Chapter 86: Bloodsucking Girl
After the battle ended, Elsa's dragon was brought to the School healer, where most of her injury got treated.
Along the way, she and Ray were chatting for a while, where she mostly thanked Ray. If not for Ray, the Fairy Dragon Injuries would be a lot worse.
??
" By the way, Ray, what do you think about Jean-senpai?"1
" Hmm, me? Haven't I told everyone what I think about her during the battle?"
" Humph, like I would believe you."
Elsa said that while sticking out her tongue, making the impression of a cute, mischievous girl.
" Well, it's up to you to believe it or not. Though I must admit that I somewhat admire her noble mindset."
Soon the two reached the School Pharmacy where the dragon was being treated, so Ray said goodbye to Elsa and decided to go for a stroll along the school.
Rena and Aiko haven't finished their battle session yet.
From what Ray heard from the passerby, it seems the two had won every battle in the first year and now proceed to challenge the second year.
It was not that strange if you consider their spirit beasts strength. Alice is one of the strongest Aoe and burst damage attackers, while Kentucky could provide sustainability and will be a good all-rounder.
So now Ray finally had some free time. Many people in his last world dreamed of a harem, but they never knew how difficult it was to manage such a big harem. He almost had no free time since almost all of his time was spent on the girl or the spirit beast.
And just when he thought he was finally free, he noticed that he was getting tailed.
'*Sigh* Can't I just get some rest?'
Ray immediately rushed into the abandoned building behind the school. It was a bit strange that the building wasn't torn down yet, but it really worked in his favor.
Noticing Ray suddenly increased his pace, the tailer also increased her pace. The two kept their distance until they eventually reached the abandoned building.
" Come out. I know you are there."
Ray shouted at his tailer, and from behind the tree, the tailer revealed her figure.
' You really never give me a rest, don't you.'
Unsurprisingly, the figure was Jean. She had tailed Ray from when Ray left the training ground, but she waited until Ray was alone to reveal herself.
" Ray Vermillion, isn't it? I am here to give my thanks for today's battle."
"…"
" What? Is there something wrong in my word?"
" *Sigh* There's nothing. It's just, why must you be so far from me to say thank you. The distance between us is about 6 meters. Do you hate me that much?"
Eh… Ray's words made Jean blushed. Most of her friends didn't like her to get that close to them. Even her partner in today's battle, the side character B, was only standing that close to her because it was the rule of the spar.
" Umm, aren't you afraid of me? I am the bloodsucking woman, you know? Every person that gets close to me ended up dying or no better than that. Don't you see in today's battle that most of them hated me?"
Jean tried to explain, but her voice was getting smaller with each word. It seems like she couldn't hold the loneliness she felt in her heart anymore.
Because she was too flustered and kept her head down, Jean was unaware that Ray had been moving closer to her. And when she looked in Ray's direction, she could feel a warm hand on her head.
" Stupid, why should I be afraid of you."

[ DING!!! Jean Adiratna affection +15]
.
" Eh… really? But… won't your image be bad if you get closer to me?"
Ray looked at Jean and shook his head. This girl's esteem was way too low. He still didn't understand how such a meek girl like her could be the sequel's villain. There must be something fishy here.
" I don't care about the other's thought. But if you don't want to be friends with me, then there's nothing I could do."
" Tell me, will you be my friend?"
Ray lowered his hand from Jean's head, and he looked directly at her eyes, making the poor girl went awawa.
Hearing Ray's word, she became more flustered and tried to hide, but when she glanced at Ray's eyes, she could see a deep conviction there. She gulped her saliva and slowly nodded at Ray.
" Nice, then since we are already friend, should we introduce ourself properly? My name is Ray, Ray Vermillion. A student of class 10-3. Currently having two spirit beasts, a cat, and silly natto. Come out Chongky and Schwarz."
Chongky and Schwarz suddenly appeared out of thin air, and Schwarz jumped on Ray's shoulder while Chongky happily hopped around them.
" Now it's your turn."
" Ye-yes…"
Jean took a deep breath, and she summoned the Vampire baroness.
" My name is Jean Adiratna, from class 11-1. My spirit beast is the Vampire baroness."
She tried her best to have a proper introduction, but her words were so stiff. It appears that she wasn't really used to things like this.
" Whaaa, what a pretty spirit beast. We have been in a battle before, but it is really the first time for me seeing a humanoid spirit beast."
Ray's words weren't false. From the 1000 years of Daoist history until the recent spiritual awakening, the number of humanoid spirit beasts could be counted by hand. Most of them would be at least a general-level spirit beast.
Looking at the rare and beautiful Vampire baroness, Ray couldn't hold himself back. He tried to touch the Vampire baroness. But just when he was about to touch her hand…
" Don't!!!"
However, it was too late. Ray had touched the Vampire baroness's hand, and he could feel his vitality was slowly diminished.
" This…"
" I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."
Jean recalled the Vampire baroness as quickly as possible, and after saying those words, she ran away as fast as she could.
I don't know why, but I feel weird about calling someone older just by their name .-.
Which one do you guys like better, with Senpai or not?
