Chapter 435: The heroines start the killing
Chapter 435: The heroines start the killing
But...
"I'll kill you one hundred times!" Mio uttered her signature phrase.
At the same time, hellfire spurted from her hand and burned a dozen Iscariot members in the backyard of the school.
"Ahh! It's hot! Hot!"
"Damn, why can't I put out this fire with my water magic?!"
"Healer-type mage, give me healing magic!"
Mio looked at the people rolling on the ground indifferently. It didn't take long for those who were burned by her hellfire to turn into ashes.
Even though they tried to extinguish the flames with water magic or something.
It was useless.
With her current power that had been greatly enhanced by the Master-Servant contract, or rather having sex with Eiji many times.
Mio's face was slightly flushed from thinking of lewd things.
"Hmph!" She snorted to clear her mind and stared at a certain direction where Maria and the others were.
Just like her, the others must also be killing cockroaches. There were many of them, so he should also look for other cockroaches.
*Boom!*
"Gaghhh..!"
On the other side of the school. An Iscariot member was kicked by Maria and her body was thrown until it crashed into another Iscariot member.
The scene was like a bowling ball that was thrown with the speed of a bullet and knocked down all the bowling pins.
Even though the evil ones supporting from behind had already prepared a magic barrier.
In the face of Maria's pure physical strength, all barriers were as fragile as glass. Maria didn't even bother changing into her adult form, her loli form that Eiji liked to hug was very strong!
At this moment, on the school street. Maria walked step by step with a mischievous smile on her face.
"W-Who are you?! You, you're not a student of this school!" One of the women who was a member of Iscariot asked. The corpse of her colleague who had just been kicked was already dead with a hole in her stomach and her blood splashing on the faces and clothes of the other Iscariot members.
They stared at the silver-haired loli walking towards them in horror.
Of course some of them had tried to attack the girl. For example, they threw enough fireballs to blow up several houses.
But she casually slapped away all those fireballs with her bare hands and all the attacks vanished.
From the mage's point of view, they even doubted if Maria was a human?
They didn't know the loli was a succubus because she didn't bother to show her succubus form either.
"Who am I? Hehe. Indeed, I'm not a student of this school. You just need to know that I'm one of Eiji-san's women and his favorite loli bride-to-be! You're all going to die, dead people don't need to know my name~"
Maria's cute figure suddenly disappeared and appeared among them. In the next second— the head of one of the Iscariot members exploded.
Then even though they were all women; Maria did not hesitate to break bones and brutally kill them all. Everything was done with just punches and a bit of martial arts executed at an absurd speed.
Maria's current level had surpassed that of a Demon Lord in her franchise. So if she wanted to and was a little more serious, she could defeat Demon Lord Wilbert who was actually her father or Leohart who was a Demon Lord of the Demon Lord faction.
The lolicons out there except Eiji would probably shiver knowing a loli as cute as Maria who had that succubus charm could break their bones so easily.
On the Rias side, Akeno, Kurumi, Celis, Zekka and the others were the same. They easily defeated the Iscariot members they encountered with their respective powers.
All the students who had been evacuated by Yui to her dream world were watching the battle of the people in Eiji's group as if they were watching a livestream from there in awe.
Selina who was also there to win over the students who were panicking due to the Iscariot members' attacks also felt the same way.
"Amazing... Mio-san, Maria-san and the others were able to defeat the Iscariot members who were almost all high-level mages with ease!"
"Luckily there were them when Onee-chan, Eiji-san, Lilith-sensei, Arata-san and the other Trinity Seven were away from school."
"Otherwise..."
Selina could imagine that they would not have had time to evacuate and many students would have died because of the attacks by the Iscariot members.
Although Yui was a cardinal-class mage whose power was only one level lower than the principal and there were also other Trinity Seven members like Levi and Arin; they would definitely have a hard time and Selina herself was not sure she could defeat the Iscariot members who numbered in the hundreds.
She was weak, she was not as strong as her extremely talented older sister...
At this moment, the suddenly depressed Selina felt a hand gently rubbing her head.
"Yoshi, Yoshi, Selina-chan can definitely become stronger too! Yui believes you can do it~"
"Yui-senpai, you... How did you know I was thinking that?" Selina looked at her Senpai whose hairstyle changed and body became more mature than her lolippai form in a daze.
"Fufufu. Yui of course knows. After all, you are now in the dream world created by her. Here, not only peeping into other people's dreams, Yui can also read other people's minds to a certain extent~!"
