- At the same time, location: " Thousand Eyes " 2105380 Outer Gate Branch.
After the white yaksha confirmed that the shop was closed, she walked along the corridor to the west side and came to a place deeper than her room. She visited a house in the courtyard. Although it was a VIP room for special guests, the people inside were not guests.
The person inside was an officer of Thousand Eyes, just like the white yaksha. He had flaxen hair and wore a snakeskin shirt. He was a thin man. The man in snakeskin probably asked for two women to serve him while he was waiting. He asked the woman who deliberately wore a kimono in the style of a courtesan to pour him wine while smiling at the white yaksha.
"You actually made me wait for so long. Leaving his comrades from the community aside to receive a guest, it must be a very important guest, right?”
The white yaksha scratched its head with white hair and replied disdainfully.
"Humph, what are you talking about? What stupid words. A mere nouveau riche actually dares to ask my girls to serve you. How bold! Alright, you guys! That's enough. Let's go back and deal with the closing matters.”
"Yes…Yes.
The women put on their messy kimonos again and left in a hurry.
"What a pity. I only enjoyed it because they said that I could accept any request. After all, Perseus didn't have the kind of girl who was elegant and gentle. Can you sell them to me on the basis of our friendship as officers?”
"... Will I respond to your rude behavior with a duel? Mr. Luos."
White Yaksha's white hair began to tremble, and her voice contained obvious anger. For the white yaksha who placed his comrades first, the only meaning of the request to " trade money for his companions " was to humiliate him.
"I'm sorry. If I offended you, then I'll apologize.”
"Humph…Then, why is Young Master Luos, the successor of Perseus, looking for me?”
The two of them glared at each other. The reason for Luos 'visit was obviously because of Leticia.
However, even if this didn't happen, there was still a barrier between the two of them.
Although White Yaksha and Luos belonged to the same community, there was a huge difference between a subordinate and a vassal.
The original " Perseus " wasn't a subordinate of " Thousand Eyes ", but a community that originated from a knight in Greek mythology.
A long time ago, the knight Perseus, who was thought to have ascended to heaven after enjoying his life and became a constellation, was actually invited to this place, the world of Sandbox Court. The name " Perseus " meant that the members were the descendants of Perseus. In the Sandbox Court where the asura gods and buddhas gathered, there were many people with specific legends like them.
After a long time, due to the destruction or division of the original organization, there were often actions to seek protection from other communities.
White Yaksha snorted and opened her favorite fan.
The white yaksha had no intention of having a proper conversation with this rascal who could easily tarnish the flags of the two goddesses and valued the stench of copper more than his reputation.
"The crucial Leticia is no longer here. Hmph, you're almost two steps too late.”
"Of course I know about such a small matter. Anyway, I know where she went. I know everything about her past.”
"…Then why did you come here? Couldn't he just go and bring her back immediately?”
"I've already sent my subordinates over. It won't be long before we find them.”
Luos stuffed the tea into his mouth, looking strangely calm. This strange attitude gave White Yaksha an uneasy feeling.
"You…you didn't get someone to attack 'No_Nome', did you?”
"What attack? What a rude way of saying it. It's to punish 'NoName' who stole our belongings! Hmm, let's use this name? Anyway, even if they destroyed a nameless community, no one would be angry, right?”
“……”
The white yaksha widened its eyes in shock.
"Pfft."
Then, he burst out laughing.
"What? What's so funny?”
"Hmph hmph hmph ~ Hahahahahaha ~~~! No, no, no. It's a topic on my side. Don't mind it, don't mind it ~ Mm, what about Tian Fa? Very good, very thoughtful ~! Go ahead, young man! There was once an interesting fellow who was famous for his red horns and three times the speed. He said that the ones who created the New Era were not old people!”
"…White Yaksha, are you finally suffering from dementia?”
Looking at the crazy appearance of the white-haired and kimono loli, even Luos couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"No, no, no, how could it be? We can still work hard for dozens of centuries. Well, if he attacked 'No_Nome', he would be fine as long as he was prepared.”
With a mysterious smile on his face, the white yaksha, who was obviously watching a good show, covered the corners of his mouth with his favorite fan.
"You will bear the consequences, silly boy."
===================================================
Just as Black Rabbit and the other two were about to return to the building from the central courtyard, something unexpected happened.
Just as they raised their heads, a brown light shone over from afar.
"That light…is that the Gorgon's (Snake Haired Banshee's) light? Not good! We've been discovered!"
Along with her anxious shouts, Leticia stood in front of the three of them as if she was protecting them from the light.
The black rabbit, who understood what this ray of light was, let out a sorrowful scream and stared into the distance.
"A flag with a snake-haired banshee's head…? No…No way! Please avoid it quickly! Lady Leticia!"
" Sakuya!!!!"
The owner of the name that Leticia had called out at the last moment was enveloped by a brown light the moment she hugged herself for the second time.
"Stupid, stupid-! Why must you sacrifice yourself for me, who is already someone else's possession?! No_Nome's future is in your hands!”
Naturally, Sakuya, who was petrified by the snake-haired Banshee's Eye, couldn't hear Leticia's hoarse shout. Sakuya, who had turned into a dark gray stone, seemed to be at ease after protecting Leticia. She smiled calmly.
"Found it! The vampire was protected from petrification!”
"Capture her immediately! If those nameless people were in the way, they would all be killed!”
From the direction of the light, a large group of men wearing flying shoes with wings and looking like knights swarmed over.
"Hey, hey, hey, you guys are talking too much!!!”
Sixteen Nights, who was already in a bad mood, revealed a very unhappy and ferocious smile. Her eyes were like those of a wild beast.
