Ok, I lied. The next chapter is the real turning point...
this is just an intro to the conflict...(actually, I just didn't expect it to be this long)
Thanks for review/comments/faves/follows! Love you all!
Ayase family's residence, night time;
The door closed, a specific girl enters the house, locking the door tight and put up the second lock. She walks to the bedroom, and sat on the bed next to the sleeping blonde. She gently strokes her hair and leaning herself to give a gentle kiss on her cheek.
"N…Nozomi…?" Eli called her.
"Ericchi…." she replied.
"Did you forget what I tell you? Don't sit on the bed if you're dirty… go change…" Eli said.
"How do you even know that I'm dirty, Miss Ever Perfect Elichika?"
"Don't change the topic— hurry up and change or I'll be mad…" Eli replied.
She chuckled,
"Yes-yes, I'll off and go…" she replied.
Eli sighed weakly before she closes her eyes again. The purple haired girl took off her clothes as she took a glance onto the mirror near her. She could see Eli peeking slightly with one eye— she decided to not say anything about it.
She search through the dresser and suddenly,
"Nozomi, that's my dresser…. Yours is on the left…" Eli said.
"Oh—sorry, I thought you moved it already…" she replied.
"We did, yours was the right one last year…" Eli replied.
"Ah—!" She bit her lip.
Eli sighed weakly.
The turquoise eyes girl quickly moves to her dresser and start to look for something that she could wear. She picks up dark purple lingerie with fancy black frills— the design is perfect and it's very well made too. Without any delay, she wears the lingerie and it fits perfectly with her.
She was about to jump to the bed— but….
"Wash yourself first… put the dirty clothes on the basket…." Eli said.
"Sheesh, noisy aren't you…?" she said.
"That just because you're forgetting all the rules in this house… we've did everything for a year now and I was hoping that you don't need to be reminded again…" Eli said coldly.
She smirked before she quickly head to the bathroom to wash herself. She dried herself with a light blue towel and…
"Why are you using my towel, Nozomi…. yours is right next to it…" Eli said. She turned her sight and sees a light purple towel with cute baby blue border placed next to it. She changed the towel immediately.
After that, she headed to bed and rest next to her,
"Good night, Ericchi…" she said before she quickly makes another kiss on her forehead and turned around—burying herself inside the bedcover and hug the pillow. After a moment, she could feel Eli's hand brushing against her shoulder gently then down to her arms— then repeat for over and over.
"You're acting strange… are you ok?" Eli asked.
"I'm just a little bewildered…." She replied.
"I see…." Eli said.
The room is quiet again for a moment.
"Hey… do you think Lilith and Eve can handle whatever situation in the clinic?" Eli asked.
"I don't know…." she replied.
"I'm worried about them, can you check?" Eli asked.
She remained quiet for a moment….
"Sure…" she said before she woke up quickly and took a jacket and a shirt. Then without any longer delay, she walk out from the room,
Eli smiled faintly,
"Nozomi….." she called her out. The purple haired girl turned around,
"Before you go, I want to tell you that— the strangest thing you did tonight is where you obey every rule that I just spoke…. We've never agreed to any kind of rule in this house…and you always do whatever you wish to do…even if it makes me upset…"
She blushed madly as she heard it.
"You're still a master of lies and trickery …" she said with a faint smile.
"…I'm perfect, what can I say?" Eli said with a playful smile.
The purple haired girl continues to walk out from the room after she sighed weakly.
The clinic, night time;
"Evacuate the children and elders first, move to the third floor!" Maki shouted while holding the biggest door alone— some other securities and doctors holding the other doors.
"Got it-nya!" Rin said as she and Hanayo used a big cart that they took from the backyard to move out children, they got helped by a few other peoples, nurses and securities.
"Damn it, what are they even doing with this place?!" Maki yelled as she glanced at the door. The ghouls are being very aggressive and they started to attempt to break the door.
Eve in her human form and Niko busy with a few things in their laptop.
"How is it, Niko?" Maki asked.
"A little more!" Niko said.
The light began to dim.
"Darn it! Don't let the light goes off or we are all be screwed!" Maki shouted.
"Nishikino-san! We need to press up to the Sixth floor if we want to keep up all light to be on and using the announcing screen out there…" the engineer said.
"Hear that, Rin? Do that!" Maki yelled.
"I got it-nya!" Rin said.
"Nishikino-san! We scouted a few strange creatures wandering around town! They are all looks like a group of animals…" a security guard said as he ran down stair.
"The Chimeras…" Maki said.
"We got it!" Niko said.
"Good timing, hurry up! Everyone get up stairs!" Maki yelled. Eve and the others quickly move up all equipment they need upstairs. The securities getting all heavy item to hold the door for a moment before they all started to ran upstairs as well.
"Hurry and go, Maki, leave the turning off job to me…" Niko said.
"Don't die…" Maki said.
"Sheesh, I won't…" Niko said.
