Chapter 279

Episode 279 A Vampire Who Says No Blood or Tears (4)

Upon returning to the private room, the maid-servant vampire hurriedly started getting into the car.

Even though it is a small amount, it seems that the surroundings are dyed with the scent of tea, so it seems that quite luxurious tea leaves were used.

It was a vast difference from black tea that could have been made from peeling pine bark before.

Surely you didn’t prepare something like this to drink good tea on the way to the end?

Ray, who was sniffing to see if there was poison, said suspiciously.

“What are you thinking again?”

“No, I don’t think I can make Tiffria-sama’s guests drink anything.”

Such an extraordinary idea should have come from the beginning.

Ray took a sip of his tea.

Black tea at the right temperature for drinking conveys the tactile sensation on the lips.

Then, the surprisingly deep flavor lingered in the mouth, leaving only a small lingering aftertaste.

Even though I wasn’t aware of it, a sip of black tea naturally disappeared over my throat.

It’s a taste that makes your eyes widen.

This was the skill of a master who had dedicated his life to cars.

Ray was openly amazed.

“It is a touching taste.”

The fact that I have been drinking tea that is so bitter that I wonder if even bugs have been put in black tea is a lie.

Looking at him shaking his body as if he had been beaten with a secret sword by a sword master, the vampire servant shrugged his shoulders.

“I have lived for years, but this is the basics. If you want more, just tell me anytime. I’ll make you some tea.”

It was a sound I was grateful to hear after a long time.

It’s probably because I’m using my heart in return for what happened earlier.

he asked while drinking tea.

“By the way, what does the vampire named Vermata have to do with Typhria, so she always visits her in the hospital? Like the fact that something happens every time I come… I don’t think we’re on good terms.”

“…Tifria-nim is Vermat-nim’s younger sister.”

Rei’s eyebrows furrowed slightly at the maid’s words.

If you just listen to the story, you’re just a good older brother who visits your younger brother in the hospital whenever you have time.

Aren’t they really good siblings?

However, when I saw the vampire maids named Erka and Seana talking in anxious voices, I could never have thought that way.

‘It seems to be a more complicated relationship than simply saying that they are brother and sister.’

Before Ray could ask anything more, the vampire maid drew a line.

“This is all I can tell you. No matter how much I came here to treat Tiffria, I can’t tell you a lot as a human.”

“…okay.”

To be honest, there were a lot of things I wanted to ask more of.

What the hell happens to Tiffria every time Vermata comes?

And why did she not welcome her brother’s visit?

What was the intention of Vermatt to visit the hospital steadily despite the bad relationship.

Something seriously stinks.

He had only come to treat Tiffria, but in the current situation, he felt that something might interfere with his work.

It is certain that the hardship sensor that has been raised while taking care of other people’s work since Seongguk reacts fiercely.

In the end, I guess I will have no choice but to do my own research from now on.

Ray looked out the window and sipped his tea.

* * *

When Vermatt visited, Tiffria greeted him.

“You came sooner than I thought, brother.”

He glanced at her words and turned his head away.

“I can see you dying.”

“…”

I’m definitely not in good shape.

The pain comes several times a day, and I break out in a cold sweat.

However, it was impossible to express it in front of the servants of the mansion.

Tiffria just smiled silently.

“I didn’t come here to see your forced smile. Guide me.”

“…All right.”

You could use a maid, but I don’t know why she always guides you.

Are you thinking down on yourself, unconsciously or consciously?

After guiding me to the private room, I was about to go back, but Vermatt gestured.

“I want to see the human being in charge of your treatment.”

“Why is he suddenly…”

Tiffria threw a suspicious look at her, and Vermatt grinned.

“what. Since she is the person who decides the life and death of her one and only sister, she just wants to look at her face. If even an insignificant flattery gives you even a glimmer of hope, as an older brother, you should do so. But on the other hand, if you say you can’t fix it, it’s okay to punish them.”

It may have been said as a joke, but Tiffria’s complexion hardened as she heard the story.

Humans are infinitely weak. So is the body, but so is the mind.

In the face of the fear of death, no thoughts come to mind.

Of course, Vermat’s blackmail would be done very simply.

If you say one word to kill yourself during the treatment, that’s it.

Even if he refuses to give in to threats and says he will cure himself, the result is the same.

If he is killed at the hands of his brother, there will be no one who can cure this disease anymore.

Unless even a saintess is brought, she will die with constant pain every day.

Only then did Tiffria notice.

‘From the beginning, the original purpose was not to visit me in the hospital, but to be a human healer.’

I didn’t even think about it because I was distracted by the pain caused by the disease.

she gritted her teeth.

“…I can’t meet you.”

“I am not asking for your permission. I am asking where that person is now.”

“I cannot tell you.”

As she raised her axe eye and showed a firm will, Vermatt looked straight at her.

“You’ve grown quite a lot. Now he’s even fighting against his brother.”

