Chapter 42: The Morning Farce (Part I)

(a)

“Master· Spark!”

"Boom!"

The seven-colored halos overlapped each other and converged into a dazzling white pillar of light, gushing out from the inconspicuous little furnace, instantly submerging Sakiya's location and piercing the wall behind her. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

A low roar echoed in his ears, a dazzling glow whitened his vision, and a violent shockwave spread along the walls throughout the Red Devil Pavilion, waking up the fairy maids who were still sleeping lazy. The figures of the thief and the servant were swallowed up by the billowing smoke and dust that was stirred up when the wall collapsed, and they were no longer visible.

"Whew, that's really ......"

Nalan dusted off the wall ash that fell on his shoulder, turned his head to Alice, who was standing aside in a daze, and said:

"The two of them are really incompatible!"

"Ahh......h

Alice didn't expect to be accosted by this strange man, and she was a little overwhelmed for a while.

"My name is Nalan Twilight, and I'm a vampire, so you probably already know this from Marisa, right?"

"Yes...... I'm Alice, Alice Margot Royd, and I'm a magician. ”

"In my opinion, you're a veteran, aren't you?" Nalan glanced at the book in Alice's arms, "Of course, I don't know anything about magic, and if I'm wrong, I'll say I didn't say it." ”

"Just a newbie......

Mistaken for a powerful magician, Alice was a little embarrassed.

"So, next......" Nalan said, "do you want to stay here with me and wait for this farce to finish, or do you want to have a little discussion?"

"So I still have the option of 'not fighting'?" Alice said with a wry smile

"There is no doubt about it. You and I have no grievances, so why fight?"

"That's right, but ......"

After a brief encounter, Alice felt that the vampire was a good talker, and asked the question that she had planned to hold back:

"It's rude to ask, but ...... May I ask if the murderer is really you?"

She met Nalan Twilight's eyes, trying to be as sincere as she could, even though it made her feel a little shy.

"Ha, you're still curious about this, aren't you?" said Nalan Hui as she heard her question.

"No! it's just ...... Slightly, a little bit of a wonder. ”

"The answer is no, but who the real culprit is, I dare say I know it in my heart. ”

This answer was a little unexpected for Alice.

"Can you tell me?" she asked.

"Yes, but what reason do I have to share information with you?

"That's ...... too."

"However, if you are strong enough, I'm afraid I will have to say it. Nalan said with a smile.

"What do you mean......"

"If you win against me, you'll tell you everything. ”

"Hey, isn't this still going to be a fight!" Alice sighed, hanging her head.

She still had a little expectation of this guy, thinking that he was different from others!

"Nonono, it's different!" Nalan shook his finger, "There is no sense of proportion in children's fights, and between you and me, all you need is an innocuous 'exchange'." ”

"Of course, if you don't want to, you can refuse. He added.

"Forget it!"

Alice moved her shoulders and neck, and six mini-puppet girls in maid dresses suddenly appeared behind her, all armed with weapons and ready to go.

"It's strange, did she bring these dolls with her?" Nalan thought as she squinted.

He couldn't remember where he had seen the dolls, or what containers Alice had with her that could hold them, as if the six dolls, big and small, were all conjured up by her.

For a magician, this level of trick is probably a breeze!

"When Marisa comes back, if you see the two of us sitting here drinking tea, it's probably going to be awkward again, and it's annoying to think about it. Alice frowned, "Since you deliberately gave me a reason to fight, then I'm embarrassed not to accept it." ”

Nalan could hear, see, and feel it, and the magician standing in front of him became serious. Just now, she was just a little awkward little girl, but now, she was simply an ice sculpture with thorns.

"Let the horses come, I'll be merciful. He said.

Sakiya and Marisa are speeding through the corridors of the Red Devil Pavilion one after the other.

Surprisingly, it was Sixteen Rooms and Akiya who was supposed to play the role of "hunter" running in front, and it was Marisa Kiriyu who was the "prey" who was chasing after her on a broomstick.