Maki quickly leave the door after she shoved a heavy item on the door and ran upstairs. Niko swiftly turning off all the electronics and light in that floor and moves through shadows to get upstairs—the ghouls did the same though they didn't manage to get upstairs before the securities and Maki punched them off and slam the door closed. Once again, they're all held on the previous floors.
"We need to install the connection on this floor again…" Eve said.
"I know…" Niko said.
"Hanayo, if you're free, help them out…" Maki said.
"I am— going!" Hanayo quickly ran to help Niko and Eve.
"M-M-Maki-chan! P-Problem here-nya!" Rin shouted.
"What's up!?" Maki asked as she held the door.
"Z-z-zombie Werepanthers are climbing up the building-nya!" Rin yelled.
"Zombie Werepanthers?! Is that even possible?!" Maki shouted.
Eve surprised to hear it.
"Damn— then those ghouls must've been attacking the Chimeras and eat their flesh… this isn't good…" Eve said.
"Darn it! Where's Lilith when we need her?!" Maki shouted. Eve bit her lips,
"Should've not let her off…" she whispered to herself…
Eve stood up,
"I'll take care of them… please work on it…" Eve said before she ran upstairs, leaving Hanayo and Niko to focus on the laptop.
"Stay focus! Do your best, everyone! Let's not fall until we managed to do our ultimate weapon!" Maki shouted.
"Yeah!" Everyone shouted in respond.
At the other side of the town,
Umi, Honoka, and Kotori—still on her wheelchair trying their best to fight off the chimera— Kotori managed to take a pair of gun off one of the police and used it to shoot at them while Honoka and Umi using their own physical strength.
Kotori tried to shot another, but she couldn't due to the lack of ammos.
"Ah! Ran out of ammos again!" Kotori said.
"Here…!" Honoka swiftly punched her fist to a police who came along with the Chimeras— she took his Gun and threw it to Kotori.
"Watch out!" Umi quickly ran in front of Kotori to take the damage from a shotgun.
"Ahh!" Kotori cowered behind Umi. Umi grinned painfully as a bullet wounds her shoulder. The man who attempted to shot Kotori suddenly getting dragged by a Chimera and eaten alive before the other started to feast on him too.
"W-what the… they're really eating their own friend…" Umi said.
"Looks like they've some kind of rule to not harm humans or something… I've been paying attention to it…" Kotori said.
"They've been doing that?!" Umi asked.
"Yes… they've been doing that… every time one shot is directed to me, the shooters get mauled. I think they just wanted to capture us…" Kotori said.
"But why?" Umi wondered.
Kotori sighed weakly,
"I'm not sure, but… if what Lilith said about Meg was right… then she must be wanted to torture us herself…" Kotori said.
"To be captured for that—no…. I can't let that happen, we're fighting till the end!" Umi said.
"Yus!" Honoka responded before she swiftly kick and punch the chimeras.
"Honoka-chan, I think you're cool without transformation, I suppose that error actually do something good to you!" Kotori said.
"Hehe-thanks!" Honoka replied as she continues to fight.
Suddenly, a big shadows coming up from the sky… Everyone turned up to the sky and—
"W—whoa?!" Honoka, Kotori, and Umi surprised as a giant werewolf appeared from the sky.
"N-Nozomi-chan?" Honoka wondered.
"Sorry I'm late, I need to go to clinic to check out something first— but since looks like someone already got to hold situation I went straight here…" she said—already stripped to nothing but furs covering her body.
Umi frowned,
"You can talk in that form? I thought you can't…. only satyr can talk in another form…" Umi said.
"Put the questioning session later… three of you should head to clinic to help cleaning up… I'll come by later after I deal with them!" she shouted.
"Got it!" Umi held Kotori's wheelchair from the front before she started to dash with her horns facing to the front, The Chimeras and police quickly made their way before she crushes them along with Honoka who ran behind them to protect Kotori.
"Yep, now you all have to deal with me…" she said as she stretched around.
"That's a very terrible choice…. You should've known that the target is you…right?" a familiar voice.
"Meg….?" She turned to the source of the voice.
"Now that you're alone and they're occupied with another thing…." Meg smiled mischievously.
"…..actually, no… I don't want to be responsible with what happen to you… I should just let him do it… because he is the one who wanted it badly…" Meg continued.
"You're sick bastard…." She said.
"Hmm? Not quite, I never kill anyone—not with my own hand…" Meg said.
"So much for a promise to not betray…." She said.
"I never betray anyone— you're all the one who always betray someone and suspecting others… that's what human does…. Not me…."
She grunted,
"I'll make this an end to you!"
"Try…." Meg smiled amusedly.
The clinic, night time;
They reached the sixth floor, Hanayo and Niko busy with adjusting the settings while the others are still busy with their own activity. Eve flew around outside to take down the climbing undead.
"We're close to it…" Hanayo said.
