The Vampire Is an Academy Honor Student

Chapter 040. hunting (1)

Just like yesterday, I woke up around sunset.

‘Are you okay?’

Even though I suddenly changed day and night, my condition was fine as if I had found a lifestyle that suited me.

Well, considering the original clan characteristics, this is correct.

It’s just that I’ve changed little by little to live with ordinary people.

After checking my watch, I took my robe and mask and went outside.

[Come to the clock tower in an hour.]

I sent my thoughts to number 33 and headed to the gymnasium.

‘He’s still doing that.’

I muttered to myself as I checked Karansis standing behind Yuriel training.

‘Are you aware that Uriel is being threatened with assassination?’

It’s not just one or two that I’ve even thought about.

The fact that the elves, who didn’t come out of Elvenheim until they visited them first, showed up at such an early timing.

The sudden assassination order came down to Yuriel, who was still only a first year cadet.

‘Are these two the only ones who know the reason?’

Gunne and Sigrun.

There were only more reasons to catch Gunne.

Because you need to know why.

‘Of course, the quality of the information seems to be better in Sigrun.’

You can’t catch a high elf and ask him, can you?

It has no options.

“Are the competitions going well?”

On the way, I briefly checked the poster. Familiar names were lined up on the list of dropouts.

“As expected, the Empire is at a high level.”

Unfortunately, most of the cadets except for Uriel have already been eliminated.

At least, Uriel was showing the dignity of being number one in the grade.

8 wins in 8 matches until the 2nd day.

In terms of points, they were currently in first place alone.

‘That’s it.’

Fortunately, it seems that external factors did not affect the competition.

After watching the training for a little longer, I went outside.

“… … .”

After moving to a deserted place, I put on my robe and mask and headed for the top of the clock tower.

Number 33 was waiting there.

After looking around for a moment to make sure no one was watching, he opened his mouth.

“report.”

“yes. First of all, the movements of the Dark Elves have not yet been seen.”

no movement?

“Are you saying there is no damage even after dying like that?”

“It is not a feeling. It seems that they simply decided that it was not a stage to care about yet.”

“is it.”

Well, since I’m in the middle of another operation right now, I wouldn’t want to move my butt that lightly.

“There was definitely a reaction.”

That is, the method was not wrong.

but.

“It’s just that it wasn’t enough.”

“yes.”

If he hadn’t been alarmed by the fact that he had died that much.

“Then, let’s make today just twice as much as yesterday.”

“yes. road.”

Hiding in the darkness, I went out to find the killers who started their activities.

The night streets of the empire began to be stained with blood.

* * *

Quaang!

“again.”

Gunne, who hit the table, said in a sad voice.

Number 2, who was reporting to the thick demonic air he spewed out, shook his chin.

“Assassination… . It failed.”

“why.”

“S, there was an attacker.”

“next.”

“Most of the killers were killed by the attacker who appeared wearing a mask… .”

fit… !

The two words did not lead to the end.

Because Gunne, in a rage, cut his throat before he could finish his speech.

“The wormy bastards.”

Kwajik!!

From noble mtl dot com

He stepped on the head of No. 2 that had rolled to his feet, crushed it, and spit it out like chewing.

How could so many be swept away by one person overnight?

‘Everyone should be able to do basic stealth tricks… !’

Then, no matter how strong the opponent is, shouldn’t it be possible to shake it off?

“… Or is it that the opponent was so strong that even that was impossible?”

In fact, the odds are higher this way.

They wouldn’t have died because they wanted to die.

“Whoa… .”

I don’t think this would have happened if Mine or members (Dark Elves) had been used from the beginning.

what has already happened anyway.

Since nothing can be turned into belated regrets, Gunne quickly calmed down his excitement.

But that didn’t mean the anger was relieved.

It just pushed back when it exploded.

He said to the subordinate standing behind him like a ghost.

“Release the demons and the members. Be sure to catch him.”

“All right.”

“and… .”

Gunne closed his eyes and continued to speak, deep in thought.

“… … .”

This is something that wasn’t already in the estimate.

So it would be the right decision to think of the worst situation in advance.

I think it’s a near 0% chance, but there’s what if.

‘If you can’t deal with them… .’

If that’s the case, it’s a power that I really didn’t want to use, but I might have to borrow a hand.

“Please contact Graam.”

“… To that savage warrior?”

“Just in case.”

He is an orc warrior who crossed the borders of the Empire with a messenger a few days ago.

It is said that the individual’s power is right in front of the Master, so it is the strongest among the powers currently possessed.

‘Of course, I’m not good at killing people.’

The power is ignorantly strong, but it does not know how to hide its presence.

In addition, he had not used him until now because he did not want to lend a hand to the orc.

However, it became difficult to build self-esteem when the situation was like this.

“I will go right now.”

“… … .”

The men leave to send a message to Graham.

In the cabin left alone, Gunne groaned in a cold voice.

“I don’t know what kind of guy he is.”

If you can capture it alive.

He said he would fully accept the price for borrowing the hand of an orc.

“I will not die in peace.”

* * *

“hmm?”

The streets of the empire covered in thick darkness.

Feeling the extremely refined gaze, I stopped for a moment and expanded my senses.

one two, … seven.

