“It’s all because you quarreled.”

“Did I bet? There’s something wrong. Wouldn’t I rather be on the side of getting into a fight?”

“……Anyway, Rudrick doesn’t like us fighting.”

The four of them were kicked out by Rudrick’s firm decree.

Fortunately, it was almost time to go to sleep, so no one was walking around the corridors of the villa. Thanks to this, there was no need to worry about attracting attention even when talking loudly, but after being kicked out into the hallway, the four of them stood together looking for something to say to each other.

First of all, they succeeded in achieving their intended purpose, not only did they inform Rudrick of this fact, they even decided in what order they would be with Rudrick.

Now that all the reasons for the four of them to be together were gone, Rasil spoke first.

“Then, should we break up now? I think we’ve done everything we need to do.”

“That would be nice.”

Eileen agreed.

Anyway, unlike the three people who usually have enemies in the capital, she hastily flew from the Principality of Nord to the moving magic circle. And that too without any word from his subordinates.

I had to go back to the principality, which would have been in trouble by now, and carry out my duties as a grand duke.

As soon as the atmosphere became such a natural break, Arwen first changed back to his cat form.

A cat with silver fur and purple eyes that naturally draws attention. And Arwen calmly and casually waggled her tail and slid open the closed door of her paw with her paw, then she looked back and said,

“Then excuse me first.”

Kick, thump.

Then, with a very natural and graceful gesture, she stepped through the crack in the open door and closed it again.

“……Envy.”

Racille couldn’t hide her feelings, and let out a grumbling full of her envy.

And she didn’t say it out of her mouth like she did, but Eileen and Sylphia were thinking the same thing.

Eileen and Rasil, who have built a wall with magic, are not ordinary vampires, and do not have the ability to use high-level transformation magic like Jinjo and Arwen, the ancestors of all vampires.

Sylpheus, who can use magic as naturally as a dragon, like breathing. Transformation magic wasn’t a problem, but there was no cause like Arwen.

“……I should have just said that I also regressed from the beginning.”

“Rudrick should have noticed by now.”

“That’s right. Rudrick isn’t an idiot, and he must have noticed to some extent. But it’s too late to reveal it now. I should have just revealed it from the beginning.”

At Eileen’s question, Sylphea muttered like a grumble.

Judging from the series of events that have taken place, it was clear that Ludrick was aware of the general situation to some extent.

However, Sylphia, who entered her imperial palace legally, did not have to remain unnoticed like Arwen.

In other words, there was not enough justification to live in Rudrick’s room pretending to be a pet.

If you say yes now, it’s good if you don’t treat me like a pervert.

It was a bittersweet night.

2.

The atmosphere in the room today was a little different from usual.

Usually, Arwen, who had gradually adapted to this life to some extent, kept a reasonable distance from Rudrick and maintained a close, yet subtle relationship.

A bit different from usual, there was a blatantly awkward atmosphere.

“…….”

“…….”

While both Rudric and Arwen remained silent, their behavior was slightly different.

Arwen was keeping an eye on Rudrick, and Rudrick seemed to be sitting with his back on the bed, thinking hard about something.

Arwen didn’t have the courage to break the silence, so it took a while for Arwen to hold her breath and look at her.

“Yes, Arwen.”

First, Rudrick broke the heavy silence.

“……Did you call?”

“I have a question.”

“It’s a big deal. Didn’t you say you were sleeping? What were you worrying about earlier?”

“It’s not so grandiose that it’s a concern…”

Rudrick tapped the seat next to the bed with the blanket on it, as if telling him to sit down. As soon as Arwen jumped up on her bed and sat down next to her, Rudrick unconsciously stroked Arwen’s head and opened her mouth.

“Why are you doing this?”

“……I don’t know what that means.”

“No, I just don’t understand.”

Rudrick inadvertently shrugged. And, after a moment of hesitant trembling, a full fastball flew toward his body.

“You weren’t the only one who regressed, were you? The other four were all the same.”

“…….”

Arwen flinched.

