“Blood manipulation: Striking blood!” From her hand, bullet-like blood was shot toward me. I was hit by a blood bullet and got fatal damage to my belly. I have no time to respond to the pain, I immediately get up and run toward her to get close to her. She then jumps backward and maintains her 10-meter distance away from me. “Blood manipulation: Striking blood!” “That attack again.” This time I used my sword to block the blood bullet. The blood was deflected. Eriko then swings her right hand from left to right. The defective bullet then transformed into a dagger. The dagger then moves toward me at high speed and stabs me in my left arm. “With some little imagination… This fight is just a piece of cake.” “You're not getting anywhere.” I said and get myself up. I charge toward Eriko and Eriko keeps on jumping backward. “Where is that power you have earlier? Play with me more. Play with me more. Entertain me, little girl.” Name: Race: HP: MP:
Seeing Eriko with her scythe is like seeing death coming to get me. My face is a grim expression and my body won’t move because of the pain I felt. Eriko lifted her scythe to deliver the final attack. “Sword skill: Heaven’s blade.” I heard a metallic sound and as I averted my eye I saw those people who helped me in this fort. Captain Yuri with her squad came to save me. “I'll stop the bleeding, relax your self Mayu... Max Healing!” Marry immediately rescue me by casting her healing magic. Rin was very worried after seeing my current state. “Are you okay?” Rin asked. “Be careful that demons can use blood manipulation ability. She also has high-speed regeneration.” I said. “You’re so kind for giving us advice, while you are in a dying state.” Yuri said and pointed her sword at Eriko. “What are these people doing? I thought I evade the fort with those monsters.” “All of those weak-level monsters are already defeated. We call for some reinforcement on the nearby country. Prep
Waking up in the morning. I immediately fix the bed and wash my face. I then go to the kitchen to prepare my breakfast. I fry eggs and use the leftover rice yesterday and make a bowl of fried rice. I also cook some sausage and lastly one glass of milk. That’s usually my breakfast every morning. I’m living for more than a month now in this city called Elesis fort. Even though many things happened and the city is destroyed because of the demon commander’s unexpected attack. The city stands tall and rises. The people are starting to accept the tragedy that happened that night. Time for quest hunting again. I wonder what kind of quest is available in the guild right now? I want to clear a grade B quest this time. Because of the beast's manipulation ability, Eriko uses it in the forest. Most of the monsters in the forest died and only little monsters and slime’s left. For hunting slime, the quest is normally grade D and has a low reward because it’s just an easy quest. All the quest
This is bad they’re already here. The destruction made by his sword. He doesn’t even care if he hit a civilian in his attack. “Knights of the starry night… They are the most elite knights of the inquisition.” Princess said. “I don’t want to have some business with them. Used lots of energy fighting that demon girl and I don’t like fighting someone I can’t bully.” Kisara said. From the dragon’s back, he dives down on our place. “I thought I will have a great battle with human-type demon-kind… However… What are you three doing here in Inquisition territory Exterminators? You people must be the cause of this trouble… I don’t really care about this city and the slaves. All I wanted to do is challenge myself in battle and have fun.” “We’re not interested… Don’t misunderstand us. We’re not the ones who made this city in the rumble.” Kisara answered. “Sorry, little miss but I don’t care about that too… You’re going to fight me. Want it or not.” He draws his sword. That sword is lik
“Marro, what is the meaning of this?” Asked the first commander of the starry knights, Sieg. A man with a stiff face only expressing pure seriousness. He had a very cold and scary demeanor around him. Enough for an average person to be intimidated just by his glace. That should be the case, but Mukuro or referred to by him as Marro. Look at his eyes with a straight gaze. “Nothing important… Workers decided to have a revolution and died worthless deaths. Their deaths would become a symbol of fear to other workers. From now on, I bet no one would ever do the same foolish action that happened tonight.” “That’s not the reason why we all came here… One of the seven heavenly knights appeared here according to the reports.” “I have no idea what our talking about… I’m only doing my job as a researcher in this facility. My research is everything, I don’t care above the other things.” “Research above anything… That exactly sounds like you. You’re a woman that is ready to kill her own daught
The whole street is decorated with colors. Food stalls and games all over the street. The kids were busy running around. A sight that I thought very rare in Artemis City. Ever since I got here, this is the first time I have seen this many kids. Different colorful lanterns are on each side of the streets. The silent city I know is now filled with noise. Not in a negative way. Everyone is smiling and having fun. “I’ve never seen a lot of people gather up in one place like this.” I muttered while gazing at the street. “I thought paradise was a fun place. Look at your reaction. I am starting to think that people in Paradise are living under the rocks.” Kisara said. “I’m not living in the main city… We non-noble blood are living on the edge of the island. Unlike the nobles, we are not allowed to participate in such events. I saw things like this happening on television but I never witnessed a festival with my own eyes.” “Then, you’re in luck… This festival will last for one week. Ther
People walked around in the streets filled with light. Different colors glimmer whenever I turned my glance. A variety of stalls and shops gathered on the streets. The smell of delicious food floats in the air. Kids running around having fun and couples could be seen holding each other's hands as they keep each other company for this one-in-a-year event. Watching them all pass through my eyes. I can’t keep myself but make a small grin on my face. Despite how cruel and twisted the world had become. Humans keep on moving forward and smiling. I didn’t notice this side of the world. My perspective and attitude toward things happening around me have gotten clouded. After I fell from the floating island here to Earthland. All in my mind was the worst thing that was happening around me. I saw this place as no different from hell. I was wrong… In front of me is the proof that the world can still be wonderful. “What’s taking them so long?” I whispered and then took a deep breath. I’m not
“It is really you, Red… I’m happy that I’m able to see someone I know in this place.” Yume said and then give me her cherubic smile. “What are you doing in this place?” “Isn’t it supposed to be obvious… I’m here the same as everyone. I’m here to attend the festival of light. On the last day of the festival, people are making lanterns and making it flying to the sky together with their wishes. I want to try that and make my wish come true.” She is right, what’s the other reason she’s here? Most importantly I’m glad that she is looking fine. There is no sign of her having an injury from her last battle. I heard that many people died in the pacific port. It was wise of me not to discuss something about that event. I was surprised that I’m able to see her again. “Are you here with someone? Or are you lost again like the previous time? Your servant would be worried again.” I said. “I’m here with Koroko but I got washed away by the crowd of people. It is fine Koroko has a keen sense
