At the same time, Narukami's blood on the ground slowly evaporated as if water was exposed to extreme heat.
In the process, one can hear a steaming sound as faint, white smoke emitted from his blood and simultaneously shrank in size before finally disappearing.
"Don't be ridiculous." He got up from the bench and walked away from her. Aya didn't follow him as she thought that he was planning to leave her behind.
After what just happen, there was no way he wouldn't!
A vampire's blood was precioud. Normally, one wouldn't give it willingly to a fragile creature such as her.
How she knew this was based on a few materials she read and watch.
She did doubt that these were reliable but after seeing him walked away. She was certain that it was indeed the case.
Why would Narukami gave her was obvious. It was because she was a...
'This is for the better. If the same thing happens again. I'll probably only burden him and he might lose his interest in me. Probably will kill me to silence me.'
Better be safe than sorry, was what she thought. Aya knew of his existence as a vampire and Narukami tried to hide it.
It wouldn't be strange if he was going to kill her to prevent his identity from leaking out.
As her mind wandered, he stopped walking.
"Why are you dazing? You still haven't proven your worthiness yet. Do you think you can just run away that easily?"
Aya lifted her head as she looked in his way.
She was confused.
"You're okay with a mere human sucking your blood?"
Her butt was still on the bench but her legs wanted to get up from the bench and followed his back.
Still, she was hesitant and will not get up off this bench until she figured out something
"So what? Don't ask me a trifling question. How about my answer instead?"
". . ."
Narukami waited for her answer but still no words coming out of her throat.
He gave her some face as she was an interesting girl, thus waiting for two minutes. Unfortunately, her mouth didn't utter a word.
"No answer, huh?" He sighed as he came into the realization that her will was only this far.
She probably contemplated if being involved with Anomalies and diving into a new world was a good idea.
She might get killed to try to get her heart back.
The fact she stopped here showed that she didn't want to risk her life because of something such as getting the organ, pumping blood back to its original position.
The thing was, even without one, she was still similar to other girls.
Alive and kicking.
Nothing bad was going to happen too if her heart wasn't in its original position.
At this point, she probably reached that conclusion and gave up, or at least that's what he thought when his body felt some kind of force from behind, a bump to be precise.
Causing his body to be slightly pushed.
Following that, he could feel a sense of warmth from his back.
He was curious as he turned his gaze to the source and found that Aya hugged his back.
"I'll come with you." Her lips seemed trembling.
"But, I… I'm a parasite! I've been living my life by leeching others. Just now, I drink your blood. I'm sorry."
"What are you?" Narukami tried to process what she was trying to say. It took a short while to discover it.
Oh, so that's what's going on...
Helped by someone whether because of the person purely wanting to help her, her beauty, or standing yet accidentally causing pressure to her mind.
"You really are a dumb human," he scratched his hair.
"This is why young girls are annoying." He added. Young girls were unstable in emotion and often prioritized it. Easily taken control by it.
"Sorry."
"Don't be, I merely talking to myself."
He sighed as he said, "you don't need to think about it. While it's a fact that vampires shouldn't give their blood to humans as it's the same as lowering your position to that of livestock. I did so because I wanted to."
In the past, there were *some* cases where humans trick naive, young vampires who didn't know the world better.
To which vampires discover this and create a rule to prohibit giving their blood to a human no matter what or their position will be no different than livestock.
If the scene where Narukami gave Aya his blood was known by others. They, vampires, will view his standing to that of livestock in an instant.
His rights as a vampire will be taken. He'll spend his day as a slave and had no freedom.
Lucky for him, he lived in human society, and should some vampires discover this.
I could simply silence them, he said to himself.
"You can rest assured. I didn't do it because of your beauty or standing. I mean, getting someone's help or asking for the help of someone to do something that you can't do doesn't mean you're a parasite."
She needed to know a simple truth.
Regardless of the fact that he didn't have the responsibility to say this, she'll be on his side for a little while.
Therefore, he had more than enough reasons to do this.
Anyway, humans weren't perfect enough that they could do anything. Why were there so many in the first place? The answer was obvious.
"If you need help, I'll come to you, and should I be in trouble, you have to aid me. As simple as that." Narukami added.
Aya faintly nodded.
Still, Narukami knew it was not going to be that simple as the both of them live in two different worlds.
Aya was only an ordinary human while Narukami was an entity that ruled the night, a being who enjoyed basking under the moonlight. A creature that loved sucking human blood.
In most cases, probably Narukami was the one who was going to help Aya and by a lot! Obviously, this was inconvenient for him.
He will and should keep this piece of thought to himself. Never be spoken out loud!
Probably Aya thought the same thing too. It was fortunate that he didn't have the ability to read minds.
Reading her expression? That was almost impossible as her face was covered by her hair. His height also played a part.
Her height was reaching to his shoulder. Additionally, she was behind him!
A vampire has a better field of vision than a human. He could see something that ordinary humans can't see.
Anyway, after hearing Narukami's words. Aya's mind abruptly recalled the past as memories flashed through her mind.
The image of her father tossed everything on the table to the floor, the words he yelled, and her mother had to hug her, to protect her from that man.
She quickly shook her head as the memories showed up and she dug her head deeper into his body, her hands were shaking.
Narukami frowned upon this. He looked around to find a seat.
The bench they sat on earlier was a bit far and there was one a few steps in front of him, under a tree.
The sidewalk slowly crowded with people as they were in the business area. People walked past them with a curious gaze.
Narukami slowly approached the nearest bench. Quite difficult to do so with a girl hugging you, limiting your movement.
At times like this, I hope I'm not a vampire, Narukami thought to himself.
He then sat with Aya hugging his sleeve on his left side and didn't have the slightest intention to let him go.
Some people who saw this scene were somehow pissed and some were clouded with envy.
Yup, most of these people were lone wolves with no girlfriend, like you.
Narukami sat with blank eyes. He didn't expect a time where he could sit on a bench with a girl beside him, and didn't want him to go away...
He remembered the past, before something like this could happen.
Most of the time, he either had to fight them, save them or even scheme them so hard they about to lose their minds.
Later, her hug loosened as Narukami caught a glimpse of her wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
Shortly thereafter, she put away the cloth as lie it on her lap.
"I'm sorry."
Narukami shook his head, "it's okay."
Looked like she calmed down.
After a short silence.
"Senpai… Am I a bother?" She asked with a hushed tone.
"Yes. Yes, you are and strictly speaking. Everyone here in this world is a bother.. You simply can't live without bothering someone."