Yui spun around with her arms outstretched, her amber eyes with cruciform pupils seemed to shine slightly before stopping and looking at everyone with a childish smile on her face.
It was hard for others to be afraid of her even though she said rather scary things.
After all, Selina and all the students who were not strong enough were pulled into a dream world created by Yui's magic.
More precisely it was one of her magic spells called "Starry Night Serenade". As a mage of the Avaritia Archive whose level had reached cardinal grade, she could use this level of magic with ease.
If not for having to evacuate the students, Yui could defeat most of the Iscariot members by herself.
"Is that so? Yui-senpai is so strong... I see, I'll train harder after this!"
Selina was so easy, Yui's words were effective in motivating her. The bespectacled blonde girl's eyes even lit up before her gaze shifted to the other livestream screen and said, "Still, Levi-san and Arin-san seem to be in an unfavorable situation when fighting that group leader."
Yui and the other students were also staring at the battle in question.
What Selina said was indeed true.
In a certain large area of the school. Now Levi had many sword scratches all over her body and Arin's condition was no better.
They panted and looked at a young woman standing not far in front of them warily.
The woman had white hair tied into a ponytail and a face that lacked expression. She wore a dark eye patch over her right eye and a shoulder-length red kimono over a black unitard that accentuated her modest but firm-looking breasts.
Cough, she's beautiful.
Her name was Lugh, she was also the Iscariot member who led the attack on the Royal Biblia Academy.
She held two katanas in her hands each of which was a legendary treasure she stole from the Sky Library, she stole like a man who stole a certain sword in the same place and looked at the two girls kneeling in front of her flatly.
Eiji: Hey it wasn't me who did it; it was Miss System who stole Judecca from that place.
If Eiji heard the dog author's monologue, he would definitely complain.
"Is this the power of Trinity Seven? The two of you are not strong enough to defeat me and are so vulnerable before the power of the Goddess of Light."
"Honestly... This disappoints me."
While Arin was silent and only frowned at Lugh's words mocking them; Levi laughed, she tried to stand up with the hand that made the ninjutsu seal.
"As expected of a master of high-speed magic 'Luminescence Technique' who is nicknamed the Goddess of Light and the second strongest person in the world. To be able to corner me to this extent, you are the second."
"Oh who's the first?" Lugh was curious and asked.
She ignored Levi's shameless words because so far she had been unable to dodge many of her attacks. The ninja said as if she was actually superior to her.
Don't you think too highly of yourself?
Lugh originally wanted to say this but she was more curious about the person Levi was referring to.
"That's a handsome guy named Eiji-san. Unfortunately he is out of school with the other Magic King Candidates and Trinity Seven. You guys must have planned this attack well."
"Handsome guy? How handsome is that?" Lugh became more interested although her expression did not change.
Levi grinned, "99 out of 100."
One point was lost because she did not know if there were other men more handsome than Eiji out there.
Selina, Yui, the students watching the live broadcast and the principal watching silently fell silent.
Obviously the two fought fiercely before, but why were they now talking about the topic of Eiji?
And Lugh, she seemed to want to ask further about that guy.
But before she did, she frowned as she realized that all the other members of Iscariot who attacked the school had died.
She also sensed that there were many strong magic fluctuations from various places in the school and many explosions in the distance. This level made Lugh not want to waste any time.
"Looks like you've realized it, Lugh-san?" Levi stopped making ninjutsu seals with her hands. From the beginning she did it just to buy time for Lugh to think she was preparing to attack even though she was actually waiting for reinforcements to arrive soon.
And if not, she would pretend to use the fake "Last Crest" from her Invidia Archives to escape from Lugh with Arin.
However, that seemed unnecessary.
"Yes, they seem to be dead. This is strange, wasn't your school lacking strong mages at this time? Why now..."
Lugh who knew Hijiri's plan to make most of the strong mages in Royal Biblia Academy go to Royal Liber Academy originally thought this mission would go easily.
But they seemed to be wrong. There were more powerful mages in this school.
"Hehe surprise. Lugh-san, are you sure you want to continue this fight?" Asked Levi with a mocking grin on her face
"I'm sure soon my husband and the others will also come." Arin tried to stand up from the ground and added while holding the scythe in her hand tightly.
Lugh narrowed her eyes. "Unless Hijiri is defeated, it's impossible for the Magic King Candidate and the other Trinity Seven to return. Regardless, I just need to kill you guys quickly."
Saying that, Lugh's figure turned into a beam of light and moved at the speed of light. The two swords, or rather double katanas in her hands were aiming for Levi and Arin's necks.
