Are you planning to strangle me to death?
"How...how did you know?!"
Lina didn't care about anything else anymore; she raised her head and stared intently at him.
Lina didn't understand why Mahiro knew the vampires came from USNA.
Could there really be a traitor among us?!
"Well, don't worry. It's not a spy case, it's just deduction."
He patted his smooth back as he murmured:
"Everything was peaceful before you arrived, but after you came, this damn vampire incident suddenly appeared, and before that, your USNA had a large influx of people."
No one would believe there's no connection between the two.
Even if you didn't bring these vampires, you're definitely not immune to their influence.
Angelina: "..."
The girl remained silent, pursing her lips as if deep in thought. After a long while, she couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, you guessed right, vampires are indeed related to us, but we didn't bring them."
Lina chose to be honest.
Or rather, she realized that continuing to play dumb with Yotsuba Mahiro was pointless and might even create unnecessary obstacles to the mission.
So he raised his eyes, his gaze flickering slightly as he met his eyes.
"Yotsuba... Mahiro, can I trust you?"
Do you have any other choice?
Mahiro smiled slightly and said, "Ever since we first met at the shrine, you've had no way out."
"...You really are a bastard!"
But even if he's a jerk, there's nothing she can do about it.
She chose to compromise.
"...What do you want to know?"
"Number of people."
"We are still investigating the exact number, but it should be around ten people. This includes defectors from our Stars, and the rest are all from the USNA military."
"That's right, Charles Sullivan is one of the defectors, isn't he?"
"You—you encountered it?!"
Lina's eyes widened slightly; her human radar had kicked in again.
"Don't be so surprised, do you?"
Zhenxun joked, "Last night, someone attacked my residence. It was that 'Second Demon Star,' Charles Sullivan."
By the way, I've already killed them all; not even a corpse was left.
"Yeah...."
Upon hearing that no bodies remained, Lina seemed relieved, and even her body relaxed.
After all, the bodies of our own people must never fall into the hands of the enemy.
This has nothing to do with honor; it's simply because there are many secrets hidden on the corpses, especially among Stars personnel, whose bodies are collected even if they die in battle.
As for whether Yotsuba is deceiving her about the truth.
This was outside Lina's consideration; with his abilities, there was no need for him to lie to her.
but....
"Since you already know all this, what other information do you want from me?"
Lina was very puzzled. "What I know is almost no different from what you know."
"No, there's something that I think only USNA knows."
"what's up?"
"It's about the vampires' choice of hosts. Do these guys choose to parasitize beings with powerful magic or stronger physical abilities?"
This is his conjecture.
After all, the people around him who were attacked had all been injected with enhancement drugs.
Even Tatsuya said that the intruders' target was Miyuki, not him. Even when they tried to stop them, the intruders only had eyes for Miyuki.
Meanwhile, Shaliwen initially intended to attack him, but then changed his target to Shuibo.
Not to mention that Yotsuba Maya, Mayumi, and Watanabe Mari were also attacked.
Even those dead magicians possessed excellent and remarkable magical power.
If they weren't so adept at selecting their targets, these parasites wouldn't have bothered to attack them.
The answer he received from Lina was, of course, "Yes".
Those who were parasitized were all outstanding magicians in USNA, otherwise they would not have been able to escape under their strict guard.
However, Lina also began to question the meaning of life.
Such excellent intelligence gathering and deductive abilities, as well as skills and magical power that are in no way inferior to hers.
Even disregarding his wicked and devilish personality, she couldn't help but wonder if this guy was really a high school student!
Then look at yourself now, hanging miserably on someone else's body.
Lina felt a deep sadness in her heart, to the point that she wanted to look up to the sky and sigh.
Otherwise, let's revert to the codename "Sirius" when we go back this time.
As the captain of Stars, he not only lost to a high school student, but was also subjected to miserable torment day and night, and didn't even know when he would become pregnant with the other person's child.
Sirius has completely disgraced itself...
However, Lina was completely overthinking things about getting pregnant.
