CHAPTER 68 – EVIL DOES NOT FLOURISH
「Funnuuuuuuu!!」
The lizard roars and flung its tail . It’s a roar that’s unimaginable from the bewitching beauty a moment ago .
I dodged to the side . The tail hits the ground where I standing before .
The ground breaks, the building shakes .
With that power, normal people wouldn’t be unscathed from that .
「Here, here, here!」
*Dogoーn!* *Dogoーn!* , it echoes, consecutive attacks from the tail flew .
I tried to take it .
I received the tail that was flung from above by crossing the two Demon Swords .
Heavy, it felt .
*Mishi*, the ground I’m standing on cracks .
「Quite strong . It’s just like how you look huh」
「Kukuku, you can’t do anything even if you knew that」
「I only need to dodge . It’s nothing if it doesn’t hit」
I said that and dodged the tail . The sure-kill attack of the tail continuously hits the ground .
「Tch, how agile . Then, how about this」
Aerine said that, pulled out her own scales, and scattered them .
The scales transformed mid-air, and changed into a small Aerine .
Small lizard appeared in bulk .
They grabbed my feet, and literally stop me on my feet .
「Your feet stopped, now die!」
「Careful!」
I heard Aura’s scream from behind .
『It’s not that dangerous as she says so』
『Un, it’s Otou-san after all』
I heard the mother and daughter’s conversation inside my head . They talked as if there were no danger at all .
As they said, there’s nothing dangerous, there’s no way there would be .
The tail that was flung downーーI received it this time using Hikari .
I stopped it using the shorter Demon Sword .
「What!」
Aerine getting surprised .
「Haaa!!」
A focused slash . I swung Eleanor .
「Guaaaaa!!」
The scream roars . It was a scream that even shakes the building .
Aerine’s tail was cut off from the middle .
Squirming tail that was cut off; a dark aura coming out from the wound .
Aerine hugs her tail, and agonizes .
「R-Ridiculous . For a blade to get through my tough skin」
「Ahh, is your toughness something you’re proud of? I did a bad thing then」
While saying that, I charged, this time, I slashed using Hikari .
The tail that was cut, another attack to cut off rings .
The tail that was like a sliced ham flings in the air, and falls to the ground .
「Guo, uoooooo………」
The quality of the scream changed .
The parts coming from pain increased, and it didn’t shake the building anymore .
I stabbed the tail that fell down with Eleanor, threw it into the air, and cut it into pieces .
The meat chunks are scattered .
「You bastarddd」
A voice of hatred . With blood-shot eyes full of hatred, Aerine glares at me .
「Is that all you have?」
「Ku!」
Aerine jumped, jumping back .
The summoned mini lizard that changed from scales came in between us .
They were protecting Aerine .
I cut them off .
One kill, one slash . I cut off all of them, and went towards Aerine .
I chased her down . Aerine lost all the might she had in the start .
Hatred was only there . She looked at me with eyes filled with a hundred percent pure hatred .
『Don’t play around, hurry up and take her last breath』
Eleanor scolded me . I guess so .
She’s annoying so I’m punishing her, but I probably should kill her now .
I thought of that, and readied Eleanor .
「Ku, kukukukuku」
Aerine suddenly started laughing .
It was sudden; with an expression full of confidence .
「What are you laughing at」
「Kukuku」
Aerine didn’t answer; *Pachin*, she snapped her fingers .
A monster eyeball that has wings of a bat appeared .
As if it was a projector, the monster’s eyes released light, and showed a video .
What was being shown was a bedroom from somewhere, a middle-aged woman was sleeping on the top of a splendid bed .
Around her, she was being surrounded by mini lizards .
Sounds could also be heard, the mini lizards raised monstrous voices .
「What is that」
「Okaa-sama!」
I heard Aura’s scream .
「Okaa-sama? Is that person, your mother」
「Un! Okaa-sama, what are going to do to Okaa-sama?」
「That depends on your attitude」
「A hostage huh」
「I knew that Aura was connected to you, you know, I made planned it from the beginning」
「……how despicable」
I whispered, and hesitated .
It’s easy to kill her just like this .
For me who had fought against the Red Dragon Olivia, this thing’s strength is like an insect’s .
It’s only a hundredth of Olivia .
That’s why it’s easy to kill her, but if I do that, it’s easy to imagine what would happen to Aura’s mother .
She’s going to be killed for sure .
『What would you do?』
『Otou-san……』
I wonder . Aura’s mother, the place she is in right now, I can’t warp there since I had not been there .
A hostage……it’s annoying, but it’s effective .
It can’t be helped, huh .
But, when I was thinking of that .
【Kakeru!】
I heard a voice from the eyeball monster .
It’s a voice that I’m familiar with, it’s my woman’s voice .
Soon after, Melissa appeared beside Aura’s mother .
「Melissa?! Why are you there」
I asked, but a reply that’s a little bit off came back .
【If you can hear me, don’t worry! I’m here after all】
It looks like it isn’t a video call, but is only being sent on one side .
But, I understood the situation .
And, there are no more worries .
I readied the Demon Sword, clad the usual dark aura, and went towards Aerine .
「What are you going to do?」
Aura got surprised .
「You bastard, do you not care about the hostage?」
「Do what you want」
I answered promptly . Aura and Aerine got surprised .
「A bluff, huh……alright, look at this and regret」
*Pachin*, Aerine snapped her finger .
Across the screen, the lizards attacked Aura’s mother .
「Okaa-sama!」
Aura raised her scream . But, I didn’t move .
Blood splashes out from Aura’s motherーーnot her, but splashes out from Melissa’s body that was beside her .
Immortal Saint Melissa, her powers are to receive damage behalf someone, and immortality .
As long as she’s there, Aura’s mother would not die . She wouldn’t even get injured .
Blood spurts out of Melissa . Her appearance was suitable for the name of a saint, it feels very dignified .
『Make it up to her later』
Eleanor said . Of course, I’m planning to do that .
「W-What does this mean?」
Aerine panicked .
I took a step forward; Aerine flinched .
「Well, well, is that your last card?」
「Ku……!」
「Is there anything left?」
I said, and narrowed my eyes .
「U-Uwaaaaa!!」
Aerine turned around and runs .
Along the way, she kicked off the king that couldn’t understand the situation, and ran .
Of course, I won’t let her get away .
Inside the room, I warped in front of her .
「What!」
「Die already」
「Damn it!!!!」
Getting desperate, Aerine attacked .
A slash using Eleanor .
I cut off Aerine’s head .
Shaking her huge body, Aerine collapsed .
Here, and also across the video . The mini lizards returned to scales one next to the other .
Melissa was very dignified even being soaked in blood . Aura’s mother was completely unscathed .
In this side, Aerine’s corpse collapsed, Aura got relieved, and the king started trembling .
“For the meantime, everything’s clear”, I thought .
