23 – encounter
Isabella is smiling.
“Kyaha-.”
Whether it’s forced or instinctive.
She sat on the couch in her dorm room and stomped her feet.
Whenever that happens, her light blue hair flutters.
“……”
Because of this, the attendant next to her was having a hard time tying her hair.
But Isabella had a hard time controlling the excitement.
The reason is that her plan to draw Arain into a duel had succeeded.
Alain, who should be in the room next to this dormitory right now. Does she know what the future holds?
“Hi-Hi.”
Isabella picks up the dueling ring on her finger and looks up.
It has a soft silver color.
In addition, chess pieces to be used as witnesses and Dame have been purchased.
All the bottom work is done.
“Theta.”
“yes. master.”
Seta, who was tying her hair at Isabella’s words, bowed her head.
“And Harold.”
Isabella tapped Harold’s head with her foot.
“Yes…yes!”
He was prostrated enough to stick to the floor, serving Isabella’s footrest.
“You both did well.”
In response to Isabella’s careless praise, the two spoke in unison.
“thank you.”
“After this duel, I will look after you guys personally.”
“thank you. thank you.”
As if these two have no pride, I express my gratitude over and over again.
Isabella picked up a piece of chocolate and peeled the wrapper off.
Dark chocolate with a deep flavor. It is very appetizing.
“Yum.”
If it’s sweet, I swallow it, if I use it, I spit it out…
This is her business philosophy.
The main source of income for the Izanak family is based on making profits from the distribution of goods caught between the repeated wars between the empire and the demons.
For third parties, war becomes money.
This is possible because Izanak can grasp the needs of both sides in the name of studying demons.
However, after the temporary peace treaty was signed, the opportunity for business was gradually disappearing.
Then what should I do?
Simply put, start a war again.
Even if it’s not a war, at least if you can create tension on both sides, it’s enough to pick up and eat the nobles of the periphery who terribly protect their property.
Isabella rolls the chocolate between her alveoli and her tongue and slowly melts it.
“Mmm.”
The Imperial Academy tries to maintain the surface of the seemingly calm lake.
Isabella decided to use this place even before entering school.
And the one chosen as the sacrifice to create a repercussion is Arain S Aspondel, an exchange student of the demons.
Isabella’s plan is simple indeed.
In a duel attended by various classes, he uses Seta to kill her.
And by using Dame Patrick, who already has nothing to lose, he fakes an accident.
According to the perception rooted in the demons, humans are meaner than you think.
It’s an accident, but the Aspondel family’s daughter died. Is there a demon who won’t be angry at this incident?
Isabella is also very curious about whether it can become firewood for a fire.
“Hee hee hee.”

Just thinking about it makes me smile.
Arain and the Demon Servant Lee Ha-yu. suspicious relationship between the two.
And the one who wants to be released from the family without the owner’s knowledge.
“Lee Ha-yu. You are lucky…ah…”
Isabella moaned for a while, intoxicated with the excitement running through her body.
* * *
– Tak-tak-tak.
I am crossing Lachesis Academy today as well, after the course of a cultured servant’s manners of living.
It was the day of Lane’s basic alchemy practice.
-sparkle.
Every time I run, the pendant Floria gave me shines.
When I went to Lane’s room yesterday, I was glad I left it. If I had seen this, I would have struggled to explain it again.
“Ugh.”
Anyway, my shoulder still hurts.
The place was swollen at a glance because it had been vampiric for so long.
“Still, he did it…”
That night, Lane wasn’t feeling as dignified as usual.
Maybe it was because I wasn’t feeling well.
Furthermore, thinking that I had to go out strong, I did things that I would never have done normally.
Perhaps Lane has noticed this by now.
‘Today, I’ll buy something.’
In any case, the time for dispensation is approaching. As long as the relationship stays like this…
“Finally finding light.”
Power clenched in both fists.
According to a note from Isabella, the duel will take place in the next week or so.
