Academy Light Attribute Vampire

54 – Cat Hand

“Hmm.. How is this place?! No, not that, since when…”

– Hurrying.

Anyone can see that he looks like a child caught doing bad things.

‘… Isn’t it?’

I can’t believe that the fairy who was sleeping in my holy sword got stuck with Elena,

I want to believe that this is not an NTR development.

“…Elena, just in case.”

“Ah. Ah yes! Lai! Just remembered what you asked me the other day!”

Looks like he’s talking clearly to anyone…

By the way, I asked you the other day… By any chance.

“…About the glyph?”

“Yes! In case you don’t know, could you show me one more time?”

… First of all, it’s not too late to talk about the Holy Sword Fairy later.

-Suck.

I stretched out my right arm and lifted her sleeve lightly.

The pattern on the wrist was revealed.

“Hmm…”

Chuck.

Elena naturally approached her, grabbed her wrist, and stared at her intently.

“Sniff sniff.”

‘No, why do you smell…’

Elena’s breath tickled her wrist.

“… It tickles me.”

“Ah..Mi.. Sorry! I stopped without realizing it.”

At this level, wouldn’t it be that he’s not an elf, but a dog beast?

“So, did you remember?”

“…Yeah. I’m sure. This is…”

No way…

‘Stay by my side now! Shall I introduce you?’ Wouldn’t it sound the same…?

If the Holy Sword Fairy really goes to Elena at this rate,

The whereabouts of the quest become obscure.

Because the ‘memory of the sword’ I obtained the other day was of great help to me,

The number of cases I want to avoid as much as possible…

Let’s wait for Elena’s mouth to open with anxious eyes.

“… This. It smells like my hometown.”

“Hometown…?”

“Yes, the forest of the elves… Among them, the faint smell of the world tree.

I’ve only been there once when I was young, but I still remember it vividly because it left a deep impression on me.”

“…Wasn’t it too late for me to remember it vividly?”

“…If you think about it that way, isn’t it strange that your wrist smells like an elven forest?”

I have nothing to say.

Anyway, the forest of elves…

Since it was Elena’s words and not anyone else’s, it must be highly reliable information.

By the way.

‘Wait.’

Then, if the fairy of the holy sword is in the forest of the elves,

What the hell was the conversation with Elena a while ago…

… First of all, it won’t be a harm to Elena.

If there was an ominous energy, Elena would have noticed it first.

“I’m just kidding, thanks Elena. I think she got some clues about her.”

“…Yeah. I’d like to be more helpful…”

And now that I think about it,

In the quest contents, it was stated that it was ‘rescue of ??＞’.

Does that mean that something is in danger…?

…The forest of the elves.

Elves are a very closed race.

Among them, the Elven Forest with the World Tree, which can be said to be the capital of the Elves,

The security system is so strict that it is difficult for outsiders to enter.

Originally, with the help of Elena, a member of the royal family, it would be easy to get there, but…

“…”

To the extent that Elena is no different from being expelled from the royal family,

She has no power.

Of course, it doesn’t matter how much you go back alone,

It must be difficult to accompany an outsider.

No matter how meritocratic the idea is, it’s too much.

‘… Well, that doesn’t mean there aren’t any breakthroughs at all.’

Fortunately, there is a very strong helper related to the holy sword.

At least Veronica, there must be some contact with the elves.

“No, it’s late by the way. How long are you going to practice?”

“Ah..! It’s already time like this. I have to finish here today too.”

“Then let’s go eat together, I’ll buy it for you.”

“You don’t have to… hehehe.”

Unlike words, I go out to town with Elena, who is frank with her body, and have dinner.

“Mung-gong-mung-nyeong.”

“… Eat slowly.”

After lightly chatting about the current situation at a cafe.

She returned to the dormitory, talked to Adela on the phone, and went to bed.

**

A dark alleyway.

A doll in a robe was moving her steps toward a pub in a corner.

Another one.

– With my daughter.

A few small tables and a counter.

And a small pub with only one bartender in a white-haired suit.

“… Welcome.”

In the store where you can’t find customers,

Only the faint jazz music and the soft sound of an old man wiping a cup resonated.

Puffed up.

“…What kind of business did you call me this time?”

“Please take off your robe first.”

“I know who it is anyway…”

Poof.

Let’s take off the robe,

The figure of a woman with wavy long black hair and red eyes with a sense of bewitching was revealed.

“You should also show the pattern.”

“… Annoying.”

A vampire woman pulled back her robe to show the bartender her collarbone.

In the black fox-shaped pattern,

From noble mtl dot com

An ominous energy was leaking out.

