Chapter 4

"Then, should I take your blood?" The vampire smiled slightly, fangs showing.

"Has someone hired you or something?" Leona said looking at the vampire.

"That position defense...It seems she has experience" the vampire thought "It may be more interesting than I thought"

"Speaks!"

"No one has hired me girl, let's see how you manage to get out of this because otherwise, your blood will be mine!" The vampire shouted as jumped from above the lamppost and went to Leona.

"Here comes" Leona said, then she jumped back to avoid the vampire and gain distance between them "So, you are the vampire" Leona said looking at the vampire.

"Ha! Yes girl, I am! But, enough chitchat, I didn't come for have a chat with you" the vampire said, fangs showing in a smile "Let's see how you manage on your own"

Leona gave a serious look to the vampire, then she saw the vampire was running toward her again, she deflected the attack with her right hand and with the other tried to hit the vampire, but suddenly, the vampire appeared behind Leona and before she could turn the vampire did a roundhouse kick in the air, hitting her in the back and sending her crashing straight against one of the trees that were there.

"Is it over? I thought you could entertain me more, what a disappointment" The vampire said with a hand on her waist, looking at Leona with a raised eyebrow and waving her other hand.

"Well, pardon me for not meeting your expectations" Leona said with a look of pain from the blow and with a sarcastic tone in her words, sitting on the ground, leaning against the trunk of the tree.

"So, where were we? Ah yes, your blood" the vampire said smiling and showing the fangs as walked slowly toward Leona.

"He or she is fast... I must do something" Leona thought, as she barely tried to stand up for herself from the ground. "Let's see what you think about this, vampire! Ice Spears!" Leona said moving her arm diagonally upwards, then several magical blue circles appeared around her and of them, came several spears made out of ice out of the circle and it shot out toward the vampire.

"Oho?" the vampire said, smiling as dodged effortlessly "I was right, and apparently, you are a user ice magic" the vampire said, still dodging her attack, then suddenly Leona showed up from behind to hit the vampire with her fist "A distraction" the vampire said dodging and jumping back to avoid Leona, in doing so, the hat went flying down to the ground and thus, revealing the vampire's face.

"A woman?" Leona said looking at her, her eyes were blue as sapphire, and her hair was knee length light blonde, Leona looked at the woman and she felt how her glance went through her soul. "Tch" Leona said closing her eyes and shaking her head.

"What's up? Aren't you going to continue? Then, I will" The woman said smiling. "Lic Lac La Lac Lilac… Veniant Spiritus Glaciales, extentantur aeri, tundram et glaciem, loci noctis albae… "Oh, by the way... I also use ice magic" the woman said smiling "Crystallizatio Tellustris!" the woman shouted, the earth's surface to instantly froze, causing jagged pillars of ice to jut up from the ground, then, Leona quickly jumped into the air to dodge it.

"Where is she?" Leona said looking sideways as she was descending to the ground looking for her.

"I'm here, girl" the woman said, Leona turned around and saw the woman behind her about to hit her with her fist "How can she-" then she blocked the blow crossing her arms but the hit was so strong that she crashed into the ground making a small hole in it. "Ah!" Leona shouted, the woman went to her and grabbed Leona by the neck with her hand as was smiling, Leona gave her a look of annoyance and kicked her up in the stomach with the legs to pull her away. "Oho?" the woman said, landing on the ground standing up, Leona got up from the ground and quickly went to the woman and started hitting her several times one after another while the woman was returning the blows, going backwards. "She has technique but her defense also leaves openings and apparently she doesn't realize about it" the woman thought, then one of the blows that Leona was going to hit her, she stopped it taking her arm, Leona wanted to give her a kick, but the woman grabbed Leona's leg with her free hand and with her right leg hit Leona's leg in which she was keeping stand up, and before she fell on the ground, the woman hit her in the stomach and Leona was crashed hard against the ground.

"Why… Why I can't hit her..." Leona thought, looking at her with a pained expression by the blow.

"Well, I guess this is over" the woman said looking at her on the ground.

"No..." Leona said panting, trying to catch air, Leona tried to hit her, but the woman stopped the blow, grabbing Leona's fist with her hand. "Are you at your limit already?" the woman said as she threw her against the trees "Sagitta Magica, series glacialis" the woman said, sending several arrows of ice towards Leona.

