chapter 33
33 – Take Courage, Grand Queen – 3
He spat out confidently. However, the one who looked full of confidence was rather Jekiel, not Christine.
Christine. Her determination was very strong.
The sweat beading all over her body clearly showed how focused she was now.
“It is the Queen’s nest.”
“know.”
“How come you don’t get out? Even though you have that much vitality.”
Christine gritted her teeth and asked. However, the answer that came back was calm.
“I said I wanted to see the truth.”
“I said so.”
“Then see.”
Whoa.
Control your breathing. Christine’s red eyes slowly sink.
Yes, you should think about that first. The truth was almost out of sight. What could be more stupid than closing your eyes now?
“Yes. Let’s see.”
Christine twisted her wrist slightly. The tip of the raised rapier pointed at Jekiel.
Despite seeing it clearly, Jekiel didn’t even move. That composure makes Christine slightly resentful.
I mean, this is a very big commitment. Does it matter to you?
The rapier’s movement is honest. It draws a straight line as much as the owner’s personality and stabs in front.
Wow!
The sound of something sharp piercing through the body. It was Jekiel who was pierced, but it was also Christine who was wide-eyed.
“…why don’t you avoid it?”
It was a stupid question, Christine knew.
Anyway, in the Queen’s nest, her rapier is indispensable. Even if you try to avoid it, it is impossible to avoid it.
However, I couldn’t help but wonder why they didn’t even try to block it.
“I think this is also your question.”
“Yes?”
“The only answer is this.”
Christine, who was stabbed to the point, bit her lip.
What she feared was gradually becoming a reality. At this rate, she will face the truth that will change the thoughts she has harbored for a thousand years.
It’s scary even when it’s expected. Even if you want it, you don’t want it.
Even she herself could not suppress this confused heart. The feelings that had not yet been resolved were scratching ruthlessly in Christine’s heart.
So, I took out another rapier and picked it up. I gave my hand as much strength as possible. to settle your mind.
Quack!
Jekiel doesn’t even move this time.
Rather, as if he felt comfortable doing this, he spewed out his breath and blood at the same time with a slightly relaxed face.
There were already two rapiers stuck in his body. Christine asks, breathing heavily.
“What do you think of me?”
“fiance.”
“I am not asking for such lies. What do you think of me?”
“What do you think… ”
Jekiel was in trouble, but the trouble didn’t last long.
“Poor you.”
“It’s a pity… ?”
Christine’s teeth gnashed as she repeated Zekiel’s answer.
He was arrogant. It was like that from the first time we met.
He looked down on and ignored everyone just because he was a vampire lord, and had no mercy for those under his command.
It was Christine who couldn’t stand it. I accepted his offer of engagement and tried my best to neutralize him by my side.
So has it changed? he hasn’t changed
Did you keep your promise to Christine? did not keep
He was a lonely vampire. So did Jekyll and so did Christine.
He acted like he had it all, but in the end, he had nothing left. In Christine’s case, she was lonely because she lost almost everything to Jekiel.
sympathized a little It was rather this side that thought that your life, which was only a shell, was pitiful.
But at the same time I hated it. Dealing with you, whose very existence is a sin, became a mission, so Christine intended to kill her directly.
However, one day he suddenly appeared on his feet.
His face at Christine’s coronation was quite different. He still looked tired and lonely, but there was something at the bottom of his eyes. A goal that was never there before. belief.
When he reappeared, he didn’t have to think deeply about what he had done.
He helped Christine. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he devoted himself to helping. But.
“Is it so?”
Because Christine, who exploited her for a thousand years and reunited after a few hundred years, has only pity and sympathy.
Did you do that just because you felt that way?
It’s pitiful.
Those words pierce Christine’s heart like an awl. Aren’t you the one who made me feel sorry for you?
This time, in the end, the impression I felt toward Jekiel was no different. He is making fun of Christine, treating her like a toy…
“Just like that. only… Did you feel that way… !”
Christine’s face contorts like a demon.

Kwaak-!
Another rapier penetrates Jekiel’s chest. As if the three were too much, Jekiel staggered, spilling blood.
“Because I’m sorry… Because I’m pitiful? Can you, can you say that to me!”
I’ve already put three of them in, but I can’t stop. Is this what it means to be swallowed up by anger?
The resentment that had accumulated over and over again finally burst. I grabbed Jekiel’s shoulder and continued to insert the rapier.

Knock-!
one. two. I put in three more, but the anger didn’t come out.
However, this time too, it was Christine’s side, not Jekiel’s, that trembled.
Finally, Jekyll collapses. Christine, who was on top of it, grabbed another rapier and widened her eyes.
