HH Chapter 13
by Geli Cake“The room……”
Seeing Yur’s stunned expression, Chahyun replied bashfully,
“Isn’t it nice? It’s the room I’ll be using for a while, so I cleaned it up all night!”

With a strange smile, he accepted the steaming meal from Yur.
From now on…?

‘What does he mean?’
Yur felt a chill at his meaningful words. Unless he tried to escape from the house on his own secretly, they couldn’t lay a hand on the guest. This meant he was confined to the mansion. He must be aware of his own situation…

‘Why is he so carefree?’
Yur reported everything she saw and heard to the other servants. While they put their heads together, plotting ways to indirectly get back at Chahyun, Yulia rushed into the kitchen again, shouting,

“What do we do! The guest left food in front of the Young Master’s room again!”
“What?”

He was still complaining even after they brought him a proper meal! They couldn’t understand what he was thinking. What benefit would he gain from provoking the Young Master?
‘Head Butler… I hope you return soon.’

Yur desperately wanted to see Miss Christine, whom she hadn’t even met yet.

A few days later, the head butler returned to the mansion with my client, Christine.
As she walked through the garden, she spotted me enjoying the view from the open window and waved with a peculiar expression.

“Oh my, Mr. Mage.”
“Hello!”

“Fancy seeing you here again? By the way, to find this place so quickly… you’re even more amazing than the rumors say.”
Hahaha. I chuckled weakly at her compliment.

“You flatter me! But did you come alone?”
“Yes, I came alone. My husband… isn’t on good terms with Haylan.”

She covered her mouth and laughed.
Why are the vampires in this game so full of animosity towards their own kind? They’re not even on good terms even though they’re both half-vampires…. That’s news to me.

‘Wasn’t Odin supposed to be a messenger pigeon or something?’
He was such a minor character that he barely appeared after the initial scene.

In the game, the player exchanges letters with Odin to hear news about the outside world. Since he’s also a half-vampire like Haylan, his letters contained information about the vampires’ movements.
I immediately ran down to the first floor and bowed to Christine as she entered the building. She looked around the mansion and then pursed her lips, as if displeased with something.

I felt a sense of camaraderie with Christine, who shared my views. I was about to explain to her that this was a horror game setting, so the gloominess couldn’t be helped, but I stopped myself.
“By the way, your vice-captain was looking for you. It seems you left without saying anything.”

Ryzen. I had cheekily provoked him and run away, so he must be furious by now…
“D-Did he seem very angry?”

“Angry? ……Well, it seemed more like your colleagues were worried because they couldn’t reach you. Why are you still here?”
Well, because I’m trapped here…. I just smiled awkwardly without saying anything.

“There was a bit of a misunderstanding.”
They won’t even let me send a letter outside, let alone return to the mercenary group, so how am I supposed to contact them…?

She seemed to immediately understand my situation from that one sentence. Christine looked a little surprised, then furrowed her brows and apologized.
“I’m sorry, ……Haylan is a bit like that. I’ll talk to him.”

As if anything would change just because she talks to him? I nodded without much expectation and then faced Haylan together with Christine.
“Haylan, it’s been a while.”

“…….”
Christine stood up from her chair and greeted Haylan warmly. I awkwardly stood up as well, and Haylan frowned at me.

[Haylan’s affection points have decreased. -1]
What, why, kid?

I didn’t want to intrude on their family reunion either but Christine dragged me here. I felt so wronged.
“…Christine, how have you been?”

I almost cried out in surprise at Haylan’s softened expression, completely different from when he looked at me. I realized only now that he could actually smile so brightly, like a real child, with that face!
Who is this person?

While I was in shock, the two caught up, exchanging greetings and talking about what they had been up to. Haylan’s unexpectedly gentle tone, and the fact that his younger sister visited him every time she died, made them seem quite affectionate, unlike a typical sibling relationship.
“By the way, I assume you two have already introduced yourselves.”

Christine clapped her hands and asked me. Introduced… ourselves?
“Yes, of course we did.”

“I don’t think we have?”
Our voices overlapped unintentionally. Haylan glanced at me and clicked his tongue softly.

What? I was the only one who introduced myself, wasn’t I? Haylan was the one who lied, yet my honesty resulted in another decrease in affection points.
[Haylan’s current affection points are -81.]

Hey, what did I do…. How low can this go?
I grumbled inwardly.

“So you haven’t introduced yourselves? It’s alright, you can do it now! This is Chahyun. He’s the mercenary who took my request. And this is Haylan.”
“Mr. Haylan, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

“…….”
Haylan briefly grasped the tip of my hand, which I extended with a seemingly insincere smile, and then let go. As if even the slightest touch was unpleasant, his affection points decreased again. I felt a little hurt.

“Why don’t you ask why Haylan is my older brother? And you naturally address him formally… I wondered if you know something.”
Strange. Haylan wouldn’t have been the one to bring it up, would he? She smiled, her eyes crinkling, as she looked at me.

A sharp gaze, as if she was scrutinizing me. Haylan had the same look in his eyes when he first saw me.
‘They really are siblings.’

Especially their eyes….
I wondered where to begin and decided to start from the very beginning.

“I know everything.”
I repeated the story about the security magic that I’d told Haylan. Christine’s eyes widened.

I just smiled awkwardly, unable to tell her that I just climbed the wall recklessly and died once before reviving.
I told her that I already knew she was a reincarnator because the statue had told me. She seemed momentarily flustered but then accepted it.

“Then, did you hear about Haylan as well?”
“That he’s a vampire?”

Haylan’s gaze towards me sharpened at my words. He was such a wary kid.
Actually, the statue hadn’t explained things in that much detail. That was information I knew beforehand because I was a player. The statue had just reminisced about what it had witnessed, saying things like, “Back in my day…”.

The fact that I’d known about them for years was a secret I couldn’t tell anyone.
“Hmm….”

Christine rested her chin on her hand, looked at me for a long time, and then smiled.
“But do you really believe such a story?”

A strange glint appeared in her eyes. I suddenly wondered if I’d said something wrong and replayed my words in my head.

To me, this world and its people were all just a part of a game’s story. Including myself…
‘The game setting says so, so what’s there to be surprised about? Just accept it.’

However, I saw the face of a school teacher urging me to give the right answer in her gaze, as if she was saying, “So, Chahyun, tell me the correct answer.” It felt like Christine was expecting a specific response from me.
Infer the speaker’s feelings….

“…….”
Let’s think about it slowly. There are many people besides me who know about vampires. But very few know that they actually exist.

That meant that even in this world, vampires couldn’t reveal their existence openly.
Why? I thought about the reason and suddenly realized.

‘Ah! Immortality!’
People are wary of beings different from themselves. Some might envy beings who never age or die, while to others, Haylan would be an object of fear.

I finally understood what Christine was trying to say. She was curious why I didn’t find them strange!
“In my line of work, I come across all sorts of cases. If I was surprised and empathized with every single one… I wouldn’t be able to do this job.”

I parroted Ryzen’s usual words as if they were my own thoughts.

This was the truth. I can barely take care of myself, so why should I worry about others?