"I'll go prepare everything…" Niko said before she quickly ran upstairs very swiftly as if she is moving through the faint shadow of everyone's.
Suddenly, one of the windows broken and a werepanther—with rotten flesh came in. Everyone in the room screams in panic. Though before the werepanther able to do anything—a succubus flew in and grabs its head, spinning it very roughly then threw it out of the window.
Everyone in the room staring at this specific succubus— blonde haired and blue eyed, pale white skin and cute features,
"Arisa-chan!" Rin shouted happily.
"Sorry, I'm late, I just got the message from Eve… and I was close to sleeping too…" Arisa said.
"Arisa-chan! How is the situation outside?" Hanayo asked as she keep on going with her work.
Arisa sighed,
"I'm a little hopeless about this town, to be honest. I think there will be very less survivor out there. Chimeras, ghouls, and zombies are everywhere… there's no place to hide but this…" Arisa said.
"So we're actually the last survivor…?" Hanayo asked.
"Not quite— but anyway, why don't you all connect it to the town's central database. This town has one database that you can use to announce something…" Arisa said.
"I—I don't know how to hack into the database!" Hanayo said.
Arisa sighed,
"I'll do that…" Arisa said before she quickly go to help Hanayo.
"Arisa, is there any chance of you to see Honoka and the others?" Maki asked as she keeps holding the door that aggressively being slammed by the ghouls.
"I did, I told them to return to their home to protect their family. There also still a few succubus and incubus out there protecting a few survivors of family along with the military—they're prioritizing their acquaintance…" Arisa explained.
"Where's Eli and Nozomi?" Maki asked again.
Arisa remained quiet about it,
"Arisa-chan?" Hanayo asked.
Arisa sighed weakly.
"Sorry I promised to not tell anyone about it yet…" Arisa said.
Everyone flustered though they let that off for now.
It's a very dark place, with only a few lights from green fires surround it,
A purple haired girl woke up from her unconscious state. She tried to endure the headache she got and start to look around with her werewolf night vision. She could sense a living nearby and as she turned around, her turquoise eyes could see—
"WHAT THE!?" She immediately punched a man who has been staring at her.
He fell down to the ground. Nozomi tried to look at him again, he looks harmless. He is tall, slim, light brown haired and his eyes are yellow, his horns are straight, long and pointed up, his wings are huge too—but overall looks, he is somewhat very feminine.
"S-Sorry…I got surprised. I'm not very good with man around me too…" Nozomi said.
The man smiled, and he giggled gently.
"Where am I?" Nozomi asked.
"U-unde-wo-wold…" he tried to speak— for some reason, he sounded like he is mute. Nozomi smiled gently.
"Underworld… I see…" Nozomi replied.
"M-ma-mah…n-name ih…Jo-jor-jorje…" he said.
"George…?" Nozomi asked.
He nodded.
"I'm Toujou Nozomi…" Nozomi said.
"E-E-Eli'h…. W-w-wifhe?" he asked.
"No, I haven't married to her… but yes, she is my lover…" Nozomi replied.
He pointed to Nozomi's belly.
"Unh-bhe-able bohndh…" he said.
Nozomi smiled wryly,
"This is an accident…. I didn't mean to…" Nozomi said.
George smiled wryly too before he beckoned to her.
"C-hchome…Ah-w-whand tu shoh ya-h ho-mtin…" He said. Nozomi stood up,
"Then show me this something…" Nozomi said.
George's house, unknown time;
Nozomi sat on the guest sofa in his guest room. He asked her to wait there. Nozomi tried to scan around the room— she could see a lot of photos and crafts placed around the room. For some reason, she is very familiar with everyone in the photos. She could see Eli, Arisa, Meg, one girl that she suspects to be Alizee, Lilith, Eve, and George. They all look very happy to be with each other. Then she also could see a few crafts that look like a jar with seven kinds of creatures. She guessed it to be the symbol of seven sins.
Not for long after, George came out with a thick book, he placed it in front of Nozomi.
"R—reahd dis…Ahm-busy making homtin foh ya…" He said.
"Thanks…." Nozomi said.
He smiled before he went off.
Nozomi started to open the book— apparently, it's a diary.
This is the first page of diary…
My name is George… I'm muted and there's not many likes me to be their friend, I'm a very lonely guy until they come to me like a dream comes true.
Thank you, everyone, especially to you, Lilith and Eve.
Nozomi turned the page.
Dear Diary,
You're bought to let me express my feeling— Thanks to Eli for the brilliant idea. But even though she was the one who bought you, I want to start everything from talking about Lilith and Eve because they're the one who found me first before we're all found by her.
Lilith and Eve are my very first best friends. We met for the very first time at the Emerald Cave, the place where I build my home after I was dumped by my kind, not knowing about who my family is. Eve told me, the reason why they're in this cave was 'because they were also dumped by their parents—finally'.