He said that it took some time because the observer had to come and the format and assortment had to be prepared.
Since the conditions have already been met, when the duel is over, Isabella will help me to release my family, regardless of victory or defeat.
Of course, if I lose the duel, Dame will use various tricks to expel me, as I bet, but anyway, can I release my family?
A reward more important than victory or defeat awaits.
‘…Still, would you like to win?’
As a goodbye gift, I want to do my best in the duel.
I wonder if there will be any difference if I do my best, but if I don’t do my best, I can look suspicious as it is.
‘If the family is released, I have to leave immediately.’
In fact, if there’s one thing that’s really bothering me a little bit, it’s that I’m rethinking whether what I’m doing is the right thing to do.
Of course, I have no regrets about Asfondelgar.
But from that point of view, they would consider my act itself a betrayal.
‘……Am I crazy?’
They’re bats who have lived on their fill for centuries without me anyway.
I guess that’s how much I could afford.
Really who cares about whom.
“Remaining Seven Deadly Sins points.”
——————————-
Remaining Seven Deadly Sins: 22
Strength: 10
Endurance (Mental Strength): 10
Intellect: 5
mana: 10
Flexible: 8
Luck: 1
——————————-
After the vampirism ended at 19 points, I gained 3 more points for gluttony. Therefore, the surplus score is 22.
‘Where am I going to write it?’
After all, wouldn’t it be better to raise your mana and learn the next skill?
But there are abilities that stand out.
[Flex: 8]
‘I’m worried…’
If you invest only 2 points, it becomes 10 points.
I can’t stand the 2 points.
“Flexibility 2 points.”
[※ Flexible 8->10 completed.]
[Flexibility rises to 2nd level]
[Blood consumption reduced by 10%]
[Blood magic proficiency rises to 2 levels]
Whoa. The reduction in consumption is really good.
‘What is the skill level?’
[Blood magic up to apprentice level does not fail. Chant can be omitted]
‘Ah-oh.’
The fact that the failure of blood magic disappears is great, but the biggest thing is that you don’t have to sing a hot chant during the day. I’ll take some pictures sooner.
[Remaining Seven Deadly Sins: 20]
The remaining score is 20 points.
‘Intelligence must be an increase in the coefficient of magic-related skills, so is there only luck left?’
I have no idea what luck is.
‘I don’t know. I’ll have to poke it.’
Let’s just taste it while praying for the fate of the future that has been released from the family.
“Nine points of luck.”
[※ Luck 1 -> 10 completed.]
[Luck increases to level 2]
[Goddess Luck smiles lightly at you]
[You can acquire hidden skills among blood magic skills]
[※]
“Five.”
I’d like to say, but it’s an incredible game. Don’t jump to conclusions, start with caution.
– belt ring
[※Precautions]
[Applicable only when 30 seconds pass in the blood magic skill selection window and no skill is selected.]
“I knew it.”
If you raise your magic level and receive a new blood magic skill list, you have 30 seconds to choose.
That’s how I chose equivalent exchange.
After all, hidden skills can appear when you lose the risk of randomness.
It’s a fucking joke.
“Try it?”
Anyway, I am the main character of this game. Being lucky means giving it a try, right?
“Ten points for magic power.”
[※ HP 10 -> 20 completed.]
[Blood Magic – Intro -> Blood Magic – Apprenticeship]
[When magic power reaches 30 points, it rises to mastery level]
[Random skill has been created]
[※You can choose one of the 3 random skills]
[※ Unselected skills may reappear later]
[※If you don’t choose within 30 seconds, it will be selected randomly]
Phrases that you have already checked will pop up.
and.
– Tiring.
——————————-
[Blood Curtain (Magical)-Active]
You can create a bloody curtain with Blood and use it on both offense and defense.
[Blood Killer (Physical)-Passive]
All spells are maxed out when remaining blood is below 30.
