Episode 280 A Vampire Who Has No Blood or Tears (5)
During the day, Ray had to share blood from the vampires little by little.
Of course, a lot of blood is needed during heart surgery.
It must also have at least the same blood type.
Well, fortunately among the misfortunes, vampires don’t have to worry about this.
Vampires are a race that absorbs the blood of other creatures as their own.
It can be an act of predation by sucking blood or an act of injecting someone else’s blood into one’s own body.
If they are also classified according to the presence or absence of A or B antigen, the ABO blood type.
If antigens such as the MN blood group according to the presence or absence of the M or N antigen or the RH blood group classified according to the presence or absence of the RH0 (D) factor were commonly used, vampires would have been wiped out within a year.
In simple terms, it means that they do not have the anti-B antigen that type A has or the anti-A antigen that type B should have.
That’s why it was able to accommodate the blood of all living things.
When Ray opened the blood donation house (?) in the middle of the mansion, the vampires were interested and gathered little by little.
Most of them were vampire maids or handymen who did chores.
“What are humans doing now?”
“I want you to provide me with your blood.”
“ha ha ha. It’s fun to ask blood from a vampire. Then what will you do if we provide blood?”
In short, it must be that they hope for a give and take.
Ray shrugged.
“Unfortunately, there is nothing I can give you.”
“Ugh. I didn’t know you could only hope for nothing in return.”
When they were disappointed, Ray grinned and held out the food as if he had waited.
“I have nothing to give, not that you have nothing to gain.”
“…what do you mean?”
“Too much blood is not a good thing. Just as there is a puddle in one place in flowing water, so is blood. If you remove the accumulated blood at regular intervals, new blood will be created and you will become healthier.”
It is true that blood donors have a lower risk of heart attack and diabetes than non-blood donors.
In addition, 10-15% of human blood is reserved for emergencies.
It means that daily life is not impossible even if you donate blood to this extent.
Of course, they couldn’t have known any of this.
That’s why there were some people who didn’t believe it.
However, most of the vampires who tasted the blood of humans directly nodded.
“Certainly, the blood of powerless old people is tasteless. Is that why young human blood tastes better?”
“The deceased Pira… Quite an apt example.”
“good. Take out that pooled blood. Let’s see what it looks like.”
It’s not like I’m picking out enough to reach the lethal dose anyway.
Since it was only extracting a small amount, which amounted to the equivalent of one cup, few vampires expressed objection.
The first to entrust their bodies were the court ladies-in-waiting and vampires.
The women who had seen his face before said with a ruddy face.
“I wish they would take off their masks and pull them out…”
Originally, blood donors are king in blood donation houses.
Ray obediently took off his mask.
Then the noisy vampires watched with bated breath.
When his appearance is revealed, the ladies-in-waiting’s eyes become drowsy.
“It would be nice to go around like that normally…”
“You have a lot of orders.”
Ray grabbed her by the wrist and inserted a needle into her elbow.
It was a bit thicker than modern ones due to the lack of technology, but for those who were already accustomed to pain, they did not blink an eye.
The blood that traveled through the tube began to collect little by little in the bottle.
When you clench and open your fists repeatedly, the blood collects better.
By the time the cup is full.
Ray removed the needle.
“great job. If possible, drink a lot of water.”
“Yeah… But is this the end?”
“It’s over.”
It’s so much simpler than I thought.
The lady-in-waiting moved away from the chair with a bewildered expression, followed by others.
Their faces were considerably looser than the first.
“Nothing. It won’t be difficult.”
“Certainly there must be an effect, right?”
“Because it makes me healthy. I will guarantee it.”
“ha ha ha. I never thought the day would come when humans would demand blood from us. It’s something to live for a long time to see.”
It’s really something to live for a long time to see.
What kind of madman would dare to ask for blood from a vampire?
It was only possible because he was rationally insane.
Even while taking blood, he was thinking, ‘Shouldn’t it be better to draw a little more for the next operation, just in case?’
Perhaps if the vampires knew about this idea, they might have run away in fright.

Ray finished making transfusion packs during the morning and afternoon.
As the sun went down outside the window and it got dark, an unexpected person came to his bedroom.
“You look free.”
He leans against the door with a bottle of wine in one hand and speaks.
It is a familiar face.
Ray asked, puzzled.
“What happen?”
Then, Vermatt shakes the bottle.
“I was thinking of getting a drink. If you don’t like it, I’ll go back.”
After thinking for a moment, Ray nodded happily.
“It was a car with nothing to do. Come in.”
“Thank you.”
At his reaction, Ray tilted his head again.
Vampires by nature are not without a tendency to look down on humans and other alien races.
