Tsundere
When she's alone, she uses spatial teleportation magic to save time.
But she occasionally experiences the daily life of ordinary people.
Moreover, this is in broad daylight; if someone takes a picture of it, it could cause some trouble.
"What a huge house! Does Yue-chan live in such a luxurious house all by herself? It's even more luxurious than the presidential suite of a five-star hotel!"
As soon as she entered, Nagisa Akatsuki was shocked by the size and decor of the room.
When she lived in the island nation, her residence was just an ordinary house, completely different from Nangong Nayue's.
Ren was also somewhat surprised.
When I was watching the anime, I didn't realize how big Nangong Nayue's house was, but after visiting it in person, I realized that if only one person lives there, the house is indeed ridiculously big.
"Speaking of which, Xiao Nayue, you've embezzled quite a bit, haven't you? Not only do you have the money to live in such a big house, but the furniture and decorations are also top-of-the-line solid wood."
"Ah, so you were embezzling money, Tsuki-chan?"
Nagisa Akatsuki looked at the long-haired, black-haired loli in disbelief.
Nangong Nayue glared at Ren: "I occasionally take on outside jobs, just like you, who calls yourself a mercenary."
"Alright, apart from the master bedroom on the east side, you can each choose one of the other rooms. After you've made your selections, I'll take you out for a bit."
Afterwards, watching the two girls happily choosing empty rooms, Nangong Nayue couldn't help but feel a little tired.
Why do I suddenly feel like I've become a kindergarten teacher?
"By the way, Xiao Nayue, are you afraid of the dark at night? If you are, I can reluctantly share a room with you."
Ren stroked his chin and said.
"Gun!"
After Nangong Nayue finished speaking, she narrowed her eyes, her gaze filled with disdain.
Are you a pervert who likes young girls' bodies?
"You can eat anything, but you can't say anything."
Ren immediately refuted himself.
"To be honest, someone like you would only be allowed to sit at the kids' table at my place."
Nangong Nayue rolled her eyes, utterly speechless.
When I first met Ren last night, I thought he had the air of a master, but now that I've gotten to know him, I've discovered that his personality is far more "lively" than I imagined.
Although it was somewhat different from what she had imagined, she quickly got used to Ren's attitude.
After all, as a teacher and a witch, he had seen many versions of himself that were even more abstract than his own.
After the two girls chose their rooms and put away their luggage, Nangong Nayue, as the host, led the three guests, including Ren, to the bustling pedestrian street of Itogami City.
It was midday, and the scorching sun was baking the earth.
Strolling around and admiring the sights was obviously out of the question. Just as they were about to take Ren and the others to a restaurant they were familiar with, Aurora gently tugged at Ren's sleeve.
"Is it... okay to go there?"
Following the direction the girl was pointing, Ren saw a vampire-themed café.
Aurora seemed to be drawn to the overly bright red signboard, her fiery red pupils fixed on the entrance.
Although Aurora's consciousness had also been dormant for a thousand years, her mindset had not grown at all, and she still had interests befitting her physical appearance.
The two adults had no objections, and the four of them then entered the cafe, which had a rather spooky decor.
As soon as they entered, they heard a cold laugh.
"Hahaha! Poor little lambs, welcome to the House of Tragedy! Offer your life-giving nectar to the great Lord of Darkness! And your wish will be granted!"
A robust middle-aged man, dressed in a black evening suit with a high-necked cloak swaying in the wind, stared at Ren and his companions with delighted eyes, his voice sharp and high-pitched.
Ren noticed the silver metal bracelet on the man's left wrist.
In the Demon Sanctuary, all demons who enter the country through legal procedures carry a metal bracelet for identification.
He finally believed Nangong Nayue's claim about the difficulty of finding employment in the Demon Sanctuary.
These days, even demons have to work incredibly hard to make money.
After all, Ren was able to sense that the man was also a vampire.
"Ooh!?"
Just then, Aurora, who was standing beside him, let out a shrill scream.
Perhaps because the shop manager's performance had frightened Aurora, she was now trembling and hiding behind him.
Ren was quite difficult to hold back.
He turned to her and said earnestly, "You are a true progenitor of vampires, you need to stand up straight. What kind of progenitor would scream in fear at the sight of a lower-ranking vampire?"
However, Aurora wouldn't listen to anything Ren said.
The store manager seemed quite pleased that a customer had been startled by him.
"Then, little lambs, hurry to the altar prepared especially for you sacrifices."
"An altar...?"
Aurora's expression of fear deepened, and she clutched at Ren's back, moaning softly.
The innocent vampire princess believed the shopkeeper's words.
After laughing Nagisa Akatsuki immediately comforted the tearful blonde girl, explaining that it was all part of the performance at the themed cafe.
After a while, Nagisa Akatsuki finally managed to coax Aurora, who was desperately trying to leave.
Ren opened the menu, and the names of the dishes were quite interesting.
The forbidden shroud is a plain crispy pancake, the sacred cross is fried chicken deliberately shaped into a cross, and the despairing Longinus is an ordinary toothpick.