After midnight, I was able to notice those following me with my keen senses.

“… … .”

As a result, the corners of the lower lip slightly rose.

“I finally asked.”

Acting as if I hadn’t noticed anything, I walked along the winding alley.

When it came in to a certain depth, it accelerated explosively.

“… !!”

tat tat tat!!

I feel that the surprised opponents urgently speed up and chase after them.

I don’t even think about hiding my presence anymore, probably because I thought I was caught anyway.

‘under.’

He looks like he’s worried about missing a nimble rabbit.

Conversely, laughter leaked out at the bold move that they did not even think that they would be bitten.

‘I’m mistaken.’

Who was being hunted, they still did not know.

‘I’ll tell you smartly.’

Even if it fell once.

Early on, as long as the sun went down, ‘we’ were always the rulers.

* * *

It was only after reaching a dead end that the opponent stopped.

The member who caught up soon opened his mouth after seeing the opponent facing the dead end.

“Is it you?”

“… … .”

“It’s pretty fast. I knew for sure from this why the killers were so helpless.”

“… … .”

Perhaps because he was scared, the other party did not respond.

I was somewhat wary because they slaughtered the killer on this side in two nights.

‘Are you saying it was only this much of an enemy?’

Only the speed was fast, but the inside was empty.

Aren’t you afraid of being surrounded and unable to do anything?

After making a quick decision, he drew his sword.

“… However, it seems that it was not enough to be cocky.”

If it was at this level, it would have been okay to go out alone without being accompanied by demons.

“Don’t kill me now. … huh?”

At that time, a reaction appeared from the opponent who had been still.

I wanted to take something out of my arms.

Paang!!!

For a moment, he was a blue line in the air.

“one.”

The wind blew up late.

And, there is one Mine whose head explodes while climbing the wall.

“… ah?”

The member’s head was broken and he could not react.

This is because cognitive dissonance came to work that far exceeded my expectations.

Paang!!!

“two.”

“… !!”

Now he shuddered and barely came to his senses.

Whoops!

I gave strength to the sword that I almost dropped.

Just before rushing forward, spewing demonic energy.

“Such a dog… !”

“three.”

Paang!!

The dagger that passed by my ear stopped my stride.

The dagger pierced the head of the demon who was approaching from behind, but remained strong and stuck into the old wall.

“ah.”

With a single exclamation, the blood drained from all over his body.

It was because the attack realized the vast gap with the opponent.

“Do you still think I ran away?”

“… !!”

The corner of the eyes inside the opponent’s mask curves in a half-moon shape.

Goosebumps all over his body at the relaxed look.

‘I got hit… !’

He didn’t run away, he was lured out.

In order to kill all the demons, including this side, by drawing them to the dead end as much as possible.

“All attack!”

I threw all the demons as bait and desperately hid myself in the darkness.

‘I have to inform you!’

The moment he realized that all of this was an opponent’s trap, he ran away without looking back.

“Quaaagh!”

“Kill, kill!”

Ignoring the screams of the demons behind me, I just looked ahead and ran.

“omg! omg!!”

how long has it been like that

By the time we’ve almost reached one of the hideouts only the members know about.

‘… Did I bully you?’

Even though I have expanded my senses widely, I can’t feel the presence of the opponent who has been frighteningly chasing.

“Whoa.”

At the same time as the tension was relieved, the strength in my legs was relaxed and I almost collapsed.

I wiped the sweat off my forehead.

And belatedly, I noticed that my whole body was wet with a cold sweat.

‘Still, I lived.’

My mind and body were all in tatters, but I went inside thinking that that was all I had to deal with.

however.

“uh?”

I smell blood inside.

The shaking that had stopped at this started again.

Could it be that you ran through that street and waited?

“No way… .”

does not exist.

The words reached the end of his throat and went in as soon as he saw the scenery inside.

“ha ha ha… ”

Bloody inside.

In the middle of it stands a man wearing a fox mask.

The moment our gaze met the eyes behind the mask, I felt an indescribable deep darkness.

The darkness, which had always been cozy, was now just scary.

the man said

“You thought the darkness was on your side, right?”

When he stretches out his hand, the blood on the floor rises into the air.

“But what?”

“Ah, ah, ah… .”

In extreme fear, the ability to speak has lost its function.

“Your opponent is bad.”

Paaa… !

Waves of fresh blood shoot out.

The last scene the Dark Elves saw was blood dripping in the air in the shape of a sharp awl.

* * *

I couldn’t stand the second time, but from the second night, I could see the appearances of demons and dark elves.

I hid in the dark and pursued them relentlessly.

The night of the 4th day after the 3rd day passed like that.

“Sah, save me… !”

Limping on his severed leg, he begged like a Dark Elf begging.

Chew!

“Off, ugh… .”

I cut the guy’s head with a single knife and looked around.

quiet space.

Just looking at it, it looks like nothing.

However, as I expanded my senses, I could feel the presence of demons and dark elves everywhere.

‘Somehow he desperately ran away.’

In the end, he died, but he had a corner to believe in his own way.

“… … .”

I gave up my presence and quietly set foot in Gunne’s stronghold.
