[Vampire Knight] Briar

[If 'I' has nothing, everything is lost.But the world still exists as if nothing was lost.

This world that still exists including myself is really incredible.How can it act like nothing happened? !

Such existence without a subject is 'existence'.

How can one escape the hopeless loneliness of the 'being'?Is it okay to create a self-centered world?

no.Even if one uses one's own explanation to take in everything and build a self-centered world, it cannot make people escape the fear of existence.

The key to escape from existence lies in the 'face of others'.That is: those we unconditionally bear ethical responsibilities to others. 】

- Levinas (Difficult Freedom)

The four of us walked towards the teaching building of Heizhu Academy.

I followed behind Kulan Yuki and Sui Shengling.Kaoru Iris restrained the pressure and aura of the pureblood, and followed me silently.

An eerie silence.

Probably, Suisheng Ling had nothing to say; Yuuki was afraid of mentioning things that shouldn't be said, so she kept silent; If his personality doesn't change, his personality is originally the kind of stuffy gourd who likes to keep silent and pretend to be deep in front of people.

Just now at the door of Yezhiliao, I said to Yuuki, I will go with her to check the situation of the turmoil after I pick up a piece of clothes.Then Iris Kaoru handed me another long coat from nowhere, which happened to be what I wanted to take.

I froze for a moment, but still took it, and gave him a blank look by the way.

Sure enough, if I want to play tricks or plot against Iris Kaoru for some reason, I will definitely not be able to play against him.

Iris Kaoru knows me too well.When he handed me the dress, I even had some doubts, either he was the reincarnation of the roundworm spirit in my stomach, or his attributes should be the kind of Doraemon with a "treasure bag".

Then the four of us fell silent.

Yuuki looked at me worriedly, then looked at Kaoru Iris hesitantly.I quietly squeezed her hand and told her: "It's okay, let's go to the teaching building. I don't know what's going on with Ying yet."

Jiulan Yuki nodded, and looked at Ai Shengling again.

Cone Shengling stared fiercely at Iris Kaoru for a while.But probably he was more worried about the situation in the teaching building, so in the end he just yelled at us fiercely: "If I find out later that this matter is related to you, I will not spare you!" Then he turned around, Take the lead and walk quickly towards the direction of the teaching building of Heizhu Academy.

A few of us were silent all the way.

When we arrived at the teaching building, Lan Tangying, Toya Rima and Zhi Aoi Qianli were besieging the group of "classmates" who had "rabies" and bit anyone they saw.I saw that the teacher who was our teacher in name, but in fact he was the high-level blood hunter who watched us, mowed ten teeth at night, and impatiently shot several people unconscious with a gun and was about to 'escape' the classroom?The vampire running towards the day ministry dormitory.Fortunately, he didn't have a special bullet for hunting with blood, so those noble vampires just passed out instead of being wiped out.

However, this turmoil in the night department is more troublesome than I imagined.

Something went wrong with the new blood sedative.

"Hey! Liangzi! What are you doing there, come and help me!" Lan Tangying caught a glimpse of us and shouted to me while using his ice ability to freeze the rioting vampires in front of him.

Beside him, Zhi Aoi Chisato knocked down a vampire who was about to jump forward with a punch, and Toya Rima used a black lightning whip to throw the unconscious vampire aside.

Jiulan Youji has already drawn out her 'Goddess of Hunting' and greeted her.

I secretly charged up, and the dark green pupils gradually turned dark red.I am going to release the coercion of pure blood, hoping to use blood to suppress those blood races that are out of control.

But just as I was about to do so, a hand landed on my shoulder, drawing me into the protective circle of the man behind me.Then, bloodline suppression like a huge wave was released from that person's body.

Then, what appeared in front of everyone's eyes were vines that suddenly grew out of the ground.Those thick vines trapped all the crazy vampires within our line of sight, as if a single command from the person behind me could instantly kill those 'crazy' vampires.

Everyone's shocked gazes gathered behind me.

"The King of Pure Blood..." I saw Lan Tangying put down his arm ready to attack, widened his blue eyes, and looked at the person behind me.But his brows were gradually wrinkled, and his eyes were full of vigilance.

"Thank you, is your Excellency...?" Toya Rima also put away the long whip made of lightning in her hand.Zhikui Qianli pulled Jiulan Yuki who was in front of him to the side behind him, but did not speak.

Iris Kaoru did not answer their questions or doubts.

The atmosphere in the classroom is getting more and more dignified.

"Liangzi? Isn't he Calamus? What happened? How can the coercion on him be at the same level as Master Shu?" Lan Tangying saw that Calamus Kaoru didn't answer for a long time, so he turned to me.

I turned around and saw Iris Kaoru just staring at me, as if waiting for my order.He had no expression on his face, as if... there was still a little bit of innocence?

Why is he innocent!This... this big bad wolf who obviously used his pure-blood charm to seduce me on purpose!

I'm not like my dormitory, my brain is like a mess.I've already realized that Kaoru Kaoru definitely used a little "little trick" unique to pure-blooded vampires on me, coaxing me into mutual blood-sucking with him.