In addition, Vermata is a high-ranking vampire that can be said to be pure blood even among pure blood.
It’s strange that he expresses his gratitude to himself as a human being, even if it’s just passing words.
As we sat down, putting our doubts behind, Vermatt silently handed us a drink.
Ray picked it up and shoved it neatly into his mouth.
A feeling of heat rises from the neck.
It seems to be a fairly high alcohol drink.
However, it wasn’t even painful.
On the contrary, the coolness felt when it passed through the esophagus was to the extent that there was no problem even when compared to that of the elven state.
After several orders of magnitude more alcohol, Vermatt spoke first.
“Is that serious? Seeing you move so fast.”
“…”
Ray looked him in the eye as he picked up his glass.
It is certainly a serious and difficult operation.
Of course, it’s not impossible, but it’s a major surgery that’s understandable for the patient to die if he can’t stand it during the operation.
Besides, there are no modern medical devices here.
This means that there is no artificial cardiopulmonary device or cardiopulmonary replacement vascular device to maintain cardiopulmonary function during heart surgery.
If Tiffria were to be operated on by a different therapist than herself, her chances of surviving would be less than a decimal point.
Shall I tell you the truth?
If an unexpected situation occurs, he may not be able to guarantee her life.
After a moment of conflict, Ray shook his head.
‘I don’t know him yet.’
He may have an ulterior motive, but we cannot make hasty decisions.
“It is not light.”
“Right. I knew roughly. You can tell that much from your actions.”
“If I had known in advance, I would have nothing to say. Still, I have to do my best. They say if I don’t fix it, they’ll kill me?”
When he said it insignificantly, Vermatt stared blankly at the table and sneered.
“…After that day, when I thought about it again, I wondered if I had put too much pressure on it. No matter how much it is, ‘If you can’t fix it, I’ll kill you’ is too much. I apologize.”
He had nothing to say after the other person had said so much.
In the end, Ray couldn’t even save the money and only ate his appetite.
Only drinks come and go in the awkward silence.
Vermata, who had been silent for a while, spoke again.
A faint smile bloomed on his lips.
“…do something well. I can’t say it’s particularly important, but I have one younger sister. If you die, you won’t feel refreshed.”
“Mmm.”
What is this gap felt in words?
When Ray only drooled, Vermatt stood up first.
“I shouldn’t disturb the person who has to do big things tomorrow. Let’s stop here for today.”
Throwing a long cloak over his shoulders, he waved his hand once and left the bedroom.
What the hell did you want to talk about?
I muttered as I looked at the back of him when Ray disappeared.
“At times like this, I really envy the elves who have the eyes of truth.”

“Are you there yet?”
The elder vampires in front of her trembled when the overweight middle-aged woman asked indifferently.
“That’s it… According to the news, Vermat-sama personally visited Tifria-sama’s mansion…”
Quaang—!
The tableware placed in front of the woman flew at high speed and hit the wall.
However, the tableware is intact and only the wall is broken.
At that mysterious mana, the elders shrank.
Anger erupted in the war.
“Half a year has passed since I gave the order! But are you moving now? To think that these incompetent bastards were sitting as elders!”
“Sorry!”
“Yeah, I should be sorry. If so, apologize with your insignificant life.”
“yes……?”
The bearded elder asked incredulously, and she waved his hand.
Then the elder’s body exploded at once.
Puppy-!
Along with the flesh, fishy blood splattered here and there.
However, even so, the elders could not respond.
It’s because it can move around and turn into minced meat like just before.
As if she had caught a fly in front of her eyes, she raised her glass casually.
“…I can’t wait any longer. How long will noble bloodsuckers have to roam in the dark? Organize your group right now. The destination is Tiffria’s territory. I will beat the wicked bitch and forcibly absorb the opposing factions.”
Even when she said that she would take a hard line, no one added anything else.
Rather than worrying about the future, the elders, who felt their lives were precious right now, voted in favor.
“Oh, you are right! I’ll pack up a group right away!”
“We can head to Tiffria’s territory even tomorrow! Just give me orders! mother!”
As if she liked the answer, the so-called ‘Mother’ smiled cheerfully.
“Ha ha ha ha ha! good night! Strike Tifria’s territory tomorrow! I promise to treat you with respect for those who have made contributions!”
Next to the whipping is the carrot.
The elders wept and cheered as they ate the mustard.
“Leave it to me!”
“I will give you the territory of Tiffria!”
Mother revealed this.
“Now I really believe it’s right in front of me. If it fails again… it will never end with just one person.”
The elders gulped as they pointed at the bloodied corpse.
