Kapitel 117: Chapter 116
[Third Person's PoV]
Yukime looked at Shadow excitedly. "I see, so you go by a new name now, huh? So you're Shadow."
She smiled warmly towards him. "So it was you who have been saving some of my girls. You never change."
"Oi! Old hag, you know this fellow? You seem happy to see him," Juggernaut asked, curious to know about the man who was able to stop both of their attacks with a finger.
Yukime nodded her head. "Heard about him as well. He is the man who could destroy a single city with a wave of his hand if he so much pleased. He's Shadow, the leader of a mysterious organization that no one really knows anything about."
"I see… I thought the rumors of him were a bit exaggerated, but to be able to stop my attack like that… that just means I can't stand still and let this Shadow get ahead of us. I'm going to be the one that's going to defeat the Blood Queen," Juggernaut announced, stepping forwards towards the entrances of the Crimson.
Guarding the entrance was a former captain of Knights, turned rogue due to his large bloodlust. He was wearing a white cloth that covered his entire body with a straight katana with bandages for a handle.
"I gained the moniker of White Demon–" Juggernaut couldn't care less as he charged ahead.
"Coming through!"
The 'White Demon' stood there awkwardly as he realized who Juggernaut was, so he knew he couldn't do anything and decided to let him pass without any trouble.
Yukime looked towards Shadow with a seductive smile. "I hope we can get to talking later so I can properly thank you for all your help. Now if you excuse me, I have things to do."
She walked past the 'White Demon' while giving him a cold look, covering half her face with her metal fan, which caused him to shrink back in fear, realizing who Yukime was as well.
'Your daughter has grown, hasn't she, Yukihime?' Shadow conversed with his shadow soldiers as he walked towards the Crimson Tower as well.
'Yes, she has. She already has 9 tails. She must have worked really hard. I'm proud of her, my liege,' Yukihime responded.
The 'White Demon' grinned with bloodlust, ready to swing his sword as he thought he didn't have to worry about Shadow.
As Shadow walked right past him, he thought Shadow was being arrogant, but his chest lifted upwards slightly. His body dropped to the ground with a thud, and in his place stood a grim reaper-looking shadow wielding the same weapon the 'White Demon' was holding.
The reaper-looking Shadow soldier immediately sank into Shadow's shadow without much thought.
Shadow then entered the Tower without any obstacles, which caused him to smirk.
…
Adelphi and Mary burst through a wall, revealing Beta in a library, scrimmaging through the books with other Shadow Garden members in higher places doing the same, conducting their research.
"Beta," Adelphi called out, nodding to her, to which Beta nodded right back.
"You brought company," Beta said, looking at Mary. "If it isn't the 'oldest' Vampire hunter."
Mary gave her an awkward expression. "Does everyone in your organization just know who I am?"
"No, some can't be bothered. The only reason why I know is because I'm personally researching vampires and the progenitor blood. Do you know of it?"
"For what reason would you need the progenitor's blood?" Mary asked suspiciously, with narrow eyes.
"We believe that there is a link between the blood of your Progenitor and Possession," Beta explained while flipping the pages of her book.
"What you just said could be considered blasphemy against the progenitor," Mary growled.
Beta shrugged her shoulders. "Why should I care? She isn't my progenitor. Anyways, shouldn't you be heading up to stop the resurrection upstairs?"
"My job was only to guide her towards the Crimson Tower," Adelphi said, about to laze around and wait until Shadow was done.
To which Beta shook her head. "If the master wanted her here, it's for a reason. So you should see it through to the end and deliver her to him personally on the top floor where he most likely is waiting," Beta instructed with a serious expression, looking at Adelphi in her eyes.
She let out a sigh as she nodded in understanding. "Let's go," Adelphi said towards Mary with a serious expression.
Mary didn't like appearing like a burden and looked displeased with the way they were treating her.
"I can take care of myself just fine, you know…" She said with a serious expression.
"Uh huh," Adelphi plainly replied as they went up the stairs, where they would occasionally meet vampires.
Adelphi surrounded her sword in flames before she disappeared and reappeared with all their heads in her hands, gripping them by their hair and throwing them on the floor.
"Let's continue," Adelphi said as they continued climbing, meanwhile, Mary looked at Adelphi's back in disbelief.
'Strong, very strong, and it looks like she was taking orders from that Beta girl… which means she's stronger, but then… who do they serve? I can't even fathom what type of being is able to control these girls and make them obey him,' Mary thought as they made it towards the next floor, where they saw Juggernaut slash a vampire in half with a heavy sword.
Juggernaut then noticed the company and smirked with a battlelust towards them. "You two sure as heck don't look like vampires, but I guess you'll do just fine for a bit."
Adelphi sighed as she disappeared where she stood and appeared before Juggernaut. But before she could do any damage, Juggernaut blocked her sword with his, causing sparks to fly between them.
Adelphi's sword blurred as she started swinging it and slashing it towards Juggernaut with the intention to kill.
Juggernaut, using his instinct, would block it and try to counter it.
Mary was about to join, but Adelphi stopped her. "Stay out of this."
Lightning flashed in Adelphi's eyes as her figure blurred. She left behind a light trail as she ran past Juggernaut, who blocked her blow with his sword purely instinctively. More and more trails started appearing as a crack appeared on his sword.
He tried to swing his sword and strike Adelphi with a wicked grin, but Adelphi was simply too fast. All his sword ended up doing was destroying the ground where they once stood.
Adelphi increased her speed and started drawing blood from him before he grabbed his sword with both hands and started spinning in circles. Adelphi flipped into the air, causing Juggernaut to miss before she landed right on his blade and thrust her blade forward, impaling Juggernaut right through his glabella. As her sword went through, Juggernaut was frozen in fear as he knew his life came to an end.
Before he could utter any last words, Adelphi sent a bolt of lightning through his sword and right into his brain, frying it completely until there was no recovery.
Adelphi took her sword out and flicked the blood off before positioning it to her side. She turned towards the frozen Mary and asked, "Well, what are you waiting for? Let's go," before walking away. Mary shook her head and sighed before following closely behind.
