章節 18: Chapter 17: Hungry Rainicorns
A person runs desperately through the forest
he is gasping for breath and his body is trembling visibly
he looks really terrified
The person kept desperately fleeing from his pursuer
He stopped his movement when he saw a large oak tree blocking the path.
he was about to jump it, but stopped when he saw the hollow interior of the tree
The person seemed to be thinking, keep running or hide in the tree?
His doubts were cleared by hearing the sound of leaves being stepped on in the dark interior of the forest.
He no longer doubts and hid inside the tree, hoping that his pursuer would not notice him and continue on his way.
A few seconds later a series of footsteps were heard a few meters from the fallen tree and they stopped right in front of the hollow tree.
The person hidden inside the tree held his breath so as not to make any noise.
Slowly the footsteps approached the tree on the road and stopped in front of him.
All that separated the person and the pursuer from him was a thin layer of wood.
Just when the person thought that he was going to be discovered, the footsteps were heard on the trunk and then they moved away little by little.
The person inside the tree released his breath and sighed in relief, it seems that he lost it
"You know, it was a good idea to hide, the one that wasn't a good idea was to hide in the most obvious place in the environment."
These were the last words the person heard before feeling a stabbing pain in his chest and falling into darkness.
Pov: Blanche
Pulling my stake out from inside the hollow tree, I couldn't help but laugh a little at the silly vampire who hid in the middle of the road.
It has been a month since my alliance with Tom, I have returned to the routine of hunting vampires, the few that still go hunting
Today I met one who tried to attack a neighboring tribe, the idiot sure thought that after my battle with the empress I would need time to recover
I arrived before he could suck someone's blood, he seemed surprised and horrified by my presence
maybe I spend a little on my extermination of vampires
The little vampire didn't hesitate much and ran towards the forest, trying to get lost among the trees
I almost felt sorry for using my haki to follow him, his spirit never left my detection range
I followed him slowly, I didn't want to catch him soon since maybe he had more companions nearby waiting, that would lead me to them to exterminate them
So I followed him a few feet away to keep him running
I felt that he stopped in the middle of a road, it seems that he no longer wants to continue running away
When I got close to the place where it stopped, all I saw was a big hollow tree in the middle of the road, although I could feel it hiding inside the tree, I never thought that a vampire would be so stupid as to choose such an obvious hiding place.
I sighed a little in disappointment, if the vampire stopped, that means he has no allies nearby.
I was going to stab him quick
but I thought joking with him a little
So I walked over to the tree and followed the path, I could almost hear him sigh with relief.
A little further, I turned my body into snow to be lighter and not make noise when walking
I approached the tree and before killing it I informed him of his stupid mistake
After returning to the attacked tribe and receiving several thanks from the humans
I walked towards Tom's camp which was quite close to the tribe
I really need to relax and get some sleep, so far I have only found one of the parts that Tom needs to repair the ship, of course I offered my help
with my knowledge I can make the future trip to the islands more comfortable and safe, I am also compiling information in a book that will be useful to Tom to start his own society in the islands
So between hunting and looking for the pieces, I have hardly had a break
But today I will finally be able to sleep calmly and peacefully in the camp....I just raised a flag, right?
Some human screams took me out of my thoughts, they came from Tom's camp
"Shit"
I quickly froze the ground in front of me and slid at high speeds towards the camp.
When I arrived the first thing I saw were the humans running in panic while a strange colored unicorn was chasing them
I recognized them easily, they were the rainicorns
The second was another rainicorn with the rabbit girl in her mouth, trying to chew off her head, it seems that her hat prevented the rainicorn from sinking its teeth into her
Rainicorns could fly, become temporarily intangible, and shoot lightning that paints things in colors.
Their offensive power wasn't much, but they were hard to catch, I have to do this before they can react
freezing the ground in front of me
I slid at high speed towards the rainicorn that was trying to chew the girl
when he saw me coming
It was already too late
I drew my dagger from its sheath and plunged it deep into the rainicorn's neck, drenching myself in blood of different colors.
the body fell inert to the ground and the girl was able to get out of the mouth, still scared, she clung to my body quite strongly
Looking towards the other rainicorn that was trying to catch the other humans
I quickly created several ice spikes that trapped the unicorn in its place, I wanted to interrogate it to find out how many rainicorns had entered this dimension
leaving the girl on the ground
I approached the rainicorn who looked confused
It is understandable, I made him believe that he lost his powers
as I did? I just cast a weak barrier around him with a hypnotic effect that makes him believe his abilities no longer work.
I created it inspired by the hypnosis of the empress
Also I guess he was surprised by the attack
they see humans as animals that cannot defend themselves, just like we see cattle
-Speaking in Korean:[ ]
["Hello, you must be confused by the situation, but I don't care, I just need to know how many of your people entered this dimension, tell me and I'll let you live"]
I wasn't going to let him live.
it is dangerous to let him go back to the crystal dimension, although there is no evil behind his actions because they see us as any other food
There is no evil behind mine either, I'm just protecting my kind
["What are you? How can a stupid animal talk? What did you do to Erick?"]
The confused and proud rainicorn asked me quite a few questions
But I was able to deduce two things with the questions
One, they can't understand our language, maybe that's why they see us as animals, just like Korean doesn't seem to make sense to someone who doesn't speak it.
And two, not all rainicorns have interesting names (no offense to the Erics).
["Your friend was about to eat a girl of my kind, so I killed him, now tell me how many more came or you'll end up just like him]
I like to talk like a movie villain
but my threat seemed to work
[I....it was just the two of us, we heard that there were very tasty animals in this dimension, so we opened a portal and then found them here, that's all]
[I see, listen I really would like to try to communicate with your kind, but I don't have time right now, so….thank you for cooperating, now bye]
A spike of ice grew from the ground and pierced his head.
killing him instantly
It seems that the rainicorns discovered our dimension
although they are a fairly civilized and advanced species on a par with humans
I can't let them keep hunting
I will try to kill, only those who actively try to hunt humans
When I snapped out of my thoughts and looked around, all the humans in Tom's tribe had stopped running away and were now looking confusedly at the corpses of the rainicorns.
i really want to sleep
"Hey! I know this must be confusing, first vampires and now psycho unicorns, but I've had a long day and I really need a shower and a nap, can I explain everything later?"
Everyone nodded, but they still seem confused by the situation.
not every day you are attacked by colored flying carnivorous unicorns
(4 years later)
in an abandoned city
The vague sound of an ax cutting through something solid can be heard alongside a woman's grunts of effort.
The noises were from a young woman who was chopping wood in front of a makeshift shelter
her cutting technique is excellent, but her ax was strange, it was deep red and seemed modified to look like a guitar
It seems that she is almost finished, she only had one last log left
The young woman placed the last log in her place and prepared her axe-guitar, while she remembered the day she learned to cut wood.
'Remember, you must hold the ax by the handle with enough force to make sure you don't drop it'
'and finally, you must always fix your sight on the place where you want to cut. In this way you will have a better efficiency in the cuts, understood?'
An angry growl came from the young woman and her grip on her ax tightened.
The young woman raised the ax and dropped it, splitting the trunk cleanly in half.
Placing the ax on the ground, the young woman sat on a piece of log and took something out of her pocket.
It was a colorless drawing of a young man in a suit, with a trench coat and round glasses.
The woman looked at the drawing for a few moments before squeezing it in anger and putting it in her pocket.
"We'll meet again soon...Blanchie"
A/N: surprise!, time-skip and it seems that our Marcy is about to return
