Chapter 12: Aisha's Death
"Wellβthere's a hidden staircase under that altar that leads to the ground, and from that staircase you can go down to the ceremonial arena where the ritual takes place." Fried pointed to the altar and simply named the location.
"Huh?" Does Fried have the consciousness to be a killer? Yicheng couldn't help but sigh.
However, in the next second, Fried laughed maniacally in that unique tone pattern: "You're all going to die here anyway!" Oh hahahaha! And that human over there! β
Fried turned towards Naraku and stuck out his tongue, "Keeping company with a demon is the worst thing to do!" It's already on the road to scum! Let me send you to Heaven! Hahahaha. β
"Use your blood to wash away the insult to me!" Fried lifted his sword and swept it according to Naraku, and Yicheng raised his left hand halfway, resisting with an artifact, and the blade rubbed against his hand armor, stirring up bursts of sparks.
Just as Issei was secretly congratulating himself on the small victory, a sharp pain came from his foot, and Fried's pistol was smoking.
"How? The orgasmic pleasure of this 'bullet of light' slashing across your skin, you really can't change it! Seeing that you are protecting this little brother like this, isn't there any adultery? Fried said obscene words, and his hands were not slow at all.
"Rumble." Naraku didn't know if she was scared stupid, she stood upright and didn't resist, it was the kitten who shot, she directly lifted a bench several times bigger than herself and threw it at Fried, forcing Fried to retreat.
"Tsk." Fried cut the bench in two, and the distance between him and Naraku was also widened, "Ahh That's pretty good! What a touching scene of demons protecting humanity - it's strange! β
"I'm so disgusting I want to throw up!" Fried got close again.
"Then it's my next!" This operation,The slightest carelessness will cause a big war.,As a "human" side, Naji's position is quite important.,This is also your own bargaining chip.,Kiba naturally has to be careful.γ
The two of them faced each other with their swords, making a metallic crashing sound.
Fried tried to shoot with the bullets of light, but was dodged by Kiba's fast legs.
The dust was flying, and the battle between the two made Yisei, who was sitting on the ground, dizzy.
"It turns out that Kiba is not a false appearance!"
"Knight? That's right, that's great! It makes me want to kill you for real! β
"Then I'll show some real skills a little bit!"
In an instant, Kiba's sword was covered in darkness, or strictly speaking, darkness became Kiba's sword.
The black gas spread all the way to Fred's sword of light, eroding the light.
"This ...... This is! Fred looked surprised.
"The Sword of Darkness that Devours Light, the Sword of Light (HolyEraser)!"
"Yes...... Damn it! β
"Huh!" The kitten did not miss this perfect opportunity to lose his mind, and threw things within his reach in a chain.
Naraku half-squinted, watching Kiba and Kitten's movements, trapped in the center of the battlefield, but without a trace of panic.
"Is that what Knight and Rook are all about? Or ......"
βBoostοΌοΌβ A voice came from Issei's arm.
"Huh?" Naraku retracted her attention, "Don't worry. β
Suppressing Yicheng, who was going to be promoted, Naraku said slowly: "You still have to reserve your strength, even if you are upgraded, it is difficult to have the combat effectiveness of the two of them, so I will hand it over to them first, we have precious time, and we don't have the effort to waste it with this idiot." β
"But ......"
"Nothing! Until you recover, it will only get in the way, and you have to trust your companions. β
"Yes!" Ichisei obeyed Naraku's words, treated the wound slightly, stood up under Naraku's tug, and ran with Naraku to the stairs under the altar, regardless of the dust on his body.
"Stop!" Fried, noticing Naraku and Issei movements, turned the muzzle of the pistol at the two, and the bullets shot out silently.
"Oops!"
"Big problem!"
Issei and Naraku were facing away from Fried, and Kiba and Kitten pounced on them with their combined footpower, but they couldn't catch up - the bullet was about to penetrate their bodies.
"Hah!" Naraku sighed helplessly, "Yicheng, you say, why do you know that you won't die if you don't die, and some people still want to die?" β
"What?" Ichisei hadn't reacted yet.
Slightly re-slapped the back of the next Makoto, and Issei couldn't close the momentum and took two or three steps forward, just one in front and one behind and Naraku staggered.
"Where did you come from, go back."
The bullet was swallowed up by a small crack, and then flew out at a faster speed, rushing towards Fred, and directly bursting the gun in his right hand, seeing this, Kiba and Kitten couldn't help but stop, and Fred opened his mouth even more.
