I'm Not Interested In The Main Characters

Chapter 22

Hot spring bath!

“I can rest here! It’s nice to hear the sound of water, right?”

There was a silent pressure to answer that as soon as possible.

“Yes.”

The two separated to put magic protection around them. Now that they’re in good harmony, they are used to it. It was something they had been doing steadily every time they took a break for the past few days. It was Elysia who installed the danger-sensing notification magic, but Cassian would always be there with her.

After all the magic was cast, they always set up a simple tent.

Of course, for a short break, all they had to do was lay a thick blanket and sleep in a sleeping bag. However, today he was thinking of taking a rest before moving properly, so Cassian pulled out a fairly large tent. When the pillars were mounted, and the fabric was connected with strings, it looked plausible.

Elysia watched Cassian and clapped her hands. She mumbled at the size that seemed to be enough for two people to lie down.

“Well...this is not a tent, but a barrack.”

“Are you going to wash up first?”

“What?”

Elysia was puzzled by the words that gave her a strange feeling.

Cassian said with a casual look.

“Are you not going to wash up? I am going to wash up first then.”

Then, Cassian said that he would wash first and took off his robe. Elysia stared at the hands as he relentlessly unbuttoned his top.

Gulp.

She swallowed and looked around.

The wounds on his body were visible to her eyes, so she was confused why she had discovered it just now. As she sat down and looked at him, Elysia jumped up after seeing a wound that seemed to have been caused by her, and she approached Cassian.

“I’m really sorry for earlier. It must hurt.”

She gently swept the nail marks around his neck, as if this might make him feel better.

“Well, the wound is fine, but I think it’s better not to do that.”

Cassian grabbed her hand and let it go, sweeping the wounds on his own body. She scratched her cheek and grumbled.

“You’re always touching me.”

While speaking, her eyes stretched and glanced at his body.

“Do you like what you see... Do you think you can handle it?”

“Oh, really. Hurry up and wash. Otherwise, I’ll wash up first.”

Elysia passed him and dipped her hand in the water.

‘It’s really a hot spring.’

As the warm water touched her hand, she suddenly overflowed with a desire to enter the water.

“Can I wash up first?”

“All right, then.”

“Don’t look.”

“I’m not looking.”

Cassian sat with his back facing the thick blanket laid in front of the hut. Elysia began to take off her clothes, leaving only a thin robe and underwear. The sound of her clothes falling off, followed by the sound of crossing the water.

He was sweeping his hair, feeling like he was in trouble, even though he couldn’t see Elysia.

She smiled pleasantly as the water was a little hot, and the temperature was comfortable on her skin.

It was close to the mountain range, so she could see the lush atmosphere and scenery, but at this point, she was satisfied.

“Oh... so nice.”

Elysia, who went deeper, looked back and glanced at Cassian’s figure. He seemed to cover his face with the back of his hand. Entering the water in a thin slip, she looked at her own body and felt troubled.

‘Is it impossible for him to come in together?’

She thought that she has gotten pretty close to him over the past few days, and she wishes he could feel her rush too.

Thanks to Elysia’s clean magic, it wasn’t necessary for both of them to wash, but soaking in the water made her mood differ significantly. As she looked at her body wet with warm water, she noticed that the wounds everywhere were healing.

‘The recovery is very fast.’

She guessed it was because of drinking a lot of Cassian’s blood recently.

As she soaked her head in her water, she squeezed her hair over one of her shoulders.

“Snake?”

Obviously, she didn’t feel anything peculiar in the water, but it was strange. Especially, since they are right next to the mountain range, there could be no ordinary animals.

‘A monster?’

She just wanted to ignore it, but the black creature kept coming toward Elysia.

She didn’t want to stain the water with the blood of a monster, so she averted her body a little, hoping that it would pass, but it was in vain. Just thinking of throwing it away with magic, she made a thin layer of magic and blew it away, but it kept evading away because of the height of the water that reached the edge of her chest.

Then, the monster suddenly approached at high speed. The distance became quite close without Elysia having any time to do anything. A long black monster wrapped Elysia’s ankles firmly.

Elysia shouted at the creepy and slippery feeling.

“Ahh!”

Cassian hurried into the water at Elysia’s scream.

Cassian asked, who could not grasp at a glance what was going on because she was quite deep inside the water. It was because his vision was narrowed by the fog.

“What’s going on?”

“The ankle!”

As she was yelling, Elysia’s face crumpled due to a tingling sensation in her ankle.

‘Does this bastard dare to put a tooth on the vampire’s ankle?’

I’m a vampire who sucks the blood of monsters.

Elysia grabbed Cassian’s arm, who had come close to her, and stretched her other hand to her ankle. She closed her eyes tightly from a sensation that was much more watery than she thought.

However, the monster fell away from her hand.

She wanted to put in strength so she wouldn’t miss it, but she had to hold it loosely in case it might explode.