"Tch... Ice Barrier..." Leona said as she raised her arm making an ice shield on the ground in front of her, the arrows slammed into the shield causing both broken.

"Again... It's the second time, apparently, she can cast spells without having to say the incantation" the woman thought as she approached Leona.

"Dammit..." Leona said, sitting on the ground with her back against a tree "Why..." Leona said panting, looking at the woman as she bent down to her height and brought her face close to her own, while she was staring at her.

"If you mean because you can't beat me, well, I have much more experience than you, now, I would like to know how you can use chant-less magic "Have you that level?" the woman asked, raising an eyebrow as she was looking at Leona, then, Leona glanced away. "Don't you want to say it eh?, hmph" the woman said as she put her hand on Leona's cheek, removing the trickle of blood that had on her lower lip "It doesn't matter for now, now..." she said, smiling and showing her fangs "I'm going to take your blood!" the woman said approaching at Leona's neck. Then, when she was a few centimeters from the neck…

"Evangeline!"

"Eh?" Leona said, looking at someone who was running toward them.

"Tsk, Kagurazaka"

"Would you mind telling me what you think you are doing?!" Asuna said running with Negi behind her towards where they were.

"Just now" Evangeline said as she stood up, staring at them.

"Leona!" Negi said looking at her worried, she had some injuries in her body.

"You are Negi and you... Asuna?" Leona said looking at them.

"Evangeline! Do you think it is normal?! Why did you attack her! "Asuna shouted with a serious expression looking at the woman, now known as Evangeline.

"Oh, calm down Kagurazaka, I didn't cause her severe injuries, on the other hand, I wanted to check something" Evangeline said with her arms crossed over her chest.

"Eh? What thing?"

"She is a mage"

"Are you a mage too?" Negi said looking at Leona with his staff in his hand, she nodded "I'm also a mage and she is my minister" Negi said, raising his hand halfway up his body, pointing at Asuna while he was looking at her.

"Even so, I still think there were other ways to find out if she was a mage or not " Asuna said looking at Evangeline, narrowing her eyes.

"Hum...Have you met before?" Leona asked, while she was looking at them.

"She is Evangeline; She goes to our class" Asuna said sighing.

"Eh?" Leona said confused "Evangeline... Is she in our class?"

"Ah... Of course, you don't recognize her" Asuna said looking at Evangeline.

"All right" Evangeline said, closing her eyes and sighing, then snapped her fingers and vanished in a flash, when it cleared, Evangeline returned to her form of a 10-year-old.

"Ah! You! "Leona shouted looking at Evangeline surprised.

"Master, you shouldn't attack the students like that..." Negi said looking at her.

"Exactly" Asuna said, staring at her.

"Hmph" Evangeline said looking away "You don't tell me what I have to do Kagurazaka, besides, didn't you see that she wanted to see me?"

"You should have introduced yourself in the class" Asuna said.

"I wouldn't have caused any impression if I had introduced myself in the class" Evangeline said, as she did the same than before and she reverted to her adult form in another flash.

"So, are you the one who attacked Ako?" Leona said.

"No" Evangeline said looking at her "She fainted alone"

"Eh?"

"Look, Leona, Eva-chan was going to take the blood of Negi as payment, but then Ako saw them and fainted upon seeing that scene" Asuna said with a sigh.

"It's not my fault she was fainted with only that" Evangeline said with her arms crossed over her breasts.

"You did scare the poor Ako, you could have gone somewhere else" Asuna said, then she saw that Leona was getting up "Leona?"

"I have to go..." Leona said.

"Eh? You can't go with those wounds, also, Haruna and Ku Fei are going to ask you when they see you" Asuna said, looking at her with a worried expression.

"I will tell them I crashed with a lamppost pretty hard" Leona said, staring at Evangeline.

"What do you mean by that, girl?" Evangeline said with a fake smile.

"Master, we should tell Konoka" Negi said looking at her "She can heal her wounds"

"Eh? No, I prefer to treat their wounds at my home" Evangeline said with her hands on her waist.

"What? Did I hear right? Since when you have that kind side Eva-chan" Asuna said, staring at Evangeline with a hand on her chin.

"What do you mean by that?"

"It's strange" Asuna said.

"Do you want to take her in that condition by the bedrooms? Well, if you prefer that all the other girls see and around you with their stupid questions, do it, I don't care anyway" Evangeline said, closing her eyes and shrugging her shoulders, then, Asuna began to imagine Kazumi and the rest around them.