This is Rudrick, it was a fact he knew from the beginning due to the mysterious system message that first came to his mind. If it wasn’t for that, he would have been taken aback by the reasonless kindness and favor towards him for a while, but unless he was completely ignorant, he would have intuitively noticed it at this point.

There is also a precedent called Arwen.

Is it because you know that fact, or is it because of the story that everyone has already gathered together.

Arwen, who was hesitant, affirmed with a quiet nod of her head.

“As expected.”

From noble mtl dot com

Muttered Rudric.

Anyway, a reconfirmation that clearly confirms the facts you already know, nothing more, nothing less. He doesn’t need to raise any suspicion.

As such, it was essential to accompany the proper acting.

“……It’s the same for all five of us. Including me, the other four too.”

“But even so, there is one thing I still don’t understand.”

“What don’t you understand?”

“Why do you guys like me?”

As for this question, Rudrick was also sincere.

I couldn’t even guess why he was so impatient because he couldn’t cling to himself all at once until he returned. Because something happened in the past before the great joint regression.

It wasn’t a story like a cartoon or novel that draws handsome men and insists that they are ordinary.

Even when Rudrick saw it, his face was a bit far from normal. Some may think that he is unlucky, but he can’t really insist that it’s not like that when he excludes selfishness and looks at it as conservatively as possible.

It’s just that it’s not a normal face, it’s far from a handsome face that makes your eyes go round.

‘Why?’

It was an unresolved question that Rudrick had been harboring all along.

“I’d understand if I looked like DiCaprio’s Leeds days. No matter how much I think about it, my face isn’t quite like that?”

“Haa…”

Arwen let out a sigh before Rudrick finished speaking.

Also, aside from using a metaphor that only she knew the meaning of, and no one knew why, Rudrick was completely wrong in her point of view.

Arwen’s taste was bitter again.

The past she built up with Rudrick before returning is a memory she has alone that no one remembers.

It’s just a faded past that was swept away and buried by the Sato of time.

As soon as she realized that fact, a corner of her heart ached. Right now, in front of her eyes, Rudrick was alive and well, but at the same time, she knew nothing about her and the memories she had accumulated.

At first, I thought I was grateful for the fact that I had returned to the past, and I cried out the cursed name of the god.

“……You still don’t know. What happened in the past. So it’s not strange that you feel burdened.”

“Of course I don’t know. It’s you who returned, not me. Even the great wizard Ludrick from the future doesn’t know what happened before the return.”

“Then let’s get to know each other.”

Along with Arwen’s muttering, her head, which enjoyed stroking her hair, turned around and was staring at Rudrick.

Zaan, who created a mysterious atmosphere, was staring at Rudrick.

At the same time.

Arwen, who hadn’t drunk a single drop of blood in the four days that Rudric was away, was feeling hungry.

Her long-forgotten hunger, which happened after her return, flared up again when her situation calmed down, and she demanded blood from Arwen.

If it were another vampire, it wouldn’t be strange if it attacked the humans around it the moment it felt the vampiric urge. That was the reason why vampires and humans couldn’t live in harmony with each other.

Arwen is not an ordinary vampire, she is the ancestor of her family and her superior race, the true ancestor.

Arwen, who would not have even thought of trying, immediately put her idea into action.

“Huh?”

At the same time as Rudrick made a puzzled expression at the unusual atmosphere, Arwen, whose magic had been released, returned to human form.

Her silver hair, neatly tied back and flowing forward, glistened in the magic stone light, and a light blush appeared on her face, Arwen said.

“… Come to think of it, she hasn’t had anything to drink for four days.”

Thanks to the last unbroken thread of reason, I was able to realize the feeling that what I said was embarrassing was actually shameful.

“……That feels a little strange, but can’t we just cut her finger? Like on her arm.”

“……Won’t you get used to it after experiencing it?”

Sucking blood from the nape of the neck is an unpleasant yet subtle sensation that is difficult to describe.

Rudrick frowned, but his sweet breath tickled his ears. And at the same time, the harsh scenes and atmosphere that can only be misunderstood are created.

Arwen’s fangs, which had buried their face in the nape of her neck almost as if hugging her, slowly dug into the nape of her neck.
