Vampire Game Act 2


Byooooooo (wind whips by from magical forces)
Duzell: That spell......

 

*Goooooooo* (magical power gathers)
Duzell: By doing that, you yourself......
Duzell: Why do you go to such extremes to win!

What is the point of such a victory!

 

Duzell: PHELIOS!!

 

Duzell: Grrrrrrrrrr~~! (Phelios)
*blink*

*fwap fwap* (tail hits the bed)
Duzell: A dream of a past life......

That's right

It's now a hundred and some tens of years since that time


 

Duzell: *pant pant pant*
Duzell: Chasing after Phelios' soul, this is the world I was reborn in.

And this is that Phelios' great-grand-daughter, Ishtar.
Duzell: Although they don't look at all alike
Duzell: That man (Phelios) should definitely have been reborn in one of this girl's blood relatives......

 

Duzell: Having no memory of his previous life

And even though his physical form will have changed, without fail......
Servant: Your Highness

Your Highness, please awaken
Your morning meal has been prepared
*sits up*
Ishtar: Morning meal!!

 

Ishtar: Darn, I overslept

Today, I wanted to sneak out of the castle before morning meal
And play with you and Rao in the plains near Milan village......
Duzell: In the plains?

......You're joking

Just what do you take me for...
Servant: Please hurry
Your Highness
*thwap thwap*

 

Servant: Is everything to your liking
Your Highness?
*munch*
Ishtar: Nothing wrong
*clatter*
Ishtar: This too; nothing wrong.....
*clatter*
Ishtar: Likewise......

............
*stare*

 

Ishtar: Why don't you eat!?

There's nothing wrong with any of them!!
Duzell: Nothing wrong......?
Darres: *cough*
Darres: Lady Ishtar, the kyawl

Is an animal that only feeds off of liquid foods
It has no organs to digest that sort of (solid) food.

 

Ishtar: And whose teaching are you repeating, Darres
Jill: Hahaha, the Captain had something to do at the library last night......
*silences Jill*
Darres: That sort of thing is common knowledge!
*chuckles*
Ishtar: In that case, this should be alright.
*crunch*

*roll*
Ishtar: Here
Duzell: *Ge*

 

*step step*
Keld: Good morning, Your Highness......

About your schedule......

You'll be starting with a holy magic lesson with Yujinn

Next will be etiquette followed by military strategics......
In the afternoon......
Ishtar: Enough!

 

Ishtar: What's the point of (telling me) the schedule. I'll know anyways when the time comes whether I want to or not.
*mutter*
Keld: Huh?
Darres: Lady Ishtar!
Darres: Just where and how did we go wrong

So as to raise such a spiteful girl!
Ishtar: Darretsu--

Darretsu--

 

Duzell: Holy magic......
Yujinn: Lady Ishtar
You're beautiful as always......

Even the flowers of early summer pale in comparison
*awkward silence*

 

*smiles*
Duzell: ............
Ishtar: Sensei, never mind the compliments and get on with teaching me magic.

BUT!

Make it a short spell......

That even a beginner can use......
*shake shake*

 

Ishtar: Where a single blow is deadly and can defeat the opponent.
Darres: That sort of thing again......

There is no quick and easy route to anything
Ishtar: That would be Keld's teaching wouldn't it Darres
Darres: Ish......!
Yujinn: Not at all Darres
If that's her Highness' wish, then that's the sort of thing......

 

Ishtar: Hmm

Is there a spell like that,
Yujinn
*smiles*
Yujinn: There's only one

 

Ishtar: Don't keep me in suspense, teach me
Yujinn: It's this......
*flip*
Duzell: !!
Yujinn: The spell is called "La Gamme" (self-sacrifice)

 

Darres: Yujinn!!
Ishtar: Ahh......
This is what great-grand-father used on Duzell
When they exchanged blows.
It really is short

Even I should be able to remember this one.
Yujinn: *chuckles*

 

Ishtar: But this......
Yujinn: Right
Because it converts your own life force into energy,

The caster cannot survive.
*silence*

 

Ishtar: In that case it's useless

Even if it's to save the one most dear to me
What's the point if it means losing one's own life to do so?
Yujinn: Exactly

So
What shall we do?