"This is so nerve-racking. This is the first time I've been treated as an accessory since I was born. Should I clap and celebrate? Or should he follow his anger and teach them a lesson? Black Rabbit, which one do you think is better?”
"In…in any case, please escape into the headquarters! Lady Leticia!"
"…No."
She stubbornly shook her head and rejected the black rabbit's request.
After all, Leticia was the property of " Perseus." Naturally, she could not defend herself for running around without her master's permission. In particular,"Perseus" was a community that served as the cadre of "Thousand_Eyes". If there was a dispute, the consequences would be dire.
“……”
But it had nothing to do with this. His wine-red eyes, which had been giving people a half-asleep and half-awake feeling, were revealing true anger.
“『Perseus』……! If it was just me, then I didn't care what kind of treatment they gave me. However, you actually dared to do such a thing to our innocent compatriots…You have already made up your minds, right?”
"A mere possession still dares to resist its master!”
"This is a large business deal that was made possible by canceling the game. I definitely won't let you escape this time!”
"The trading partner is a country-scale community. Even if we 'Perseus' do our best, we will definitely send you to them outside of the Sandbox Court!”
"-you mean outside of Sandcourt!"
The black rabbit's sharp cry broke the stalemate between Leticia and the Flying Knight.
"What exactly happened? Vampires, the 'Knights of the Sandbox Court' can only withstand the sunlight in the city of the Sandbox Court! But you actually want to bring such a vampire out of Box Court City…!”
"This is a deal that our leader has agreed on. Outsiders shouldn't talk too much!”
The knight responded coldly and flew into the air with his winged shoes.
"Lady Leticia!"
"…I'm sorry, Black Rabbit."
Leticia's bitter expression explained everything.
She probably already knew the terms of his deal. She could not even leave the sun-sheltered roof after leaving the Sandbox, so she would not be able to meet her former compatriots again. That was why he had offered up his own divine persona and found such a weak chance to return to his former home.
Self-sacrifice--
"Preposterous…That's right, preposterous! It actually made the innocent and honest Moon Rabbit, who was even praised as a symbol of sacrifice, so angry to this extent…!”
"-true, true villains.”
In front of the furious black rabbit, a voice as cold as the light of the full moon came from above the Flying Knights.
" From the moment I came to the Sandcourt, I have decided to follow the rules of the Sandcourt and resolve all disputes in the form of the Game of Gifts. In the Boxer Court, where both parties could compete in a mutually agreeable manner, savage battles and killings were extremely vulgar things…That's right, before I wanted to destroy an ugly thing like this.”
Sakuya stood on the branch of the cherry blossom tree, which was probably more than 300 meters tall and took up the entire wide passage. Her eyes were emotionless as if she was looking at an insect.
Sakura Fuzuuki, who was blown by the night wind, exuded a much colder aura than usual. Under the reflection of the moonlight, she was like a blade that chilled one's heart.
"…Eh? Sakuya…?"
Looking back and forth between Sakuya who was petrified and Sakuya who was standing on a giant tree not far away, Laeticia's anger disappeared.
Only then did she realize that the petrified Sakuya in front of her was nothing more than a tree that had turned into a substitute.
"W-what is that tree!"
"I didn't notice it at all! Did it appear in an instant?"
In front of the cherry trees that blotted out the sky, the dozens of knights had no desire to fight at all. Although they claimed to be the descendants of heroes, the gifts they had were merely replicas. They did not have the courage to challenge the gift of the Gorgon's Light, which they did not know of.
"Hmph hmph hmph hahahahaha!! Happy, happy! Interesting, you bastard! I almost didn't see it when I dodged it. That tree is also growing super fast!!”
Excitedly shouting on the ground, Sixteen Nights immediately squatted down and jumped up.
"Pfft!"
He landed at a height that completely surpassed the Flying Knights. He stepped on the head of one of the miserable Perseus members and jumped twice, landing steadily beside Sakuya. The knight who was stepped on by him, Hades 'helmet (replica), shattered as expected. The knight himself fell straight into the ground like a missile.
"Count me in if you want to show off! It's not fair that you're the only handsome one. I even gave you the chance to be intimate with the vampire loli.”
"…Please help yourself."
The expression on Sakuya's face instantly fell as she shrugged.
Then, Sakuya, who had turned back to the group of 'Perseus' knights, gradually uttered cold words.
"Mirror Style, Moon Shadow Dance."
As if they were summoned by Sakuya, the night wind instantly intensified and brought up a large number of Sakura Flowers. Along with the sound of Sasha, the snow-like cherry blossoms followed a magical trajectory and turned into a tornado that gathered in Sakuya's right hand. An imperceptible aurora (aurora)-like color flashed through the pink tornado, and the cherry blossoms disappeared.
Then, it turned into the scarlet tachi.
The quaint blade drew a beautiful arc. It did not go through any postnatal carving. The light that was purer than the moonlight extended to the elegant handguard and grip. With small cherry blossom petals as embellishments, black and red intertwined, forming a subtle and fatal fear.
"Before I can control myself, I will bring your shame, fear, and Leticia back.”
He pointed the tip of his sword at the group of knights. It was clearly just an ordinary cold weapon, but the flying knights trembled in the air as if they were facing a terrifying weapon.
"No matter who your leader is, make him remember: We,'No_Nome', will gamble our dignity and glory to take back our compatriots who are above all else. And when that time comes, he will pay for his blasphemy-"
Sakuya drew an arc in the air while holding the gorgeous tachi that was famous for its Kagetsu Kyuuka.
" I, Huang Xiao Ye, swear on this 'Sword that Severing THE Knot OF Fate-The Sword of Alexander-'”
The dark clouds in the starry night sky that covered the sky were instantly cut apart and disappeared.
What was hidden after that was the now completely exposed Perseus.