"Uh... Okay... I guess" Asuna said looking at Negi.

"Don't worry Asuna, I don't think that the master will do any harm to her" Negi said smiling.

"Then... Chachamaru!" Evangeline shouted, suddenly Chachamaru appeared before them, descending out of the sky.

"W- What? Where did she come from?" Leona said looking at Chachamaru surprised.

"Yes mistress?"

"Take the girl, we are leaving"

"Understood mistress" Chachamaru said as she took Leona in a bridal style "Wait! What about my opinion? I didn't say I want to go!"

"Sorry, those are mistress's orders"

"As if it was ordered by the Council of this school!" Leona shouted, but Chachamaru ignored her and flew away with Evangeline while Leona was protesting.

"Do you think it was a good idea to leave them?" Asuna said with a drop behind her head, looking at them.

"I hope so" Negi said.

/Grace of Destiny/

Leona was sitting on the couch with Chachamaru healing her wounds, when they entered into the cabin, Evangeline ordered Chachamaru to heal her as she went to her room.

"Ow!" Leona shouted with a pained expression as Chachamaru was dabbing the cotton with alcohol on Leona's cheek, while Leona as trying to avoid it.

"Please don't move, I immediately finish" Chachamaru said attending her injuries, Leona narrowed eyes, a few minutes after, Chachamaru finished cure her.

"It is done" Chachamaru said, saving the things in the first aid kit.

"Um... Thank you... Do the two of you live here alone?" Leona said looking around her, where they were was a cabin, the place was quite cozy, apart from the couch where they were sitting, were two tables; One in front of the couch and the other in front of one of the windows that were in the dining room, also there was a fireplace next to it, a small grandfather clock hanged on the opposite wall and some paintings hanged on the walls, a few lamps; Two bell-shaped and one candelabra chandelier hanging down from the ceiling, also, there was a staircase leading to the upstairs, but, the thing that most was there, it was stuffed animals and dolls scattered all over the site.

"Yes, the mistress and I are living here" Chachamaru replied.

"I live here too" a voice said, it came from the stuffed animals that were on a wooden furniture.

"Eh?" Leona looked at the stuffed animals.

"I'm here girl" the voice said, Leona saw a green-eyed doll, she was sitting watching her, she had short hair with the same color and two bat wings on her back, also, she was wearing a black dress with a red tie.

"It's Chachazero" Chachamaru said looking at Leona "She lives with us"

"A bat-doll?" Leona looked at Chachazero. "Can you speak?"

"How rude, if I could move, you wouldn't live to tell about it and you don't even think about coming to touch me, inferior human being"

"…"

"Are you finished, Chachamaru?" Evangeline said, walking down the stairs.

"Yes mistress"

"Alright, you can retire now" Evangeline said, looking at her.

"As you wish, mistress" Chachamaru said, getting up off the couch "With your permission" Chachamaru said bowing, then, she walked toward a room.

"Why is she here?" Chachazero said "Is she some victim, mistress? Can I suggest some method of torture? Ke, ke, ke" Chachazero said laughing.

"Well... I… I should go back... Thanks for everything" Leona said getting off the couch.

"No, sit down" Evangeline said, moving toward her.

"W-Why?" Leona asked with a nervous tone and stepping back, after Chachazero said that.

"I want you to give me the payment for healing your wounds" Evangeline said, looking at her.

"What?"

"You already heard me" Evangeline said as she sat on the couch, crossing her legs, one over the other.

"I have no money right now, besides, who healed my wounds, it was Chachamaru"

"But I told her to do it and about the payment... I don't want money" Evangeline said, smiling at her.

"So what do you want?" Leona said as she sat down on the couch.

"I want to..." Evangeline said as she approached Leona, raised her hand and slid her index finger down Leona's neck while her other arm was on the back of the couch. "Your blood" she said smiling, showing her fangs, then a shadow covered Leona's eyes.

"...My blood..." Leona said looking at her "Are you still with that?"

"I am an evil mage, if I offer you my help, you have to give me something in return"

"Even though Chachamaru was the one who cured me..." Leona murmured, looking away in another direction.

"What was that?" Evangeline said.

"Nothing, it's okay, you can take my blood... How much would you take?" Leona asked her in a worried tone, looking at her.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you"

"What? Aren't you going to kill her, mistress? Good night" Chachazero said in an indignant tone.

