Love Letter From The Future

7. Jealousy is my strength (18)

In the meantime, Seria had to endure unfair treatment.

It was mainly because of the one-sided argument of Delphine, the older sister she hated. Delphine, who was serving as the de facto head of household, had entrusted Seria with an important mission.

‘Tease Ian.’

It was Seria who had not even had a few friends, let alone a boyfriend, all her life. Of course, he had no idea what to do, but as a vassal of Yurdina, there was no way he could disobey the head of the household.

More than anything, it was what Seria wanted from the bottom of her heart.

Seria, who made up her mind and left the family, soon had to have a place to report her achievements.

There was no need to go back to the North. Yurdina’s servants were located throughout the empire, and with their help, it was possible to communicate with the family head in real time.

The first report to Delphine started with Seria’s new treasure.

A limited edition Ian doll handed over by Princess Shien.

Delphine, who witnessed this, had to remain silent for a long time. Regardless of whether or not, Seria’s excited voice continued to brag without notice.

Finally, Delphine’s eyelids closed tightly.

“Wait, wait… Seria, can we talk to you again?”

“Yeah?”

What else is this bitch trying to find fault with?

Seria tilted her head with such pure intentions. I was afraid that this devil-like woman might steal my achievements, so I kept my eyes full of vigilance.

Unable to overcome the headache, Delphine’s hand touched my forehead.

“You’re not saying you skipped your chance to dance at the ball because of one doll, right?”

“That’s just a doll!”

The voice of Seria, who could not overcome her tearful heart, naturally rose.

The more he did, the more Delphine’s expression grew darker.

“It’s a limited edition that only three exist in this world! For your information, I really like the detailed description of this collar, especially the fact that it even calculated the direction of the bloodstains… … .”

“… … I.”

It was around that time that Seria’s voice stopped muttering.

Biting her lips, Delphine let out a painful tone.

It was the first sight Seria had ever seen in her life.

How could that older sister make such a regretful face?

“I raised you wrong. I didn’t pay too much attention… I can’t believe I’ve gotten this far.”

Seeing that blatant accusation, Seria’s expression turned dumb for an instant.

“Mo, are you ugly?”

“Yes, ugly… You’re at the level of a potato who can’t say you’re ignorant about dating. If I had to define it in one word. You could call it an ‘ugly potato’.”

After becoming an ‘ugly potato’ out of nowhere, Seria’s face became even more heartbroken.

The moment Seria clenched her fist, she was about to retort.

“I guess I should teach you.”

It was a tone of firm determination.

Delphine’s stubbornness with such a face could not be broken by anyone. Seria was also well aware of that fact, but her anger preceded the enemy’s stare at something pitiful.

yes, foe

Looking back, it has been like that since childhood. Delphine has lived as a possessor, and Seria has been deprived of everything. The sword I wanted, the friend I wanted, and even my mother.

In fact, I didn’t have many memories of my mother who was kicked out.

However, as she grew older, Seria naturally had no choice but to understand. The fact that the decision must have been made after much consideration by Marquis Yurdina in order to further solidify the position of the successor to Delphine, who had lost her mother early due to illness.

I didn’t know that I was even more angry.

I feel like I’m going to lose someone precious like that day.

With Ian’s help, she was victorious in the hunting festival, but the nightmare that plagued the girl for the rest of her life could not suddenly disappear.

A cold mockery appeared on Seria’s lips as she slowly retraced her feelings.

“What are you trying to teach me? How to seduce a man by rolling a vulgar body?”

“yes.”

But Delphine’s reaction was unexpectedly calm. Seria was taken aback and was at a loss for words.

Delphine had already made up her mind.

“Did you forget, Seria? What Yurdina pursues is victory. Whether it’s a fair victory or a mean victory, victory is always right… But what are you doing now? Excluding the childhood friend whose name I don’t remember, among us, you were the first to come into contact with Seo-Bang-nim, weren’t you?”