What's even more puzzling is that Marisa is extremely dissatisfied with the current situation.

"Stand still!"

After another bullet misses the target and hits the floor, Marisa can't take it anymore and yells.

Roaring can greatly increase combat effectiveness, at least that's what Marisa and Gorilla think.

Now, she really hopes that Sakuya can stand still and eat that magic cannon raw. In this way, the battle is over.

Unfortunately, it backfired, and Sakiya dodged the "Extreme Spark" that seemed to hit right under her nose, and the series of attacks that followed. She took aim each time before she struck, but each time she missed the target by a fraction of a margin. If it weren't for her dazzle, it would be that this maid was making teleportations with a high frequency, and she was a monster.

After all, the ability to manipulate time, which is a cheating ability, is not what humans should have!

"Damn, it's dangerous!"

As she passed around the corner, several daggers glittering with cold light flew against her cheeks. If she hadn't reacted quickly enough, she would have been lying on the ground by now. Every blow she strikes is unthreatening, but Sakiya's counterattack is always thrilling. If this continues, something will happen sooner or later.

The heart was about to pop out of her chest, but Marisa knew that now was not the time to stop. She must move on and continue to use the barrage to suppress her opponents, and only then will she have a chance to win.

"Firepower is everything", this is her credo. As a normal human, she must have at least one perk that rivals the Yokai in order to fight and win. And her specialty is offense.

Use powerful firepower to suppress the opponent so that the opponent cannot fight back, use attacks to replace defense, and take down the enemy before she is hit, so that her various weaknesses as a human can be ignored.

However, she barely thought about what to do if she failed to hit. No matter how strong the firepower is, as long as it misses the target, it is meaningless. Today's battle will teach her a good lesson.

"Look, Stardust· Reverie!"

Marisa leaps to her feet and stomps on her magic broomstick like a skateboard. The broomstick's tail began to glow, and a large number of pale blue star-shaped clusters of light erupted backwards, accompanied by an almost frantic acceleration.

The witch and her broom became one, turning into a blue light that flashed and created a starry galaxy in the corridor. In this state, it only took her less than half a second to burst into front of Sakiya, intending to knock her directly into the air before Sakiya could react.

It's a gambling attack, and if you win, you win, and if you don't, you lose, and Marisa herself knows that. But at the moment, she has no good choice - the gradually depleting magic power and the ammunition that is about to run out make it impossible for her to continue to maintain high-intensity fire suppression, so she can only take risks.

It's a pity that she didn't realize that this was the moment that Sakuya was waiting for.

Perhaps because of his high mental concentration, at the moment when he was about to collide, Marisa suddenly felt that time had become very slow, and the time that was less than a tenth of a second was suddenly dragged out for a very long time. Thanks to this, she was able to see Sakiya's movements clearly, see how the other party was dashing to avoid her own collision, see the pale afterimage remaining on her retina, and recognize her failure in advance before defeat came.

Whether time slowed down, or Sakiya's movements suddenly became unusually fast, Marisa couldn't tell the difference, and she didn't have time to tell, because between the flowing dodge moves, there was also a dragonfly collision. Sakuya gently pressed the tip of the magic broom down a centimeter with her thumb, a small action that Marisa also saw, but was powerless to stop it.

The slightest mistake is a thousand miles.

The one-centimeter error at ultra-high speed brought an unavoidable disaster to Marisa. The speeding broom deviated from its intended course and rushed headlong to the ground.

"Woo-a-a

In this case, braking is already an impossible task. Marisa, with a star, slammed her head into the cold floor, shattering the solid marble floor.

Now, her eyes are full of stars, some of which she made herself, and some of which she is not.

"Phew, the rat has been caught, but what to do with it?"

Sakiya's voice, as if it came from a very distant place, sounded so unreal.

In comparison, the starry sky in front of you is more realistic.