"Then, it's okay..." Leona said.

"Aren't you going to put up resistance like before?" Evangeline asked, raising an eyebrow.

"That was because you attacked me suddenly, the cause is different now, though" Leona said. "It's just..." she looked down, and then at Evangeline.

"What?" Evangeline said, raised an eyebrow.

"It's the first time I'm going to be bitten by a vampire" Leona said with a slight blush and a nervous tone, Evangeline let out a chuckle laugh.

"Don't worry, it isn't going to hurt too much" Evangeline said, smiling, then, she grabbed her hand around Leona's waist, pulled Leona body close to her and pulled her fangs to Leona's neck as she brushed it, she noticed that Leona was trembling slightly. "This is going to hurt less if you aren't so tense" Evangeline whispered in Leona's ear.

"What-" Leona said, then before biting her, she licked Leona's neck and quickly sank her fangs into it. Leona let out a small groan of pain, while Evangeline began to drink from her blood, a few seconds later, the pain was gone and it was replaced by a sensation that she could not describe and she had never quite experienced before.

"This feeling, her blood is so delicious and pure..." Evangeline thought as she continued to drink Leona's blood, it was better than she had imagined, it was so delectable, so warm, she knew all the blood was, but it had something special, something that made her follow, she heard small moans of Leona and she tightened her grip against Leona, without letting her go.

"E-Eva..." Leona moaned in a broken voice, feeling more and more weak, after a few more seconds, Evangeline pulled her fangs from Leona's neck and flicked her tongue over the marks, wiping a small trace of blood and healing the bite mark she left on Leona's neck with her saliva, then she moved away from her neck to look at her, Leona had her cheeks flushed.

"Just as I thought, your virgin blood is better than I imagined it would be, I've been wanting to taste your blood since our meet at Sakura Lane, I smelled you" Evangeline said, licking her lips, looking at her.

"Since Sakura Lane... Tsk, that's what you wanted from the beginning" Leona said blushing, trying to recover from the bite "Now I'm going to have the mark of the bite..." Leona said as she stroked her neck with her hand "Wait... H- H- How do you know I'm a virgin?!" Leona shouted, now completely blushing.

"You aren't going to have any mark of the bite, vampire saliva has healing ability, can heal wounds, but, it only heals the bite and about because I know you're a virgin, it's because of the smell of your blood, vampires have that ability. The blood of virgin humans contains magical properties, and usually the virgin blood is more 'pure', it is like a sweet intoxicating aroma, if you were to get a wound, I could smell the blood, even at great distances, but even removing this, by your reaction to say you that you were, was too evident"

"Hum..." Leona said, still blushing. "Well, I should get going..." Leona said, getting up from the couch.

"Are you leaving now, Leona?" Chachamaru asked from the kitchen door. "Do you know how to come back?"

"Yes, I know where it is" Leona replied, going to the door to leave.

"See you tomorrow" Chachamaru said.

"Ok" Leona said, opened the door and closed it behind her. "If this is dark, there isn't even a street lamp here..." Leona said as she entered the forest.

"Mistress, I think you took too much... She looked rather tired" Chachamaru said looking at her.

"Huh? Don't worry Chachamaru, tomorrow she will be recovered"

"You should have tortured her and then left her dry, no one would have noticed and I would have got rid of the body" Chachazero said.

"Haven't you gone to sleep?" Evangeline said looking at Chachazero with a narrow look. "Besides... It would be a waste not to take advantage of her blood..." Evangeline said smiling as she ran her fingers over her lips, licking it as she remembered.

/Grace of Destiny/

Leona had reached the bedrooms where she settled, took the key from her pocket, and opened the door, closing it behind her.

"Leona!" Haruna shouted, looking at her "We didn't know where you were"

"Asuna told us you went for a walk" Ku Fei said.

"It isn't so late, though, rather nine o'clock, but we wondered why you took so long," Haruna said. "And that wound?" Haruna asked, looking at Leona as she pointed to her own cheek with her index finger.

"Let's say I stumbled upon something" Leona said, sighing and looking away in another direction.

"Eh?" Haruna and Ku Fei said both at the same time

"I'm rather tired... I'm going to sleep" Leona said, looking at them.

"Sure, whatever you want" Haruna said.

"Good night" Leona said as she walked to her bed. "Because I felt that way before..." Leona thought as she touched her neck with her hand.
