9. Interception

(Don't ask me what's going on with the European and American wind on the cover, I don't know, I'll ask tomorrow.) οΌ‰

Long-distance running is not Samael's forte, and if she can, she prefers to stay with Alicia and simply follow the command and fight.

But that big-breasted woman, after all, is not her own master, her own identity, just Mia's appointment to assist her reinforcements. So when Mia is in danger, the matter of Alicia's woman is put aside, and the human dispute is still solved by the human race.

Samael ran with all his might, not only because of the doubts and worries in his heart, but more importantly, because of something almost like a sixth sense. Mia doesn't know magic, well, almost not at all, so she doesn't talk about any remote contact with herself, but that doesn't prevent her from being aware of the danger of her situation.

Moreover, I always feel that from a distant place, there are many ominous smells, and the sky is also dark and terrible, and it seems that there is no chance of the rising sun at all.

Hopefully, it's just an illusion, but it seems that two annoying guys have appeared in the distance.

Then, it must not be an illusion.

"Whoa...... Isn't this Samael, why are you here?"

"Ah, this must be ......"

"Shut up!

Samael directly stopped Raviel and Helter's tirade that was about to begin, "I'll give you a word, what's wrong with Mia!"

"Goo......

"Ahh This must be love, so that we can meet you Samael on the way here, and then tell you that there is a great disturbance in the empire, and the master cannot leave for the time being because he has to assist the princess, but at night there seem to be many enemies against the master, so the master sent us to you, but we were lucky to meet you halfway. ”

β€œ......”

"Goo...... Call...... I was so tired that I almost suffocated to death. Lavielle gasped.

"Ah, Raviel, you must be ...... to say such a long word"

"Okay, don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and keep up. ”

Raviel's "one sentence" does make things a lot clearer, and the summary is that Mia is in danger.

After composing himself, Samael hastened in the direction of the Empire.

Although the rapid march was physically draining, as the distance gradually shortened, Samael did feel that something was wrong, and in this dark night sky, the red dots in the distance appeared to shine unusually brightly. It looks like it should be a fire, after all. Today is not a festival day.

"Hey, you two, why is the Empire on fire. ”

Samael turned his head at the surprise. The two "reciters" who were very fast asked, "Also, what kind of enemy can you see?"

"Ah, this must be ......"

"It's vampires and skeletons. ”

Seeing that Samael's expression was wrong, Haitel hurriedly blocked his companion's dead mouth, "We don't know the rest. ”

Unexpected enemies, it stands to reason that these two species should not appear at the same time. After all, vampires are something that only Verard can develop. On the other hand, if Verard is playing games in the city, then there is such a thing as a skeleton. It must be......

"Isn't that guy supposed to be sleeping?"

Samael muttered, speeding up the flapping of the black wings on his back, however, it seemed that on this night, it was not just the empire that was not so peaceful.

Even, here's the ......

【Whoosh】

An arrow with no head. However, this attack is categorically not for assassination, but for the sake of making oneself stop.

The purpose is clear. It was in the hurry that Mia was really in danger.

"Who is it?"

Samael shouted at the ground below, but in the darkness of the night, nothing could be seen except that the dark shadow was moving.

If you use a bow and arrow as a weapon, then you can't force it out like this, otherwise you will be used as a target from the rear to shoot through the heart, and the arrow feather just now still has a lot of weight.

Well, you guy, you win, you managed to stop yourself.

His gaze gradually adjusted to his surroundings, which also allowed Samael to see the other party's ...... a little more clearly Body shape.

That's right, this fan-like guy who refuses to show her face is as expected, covering all her features with all kinds of objects. If there's one thing that catches the eye, it's the eyes.

didn't have a look of death, and she didn't seem to have the confidence to be able to defeat herself, was she just trying to hold herself back?

"You two, go back and tell SΓΉmia first, and I'll be right there. ”

There was only one person on the other side, and Raviel and Hetel could only drag their feet if they stayed here, and after hastily driving them away, Samael had no choice but to prepare for battle.

With his own strength, if the other party only uses a bow and arrow, similar to a scout, it is still very good......

......

What is this? Isn't it a good bow and arrow?

As if losing interest, the mysterious creature tossed aside the bow and arrow she was carrying, and judging by the gesture of her throwing, the exposed arm appeared to be a woman. Then, the guy pulled out the sword at his waist, and did not choose to fight and retreat, nor did he choose to hide, but just so head-on, trying to grapple with himself.

