This is the secret of how she just crushed Dead Apostle.
Chapter 244 No one knows this night
night.
Snow keeps falling.
As if wanting to bury the earth,
Aozaki Touko was wearing a white velvet coat and walked lightly down the aisle. She did not stay up late to study Magecraft as usual tonight, nor did she spend the cold night with Irisviel.
She was going to meet someone, someone who had a very special meaning to her.
Soon, she came to a door and pushed it in without asking.
——Click.
In the room, a black-haired girl seemed to have heard the commotion and turned her head slightly to look at the door. Her obsidian eyes were deep and emotionless, as if she had expected that Aozaki Touko would come to the door.
"..."
Without saying a word, Aozaki Touko walked to the black-haired girl and sat down. She skillfully picked up the black tea on the table and started brewing it. After a while, the aroma of tea wafted in the air, and then she got a cup for herself and Azu.
Then, she picked up a cup of black tea and handed it to Azu.
"It's cold, let's have a drink to warm yourself up."
"..."
Hearing this, Kuonji Alice hesitated slightly, stretched out her slender hand to take the black tea, and sipped it in silence, her delicate little face expressionless, as if she had no intention of speaking.
However, the coldness emanating from her body seemed to be somewhat diluted by the warmth of the black tea.
Seeing this, Aozaki Touko smiled slightly, took off his coat and put it aside, picked up his own cup of black tea on the table and held it in his hands, looking at the beautiful snow scene outside the window in a daze.
The blazing fire in the fireplace burned the wood and made a crackling sound.
The rising heat warded off the chill that permeated the outside of the castle.
"... It's very late, you should go back."
I don't know how long it took, Kuonji Alice glanced at the moonlight outside the window, and said in a cold voice, "I'm going to sleep later."
After that, she picked up the ordinary books on the table and read them silently, as if she planned to read a book before going to bed, or she planned to use her attitude to isolate herself to drive away the intruders.
In short... her intentions were obvious.
However, Aozaki Touko did not follow the instructions. In fact, if she really did, it would probably be a problem with her head, because sometimes what people say does not match their true inner thoughts.
Especially as she knows Kuonji Alice very well, she knows how to choose.
"Speaking of it, when we first met, it seemed that we spent one night together like this. The black tea was even tasteless, but we didn't leave until we couldn't stand it any longer, so we slept in the Western Mansion."
She gently sipped the cold black tea, her voice was soft and had a strange rhythm, just like meeting an old friend after many years and remembering the past time, and there was a strong feeling in reminiscing about the years.
"... It's not like you're refusing to leave."
Kuonji Alice frowned slightly and said in a slightly angry voice, "If it weren't for Touko and your grandfather was Magic User, I would have let you know the consequences of breaking into the witch's workshop."
When she was a child... Aozaki Touko often ran to her house, sometimes even staying for a whole day, and the time was extended step by step, until one night Touko she did not choose to go back, and stayed in the Western Mansion until late at night.
She had no choice but to leave Aozaki Touko in the Western Mansion for the night. After that night, Aozaki Touko stayed in the Western Mansion more frequently until Aozaki Touko settled down in the Western Mansion.
It's like a robber... testing the bottom line step by step, invading her world step by step, and forcefully occupying an important part of her world.
By the time she reacted, Aozaki Touko had become a part of her life.
"Haha... maybe this is the benefit of Magic Second Generation."
Aozaki Touko chuckled, "If it weren't for my grandfather's reputation, I wouldn't have dared to break into the witch's workshop, but I was actually very careful during the process."
"I didn't feel it at all."
Kuonji Alice glanced at Touko and said in a cold voice, "What I feel is a Magic Second Generation, who breaks into other people's lives unscrupulously just because his grandfather is Magic User."
"How can you say that..."
Aozaki Touko held up the warm black tea with her slender hands and showed a bright smile, "Every time I go to the Western Mansion, I bring gifts. There are always pastries and beautiful dolls made by my mother. This is probably a normal social interaction to make friends."
