IV. Girl and Vampire
The temperature seemed to be getting lower and lower. Mina, who was sitting on the bench, let out a sigh. The sigh she let out was white. Even her fingertips seemed to be frozen in the cold air. She continued to shrink her body to endure the cold.
"So cold…"
Mi Na felt like she was going to freeze. She had always been thinking about the beauty of the human world, but the cruel reality made her feel very depressed.
"I really want to go home…"
"Squeak-"
At this moment, the heavy wooden door of the church suddenly opened slowly. Snowflakes blew into the church along with the cold wind, causing Mina to shiver.
"Is it a Holy Angel Beast?"
Mi Na stood up and walked to the open door, but she found no one outside.
(Maybe it was blown away by the wind…)
Without thinking too much, Mi Na was about to close the wooden door. Suddenly, a white egg that was emitting a faint glow rolled into the church from the outside and stopped at Mina's feet.
"What is this? An ostrich egg?"
Mi Na curiously picked up the white egg and began to observe it.
"It doesn't seem to be an ostrich egg…However, it's so warm..."
Mi Na held the egg in her arms and felt a warmth pass through her body, driving away the cold.
She felt that her body was much warmer.
"Could this be the digital egg that the Holy Angel Beast mentioned…"
Mi Na quickly realized that the egg in her arms was no ordinary egg. It must be a digital egg. At the same time, she had a new question in her mind.
"However, why did the Digger Egg roll from the outside to me?”
It felt as if someone had deliberately arranged this.
"Chirp ~~~ Chirp ~~"
While Mina was confused, a few golden fairies that had appeared in front of her flew into the church and circled above her, as if they were trying to send a message.
"What do you want to do?"
Looking at the Digital Fairy hovering above her, Mina's face revealed a trace of panic. However, she was still afraid of these cute little fellows who had brought her to this strange world for no reason.
"Leave quickly! I don't want to believe you!"
Holding the Digimon Egg tightly, Mina shouted at the Digital Sprite in fear.
"It's all because of you that I came to this strange world! Don't make things difficult for me anymore! I want to go home!"
"Chirp…Chirp..."
After hearing Mina's words, the few Digital Elves looked at each other. One of the Digital Elves suddenly flew in front of Mina and held her hand without permission. The other Digital Elves pushed Mina's back as if they wanted to take her somewhere.
"What are you doing? Let me go!"
Mina, who was holding the Digger Egg in one hand, allowed the Digger Sprite to carry her away from the church. She ran further and further away. Mina really wanted to shake off these annoying little guys. He had planned to resist a few times, but his body did not seem to belong to him. He could only continue moving forward.
They didn't know how long they were forced to guide Mina until they reached a very remote corner. The digital elves then asked Mina to stop.
"What an old house…"
In front of her was an old house that did not fit in with the bustling city. Mina did not understand why the Digital Elf had brought her here.
"Chirp! Chirp!"
The digital sprites flew to the door and urged Mina to open it.
"I know!"
Mi Na impatiently pushed the door open and entered the house.
Seeing the girl enter the house, the digital sprites nodded in satisfaction and flew away.
The room was very dark. Walking on the wooden floor, the surrounding air seemed to have frozen.
“... Who is there…"
In the dimly lit room, Mi Na walked carefully, afraid that she would encounter another accident.
“... Sigh, that's..."
When Mina walked into an empty room, she noticed a young man lying on the sofa.
The men were dressed in medieval noble clothes, with a blood-red cloak and a red mask on their faces.
He just lay quietly on the sofa with his eyes closed.
Looking at the man, Mina's eyes widened slightly. She took out a card from her pocket and compared it with the man lying on the sofa.
"Vamdemon (Blood-sucking Magical Beast)"
Perhaps it was out of curiosity or some other emotion, but he should be the dangerous Digimon that the Holy Angel Beast had mentioned. However, for some reason, Mi Na did not feel any fear when she saw him. Instead, she had a good impression of him…
Mina slowly approached the blood-sucking beast, afraid of waking him up.
The blood-sucking demon beast was indeed a vampire. Although its face was pale, it seemed to still have the warmth of life. Its lips were also bright red.
It's still very similar to the image of the legendary vampire
"Ah…! He's seriously injured."
After approaching the blood-sucking beast, Mina noticed that his body was covered in terrible wounds. He looked really painful.
"Oh!"
A soft moan came from the other party, causing Mi Na to jump in fright.
The blood-sucking magical beast revealed a pained expression.
“... What should I do…It must be very painful…"
There were no medical supplies in the room to bandage his wounds. Mina began to worry about the situation of the blood-sucking demon beasts. Moreover, the weather was really cold. He must be even more uncomfortable in the cold since he was seriously injured.