After so many years of living in a hell—they said, a hell where they always told that they're just a mistake, a hell where they always told that they're just adopted, a hell where they always told that they're just a nuisance and garbage of the kingdom, they decided to go here to live—just two of them. They are glad that everything could be over with… but I'm sad because they have to face the same fate as me.
'Lilith is a goofball', said Eve. She often do a lot of stupid things on purpose—or just because she thinks it will be fun. Lilith is also the one who taught me how to wear my clothes or how to tend myself. Eve said, it's terrible that she taught me how to wear things so femininely, but I like it so Eve can't say anything else about it. But I know Eve feel disgusted by my change…and Lilith is annoying too at times where she agreed with her— but I'm still going to stay as who I am, because Lilith told me, if I like it, I should be proud about it. Just like the name they gave me, George.
Nozomi smiled faintly before she turned the page again,
For many years, three of us living together like a family—like sisters! I'm sister George! Hehe. There's so many things we do in those years and we lives long too because we eat from the flesh of the dryad. We often gone to hunt together— they're amazed at me because I'm a very good hunter. Then….
Nozomi tried to read it quicker— she is currently not interested on the small details and decided to skip the pages until she saw Eli's name mentioned again.
…in that day we tried to look around the kingdom, we found out that there's already so many things changed. Our kind always been so attracted with lingerie and leather fashion, back then, there's not many style available in town, but this time, there's so many of them! Apparently, Ayase, the noblest family who often win the heart of our kind gave birth to a very clever child named Ayase Eli so they changed a lot of rules as well due to the suggestion of hers. Ayase Eli is very powerful, by just seeing her make me feel so weak on my knee. She is born to dominate, I'm very sure of it.
Usually, our kind held a culture of maturity test when someone lives more than 20 years, the test is just to live in human world for a few years—this Ayase Eli, she lives in human world from ever since she is 5 years old… it's very impressive. She returned here at age 10. I never know how human world looks like, but knowing humans are very infamous among our kind, I bet it must be really tough.
Lilith is falling in love so madly with her, seeing her move already make her swooning like crazy— but she knows that she won't be able to get any closer to her before she could impress her. So firstly, she tried to get closer to the family who often has a good chat with them, The Bathory Family—cousin of Ayase family.
The Bathory family has two daughters, Margaret and Alizee. They're very fancy to be with too, but Alizee is a little scary because she really likes watching violence on humans. I personally don't really like them because they're somewhat looks like our kind—without horns and wings.
Margaret, or we call her, Meg, she is very gentle and kind— even though she is a little twisted at times. She also has a good sense of humor, she always make everyone smile, especially her younger sister.
Nozomi turned the page again.
I like the way Meg treats everyone—because in her eyes, everyone is equal, even me. Lilith and Eve often being too kind to me, but Meg always treat me like a normal person. She made me feel like I am one of the normal one. I'm very happy. I tell them about it then everyone, even Eli, started to treat me like a normal.
They pretend that I can talk to them like normal, even though sometime, Eve often repeated my words to make it much clearer, but she did it like she is just agreeing with me. I think the funniest thing about Meg is the time when Eve accidentally confessed to her—but then Meg said, she is only interested on the other side of the twin. Eve was broken hearted but Meg was so honest and it just hilarious at how she rejects her likes someone who doesn't know how to make a lie. Ever since that time, Eve always gets upset at Meg and Lilith is a little disgusted by her. Poor Meg….
I know Meg isn't a bad girl. She really loves everyone, she just wanted to be a good big sister for everyone, but sometime she just doesn't know how to be one. Her family always educate her to be twisted, her younger sister found amusement in torturing humans, they always teach her that human have no value— just like what every majority of our kind say about them.
Meg is tortured, but she cannot say anything— she isn't taught to tell lies, she isn't taught to break promise, and she isn't taught to know mercy. Eve told me, there is this one day where she was forced to put a display of torturing human as a succubus in Bathory Family, it's their special culture and its very well known by our kinds. Eve know that Meg is crying inside, but she cannot show them how fragile she is. She always has to act tough and if not, she will have to leave home eternally—because she is a shame to the family.
I'm glad that I'm not someone like Meg— I rather be alone than to have a family like that. Then…
Nozomi once again skipping a few pages as she does a quick read through their daily life ever since they met Eli. Apparently, it just getting better since Eli asked her parents to take Lilith, Eve, and George as her 'servant'. It was all just an excuse to keep them at home. She still treats them like her friends— even family. Then they began to form the seven sins, a group that grants every wishes of dying Succubus and Incubus.
It's all happening so smoothly for approximately four years until a specific event that Nozomi really wanted to know about, she started to read slower again…
….in that day, it was Alizee's turn to put a display for Bathory's culture. Lilith and Eve never liked the show, I don't too, but as a respect to the Bathory family, we have to come to join Eli and Arisa who just fell asleep from boredom—or maybe they're just pretending to be asleep so that they don't need to watch?