Levi and Arin's eyes were unable to keep up with Lugh's speed. At this moment, they would probably lose their heads!
*Clang!*
Lugh who wanted to almost succeed in decapitating the two girls from behind was stunned. Levi and Arin immediately looked back in surprise. Why?
It was because Lugh's double swords were blocked by a sword shining with golden light.
The person holding that sword was a light blue-haired girl.
It was Yuki! Levi and Arin recognized her of course but Lugh?
With a slight push from the sword in Yuki's hand; the white-haired woman was thrown back until she had to thrust both her swords into the ground to stop her body from crashing into the building behind her.
"Levi, Arin. Sorry I'm a bit late." Yuki said with an expressionless face. She or any of the Eiji girls could have come earlier if not for Rias telling them to wait for the critical moment.
Rias said it was important even though they had defeated the other Iscariot members easily.
In the end the one who was chosen to help was her.
While Levi and Arin nodded and said it was okay to Yuki without knowing she could come earlier, Lugh whose attack had just been blocked and pushed away by Yuki was excited.
She looked at the light blue-haired girl in a different school uniform and asked, "Who are you? This is the first time I've seen another mage who also uses a sword like you. You managed to block a slash with my light speed. By the way, is your sword also a legendary treasure? It looks really good..."
Lugh's gaze dropped to the sword in Yuki's hand and her eyes looked greedy.
Yuki raised her eyebrows, "You have a lot of questions and the last time someone stared greedily at the sword my lover gave me, the Sword of Four Seasons— that person died. But according to Rias; a woman with your appearance shouldn't be just a background character."
"A background character?"
While Lugh was confused, Arin and Levi had strange expressions.
Yuki did not bother answering other questions and introduced herself.
"I'm Yuki Nonaka, hero. I will defeat you and capture you."
...
Back to the present, precisely when Hijiri had just escaped.
Eiji didn't know Yuki had captured a heroine for him and was waiting for his praise.
The girls were very nice.
He never asked them to be his wingmen. They did it on their own initiative.
If a wife does that. What else should a husband ask for?
[Host, please stop with the things you hear from eastern novels. It's poisoning your brain to a worrying level.]
Miss System made a rude comment to her host...
Eiji naturally ignored the woman. He put Judecca back into his inventory and said to the protagonist who was still dazed at his cousin's departure.
"Arata, don't be sad. I'm sure you'll meet Hijiri again in the future."
[Actually, I'm afraid that's not possible.]
The heroines: ???
Trinity Seven: ???
Why are this man's mouth and inner voice often out of sync?
Arata gasped, he looked at Eiji who was comforting him and felt that the boy was really his friend.
He smiled confidently and said, "Eiji you're right! Besides, Hijiri said she hasn't given up on her plan to kill me. One day she will definitely appear in front of me again."
This protagonist seemed happy to know his cousin wanted to kill him.
Not only Eiji. Even Lilith, Mira, Lieselote and the others were looking at Arata with strange looks.
Eiji pretended to cough and said, "Well for now you guys should head back to school to check on the situation there. Radix and Ilia, you should also go with them and wait for me to return."
Arata and the others were confused. Many of them agreed with what Eiji said and were curious about what happened at school. But the last part Eiji said made Lilith couldn't help but ask.
"Wait Eiji, you're not coming with us? Where are you going?"
The red-haired girl grabbed Eiji's wrist which made Arata feel sour.
"Lilith, don't worry. I'll be back soon. I suddenly remembered something and had to get it quickly before someone else got ahead of me."
Eiji gently released Lilith's hand that was holding his. He didn't forget to rub the back of the girl's hand which made her blush.
After that, without wasting any more time—
"W-Who's worried about you! Eiji, I'm just..."
Lilith who was staring at the ground because she was too embarrassed didn't notice the man in front of her had already disappeared and only realized it when Lieselote patted her shoulder.
"Lilith-sensei~ Eiji is gone, he seems to have teleported away."
"...?"
Feeling the girls' gazes, especially Lieselote who was grinning and Arata who looked a little sad. Lilith's face was as red as the hair of Rias, Mio and herself.
Meanwhile.
In a forest located about two kilometers away from the Royal Liber Academy.
Hijiri had deactivated her Satan mode and her appearance returned to normal. Even so, her face was pale and her body looked slightly transparent. She leaned against one of the trees while trying to contact her master.
However—
"It's been a few days and until now Master still can't be contacted. Hehe... Will I never be able to see Arata again?"
