"Ah——, damnable...... Finally wiped it off......"

After spending a lot of effort on the stubborn stain and finally washing his face, the ancient city breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, a towel was handed out in front of such an ancient city. It was a pale blue cleaning towel.

"Please."

"Thank you."

Gu Gu reflexively took the towel and wiped his soaked face.

"Eh, Yukina!?"

Realizing the object of the towel handed, the ancient city suddenly became embarrassed.

Dressed in a junior high school uniform and carrying a guitar case on her back, Yukina stood beside the ancient city without any breath. Although the ancient city had already noticed that there was someone beside him, he didn't expect it to be Yukina.

"What the hell have you been doing until this time, senior?"

Yukina asked in a calm tone. Because she was in the back of the pillar, she couldn't see her expression. Although Yukina's voice is very smooth.

However, the extreme is the opposite. The more Yukina is like this, the more angry she becomes.

Because I was teased by shallots, I forgot about the existence of Yukina, which was the cause of the defeat of the ancient city. A self-proclaimed monitor, a state-sanctioned stalker, it is impossible for her not to spy on the actions of the ancient city after school.

"I'm sorry, I was dragged to do art homework by shallots, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

The ancient city smiled apologetically at her.

"There's no need to apologize."

Putting away the towel she had taken from the ancient city, Yukina sighed softly.

"——Is the subject of the seniors referring to putting on the waiter's costume for the Blue Feather seniors to take pictures or something?"

"Sure enough, I still saw it!?"

"After all, I'm in charge of surveillance."

Yukina said in a natural tone. Although it was as refreshing as ever, the ancient city did not miss the slightly dissatisfied voices mixed in it. In this month's relationship, Yukina's emotions that seem to be uncertain at first sight can also be grasped with a high degree of accuracy.

"Then you know that, too. It was just a prank, and I was really just a model she asked me to paint a portrait. ”

“…… Judging from the simple prank, both of them seem to enjoy it quite a bit. ”

Yukina muttered with an angry expression. Gu Gu was troubled by her envious attitude for some reason.

Your eyes see that we're having fun. The ancient city was full of black lines, and thought speechlessly.

"By the way, I happen to have something I want to discuss with you."

"Does the discussion refer to, Lan Yu's senior?"

"Hmm...... I wondered if I should tell her what I was really doing, because I didn't want to deceive her about it. ”

Hearing the explanation of the ancient city, Yukina's expression immediately became dangerous.

"That means you're dealing with Blue Feather Senpai...... Yes, is this the case? ”

“…… Desire**? ”

After hearing such an unexpected word, Gucheng was stunned and looked at Yukina for a moment. Then he realized her misunderstanding and shook his head calmly.

"No, it's not."

"Or what else is it?"

"I'm wondering if I should tell her my true identity, my identity as a vampire, my identity as the Fourth True Ancestor."

"Ah——......h

Yukina replied casually as if she had lost her strength.

For her, the ancient city was a vampire when they met. So even now the declaration says that I want to reveal this kind of thing, I don't feel it all at once.

Because of Yukina's subtle reaction, Guru's face immediately became ugly. Because he already knows Yukina's thoughts.

She was unwilling and disagreed with the ancient city to tell her true identity.

Although Yukina may not necessarily reject the ancient city, at least Yukina does not want the ancient city to tell Asa Shallot about her identity......

Still, the words have to be said......

"I don't want to cheat on her like this, it's a bit hard to cheat on my friends, or it hurts."

"Hah."

Yukina nodded with an ambiguous expression.

"It's not that I can't understand your feelings, but why does the senior suddenly think like this now?"

"That's because I don't want to put her in danger again without knowing anything, as I did last time."

The ancient city brought out the persuasive words, but at this time, his face was full of pain......

"I see, ......" seemed to understand what the ancient city said, and Yukina nodded heavily, and stopped talking.

"Even if I'm alienated by that guy because of this, there's no way around it." The ancient city laughed dryly to himself.

That's right, although vampires are not a common existence on this island, but if a friend is not registered with the demons, and it is not a concept to hide it. It's not uncommon for shallots to go berserk because of this.

Besides, the other party is also the strongest vampire in the world, the Fourth True Ancestor, the 'Earl of Luminous Darkness'!

This status bestows the ancient city with supreme glory, but it also deprives him of his most precious friend.

This is the reason for his hesitation, on the one hand, the ancient city does not want to let the shallots fall into a crisis again. On the other hand, at the same time, he doesn't want shallots to break up with him.

The ancient city is now in a dilemma, but – that's not all......

"It's just that if my true identity is exposed, it will also affect Yukina's position. So, I think it's better to discuss it with Yukina. ”

Gucheng looked at Yukina's reaction with a cautious expression. But the latter bowed his head as if he had something on his mind.

"Yes...... What...... Tell the secret that only I know to the Blue Feather senior......"

"What's wrong? Or is it ...... Really... No way...... Why..."

"No, it's not."

"No, nothing."

Yukina raised her head and stood in a neat position.

"Don't worry about me. Originally, it wasn't an identity that would have bothered me when it was announced. ”

"Yes, is that so?"

Speaking of which, Yukina is a state-qualified demon attacker, and the organization she belongs to is also an orthodox government agency. It's not something to talk about casually, but even if it's exposed, it won't be a problem. In the final analysis, she only did it because she was worried about the position of the ancient city.

"The problem is, Nagisa-chan."

"That's right."

The point of calmness to Yukina pointed out, and the ancient city hugged his head.

yes, and my own sister. The ancient city smiled self-deprecatingly.

The sister of the ancient city, Xiao Nagisha, is a resident of the Demon Special Zone, but she is very afraid of the Demon Clan. She's a severe demonphobia. And that's caused by being attacked by demons and being seriously injured near death.

Therefore, the ancient city must hide its identity.

If Nagisa knew about this, it wouldn't just be as simple as the ancient city and their siblings couldn't continue to live together, the worst-case scenario could have caused her a deep mental damage.

If this secret is revealed to shallots, then of course, the danger of the secret reaching Nagisha's ears will also increase. And Yukina is worried about that.

"In the end, is it still like this..."

He's really bad, what a bastard! I'm really a weak person! It's okay, it's impossible for him to think he can solve everything.

There is no such thing as perfection!

Weak! The ancient city, who was fully aware of his weaknesses, could only fall down by the window of the corridor without any means.

Under my nose, you can see the backyard of the junior high school illuminated by the setting sun. In the shadow of the playground and other school buildings that have become teachers, I happened to find a familiar girl, "Huh? He frowned.

"Nagisa ......?"

A small figure in a junior high school uniform. A characteristic hairstyle that ties long hair short. It shouldn't be said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, but standing there is indeed the sister of the ancient city who has just become a topic.

And beside her, there is a figure like a sports member in a jacket.

"Yes...... Confession..."

"What's wrong, senior?"

"Look." Gucheng pointed downward, and Yukina's gaze followed the direction he was pointing.

“…… It's a boy in our class. ”

In the light of the setting sun, the man in the jacket is what Yukina calls 'the boy in their class' (Meike)