Either way, everyone in the shows seen Eli and Arisa's behavior as a form of symbol that they're not impressed by the show, it was because they all respect Eli as founder and master of almost everything. They're demanding Alizee to raise the quality of the show, which mean to raise the cruelty as well until Eli and Arisa willing to open their eyes. Eve said, they just will never open their eyes because they just don't want to see Human tortured… but since everyone think that way, they decided to leave it that way until the living human stocks are gone.
Eli and Arisa thought, it will be fine, because Alizee looks like enjoying herself too—and Meg doesn't want to say anything about it either. Eli and Arisa only opened their eyes at the end of the show, then Eli said thank you for the show and with full of pride she said, she could do better than that. Annoying Eli is annoying, but what can we say? She is perfect.
Everyone cheers for her and expecting her to show how cruel she could be, Eli just smiled and said, if she will ever do it, then it will be on the human world—because after all, one doesn't show one's might from dominating against the weak but victory over the mightiest.
It's a good point, but I think Alizee taking it too deeply. She said to Eli that she will go to the skull mountain—the toughest place of our realm to prove that she is strong. Eli rejects her, but Alizee still too stubborn to listen. Meg tried to stop her, but she accused Meg not trusting her, Lilith and Eve tried to talk her out of it, but she doesn't want to listen, Arisa never liked Alizee from start so she just let her do whatever…and she, is a person that refuse to communicate with me.
She must be very angry and jealous at how Eli could get everyone's heart without actually do something— although Eve said Eli already did something good for the society, influencing our kind to have more nobility.
Anyway though, we decided to just wait her return. So meanwhile….
Nozomi skipped a few pages again until she reached a point where they found out that Alizee failed to prove her words. A strong hunter returned her—with only her head found. The Bathory family doesn't mourn for her, they said, she is just one of the stupid kid—they can make plenty if they want to… but I bet Meg must be very sad about it.
Nozomi skipped again for all the mourning event, then also skipping the story about how George was left alone by Eli and Arisa, then Lilith and Eve, and Meg eventually left him as well. Nozomi also found out a detail about sometime, they traveled to the human world together before just to mess around with a lot of things there— they weren't worried because Eli knows the ground so well.
Then she slow down her reading at the part where George know about Eli's maturity test that was held by Ayase Family and Bathory family, influenced by Alizee's last wish in the past,
….Her last wish before she vanished was, one day when Eli is going to take test of her maturity test, it won't be at human world but at the skull mountain. So of course, Eli granted it. She went to the skull mountain alone. Arisa, Lilith, Eve and I were really worried, but Eli doesn't looks like worried. She is always so prideful about herself.
Meg really wished that she died in this event, or at least, return with scars all over herself, but... she didn't… she returned with a lot of marble-like food which we started to call as soul food. It becomes the most popular food instantly, I like them too. She is also willing to teach everyone about how to make it from dead body—it just cost a deep stare to do it, just like how transformation magic works— very easy and simple…
Meg is really pissed by that, but she couldn't deny the fact that Eli is indeed a perfection… A lot of our kinds come to her to ask for opinions and guidance. She always let them do so and it boosts her popularity a lot more than before. Since that, our kinds started to always aim for perfection like her, they stop trying to teach their children to be sexy, but encouraged their children to be smart and tough like her.
Nozomi swears if she was there, she could've said that Eli isn't that smart and tough, she really wishes that she could tell everyone about Eli's silliness and wonder how they will react to it. She turned the pages and once again skipping the details about how Eli made a lot of change after she passed her maturity test.
But before she could read the rest of the part, George returned with a glass of drink. It looks hot and friendly—like a tea. He placed it in front of Nozomi,
"Foh-ya…." He said.
"Thank you, George…" Nozomi said.
"D-dhin?" He gestured as if he asked her to drink it.
"I'll wait it to be a little warmer…" Nozomi said.
"Ahhh! Ohe-ohe!" he said with a playful thumb up.
Nozomi giggled,
"Tell me, why are you not in our world? I heard you did…or at least, that's what Ericchi and Lilith say…" Nozomi said.
He smiled faintly,
"Ah—wand—to sahp livin…"
Nozomi smiled wryly,
"Why?"
"Ahm-tihed… ahm wand to quih…"
Nozomi sighed,
"You know, quitting or not quitting is not your right to choose…" Nozomi said.
"Noh-noh foh uhs…" he said.
"I know you can extend your life, but, still, if you do your best to stay alive, there might be something you can do for others… perhaps you can save someone else from loneliness again…?" Nozomi said.
He remained quiet,
"There's a lot of possibility… who knows?" Nozomi said before she grabs the drink and started to drink it.
"Ending your life just because you're tired isn't wise… because, it just something you cannot quit and reset at will. You have to struggle, you have to feel the pain and if possible, enjoy it…" Nozomi continued with a smile.
George still quiet…
"Mistakes happen, but don't give up, ok?" Nozomi continued again as she finished her drink.
