The Vampire Is an Academy Honor Student

Chapter 028. chase (1)

My mouth was salivating like a starving person for several days at the tickling feeling of my fangs.

Although the situation and degree were different, it was similar to the feeling of being in danger of being killed by a demon.

‘… impulse?’

The moment you recognize it, your head becomes hot enough to feel dangerous and your body temperature rises.

thud! thud!

A heart beating dangerously loud.

The urge grew out of control.

But it never occurred to me that it was strange.

All miscellaneous thoughts were erased from my mind and my mind became clear.

All thoughts were directed towards one single purpose.

gulp. I thought as I swallowed the saliva in my mouth.

‘I want to drink.’

I want to drink that red blood.

“ha… .”

He let out a warm breath and lowered his head.

Right before you put that bloody finger in your mouth.

shoot!!

Noah turned on the faucet.

The water from the faucet washed away the blood from his fingers all at once.

At the same time, the urge that had dominated her body a moment ago disappeared as if it had been washed.

I woke up as if I had been covered with ice water.

“ah.”

The moment I came to my senses, a strong shock hit my head.

… What was I just trying to do?

“This crazy.”

“… … ?”

Noah covered his injured finger at my expression, which suddenly became violently contorted.

Of course, it wasn’t because of her that I reacted this way.

But I wasn’t in the mood to answer yes.

‘… Was it this side that changed?’

It’s only for a moment, but when I saw the blood on Noah’s finger, I thought it looked delicious.

I could think of only one thing that could be attributed to this sudden change.

A bunch of lights I saw in class today.

Originally, it had the effect of expanding Cale’s pulse as a wizard and strengthening his connection with the other world.

‘But because I’m not a wizard.’

So, the unknown energy that had lost its way seemed to have gone somewhere else.

straight blood.

The only thing I can think of is that the phenomenon a moment ago happened because the blood, which had been cloudy, had thickened.

Also, if you think about it, isn’t this lineage different from the power of the other world based on here?

It’s not strange to have a mechanism similar to magic.

‘… No, isn’t this a little bit?’

I don’t know because I don’t have too much information.

For now, judgment is postponed until later.

In the first place, the cause is not that important.

The important thing is that this confirms that our family can regain the ability they lost a long time ago.

‘Is it good?’

I’m not sure about that.

Of course, the thicker the blood, the stronger it will become.

However, it was clear that the side effects would become more severe.

Just like I almost couldn’t resist the urge a moment ago.

-are you okay?

“… … .”

I looked at Noah, who was waving a memo in front of me.

While she was conscious, she had come with a bandage on her injured finger.

“… you.”

Do you know what I was thinking when I saw myself a little while ago?

“… … ?”

Are you okay?

I couldn’t get any answer back to her asking that question with an expression that didn’t know anything.

* * *

In the end, the day of Müller’s jailbreak approached without an answer.

Fortunately, the urge to vampiric didn’t rise to the point where I couldn’t stand it.

It seems that this is the kind of urge you can get used to seeing that you are getting better.

‘This is fortunate.’

However, I haven’t tried making a follower through vampirism yet.

It was something that could lead to death, so there was no one to rush into.

And I really don’t know.

He’s fine now, but when he first saw Noah’s blood, he really couldn’t control himself.

Reason was helpless in the face of that powerful impulse.

It’s about this now, but I couldn’t figure out what would happen if the blood gradually thickened.

Could it really be that I become a blood-crazed vampire?

Wouldn’t it be like the case of some of our ancestors who couldn’t control their impulses and slaughtered countless people, ultimately bringing about the downfall of their clan?

“… You will know when you do it.”

after.

He sighed and muttered.

There is no one left to give you the answer. Whatever it is, it’s a problem that needs to be known at least once.

This time, you can catch Müller, experiment with him, and watch the progress.

After putting my thoughts together, I went straight back to the dorm.

I had already told Noah all about what I had to do today.

Fortunately, she didn’t ask why she was doing this.

Instead, after listening to the explanation, he stared at me and asked me something like this.

Is this something only you can do?

I don’t know what kind of thinking circuit this question came up with, but it was true that there was no one to ask for help besides her.

‘uh.’

‘… … .’

It was the first time she had ever been told that she needed someone, so she seemed satisfied with that alone.

After hearing the answer, it was clear from the corners of his mouth, which had turned round to a very slight degree.

“… To be humble.”

But it wasn’t that strange.

It may not be a big deal to others, but it may be worth more than a thousand gold to someone.

“I’m here.”

She turned her head from the garden at the sound of a voice behind her.

Then he looked up at him and asked.

-Go right away?

“hmm… .”

We know that Müller’s jailbreak is close to midnight.

It’s not a bad idea to go ahead and look around.

‘I’ve been to prison a few times.’

Even if it wasn’t because of Müller, there were often times when I was playing the game to go to the dungeon.

And I don’t forget what I’ve seen once, even years later.

It means that you have already memorized all the roads around it.

So rather than preparing, I wanted to move inconspicuously.

“Let’s go when it gets dark.”

