Chapter 252 – Fallen Ones (4)
“Isn’t something strange these days?”
A word from Letia.
At that one word, I nodded my head.
“I definitely think so.”
Letia and I pursuing Vlad.
And other magical girls in charge of other districts.
What connects them is none other than the fairies, namely Levi next to me and Belfi next to Letia…
He hadn’t been seen since the two of them had been away recently.
To be precise, the state of disappearance.
When I called, there was no answer, and when Letia called, there was no answer.
Feeling like something is going on.
However, since I couldn’t go to the fairy world right away, I had no choice but to wait.
A street where you never know when monsters will pop out.
If we opened a portal to the fairy world in a place like this, monsters could take advantage of our distraction and cross over to the fairy world.
Again, fairies are corruptible beings.
Although they are beings with excellent abilities and even use magic, it was difficult to deal with monsters directly because they did not have good compatibility with monsters.
That’s why I ask the magical girls to fight instead.
Under these circumstances, if even one insignificant monster were to pass over to the fairy world, it was a predestined event that something big would happen.
Usually, the portal to the fairy world was a safe place, so each region would open a portal to the fairy world from a point judged safe or from their own house.
In a word, it is a difficult situation to open now.
That’s why Letia and I couldn’t help but worry about Belfi and Levi’s situation even more.
“Let’s continue for now.”
“Okay.”
Letia and I have reached such a deep place.
Since both of them are martial arts, they were faster than other magical girls in stabilizing the area.
That’s why I made a team with Letia, a martial artist, and Morgan, a magician.
However, since Morgan was away to help Siu recover, the two of them were forced to act alone.
“Here… “
A slightly melted building.
It’s hard to put into words, but I couldn’t find a more appropriate expression than this.
The building was covered in something that seemed to melt everything, but the concrete on the right had completely melted away, exposing the steel frame.
“Is Vlad here?”
Letia’s question.
I nodded my head at that question.
What I heard before Levy disappeared was that he said that he felt the energy of a strong monster here.
I don’t know if Vlad is exactly here, but Levy said it was close to the energy of the Four Heavenly Kings, so it must be Vlad.
All you have to do is go inside and attack.
However, the building seemed a little too dangerous, and above all, there seemed to be many ways to escape.
It feels like one side of the building has completely collapsed.
As a result, it seemed that Vlad could escape at any time if he put his mind to it.
“Levy said, but… Wouldn’t it be better for one person to wait outside?”
“I think Marika is right, but… “
The reason we came up with this plan was simply that Vlad was weaker than the other Four Heavenly Kings.
Four Four Heavenly Kings.
Among them, Vlad, who is called Vlad of Blood, has the power to turn people into monsters by biting them, so his individual fighting ability is weak.
So, it was for this reason that he immediately avoided the battle even though he had stolen his pure blood from Siwoo three days ago.
Of course, I don’t know what will happen if I absorb pure blood,
I caught everything like last time, but I should have avoided the situation where I missed it, so I handed this proposal to Letia.
But Letia, who looks a little worried about her.
Letia looked at me and offered another suggestion.
“It looks a little dangerous, but wouldn’t it be better to go and attack together?”
-I think this is what Letia said right?
This time, she is Lee Ji-eun, who raises Letia’s hand.
I thought about her words for a while, then nodded her head.
A situation where it might be better to work together to deal with Vlad.
So, I accepted Letia’s offer.
“Good. Let’s do it.”
“Thank you for respecting my opinion.”
Letia smiles brightly.
She felt that her heart felt a little more at ease when she smiled brightly after she had been depressed lately.
The state of deciding to work together.
I have an ohamma tied behind my back… No, I took out my sledgehammer,
Letia gathered strength in her hands and prepared for any possible attack from her enemies.
Inside the building I entered so slowly.
Inside the building, which had been melted down with something like a solution, the electricity was cut off and nothing could be seen.
“Light!”
Letia summoned something circular that emitted bright light.
Unlike me, who only fought with weapons, Letia could use simple magic, so she used magic to light up the dark building.
Let’s turn on the lights and the inside of the building is even more miserable.
A cobweb connected with frighteningly vivid blood.
In between the spider webs, beings that appeared to be human were tied.
It feels like prey caught in a spider’s web.
True to his nickname, Vlad of Blood, he was collecting people’s blood.
“It’s terrible… “
Letia became a magical girl faster than me.
It was such a terrible sight that she couldn’t help but say that it was terrible even from her mouth when she met various monsters and saw many gruesome scenes.
-A guy named Vlad really seems to have a bad taste.
Lee Ji-eun’s undeniable words.