Just a second after the last tear of her drink, Nozomi began to feel weird on her belly. It's like something is breaking inside her… she quickly stood up,
"G-George…. What is this? Why am I feeling weird?" Nozomi said.
George didn't respond, he looks like he is regretting something.
"George?!" Nozomi called him again before she falls on her knee, writhing in pain.
He still didn't make any answer.
Nozomi forced to endure the pain inside her, she just don't know what she should do until the door of his house suddenly opened so roughly.
"Nozomi!" a familiar voice.
Nozomi's vision began to blur, but she could see a figure that she knows well coming after her.
"Nozomi!" she ran in and quickly grabs Nozomi to her arm.
"Ericchi…" she called her name softly before she was lifted to her embrace.
"George! This is not your right to decide!" Eli yelled at him.
"Ericchi, stop, don't say anything else! Just take me out of here…" Nozomi said.
Eli frowned before she carries Nozomi who gripped her strongly as she endures the pain out of the house.
George sighed weakly— he took his diary and a pen on the table before he started to write,
Dear Diary,
If only I met that girl earlier…and if only I heard her words earlier, I wouldn't do such foolish things like what I have been doing. Now it's all too late. I'll meet the True Lord of all soon and the only last wish I want granted is for that girl to be the happiest girl in the world…and if it is granted, let all my ability inherited to one that make her happy at most.
Thank you for letting me to express my feeling…. This is all I can write on you.
The clinic, night time;
Maki tried her best to hold the door still along with the others,
"Arghh! Hurry up!I'm not that strong, ok?! The doors aren't that strong too!" Maki yelled.
"Transform already, no one give a shit about how you look like from now on anyway!" Niko yelled.
"There are kids and elders, idiot! I can't do that!" Maki yelled.
"Be patient! It's on 93%!" Arisa said.
"7% left…." Hanayo said.
Suddenly, the glass broke and real werepanther—looks very alive, charged in through the window along with a Succubus on his arms. She is struggling to get off him.
"Eve!" Rin shouted before she quickly grab a heavy looking cart and bash it to the werepanther. It didn't do much damage, but it was able to change his focus on Rin—which Eve use as a chance to get off him and charged him down.
She woke up from him—taking a short break.
"Thanks, Rin-chan…. you're my hero…"Eve said.
"No problem-nya! But, what about him…?" Rin asked.
Eve sighed weakly,
"This is what he get!" Eve thrust her claws deep into his heart very quickly. Blood splattered all over the place. Some people screamed and cringed as it happen, though they remained quiet and calm. It was a little awkward for a moment there….
"See Maki? That confirms it…" Niko said—breaking the awkward silence.
Maki rolled her eyes,
"Still not going to convince me…" Maki said.
"Focus, everyone! It's 98%!" Arisa shouted,
At the other side of the town, The town's hall;
Survivors are evacuated into that place. There are a lot of militaries inside the hall—most are holding the door or taking care of the survivors.
"Tsubasa-dono! How is it on the east side?!" Honoka shouted.
"We're pretty good on this, Honoka-dono! Our Snipers are awesome!" Tsubasa shouted.
"What about the clinic, Kotori-chan?" Honoka asked,
"They're on 98%..." Kotori said.
"Alright! Keep the lights on everyone! Don't let shadows give them a way to travel here! Fight! Fight! Fight!" Honoka shouted.
"The West needs more ammo!" Umi shouted.
"North too!" Erena shouted.
"We only have 60 stacks left!" shouted a soldier.
"Split them!"
"Anju-san! Please boot and connect the advertisement screen out there with the laptop now, it's on 99%!" Kotori said.
"Ready!" Anju shouted before she quickly do what she asked to.
The abandoned factory,
Meg faces to the mirror as she tried to pick out broken glasses from her face.
"I didn't expect her to just jump on you and attack…" Leon said.
Meg remained quiet,
"But I'm glad you got her good and alive, that must be the pride of Bathory family as the most feared tormentor, yes?" He said.
Meg still quiet,
"There, don't be all quiet on me… say something…" he said.
"Honestly, I'm feeling a little strange as I fought her…. it's like she is not what I expect her to be…" Meg said.
"Have you ever taste her fist?" He asked.
"No, but I've tasted a punch of another Chimera…and I swear it was a lot more painful than her fist…" Meg said.
"Maybe it because she is pregnant, right? After all, she loves her wife more than herself… she wouldn't use much power…." He said.
Meg sighed,
"I doubt that…" Meg said.
"Gah, you're just being paranoid…" Leon said before he sat down and turned on the Television. He tried to surf the channels but there's only one channel that is available— it's a picture of Arisa glaring into the screen with her glowing eyes,
"What the hell with her? It's very creepy to glare on screen like that…" he said,
Meg turned around,
"Ah, they must be trying to turn all ghouls into soul food… be glad you're not a ghoul or you'll be turned into one…" Meg said.
"Tch! That means your armies don't do anything good… what a waste, I thought your vampire lord friend will do any good…" Leon said.