"Interesting. ”

Samael grinned and rushed towards this somewhat unknown woman, this ordinary weapon, ordinary human, also wants to fight with himself?

In other words, you may be able to indulge a little because of your guts, but in this urgent moment, no one can delay their time!

【Bang】

The staggering of weapons, the desperate look in the other's eyes, and then the sharp blade in his hand stabbed into her chest......

It should have been like this, but ......

"For ......"

Why? Why did your weapon break instead? Obviously she was the attacking party, obviously she was two short spears, and it was clear that she was just holding an ordinary sword blade that was weak.

Smiled? Cunning, the smile after the triumph, after this, she also clenched a sharp blade in her other hand at some point.

[Whew]

"......Shh Well done, you guy. ”

That's right, it didn't hit. However, all his momentum has been lost. The only thing that can be done is to have a meaningless competition with this unexpected, difficult mysterious woman.

No, maybe there is another way. If oneself forcibly breaks through with speed and is careful about defense...... Maybe......

Here it comes!

Unexpectedly aggressive, but it did interrupt Samael's momentary thoughts, and in his haste he chose the idea he had just thought.

The spear swept across the woman's chest, and after forcing her back, Samael immediately spread his wings and flew into the dark night sky, after looking back at the other man. Samael accelerated to sprint with a little relief.

Some difficult enemies, if it weren't for their own way of acting, they don't know how long they would have been held back by her. Hurry up to Mia. That woman, a woman who doesn't know how to use magic, but still likes to go to dangerous places, is really worrying.

Samael's form gradually turned into a black dot and melted into the night, even though her back was to the enemy. Didn't notice the silver light flickering on the ground.

"As before...... He's a fool. ”

......

Hasty action, stumbling pace. Lucifer ran through the ruins of the city.

Although she successfully drove back from the cemetery, it did not mean that she had won, because no matter whether it was her feelings or her own feelings, every inch of Lucifer's cells did not tell her that she could overcome that ghost.

How long has it been since you felt the tension of death for the first time in a long time? Lucifer attributed that qiΔ“ to habit, but Yu was telling with his actions that it was not an illusion.

Obviously the woman was just dancing, obviously just dancing...... Forget it, whether she is bored or has let herself go for some other reason, hurry up and investigate the reason in this turmoil first.

Mia is no longer where she used to be, and as for Cecia in the sky, she is still completing her task, so shouldn't she go to Frey first? If it's the little guy, what will be the main ...... Meaning......

Who!?

"Ah, that's a good thing, what a coincidence. ”

The familiar voice shook Lucifer's periosteum, and if it was just a voice, it wouldn't have surprised her so much, because the owner of this voice shouldn't have any more voices at all.

"Sister Lucie, what are you looking for? Are you looking for your new 'master'? Looking at your scars, do you want me to treat you?"

β€œ...... Ashmill?"

Hastily turned around, yes, I saw it clearly, and I didn't admit it at all. The woman leaning against the corner, the flames around her seemed to add more brilliance to her.

The corners of her mouth still had that flirtatious smile, but perhaps at this time, this smile had taken on another meaning.

Why, she shouldn't ......

"Ah, really, probably a moth like me who can't go to heaven or hell, so I can only follow Lilith, I'm not dead, Sister Lucy, do you want to open a bottle of wine to celebrate?"

β€œ......”

"Now, Sister Lucie, where has Lilith gone?" Asmar propped himself up from the wall, "I remember that the one who shouted the most fiercely, saying that he wanted to protect Lilith's pawns, it was you." So...... What about her?"

"Dead. ”

This was not the answer in Lucifer's mind, and she didn't know when she could even detect Lilith's existence. It was as if she had turned into something, enveloping the city.

"She's dead. ”

"So you got a new owner?"

β€œ......”

"'Only identify with the daughter who is most like the Night Witch', Sister Lucie, if you think about it carefully, there are really a lot of loopholes that can be exploited. Hawkers, although I can't figure it out now, I can't let go of Sister Luxi. ”

Ashmill paced towards Lucifer, but there was something hidden in the smile on his lips that only Lucifer could see.

Lucifer suddenly regretted it, but ...... This mood was quickly interrupted by a knee-jerk action.

"Celebratory wine, take it from you. (To be continued)