Cassian raised his hand, which was not supporting Elysia, and caught what she had missed.

“You can’t kill it here! Water! It will get dirty.”

At her words, Cassian raised his eyebrows with a ridiculous expression and turned his gaze into what was held in her hand.

It looked like a snake, but it was a monster.

‘I should have looked into it a little more. Tsk.’

Cassian clicked his tongue, threw it out of the water, and attacked it with his magic. Without a drop of blood, the monster who lost its life rolled over the dirt.

Elysia raised her thumb, gesturing that he did well.

It would have been a much messier finish if she had done it herself. Then, suddenly, she remembered that Cassian followed her and had taken care of her all day today.

It was already over, but Elysia said in a small voice.

“I could have done it myself...”

Although... It would have been a little messy finish.

She even screamed, so she laughed awkwardly, wondering if it was natural for him to run.

Elysia’s hair, smiling as she looked at him, was wet, and her cheeks were red, perhaps due to the temperature of the water. The moonlight sparkled her wet body, and the slip she was wearing couldn’t cover them at all. It was breathtaking under the collarbone.

Elysia wanted to escape his gaze and tried to get away from his grasp, but Cassian squeezed her with strength and wrapped her around his waist.

Elysia blushed her face, astonished by his sudden hug.

“What are you doing...!”

“Ankle.”

“...Ah. Haha.”

Elysia put her arms around his neck to hold her balance.

Cassian lifted her ankle with the other hand while holding her with one arm. He exhaled a little while looking at the two red tooth marks. Elysia followed his eyes, looked at her own ankles, and gasped. The teeth marks were quite large.

She frowned at her strange defeat.

If there were someone else here as well, she would have been a laughing stock.

“Are you all right?”

“Uh... it’s better than it looks?”

It’s embarrassing to say that the poison is spreading, she added.

When she said she was okay, he put Elysia down.

“You’re not giving me a chance to let my guard down.”

Seeing Cassian swiping his black hair that was dampened with his bruised wrist, naturally, reminded her of the night a few days ago. The shirt soaked with water was revealing his body, and nail marks on the nape of his neck were visible through the loose buttons.

‘Again... Beautiful.’

Elysia doubts her own tastes, and she stares at him blankly. As she stared at Cassian’s body, she felt his gaze and looked up, and she saw a real desire arose in his purple eyes.

She tried to say something, but she couldn’t speak properly in his eyes.

“Uh...”

Moist, thick lips came into her sight.

Cassian pulled her around his waist, pulling her closer and lowering his head, gripping her chin lightly with one hand. It was a close distance where both their lips touched tightly.

Cassian looked at her red-eyed as if requesting permission.

Soon, the red pupils disappeared into the eyelids, and their lips touched. His cool lips spread through her hot lips, and his tongue gently invaded Elysia’s mouth. As her body trembled, she put her arms around his shoulders. As if the action was a trigger, the kiss grew stronger.

Elysia felt hazy as the kiss was a little overwhelming.

She groaned softly as the scent of his body was becoming more distinct.

“Hooo.”

Cassian’s lips parted, and kissed her chin lightly.

Then, his lips slowly moved down to the marks on Elysia’s neck, which had already started to fade. He hugged Elysia as he faced her, and her legs were wrapped around his waist.

The spot where his lips passed down the rim of her neck was burning. The lips were stopped by a layer of thin slip that couldn’t be lowered anymore.

Cassian looked up at her.

There was trouble buried in Elysia’s voice.

“If you provoke me like this... how can I endure it.”

When Cassian swept her back, as if urging her that it was okay, Elysia put her lips back onto his mouth. Her fangs, which had appeared before she realized, bit his lips.

Elysia kissed him and sucked his lips. The scent of the fishy blood spread throughout her mouth. She couldn’t control herself and buried her lips on the back of his neck. Holding onto his shirt, she digs and scratches his back.

Her vampiric blood made her even hotter. Although she was not feeling hungry, Elysia pressed her body against Cassian tightly.

At last, she raised her head, and both hot eyes met.

His eyes scanned through her loose red eyes and flaky lips.

Cassian realized that it was his first time facing her properly right after she sucked blood.

‘This is dangerous.’

He raised his hand and stole a drop of his own blood from Elysia’s lips. At that action, Elysia grabbed his hand, licked him, and said warningly.

“It’s mine.”

With the feeling of satisfaction rising strangely, Cassian breathes a little faster.

“Yes...it’s yours.”

Once again, their lips touched, and the lustful kiss continued. Elysia’s head leaned back as his hand swept the apex past her thigh.

“Uung...”

As Cassian moved his steps, she felt the water level gradually lowered.

Eventually, the layer of clothes that covered her body fell to the floor. The two captured each other’s appearance, shining in the moonlight faded into their eyes. Closing the distance between each other, they move closer, not allowing any single gap.
