He simply looked down at Tessia with an expressionless face.

“I don’t think I can defeat them on my own. But if you help me, it would change everything. I’ve seen what you can do. You’re strong, and you never give up on a request no matter what. So please, Ian. Accept my request.”

Tessia pleaded.

Finally, Ian spoke.

“I understand your situation, Tessia.”

“Tessa. Please.”

“Right. Tessa. Perhaps as you say, I could fight the judges that are following you. I might even be able to help you get revenge against the vampires of Rusard.”

“You would definitely be able to-“

“But a request isn’t established just by asking like this. Of course, I won’t move for some petty sense of pity either.”

“…?!”

Tessia’s eyes widened.

Tapping the hand holding the sword hilt, Ian added,

“A proper request requires appropriate compensation. According to you, I’ll be fighting the entire vampire clan. How will you provide compensation worthy of that?”

“Anything, anything. I’ll give you anything. Vampires have a lot of money. If you help me get revenge, it’s all yours. I have no interest in that stuff.”

“An uncertain compensation. Besides, that’s just spoils I would rightly claim without even helping you. The fee for a request has to be something you possess, Tessa.”

Cutting off his words, Ian lowered his head.

“I’ll ask one last time, Tessa. If I accept your request, what can you give me?”

Tessia’s eyes wavered, then slowly settled, seeming to realize the only thing she had to lose was the only thing she could offer.

“…I’ll give myself, Ian.”

Finally she spoke.

Ian’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“My life is the only thing I can offer you.”

“Your life holds no value to me.”

“Then use me however you want. I’ll do whatever you say. I’ll even help with whatever you’re doing now. Just help me get my revenge once your tasks are done. You won’t stay in this northern region forever, right? Until then, keep me by your side and use me.”

“You’ll become my slave?”

“Call me whatever you want. I have no other choice, Ian. Otherwise I’ll just end up dragged back to Rusard eventually.”

“….”

“I don’t want to be treated like a mindless beast and die not even knowing who I am. Rather than that, I’ll live as your servant and slave while dreaming of revenge.”

Not completely stupid, at least.

But that didn’t mean he fully believed her words either.

“The calculation still doesn’t quite add up,” he said, looking down into her red eyes.

“Any spoils from the judges will all be mine.”

“Understood.”

“And you won’t obtain a single drop of blood essence from them.”

“…?!”

Tessia’s eyes widened for a moment.

Craving blood essences was an innate vampiric desire. Resisting it wouldn’t be easy.

But Ian’s words left no choice.

“…Understood.”

Finally Tessia answered.

Nodding, Ian reached out and swiftly pulled the dagger still embedded in her bony shoulder.

“The contract is established.”

He looked at Charlotte.

Though raising a skeptical brow, Charlotte released the hold she had on Tessia.

Rubbing her wrist as she stood, Tessia smiled.

“Thank you, Ian. I mean it.”

“Remember. If you break the contract and try to run, not just the judges but I will come after you too.”

“Of course. …Speaking of which.”

Tessia’s gaze turned to Charlotte, frowning with her arms crossed.

“This mutt seems useless now. Can I kill it?”

“Kill it if you want to die. Otherwise sit quietly.”

“…Understood.”

Though shooting Charlotte a nasty look, Tessia obediently walked over to sit by the campfire.

Glaring daggers at her back, Charlotte turned to Ian.

“You really intend to trust that filthy vampire’s promise, Ian?”

“We didn’t make a promise. We made a contract. Learn the difference now that you’re a mercenary too.”

“She’ll definitely betray us.”

Ian shrugged.

“Then you can kill her yourself. Since you brought her.”

“…?! Really?”

Charlotte’s eyes lit up.

Ian nodded.

“Yes. I don’t trust her either. So you keep watch. Make sure she doesn’t try anything underhanded.”

Looking momentarily startled, then considering it with odd anticipation, Charlotte nodded.

“If she steps out of line, I can just stab her then?”

“If the situation calls for it.”

She shouldn’t die from that much at least.

A faint smile crossed Charlotte’s face. Nodding, she abruptly turned and went to sit by the fire.

“I’ll be watching you, filthy snake. Do try and step out of line.”

“Don’t talk to me, your breath stinks.”

Though Charlotte growled, Tessia didn’t even look her way.

Watching the scene, a wry smile finally crossed Ian’s face.

It was only recently he had traveled with a holy knight of Tyr’ En and the child blessed by Lou Enter grace.

Now his companions were an assassin and a vampire fairy.

‘…Truly, the future is unpredictable.’

Muttering inwardly, Ian approached the fire and picked up his robe lying on a blanket, holding it out to Tessia.

“…?”

Tessia cocked her head, looking at him in seeming bewilderment.

Really that clueless?

Clicking his tongue, Ian spoke.

“Wear this at all times from now on. I don’t want to keep seeing you walking around naked.”
