『I see. That priest is a capable Vampire-hunter, huh… Next I want to know about the Five-colored Blades, but before that… This is a good time, so let’s have a meal first.』

He had the Undead bring one of the three male hunters forward.

「W-what is this? You’re making me your subordinate? We’ll definitely be helpful to you, our skills with a bow are well-known around Evbejia… Hyiih! We’ll really be helpful, we’ll do anything for you, so please spare me!」

Bone Monkey had grabbed a hold of the man’s head so that he cannot move his neck. He was begging for his life in a high-pitched voice, but Vandalieu wasn’t listening.

His fangs plunged into the man’s neck.

「Kyaaaah!」

「Johann!」

Ignoring the screams of the man called Johann and the other hunters, he greedily devoured the blood, filling his throat with it.

『It feels greasier than rabbit’s blood, and it tastes a bit saltier as well.』

Of course, he would have preferred to be held by Darcia and drink her milk. But this was his first meal of the day, so he simply continued drinking Johann’s blood until his screaming stopped and he fell limp.

『Fu… Ah, Bone Monkey, give my back a little pat. Yeah, right there… *Burp*~』

As Vandalieu burped, he showed the now deathly-pale body of Johann to the other hunters.
