Reborn as a short-lived loli who can only live for three years

"Avi, what do you think the true identity of that 'vampire' is?"

At night, Ying lay on Ivy's bed again and asked curiously.

“It must be a monster that escaped from somewhere.” Ivy guessed randomly.

"But the people in the academy have been unable to catch it, and they haven't explained what it is. I feel like the people in the academy don't know..." Ying thought about it again, and suddenly guessed in a low voice, "Could it be sent by our superiors?"

"...No way, they have no reason to do that."

"That's right, and Mr. Krillin should also inform us in advance."

“…Don’t mention him.” Ivy covered her ears exaggeratedly.

"Oh."

Ying shut her mouth again.

Recently, Hotaru's affection for the gardener Krillin has increased a little.

The reason was simple. As the graduation dance approached, the gardener from the high school department would occasionally assign special and dangerous temporary tasks to the other three.

The identities of the people responsible for transporting the Sage's Heart for exhibition are mysterious, which has led to many people who covet this matter being ready to make a move. The college has been quietly paying attention to the suspicious contacts between each teacher, and the gardener's actions have also been hindered.

During this period, the three people from the high school department occasionally needed to take on a few messaging missions and secretly pass on the information they received to other gardeners.

There are countless students who ask teachers about their homework every day, and they blend in among them without arousing any suspicion.

Nevertheless, every temporary mission carries the risk of exposing their identities, and it is not easy for them.

In comparison, Hotaru and Ivy have it much easier, and Teacher Krillin does not intend to let them bear more responsibilities.

He was even considerate enough to tell them personally that he hoped they would save their best condition for the graduation dance after the end of the semester.

……

"I really hope that vampire will come to our place once at night. Avi and I together can definitely catch it! The ghost story ends in our hands, it's cool to think about it."

Listening to the conversations between other students every day, Ying Youyou has long been curious about this mysterious vampire, but that guy just doesn't appear in front of them.

The rumors were confirmed by others every day, but they could only continue to watch the show.

It's strange that almost the entire apartment building had been attacked, and some people had even been bitten twice, but only their dormitory rooms and the surrounding areas had not been attacked, as if they had deliberately avoided this area.

"Since the academy still can't catch it, it means it's still very powerful. We may not be able to defeat it with just the two of us." Ivy pushed Ying aside again, climbed out of bed, walked to the window and closed it.

Even though the mysterious vampire has never come, we cannot let our guard down and the windows must be closed tightly.

Ying still refused to give up: "Maybe it has been here before, but it just doesn't like our blood?"

Poisonous blood?

“Let’s just leave it at that.” Ivy smiled. “We won’t be able to find out after we fall asleep anyway.”

Ying regretted again: "Really, if only I were a lighter sleeper!"

“…People who are light sleepers will envy you.”

……

……

But tonight was different.

Ivy gradually woke up from her sleep. She felt a strange magical fluctuation approaching.

The air seemed to be filled with the dizzying smell of pollen, and my body seemed so heavy that I could hardly move.

Ying Youyou beside him was sleeping even more soundly at this time, completely unaware of the danger that was about to come.

what……

They were wondering when this guy would appear in front of them, but he actually appeared...

There was a rustling sound outside the window, and then with a click, the window lock was opened.

Ivy forced herself to sit up. With the moonlight from the window, she saw the dark thorny vines spreading into the house.

At this time, a familiar voice came from outside the window: "Didn't I tell you not to come here? You will be discovered by the people inside."

The spreading movement of the vines suddenly stopped.

Then came a girl's aggrieved voice: "But mom, no one has ever discovered me before."

"She's different," Pukulia stated calmly.

"I do not believe!"

As it spoke, the thorn vine's true form flipped into the window with a "flutter", and then stared at Ivy who had sat up.

"..."

"..."

The girl covered her mouth in surprise: "Ah, it's true...!"

The girl exuded a strange dark magic. Her long black hair looked more and more like vines towards the end, and she had a black lotus-shaped flower on her head. Her dark eyes were staring at Ivy intently. The fitted dress she wore was the best-looking one Ivy had ever tried on.

Pukulia also jumped out from the shadows in the room, silently watching the girl's back.

The girl felt distressed: "What should I do now? If I am discovered, will she help me keep the secret? Should I just kill her?"

The smell of pollen in the air seemed to be stronger, and the sleepiness became more hostile, constantly weakening Ivy's will.

The vines at the end of her hair continued to grow longer. They climbed onto Ivy's bed and gradually wrapped around her wrists and body.

"Stop, Ke'er." Pukulia stopped him calmly, "She is an insider."

The vines' movements slowed down, but they did not let go of Ivy.

Ke'er's eyes flashed with bloodthirsty excitement: "Then it's okay if I suck a little more of her blood, right?"

The vines wrapped around Ivy's neck and suddenly stretched out two thorns, piercing Ivy's neck.

Ivy frowned in pain.

How come those people didn't notice it before?

It obviously hurts.

She turned her gaze towards Pukulia.

At this moment, Pukulia's eyes were also fixed on her, but those calm eyes were full of indifference.

Pukuria did not stop.

“My blood is poisonous.” Seeing that the girl was about to start eating, Ivy kindly reminded her.

Ke'er pretended not to hear it, but Pukulia appeared in front of her in an instant and grabbed the vine on Ivy's neck.

"Ke'er, let her go." Pukulia's tone finally revealed some nervousness.

The vines slowly retracted from Ivy's body, and the two needle wounds on her neck slowly oozed blood.

Ke'er still didn't give up, and stared greedily at Yingyouyou who was lying on the bed.

"Her blood too." Ivy blocked Ying again.

"Let's go, Ke'er."

Ke'er showed a wronged expression again: "But mom, I'm so hungry."

"Then let's go find someone else, okay?"

Pukuria picked up the girl with one hand, his movements extremely skillful.

She went to the window.

"Okay~" Ke'er hugged Pukulia's neck affectionately and smiled sweetly.

Before leaving, Pukulia looked back at Ivy.

Ivy just stared back at her with a cold and lonely look.