"Oh right... Digital Egg…"
Mi Na noticed the white Digger Egg she was holding. The Digger Egg was emitting a faint warm glow to drive away her chill. She looked at the Digger Egg in her arms and then looked up at the Vampire Beast. Mina placed the Digger Egg next to the Vampire Beast, hoping that the warmth of the Digger Egg would drive away his cold. At least, she could help him.
"I'm sorry, I can't help you bandage your wound…However, the Digger Egg will definitely not make you feel cold…"
The Digger Egg was still emitting a faint glow. Under the influence of the Digger Egg, the blood-sucking demon beast's expression did not ease, but instead became even more uncomfortable.
※※※※※
The scenery he had seen before.
Above him was a blood-red sky.
There were countless spears by his feet.
This was the ruins of war.
The wind that carried dust was moving through the forest of spears.
Ten or twenty was insignificant.
A hundred taels of silver was nowhere to be found.
However, no matter what the actual number was, since it was impossible to count, it was called infinite.
Countless spears pierced into the ground, and the corpses of angels were all hanging on the spears.
This scene.
It was like an execution ground.
"No one can deny our existence…"
The Evernight Lord, who was dressed in noble clothes, looked coldly at the angel's corpse on the spear with his red eyes.
The cruel war was not over yet. For the sake of his own beliefs, no…It was the faith of his compatriots, and the Evernight Lord had never given up.
He had long since left the Sanctuary blessed by God, and had already decided his own fate from the time of the so-called wrong evolution.
His own kind had been cruelly killed by the angels. That was right, this was war. War did not require the so-called compassion.
“... Come on... Let's see the real hell…"
It didn't matter anymore…If his compatriots were killed by the angels, then he would bring out the final value of his compatriots.
"My fellow countrymen…Turn into my strength. Even if you hate me, I am willing to bear your hatred…"
Countless black bats flew out from the Evernight Overlord's side, and his subordinates were all devoured by the bats and turned into the Evernight Overlord's power.
The Evernight Lord's body slowly grew larger, and finally turned into an undead demon with a blood-red body. He used his rationality to exchange for powerful strength and began to kill.
Until the end of the war, the Evernight Lord did not die in battle as he wished.
Fellow countrymen, honor, and close friends…He had lost everything…
(What an annoying dream)
The blood-sucking magical beast closed its eyes and thought in annoyance.
Just as he was about to throw this annoying memory to the back of his mind, a faint holy aura appeared beside him. It was familiar but annoying.
Then, the blood-sucking demonic beast suddenly opened its eyes and grabbed the uninvited guest's neck with its thin black claws.
"Cough cough…"
Mina struggled with all her might, her face showing a pained expression. If the blood-sucking magic beast exerted even a little strength, Mina's neck would be snapped at any moment.
“... Humans…?"
When the blood-sucking magic beast noticed that it was strangling a young human girl, it could not help but be surprised. It quickly let go.
The girl, who had finally obtained oxygen, panted heavily and looked at the blood-sucking demon beast with an innocent gaze.
“... You're too much…"
The girl was not afraid of him. Instead, she began to blame the blood-sucking magical beast.
" This is the digital egg of a Kirubi…"
The blood-sucking monster sat up and noticed the white Digger Egg beside it. It looked at Mina in surprise, but at the same time, it remained vigilant.
"Human girl, do you know what this is? Why did you send the Digger Egg to me?”
The blood-sucking magic beast's red eyes examined Mina.
"It was the Digital Fairy who guided me here.”
Mi Na answered honestly.
"Digital Elf…The ancient ancestor…"
Hearing the girl's answer, the blood-sucking magical beast understood something and suddenly laughed.
"Hmph hmph"
"How interesting…The ancient ancestor actually guided the evil Night Overlord to the right fate and even used a human girl…This is so interesting!"
“......”
Not understanding why the blood-sucking magical beast was laughing, Mina looked at him in confusion.
"Human girl, don't you understand the consequences of your actions?”
The blood-sucking magical beast looked at Mina with a dangerous gaze.
"Your blood will be sucked dry by a notorious vampire like me at any time. We dark digital beasts are evil beings, and we won't let the weak off.”
"Even if you escape death, your actions have violated the bottom line of that hypocritical angel. He will not forgive you. Do you think you will still be saved?”
The blood-sucking magical beast was disappointed when it saw the girl's terrified expression. Not only was the girl not afraid of the blood-sucking magical beast, but she bravely looked into the blood-sucking magical beast's eyes.
If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely be afraid of this monster that almost killed them.
"I won't be controlled by any of you!”
As if venting her dissatisfaction, Mina raised her voice and shouted at the blood-sucking magic beast.
