Capítulo 463: Dollmaker
Bloed looked with a stunned expression as Nathan attacked Regina.
He was not the only one. Dino and the other students were just as stunned as him.
But their surprise soon turned into shock and fear when they realized that their bodies were moving against their will.
"W-What is this?
"M-My body…!"
"S-Stop!"
Just then, Bloed felt a string of physic energy invading his body.
'This….!'
Aghast, he realized that the energy was trying to control him.
'Get out!'
With a thought, his entire pool of physic energy erupted fiercely. It then rushed towards the string of energy trying to control him and devoured it.
Bloed immediately felt the control of his body returning to him and heaved a sigh of relief. However, his actions caught the attention of the little girl fighting Regina.
"Oh? Someone resisted my control?"
The little girl looked at Bloed curiously, and immediately, her eyes lit up in excitement.
"What beautiful blue eyes. Hey hey, boy, do you want to be my doll? I promise to treat you well, okay~."
Bloed felt a chill on his spine. It was as though something creepy was ogling to him.
And to his horror, the girl sent tens of strings of physic energy towards him at that moment.
His expression turned solemn.
He was able to defend against the first string of physic energy thanks to being an ESPer and his experience wielding physic energy. But he was not confident that he could keep the control of his body if that many strings invaded him.
His brain moved at great speed, and he quickly got an idea.
In the next instant, he brandished his saber.
With pinpoint accuracy, he cut every string of physic energy flying towards him!
All the strings were immediately destroyed!
The little girl was stunned. She stared at Bloed in surprise, as though she could not believe that he managed to stop her attack.
But before she could attempt to control him again, the silver-haired Valkyrie acted.
"Bitch! What do you think you are doing!?" Regina swore in rage. Large amounts of physic energy surged out of her, turning into a giant sword that attacked the little girl.
However, the girl just grinned and pulled the students that she controlled to stand in front of her.
She was using Nathan, Dino, and the others like human shields! If Regina wanted to kill her, she had to kill them first!
But to her surprise–
*Slash!*
Regina did not hesitate.
"Huh?"
The girl was stunned. She could only watch as the sword cut her into two.
She then stared at Regina with a dumbfounded expression.
"… You didn't hesitate to cut them."
Regina snorted.
"These petty tricks will not work on me."
The girl was startled and immediately realized that something was wrong.
When she looked again at the students again, she realized that they were completely ashen but otherwise uninjured.
The girl's expression froze.
"How? I'm sure you cut them."
Regina did not explain. She just smiled at the girl as though mocking her.
Her ESP ability, [Energy Materialization], gave her perfect control over almost any form of energy; including ways to make her energy harmless to the people that touched it.
If she wanted, her energy could turn into a harmless show of lights, or into a mass-destruction weapon.
Of course, the fact that she managed to change her energy to two different states in such an instant showed Regina's astonishing control over her ESP ability.
The little girl knew nothing about Regina's abilities, and that was the reason she was caught by surprise when Regina did not hesitate to cut the students to kill her.
With an astonished face, the girl looked at Regina before pouting.
"Ugh. I liked this doll a lot. But now it's destroyed."
Regina furrowed her brows and narrowed her eyes.
She was sure that she had cut the little girl into two. In fact, the lower part of the little girl's body was burned to ashes by the energy sword's high temperature.
But although the girl was cut into two, her upper body was floating in the air eerily while smiling.
She was not bleeding, and she did not show any sign of pain. As though she was–
'A doll." Regina's eyes narrowed.
What she cut into two was not her true body. Her true body was not here in the first place.
"Who are you?" Regina finally asked.
The little girl brought a finger to her chin and giggled.
"You can call me [Dollmaker]." She said and sighed. "Such a shame. I wanted to play with you a lot more, but you damaged this too much… Such a baddie."
Regina frowned and realized that a great amount of mana was leaking out of the little girl.
"I see." She nodded in understanding.
Even though her previous attack did kill the little girl, it destroyed that body, making it unusable.
'But where is her true body?'
Regina expanded her senses to try to find the little girl's true body and examined the body cut into two to see if she could find a string of mana that guided her to the location of the original body, but she came empty-handed.
Apparently, this [Dollmaker] was quite good at hiding his traces.
Large amounts of mana were leaking out of the little girl's body, making her movements stiffer and stiffer with every passing second. Even so, she kept an innocent smile on her face.
Just before losing all her mana, the little girl suddenly looked in Bloed's direction.
"… I love your eyes, guy that I can't control. Tell me, do you want to go out with me? I promise that I will turn you into a very beautiful doll."
Bloed showed a disgusted expression, not bothering to reply.
"Even your disgusted expression is cute." The little girl giggled. "Goodbye. We will me-"
*Slash!*
"You talk too much." Regina cut the little girl's head before she finished speaking.
She then approached her and frowned.
"… A human girl. That creepy guy somehow kept her alive until now."
Bloed immediately understood Regina's implication.
[Dollmaker] was using living humans as dolls.
"… Poor girl." He sighed and approached the head of the little girl, closing her eyes with a complicated expression. "… I really want to kill that guy."
"Sorry, master. I failed to find the true body."
"It's not your fault. Whoever he is must be experienced in this." Bloed sighed. "Let's destroy the node quickly."
Regina nodded and walked towards the node.
One second later, the fourth node was destroyed.
