11 – #03. Justice of Happiness (2)

Mea kept moving against Neira.

Weapons scattered everywhere are her tactics.

She moved quickly, crossing, throwing and swinging her weapon, scattering her spells everywhere, and when Neira paused for a moment, she found the gap and dug into her arms, repeatedly repeating to continue the engagement.

“More than I thought, you are really persistent.”

Neira bit her teeth and looked at Mea.

Speed is also fast, but it was difficult to deal with the tactic of using completely different weapons in succession for each situation and then ignorantly scattering the spell by exploding them.

Meanwhile, Mea seemed to be getting used to Neira’s movements.

Little by little, she caught up to the overwhelming difference, and she began to scratch her body one by one.

Of course, even if it was a weapon containing the Holy Law, you couldn’t expect a fatal blow against the True Vampire, and the scars didn’t mean much.

However, the fact that she began to catch up with the movement itself proved that this battle situation was gradually drawing a horizontal line.

Again, she lowered her body and lunged at her, and as soon as Neira swung her arms, she swerved with her feet and slashed her in the side.

It continued to attack several times like that, repeating the battle.

Mea felt a little suspicious that her attacks worked better than she thought, and prepared for her to draw out all her mana and end her close combat soon.

Jinjo Vampires are mighty with their bodies alone, but I heard that their true power lies in the vast amount of magic within their bodies and their irregular attacks that scatter blood by using them.

Even if they have never faced each other directly, they are not ignorant of the notoriety of the true ancestor vampires, so it is inevitable that a desperate battle will soon follow.

So Mea drew her weapon and kept her eyes on Neira while keeping her distance.

“Ha ha ha… ….”

But instead of drawing her magic, Neira held on to the cut in her weapon and breathed heavily.

“What, why are you pretending to be weak?”

“…… Did it look like that?”

“Where do you save that ignorant mana? Do I look so easygoing? Or even if it’s really out of date in less than ten years…….”

As she was about to continue her story, she sensed something strange about her.

Her eyes seemed to adapt to her movements little by little, but when she thought about it, there was no way her speed had increased in the meantime.

Nevertheless, Neira allowed Mea’s attack too easily.

Why? What are you aiming for?

She chewed on the words she was about to ask, asking if she had become a waste.

What if it’s not Mea herself adapting, but Neira’s slowing down?

But there was no reason for that.

Jinjo Vampires are creatures that possess eternity. It is said to be a byword for immortality, and it was considered to be a being that would revive even if its head fell off if there was only human blood.

Why is such an existence weak?

Mea had such an innocent question.

“What, what? What are you aiming for?”

“…… That’s what I’m aiming for.”

Neira laughed bitterly.

Is it really a person called a hero? She wondered if she could somehow deal with this physical ability alone, but Mea was a tougher and more demanding opponent than she thought.

“It’s nothing special. I just wanted to make my eternity, Seo-nim’s wish come true.”

“What nonsense is that… ….”

At that moment, the words were cut off.

Come to think of it, there were not just one or two odd corners.

Why didn’t you know?

Mea questioned herself and looked at Neira.

No matter how blessed the weapon was, it did not lead to a fatal blow to Jinjo. If that had been possible, Jinjo’s notoriety in the northern part of the empire should have ceased immediately.

But why are there still scratches on her body?

She saw records that say even if an arm is cut off and the skin burns, even if the head falls off, it will be regenerated in an instant. Even if it wasn’t for that, even a normal vampire could quickly recover from that level of scar.

“What are you?”

“I thought that someday there would be a limit, but at times like this, the bottom line is revealed.”

Neira smiled softly and shook her head.

My body was forced to move anyway.

It seemed that the limit would come one day, but through this battle, I felt that the last remaining magic power in my body had been exhausted.

“…… You.”

“Mr. Mea. I’m sorry I’ve been peeping a little, but I’m glad you took on that difficult role for me. It’s a bit sad too.”

She laughed, but Mea didn’t see it as a laugh.

A very melancholy smile.

How can that be considered laughter?

“Because he was broken little by little even before he left us. It was as if she held her own destructive wishes and reproached herself.”

“Then… ….”

“I didn’t make it, but I’m so glad you took over the role. That’s how I’m glad you love him, and it’s sad that I can’t be by his side.”

Mea bit her lower lip.

If you know that, why?

More than that, I wondered why Jinjo was dying.

