32.

 

“Ah.”

 

Clang!

 

With a crisp sound, Ju Sohui’s fan struck down on the girl’s crown.

 

Ju Sohui frowned and scolded in a cold tone.

 

“Just because you have a mouth doesn’t mean you should spout such vulgar remarks.”

 

“I thought it was a brilliant joke.”

 

“Don’t use such crude material for your jokes.”

 

“I’ll think of something funnier next time.”

 

“That’s not the point, haah…”

 

My eyes went back and forth between the girl and Ju Sohui’s confrontation.

 

“Um, so what exactly is this situation right now? She’s not really your sister, right? Right?”

 

“How could that be? Well, if you trace it back, we might be distant blood relatives.”

 

“The Dang Family has always hoped to be bound by blood with Danzu-nim.”

 

“…Dang Family?”

 

Seeing my confused expression, the girl blinked her sly eyes. She clearly had a cunning face, but somehow her actions were utterly foolish.

 

“I’m called Dangsoso. Somehow I died and became a Blood Jiangshi.”

 

“Blood Jiangshi? …Ah!”

 

I was so shocked by the revelation that they were sisters of different fathers (or not) that I momentarily missed it, but now I noticed a faint scent of blood whenever the girl spoke.

 

Her complexion was also so pale that you couldn’t find a trace of healthy color. Yet she maintained her own consciousness and preserved her memories from life intact – this was exactly the kind of Blood Jiangshi that Makyō used to create.

 

‘A Blood Jiangshi with consciousness isn’t easy to make. How fascinating.’

 

To create a demonic creature of that level, not only the master but also the person who becomes the material must be exceptionally talented.

 

There were many blood demons but few jiangshi, and proper Blood Jiangshi were even rarer for this reason.

 

I paused while quietly admiring this.

 

‘Was I too nonchalant?’

 

In truth, whether blood demon or Blood Jiangshi, I didn’t care as long as they didn’t attack first, but normally in the martial world, such demonic creatures were top priority targets for elimination. I only rolled my eyes slightly to gauge Ju Sohui’s reaction.

 

However, rather than reproaching me, she seemed to have her mind complicated with other thoughts. Ju Sohui looked at Dangsoso and sighed deeply.

 

“Sigh, this has become troublesome. In any case, I’ll have to inform the Dang Patriarch about your condition.”

 

“Do you really have to?”

 

“I must.”

 

Her light brown eyes sank deeply. She spoke to Dangsoso with a serious expression.

 

“All parents who’ve lost children feel the same way. Being safe is the first priority, but they want to know any news somehow. No news isn’t good news.”

 

“…”

 

The girl seemed lost in thought after hearing those words. Ju Sohui, who had been quietly watching Dangsoso, soon handed me a piece of yellow paper.

 

“What’s this?”

 

“That child’s lifeline. I have to go inform the Alliance of your condition, so if she turns hostile, tear the paper.”

 

“Gack.”

 

I heard her say to kill her if she didn’t behave, right in front of the person in question.

 

I coughed dryly and glanced at Dangsoso. But Ju Sohui didn’t seem particularly concerned.

 

“Don’t worry about it too much. Blood Jiangshi only carry memories from life anyway – in reality, they’re just demonic creatures. They’re not human, so there’s nothing to pity.”

 

She says that, but if Blood Jiangshi Pengdori appeared, she’d probably dote on him.

 

I nodded for now. Then Ju Sohui gently stroked my cheek with a tender touch.

 

“There’s Noegae and an Alliance member nearby, so don’t worry too much. I’ll return before two hours pass.”

 

“Yes. Have a safe trip.”

 

After receiving my farewell, Ju Sohui quickly disappeared.

 

Thanks to that, only the non-human Miss Dangsoso and I remained in the room. I asked out of curiosity.

 

“What you just said, is it really true?”

 

“I don’t really know. Honestly, I can’t remember well how I was before I died. Dangsoso’s memories are also fragmentary.”

 

“Then aren’t you afraid of dying?”

 

“I wonder.”

 

Dangsoso blinked quietly.

 

After thinking for a moment, she soon gave her answer.

 

“It doesn’t seem to matter much. I’m not alive now anyway.”

 

“But you talk and move.”

 

“When Cheonryun Sinmago was alive, my consciousness cut out many times. I’d move again after replenishing martial energy, but not for long.”

 

“Ah. So you belonged to that side.”

 

No wonder I hadn’t seen this Blood Jiangshi before – she was from the Blood Sect.

 

‘Are Blood Jiangshi really not human?’

 

It was a topic I’d never thought about when this was a game. It was the same even after I became Pengdori (damn it).

 

“Ah, that’s right!”