You must know, first of all, this kind of behavior only belongs to lovers who are in love with each other, the kind who can give everything of themselves to each other.Because, let's be honest, who hasn't read two pornographic books?This kind of behavior is usually the interaction before the 'cough cough, you know'!So, just now... just now I almost pressed him and took the initiative to have sex with him!

Secondly, how do I judge that he used 'charm' or 'seduction' on me?Because I belatedly remembered that since I woke up, that guy's pupils were dark red that could still be clearly seen in the dark.And if a vampire's pupils light up, either he is in a state of agitation or hunger, or he is using some 'ability' to 'hunt'.So, I'll bet that while I know he's not manipulating my mind, he's definitely hinting at me a little bit or trying to 'seduce' me.

"What are you going to do to trap these people?" I asked him angrily.

"..." Iris Kaoru didn't answer my question directly.He lowered his head and brought his face closer, as if he was about to kiss me.I couldn't turn around under the restraint of his arms, I could only turn my head away to avoid his kiss.His lips finally touched the corner of my eyes lightly, itching. "Liang, don't be angry with me." He whispered to me as if no one else was there.

When I was about to 'have a good time' to reason with Iris Kaoru, he suddenly let go of me and turned to the door of the teaching building.

"Hahaha, everyone is here." I know the person who opened the door, and it was a tuma.But even though he was smiling, his expression was somewhat unnatural.

Afterwards, Takuma got out of the way, and respectfully invited out the pureblood who was standing behind him, Bai Lugeng, who was as beautiful as a white lotus.

"Bigger man," a Tuoma bent down, and kept saluting when Bailu walked into the teaching building.But I felt that he seemed to be resisting something, because his back seemed to be trembling slightly. "Please--"

This sentence is obviously not what Bailu wanted him to say more, so Bailu interrupted one of Tama's words, and looked straight at Kaoru Iris standing in front of me. "Xun, are you back?" She smiled like a girl reunited with her lover after a long absence.

"The riot in the Black Master Academy was caused by you." Since I was blocked by Iris Kaoru, I don't know what his expression is now, but I heard him say: "I don't care about other places. , but please get rid of these 'uneasy factors' in Heizhu Academy that affect my life and Ryo's life."

"You are really an indifferent adult as Shu said." Bai Lugeng's laughter was as crisp as the water bell in a temple, very sweet. "Then, since you haven't gotten tired of Miss Scarlet Sakura, I will follow your order and change to another playground. However, please let my obedient 'children' go."

"Miss Geng, did you control these blood races? Why did you do this?" Jiulan Youji interjected before me.Anger was suppressed in her voice.

"Ah, hello, Miss Yuki." Bai Lu turned to her more calmly. "I'm just using the talents we were born with. If we don't use them, wouldn't it be a waste of the resources we have in our hands? It seems that many children like it very much. What a group of good children." She put her arms around a Tuoma's neck, raised his head, and imprinted his lips on one of Tuoma's lips.

A Tama looked like a puppet and didn't resist at all.No expression, no pandering.

"You added your own blood to the blood potion? To manipulate these vampires?" I remembered what Kaoru Iris told me about the special characteristics of pure blood when I was in Europe with him.

"How could you do this!" Yuuki immediately followed my words, and asked Bailu even louder in disbelief: "I can't allow the pure blood to impose the unwanted results on the other party according to their own wishes. the behavior of."

"Are you talking about Shu?" Unexpectedly, Bai Lugeng smiled slightly instead.She didn't answer my question, like acquiescence, but more like a kind of arrogant neglect. "Xun, Shu is doing something too much right now." She also ignored Jiulan Yuki, as if the only person in this room who was qualified to talk to her directly was Iris Kaoru. "Pink pear, orange moss... ah," Bailu glanced at me more lightly, "of course... and scarlet cherry." She walked towards Kaoru Kaoru, raised her hand, and was about to put her hand on his. body, but Kaoru Iris dodged sideways.

But Bailu just smiled indifferently: "Shu said, I will be the next one. The leader of the pure blood has already betrayed us vampires. Xun, both are powerful pure blood, don't consider joining forces Is it? I think it is much more useful than that little girl you are protecting..."

I don't know what Kaoru Iris did.But the thick vines around us gradually receded, and the struggling vampires trapped by his vines fell down one after another.

Just when I thought he was going to agree with Bailugeng's words, the smile on Bailugeng's face disappeared.A Tuoma pulled out his saber, and quickly blocked Bai Lugeng's body.Then, a swirl of brown powder fell from the air, but it smelled like wooden flakes.

"You did a good job, Tama." Shirato looked at Kaoru Iris even more expressionlessly, and then took two steps back. "Don't you also agree with Shu's point of view? Let me remind you that killing a pure-blood is an unforgivable felony. You and Shu jointly destroyed the Scarlet House, but since there are only traces of Shu's hand at the scene, you have not yet become a vampire Our most wanted target. The head of the Iris family who has been sleeping for many years, your father, Isa Isa, has awakened. As long as you find him, you will no longer have to bear the identity of an illegitimate child. So, why are you still afraid of your "weakness" 'Yes, what about the half-sister? Although brothers and sisters in pure-blood families often get married, if I remember correctly, because of the incident with Iris Fuji, the Iris family and the Hizakura family are considered enemies. It's not too much..."