"He should be a soul food too by now… I suggested him to join the attack… guess he just didn't expect someone can be clever enough to wipe out his all-out armies with one glance…" Meg said.
"Wow, you're really a cruel murderer… you didn't warn him about that?" Leon asked.
"I didn't expect that too, guessing the smartest person I expect is in a terrible condition right now…" Meg said.
"Haha, I like you… Now since you've amused me enough, I'll go make mother Lilith proud..." Leon turns off the television,
"You're going to execute her now?" Meg asked.
"Of course, before she changes her mind and breaks everything… but-ah, either way, if she is gone, I can have her heart and mother can have a chance to get that Mistress-to-be again…" Leon said.
"If I may suggest you to wait for a bit…. I don't feel right to do it right away. There's still so much strange things about her that bothers me…" Meg said.
"Nah—you're being too slow. We're facing our victory right now… we cannot delay it or it will escape from our grab…" Leon said before he left.
Meg sighed,
"I have no responsibility if you fail…" she said before she continues tending herself.
The underworld,
Eli carried Nozomi as she walks across the beautiful road with glowing rivers and trees around the area. Nozomi still gripping tight into her as she moaned painfully,
"Hang in there, Nozomi, there should be an Inn nearby, I can clean up your wombs… but it will be painful…" Eli said.
"I'm fine with that, Ericchi, but… are you fine with this? I mean…for me to abort your gift…" Nozomi said.
"You didn't do it… he did…" Eli replied.
"But still…. I'm the one who drank it… I just didn't expect him to give me it…" Nozomi replied.
"If you told him that it's a mistake to make the baby, of course he will do that… he, Lilith, and Eve are born as mistakes, they don't like to be mistake so they don't want anyone else to be born as a mistake too…"
"Oh…yeah…. I kind of told him that…" Nozomi said.
Eli sighed, she keep on moving with Nozomi on her arm.
"Ericchi, I have a few questions…" Nozomi said.
"What is it?" Eli asked.
"How do you know I'm here…?" Nozomi asked.
"I can feel and sense you—no matter how far we are…" Eli said.
"Then, do we still have this…'unbreakable' bond?" Nozomi asked.
"Of course…" Eli replied.
"But… it's aborted…." Nozomi said.
"What do think about this unbreakable bond?" Eli asked.
"It's…uh…a bond as parents of a child?"
Eli giggled,
"Unbreakable bond isn't simply because you have made a child with someone, but it's also from a promise that you've sworn to yourself, a promise to be faithful and to protect your love… I thought we agreed that I'm the dorky one, not you…" Eli said.
"Why am I dorky? I'm not dorky!" Nozomi pouts cutely.
Eli giggled again,
"You are… Dorky Nozomi…" Eli said.
"Then you are double dorky…" Nozomi said.
"I can be quadra dorky if you want, but right now, I'll be the clever and strong Elichika for you…"
Nozomi smiled,
"Do you just like to look dorky and stupid for me?" Nozomi asked.
Eli smiled playfully,
"What? I thought it was you who taught me to act like that… it's fun though so I can't complain…"
"I never taught you to eat a plastic chocolate…" Nozomi said.
"You suggested me to!" Eli protested.
"I also never taught you to stuck your horns to the door…"
"You surprised me!"
Nozomi giggled.
"B-but either way Nozomi! Tell you what…. I am who I am because of you… you saved me from my deadliest sin… you take me down from my pride before it's too late, showing me how life truly is and holding me when I'm down…" Eli said.
"Sweet talking now?" Nozomi replied playfully.
"I'm serious, honey…." Eli replied.
"Ok, so it's serious talking…" Nozomi said.
"Yes, very serious…" Eli said.
"Are you sure to say that to me?" Nozomi asked with a suggestive smile,
"Of course, I know who you are and no one can lie to me about you… why would I doubt it?" Eli said.
"Because darling, I'm a nightmare dressing in a daydream…" Nozomi said teasingly.
"I'm sure you are a nightmare at times, but isn't it exciting when routine gets boring? Perfection isn't simply a stack of success in one book of life…there's also you… you are my perfection…" Eli said,
Nozomi blushed,
"There, Ericchi, you shouldn't flirt too much or I'll be really demanding you to love me…"
"Go on, I shall grant you everything you wish… Honey…"
The Inn;
Eli carried Nozomi to the room that they rented. It's a room with warm lights and belts hanging around the huge comfortable looking bed, a stack of sex tool and leather fashion placed neatly around the room,
"See? Told you the room is going to be fun…"Nozomi said.
"This is a standard SM room in our world, you'll see more things if you go to the central town, but you won't be staying at inn if you ever go there… you'll be staying in my house…" Eli said.
"Is your room fun?" Nozomi asked.
"No, it's just comfortable..."
"Spoilsport…" Nozomi said.
Eli chuckled before she placed Nozomi on the bed.
