An Unexpected Guest (5.3K)

"Waaah... please don't bully me."

Yotsuba Mahiro: "..."

Natsuki Minamiya: "..."

Aya Sengakuji: "..."

The three of them stared at Avrora Florestina, the same thought creeping into their minds.

Is this truly the original form of the twelfth familiar of the Fourth Progenitor?

Could Jou Akatsuki have unearthed something strange?

Afterwards, Yotsuba Mahiro, along with Est and a somewhat reluctant Avrora Florestina, left the office to go and find Misaki Sasaki Natsuki Minamiya called a "stupid dog," to register as a demon.

After the three left, the office fell into a brief silence, which was followed by a soft laugh a moment later.

It was the voice of Aya Sengakuji.

"Hehe, Natsuki, it's really not easy to see you suffer such a loss."

Natsuki Minamiya gritted her teeth and said:

"Aye, do you want to start a fight?!"

The next morning.

Just as he was leisurely washing up and changing into slightly formal clothes to go to the private Saikai Academy for registration, he suddenly received a "job" assigned to him by Natsuki Minamiya.

"I was saying, 'Natsuki -chan...'"

"Don't call me Natsuki- chan!!!"

"Okay, okay, didn't you say I had to go to school to register today?"

"Not at the moment. A more urgent situation has arisen: a vampire riot has broken out, and we need a mage to handle it!"

"Uh... what level?"

"Vampires of the old days!"

"It's from the old era... I thought it was the True Ancestor. Natsuki- chan, are you sure you need me to take action?"

To be honest, he really didn't want to bother with people like this from the old days.

I'd be very interested in elders and nobles.

"Heh, enough with the chit-chat, go and handle it now, and don't forget our agreement! Also, don't call me Natsuki- chan!"

After saying that, Natsuki Minamiya hung up the phone.

Well, since this young lady has put it that way, a little exercise isn't out of the question.

He set off using the address sent by Natsuki Minamiya.

Itogami Island, located in the very center of the Pacific Ocean, about 230 kilometers south of Tokyo, is an artificial island built with carbon fiber, resin, metal, and magic.

It has a total area of approximately 180 square kilometers and a total population of approximately 560,000.

Although the total population is not large, it is not small for a small island.

At that moment, when Yotsuba Mahiro arrived at the scene according to the address sent to him, he saw a familiar rampaging in the center of the street warehouse.

"Hahahaha--Devour them, Flame Lion!"

A man, or more precisely, a vampire, is recklessly wielding his magic, commanding magically conjured beasts to destroy everything around him.

It was a ball of flame, resembling blood, yet not blood, flickering like a mirage of pitch-black flame.

Immediately afterwards, the black flames transformed into a distorted lion.

The fierce roar was enough to shake the atmosphere, and the asphalt road engulfed in flames was charred black.

With just a flick of the tail and a charge, the splash of flames was enough to engulf the defenders, instantly burning them to ashes; it could even melt steel.

For a moment, the streets were filled with screams.

"Ha... I really shouldn't have any expectations."

Mahiro sighed softly.

With just one glance, he discerned the other party's true nature.

This is a D-type old-era vampire.

The term "D-class" refers specifically to vampires belonging to various bloodlines who worship the "Lost Warlord" as their true progenitor, and is particularly common in Europe.

They are also the vampire clan that most closely resembles the common perception of vampires.

However, this is a trivial matter.

"Hello."

Mahiro called out, immediately attracting the other person's attention, and then Mahiro to them with his finger.

The meaning is clear: come and have some fun.

The vampire, already enraged, was provoked in this way and immediately ordered his familiars to attack without saying a word.

Roar--!!!

The air trembled slightly as it roared.

The scorching footsteps left a trail of burning marks on the ground.

A wave of heat hit us; the intense heat from the familiar beasts could be clearly felt even from dozens of meters away.

But Yotsuba Mahiro simply shook his head, not even bothering to blink, as a faint Psion Light emanated from the surroundings.

"Antimatter Barrier"

Bang!

That was the sound of a familiar beast crashing headfirst into the wall.

The unruly beast was now imprisoned within a spherical, transparent barrier.

No matter how many times it was hit, it could not escape, and even the scorching heat was completely blocked.

"Varied..."

