Chapter 107 – Lena’s Family (4)
I can’t even imagine how Lena found out about such an abandoned house.
“Sister Lena. “Why on earth are you going in there?”
“Well, that is…”
“Sister. Honestly, you’re not going to explore an abandoned house, are you?”
“Ugh…”
“Tell me the truth.”
Lena finally bows her head and tells the truth.
“Zion. “It may be really hard to believe, but it is true.”
“Yes.”
“My mother died of illness when I was young. But her mother became a vampire yesterday, so she came to my room.”
“…”
She said, “She bragged to her mom that she had a lover, and she told me to bring her here because she wanted to see her face.”
“How much did you say about me?”
“She told me her name, what she looked like and what she did.”
This abandoned house is a trap to catch me. Because I read the novel, I know that Lena’s mother was resurrected as an undead on the Demon Lord’s side. Even in the Demon Lord’s army, I think she is slowly coming to terms with my existence. Honestly, my existence was already revealed when I, Aris, and Kazan harassed the spider hero Margurshas. In that case, it is highly likely that Lena’s mother heard about me and realized that I was the main target, so she set a trap.
In order to persuade Lena, I bent my knees and brought her to eye level.
“Sister Lena. It’s not a good idea to go in there.”
“Ugh… Her mom asked me to see her…”
“You’re a vampire.”
“Mom says she doesn’t drink human blood.”
It seems that Lena’s mother deceived the inexperienced Lena with her coaxing theories. Claiming right here that Lena’s mother is a bad person is not the right way to persuade.
“Sister Lena. “Do I really need to see it today?”
“What do you mean?”
“That abandoned house looks too dangerous. I don’t know why Lena’s mother chose such an abandoned house. Honestly, it’s not strange if there are other undead.”
“Wouldn’t her mother protect her?”
“Of course. But my mother said that Lena came to her room. Why do we have to go into that abandoned house?”
“Uh? Like that?”
Lena begins to have her doubts.
“If mom still loves sister Lena, she doesn’t have to go into the abandoned house today, but she will come back to her sister’s room. Or, me and Lena can wait at her motel or something.”
“Mom doesn’t know where the motel is.”
“You can come here during the day and leave a note.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. It’s a pity, but I’m leaving for today.”
“Yeah…”
I turn and lead Lena by the arm, and Lena follows with her dejected expression. Now he has to figure out how to show Lena her mother’s true colors and get rid of her mother. Fortunately, I have powerful units called Aris, Jenny, and Kasha in my hands.
‘Should we just bring everyone here? I think Kasha or Aris would easily kill a vampire. Or should I coax Jazlin and bring Jazlin’s SS?’
As we were leaving the slums, black figures swirled around us.
“Ugh…”
“Kyaaa…”
The moment Lena and I tried to scream, the figures covered our mouths and dragged us into the alley.
‘What! Luck 300 not working?’
“Are you Zeon?”
A man asked me a question in a polite voice.
“Uh? Dad!”
Then Lena shouted, her eyes wide.
“That’s right. It’s dad. And shush.”
When the man put his fingers to her mouth, Lena shut her up and covered her mouth with both her hands. If you remember the contents of the novel, it seems to be Obius, Lena’s father and the owner of the magic tower.
Next to Obius, there was a woman of similar height to Lena, and the woman poked Lena’s cheek and got irritated.
“Lena. “You really only cause trouble.”
“Inora unnie…”
Looking at Lena’s answers and actions, it is clear that it is her real sister, Inora. She is increasingly unable to understand the situation.
‘Why are Lena’s father and sister here! Who are the strong-looking people around me?’
Obius left Lena and I standing in the alley and began to explain.
“Guys. I hope you will understand the following explanation. “My wife Bianca has become a vampire and is drawing you into a trap.”
“Mom is not that kind of person!”
“Lena. I know. Bianca said she was never meant to be like that.”
“Then…”
“But the Bianca who became a vampire is not the Bianca of old. It’s Lena. She is a vampire and has the ability to attract people close to her to become vampires. They lead old families to destruction with sweet talk that shakes people’s emotions. “Maybe a vampire thinks it’s a blessing to turn his family into a vampire, but for the living, it’s a curse.”
“Mom said she only sucks animal blood…”
“That’s cheating. Lena also read her book about vampires. Didn’t she talk a lot about people who fell for vampires and destroyed herself and the rest of her family?”
“That’s right… Sniff. Sniff. Ugh. Wooaaaeang.”
Lena nodded her head, but then she burst into tears. I hugged Lena tightly to my chest without saying a word.