"Now… we should begin the cleaning…" Eli said as she grabs Nozomi's clothes,
"Be rough…." Nozomi said.
"I don't have much energy for that, even though you already stopped to drain me…I still haven't recovered…"
"Then suck me…" Nozomi demanded,
Eli sighed before she just strip her clothes roughly and quickly,
"Ah— that's a good start! Ericchi…"
Eli pushed her deeper to the bed and started out with a kiss on her mouth—sucking and licking her aggressively, Nozomi reached her hands to Eli's horn, pulling her closer to herself as she enjoys her mouth being dominated by her.
They rolled around their bed as they tighten their embrace, letting out soft moans. Without Nozomi knowing, Eli has grabbed a belt that hanging loose near them,
"Nozomi….I hope you don't mind if I discipline you with this…." She said,
"Why? Am I being a bad girl for wanting you— even though I have, stomachache right now?" Nozomi said playfully.
Eli chuckled,
"I'm trying to take them out for your sake, honey…. And you've been trying to change my focus…" Eli said.
"Then—tie me with anything you have, darling…show me that you can tame a wolf like me…" she smiled mischievously.
Eli replied with a gentle smile before she started her domination from locking her wrist on the belt she grabs.
The clinic, very early morning;
Maki and some other workers tidying up all the things after the ghouls are gone and situation returning back to normal. Maki got a few scars on her body, though it just needs to be cleaned up with a few medicines to make it recover— also not to forget to take out some splinters off her body.
Eve, Rin, Hanayo, and Niko taking their rest on the sofa along with a few workers who worked so hard last night, Arisa helped Maki to do some after work while she is at it.
"hey, Arisa… can you help the second floor? I think they will need your management…" Maki said.
"I've sent all arrangement to all service centers in specific floors, the workers are doing it according to the usual list you have in your history…" Arisa replied.
"You're good at this…" Maki said.
"Thanks…" Arisa replied.
"Are you studying this kind of thing?" Maki asked.
"Mmm…no..not really, I just have a few things that I need to do in the past so I kind of need to study something like that…" Arisa said.
"Still awesome… but I guess that just what I expect from Eli's sister…" Maki said.
"Speaking of her…. I've talked to her before she gone to somewhere…" Arisa said.
"What does she say?" Maki asked.
"She said, after everything under control, she wants all the µ's members plus Lilith and Eve to gather at our home to talk about a few things…" Arisa said.
Suddenly, Eve screamed out of nowhere. It wakes up Rin, Hanayo, and Niko,
"W-whoa?! Eve?! What's wrong with you?!" Niko said.
Eve tried to calm herself.
"You surprised me-nya!" Rin said.
"Eve? Are you ok?" Hanayo asked.
"I…I'm sorry…. but… I feel like something is aching me so badly…." Eve said.
"Are you tired? I think we farmed enough soul food to help you recover…" Maki said.
"No…that's not it…. Something is wrong…" Eve said.
Everyone flustered before they turn at each other, wondering what it might be…
Ayase family's front yard, morning;
The police carried a human sized cage that covered with thick leather fabric. They placed it near the front door.
"See Meg? This will be very interesting… this way, she will know who is the strongest one and kneel before me…." Leon said.
"Like I said, I feel something is off and you're being too eager to get the heart… we could've used her as blackmail… we can act smarter but you decide to act fast… you should've known it's not wise to do so…" Meg said.
"And Like I said, I want the heart of alpha werewolf so badly… she might change her mind and fight back seriously last night… we all will be screwed up…" Leon said.
"Aren't you an alpha werelion? Where's your pride as a king? I thought you supposedly to fight her like a champion…not a coward… One doesn't show one's might from dominating over the weak but victory over the mightiest…" Meg said.
"It's called acting smart… not coward… That's the rule of the jungle… the strong will dominate over the weak… I don't know who the hell say that kind of thing to you but it sounded like a bullshit to me— just an excuse to not enter a battle…" Leon said.
"Sorry, but the one who said that is indeed a powerful one— might even be mightier than the strongest alpha werewolf…" Meg said.
"Bah…nonsense… Once I eat the heart of hers, I'll be the strongest… but first, I'll have to tidy up the mess and prepare my throne… Mother won't be happy if she visits me with all the mess in my place…" Leon said before he left Meg along with the police that work for him.
Meg sighed again.
"If only I didn't promise her to take care of that stupid boy… I would already have put his head on the chopping block…." Meg mumbled as she approach the cage that covered with thick leather fabric.
"I know this isn't her… she can't be that weak…A werewolf fist can't be weaker than a common satyr…" she said as she picks the edge of the leather fabric.
"What kind of stupid that he—…." Meg paused as she lifts the leather fabric.
"….No…." she said weakly before she falls on her knee. A tear fall from her eyes, trailing down through her cheeks,
"…Leon….. if I tell you this…. will you be as hurt as me?" she smiled pathetically as her eyes glued to the figure inside the cage….
