Chapter 79 - 79: Who Will Save Her? (6)
n
n
nAurora's POV
n
nWhat???
nHow????
nI'm pretty sure that guy turned into a zombie first!!!
n
"Tsk. It was a good match...
" that demon guy clearly avoided my eyes. He turned his head to his right, even in the pitch-black void, I could see his shameless face clearly.
n
"Release the soldiers!!!
" I yelled at him since we both knew who won that battle. It was to cover his defeat by making it a tie.
n
"Fine...but since it is a tie, I need something in return.
"
n
"What...what do you want??
" I covered myself taking a few steps away from him, I gulped seeing the smirk on his face.
n
"HAHA, why would I want that body??? Human is disgusting!!
" said someone who used to be a human as well, I clicked my tongue and fixed myself standing in front of him.
nBefore he could make any suggestion, I talked to him first about what I wanted to give him which will benefit both him and me,
"How about I make sure that no one will come here again??
"
n
"Why do I feel like I'm the one at disadvantage??
"
n
"Then what more do you want??
"
n
"I want that necklace.
"
n
"This necklace??
" the necklace almost became unrecognizable from a butterfly necklace to a broken wing butterfly because of me overusing its power.
nI couldn't even lift an average rock with my current strength.
n
"Fine...
" I will be free from the superhuman strength too, but when I handed him the necklace, a part of me felt like...it was hurt to see the necklace was given to someone else.
nThe superhuman strength was never a curse to me, it was more like a blessing. But I no longer could use it. So what's the use of wearing it??
nAnd I soon become the demon anyway...maybe I should run away to the countryside like the protagonist to live peacefully there.
nHaa...
nWhy did I say like I was going to die??
n
"Human, why are you crying??
"
n
"I'm not.
" the demon wore the necklace and the butterfly pendant on the necklace restored to the original with some strange magic he used.
n
"I admit, it was fun playing with you all.
" the demon guy, even though he was a jerk, he was only toying with us with the stupid illusion, but none of the soldiers died.
n
"Did you set them free??
"
n
"I did. They're teleported to the capital.
"
n
"How did you teleport them???
"
n
"Emm...I dropped them from the sky.
"
n
"...
"
nI made the face 'Are you crazy?' at the demon.
nBut I'm pretty sure the magician in the capital won't let those soldiers fall to their death. I was relieved that he could keep his words.
nJust when I was relieved, a chill rushed down to my spine like my body became electrified, the demon in front of me kneeled on one of his knees to the god-like being behind me.
nI couldn't turn myself to face that person...more like that demon. It was lucky that the demon Lucas already sent the soldiers away from that demon.
n
"My lady, you're back.
"
nNo doubt about it, she is clearly Valencia, the third rank legendary demon.
n
"Lucas, who is this woman?? I smelled a girl's scent.
"
n
"My lady, use my eyes.
"
n
"Ah, right...I could do that. I keep forgetting about my magic spell these days.
"
nDemon Contract: Demon's share eyes
nLucas's red eyes glow inside the dark, I got goosebumps from it as he stared at me from head to toe and the voice behind me mumbling,
"Pink hair, blue eyes, are you Aurora??
"
n
"Yes...
"
nWhat's she going to do to me??
nI already gave the necklace to her underling, I'm useless!!!
nAh...let's just die here...
nIt's been a good time.
nI'm pretty sure Marinette is going to be fine. I don't have to do the mission anymore either. Instead of living the rest of my life as a demon, let's just die here.
n
"...I'll kill you.
"
nI couldn't even gulp the saliva that was stuck between my throat because of the intense fear from the front and behind of me let alone breathing.
n
"Ahaha, just kidding.
"
nWhat??
n
"You're Marinette Unnie's friend, right?? She got a message for you.
"
nI finally turned to her as she mentioned Marinette, and what's with the unnie thingy???
nShe recited something in the air, she kept looking at her palm and then wrote the letter in the air. It was pretty cool.
n
"Lucas and I can't see what's written here. This message is for you. Please read it.
"
n
"Ah...thank...you...
"
nI bowed thanking her even though her eyes seemed like she was watching television instead of my face. I forgot that she was blind.
nI looked up to the letter in the air floating above my head.
n
nMarinette must be thinking I was still at the capital, and what's with the memory thingy?? She said I was supposed to say it out loud.
nShould I say it right now??
n
"Memory Manipulation off.