What interrupted Bai Lugeng's words were two vines with spikes.

One of them was blocked by a sword of Tama, and the other, when it was about to sweep in front of Egret, quickly withered and turned black, and finally shattered and fell, as if someone had dried all its moisture with fire. .

"...I don't care how much you know about me, but I don't want to turn the Black Master Academy into a battlefield." Neither of the two vines released any poison. Killing intent. "I have never been involved in any of the pure-blood camps, whether it is to protect humans or raise humans in captivity. Even, I have never joined the pure-blood alliance. Shu used to be my friend, but he hurt me the most. An important person, so I don't intend to interfere in his affairs. As for you, Ms. Bailu Geng, if you are going to drag me and Ryo into any dispute between you, then I will declare war on you. "

As his words fell, more green vines grew from the ground around the egret and a tama, almost trying to trap them both.

Takuma frantically used his ability to turn some of the drawn vines into molecular forms, destroying their composition; while fighting other vines with his sword.

As for Bai Lugeng, her pupils had completely turned red.Under her ability, the temperature around those vines rose rapidly, the water evaporated extremely quickly, and they broke off one after another, falling from her surroundings.

However, Iris Kaoru's vines are only his support in the battle.

I saw that his figure turned into a black feather and quickly disappeared in front of me.Then, those black feathers suddenly condensed behind Bai Lugeng.At this time, Iris Kaoru had already used the fingertips that turned into sharp claws to suppress the more fragile neck of the egret.As long as Kaoru Kaoru exerts a little force, Bailu will be separated immediately.

"Get out of here." Iris Kaoru's tone did not contain any order or threat, but I saw that Bailu still shivered.

"Master Changto, please stop! I apologize to you on Miss Geng's behalf." A Tuoma looked like he was being threatened by the egret before, and couldn't help himself in every move, but now, he looked nervously at Changto Kaoru acts as if he is really more loyal to Bailu.

"...I will leave." Bai Lu was silent for a while, and saw that Kaoru Kaoru did not intend to stop after hearing Ichi Tama's words, so he made such a promise.

Kaoru iris turned into a burst of black feathers again.Then, his figure condensed again, beside me.

Egret gave me a more vicious look, turned around, raised his neck, and prepared to leave from the door of the teaching building.

"Wait! Miss Geng, please tell me the antidote to this blood sedative! Otherwise, I won't let you leave like this." You Ji regained her composure and chased after Bailu Geng. arm.But when Bai Lu Geng turned his head, a Tama grabbed Yulan Yuki's hand holding Bai Lu Geng: "Sorry, Yu Ji, I can't let you stop the bigger man."

"A senior!" Yuuki looked at him in shock.

"Probably because I don't want any bad things to happen to the place that Jiulan's dormitory chief once carefully managed... Hahaha." Although Tuoma seemed to be smiling nervously, there was something in his eyes Kind of serious.

I don't know what the relationship between these two people is before, but obviously, the two people know each other, and they seem to be quite familiar.

Bailu pulled out his arms more coldly, and left the Black Master Academy without saying a word.

After seeing Shiratara's back going away, a Takuma bowed deeply to Jiulan Yuki, turned around and followed Shiratara away.

"Hey! Yiyi! Are you voluntary?" When Tuoma left, Zhikui Qianli, who had been immersed in his own little world, stopped him unexpectedly.

A tama's footsteps paused. "Well, of course." He turned his head, with a smile that he always saw every day.Then, as if he didn't have any nostalgia, he walked quickly towards the direction where the egret left.It's just that I don't know if the smile on his face faded like a tide after a Tuoma turned his head.

"It's very worrying, one." Toya Rima said softly.

"...Hmm." Zhikui Qianli frowned as he looked at Tama's back.

"I'm talking about you guys! What about these out-of-control vampires! And Liangzi, 'Calamus'..." Lan Tangying's energetic and loud voice interrupted the strange atmosphere in the room.When he said the name 'Calamus', Calamus Kaoru turned his head to look at him, so Lan Tangying's voice fell into a guilty conscience: "I mean, the pure-blood adult next to you... is What's the history?"

"What 'what's the origin'?" I still don't want to think about everything about Iris Kaoru for the time being, so I went to Lan Tangying, trying to change the topic: "Ying, if these blood tranquilizers are made of pure blood blood If the bad influence of the vampire is not affected, it may be untied with the blood of another pure-blood who hopes that 'these vampires will regain their self-awareness'." While talking, I rolled up my sleeves and prepared to "self-sacrifice, selfless dedication" 'one time.

"Cool!" Someone grabbed my wrist very hard, I turned around, and it was Iris Kaoru.His face looked unhappy: "If you really want to do it, use my blood." He looked at me uncompromisingly.After a while, seeing that I still wanted to persevere, Kaoru Kaoru sighed, and dropped a shocking news: "Don't be angry with me. I didn't kill your father, Scarlet Sakura. I just forced him into the In a deep sleep, probably...after dozens or hundreds of years, he will wake up again."
