"Wow!"

The lights in the room suddenly come on, and the gloomy atmosphere is swept away, only to Marisa's surprise even more. It seems that she is still a little self-conscious of being a thief.

Looking back, the door to the room had not yet been closed, and it was empty.

With some hunch, she looked up, and then saw a girl with pale yellow hair in a dress floating in the air.

On her back were a pair of wings that shone with seven colors, and the crystalline objects of various colors were attached to her wings in a way that was unimaginable to humans, monsters, ghosts, or any other creature.

Although the girl holding a teddy bear in her arms still feels a little childlike, the empty expression on her face makes people feel chills down her spine.

“…… Who are you? ”

The voice, which has no trace of emotion like the expression, is really from this girl who suddenly appeared.

"Don't, don't scare me!"

Marisa Misty Rain sues first, well, this level of behavior is completely justified for her.

But now that the object has been determined, there is nothing to be afraid of.

"My name is Marisa Kiriyu, and I'm an explorer!"

The girl slowly fell in mid-air, and didn't seem to care so much about why she was in her own home.

"You're human?"

Once on the ground, she slowly walked up to Marisa, gazing at her face at an almost misleading distance.

"It's the first time I've seen a human outside of Sakiya."

It's not hard to hear from her tone that this is the truth, that is, she hasn't seen a human other than the one named Sakiya when she's grown up?

That's a rarity for a youkai.

"My name is Flandrew, and I've been locked up here."

"Oh......"

In the face of the mischievous smile on her face. Marisa, however, had a bad feeling of premonition. I didn't know how to answer her for a while.

Flandrew then looked back without hesitation. Just when Marisa thought she was going to leave, she suddenly turned around again and raised her right hand.

At the same time, a purple magic array bloomed behind her, barely allowing for reaction, and several missiles flew out of it and shot at her.

"Wow!"

Marisa jumped to the side with all her might, dodging the sudden attack at close range just as she was in the nick of time. It's a pity that the image of lying on the ground at this time is not very good-looking.

"Aha. Dodge, dodge! ”

At this time, Flandoro clapped her hands happily, and her face was like the innocent smile of a child when she saw a new toy, and she could not imagine that she was the prisoner who had just attacked her.

"It's so sudden! Don't you know that things have to come step by step! ”

In the face of her questioning, Flandrew was unmoved, and talked to herself.

"I'm so bored all the time, there's always no one to play with me, and my toys break down all at once."

Although she looked like a lonely child at this time, the teddy bear in her arms was twisted by her hug. Finally, with a "bang", the whole head burst open. After revealing the white cotton contents, this child is not cute at all!

"Me! To play with Marisa! ”

"Okay, I'll be your opponent!"

Although the other party looks like a child, age and appearance are not directly proportional to the monster.

It's just that since she was beaten, it's not her style to fight back!

It's not right that she's sneaking into someone else's house, but that's not important!

"Ahaha...... Aha...... Aha......"

In the midst of Flandrew's somewhat crazy laughter, Marisa suddenly felt a flower in front of her, and at some point, Flandrew's body actually appeared apparition.

The illusory figure kept appearing, and gradually became solid. In the end, you can even hear the laughter from these apparitions, as if they were all real!

She looked at the four identical Flandrews in front of her in distress, and couldn't help but secretly worry: I really didn't expect it to be such a troublesome ability from the beginning, it seems that she still underestimated the monsters in this strange castle......

"Gensokyo is the land of my vows......"

At the same time, in the main hall of this castle, several figures are gathering here.

"The fate of mankind, youkai, and you is in my hands. Bow down to my power to rule the night! ”

In the dimly lit hall, only the dim crimson light of a dark red light in the hands of a young girl sitting on the throne could be seen. And that light cluster seems to be composed of countless tiny silk threads, which are the thin threads that represent "fate".

Her pupils radiated a red light, and her immature face revealed an expression of absolute majesty, as if everything in the world was under control.

The next moment, in Gensokyo, a blood-red cloud flew out from the castle, covering a large area of the sky in just a moment, and it was still spreading outward. There is a tendency to engulf the entire sky.

"Wow, scoop!"

Shotimaru Fumi, who was originally waiting outside, also showed an expression worthy of the trip, and frantically took pictures of the red mist sky with this mysterious castle as the background.

At the same time, the people or youkai all over Gensokyo looked at the sky where the mutation was launched, and the newcomers to Gensokyo finally made a move - this is what they thought at this time, but it was forbidden to do so.

Anyway, that person will always solve it, right?

"Ahaha, what's the point of just running away, Marisa!"

The four Flandoros, who were in a one-sided pursuit battle with Marisa in the castle, were bombarding Marisa indiscriminately at this time.

"Damn, don't ......"

Overwhelmed by the weight of her escape, Marisa turns the direction of the broom and is about to turn back and launch a counterattack, but her movements suddenly stop.

"Ahh

After her strange reaction, Flandoro also noticed that Le was abnormal.

At some point, they had already flown into the library, and the roof was covered by a hollowed-out glass ceiling, and the blue sky that could be seen directly there was now gradually surrounded and covered by a cloud of crimson mist.

"What's the matter, you guys?"

Marisa watched the scene, a hint of anger on her face.

At this level, the phenomenon that has begun to affect the degree of the sky is no longer a "phenomenon", but a "mutation"!

That's why it's said that the youkai who only cause trouble to others is the most annoying!

"That's ...... What the? ”

It's just that Flandoro looked at the sky suspiciously as if she didn't know what was going on, and the other three clones had also returned to their main bodies, obviously no longer had the will to fight.

"That red mist or clouds or something, no matter how you look at it, it's all floating out of this hall!"

In the face of her accusations, Flandoro showed a similar attitude of anger for the first time.

"I don't know! Because my sister always excludes me! ”

“…… Sister-sama? ”

Marisa looked at her in surprise.

Originally, the first thing she encountered when she infiltrated was Flandrew, and she thought she was the owner of this pavilion, but listening to her, there were other people in it, and the person she called "Sister-sama" was probably the real owner of this place?

In that case, was this strange red mist also released by that person?

"Yikes!"

Suddenly, a strong current of water rose from below, and the tornado-like current enveloped Flandorow in mid-air, eventually trapping her in a water balloon and floating in mid-air.

Marisa watched in shock at this sudden situation, completely unclear why Flandorow was suddenly attacked, and who was the attacker?

"I wonder why it's so noisy, it turns out that there are rats coming in."

In the messy library, out of the back of the bookshelf came a girl who looked like an ordinary human, but the light of magic still flashing in her hand also revealed her identity, the magician.

"Patsy!?"

Trapped in the water balloon, Flandrew looked at the visitor in surprise, wondering why she was being attacked by her, and what was going on outside? (To be continued.) )