“That, that… … .”

It was word for word.

Seria, unable to find anything to refute, hesitated and lowered her gaze. Seria is still Seria, although it has become a bit more ferocious than before.

I couldn’t completely cast off my inborn nature.

“So, do as I say, before you erect the ‘Eternal Maiden’ statue in the middle of Yurdina Castle… By the way, the pedestal will have ‘In memory of my sister, Seria’ engraved.”

Seria had no way to erase her feelings of injustice, but what could she do?

In the Yurdina family, the authority of the head of household was absolute. Like all other aristocratic families.

After all, from that day on, Seria was forced to sit in front of the crystal ball for more than an hour a day.

The skills that Delphine taught were very manly.

Acting cute, pretending to be a coincidence, making physical contact, intentionally reducing distance to make the other person’s heart flutter.

There was nothing unfamiliar about it.

A few days to endure such shame.

Seria, who couldn’t stand it any longer, decided to visit her only friend.

Celine Haster.

She was Ian’s childhood friend and one of the few women who had known Ian longer than Seria.

He was also Seria’s love interest.

It was clear, however, that the two cared deeply for each other. Celine and Seria used to hang out together and formed a friendship while training together.

So Seria believed.

Delphine, the saintess, and even Elsie were in the middle of establishing a new relationship with Ian. As the two of them were lagging behind in something, they thought that by exchanging information, they would be able to make a new breakthrough.

However, the friend’s residence, which he visited with such expectations, had already been visited by passengers.

It was a strange landscape.

Celine was detained at her home for making a contract with the Dark Church. Of course, there should be guards guarding the entrance, but I couldn’t find any sign of the living.

I didn’t even have to go in.

You’re late.

It was a disappearance. As expected, only a few strands of gray hair remained in the dungeon where Celine was supposed to be staying.

It’s strange.

Seria thought so.

There is no denying the possibility that the Dark Church may have intervened in some way, but Celine had already confided her circumstances to Seria several times.

A girl with ‘black hair’ that I’ve been seeing for some time.

If that statement is true, there is no reason for gray hair to remain.

It was from then.

A strange intuition began to guide Seria. It was to the point where I couldn’t even make that simple decision that I should notify others and start tracking.

Meet Ian and see the results of his rigorous training.

Normally, my heart was pounding so I couldn’t do it properly. On the way, his face turned red and he must have bit his tongue.

Still, something was strange.

The exhilarating pleasure of a heated needle penetrating the spine, and a sloppy yet cold feeling rose up in my heart.

Before long, the road leads to a secret place in the forest.

Before I knew it, Ian was chasing Seria with a serious expression on his face. Seria, who had been walking as if possessed, stopped in a place where a strangely sweet scent vibrated.

Seria saw it there.

“… … hem?”

Gray hair, blue eyes.

“What are you?”

A color that reminds me of my mother, which I lost as a child.

**

Seria is weird.

It didn’t take long to notice that fact. The experience of crossing the dead line several times with Seria was not a form. Realizing the ideals of colleagues was one of the basic qualities.

Today, Seria showed a particularly friendly attitude.

Even subtly grabbing my sleeves or even talking charmingly.

The decisive remark came next.

“I went to visit Miss Hastur, but I heard that she is missing. Then, since I ran into senior Ian, I would like to thank Miss Hastur… … .”

I didn’t know at first.

It was because it was an ambassador Seria would normally do. It was her who did not know whether to call it obsession or madness, whose emotions were particularly amplified.

Even if it was a strange reaction, I had no choice but to do it.

But, looking back, isn’t it strange?

I came to find Celine, but I didn’t show any interest in Celine. In addition, the dark church’s contractor was missing, and the academy was too quiet.

Does it make sense?

Also, there was no hesitation in Seria’s footsteps. It was an attitude that only those with strange convictions could have.

And at this point, I remembered another fact.

Seria’s mother is a vampire blood relative.

