Pseudo-Villaines

The Culprit (2)

"So, now that we're under siege, are we?"

The strange liquid rain had subsided a little, but it did not bring much change. Almost a third of the city's population is dead. Damn, Jeanne can't do anything now.

Jeanne decides to take her three sisters inside the restaurant where they had lunch before. Shady is in vain. But at least they can sit inside.

That's what Jeanne originally thought before five men wearing the cult symbol of salvation came and surrounded her. One of them was seen as the leader, seeing from how much mana and foreign energy were leaking from his body.

"Ah, we have the arrival of troublesome people again. Besides of... The magic circle that is under our feet makes the energy and mana ours sucked in a considerable amount and quickly."

Hearing Jean's murmur, Jeanne looked down. Sure enough, a blood-red magic circle with strange letters was under his feet. Jeanne felt that her mana was getting sucked in more and more.

"I'll give you two choices. Fight and you and the three people behind you will die. If you turn yourself in, the three people behind you will die but you will survive. Consider your options carefully, miss."

An offer from the leader of the people who surrounded her made Jeanne angry. The look on his face clearly showed that. Teeth grinding. Body vibrates.

Jeanne clasped her sword tightly. Although his mana was being sucked, he forced himself to drain his mana into the sword he was holding. Golden flames appeared on his blade. Without saying much, Jeanne swung her sword and breathed out her golden flames towards the members of the safety cult.

Seeing this, the leader of the group of members of the safety cult smiled behind the face coverings he wore. Easily, he fended off the bursts of golden flames that led to him. He survived. Unfortunately, some of its members were burned to ashes because it was too late to fend off and avoid Jeanne's golden flames.

"Cih, basic useless. How else, you made me not be able to make another choice. You guys, attack that woman but don't kill her! As for the other three, finish them off!"

"Jean, Careful!!"

Jeanne forced her body to move. He managed to kill three people who were after him, but the side effects of the coercion were very pronounced for him. Every time Jeanne tried to move her body, she felt slashed by hundreds of knives.

"Yes, I thought I lived here. It's so sad for me."

Unwittingly, Jean kills five men who are after her and her twin sisters. Jean accidentally sets up a barrier to Elyse and Elsie so they don't see how Jean smashes the heads of her enemies with just one grip.

"Relisse, Elsie. I'll leave Brother Jeanne to you, okay? I'll send you to the mother and sister's house. Be sure to stay there until you get back, okay?"

Jean undoes the spell that binds Jeanne. Perhaps due to finally being relieved of the pain, the girl immediately fainted. Jean gives her brother to the twins and deports them to a point she has already determined.

"Mother will probably be a little surprised to find out that the three cute girls are no longer here. It doesn't matter, as long as they survive, everything will be fine."

Jean looked back at her remaining enemy. His lips formed a wide grin.

"Let's continue the game, you vile monkeys."