Given his current genetic material, it was already difficult for him to have offspring naturally, let alone after the enhancement.
Even if we use technological means to forcibly intervene, it is unlikely.
Otherwise, Sumire Muroto wouldn't have spent all her time in a dark room studying his genetic material, without any results to this day.
However, at that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Knock, knock, knock—
"Lina? Mia's here."
"!!!"
A crisp knock on the door made Lina sit up straight immediately. When she heard Sylvia's voice and the name Mia, she tensed up instantly.
Shinji, who was holding Lina in his arms, could clearly feel it.
Not to mention how indescribable it was.
"Relax, relax your body, you're too tense... oh no, you're too tense."
"Let me go right now..."
Lina was on the verge of tears.
It was one thing for Sylvia to be right outside the door, but I didn't expect Mia to come today too.
If they saw her in this disheveled state, she really wouldn't want to live anymore.
"Lina?"
Outside the door, Sylvia's voice came again, and she knocked on the door once more.
Faint whispers could be heard, such as, "Could they be asleep?"
"Let me go."
Now, Lina was completely panicked.
They struggled desperately.
Even if they struggle a bit, they inevitably run out of strength again.
"Alright, alright, don't move! I'll put you down right now!"
At Lina's request, Mahiro finally put her down.
And then, with a pop, he casually opened a bottle of champagne.
-------------------------------------
after awhile.
The door to the living room was opened.
Lina, now dressed in her high school uniform, walked out with Mahiro.
The girl looked exactly the same as before she entered the room; her complexion was normal, even her disheveled long hair was neatly combed, and she moved around without any difficulty.
To be precise, even though there was that subtle discomfort, like the feeling of a half-full bottle of water sloshing around, she forcibly endured it.
Even so, her roommate, Sylvia, still stared at her with a strange and subtle gaze.
"Sorry, I was just... talking about some important school matters with Yotsuba in my room, so I came out late."
Lina said this.
But it sounded like it was deliberately said to Sylvia, warning her not to overthink or speculate.
The problem is, she's just an exchange student who only stayed in Japan for a few months, and she's secretly the captain of Stars. What serious business does she have to do with the school?
Sylvia naturally understood, and nodded with a smile to indicate that she understood.
But I also felt a bit emotional.
A stunningly beautiful girl like Lina and a boy with exceptionally handsome looks like Yotsuba standing together are a match made in heaven.
That's enough to make her, and even the people in the team, ship them as a couple.
Unfortunately, this relationship could not last and could not have a happy ending.
Thinking of this, Sylvia's feelings became somewhat complicated.
The Captain-Commander's first love will probably end up being a fizzle-out affair...
After all, Lina is a valuable strategic-level mage in USNA, and Yotsuba Mahiro is the eldest son of the Yotsuba family. Unless the higher-ups on both sides have gone mad, there is no way they can be together.
Then, led by Sylvia, they arrived at the living room.
"Mia, you're here."
As soon as Lina arrived at the meeting place, her face lit up with joy. It was the joy of seeing her friend again, or the happiness of meeting an old friend in a foreign land.
On the living room sofa, a young woman greeted Lina with a nervous expression.
"Yes, young lady... Lina, I'm sorry to bother you."
At first, she wanted to say "major," but when she saw that Lina was accompanied by a strangely handsome and unfamiliar man, she immediately changed her mind.
For some reason, an unfathomable feeling flashed in her eyes when she looked at Yotsuba Mahiro.
Lina, however, was completely oblivious to this, focusing entirely on Mia's words.
I was slightly nervous at first, then relaxed and sat down at the table.
"Please have a seat, Mia. Sylvie, and I'd like a cup of tea."
"Is milk tea okay? Mia and Yotsuba, would you like another cup?"
"Oh, okay, thank you for the hospitality."
When Mia heard Sylvia's question, she responded with a tone that was both fearful and slightly relieved.
Yotsuba Mahiro simply nodded.
Then he turned his attention back to the girl who looked very reserved.