“Why the hell did that happen?”

“…… Because she fell in love.”

She didn’t understand that for a moment, but then she realized it.

If the True Vampire is weak, is there another reason? Even if it was a psychological cause, it was too dramatic a change, and there was only one if it was directly related to the body and mana.

“Human…….”

“It’s not just blood that I suck blood. The human life force and its source. Taking all of them is the true ancestor’s meal.”

Humans who are blood-sucked by Jinjo will surely die.

Mea answered all her doubts here.

Even her questions about why Neira tried to kill Seo and why she was so weak.

So, guessing what happened to her after that, she bit her teeth.

“Only me to play the bad b*tch?”

“Sadly, Mr. Seo doesn’t love himself. They regret meeting with us, call it a curse and put it down. That’s really sad, but if he wants that, shouldn’t someone blame him?”

Mea tried to make his wish come true by rebuking him.

She tried to take on the role for him who wanted a person who was freed by her own fascination and reproached herself, and Neira, on the contrary, wanted him with her self and her destructive wishes…….

“Bad b*tch. Leave all these dog-like roles.”

“…… Mr Mea. I have one request, will you please?”

“I hate it.”

Mea cut it short, but Neira smiled unconcerned.

“Take him to me.”

“…… I know what you will do.”

At that, Neira smiled and murmured softly.

Mea gnashed her teeth at those words.

To take only those good roles.

Bad b*tch.

A shameful year.

She thought so, but she couldn’t help but nod her head at the end.

Because she now knows that only she can do that part of her life.

She’s really upset, but she realizes that’s what he needs.

* * *

It happened someday.

‘Seo. Won’t you tell me you love me?’

‘…… Why is that all of a sudden?’

A man looking back at himself with a slightly embarrassed face.

He showed weakness in this direct attack of affection, and she lightly caressed his chest, as if teasing him for being cute.

‘Hmm? If you don’t love me… ? This is sad. It’s so sad, I think I’ll have to prove what the real Jinjo is from now on.’

‘Ah!! OK, I got it!! Love you! You and others too! I love you all!!’

‘Huh. The last one is a bit, but it doesn’t feel too bad.’

She liked this casual time with him.

There were many women by Seo’s side, but he tried to look after them all as much as possible. At least Neira felt that way, so I wanted to focus on my time with him rather than being jealous.

‘Rather than that, where are we going today?’

‘I heard there is a play in town today. You like that, don’t you?’

To tell you the truth, she didn’t really like it.

But rather than tell the truth, she smiled.

‘I like anything as long as I’m with you.’

‘Whatever? That’s not it.’

‘Is this for real?’

Even if death is approaching, you can greet it with a smile if you are with him.

Since she was a true ancestor, she couldn’t die easily, but because the person she loved was a human, and experiencing the human world he taught her, she stopped sucking blood from humans.

Little by little she felt her body scream.

But she held back because he was also meant to be with him.

‘You have to make me happy today too. Then I’ll repay you in full at night.’

‘…… Please don’t say that outside.’

‘Be cute.’

I liked that casual time.

She wanted to face him proudly, even if she had only a short life left.

Because he didn’t like to see someone die.

When she first came into the human world led by his hand, she casually looked at the human she had vampirized and killed, and with a sad expression asked to fix it together.

Looking back now, I could imagine how painful he must have been at the time.

‘Seo Seo.’

‘Why? If you’re going to say something weird…….’

‘I really love you.’

She laughed very happily.

She lived for a limited amount of time without vampirizing humans, but thanks to her, she was able to say that she loved him with true sincerity.

Her pure love, which does not intervene with other emotions, has become more intense, and she does not regret her choice.

I was happy.

At least Neira herself thought so, but he was gradually broken.

And now.

The time has come to set it all right.

“Are you here?”

She looked back at him with the brightest expression possible.

The inside of my body had already collapsed due to depletion of mana, and I felt bitter pain, but I didn’t want it to remain as a bad memory for him, who would probably be the last to see it.

Because I wanted to look as beautiful as possible.

At least her woman’s little desire not to remain ugly forced her to laugh.

“…… Neira.”

“I was waiting for you.”

Her blonde hair flutters in the wind, and only his image is engraved in her red eyes.

What will happen from now on is a secret between the two of you.

“Would you please show me that face?”

She longed to see his real face behind the mask.