"
nAckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
nA scream from the demon Valencia almost broke my eardrum as I had to crouch to cover my ears from the soundwave coming from her lip.
nMarinette appeared in front of me with the high-level magic circle, I could see the memory pieces which have Valencia in them fly inside Valencia's head at once.
n
"What did you do??!!!
" Lucas rushed to his lady while I didn't spare any time after realizing what I shouldn't have done. I grabbed Valencia's heavy sword and left the portal immediately.
nMarinette, what did you just tell me to say???!
nI hid behind the rock in front of the purple portal, I finally returned to the real world.
nI grabbed the horse and put Valenica's sword behind my back and made a run for it.
nThe ground was shaking, as I was riding on the horse under the heavy snow, Valencia stepped out of the portal and jumped toward me at the speed of light.
n
"That wench, how dare she manipulates my memory???!!! Where is she???!! Urgh...
" she tripped and fell down but Lucas helped her back up restraining her from coming after me. He nodded as the sign of telling me to run away.
nI owed Lucas once that time. Riding to the capital would take a long time, and Valencia would catch up to me any second. I rode on the mount Windigo, my horse gave up on me as it was freezing as we climbed up the mountain.
nI had no magic anymore, and Valencia already caught up to me, she walked toward me slowly reaching her hands out. I could spot the northern empire inside the globe barrier but the height down was very tall. I would crush by the fall if I jumped from the mountain.
nThe cold wind blew my hair covering my eyesight of the mad Valencia who gritted her teeth with the eyes which could shoot holes inside my body.
n
"Give me back my sword.
"
n
"No!!!
"
n
"What??? You insolent. I'll kill you, burn you and toss it to the demon's dog.
"
n
"...well, you're nothing without your sword...and you have to get the body before burning it.
" I grinned with the tears dropping on my cheek as I opened my arm and jumped off that cliff.
n
"You b*tch!!!!!
" I could hear her yelling as I was falling down faster and faster.
nI passed through the barrier, it was such a beautiful empire. I knew why Marinette wanted something belonging to Valencia, it was to make Tristan's mission to success. The only thing to prove Valencia is dead is to show something that belongs to her to the emperor.
n
"Intruder!!!! Intruder!!!!!
" the army of dragons was flying toward me as my body passed the barrier of the empire.
n...it took a really long time for my body to hit the ground which made it really annoying. I just wanted to die quickly so that I won't have to prepare for so long for the pain I'm going to face.
nCritical mission: Save Tristan. No more danger is affecting the target's life. Congratulation, you completed the mission.
n Complete healing
nLeveling up system is activating!
nLevel up!
nLevel up!
nLevel up!
nYou shall choose your reward!
n1. Prediction Magic
n2. Sword Master
n3. Weather Magic
nIsn't that a little bit overpowered??
nThe inside of my body, all of the pain seemed to be vanish. There was a screen in front of me saying a bunch of stuff saying stat and something like that. I'm currently level three.
nSince when did a romance novel become a system novel like this???
nI choose the number three option and all the information about the
nThank goodness, I choose that.
nWeather Magic: Wind!
nMy body turned to wind bringing the sword with me, I flew along with the wind in the air and descended inside the empire making all of those dragon knights confused.
nMy body felt light as the wind reformed to the human body.
nI obtained the new magic, the magic of my own. It felt really great.
nMy happiness didn't last as the new mission popped up.
nDiscover the secret of the northern empire. Mission failed: Punishment.
nPhew...just a punishment this time...
nPunishment: Death.
nAre you freaking kidding me???!!!!
nI shouted to the rounded moon as it was the stupid system. It was night time so I decided to shout nonsense to vent all my anger out.
n
"I won't die!!! I won't dieeeeeeeee!!!!
"
n
nThe library of the northern empire,
nEveryone went to sleep as it already passed midnight, but two women were still reading books from different floors of the building as one was reading history and one more reading the magic of transformation.
nAurora yawned and fell asleep with the history book on her head, the librarian at the receptionist desk shook her head seeing another homeless person slept inside the library again.
nMarinette inside Diana's body yawned but in the opposite of Aurora, she read all the books in the library using her memory magic to enhance her reading and memorizing speed.
n
"Alright, time to go!
" she blew off the fire lit inside the lamp and sneaked out through the big window on the top floor of the library.
nTo be continued....!