The man was astonished; no matter how he manipulated it or how he used his magic, the beasts were all imprisoned within the sphere.

Immediately afterwards, Mahiro activated the magic once again.

"The Nihility"

The beasts inside the sphere immediately stopped struggling and ramming, standing still like statues.

The next second, the familiar's body emitted an extremely dazzling light.

Boom!!!

With a deafening roar, an explosion occurred inside the sphere.

The familiars, originally constructed purely of magic, have now returned to their origin, transforming into the purest form of magic.

As easily as blowing out a candle flame, the familiar beast vanished completely, leaving only the scorched asphalt road behind.

"How could this be... my Flame Lion, my familiar, just like that, destroyed?!"

The man couldn't believe it.

The fear of losing his summoned demon caused the man to retreat a few steps in fear.

The next second, a mocking voice rang in my ears.

"Don't go! Let's keep playing, it's not over yet!"

"Gah..."

The man was grabbed by the neck and slammed to the ground in full view of everyone.

Boom!

The ground trembled slightly, and the once smooth asphalt road was smashed into a huge crater.

The garrison, who had originally planned to continue providing support, stopped in their tracks upon seeing this and dared not move forward.

They had previously received a message from Natsuki Minamiya saying that a new attack magic master had come to provide support, but they did not expect this new attack magic master to be so ferocious!

Not only did they imprison the familiars they couldn't handle in an instant and destroy them with a single blow, they also easily pinned a vampire into the ground!

It's important to know that vampires not only have long lifespans and powerful magic, but their physical abilities are also on a completely different level from humans!

"Wow, still alive?"

Mahiro his grip and discovered that his attack hadn't killed the other man. Although his neck was broken, it was visibly healing.

"Cough!"

The man coughed up a mouthful of blood, gritting his teeth and angrily said:

"... You brat, I admit you're good, but do you know who I am?!"

"What's it to me? Didn't your parents tell you who you were when you left the house? Oh wait, do vampires even have parents? They probably don't."

His self-questioning and answering thoroughly enraged the other party.

"Damn bastard! I am a blood relative of Demitoriye Vatler, a 'noble' in the War King's Domain!"

A terrifying magical power surged from the man once more, gathering as if to summon his familiars again.

"Oh, what's it to me? I don't know him."

Mahiro answered matter-of-factly, while simultaneously raising his foot and aiming it at the other person's chest.

"Well, you transformed into a demon in a public place and used your familiar in the streets. You violated the Sanctuary Treaty, so you are now sentenced to death."

Boom!

Without the slightest hesitation, and before the other party could even beg for mercy, he stomped down and crushed their heart.

The vampires in this world are not without weaknesses; just like in the legends, most vampires' weakness lies in their hearts.

Except for True Ancestor.

As for the words just spoken, they were naturally taught by Natsuki Minamiya, and the sentence of execution was added casually by Yotsuba Mahiro.

Arresting people is too much trouble.

However, everything happening here is currently under Natsuki Minamiya's surveillance.

"He annihilated the familiars of the old era with a single blow, and shattered a vampire's heart with sheer physical strength... Is this man really that strong?"

Her murmurs are gradually fading away with the sea breeze.

The first task was executed very successfully, practically perfectly.

Aside from the initial casualties, there were basically no other losses.

But this is just the beginning.

Immediately afterwards, Mahiro received another mission and rushed to the scene of the incident.

For the next week, such attacks occurred throughout Itogami Island, resembling a premeditated vampire riot.

I don't know what Natsuki Minamiya is busy with. Maybe she's using him as free labor and has simply handed over all the tasks to him.

He personally explored almost every corner of Itogami Island.

This meant that he hadn't had time to go to school to register this past week.

Seven days later, at dusk, the last rays of the setting sun shone on the streets of Itogami Island.

After suppressing the last riot, Yotsuba Mahiro dragged her slightly tired body back to Natsuki Minamiya's apartment with Aya Sengakuji.

After all, Aye is not yet able to keep a distance of more than one kilometer from him.

However, after spending this week together, he felt that the distance between him and Aye had narrowed a bit.

Aye, who used to be unwilling to get close to him and would even feel disgusted by being hugged, seems to have gotten used to his embrace after being bound by the Chain of Commandment several times.
