but I couldn''t break the seal on the block..."


    You''d better tell your daughter the answer...parents.


    "So I am grateful to you for letting me suck your blood and for your promise to my parents. I''ll make a contract with you!"


    Ah, so that''s how it''s going to go.


    "But to make a contract with her, you need a dark magic stone. You got a dark stone from Skull Orthros, didn''t you?"


    You know a lot, don''t you...this girl? I''m going to create it and make a contract, but I need a name first.


    "A name...a scary, pretty name, please!"


    What kind of name? I''ll have to think about it though...chaos seems like it would be too much...it''s amon word...I''ve got an idea. I''ll make a suggestion.


    "How about Sephone?"


    I got it from Persephone, the Greek goddess of the underworld and the wife of Hades.


    "Mmm! Sephone...okay! My name is Sephone! I am the demon king, ruler of night and darkness! What do you think? Is that clear?"


    I guess the point is, when you call yourself the demon king, you have to be certain...


    "I think it''s decided"


    After all, it''s the name of the goddess of the underworld that transcends the demon king.


    "I see! Well then, it''s settled! From now on, you may call me Sephone! Then let''s make a contract!"


    I took out the dark magic stone I had made and made a contract with Sephone.


    You made a contract with the vampire Sephone


    That''s it. There are now 7 summoned beasts remaining that I can summon. Let''s check the status.<hr>


    <b><i>Name Sephone Vampire Lv1</i></b>


    Vitality 18


    Magic Power 20


    Strength 14


    Defense 10


    Agility 10


    Dexterity 20


    <b><i>Skills</i></b>


    Bloodsucking Lv10


    Night Vision Lv10


    Shadow Hiding Lv10


    Shadow Summoning Lv10


    Stealth Lv10


    Darkness Magic Lv1


    Night Immortality Lv10<hr>


    A rival to Nowa has appeared. The focus is on Night Immortality. It''s a skill that makes her immortal, probably only at night. ording to Sephone, zombies also have night immortality, but Sephone says it''s useless even if you defeat them with purification or sacred magic. That''s the higher species.


    And she beats me to darkness magic. If you ask Sephone, the magic she can use isNightmareandCurse.


    Nightmare is a magic that puts you to sleep and deals damage during that time. It seems that curse is a magic that puts the opponent in a cursed state.


    The only way to attack is through bloodsucking, to be honest, but...this is going to be a challenge.


    "I can finally go outside with this!"


    Caim-san interrupted the rejoicing Sephone.


    "I''m sorry, but I''m going to have to go talk to His Majesty King Gran. Vampires are that much"


    "Im busy enjoying my life outside! Wouldn''t it be easier if you told it?"


    "It''s not that simple, you know. I''m sorry, but I''m going to have to force you toe"


    "...You''re going to give up looking inside a woman''s skirt in your cat form?"


    The air suddenly turned cold.


    "I, I don''t know what you''re talking about~. Can you doubt me even though there is no evidence?"


    "If you need proof, take a look at the video crystals installed in this cave"


    "Ii!? W, Wait!?"


    The image is projected. I didn''t even know there was such an item. When I asked Sephone, it seems that her parents installed it to confirm the intruder.


    The most important part of the video was a cat watching Lily and her friends from below as they descended. There was also a peek inside the skirt from behind Lily who supported me. This is the proof.


    "Brass-san, please catch the current offender"


    "Right. I''ll turn him in to Princess Sarah"


    "Wait a minute! It''s a fake! It''s a trap!"


    But no one believes him. Not even the victims.


    You''re disgusting!


    Having lost the trust of Lily and the others, Caim-san turned white and was taken away.


    However, Caim-san was not the only one who was angered. When we came out of the basement, I found Ruin-san, Mel and the others.


    Apparently, I was so absorbed in the puzzle that I didn''t notice the reply to my email. And when I went down to the basement, I locked the door, so they couldn''t get to the basement.


    As a result, they were pissed off...and I talked to King Gran about Sephone, but nothing came of it. Apparently, vampires exist, unlike Ix, so the problem didn''t get that big. I was told to take responsibility for the summoned beast.


    Princess Sarah was very angry with Brass and the others. She said that Brass and the others would be in training for a while. I''ve done a bad thing.


    Princess Sarah gave Caim-san a look of absolute zero, but she overlooked it. The reason was Nephi-san and Aura-san who were there.


    "Grandmaster, who abandoned his work without permission, will have to do all of our work for us"


    "Wait!? It''s impossible!"


    "I won''t listen to your excuses. You''ll have to taste how hard we''ve worked!"


    Caim-san, who was forced to do the work, had to go through work hell for a while.