“Sniff. Wooaaaeang. I hate everyone. Friendship.”
Lena buries her face in my chest and cries bitterly.
Ovius held my shoulder and spoke to me while looking into his eyes.
“You. “You have Lena’s trust.”
“Yes. We trust each other.”
“I think it’s fortunate that you are by Lena’s side.”
“Thank you.”
“Please continue to protect Lena in the future.”
“I think so.”
Obius nodded at her with a satisfied look on his face and took his hand away. When Lena stopped crying, she looked at Obius and asked a question.
“Sniff. Dad. But what are these people?”
“I brought the magic tower troops.”
“Ho, are you trying to kill her mother?”
“Okay…”
Obius’ face looked so painful as he answered that even Lena was speechless.
“Bianca… Vampires… Are persistent. They live forever, so they never give up until they enter eternal sleep. Even if we die giving birth to offspring, they will try to turn those offspring into vampires as well.”
“Dad…”
“You guys need to go back inside that abandoned house.”
“Dad?”
“Yes?”
This time Lena and I were confused at the same time.
‘No. You said it was dangerous earlier. Why are you telling me to go in!’
Obius continued his explanation.
“Bianca would never dream that we knew about her. This is the best time to catch Bianca. I’ll give you two wireless buttons here. If you find Bianca and decide she is in danger, press this button. Then, I will receive a message immediately telling me where you are, and I will lead the Magic Tower troops to attack and rescue you. This button uses Magic Tower’s latest encryption and communication technology, so unless it is blocked with a strong barrier, communication will always come to me.”
When Lena trembled, I gently held her hand warmly. As Obius said, I think ending Bianca this time will be good for my mental health in the future.
“Sister Lena. I will protect you.”
“Zion…”
“I don’t run away. “I will be next to Lena.”
“Okay. I will do my best too.”
Obius smiles as he watches me with a satisfied expression. It seems like he got a lot of points from his father-in-law.
This time, Obius held out two bottles of water and two crosses.
“This is the holy water and cross that I paid a lot of money for and was baptized by a cardinal. This holy water can inflict fatal attacks on undead, and when magical power is injected into the cross, it creates a small undead exclusion barrier around the body. It won’t work for long, but we’ll have enough time to save you.”
Lena and I each took a wireless button, holy water, and a cross and put them in our pockets.
“We will stay hidden, so go now.”
Lena and I nodded at Obius’ words.
“Tch. It’s Lena. “Don’t get hurt for no reason.”
Inora cheers Lena with a taunt.
Someone tapped my shoulder and I looked and it was Wily, a random magic tutor and Magic Tower researcher.
“W-I’m going to save you, so don’t worry. Anything with my random magic is okay~”
Seeing that the way he speaks has already become a bit strange, I’m not really looking forward to it.
Still, I feel reassured that so many people are watching me and Lena.
I held Lena’s hand and walked towards her abandoned house. When I look back, the street is empty, as if everyone has hidden somewhere.
Lena squeezes my hand and gives her courage.
“Zion. Let’s do our best.”
“Yes. Sister Lena. I can do it.”
I walked with Lena to her abandoned house, forcing her shaking legs to move.
Squeak
As we approached the abandoned house, the front door opened on its own. I looked at Lena face to face, took her mind, and went inside. It was an empty space with no one inside, but the candles on the walls were lit, dimly lighting the surroundings.
“Is there anyone?”
At that time, I heard someone greeting me right next to me.
“Welcome.”
I was startled and turned around to see an old man dressed in a suit like a butler.
“Ugh! When did you come?”
“I’ve been waiting here since a while ago. My name is Willem.”
“Ho, are you a vampire?”
“You’re right. I have been given the role to guide you safely. “Don’t worry.”
With those words, Willem bluntly walked up the central stairs of the hall.
Step by step
As we followed Willem into the second floor hallway, two noble ladies in medieval dresses with their hair up were drinking red liquid from wine glasses, then turned to look at us and seduced us.
“Hohoho~ These kids look delicious, right?”
“Guys. “Won’t you kiss me?”
Lena holds my hand tightly with her wet hand in cold sweat.
“How rude to the guests!”
As Willem spoke, the ladies bowed their heads and disappeared into the darkness. Seeing that there are so many vampires, it seems like it’s definitely a trap.
‘It feels like I’m walking into the mouth of a monster. Fuck…’
The operation has already begun, so we must trust others and see what lies at the end.
Willem stopped in front of a room and knocked on the door.
Knock
“I brought the guests.”
Squeak
This time, the visit will be held on its own.