"I would be happier if you could leave me some quiet space."
Kuonji Alice shook his head slightly, with no expression on his delicate face. However, I don't know if it was an illusion, but an invisible wall seemed to be disintegrating between her and Aozaki Touko.
The temperature inside the room slowly warmed up and became much warmer.
"No, I will be very lonely that way."
Aozaki Touko shook his head and muttered, "In Misaki City, apart from studying Magecraft, I have no other friends at all. The only one who can communicate with me is you, Azu."
"So, even if Azu you hate me, I will still rely on you."
"It was like this in the past, and it will be like this in the future."
Her words sounded like coquettishness, but they contained an unquestionable domineering tone. Rather than expressing her feelings, her words were more of a unilateral declaration of her decision.
The proclaimer's own future is irresolvably bound to Kuonji Alice.
"You... are really greedy."
Kuonji Alice sighed slightly and put down the book in his hand, "Why didn't I realize that Touko you are such a domineering person?"
"Now I am Magic User... even if I am overbearing, it is within the allowed range."
Aozaki Touko smiled slightly and raised her head with some pride. She was not ashamed that she had too much force to occupy more. Or maybe she wanted to become Magic User just to satisfy her greedy desire.
In short... the rules of the current social structure no longer apply to her.
"..."
Kuonji Alice stared at Touko with her black eyes, and then had no choice but to look away. This obvious intention to rely on force and disobey the rules has now been clearly reported, and she has nothing to say.
She is just a weak witch... how can she resist an existence like Magic User?
"..."
Seeing this, Aozaki Touko smiled slightly and took a sip of black tea. She felt relieved inside. She was afraid that Azu would be in trouble if he drove her out of the room with a cold face.
However, it seems that things are progressing smoothly now.
"... I'm going to sleep~"
At this time, Azu picked up the black tea on the table and drank it in one breath. She immediately got up and walked towards the bed. She did not choose to drive Aozaki Touko out. Anyway, if she was not there, Touko would leave on her own.
And Aozaki Touko blinked and sat silently on the sofa without leaving.
On the other side, Kuonji Alice soon fell asleep peacefully, with the sound of even and gentle breathing, as if he had truly fallen into a deep sleep.
There was some sound of wood cracking coming from the fireplace in the house. Under the blazing firelight, the light and shadow spread to every corner of the room, swaying with the flames like dancing.
After about a while, Aozaki Touko drank the black tea in the cup and stood up, walking towards the bed. Yes, she did not choose to leave the room, but got into Kuonji Alice's warm bed.
Her slightly cold body touched the soft but warm delicate body, and it was probably the slightly cold touch on her body that made the sleeping Azu's delicate body tremble slightly, and then she continued to sleep peacefully.
No one knows what happened next that night...
Chapter 245 The stage has been set
The next day.
A ray of white light appeared in the sky.
Aozaki Touko opened her eyes sleepily and found that the beauty who should have been in her arms was gone. However, the aroma of black tea coming from not far away meant something. She stood up and looked in the direction of the tea aroma.
Kuonji Alice I don't know when she was sitting alone on the sofa. She was wearing her usual home clothes, holding a cup of steaming black tea in her hand, and there were some freshly made biscuits placed on the table.
Judging from the craftsmanship, Irisviel must have made it himself and sent it over.
"Good morning, Azu~"
Aozaki Touko said lazily to Azu, and then she lay back on the bed again, because the warm quilt was saying, 'Oh, it's getting dark so early, it doesn't matter if I sleep for another thirty minutes.'
There is no way, Quilt's words are too reasonable, so there is no need to refuse.
As for whether those Dead Apostles would attack her while she was sleeping, it was actually not a problem for her. She had reached the middle of the gene lock Fourth Order, and she was extremely sensitive to some causal matters.
If someone really comes to attack, they will feel it immediately and respond... Besides, she is not good at directing battles. If she runs around and directs blindly, it may lead to bad things.
So let's wait until the people below make a judgment.
