Chereads / In Another World With My Ex / Chapter 6 - Homecoming and Engagement

Chapter 6 - Homecoming and Engagement

In the afternoon, Uta and Diablo were awakened by the sun's rays. They got dressed and went downstairs to eat. But Uta didn't like the taste of the food, she didn't show it much and told Diablo:

Uta - We need to go to my parents' house. I need to talk to my mother about what happened back then.

Diablo - yeah, your mother will know exactly, after all, she is also a vampire.

Uta - Okay, when you're done eating, come out. I'll prepare the horses and the carriage in the meantime. If only I could teleport like my father, that would be great.

Uta prepared the carriage, and in the meantime, Diablo came outside. They got into the carriage and headed towards the house. During the journey, Uta told Diablo everything he remembered from the previous world, especially about Erza, which made Diablo start laughing:

Diablo - So, I was in your world before I came here, and I loved you there too... Now that's what you call fate! (laughs more)

Uta - This should be impossible. After Erza's death, an hour passed before I died, and when I arrived in this world, you were already 11 years old. Besides, God brought me to this world, before me, He only brought over one hero, Eugene. No one else was brought over.

Diablo - And why do you think only God can summon someone here? Or how do you know that time passes the same way in that world and this one? Maybe time passes differently, like between the lands of demons and humans here.

Uta - If that's the case, then everything makes sense. I'll talk to God about this when He appears to me again. Until then, let's rise to a higher rank in the guild so we can take on high-paying missions, and then we'll buy a house in the city.

Diablo - That's all good, but as for the house, it's better if it's not in a crowded area. After all, we're a demon and a vampire. (laughs)

Half a day later

When they arrived home, the parents immediately seated them at the table. Uta and Diablo shared their brief adventures, and Uta also spoke about God and what He had commanded him. Finally, he told them about what happened when he saw blood. His mother rushed over and asked with a stern expression:

Uta's Mother - You didn't drink the blood, did you?

Uta - Thanks to Diablo, no, he stopped me.

Uta's Mother - Diablo, so you know what happens to a vampire after drinking blood?

Uta - He told me that I would lose my identity.

Uta's Mother - Yes, that's what would have happened if you drank the blood of a monster. The first time you drink blood from any race, you will only be able to drink blood from that race forever, except for monsters. If you drink their blood, you will lose your mind forever and turn into a monster.

Everyone fell silent, and Uta's mother began clearing the table. Diablo stood up confidently, approached Enryu, and said that he wanted to take Uta as his wife and would do anything to earn the right to do so. Uta's mother dropped a plate from her hands.

Enryu - (laughing) That's not for me to decide, Uta is a grown woman now. If she agrees, I will support you.

Everyone looked at Uta (who was blushing).

Uta - Of course, I agree, I'm just surprised that he had the courage to do this. He's usually so shy.

Enryu - (bursting into laughter) The prince of demons, shy? (laughs even more) Alright, so when are you planning the wedding?

Uta - We haven't talked about that yet, but not right now. I think it will happen after we defeat Eugene. Until then, things will remain as they are.

Diablo - Will Uta continue having these attacks?

Enryu - A normal vampire will die within a month if they don't get blood. Until then, they have attacks every fifth day. But Uta isn't a normal vampire, which is why she had her first attack after such a long time. From now on, she will need blood, and regular food will start to taste bland to her.

Diablo swiftly cut his veins, ran to Uta, and poured his blood into her mouth (This happened in 1 second).

Diablo - I plan to spend my entire life with her, so I will let her drink my blood. I'm sorry I did this without asking, but I really wanted to be the one whose blood she tasted first. (His wound healed)

At this moment, Uta's eye color changed to a light blood-red, and her fangs grew slightly. She jumped on Diablo's neck and began to suck his blood. Diablo staggered and fell to his knees, but Uta continued to drain his blood. Enryu stopped her, put shackles on her hands, and tied her to a chair. Diablo was laid on a couch.

Enryu - Rell, did this happen to you too?

Rell - Yes... When tasting blood for the first time, we can't stop, and we continue to drink until it's completely gone. You lose control and could even accidentally kill someone you love.

Enryu - Good thing I stopped her, who knows what Uta would have done to herself after regaining consciousness.