“This is my mansion. It’s a pity if you don’t follow through, but I’ll have no choice but to send you back, leaving the hospital visit behind.”

It means to do it in moderation before kicking it out.

Vermata nodded her head unexpectedly.

“It’s a pity that you rejected your brother’s sincerity. In case there might be a threat during your treatment, I wanted to escort you, so I even mobilized the troops… It’s useless if you do this.”

At those words, Tiffria’s complexion turned blue.

“Oh brother! Have you forgotten your pact!”

“what are you talking about. I never let soldiers set foot on your territory.”

Certainly it is.

If they promised non-aggression to each other’s territory, but accompanied their troops, this is an obvious portent of factional warfare.

However, Vermata has yet to invade her territory with troops.

Not surprisingly, the pact was not broken.

However, there is no guarantee that it will not break in the future.

If a soldier strikes in the middle of treatment, it is hard to dare to deal with it.

“Is it a threat?”

“If you accept that.”

In the end, in this part, you have no choice but to step back.

Tiffria said with raised eyes.

“…great. The human is in the second annex.”

“Thank you.”

“…Brother, I will pay you back for this treatment now.”

When I spoke in a calm voice, Vermatt responded leisurely.

“Don’t expect it.”

* * *

Ray overheard their conversation.

Erasing his presence with his words, he nodded from the top of the tree.

I understood roughly how things were going.

Vermat and Tifria are the leaders of their respective factions.

Unlike Tifria, who wanted to avoid a collision as much as possible, Vermatt was quite reckless.

Since she has the meticulousness to think about the front and back and rush in, it is natural for her to get involved.

‘It must be the intention of coming to me and threatening me.’

After getting down from the tree, Ray quietly passed Vermart.

Judging by his condition, he seems quite confident in his power.

That’s also true, because he didn’t even have a single escort while wandering around the territory of the enemy faction.

When I entered the private room first, Vermatt came to visit me shortly after.

Ray pretended not to know, as if he had been in a private room all day.

“Aren’t you a lady-in-waiting? What are you doing?”

“You are that person. heard the story Are you going to heal my brother tomorrow?”

It is a known fact that Vermat and Tiffria are brother and sister.

Is that all?

I even found out that the factional fight between the two was getting worse and worse.

If he had had more time, he would have even dug up the number of clique members’ underwear.

Ray put his index finger to his lips with a face of doubt.

“Cure… You mean Tiffria?”

“okay.”

“Ugh. that’s right. Originally, I was going to spend a little more time, but things seemed urgent, so I set the schedule for tomorrow.”

When the words he knew came out, Vermat, who had a look of caution inside, was relieved.

He judged that Ray did not know anything about the faction or the details of the situation.

The cold voice calmed down.

“yes. So I came here to ask you a favor.”

“Please?”

It’s obvious even if you haven’t heard it.

They’ll either tell you to kill Tiffria in the middle of the operation or give up on her treatment.

Like watching a movie where you already know the ending, the picture of the future was roughly predicted.

However, he did not do anything foolish to show it on his face.

Vermart continued as he said.

“Remedy Tiffria no matter what. If you can’t fix it, you will die.”

In the complete opposite of what he expected, Ray let out a voice without even realizing it.

“Eh?”

Seeing that, Vermatt, thinking that he was frightened by the threat, said reassuringly.

“do not worry. Conversely, if Tiffria is safely cured, there will be no harm to you. I promise that in my name.”

“…”

Something is strange.

The situation is moving unexpectedly.

Obviously, Vermat had to order himself to kill Tiffria.

The sky must have nodded as well, thinking about it.

But can you cure me?

So what was the reason for threatening Tiffria and her faction until now?

‘Are you testing me? If not, is there any benefit from curing Tiffria?’

A few thoughts popped into my complicated mind and quickly disappeared.

No matter how you relate them, contradictions arise.

Ray asked out of curiosity.

“…Do I really just need to treat it?”

“Strange. It’s normal for a normal human being to tremble and say that he knows…”

“I haven’t heard threats once or twice because his skills are so good. I am used to this.”

In self-praise, Vermatt nodded.

Certainly, if Tiffria, who was meticulous in everything, was a human enough to bring her to the mansion, he would not be an ordinary human.

“You just need to treat it. That’s it. You do your job.”

Ray smiled once at his words.

Of course, it’s just the face.

To tell you the truth, I’m honestly reluctant.

It seems like they are playing tricks, but I feel frustrated because I don’t know.

That’s why you can’t dig the back after putting off surgery to find out.

Ray, who thought of tens of thousands of thoughts with a smile on his face, eventually accepted the offer meekly.

“My job is to heal. If you can’t fix it, you have to hit the doctor from that moment on.”

“That’s a word I like. I’m looking forward to it.”

After saying that, Vermatt left the private room.

Left alone in the room, Ray was still deep in thought.