She just needs to make some key decisions.
"..."
On the side, Kuonji Alice glanced at Touko with his black eyes, and then withdrew his gaze as if ignoring him. She was still very familiar with Aozaki Touko. If it was not necessary... Touko always liked to do things on time.
However, now that Touko life forms are beyond human beings... is sleep still necessary for her?
"Touko, it's almost time to eat."
After a while, Kuonji Alice drank all the black tea in the cup, looked at the bed with his black eyes, and lightly opened his red lips. "About tonight's Dead Apostle civil war, they plan to have a good discussion with you."
Yes, tonight's Dead Apostle civil war is not a daytime war. The reason is actually easy to understand...Dead Apostle's thing is very sensitive to sunlight, although high-end Dead Apostle has a hundred ways to deal with such trivial matters.
However, some Dead Apostle are still not qualified to stand under the sun.
Aozaki Touko and others do not want to fight during the day because of the principle of protecting the mystery and not losing it. What they want is to resolve the battle silently.
Therefore, even if there was no communication with each other... the battle time was decided to be at night.
"Actually, there is no need to discuss anything~"
Touko stood up, yawned, and said with a smile, "Wait for the evening... there will be a fight between high-end combat forces, and we will be able to tell who wins and who loses. Next, we just need to reduce the damage as much as possible."
Although she said this, she walked out of the bed honestly. Then, she took out a hair tie from somewhere and tied her long, messy orange hair into a crisp single ponytail.
At this moment, her breath became solemn and valiant, and it seemed that the person lying in bed just now was not her.
"..."
Seeing this, Kuonji Alice stood up and prepared to leave the room, while Aozaki Touko glanced at the snowy scene outside the window, a smile appeared on her pretty face, and then left the room with light steps.
Now that the stage has been set up, Tevam·Rottweil, the next performance depends on your performance,
I hope she can see an interesting farce.
other side.
In Dead Apostle's castle.
A meeting started by the top Dead Apostle.
"The stage has been set, everyone is in place, and the next story will officially begin. As important characters in the story, I hope you can show off your skills to the fullest."
In front of Round Table, Crimson Lord, Tefanmu·Rottweil was wearing a gorgeous white robe, looking majestically around the people sitting around Round Table, and the confidence in his eyes couldn't help but increase.
There are not many people who are qualified to attend the meeting. Basically, they are all Dead Apostle who are quite capable.
Three of them must be officially recognized as the King of Dead Apostle, because the status of the three Human Order is not inferior to him in theory, and their status is even nobler than that of the King of Dead Apostle.
Black Wing Lord, Glensogg Blackmoa, stands at the top of the Dead Apostle world and is the oldest Dead Apostle. He once pursued Crimson Moon's subordinates and possesses abilities that are extremely threatening to Dead Apostle.
Chaos of the Swarm, Nero Kaos, a being known as the "immortal hybrid" by other vampires, has a terrifying vitality that is shocking. It is said that he has 666 instructions and can face it calmly no matter how powerful the opponent is.
The last one is also a person with a nobler status than being the king of Dead Apostle.
The true ancestor named 'Arcueid·Brunestud' is an absolutely noble and powerful existence. Even the king of Dead Apostle must respect him. He is an absolute existence that surpasses a life form like Dead Apostle.
Rather, she is the eater of life like Dead Apostle.
In the past...Dead Apostles were just spare ingredients for her clan.
The status is similar to that between humans and domestic animals.
"Now that we're in a place like this, there's no room for us to hold each other back."
Nero Kaos said coldly, "However, I would like to ask if Magic User is strong. At present, we still don't know what her combat ability is. If we can't grasp it well... it may lead to heavy losses."
"..."
On the side, Black Wing Lord, who is as human as a bird, also spoke sternly, "With Gems as an example, there is really no way not to face this threat. That woman named Aozaki Touko already had the ability to defeat True Ancestor Dead Apostles before she became Magic User. It is unimaginable how much her strength will increase now."
