Black Iron Magician

Chapter 429 When in Rome, Do as the Romans Do, Desuwa!

As the owner of the voice stepped forward, the figure of that person became clearer. The first thing that caught everyone’s attention was her very long silver hair. The hair is so long that it touched the floor and she has to drag it when walking. Her bangs are also long, making it impossible to see her face. However, even if they can’t see her face, they can still tell who this person is. Silver hair that is longer than her tall height. She also wears an original green maid outfit, different from those of the other vampire maids they encountered along the way. From this information, everyone here had concluded that the vampire in front of them is one of the Irygal Sisters.

「Envious, how envious…」

The muttering that could not be heard earlier can be understood at this distance. She’s holding a straw-woven doll and saying the same words like a broken radio, making Hund and the others even more cautious of her.

「Nice to meet you, Vampire-san! I’m Therese Batten, a member of the Magic Knight Order of Adelheit! I’m sorry to bother you, but are you Lilyvia-san’s sister!? Also, why are you so envious!?」

「She’s not hesitant at all, huh….」

However, as Giorgia says, Therese is operating normally.

「…… How envious, I envy everything. I envy your active spirit that you enter the personal space of someone you just met without hesitation. I envy your boldness that you call out to others without worrying about people’s eyes. I envy your large chest that as if saying that it’s the manifestation of your confidence. I’m the third sister of the Irygal Sisters, Odile Irygal. Hello envy.」

「H-Hello envy…?」

「Hello envy! She praised me a lot desuwa!」

「No, I think that’s just jealousy….」

It was in a small voice, but Odile was talking rapidly. It seems that she has a twisted personality. By the way, Odile’s breasts are modest.

「You’re a shy person like me, but I envy your small build and cute looks. My limbs are thin, so I envy your muscular body. I can only play with dolls, so I envy you who have a gallant figure of you holding a sword. Gobuu gobu gobu, gobbu gobu gobuvia.」

「Wow…. She also praised me….」

「Good for you, Wee!」

「Goobuu!」

「Umu, she praised your fashionable skin color. But don’t let your guard down, Gobuo.」

「Hey, she’s just envious, okay? Also, why the hell that vampire can speak Gobunese!? She’s so multi-talented that there’s no need to be envious!」

Despite his old body, Giorgia is doing his best as the straight man. He himself understands that this is not the time for that. However, he couldn’t help but point out the Gobunese.

「M-Multi-talented…? (Blush)」

「Ah, she’s embarrassed desuwa!」

「She’s embarrassed….」

「Gobu.」

「It seems that she’s not used to being praised.」

「I-I’m not embarrassed…! To think that you can launch such an advanced mental attack, how envious…!」

「Hey, can we just fight already?」

Most of Odile’s face is hidden by her bangs, but the change is transparent to the extent that her white skin turned reddish. Giorgia has been raising his morale, but it’s about to crushed be by the unexpected reaction of the enemy.

「Please wait, Giorgia-san! It was our first meeting, but she found so many good points about us and praised us. Envy and admiration are two sides of the same coin! She’s clumsy, but she expressed her feelings to us! We have to return the favor we received! It’s even better if we return it twice! As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do, so let’s follow her example!」

「「Ha?」」

Giorgia and Odile are dumbfounded by Therese’s sudden suggestion. Neither of them seems to understand what’s going on or what it means.

「Then, here I go! Odile-san, was it? Your hair is so long, and you look like a princess in a fairy tale desuwa! Not only your silver hair is beautiful, but it’s also well-maintained that I can see it even from here! It’s so funky that you let one part of it drag on the ground!」

「H-Hey, Miss Therese!?」

「Hund-san, Wee, you too!」

「M-Me too? Hmm, I’m not very good at talking about the opposite sex in that way, though…. You said that you envy my muscles, but your physique looks fragile and makes others want to protect you. Well… you see, I think it’s very charming.」

「I also… admire a tall person like Odile-san… who has a model-like style…」

「E-Ehhh… ah, auh…!」

Therese and the others were shooting Odile with compliments. At a glance, it seemed to be a pointless act. But surprisingly, it was very effective against Odile.

Odile has been feeling envious throughout her life. She finds and envies the strong points of other people and uses that feeling as the source of her power. But on the contrary, she’s not accustomed to being praised, and of course, she has no resistance to compliments. She can only stand still while blushing when she’s being praised like this without any mental preparation.

However, even if her weakness is being exploited, Odile is still a vampire of the Great Eight Demons class. Even she has her pride. She endures the critical verbal attacks with guts and tries to counterattack.

「M-My envy won’t yield to such sweet words――」

「――Goobu gobu gobu, gobbu gobbu! Goobububu, gobu!」

「T-T-T-T-That’s, auh… (Blush!)」

「G-Gobuo, you’re saying it that far!? How bold…! Her head is now like Haruna when she’s studying!」

Odile’s heart finally overheated and exploded. Yes, Gobuo’s ultimate pick-up line has finished her off.

「A-As expected of Gobuo-san desuwa. You understand her feelings well. I must follow your example…!」

「It even… makes me feel… embarrassed…」

「Hey, what did he say!?」

Gobuo said the most amazing thing he could have ever said.

「….. I-I-I’m going home!」

A few seconds later, Odile turned around and dashed off into the darkness at the end of the corridor while emitting black smoke from her head. It’s a victory due to the advanced tactic that completely makes the enemy loses their fighting spirit.

「…… Is it okay to say that the battle is over?」

「U-Umu, maybe.」

They defeated an overwhelmingly superior opponent without sacrificing even one person. No matter how you think about it, it’s a splendid complete victory.

「Goodbye! Also, watch your step! You will fall if you run in a hurry!」

「Ah!」

――――Thump!

A dull sound rang out from the end of the corridor. Perhaps she fell from her head, and even from the sound alone, it seemed to be quite painful.

「She fell….」

「Aah, I just told her….」

The third sister of the Irygal Sisters, Odile Irygal. She retreated from the battlefield without even using her Unique Skill, 『Bloodsucking Doll』. If she feels like it, she could fight right away, but it seems that she won’t be a threat to the members of Crocus liberation.
