"Senior......!?"

Yukina muttered blankly. The ancient city, which was supposed to be asleep because of a cold, actually scattered a large amount of magic power, and Yukina was very puzzled by this.

On the other side, the ancient city seemed to be irritable and lifted its sleeping front hair,

“…… Really, what are you messing around on the roofs of other people's houses, you guys. ”

The tone of the ancient city makes people feel that something is cold.

Stared at by the burning red pupils, Sniwalda stepped back with the two dolls.

It's to protect the master from the sudden attack of the Fourth True Ancestor.

"Senior, why are you ...... here!?"

Spinning the silver spear, Yukina, who had regrouped, asked the ancient city.

The ancient city glared at Yukina unpleasantly.

"Of course I'm worried about Yukina! A man came out of the house without permission! ”

"But, but, what about the body—"

"Body? No problem at all...... It's like being reborn. ”

The ancient city laughed exaggeratedly. As if to confirm his statement, the golden glow of the ancient city increased.

“…… Alas? ”

Looking at the ancient city like this, Yukina seemed a little uneasy when she looked at him.

Indeed, the current ancient city does not have the impression of being weakened before losing consciousness. The face is not so bad either.

Even so, the old city is not the same as usual.

It even gives the feeling of being completely in control of one's own power and being happy with it.

"Can you not make a move, Fourth True Ancestor. We're just here to confirm Astarout's mana supply. It's none of your business anymore. If you get in the way, we'll take revenge on you by tearing the Sword Witch Girl over there into pieces. ”

Throwing away the empty bottle, the puppeteer said. Although he confronted the vampire who was called the strongest in the world, his shrunken appearance did not change at all. Although it was not possible to destroy the immortal True Ancestor, there were many ways to powerless it, and the puppeteer cast a contemptuous look at the ancient city.

"That's what I'm going to say, Puppet Dead House!"

“…… You say I...... Dead house? ”

The puppeteer gave a twisted expression of disgust. The self-proclaimed artist was compared to a layman collector, which should be an unforgivable insult to him.

But the ancient city looked back at the puppeteer's murderous eyes and shook his head defiantly.

"I don't want to comment on other people's tastes, but it's disgusting that you make life-size figures! What an unpleasant thing! Also, are those guys' clothes your interest! It's too sexy, isn't it? ”

"How dare you say that about my art! Don't put me in the same category as those ordinary people! ”

The puppeteer shouted in anger.

Trying to find out the source of Astarut's mana, his goal has been achieved. There is no need for the puppeteer to risk fighting the ancient city them. But his mind now loses its cool judgment. I'm afraid that's the purpose of the ancient city. In order to prevent the puppeteer from escaping, he deliberately made him angry with himself.

This calm fighting style is definitely not an ancient city, and Yukina is becoming more and more suspicious.

No, in a sense, this may be his original character.

If it was an ancient city when I was in the basketball club in middle school, I should be used to provoking opponents in games.

That is, the ancient city returns to the belligerent character of that time. It's just releasing the true face that is usually hidden.

"Kill them, Svanilda! No matter how many times! ”

"Orders are promised—"

Following the puppeteer's orders, Sniwalda begins the battle again.

The three dolls spread out and surrounded the old city and Yukina.

They made a clockwork sound, and their bodies began to deform.

The chest was moved to the left and right, and the clean-cut rotary machine gun appeared there.

A metal needle that is about 10 centimeters long as a machine gun bullet. This is a metal piledriver for vampires - an inhumane weapon of destruction that has been banned for decades.

"Senior, be careful. They are—"

"Ahh Although it is very similar to Astarut, it can't feel the breath of life, it's just a puppet! ”

The ancient city grinds molars.

"Then, there is no need for mercy! Don't blame me! ”

After saying this, the ancient city began to act. With the exaggerated jumping power and agility of a vampire, he approached the arms of the puppet as it prepared to fire the machine cannon.

A simple punch from the ancient city broke the barrel of the machine gun. The doll couldn't resist the impact and was blown off the roof rail.

Another puppet is trying to shoot a metal needle from the back of the ancient city. Even if he will implicate his partner, he wants to kill the ancient city.

But the ancient city waved his right hand wrapped around the lightning, and the lightning intercepted the metal needles flying at a speed of hundreds of rounds per minute.

The doll was also swept up in the electric shock, and she was scorched all over.

"What's ......?!"

Looking at the one-sided ravaging of the puppet-filled ancient city, Yukina was speechless.

The ancient city easily solved the battle puppet that forced Yukina (cai) to the end of the road.

Even with Svanilda's calculus skills, he couldn't capture the movements of the ancient city. The current ancient city is too strong no matter what.

"Hercelia, forty-seven percent damaged. Sada, the rate of injury is unknown. Try to start again. Fail. ”

Although Svanilda continued to fight, the results were already clear.