[Blood Cell (Magical)-Active]
Delivers a ball-shaped blow with Blood. Good value for money.
——————————-
‘It’s here.’

Just in case, I quickly skimmed through the skills.
Of the two, the skill with the most synergy would probably be Blood Killing.
It’s because you can reduce blood with equal exchange and boost your abilities by maximizing spells when you become a blood killer.
In addition, since I have already invested points in strength, it can be affected by physical coefficients.
However, it is Berserker style, which is the most efficient right before death.
‘It doesn’t suit me.’
Conversely, Blood Veil and Blood Cells can use magic.
It wouldn’t be nice for the world to know that I could use magic, but it would be useful in an emergency.
[Remaining time until selection completion: 15 seconds]
How is it?
[Time remaining until selection completion: 13 seconds]
Yes, let’s leave it to the sky.
.
.
.
[※ Do not select within 30 seconds, so it is selected randomly.]
“please!”
[Hidden skill selection failed!]
[Random skill is selected]
——————————-
[Blood Curtain (Magical)-Active] (new!)
You can build a bloody curtain with Blood and use it on both offense and defense.
Starter word: ‘Forge blood with blood’
——————————-
Erai X Mangem.
At this point, it’s clear that the producers made it to harass me.
Rough description. Just starting too. Just about the ability.
no luck there
I can’t stop cursing if I don’t want to.
Anyway, after grumbling around, I arrived at the Transformation Hall’s supply room before I knew it.
With a sigh, I took Lane’s note out of my pocket.
“Ha… Let’s see.”
———————-
A-012 Furnishing room
Nependeath Powder: 1 small bottle
Feronica leaves: 1 piece
will come not too late
———————-
The cool handwriting seems to suggest that he has returned to the original lane without mercy.
‘Something creepy?’
The writing is the same, but the atmosphere in the furnishings room is so different that you wonder if it’s the same coffin of transformation.
Iron doors large enough for one person are placed in the corridor at wide intervals.
.
.
.
“A-011, A-012…”
It wasn’t difficult to find.
“Is it here?”
Come to think of it, Lane didn’t give me the key.
I pulled the doorknob without hesitation.
– Knocked up.
Contrary to expectations, the door opened very easily.
as if pulling me
-Soaaa-
‘what?’
A thick fog fills the room.
-……
There is a person beyond the blur. Is it Lane?
“…miss?”
In terms of body shape, there is a woman sitting on the wall, which is a silhouette wearing a hat.
-Shhhh
The fog lifts little by little.
‘ah.’
And what I encountered…
was a princess
The princess I saw in the last class, the sixth-ranked princess who was said to have come from the imperial castle…
Blonde with a doll-like appearance. Even the mysterious atmosphere that symbolizes the royal family.
But there is something different.
Her eyes, which were originally emerald green, were crimson, and huge horns protruded from her small face like those of a sheep.
‘crazy?’
In this situation, the expression encounter rather than face to face would be more appropriate.
This dreamy feeling I had forgotten about was the feeling I had when I first met Rain.
uh…
Why does the imperial princess have horns? is it a cosplay?
It is also the shape of the horn of a high-ranking demon in Pandemonium that I have only seen once in the past.
“……”
She was looking at me with a hazy gaze.
As if you’ve been watching it for a long time.
“…Uh…This is the Arain lady’s supplies room…”
As if in response to my words, she blinks. Each time it glows bright red.
“……”
In this world, red-type eyes… belong only to demons.
conclusions can be drawn.
The imperial princess is a demon.
It is also a high-ranking demon.
and i…
-visor!
The surroundings break like a mirror.
“Fuck……”
It is different from Floria. All that fog was the princess’s mana.
And I entered her own barrier.
“It sucks.”
Intuitively.
That I am an uninvited guest.
And that there is no luck today.
Only the thought of leaving immediately dominated my mind.
get out? run away?
“That… Excuse me…”
-Shhh!
At that moment, something flew and stuck in me.