She treated people as if they were eating her, and she couldn’t help but feel anger at his actions.
“Let’s move forward quickly. We need to fix it before more people get hurt.”
Letia nodded at my words.
She braced herself and moved forward slowly.
The bloody cocoons that get smaller as you move forward.
However, I thought these cocoons were a little strange.
“This… Doesn’t it look like it’s moving a bit?”
Letia nodded at my words.
The deeper you go into the building, the larger the cocoons become… It even felt like it was moving slightly, like a living creature.
Anxious feeling.
I kept thinking that I was different from the monsters I’d dealt with so far, those who acted like monsters after being vampirized by Vlad.
Letia and I keep moving forward like that.
Meanwhile, Letia suddenly stopped.
“Radish… What’s the matter.?”
Letia stood still and did not answer.
Seeing her strange behavior, I immediately raised my sledgehammer and took a guarded position.
– It feels strange.
Lee Ji-eun is also saying that the situation is strange.
That’s why I followed Lee Ji-eun’s words and carefully approached Letia with the utmost vigilance.
“Letia…?”
“Whoops… Whooping… “
Voice for the first time.
Hearing that voice, I immediately stepped back and took my stance.
“Don’t be too wary. After all, this is a dream.”
Letia turns her body to look at me.
But her voice was not the voice I knew, but the voice of a different being.
* * *
“You… Who are you… ?”
Marika and Marika enter the building to catch Vlad.
She, who was leading her, stopped at the sound of footsteps that faded as she walked, and looked behind her.
Then Marika disappears before she knows it.
When she suddenly disappeared, Marika instinctively knew that they had fallen for her trap.
“As expected, Letia. You look like the leader of magical girls.”
A voice from somewhere.
At that voice, Letia immediately took a guarded posture.
“Who are you!”
“Don’t be too wary. I have no intention of hurting you.”
“Sounds funny.”
Letia gathered strength in her hands.
As it was, she gathered her mana and manifested her power towards the audible voice.
Letia’s powerful power headed there.
But only the poor ceiling came crashing down.
“You don’t have to be so wary of me. I am on your side.”
“Are you on my side? Sounds funny.”
“I can’t believe it.”
A voice that sighs.
Letia repeatedly exerted her strength in the direction of the voice, but to no avail.
“Okay okay. I’ll show up, so break it down.”
“… “
A man who showed up after Letia stopped her attack.
When she saw the man who looked completely different from the Vlad she saw last time, Letia couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
“Where is Vlad?”
“Vlad must be dealing with Marika right now.”
A man who doesn’t care.
To be precise, the silver-haired, red-eyed child looked at Letia with a relaxed expression.
“What did you do to us?”
“It’s not a specific move, but the two of them kept chasing after Vlad, so we only made a small move.”
The silver-haired red-eyed man slowly approached Letia.
Seeing that, Letia immediately gathered her strength and prepared to rain down on her enemies.
“You saw that it didn’t work before, so you want to do it again? If you break it further, you and Marika will be in danger, right?”
“… “
A building in an unstable state.
So, when Letia thought of Marika, she had no choice but to stop her attack.
“You speak better than you think.”
“… Who are you?”
“Ah, you want to start with the voice? I am Delve, one of the Four Heavenly Kings. Well, the words are the Four Heavenly Kings, so there is nothing to do.”
“… Another Four Heavenly Kings?”
“That’s right. Thanks to Vlad’s hard work, I can move again. Oh, of course he looks like a child like this. Again, the original figure is a bit more handsome and sexy.”
The existence of Delv who speaks smirkingly.
Looking at her existence, Letia thought about how she could handle Delve.
“Are you still thinking like that? Because you can’t attack me. It is even more difficult to deal with.”
“… Uh… How.”
“I can read people’s minds. With that ability, you can make your wish come true.”
“What a strange sound… “
“You know the lamp fairy from that anime or fairy tale, right? It’s something like that. The difference from the lamp fairy in the anime is the give and take.”
Delv smiled so leisurely and slowly circled around Letia.
Seeing that figure, Letia swung her hand and tried to attack him, but every time her fist touched his body, she could be scattered like a mirage.
“I can read your mind. So I can grant any wish you want.”
“Do not lie.”
“It hurts so much right now that people criticize you. Is not it?”
Delv immediately recognized Letia’s worries.
At his words, Letia couldn’t help but be shaken inside.
“How did you know? Because I can read your true heart.”
“… “
“Anyway, even if you curse inside, you can hear everything, so you don’t have to say that.”
Delve smiled.
He stopped walking around Letia and smiled.
“Anyway, I can grant your wish… What do you think about it?”