The thread on her right hand snapped and snapped.

The metal needles were knocked down by lightning emitted by the ancient city, and the blades swung by the dolls were shattered by the power of the vampires.

The ancient city brutally trampled on the fallen and immobile dolls.

"Completely controlling the power of the Fourth True Ancestor...... That's the senior's ...... Serious look!? ”

In the meantime, Yukina stood there alone.

For the first time, I felt horror from the ancient city. The ancient city now has complete control over the power of the vampires. Not only that, but it seems to have removed the ferocious nature of the demons.

"Cut ......"

"There was serious damage to the department. The preparatory circuit is activated. Self-sabotage mode. ”

Looking at the anxiously smacking puppeteer, Snewalda reported lightly.

Yukina's face stiffened when she sensed their intentions.

"Senior!"

"Do you want to blow yourself up!"

The ancient city also understood the situation. The puppets that were about to break jumped with the last of their strength. Attack Yukina and the ancient city from overhead.

I want to blow myself up just like that.

But the ancient city reacted faster than they did.

The ancient city increased the density of the magic release of the right hand, and the magic power turned into a huge beast posture. It's a condensed magic that's so big that it's self-aware. It is summoned by vampires from their own blood, summoned beasts from other worlds, the Beast

"Come, Lion's Golden ――――――"

Materialized by the magic of the ancient city is the always huge thunder lion. With a total length of more than ten meters, it was really galloping at the speed of purple electricity, sweeping through the two dolls. With a single blow, the Thunder Lion burned the dolls to ashes in an instant, leaving not even the wreckage left.

The aftermath of the attack was around it. The entire land of the artificial island shook violently as if it were shaking.

The power of the Fourth True Ancestor is used to deal with mere mechanical dolls, which is too trivial.

Yukina uses the silver spear to ward off the scorching shockwave.

The spear that can negate mana, the Snow Wolf, is the only weapon that can fight against the True Ancestor.

But Yukina wasn't the only one caught up in the attack of the ancient city.

"Svanilda!"

The puppeteer shouted. The pure white-haired idol is trying to protect the mechanical puppet standing there like him, and fierce sparks are constantly emitting from his body. The machinery in her body was given a full body bath by lightning.

Damn!

The puppeteer hugged Svanilda tightly and moaned as if she was vomiting.

After that, a flame pattern appeared around him. The liquor sprinkled at his feet was used as a catalyst to create a magic circle.

He just hugged Svanilda's body and disappeared.

If you are not very proficient, you will not be able to control this spatial transfer technique.

Unlike the decadent appearance, the puppeteer is actually quite a high-ranking magician. Even if Yukina has psychic vision, she can't track them.

"Did you run away...... But if you suffer so much, you shouldn't dare to come again! ”

The ancient city glanced at the roof where the puppeteer was still there, and said cleanly.

Even with all the magic power around, he still didn't look like he was reflecting on it at all.

Yukina looked at such an irresponsible ancient city, and her expression was like she was about to cry.

"It's too much, senior! Even if it can be controlled, it's a good thing, but in this kind of residential area, the Fourth True Ancestor's Dependent Beast is actually used! If something goes wrong, the whole city might evaporate! ”

Yukina was really angry, because the ancient city shrugged his shoulders like it wasn't his business.

Yukina is the watchman of the ancient city. If the ancient city becomes an existence that will endanger humanity, it will have to be erased. Of course, Yukina didn't want to be like that, but if the ancient city was to indulge in the power of the Fourth True Ancestor like this and continue to mess around as he wanted, then he would have to be stopped. Because the power of the world's strongest vampire is too dangerous.

But the ancient city faced Yukina approaching, and fooled around casually.

"Because I've been able to control it well, it doesn't matter. As long as Yukina is okay. ”

"Huh? That...... I'm really grateful that the seniors came to help me...... Wrong! ”

Yukina instinctively thanked the ancient city for his words. But halfway through, he angrily corrected it.

The ancient city aimed at such a moment, and roughly grabbed her hand and pulled Yukina over]

"But that's right. Anyway, if you want to be grateful, let me see your attitude of gratitude. ”

"Attitude, attitude is ......!?"

"yes. For example, something like this—"

Being held hard by the ancient city, Yukina stopped breathing for a moment.

Although she quickly tried to resist, Yukina as a human couldn't compete with the strength of a vampire.

"No, no, senior! I'm a supervisor of seniors, and I'm going to be seen in this kind of place! ”

Yukina screamed weakly. Although he was attracted by the unusually positive nature of the ancient city, Yukina was distressed by his nature.

While she was wrestling with this, the weight of the ancient city pressing on her increased, as if she was about to push Yukina to the ground. (Markne)