The story he heard in the north suddenly heated up his spine.

My mouth was naturally silent. For several minutes, I followed Seria without saying anything.

Seria, who clung to me from time to time, showed no reaction from a certain point on. It was just that he moved his steps in a daze and headed towards the forest located to the south of the academy.

The route was odd.

Going around the same location, or deliberately detouring a road that could have been walked in a straight line.

But in the meantime, I never uttered a single word of complaint.

The reason was simple.

It was because the atmosphere around her changed from moment to moment whenever Seria behaved in such a strange way.

The temperature, humidity, and even the smell that tickled the tip of the nose were changing wildly.

and the end of the march.

I was hiding behind a tree, holding my breath.

“… … yes? What are you?”

It was a clearing filled with the delicate scent of flowers.

Every time the artificial scent stung my nose, my mind was clouded. It seemed obvious that some dangerous gas was pervasive around here.

And I was standing in the middle of it.

It was a woman with gray hair and blue eyes. The bobbed hair and the scar that passed through his right eye were telling of an uneven past.

A blood relative of a vampire.

Sensing something, I hoped that Seria would not come to her senses.

I could have fallen into an even more difficult situation if I had regained my reason.

But Seria mercilessly betrayed my expectations.

“Uh, uh… … ?”

A bewildered question escaped the girl’s lips.

At the same time, the magical atmosphere surrounding Seria instantly subsided. Seeing her looking around and trying to figure out the situation, it seemed that her memory was ambiguous.

So I secretly sent out a coy wave.

It meant please stay calm.

Fortunately, Seria only recognized the signal.

Seria’s body, which flinched and trembled, stiffened. It looked like he couldn’t even guess what kind of response he was supposed to respond to.

What should I do?

I couldn’t miss such a good opportunity. Isn’t it the first time I’ve seen a blood relative of a vampire I’ve never seen before.

It would be nice if I could pull out some information.

After all, is torture the only answer?

That’s how I moved my hand to the waist dance.

“Are you not answering? Who are you, I ask… what?”

Unhappy or fortunate.

The blood relatives of the vampire tilted their heads. When she turned her attention, I quickly glanced around the area.

invisible

At least Celine wasn’t here. It was the reason why information was desperately needed.

But is the angel really looking down on us?

“What, are you sisters too? tell me sooner! You almost got it wrong, ahahahaha!”

The vampire’s blood relative burst out laughing like that, and then put their arm on Seria’s shoulder, who was stiff.

It was an expression of intimacy.

And before Seria flinched and reacted.

“So, did you bring ‘Bob’? Everyone is waiting… … .”

Seria’s body froze again at the unfamiliar topic.

It was a yard that I couldn’t even figure out the proper circumstances. To be asked such an incomprehensible question when it is difficult to recall memories that have become blurred right away.

It was before the vampire had yet to abate any suspicion.

My head started spinning tight. Considering Seria’s sociability, which she had seen before, the possibility of appropriate improvisation was slim.

In the end, there was only one conclusion I could draw.

“… … Quack.”

Letting out an extremely artificial sound, I pretended to faint and closed my eyes and collapsed.

To be honest, it was a gamble with a higher chance of failure. It was the yard where my name spread not only to the Dark Church, but to the entire continent. There was no guarantee that my identity would not be exposed.

However, there was one corner that I believed in.

“Hmm… … .”

Soon, blue eyes began to scan my entire body. Even in the meantime, Seria secretly brought her hand to the handle of the sword.

If the opponent threatens me, it seems like he will kill me right away.

Fortunately, Seria’s determination did not translate into action.

“… … Okay, good quality food? Our sisters will be delighted!”

Because, even the blood relatives of the vampires were blind in their left eye.

And I’m a high expert.

It was nothing like impersonating a corpse.

Seria also tried her best to respond to my intentions.

“Yes, yes heh… ugh… yes!”

I accidentally bit my tongue.

No matter what anyone says, Seria was Seria.
