Chapter 91: No No No... I’m Just A Mere Human

Then she looked at Rin and asked, her raspy female voice filled with genuine curiosity and caution, the glowing white eyes inside the hood narrowing as she studied him closely.

"Who are you really? A god? Demi-god? Monster? What exactly are you?"

The question carried a weight of awe and wariness, her hooded head tilting slightly as she tried to make sense of the man standing so casually beside one of the most feared beings in existence.

Even though the occult group and others from their side didn’t recognize him, she recognized and knew exactly who Dracula was — the well-known, dreadful, horrendous Dracula, the ancient vampire lord feared across realms for his power and cruelty.

Seeing Rin walk and speak casually with him, treating the legendary being like an equal companion, made her ask who Rin really was.

Her spider legs clicked softly on the ground as she waited, her hooded head tilting slightly, the forest seeming to hold its breath as the question hung between them.

The female voice carried a mix of awe and wariness, the creature’s glowing white eyes fixed on Rin with intense scrutiny, as if trying to pierce through his casual demeanor to uncover the truth behind the man who stood so comfortably beside one of the most terrifying figures in monster lore.

The moonlight highlighted the contrast between the two men — Rin’s relaxed, human-like posture and Dracula’s elegant, ancient presence — making the question feel even more pressing in the quiet clearing.

The trees stood tall and silent around them, their leaves rustling softly as the standoff stretched on, the glowing white eyes of the monster watching Rin and Dracula with cautious intelligence.

The night air was cool against her hooded form, carrying the scent of pine and damp earth, as she waited for an answer that could change everything.

Then Rin replied to her, waving his hand passed his face in a casual, dismissive gesture, his palm open and fingers relaxed as he shook his head lightly.

"No no no... My name is Kiyoshi Rin, just a mere human."

His voice was calm and light, the wave of his hand brushing through the air as if brushing away the idea of anything grander.

His deep blue eyes met hers steadily, his black hoodie shifting with the small movement, his expression relaxed and almost amused, as if the question was no big deal. He stood there in the forest clearing,

the moonlight catching the subtle red-and-gold highlights in his hair (though in his normal form it was deep blue), his posture easy and unassuming, trying to downplay his power.

Then she still looked shocked because how can a mere human be like this.

Her glowing white eyes widened inside the hood, her spider legs shifting restlessly on the forest floor, crunching leaves and twigs as she processed the claim. The hooded head tilted further, the female voice silent for a moment as she struggled to reconcile the casual, seemingly ordinary young man with the way he stood so comfortably beside Dracula.

The shock was visible in the way her body tensed, the spider legs clicking faster against the ground, the glowing eyes flickering with disbelief and confusion.

A mere human speaking so casually with the ancient vampire lord?

It didn’t add up, and the monster’s posture showed her internal conflict, her hooded shoulders tensing as she tried to make sense of it.

Then the monster looked at Rin as she slightly tilted her head, saying, "Kyoshi?? That name sounds familiar..." Her raspy female voice carried a note of recognition, the glowing white eyes narrowing as she searched her memory, the spider legs tapping the ground thoughtfully.

Then Rin said to her, his voice calm and direct, "Do you attend school in Seishin Academy?"

The monster replied, "Yes... I work in the school as a teacher."

She explained how she went to school in Seishin Academy in human form as a teacher, which made it easier for her to track the book of the forbidden spell.

In her human disguise, she could move freely through the hallways, interact with students and staff, and search the library and offices without raising suspicion.

The role gave her access to records, schedules, and hidden corners of the school, allowing her to hunt for the book during off-hours while blending in as an ordinary educator.

Her glowing white eyes dimmed slightly as she spoke, the spider legs clicking softly as she described the advantage of the disguise, the female voice carrying a note of practicality and caution.

Then Rin said to her, "Then you know Kyoshi Chiyo..."

Then the monster realized, saying,

"Wait, you are related to Chiyo?" Her glowing white eyes widened again inside the hood, her spider legs shifting with surprise as she processed the connection. She was also Chiyo’s teacher in the school, having interacted with the girl in class and noticed her potential. The revelation that Rin was Chiyo’s brother caught her off guard, her hooded head tilting as she connected the dots, the female voice carrying a mix of surprise and newfound respect.

The monster’s posture relaxed a fraction, the spider legs settling as she realized the human before her had personal ties to the school.

Then Rin replied, "Yes, she’s my little sister..."

Then Rin said to her, "Do look after her, okay?"

His voice was gentle but firm, his blue eyes steady as he asked the monster to watch over Chiyo, his protective instinct clear in the way he spoke, the forest clearing feeling warmer for a moment as he entrusted the creature with his sister’s safety.

Then the monster replied, "Sure... she’s a good girl." Her raspy female voice carried a note of sincerity, the glowing white eyes softening slightly as she acknowledged Chiyo’s character, the spider legs clicking softly as she agreed. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Then Rin said to her, "Alright, I’ll be heading back now... don’t worry, I’ll try to get the rest out of the school so you can continue your search."

His voice was reassuring, his posture relaxed as he prepared to leave, the black hoodie shifting with his movement as he turned slightly toward Dracula.

Then she replied, "Thank you."

The female voice was soft, carrying genuine gratitude as the hooded figure nodded slightly, the glowing white eyes dimming with relief.

Then Dracula in the background said to her, his rich, aristocratic voice laced with boredom and superiority, "Count your stars... we would have whooped your ass if you hadn’t complied."

The vampire lord’s words were casual but carried the weight of centuries of power, his long black coat billowing as he spoke, his silver-streaked hair catching the moonlight.

He looked at the monster with mild disdain, as if the encounter had been a minor inconvenience.

But the monster didn’t say a word.

She just stood there, her glowing white eyes avoiding Dracula’s gaze, her spider legs shifting nervously on the forest floor.

She knew Dracula was a terrifying being, one of the most feared legends in the monster realm, and she was scared to even look him directly in the eyes.

The hooded head lowered slightly, the female form tense as she remained silent, the forest clearing feeling heavier with the vampire lord’s presence.

The standoff in the forest ended with a tense silence, the moonlight filtering through the trees as Rin and Dracula prepared to leave, the hooded monster watching them depart with cautious respect.