"It's just that the Digital Fairy came here for no reason, and then inexplicably got involved in the war between you guys, and was inexplicably guided by fate!”
"Although I don't know what fate is…But I'll make my own decisions!”
The blood-sucking beast that was scolded by Mina was surprised to be silent for a few seconds, but soon, a happy expression appeared on its face. This brave girl had piqued its interest.
Especially that pair of eyes that were filled with determination, as well as the pure faith that would not be shaken by anything. He seemed to see his past self. In his distant memories, when the blood-sucking magical beasts were still Digo beasts and demonic beasts, they also had firm eyes and pure faith.
In the past, he did not believe in fate either. He believed in his own choices.
"What an interesting little girl. What's your name?”
"Mina, Mina. Albareya."
Mi Na said her name.
"Is that so…What choice do you intend to make? Mi Na."
The blood-sucking magical beast looked at Mina with interest and asked.
"What choice?"
Mi Na asked.
"Because of the guidance of the ancient ancestor, you came to this world and did something that went against the angels. Even if that angel was a so-called righteous digital beast, he would not forgive your actions. If you don't want to be involved, you can leave this place immediately and pretend to be a victim to be seen by the angel. Let the angel hate me even more. I won't see through you.”
The blood-sucking beast spoke the truth from Mina's perspective.
"This is a battle between us. There's no need to let unrelated people interfere.”
"That... You're talking about the Holy Angel Beast, right? We've met before…"
Mina understood that the angel the blood-sucking beast was referring to was the Holy Angel Beast.
"Indeed, the Holy Angel Beast has a righteous heart. He saved me, but he was also worried that I would encounter other dangers in an unfamiliar world, so he asked me to hide in a safe place. He also promised that he would find a way to return to my original world…"
"But…"
Mi Na lowered her head slightly, but her expression was a little awkward.
"The Holy Angel Beast once told me that you're an evil digital beast…I don't think so."
"Ridiculous."
The blood-sucking magic beast was surprised by Mina's words, but it also found it ridiculous.
"Because... Just now, you specifically reminded me how to avoid being misunderstood by the Holy Angel Beast and even said words that made the Holy Angel Beast hate you as much as it wanted."
Mi Na's voice was very soft, hiding her shyness.
"Although I don't know what happened between the two of you, I think there's really no need for you to fight, so... I think "
"How foolish."
Because of the girl's innocent thoughts, the blood-sucking magical beast's eyes were very cold.
"Light and darkness, angels and demons, are destined to be enemies since birth. There were too many reasons to be hostile, and the final result was just to follow the essence and kill each other.”
"I understand."
Understanding that her words were childish, Mi Na easily compromised. After all, she couldn't interfere in the grudges between others.
“... That... Your injuries."
Mina wanted to change the topic, but she noticed that the wounds on the blood-sucking demon beast were starting to heal themselves. Soon, the wounds on its body seemed to have never existed, which surprised Mina.
"Hmph, looks like the domain I created is working.”
The blood-sucking demonic beast's eyes flashed with a faint mocking look. Everything was within his expectations.
"Domain?"
Mi Na didn't understand what he was saying, but she felt that it wasn't anything good.
"You don't need to know about this."
The blood-sucking magical beast did not intend to explain.
"Buzz!"
The digital egg that was placed at the side changed its intensity from time to time, as if it was attracted by something.
As if he understood what it meant, the blood-sucking monster took the Digger Egg and walked out of the house without hesitation. Mina followed behind him in confusion.
"Hmph, you're here?"
The blood-sucking magical beast muttered to itself.
"What's wrong?"
Mi Na continued to ask.
The blood-sucking demon beast ignored Mina's question. Its red eyes under the mask moved between Mina and the thick fog, as if it was thinking about something.
"This is your last chance. Leave immediately.”
"Leave? Where should I go? There was clearly nothing in this world…Even the way to go back..."
Mina didn't understand why the other party suddenly asked her to leave. She had enough of being alone in this strange and empty world. This would only make her more uneasy.
After all, Mi Na was only a seven-year-old girl. It was impossible to achieve the so-called independence, and it was an age that needed to be cared for.
"Humph, that's really a pity."
With a disdainful snort, a large number of bats flew out from the Vampire Cloak and pounced towards Mina.
"What are you doing? Stop!"
Mina stretched out her arm to block the bats. There were too many bats and she could not chase them away.
"Ya-!"
Mina cried out in alarm. Her body was lifted off the ground by a group of bats. The blood-sucking magic beast also flew into the air, and the bats under its control brought Mina to its side.
Ignoring the girl's fear, the blood-sucking magic beast looked expectantly at the thick fog. The figure of the angel was getting closer and closer.
This time, he was confident that he could defeat that angel.
