Early in the morning, we were standing in Uncle Oliver's room, facing him. It may not be at dawn yet, but we have to leave. Where else if not for our next mission.
Kayn and I just brought some clothes. While Elie and Liana who still look sleepy it just brought the goods they brought from home. It's time to go back to the town of Bluelagoon.
" It's only been a week here but it's been going a long way..." Said Zero. " Do you guys really hate headquarters?"
" Don't you know it's a mission? "
" Of course you stupid. Don't be so serious, Kayn, I'm just kidding. Kidding..." Answer Zero
This time it was not like we had arrived using land transportation. This time Zero's gonna send us using her teleport magic. So we'll get to the city in just 5 seconds.
" You're all careful. Don't do anything that stands out or is dangerous except in desperate circumstances" Ms Stephanie advised us.
" It's a pretty important mission and it's also dangerous. Take good care of yourself" said Uncle Oliver.
" good!"
" A and I forgot to say something..." Say it again "this time you will not work alone. Since your opponent is not a creature to which we belong, you will get reinforcements..."
" Relief?"
" You will know soon when the time has come."
The reinforcements yes. I've never heard of any other organization allied with us. And it also seems that judging from the situation, our reinforcements seem to be an expert group in dealing with vampires. Then they must be vampire hunters or something.
" Well, you're ready, right? I started it." said Zero.
" Now, fight the children"
" good!"
" Teleport"
The blue magic circle again appeared under our feet. I'm used to this, but it's different with Elie and Liana. They still looked amazed by this teleport magic. It looks like from their sparkling eyes.
A moment later, we instantly appeared in the middle of the city square. Precisely in front of the square fountain. Panicked, Kayn and I looked around, afraid that anyone would see us coming. But thankfully, as it was still very early in the morning there was hardly anyone around us. Totally empty.
" We.. return"
The murmur came out of Elie's mouth. It seemed like he was still a little shocked as he was able to arrive at this place as fast as lightning.
" We're back!!"
" O-oi Elie, calm down. Could be bad if anyone heard" I said. Elie immediately closed her mouth.
" It's true too..." He said "but I still can't believe it. We're back in seconds?"
" Well, that's how it is." said Liana. He's probably a little quieter than Elie. But it was still visible on his face that he was shocked as well.
" Gawat.magic is truly amazing!"
" Elie!"
Elie closed her mouth again.
" We'd better get back...." Kayn. " It would be strange if children like us early in the morning had wandered in this place".
" It's true too. Wait, what do you mean those kids were Kayn."
Instantly Elie who was mumbling was shocked as if realizing something. And of course it made us all astonished.
" What's up, Elie?"
" Z-zayn...How many days have you left?"
" Eehmm.about a week more.."
" Well, what am I supposed to tell mom and dad about this?" Elie asked a little shaky "this week, what have we done? Father and mother will ask that..."
" Huh, is that why you're shocked?"
" What do you mean just because of that?!" As soon as Elie screeched at me "there's no way I'd say that I joined you guys and practiced magic without their knowledge right?!"
" Elie, calm yourself down.."
" This is the biggest problem of my life!"
While Liana calmed the very panicked Elie, Kayn and I immediately checked around. It can be bad if suddenly someone comes and hears our conversation.
" E-elie.we should discuss it on the road. We need to get to your house" I said trying to calm him down.
" Zayn's right Elie. If you scream here can be terrible" persuaded Liana as well.
" No! I can't think straight like that!"
" Huh, what can I do" said Kayn "let me talk to your mom and dad"
" Uh? Really Kayn? Can you do it?"
" Well, at least I can do better than Zayn"
" Please ask for his help, spokesman" I patted Kayn on the shoulder.
" Alright, then let's go to my house" Elie said in a still slightly panicked tone.
" Huh.." Kayn sighed. It's obvious that he had to.
We walked to the Bathory family mansion. It takes about 20 minutes to get there from here on foot. In those 20 minutes, we all prepared ourselves.
Elie prepared with the response of her parents, as well as Liana who currently lives in the Bathory residence. Kayn thought of the words he was going to say to Elie's parents. And I prepared my heart to accept Kayn's insinuations as she talked to Elie's men later. Surely Kayn will throw insinuations and sharp words that lead to me later, it has become his habit when talking to other people. He will act like a brother who is insinuating his naughty sister. I have to prepare for that.
So far we have not met any residents. It's pretty weird. There are at least one or two people who move this early in the morning.
We finally arrived at the entrance to the mansion of the Bathory family residence. Dashingly we entered the grounds, heading towards the entrance of the mansion. Elie as the host knocked on the door of his house, answering from behind the door. A few moments later, the door opened. A maid opened the door.
" Welcome back, Miss Elizabeth "
" Yes, I'm home." replied Elie casually. I didn't think it through. How could he get used to such a welcome?
" Miss Liliana, Mr. Kayn, Mr. Zayn, please come in.."