 

I exclaimed as something I was curious about finally came to mind. Rummaging through my clothes, I pulled out the iron plaque with the character “Heaven” that I’d received from the woman in purple in Hunan.

 

“Miss Dang, do you happen to know what this plaque is used for?”

 

“Th-this!”

 

Dangsoso’s eyes widened.

 

I asked with anticipation.

 

“Is it an amazing item?”

 

“No?”

 

Then why were you surprised!

 

“I just tried being surprised once.”

 

“Ugh.”

 

“The Sword Emperor would probably know.”

 

That makes sense.

 

Convinced by Dangsoso’s words, I decided to wait quietly for Ju Sohui. Conveniently, there were also sweets in the room.

 

I don’t particularly like sweet things, but since it had been a while, they were more edible than expected. While nibbling on the sweets, I spoke to Dangsoso who was just standing there blankly.

 

“Miss Dang, aren’t you going to eat?”

 

“I can live without eating.”

 

“Still, it’s nice to eat together. It would probably be perfect for a child’s taste.”

 

She said she was fifteen, but she looked even younger than that.

 

When I pressed a sweet into her hand, Dangsoso looked down at it for a moment, then took a bite.

 

Then she chewed thoughtfully.

 

Her chewy cheek puffed out to one side, looking quite adorable.

 

“It has no taste at all.”

 

But then she stuck out her tongue and spat out the sweet with a “bleh.”

 

I grimaced at the sight of the saliva-covered former sweet.

 

“Just because it has no taste doesn’t mean you have to spit it out.”

 

“It felt strange. Wouldn’t Miss spit it out if a piece of wood got in her mouth?”

 

“Well, I would spit that out, but…”

 

It would indeed be strange to eat a tasteless and odorless sweet.

 

I put down the half-eaten sweet with an awkward expression. Seeing this, Dangsoso sniffed with her nose.

 

“It does smell sweet?”

 

“Yes.”

 

“Would you like to smell it at least?”

 

“Should I?”

 

I was about to hand over the remaining sweet when Dangsoso suddenly buried her nose in my thigh. I jumped up in shock.

 

“Wh-wh-what are you doing!”

 

“It smelled sweet.”

 

“Get away from me!”

 

“Yes.”

 

She listens well when told.

 

Although I was carrying the paper, without needing to threaten her, Dangsoso quickly moved away from me.

 

But just smacking her lips and savoring the taste.

 

“Can’t I have just a drop of blood?”

 

“Would that work?”

 

“I’m hungry.”

 

The candy once.

 

My thigh once.

 

My face again once.

 

Dangsoso looked back and forth with pitiful eyes like an abandoned cat. Seeing her like a starving animal, I became uncertain and asked.

 

“Don’t blood jiangshi not feel hunger?”

 

I didn’t remember Makyō feeding the blood jiangshi anything in particular. At my question, Dangsoso nodded.

 

“That’s true.”

 

“What.”

 

What’s with this habitual liar.

 

When I narrowed my eyes, Dangsoso made a pitiful expression again and made excuses.

 

“Even if I’m not hungry, I might still want to eat snacks.”

 

“That makes sense too.”

 

I was convinced.

 

After thinking for a moment, I soon gestured to her. After all, even if she’s a blood jiangshi, she looks like a cute girl on the outside, and I carried her around like a totem in the game too.

 

“Then I’ll give you just a little. If you suck too much, I’ll blow your head off, okay?”

 

“Yes.”

 

Nod nod nod.

 

It was the most intense reaction I’d seen from her so far. Eyes sparkling, Dangsoso bit my hand with my permission.

 

‘Cute.’

 

If only the method of creation wasn’t so evil, blood jiangshi would make good pets.

 

I chuckled watching Dangsoso gulp down my blood. Fortunately, she knew when to stop appropriately.

 

“Thank you for the meal.”

 

“Good girl. …Hm?”

 

But then.

 

I made a puzzled sound when I saw Dangsoso pull her mouth away and lick the blood from her lips.

 

“Sit!”

 

“Ah.”

 

At my command, Dangsoso’s legs buckled with a thud. I shouted again.

 

“Stand up!”

 

“Oh.”

 

This time her body shot up.

 

After that, I repeated commands like “Raise your right arm!” and “Do a handstand!” Moving like a marionette, Dangsoso was confused at first, but soon seemed quite amused, showing an interested expression.

 

As we continued playing, my eyes met with Dangsoso’s. Hanging upside down from the ceiling, she clapped her hands.

 

“Congratulations. You’ve become my master.”

 

They say good deeds bring good fortune.

 

I shared my blood with a hungry blood jiangshi, and gained a companion jiangshi.