"Damn! Is it another 'extraordinary person'? Fred jumped back and exclaimed, "Just a **** human!" β
"Have you forgotten yourself by scolding humans like this?"
"I'm different from you! I'm a genius! Fred yelled.
"In my opinion, you're on the same level as the stupid...... Yes! No, stupid people at least have self-knowledge and will not find their own death. Naraku stretched out his left hand and swiped lightly, and a crack instantly appeared above Fred's head, and several huge chairs, tables, and other objects fell towards him.
"Wow!!" Fred yelled, quickly jumped off the spot, then adjusted his state and pulled out a round object and smashed it on the floor.
The intense light stung the eyes of those present, making it impossible for others to see him.
Flashbangs.
Good judgment, I felt that so many people had no chance of winning and decisively chose to retreat, and I had quite a lot of combat experience.
"Hey! That bastard human and miscellaneous demon! I'm so discouraged, I'm going to kill you guys next time! Absolutely! Then goodbye. Fred's voice came from nowhere, followed by the sound of scurrying footsteps that faded away, and he thought he had run some distance.
"Well, it doesn't matter if the little character escapes, it's still important to get down to business." Naraku didn't look at Fred, who had already walked away, and pulled Issei towards the entrance of the tunnel.
"By the way, what about the ministers?" Yicheng also woke up like in a dream, "It stands to reason that it's too slow, right?" β
The plan was agreed upon by Naraku and the minister, and Issei basically just knew what he was going to do.
"It's also ......," Kiba was also surprised, but still said, "I believe the minister and Zhu Nai." β
The kitten nodded and looked back at the church door with a little concern.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Underground of the Templar.
"Alas...... It seems that it is still a step too late. The basement door opened automatically, and the ceremony behind the door caught the eyes of the four.
The first to speak was Naraku, who had already seen the end of the ceremony.
"Welcome, demons, uh...... And a human? "Moist black hair, slender figure, dressed in black tights, with a pair of black wings on top of the beautiful girl standing in the depths of the room to speak to the four of them, when she saw Naraku, Linari was also stunned for a moment, I didn't expect that humans would have the courage to go deep into this place.
Sister Aisha, who had been on a one-sided relationship, was crucified beside Linali and screamed in pain.
The four of them rushed forward, only to be surrounded by outliers from the crowd.
"Fuck off." Issei shouted.
"Get out of the way!" "Damn the devil, go die!" β¦β¦
"Please don't touch me." The kitten threw out a priest.
"Then I'm not welcome to open up......" Kiba's sword devoured the priest's light to the fullest, and in the blink of an eye, the other side lost the will to fight.
"Is it too late?"
Linali held a ball of light and looked at the four proudly, like ants.
This kind of gaze is very uncomfortable.
I saw her raise her hands and shout excitedly.
"This is it! That's the power I've always wanted! SacredGear! As long as I have this, I can get love! β
Holding the ball of light tightly, the dazzling light enveloped the entire ceremony field.
Soon, a fallen angel with a green glow all over his body came out of it.
"I've finally arrived, this supreme power!" Linari was crazy and laughed out loud.
"Ha~~! Idiot. Naraku let out a sigh of helplessness and looked at Linari with an idiot-like gaze.
"That's what you want?" Ignoring the other three who went to rescue Aisha, Naraku was only targeting Linari alone.
Probably with the victory in hand, Linali said "benevolently": "Of course, if I can become a fallen angel who heals fallen angels, my status will also rise, and I will be able to get the attention of Lord Asachel!" β
"Asahir?" Naraku's eyelids twitched slightly, as if she was holding back something.
"Shut up, impudent! How can a mere human be worthy of calling Asacher's name! β
"That's right......" Naraku pinched her temples and shook her head like she had a headache, "Then I'm not interested in you." β
"It's just an ant, who do you think you are?" Perhaps stimulated by Naraku's tone, Linari threw a spear of light at Naraku.
"Phew!" As soon as Naraku wanted to raise his hand, the light gun was knocked away by Kiba.
"Naraku-san, this place is not good for us, let's hurry up and let's help you clear the way!" Kiba faithfully implements the strategic approach.
"Don't worry, one by one, I'll send you all together." Linari smiled like a villain boss, and a light gun appeared in her hand again.
"Okay." No nonsense, Naraku waved his hand, and jumped directly to the entrance of the basement with a spatial movement with Issei, who was holding Aisha in the way of a princess hug.
