Chapter 86

Vampire Princess and Conflict

Translated by AmaLynne

「Hwahahahahaha! Hahahahahahaha! I guess the Demon Army needs me! I know you do, I know you do, now kick the crap out of those humans! Hahahahahahaha!」

「…What a simple man.」

「W-Well…」

I stirred him up a bit and this is what I got.

I think he just wanted to be bothered, didn’t he?

「I understand that he was shocked to lose, but come on…」

Vinel-san said that it would be troublesome to do this kind of thing every time Luz-san loses in the future, so Luz-san will be placed in a place where the top level of the Twelve Holy Apostles is unlikely to be there as much as possible.

Incidentally, Vinel-san took Fleuretia-sama, who tried to help Luz-san, somewhere. I don’t know the rest.

According to what I heard, it was Hassad the『Giant Bow』, the fifth in the hierarchy of the Twelve Holy Apostles, who defeated Luz-san and nearly killed him.

「Well…That guy is certainly not a good match for Luz-san. Sakura-kun or Lean might be able to beat him with a reasonable margin, but…」

「I don’t know, okay? The fifth in the hierarchy, right? I heard that the fifth rank and above in the Twelve Holy Apostles is so strong that it is said that the sixth rank is the dividing line.」

「Huh, right. I don’t remember much either…」

The Twelve Apostles are all the ones who alternately hurt Yomi.

Kill them all. Regret that you were born. Especially Noin and Edith, I will kill them no matter what.

「Hahahahahaha! Let’s charge!」

「Ah, he charged…Luz-san is.」

「Hey…why is the commander charging!? You’re supposed to be in command!」

「But Lean is also charging, isn’t she?」

Yomi, don’t make any unnecessary jokes.

※※※

Three days have passed since then.

Vinel-san face is strangely glowing, Fleuretia-san face is shaggy, and many other things have happened, but somehow we managed to get our vacation back.

I have to go back to the battlefield in a week, but for now, I am living a peaceful life with Yomi…but I have to say…

I have a very bad problem these days.

That is…

「Hey Lean, look! Something is going on over there! Let’s go over there!」

「Fuee…!? Ah, Y-Yomi, h-hand…!」

「? What’s wrong with your hand? …Ah, did it hurt? I’m careful about hand blistering and force…」

「U-Uh…N-No, I was just surprised because you suddenly pulled me in…」

「Really? Then let’s go!」

「Uh-huh…」

I hope you can understand.

I’ve been acting strange lately. If it had been before, I would have just held hands with Yomi, or at least almost blown a nosebleed.

Now I can already feel my heart racing, my face turning red, and my breathing becoming ragged.

I’ve been like this ever since the fight with Fleuretia-sama.

For some reason, I can’t seem to have a good conversation, skinship, and all the other things I used to be able to do normally with Yomi.

I’m so nervous about Yomi’s every move, I can’t even look at her face properly.

「……an. Lean!」

「……He?」

「Geez…what’s wrong?」

「Ah, sorry. I’m just zoned out and…I…was…」

Yomi looked me in the face…peering into my…」

「F-Face! Y-Your face is so close!」

「Eh, really? I’m sorry…but, Lean, you’ve been acting strange lately. Is something wrong?」

Did something happen? …I wonder.

Come to think of it, why am I so conscious of Yomi?

『Don’t worry. I’ll protect Lean.』

「hggnnn~~~~~~!!!」

「Eh? Lean, what’s wrong!? Hey, where are you going!?」

※※※

I jumped into the alleyway without a second thought and slumped down.

……Aaahhhh, geeeeeezzzzzzzz!!! Now I remember!!!!!

Geez, yes! After the incident with Fleuretia-sama was over…I can’t even look at Yomi properly anymore because I remember what happened!

Because…because…Yomi, who has always been so cute and adorable, says over her back, I’ll protect Lean…

It was so cool…! I really thought I was going to die…

Yes, that’s right. It was that gap that shot me in the heart!

Just being around the cute and cool Yomi made my heart rate explode and my whole body gets hot………that natural talent, really…!

Geez, I can’t……love……!

We had never been anything more than cuddly best friends, but that one incident broke the boundaries of that kind of relationship. …….

I thought if I left her alone she would come back, but the more I was with Yomi, the more I felt something for her. ……. I was already getting nervous just hearing her voice. …….

「Ahh…really, what should I do…」

※※※

「…I’m wondering if you could help me with this.」

「Why are you talking to me about this?」

I just happened to meet her.

The person I’m consulting with is the current sixth-ranked executive in the Demon Army,『Disaster General』Rain-san.

She joined the Demon Army quite recently…she’s more than 300 years old, but she is the oldest by far. I think she said she was 1,600 years old this year.

「So, I thought that Rain-san, who has lived through that much time, might be able to solve this kind of thing…」

「I’m telling you, we fairies are almost incapable of reproduction, so that kind of affair is not something I’m interested in.  And the next time you mention your age, I’ll blow you to the ends of the earth…hah. Well, if you’ve asked me this much, I’m at least willing to talk to you about it…so? What is your plan?」

「What do you mean?」

「You fell in love with Yomi, didn’t you? What do you want to do?」

「………」

………Hm~mm.

「This a love……is it?」

「Huh? …You, recently, said what happens when you’re with Yomi?」

「My heart rate spikes, my body becomes unusually hot, I feel like my nose is going to start bleeding, and in some cases, I can’t even breathe properly.」

「Once again, I hear symptoms of what I suspect is a serious illness… Well, I think it’s called lovesickness. I don’t know much about it myself.」

I see…

I knew it was me, Yomi…

「So what do you want to do? Wanna date? Do you want to give up your feelings? Do you want to keep your distance? Do you want to keep your feelings to yourself? Want a one-night stand?」

「No last one for now……Well, I don’t know……After all, I haven’t been in love with anyone for a relatively long time……」

「What’s a kid who hasn’t lived a hundredth of my life talking about?」

I’m at an age where I don’t want to think about it for a minute if I include past lives.

「Why? What do you want to do? Come on, tell me.」

「Uhh……Uhhh~~hhh……」

「Come on, come on, don’t be shy. Tell me how you feel! Come on! Hurry!」

「Um, Rain-san, aren’t you having a little fun?」

I wonder if I’m asking the wrong person for advice.

「I-I’m…that…with Yomi…」

「With Yomi!?」

「With…da…」

『The Four Demon Generals and Executives remaining in the territory! Can you hear me? It’s an emergency, come quickly!』

……………

「…Why that one, really… They call me at the most inopportune times, like this…!

「B-But she said it was an emergency, and it sounds like it’s a pretty urgent matter. Let’s forget about it for now and get going.」

「……Fine.」

※※※

「……Everyone’s here.」

In the usual meeting room, the remaining executives in the territory, eight in total, gathered.

And the Demon Lord looked quite impatient.

「So, Demon Lord, what’s the emergency?」

「In the battle at the Ferlin Plain, the fourth and fifth ranks of the Twelve Holy Apostles appeared. They defeated our army and are advancing on us……and……」

「Tiana, who tried to stop them, was killed.」