Jekiel actually took care of Christine.
What kind of stupid idea was this? Then it is.
“The coexistence of the human world and the demon world… Did you say something like that to mock me? No, you must have. You are such a man!”
coo, cool.
Jekyll vomits blood. Even that wouldn’t have been easy since he was lying down.
“I mean it.”
“The lies are over now. I mean, I’m tired!”
I gripped the rapier with both hands. Just one more stab and now Jekiel will die. You will never be able to breathe again.
“…Even if you’re serious.”
As he answered, he let out a terrifying laugh. He stared at Christine, who was sitting on top of him.
“And, originally, I like pitiful things. I didn’t say pity to mock you.”
His manner of speaking was very unconcerned. It’s as if nothing happens to your body.
“If it was the sin of arrogance, I might have ridiculed it, but I am currently teaching in the human world. I am teaching my favorite students. Poor students.”
Come to think of it, when I visited Jekiel, he was at Rahal Academy. Infighting would be the goal, Christine had always thought.
“What… It is better to see it than to say it.”
At the same time, Jekiel struggled to pull something out of his bosom.
What he took out were several crumpled, blood-soaked scraps of paper.
There was no problem reading the text because it was written in blue with mana. Jekiel puts it in Christine’s hand so that she can take it and read it.
Event Horizon, Burning Buster, Plasma Chain Cutter, etc—all magic used by human wizards. And this is the manual for it.
Christine looked down at Jekiel with rather blank eyes. He had a small smile.
“It is a material used in lectures. It seems to work quite well. I recently heard a thank you from a student.”
Yes, even Christine, a vampire, could feel how thoughtful this material was.
… Why are you showing this right now? An inexplicable emotion surges through Christine’s body.
“Is that why you stopped the sin of pride?”
“right.”
“why… Didn’t you tell me?”
Blood dripped from Christine’s lips. She stares at Jekiel.
“If that was the reason, why don’t you tell me? Even if you think it’s strange, you would have welcomed it in the end, but why did you hide it so tightly… ”
“Because you are my fiancé.”
Christine stopped breathing. It was as if my heart had stopped once.
It was an ineffective and mean conversation. He talks nonchalantly, but Christine had to tremble every time she heard each word.
I almost missed the rapier. It looks like it will break again. He continues to speak very calmly.
“There are a few deaths that are unavoidable for the demon world and the human world to coexist. And in that death there is inevitably my death. How will the demon professor survive? I will die at the hands of the students I raised.”
My heart flutters every time I hear each letter.
I tried to hate this man even if it was forced. Six rapiers were also inserted. However, it seems that it was a meaningless outburst.
“The world of coexistence is finally coming. However, if you do not enjoy that world alive, it will be quite bitter for me, my fiancé.”
And then he even joked around.
“Well, by the way, it’s not the students’ hands… I could die here right now.”
I was moved because I knew the intention of the prank. Even at this moment, he was trying to ease Christine’s tension.
I remembered everything he said, but I couldn’t believe it. So he pushed Jekiel again and again.
No one would lie in a life-threatening situation. Only in this way will you be able to hear his sincerity.
However, the truth he heard from him was to keep his promise to Christine.
He kept his promise. I couldn’t doubt it anymore.
“…no.”
Christine realized that. That it wasn’t just Jekiel’s body that he stabbed and pierced with his rapier.
His hatred for him and the accumulated resentment were pierced, and his words were the decisive blow. Eventually, the core will come out.
The frozen heart melts and soars. Christine seemed to vaguely know the name of this feeling.
“You will not die here.”
Teeing, when I heard the sound of a rapier falling to the floor.
Christine lowered her head slowly. Silvery white hair covers Jekiel’s face and forms a curtain.
What you feel in the hidden field of view is a soft and fluffy sensation. I’ve felt it recently, but this time it’s a little deeper. He hugs Jekyll’s face and continues to kiss him.
Their breaths blend with each other. At some point, Christine was mingling with the man she hated more than anyone else.
“…Jekiel.”
After kissing.
Christine and Zekiel both felt better. What determines the effect of life force is each other’s attitude.
I never even imagined that this day would come.
My face is hot.
But Christine was pretty sure now. Every time I run into this guy from now on, my face will burn like this.
“My interrogation will not end in one shot. I will do it once a week.”
I will use the Queen’s Nest each time.
…That’s why, you should recover your vitality every time.
“Have you finished talking?”
“One more thing left.”
I cut off Jekyll’s words. There was still one more thing left to do.
“ring…”
Stab with a horse, not with a rapier.
“Give it back.”
After 1,500 years, Christine finally got a fiancé.