Although you can jump out directly, after all, he said that he can only jump within the line of sight or where there are coordinates, so he still needs to lie to himself.
After coming to this world, Naraku didn't plan to use too much strength, of course, if he met a traverser, he had to except, in addition to that, it was almost the same as choosing the same amount of power as the opponent's strength, and he felt that he hadn't used his brain for a long time, since he left the world of [Sword Language], in order not to let his brain rust completely, or turn into a mess, he chose the way he lived when he was still [Seven Truths].
"Kiba! Kitten, you must call me Issei when you go back! That's it! We're partners! Don't die! Near the entrance, Issei looked back and shouted.
Catching a glimpse of the smiles of Kitten and Kiba, Naraku nodded as if she understood something, jumped again with Ichisei and disappeared into this underground space.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"We're friends! Aisha, hold on! Aisha lay flat on the temple bench, and Issei grabbed her hand and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Issei once again felt his powerlessness and incompetence.
Issei doesn't want to admit it, but the girl will die soon.
Shouting out the impossible in his mouth, Issei's heart is close to collapse.
And the one who watched from the wall on the side was Naraku.
Naraku stood silently, staring at the two of them as they staged the life-and-death parting scene, occasionally looking at the time displayed on the magic guide.
For Naraku - people die, but none of this matters.
He doesn't have anyone he wants to protect, he doesn't have anyone close to him, all he wants is food, sleep, and fighting, and that's what he has at the moment, oh, except for Naye who are not in this world, they already have a certain weight for Naraku.
"It's time." Naraku said secretly.
ββ¦β¦ Thank you ......."
"Aisha!!" With a heart-rending cry, Issei began to pray to the heavens, "O God! Don't take this girl away, okay? She didn't do anything wrong at all! β
"Oops! I heard you right! Is the devil repenting to God? β
It seems that Linari still broke through the defense line of Kitten and Kiba, is this artifact that useful? Naraku stared at Linari's hand.
Sensing Naraku's gaze, Linari reached out to her wound.
"This is the Knight who cut it on the way here, you see, no matter what kind of injury it is, it can be recovered."
"It seems so."
Naraku said lightly, sat on the bench, shook her feet gently, and replied very leisurely, but in Linari's eyes, Naraku's behavior is probably the kind of despair of giving up and giving up, and Linari enjoys this despair very much.
Issei was a different kind of person, and he glared at Linari vigorously, "Why! What fallen angels, what gods, what demons...... These things shouldn't have anything to do with her at all! β
"No, of course it does, she's the lucky one to be chosen by the artifact, you don't know what a great gift her artifact is for us."
"The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty?" Naraku said calmly, "If you want to hold the treasure, if you don't have the power to protect the treasure, you will only find yourself killed." β
"This little brother has seen it very thoroughly, if it weren't for your affair with the devil, I would have wanted to take you in."
"Someone just said the same thing to me today, and I refused."
"That's a shame." It's probably a real pity, Linali sighed.
"In this case, Issei and I are going to die here?"
"You are a human being, and there is still the possibility of being resurrected by demons, so you must be 'destroyed' properly." Linari smiled like a flower, but her words were full of blood.
"Oh...... That's unlucky. Naraku looked up to the sky, and I don't know who he was talking to.
Issei trembled.
It's not fear, it's anger.
Issei has no way to forgive himself.
If he is strong enough, he will be able to protect Aisha, and Naraku will not die in vain with him, it is all his own fault, he will go to Naraku to discuss, and Naraku will take the initiative to come over to help, but now, ......
"And can I say something to my best friend before I die?"
"Everyone has the right to a deathbed declaration." Linari didn't worry about how big a wave Naraku could make, just a human being, especially when she had already obtained the artifact "The Smile of the Virgin", she easily let Naraku go.
"Hi, Issei!" Naraku smiled cheerfully.
"Naraku...... I...... I...... Damn it! Issei pounded the floor.
Helplessness, anger, self-loathing......
The negative feelings of the "heart" are the nourishment for strength.
Yicheng has touched the edge, but has not touched the substance.
Naraku is a Saiyan, and the Saiyan's combat power will increase greatly when he is extremely angry, and even the transformation of the Super Saiyan is also generated because of extreme anger, of course, the premise is that the Saiyan's combat power must reach a certain level.
Therefore, he can gain insight into the change in Yicheng's mentality now.
So, Naraku said to Issei like a demon in a tone that tempted a little lamb.
"Want power?"