* * *

The lowest level of the dungeon.

A disturbance appeared in front of the prison cell where the criminal Müller was imprisoned.

“Long time no see.”

“… … .”

“Have you made your decision?”

Same question in the same situation as back then. However, Müller’s reaction was quite different from then.

“… … .”

he raised his head

Then he spoke in a raspy voice full of metal.

“You must keep your promise.”

“promise? ah.”

Hwaran, who frowned for a moment, burst out laughing.

it’s a promise

Was it that he would not order anything after that if he only did what he asked for?

“Of course. Lord Ymir is not the kind of person who will speak lies.”

He doesn’t lie.

It just tells you less of the truth.

Hwaran also resembled the owner, so he didn’t bother to talk behind the scenes.

“… … .”

“Drink.”

Müller, who received the bottle from Hwaran, closed his eyes tightly.

It happened.

There is no turning back now.

Müller spat out a small curse and put the bottle in his hand into his mouth.

The response came a few minutes later.

Müller screamed at the sudden excruciating pain.

“Kwaaa!!”

A pain far beyond human endurance.

Unable to bear it, he rolled on the floor in tears.

Awesome! Wood deok!

Bones are twisted, and all joints in the body are bent in strange places.

In extreme pain, the pupils were turned upside down, and frothy saliva flowed out of his mouth.

“Ugh, ugh… .”

The screams gradually faded.

And then came the change.

Took. Took… .

Müller’s blonde hair falls one by one.

And in its place, black hair symbolizing demons grew.

Hwaran handed her a handkerchief and said.

“Congratulations on becoming a Mine.”

“ah.”

Müller suddenly came to his senses.

The pain that made my mind disappear before I knew it, and the whole body was filled with sticky energy.

‘… This?’

It was a power that was strangely unpleasant, but also stimulated desire.

Looking down at Müller with a confused expression, Hwaran said.

“That’s Magi.”

The clearest evidence of the loss of humanity.

“ah… .”

Tears flowed from Müller’s eyes.

Is it because of the pain of loss?

No, it wasn’t.

‘This is my body?’

This was because of the euphoria.

I could feel that I had become dozens of times stronger than before I acquired magic.

Hwaran ordered, looking down at Müller, who burst into madness suppressed by the overwhelming joy.

“Now do your thing.”

“… I will.”

“You just have to steal something and come to the place I told you about before.”

While Hwaran was cleaning up the prison’s remaining guards, Müller escaped the dungeon.

“It’s been a while since the moon.”

For a moment, Müller muttered to the outside air he had been drinking for the first time in five years.

He moved towards the royal capital.

and.

“Let’s go too.”

“… … .”

There were two figures chasing after him.

* * *

A lot has changed for me in the past month.

First of all, the poor body at the time of first possession has now completely transformed and has risen to the level of the original world.

Although his stamina was still slightly lacking, his strength and quickness were superior to those of the other cadets.

It wasn’t enough to catch up with Dante or the top cadets in the upper class.

When compared to those who never stopped training from a very young age, this makes no sense.

The growth rate was such that not only the cadets but also the instructors stuck out their tongues.

From the moment it becomes night there, even they jump over.

“… … .”

Whoops!!

I could tell just by looking at Noah, who was moving so fast that I could hear the wind cutting in my ears, without any problems.

When I ran a race with Noah in the past, the distance widened as soon as I started, but now it was worth chasing.

“… … .”

I said to Noah, who looked back to see if I was following him well, going over the walls and roofs.

“Never mind me!”

“… … .”

As midnight approached, my body began to energize more and more.

So there is no spreading in the middle.

There.

“You know the location anyway.”

He showed a magic tool in the shape of a watch on his wrist and said.

There was also a magic tool of the same shape in Noah’s hand, which was prepared in case they fell apart.

If the distance between each other is not more than 3km, you can know the direction of the opponent.

“… … .”

After I told him once, Noah turned his attention away from me.

He followed Noah, who ran without hesitation.

how long has it been like that

“… Where are you going?”

I muttered, not knowing.

Müller was heading in the opposite direction to the front where the incident occurred.

‘Has the future changed? no. It can’t be.’

His hair was complicatedly messed up, but contrary to his worries, he soon knew where he was headed.

The road gradually widens and I see a familiar landscape.

“Here… ?”

This is a place I’ve been to countless times while playing the game.

It was a royal road.

‘Why are you here?’

To celebrate the princess’s 16th birthday, look at the stores that are open late into the night and think about it for a while.

I had a thought running through my head.

“You have something to steal? ah!”

He exclaimed at the intuition as if he had caught a clue.

How did Muller, who was neither a high-ranking monster nor a wizard, summon monsters to the battlefield?

‘I wrote an item!’

A magic tool that attracts monsters.

It’s the first time I’ve heard of it, but considering the world of the game, it’s good enough with a moderate usage penalty.

‘… … .’

Both eyes calmly settled down.

I thought there would be a penalty, but it’s still a tool that can summon monsters.

‘It must be taken away unconditionally.’