“…The identity of ‘Burimi’ has been confirmed.”

“Okay, pass on the order.”

“Okay.”

The old man gently put down the cup he was polishing, then turned and headed for the display.

Pressing the corner of the display stand where various types of alcohol are placed.

Click.

-Kiik.

The display stand opened outward like a door, revealing a safe hidden inside.

-Kiririk. Kirik.

For a while, only the sound of an old man turning the dial on the safe could be heard inside the pub.

And after a while.

-Clap.

As soon as the door of the safe opened, a scroll was brought out.

“Here it is.”

“… What is the age, how old-fashioned methods are still used.”

“You know there’s also a security problem, right?”

“Well… That’s what it says. So?”

Poof.

“… The destination this time is the forest of the elves. Since the work on the site has already been completed to some extent,

Mr. Burimi is ordered to wait on site and prepare for any unforeseen circumstances.”

“Hmm…”

The woman who had been reading the scroll for a while while listening to the old man’s story opened her mouth.

“…It’s no big deal.”

“But it’s not such a simple task to leave it to the lower end.”

“Okay, then when should we start?”

“Because there is time for the work to be completed,

There’s no need to make suspicious movements before that.”

After one month,

We will arrange for you to enter the Elven Forest.

– Dalgrak.

“Yeah..?”

The woman took a sip of the cocktail the old man gave her and continued.

“… A month is quite a while.”

“Yes. I was wondering if you have something to prepare in the meantime.”

“Prepare what…”

Kaaak-!

In the robe.

From within the woman’s body, a sound like a roaring beast emanates.

“…It always happens.”

**

The next day.

After school.

I would like to take action on the analysis and statistics circle of the gate,

As soon as class was over, I went to Professor Bergen’s office.

“So.”

The smell of cigarettes.

I’d believe it if I said it was a smoking room, not a teacher’s room.

“…Do you want me to check the performance check report?”

“Yes. It’s not that difficult for a professor.”

“It’s not difficult, but it’s not even necessary.”

Bingle,

Professor Bergen’s eyes became serious as he turned the chair around.

“… It’s also something that students can’t do.”

As if he was plotting something again,

Professor Bergen’s sharp eyes are directed at me.

‘… I thought I’d be somewhat suspicious.’

Still, in order to solve this case the easiest way, we need Professor Bergen’s help.

I don’t know why, but since you seem to feel a debt to me, it might be easier to ask.

“… It’s not illegal, so can’t you do it as if you’re doing a favor of a cute disciple?”

“You…”

-Ha.

“…Once I got it, you’re not the kind of person who would come to the teachers’ room like this for nothing.”

“Thank you.”

“So let’s say that’s all right… You’re probably with the four Sun Department guild masters…”

Jumping.

“…Berzen! I kept telling you not to smoke in the teachers’ office…!”

Awkward.

Professor Rina, who had suddenly opened the door and came in, found me through the partition,

The stance changed at a speed faster than light.

“…What’s wrong with student Rai in the office?”

‘…Professor.’

Even Professor Bergen looks at Professor Rina with pity.

“…I just wanted to leave because I had something to talk to Professor Bergen about.”

“Wait, maybe you’re going to become Professor Bergen’s apprentice…”

“… It’s not like that, don’t worry.”

I’ve said everything anyway,

Professor Rina, I’m a little awkward too, so let’s go out quickly.

“Then, please. Professor Bergen! Professor Lina is always working hard too.

Goodbye!”

“Wait… To answer my question…”

Boom!

I quickly closed the door and stepped out into the hallway.

The contents of the conversation between Professor Lina and Professor Bergen can be heard in the teacher’s office.

-Haa…

-… What are you asking for?’

-It’s not a big request, so don’t worry.

– Why don’t you say it that way?!

… It’s nice to see that they’re getting along well.

Whatever.

With this, a certain amount of countermeasures against the gate induction device have been completed.

Looking at it, it must be the narrow-eyed senior who is actually developing the gate induction device.

…Then,

In order to leak the technology naturally, they must have resorted to tricks.

If you do something with this, you will be caught by Bergen,

That said, it would be beneficial for us as well if we delayed our actions because we were paying attention to Bergen.

It’s vacation soon.

When it comes to vacations, club activities are inevitably reduced.

And if that happens, I can buy myself quite a bit of time.

Then what I have to do now is my growth as always.

And in order to grow…

‘The Holy Sword and the Forest of the Elves.’

“… Ha ha.”

I don’t know why you’re so busy.

I guess I’m using the phrase “I want to borrow a cat’s hand” At a time like this.