 

Ishtar: No choice;
Something that's frighteningly long with little effect

We'll learn the usual.
*smiles*
Yujinn: As your Highness wishes
*flip*

 

Duzell: The Holy Sword Sidia and

The "La Gamme" spell......

Just how much does Pheliosta

Reek of that man's (Phelios') things......

Will Phelios be here afterall......
*fwap fwap*
Ishtar: The one most dear eh......
*patan* (closes book)

 

*chuckles*

*lifts Duzell*
Ishtar: Tomorrow for sure, we'll slip out of the castle
And play in the fields until Darres finds us.

Right now, the meadows will be filled with blooming flowers

And butterflies too
Duzell: ............

 

Ishtar: Du-'s never seen butterflies before right?
Afterall you were born just recently.
*Hug*
Duzell: "Du-"......
Ishtar: No doubt there will be lots of time
Before Darres will find me

Darres will......
Duzell: ............?
*knock knock*
Servant: Your Highness......

I've brought the fruit and warm milk as your Highness wished,
Ishtar: Ahh, leave it over there

 

*drink*
Ishtar: Nothing wrong......
*pours*
Ishtar: Here. Drink, Du-

You ended up not eating anything right?
Duzell: Me.........?
Duzell: ............

 

Duzell: In other words......
*cautiously extends his paw*
Duzell: This is for me......
*splish*
Ishtar: Darres really is foolish
Whether they're carnivores or not

Obviously all babies need milk......

 

Ishtar: Generally, that man is......
*crunch*
Ishtar: ............!?
*poi*
Duzell: !!
Ishtar: *cough*

 

*drip splat*
Ishtar: ......There's something
wrong with......that one

......Don't eat it
Du-......
Duzell: Wrong......

Poison!?


 

Darres: Sensei, I'd like a word......

 

Yujinn: This is unusual

Usually you're glued to her Highness, the Queen
Acting on your own like this

Surely
You aren't here to court me, are you
Darres: Quit fooling around!
Yujinn: Then, what did you want

Sir Captain of the Guard

 

Darres: It's about this morning's lesson
Yujinn: This morning's......?

Ahh......

In other words a lecture over showing her Highness the "La Gamme" spell
Darres: If you know, then why'd you show her that sort of thing!
Yujinn: Darres......

There's no need to get so angry
You heard her Highness' response too, didn't you?

 

Yujinn: The "Ishtar" that you and the old man Keld raised,
Unlike Phelios who so easily threw his life away for others,
Is not so foolish a girl
Darres: "Ishtar"

"Phelios"

"Foolish......"
Yujinn: Her Highness, our queen, is much cooler and self-centered......
Darres: Th-
This guy--!
Darres: Just what do you know!!

 

Yujinn: ............?
Darres: What would you know

Having just come to Pheliosta a year ago......
Darres: I......

Greatly respect St Phelios

And despite appearances and bad mouthing
Most likely more than anyone else

 

Darres: She really does resemble St. Phelios

......That Lady Ishtar is
Darres: Yes, probably......

Above all

In that "foolish" aspect!
Yujinn: Darres......

 

?: Somebody--!
The Lady Ishtar is-...!!


 

?: Just which state's spy!?

In any case
Someone within Phelios' bloodline......

 

?: No doubt it's the act of someone who would be able to obtain the throne

Should Lady Ishtar die

?: Ever since she was young
She's had small doses of so many different poisons given to her
That she's built up a lot of immunity......

That there was still a poison that could affect Lady Ishtar...

 

?: That's why,
I asked her to get herself a taster for the third time......

And yet......
After we lost the third taster......

She absolutely refused......
"Nothing wrong......"

 

"Here. Drink, Du-"

"You ended up not eating anything right?"


 

"There's something wrong with that one"

"Don't eat it Du-......"