We went inside to follow Elie. We were led to the living room and were welcome to sit in the guest chair. Meanwhile Elie and Liana entered the mansion. It seems they are going to call their father and mother. Kayn and I were forced to sit in a chair, waiting for the host to show up.
" Welcome back, Kayn, Zayn.."
" Next time, Mr. Vermount"
That person was none other than Vermount Bathory, Elie's father and head of the Bathory family. This time he came alone. There was no wife, Arthur his sister Elie or Elie and Liana. It makes me wonder where they really are.
" It looks like you guys are having fun, huh.how? Is the result satisfactory? How's Liana doing?" Ask Mr. Vermount to start a conversation.
" It's all fine. Liana is completely healed. There's nothing to worry about" Kayn said. " In addition.where are Elie and Liana?"
" Ah..they are in the room" replied Mr. Vermount "it seems Elie misses the soft mattress and his beloved doll"
Ah, I guess. Even so she is still a noble princess. In addition, during their headquarters they have tried hard to get used to sleeping on a thin mattress. It's only natural that they miss their soft mattresses.
" So, what have you been doing for the past week or so?"
" Of course treat Liana, as well as the streets " answered Kayn "ah, don't worry sir, I'm sure Elie feels very happy. After all, she's always been attached to this lover"
" K-kayn..." Mumamku annoyed.
Suddenly Mr. Vermount laughed loudly.
" I see, it turns out so. You guys are so close. This holiday is pretty fruitful. I was quite surprised when I found out Elie was going out of town. He is the hardest to get out. As his father I became a little envious" said Mr. Vermount smiling. " It looks like Elie really thinks of you as a very valuable figure, Zayn."
" N-not really..."
" Yes, that's absolutely right sir" said Kayn with a sly smile. I looked back at him annoyed.
" hahahaha, yes. I hope your relationship is good. If I could I'd just like to make you his fiancee "
" N-no Mr. Vermount, I feel I'm still not ready for it" I quickly argued.
" Haha. Well, the important thing is I'm really glad that Elie met a guy like you "
" Yes, as her brother I also feel very happy" said Kayn "as long as you know sir, Zayn is actually a very closed and anti-social person. Knowing he can be close to a girl alone has made me very happy "
" I see, you're a good brother to Kayn.."
" Well, you're overly praising me Mr. Vermount" Kayn replied with an irritating laugh.
Damn you Kayn. Even though I was prepared, I still had to endure this kind of embarrassment.
" It looks like you're going to school today. You better get ready soon. The sun is almost up." said Mr. Vermount.
Also true. We still have to continue our identity as students at that school. Although actually we could not enter with a new reason until, but silence all day was not good. I'm not like Zero could stand to do that, so we're going in today this morning. There are still a few hours to get ready.
" Ah, then we'll excuse Mr. Vermount. Thank you for the welcome " said Kayn pamit.
" Then see you" said Mr. Vermount
" Bye bye "
We went out, and left the Bathory household peacefully. Of course I'm still upset by Kayn's words.
We walked back to our temporary home in the town of Bluelagoon. After more than a week, nothing seems to have changed. So we can get ready for school quickly without any obstacles.
An hour later, we were ready to leave. Without us knowing it, ice grains fell from the sky. Forms a snowfall that falls gracefully. Looks like we're already starting to enter winter. We forgot to bring winter clothes, but luckily we were still able to overcome these cold temperatures with magic.
" Zay! Kay!"
Elie and Liana again appeared from the direction of the school gate. As if waiting for us, they immediately ran over to us.
" Ah, you guys are excited huh..." My speech.
" Of course. Besides aren't you guys cold in those thin clothes?" Ask Elie.
" Yes, it doesn't matter as long as we can use magic" Kayn said.
" Don't be. At least wear Liana's "protest gloves. He immediately gave the gloves he took out of his bag to Kayn "this is Kayn's wear"
" A-ah, thanks Liana"
" Z-zayn, this is wearing it too" I didn't think Elie was doing the same. " I-I know that you definitely didn't bring it, that's why I brought two"
To what extent do you know my movements Elie? You're like a stalker.
I wear Elie's gloves with pleasure. We immediately walked to the classroom. Me, Elie and Liana were separated from Kayn in the next class. We started our lessons as usual.
" Please attention. Today we have a new student... "
Our teacher this morning started the lesson with a surprising announcement
" ...From today on he'll be your classmate..."
A news that made my eyes wide in disbelief
"... Please introduce your name"
" good!"
The voice made me , Elie and Liana were shocked. An unexpected event. For a moment I remembered Uncle Oliver's words. "there will be 3 people I will send to the town of Bluelagoon. Kayn, Zayn, and one other person I'm still counting." that's what he said.
That guy will help us and disguise like us, meaning he's the same age as us. The only people our age in the organization are Zero, Tony, and Fiera. It's impossible for Zero to accept this offer, and so is Tony. That meant there was only one possibility who the third person was
" ...I just arrived in town this morning. Introduce it.."
And that's the person I least expected.
"... My name is Fiera Flamie, greetings"
" Fiera?!!"
"Eh? Zay!!"
