『 The Vampires 』
1st. "The Beginning of the Story"
While loud music rings in your ears, a gentle melody flows in smoothly.
The beings here play card games, drink alcohol, sing and dance.
민윤기 {SUGA}
"Royal straight flush. I won,"
Hira
"Yeah, yeah. As expected, I can't beat our great Master at poker, so as promised, here's Slain worth a million tilets."
* Tillet - the currency of the Demon World, and Slain - a check from the Demon World. These cards are made of crystal and change color depending on their value. The highest grade is red. *
민윤기 {SUGA}
"Thanks, I'll use it well."
Hira
"Please put aside the unnecessary formalities. I'd like to hear why you keep chasing money even though it's overflowing."
민윤기 {SUGA}
"Wouldn't that be fun? I can't possibly earn money and do charity work for the common people."
Hira
"That's so Masterly. Have you given up on playing love games?"
민윤기 {SUGA}
" ·· I'm long past the age of doing things that have no chance of winning, like going up against the magic barrier and crashing into it."
* To step up and crash into the magic barrier - This is a proverb from the magic world similar to the Korean proverb, "throwing an egg at a rock." *
Hira
"I see. I wonder if the number of club members has increased recently?"
민윤기 {SUGA}
"The judging has to be a bit more difficult."
Hira
"Well, what on earth do executives do?"
민윤기 {SUGA}
"I don't know."
He stole the red crystal slain into his jacket pocket, bent down, and gave a characteristically charming smile before picking up the card again.
민윤기 {SUGA}
"One more round. Call?"
"Humans are going missing."
"The disappearance of humans, what does that have to do with us?"
"Oh, I know that story too!"
"They say he was found with all his blood sucked out?"
" ·· what? "
"Tell me more."
"Wow, it's creepy to even say. So, in a nutshell, humans go missing and then one day, their corpses are suddenly found with all their blood drained!"
김태형 {V}
" ·· Hasn't that kind of human hunting been going on for a long time now?"
"That's right. But you know, even...!! "
"Even vampires have been found with all their magic drained!"
"Ah! Cut me off, Lewayne!"
김태형 {V}
"The demon world must have put in a lot of effort to erase the memories of humans."
"That's right. But those magic-sucked vampires... they're all members of our club!"
김태형 {V}
"What? Our club -?"
"Yes! What a crime it was to play love, and even we were the ones who got hurt!"
(Who?)
"Ah, so... "
민윤기 {SUGA}
"Can we interpret it as "We [Bloody Angel] are involved in something like that?"
김태형 {V}
"···! Master!"
민윤기 {SUGA}
"Why are you making such a fuss again?"
민윤기 {SUGA}
"So. Is what I heard accurate?"
"Perhaps... that will be the case, Master."
민윤기 {SUGA}
"This is starting to be a headache. What are the executives saying?"
"We're still doing well..."
민윤기 {SUGA}
"They're useless guys, huh?"
"Ahaha, all executives are like that..!"
민윤기 {SUGA}
"As a member of the Tileir class, I need to find out more about it instead of those club executives who don't do their job."
"There's no need for the Master to step forward himself...!"
민윤기 {SUGA}
"I'm not the type to be proactive enough to get out there and start messing around."
"Then how...?"
민윤기 {SUGA}
" V. You know what I'm going to do, right?"
김태형 {V}
"Yes, Master."
민윤기 {SUGA}
"I believe you will remember the little things like having to cover your face properly or changing your appearance without me having to tell you."
김태형 {V}
"Keep that in mind, Master. As long as you're in the human world with this job, even one bad photo can cause things to go horribly wrong."
민윤기 {SUGA}
"That's great. He's a vampire who makes music, isn't he?"
김태형 {V}
"Then I will go now."
민윤기 {SUGA}
"Throw away the flashy shells and only look into the real essence."
As V downed the remaining drink from the can of cola he had in his mouth and bowed his head slightly to show respect, SUGA's eyes sparkled red.
(Who?)
"Yeah... SUGA did something useless again."
(Who?)
"I should take care of my sister's business first before returning to the Demon World, you fool."
(Who?)
"Cut off that crony from the start. Don't give them even a shred of room to get rid of them."
"Yes, that's right. How much magical power have you gathered so far?"
(Who?)
"It's still not enough. I wonder how much magical power the vampire count of the 〔Anais〕 family has..."
"I'm quite looking forward to it."
