Vampeerz ch3

p1
>>A little love story about a girl and a vampire girl.
>>"Kill me". The girl stretches out her hand with a smile.

p2
>>Ichika is greatly confused by a request from the vampire she has strangely fallen for.

>I'm sorry,
>what did you just say?

>I said
>use this sword
>and kill me.

>Y-You're kidding, right? You're not making sense.
>There's no way I can just kill someone.
>It's fine! I'm not human!

p3
>Just one thrust to the heart.
>That's all it takes.
>It won't even leave a corpse.

>...Are you serious?
>Of course I am!
>I've been waiting ages for this day
>and it's finally here.

>No, no, I can't do that...
>You can do it, Ichika!

>You're not making any sense...
>Don't sweat the small stuff.
>Please, Ichika.

p4
>Is that you, Ichika-chan?

>I knew it.
>Don't see you here often.

>Uncle Nozaki!
>Hello!!
>He's the one in charge at the moment.
>Aah...

p5
>Good day.
>Erm, who's this girl?
>Ah, she's my friend.

>Hm?
>Isn't this the shrine's...
>Nozaki-san.

>You came here to sweep, right?
>Hop to it.
>And could you clean this up while you're at it?
>...Yes, I'll get right on that.

p6
>Now, do it in one blow!

>I should've just left this behind...

>W-
>Wait a minute!
>Hm?

p7
>..Help out.
>I don't do manual labor.

>...

>..Hey, Aria-chan.

p8
>You really shouldn't do this.
>There are plenty of people who want to be alive even though they can't.
>And yet, you...

>Besides,
>it would make me sad too. We had just gotten to know each other, after all.
>If there's something worrying you, you could talk to me about it.
>Okay?

>...Hm?

p9
>Don't just disappear like that, geez!!

>Ah...

>What were her last moments like...?

p10
>She died in her sleep,

>...surrounded by her family.
>I see.

>That's a good way to go.
>I'm jealous.

p11
>Now then, back to what you promised.
>Here.
>I never promised anything like that...

>...You're surprisingly stubborn.
>I get that from my grandma...

>You won't do it?
>I won't!

>Hmph...
>...

p12
>Fine.
>It can't be helped.

>That was easy...
>Eh? So you're giving up on it?

>No, I'm not giving up.
>What the heck...?

>I'm just not in the mood to force you.
>...For now,

>could you fill up my belly?
>Huh?

p13
>Tada~

>Help yourself.
>Wah~ Looks delicious~
>Can I really eat all of this?
>I did say that it's fine.

>Yummy!
>She's so unreasonable.

>Having her fill of pancakes while telling me to kill her.
>What is it? I'm not giving you any.
>Once you've said something, you can't take it back, okay?
>And she's such a glutton...

p14
>Aria-chan just looks like she's enjoying herself.

>People who want to die would look more different... ...right?

>Why does she want to die?

>Phew~

p15
>You look glum.

>Must be Chiyo's influence.

p16
>?

>I-I stopped breathing for a sec there...
>What an adorable creature...
>R-Right out of the bath...
>Hah
>Hah

>Here we go.

>I won't let her die.

>The reason?
>There's quite a few.

p17
>But if I had to pick one...
>Pick one?
>I'll definitely persuade her.

>I'm just sick of leaving things behind...
>I guess.
>Crap, that makes no sense...

>B-But I don't really get it.
>Surely there's fun things to be had while you're alive, right?

>Well, yeah. A lot of that happened.
>So many that I can't even count.

p18
>There's probably a lot more fun things than bad.
>As you've seen for yourself, my mind is as flexible as a child's.
>That's why I've been able to have fun regardless of what era I'm in.

>That's a long time...
>...Don't you have any regrets?

>There are some things that I wasn't able to do...
>because of this body.
>It has its own inconveniences...

p19
>But that doesn't matter.

>...It doesn't look like words will reach her.
>I have no idea what she's saying.

>This sacred sword can bestow a peaceful death onto our kind.
>It needs a human to wield it, but not just anyone will do.

>Back then, Chiyo also...

p20
>...

>Why?
>I get it now.

>I-I love you...
>so
>I don't want you to die.

>But we literally just met...
>It was love at first sight!
>You know I'm a girl, right?
>I know that...!!
>...You're delusional.
>No, I'm not!
>It's like my grandma told me.

p21
>I should let my heart decide who's right for me.
>That's why...
>Then kill me.

>...Huh?
>You love me, right?

>If you love someone, you should grant their wishes.
>Isn't that right?

>Wha?
>Why yoooou

p22
>Please stop!!

>Come on!
>I've been waiting forever...

>I'm not doing it!!

p23
>I'm begging you...

>I know this is a childish thing to do.
>I'm a child who has a tantrum whenever she is unable to express her feelings.
>She'll probably hate me for this.
>That's fine.
>I don't understand what's so sad about living forever.

p25
>This is for the best...

>When I came out of the shrine, Aria-chan was gone.

p26
>Icchan~ Let's go home~
>Hey~ Ichika-chwan~.

>...You've been acting strange all week.
>Is this about your grandma?
>Nah, I'm fine.
>It's nothing.

>...Which means it's a broken heart.
>Uuh...

>No. That's not it...
>No way~<3 Icchan the late-bloomerest?
>Tell me all about it~<3
>>The late-bloomerest

p27
>I won't tell anyone!!
>Oh, you'll tell. You'll definitely tell.
>This girl...

>Bye-bye~.
>Tell me about it tomorrow, okay~
>I said it's nothing!

>Geez... that Maho.
>I wanna go home and eat some pudding.

p28
>?

>What's all this?

>Oh, welcome back, Ichika.
>Hey, Mom. What's with the truck?
>What, you ask?
>Heh?

p29
>Isn't it obvious?

>Ichika's home.

p30
>Hey.
>Sorry for scaring you the other day.
>!?
>Eh? Did something happen, Jirou-kun?

>Over here.
>Hmm.

>Hey.

p31
>I ran into some delays moving here.
>This is a war of attrition.

p32
>I'm the one who wants to cry here.

>>She moved in so she could get killed. I don't understand the complicated stuff, but I'm happy that we're together.