Although they were all very serious-looking things, they were all quite novel to Aurora.
Curious about the coffee Ren ordered, the girl secretly took a sip, but immediately gagged at the bitter taste that burst in her mouth. Her beautiful features scrunched up. She only managed to get rid of the bitterness after drinking some carbonated beverages with Nagisa Akatsuki. She then finished all the carbonated drinks in one go and even let out a burp.
Because of them, Ren and Nangong Nayue stayed here for quite some time.
"Alright, you two little devils, you've had your fun. It's time to go back and behave yourselves. I still need to process your school enrollment procedures today."
Nangong Nayue said calmly.
"If you want to go out and have fun, don't go too far from the apartment. Although Itogami Island is quite safe, you're still new here..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a violent explosion suddenly erupted not far away.
"..."
Chapter 271 Arrogant
The summer tranquility was shattered by the explosion, and the crowd ahead descended into chaos, with noise rising and falling.
Then, Ren saw several orcs with animal heads rampaging through the road.
Startled, Aurora immediately grabbed Ren, while Nagisa Akatsuki, who had experienced Gozo Island, turned pale instantly.
Nangong Nayue's face turned ashen, but Ren was overjoyed.
"Is this what you meant by Itogami Island's good security? I think it's pretty average."
Hearing Ren's sarcastic remark, Nangong Nayue's brows twitched violently, and her face grew even more gloomy.
She made a boast and was immediately proven wrong. Doesn't she have any pride?!
At the same time, piercing alarms sounded all around.
Due to its unique geographical environment and international status, Itogami Island is far more likely to experience terrorist attacks than other cities.
However, thanks to this, Itogami Island has a rapid and comprehensive emergency response procedure.
The security forces tasked with suppressing terrorists have been notified and are en route to the location as quickly as possible.
"Inferior humans! You shall die with glee at the hands of the great orcs!"
As the leopard-headed orc pushed through the crowd, he saw a family of four directly in front of him, and a surge of jealousy and hatred welled up in his chest.
Having completed his beast form, he leaped more than five meters high, his massive body slamming heavily towards the location where Nangong Nayue was standing.
However, before he could land on the ground, the space around the orc suddenly shattered like a mirror.
With a crisp metallic clang, countless silver chains emerged from the void rift, binding the orc like a dumpling in less than a second.
Upon seeing this, the orc's companion immediately stopped in his tracks, his expression shifting from surprise and uncertainty to utter terror.
"Another orc supremacist terrorist. Can't you little animals come up with some other excuse?"
Nangong Nayue narrowed her eyes and whispered a mocking tone.
"An attack magic master? Don't get cocky, you brat!"
The young girl's mocking expression enraged the orc, who immediately drew a large machete from his belt and charged at Nangong Nayue with glaring eyes.
"I'll kill you!"
"You think you can take it?"
Nangong Nayue sneered, and silver chains appeared above the orc's head, suspending it by the neck.
Then, amidst its resentful and fearful gaze, it was dragged into the depths of space along with its companions.
The commotion caused by the two orcs was resolved in an instant, which amazed passersby, who all took out their phones to take pictures.
However, for some reason, their phone cameras could only capture a blurry image, as if the camera lens was covered by a mosaic.
"Itogami Island is indeed quite safe."
"That's what Ren said."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Nayue glanced at him and said, "... Today was an accident; it's usually very peaceful."
She was puzzled too.
Although terrorist attacks are indeed frequent, the vast majority are dealt with by the security forces on the shore.
Did these orcs sneak in from the abandoned areas of the old southeast?
She managed to bypass the surveillance and the security team guarding the gate; it seems she'll have to go to headquarters and give those people an extra workout.
Just then, accompanied by a sharp screech of brakes, several black-painted armored vehicles drove up.
Then a group of heavily armed security guards filed out.
They first dispersed the onlookers, set up a cordon nearby, and treated the injured. Then, a young girl wearing a beige cheongsam got out of the car.
She was around twenty-one or twenty-two years old, and was a very beautiful Eastern woman.
She has a good figure, but it's still a bit far from "normal".
The girl's name is Sasazaki Misaki.
Like Nangong Nayue, she is both an Exorcist Officer of Itogami Island and a teacher at the Saikai Academy.
It's just that Sasazaki Misaki teaches physical education.
"I was wondering why the alarm suddenly went off, but I didn't expect to find you here, Natsuki-chan!"
But weren't you on vacation these past few days?
At this point, Sasazaki Misaki looked curiously at the people beside Natsuki.
Then, she covered her mouth in shock.
"So that's how it is?! She secretly went on dates with her boyfriend after taking leave, and they even have a child! Nazuki-chan, when exactly did you get married?"
"Don't let your imagination run wild, you stupid dog!"
Nangong Nayue said in an annoyed tone.
"Huh? What's with the man next to you? And he has two kids. Don't worry, Yue-chan, just tell me secretly, I absolutely won't tell anyone!"
"That's what Sasazaki Misaki said excitedly."