Hijiri laughed bitterly.
There was actually one thing she hadn't told her cousin because Eiji's counterattack was stronger than she thought even though she managed to block it.
It was the condition of her body.
She could not stay longer in this world and every time this happened, she needed her master, Master Liber to restore her body condition.
Although it didn't really heal her since her body was destroyed in the first place when she was sucked in by the black sun Arata created in the past. At least, it could give her more time.
But without Master Liber. If she ran out of time here, she was worried that she would really not be able to see Arata again in the future.
"Ah..." Seeing her own hands getting more and more transparent, Hijiri felt so desperate that she started crying.
She wanted to blame Eiji because he hit a girl like her too hard. That man must not know her body was more fragile than it looked, he was not being gentle even though he had promised Arata.
Even so, Hijiri immediately mocked herself in her mind.
They were enemies after all. What did she expect from a man like Eiji?
She blamed herself for being too arrogant.
Hijiri did not realize it. But when she was dying like this; instead of thinking about Arata, she thought more about Eiji whom she had just met for the first time.
At this moment, in her last minutes. The voice of the man she was thinking about was heard.
"Wow... Who is this? Is that you Hijiri? You surprised me. I thought the crying girl with a transparent body in the middle of the forest was a ghost."
"Bastard!"
Hijiri raised her head and shouted. Her vision was a bit blurry due to her current condition, but she was sure the tall figure standing in front of her was Eiji.
Somehow the man had discovered her whereabouts and she was sure he was now grinning.
Instead of comforting her, this man was mocking her.
He really was a bastard!
Hijiri's face was flushed with anger. If she was as strong as a few minutes ago, she wanted to bite the man in front of her.
"You're not wrong, I am indeed a bastard." Eiji said and crouched down so that his and Hijiri's gazes were aligned.
Hijiri was confused, this was the first time she heard a man admit he was a bastard.
Even when her vision was blurry, she could still imagine Eiji's handsome face that made her upset.
She felt a little guilty for Arata.
"You... What do you want? If you want to kill me, don't bother. Don't you see my body right now? I'm going to die soon... although, I was already..."
Hijiri did not save words and instead laughed, she looked as evil as pathetic.
However, the man in front of her asked indifferently.
"Hm... If you die, it will be a bit troublesome. After all, I promised Arata to bring you back."
"Eiji, are you really friends with Arata?"
Hijiri couldn't help but ask with doubt in her voice.
Eiji looked a little offended and said, "Of course. A girl like you can't see it because you don't understand friendship between men."
"Really?"
"Hey put that aside. Your body will disappear soon and there's a small crystal inside you that will fall out..."
Then, Eiji's next words surprised Hijiri. "Want me to help you? I seem to be able to do something with your current condition. Not only that, it's not impossible for me to actually bring you back to life. Not make you live temporarily but really live with flesh and blood."
"Don't ask for details because we're in a hurry, I can explain later. Now give me a yes or no answer?"
Hijiri felt that if she had a heart, she would be beating fast hearing what Eiji said.
She hesitated and actually wanted to refuse because she didn't really believe in what Eiji said. But at this moment, Eiji's inner voice was heard which made her change her mind.
[There's a change in this plot. In the original work where I wasn't there. After Hijiri was defeated by Arata and the Trinity Seven, her body also became transparent and turned into a crystal. At that time the principal of Royal Liber Academy, Master Liber would take the crystal and carry it away.]
[Master Liber is Hijiri's master. She utilized Hijiri but at the same time also helped her to be able to appear in the world longer. However, it is impossible for that woman to actually revive Hijiri.]
[Not because she didn't want to, but because she was unable to do so. After all, Hijiri was already dead because her body was turned into black particles that were sucked up by the black sun created by Arata's Breakdown Phenomenon in the past.]
[Arata and the other Trinity Seven didn't know. But the Hijiri that they previously saw was actually the remnants of her own existence that she left behind in time and space and happened to be found by Master Liber in the "Ruined Word".]
[Hijiri is pitiful, I actually pity her. However, I don't want to say it directly. So just use Arata as an excuse! I can really solve Hijiri's problem temporarily, but to actually revive her without the rest of her body and soul...]
[Oh I'm afraid that girl will immediately reject my kindness because of her feelings for her own cousin. So get rid of the last method and have the girl make the decision after I help her temporarily.]
It was very long.
The heroines were shocked and all of the Trinity Seven did not expect the Hijiri they saw earlier to be a ghost!
But was it just them or was the last part Eiji said a bit suspicious?
