Our opponent is only one noble vampire. It shouldn't be difficult because the four of us won in numbers.
But, this one vampire is not like other noble vampires. He was too strong for a noble vampire. Apparently, he was much stronger than the vampire named Nebula who attacked us that night.And again, he was quite clever even though he was outnumbered.
His strength was so great, and also his dark Manna aura was extremely dense. If expected, he is almost equivalent to a vampire named Zuan who became our ally.
"He was stronger than I expected" said Gale, putting up defensive horses.
"I agree, he's too strong for a common noble vampire" I said.
"Yes ... That's right," Hughess agreed.
"So what should Fiera do here, Brother Chezie?" On the other hand, Fiera was completely unreliable.
Vampires with brown hair continue to attack and attack. So far, he attacked suddenly with a melee attack. With his Blood Sacrified resembling a glove, his attack power felt like a high-end magic attack.
"Fiera, above you!!"
The vampire again appeared from an unexpected direction. This time, he emerges from the top after Fiera who has lost her shelter.
Quickly I used my "Puppet" magic to pull Fiera back. Fortunately I still managed to do that. Too late for a bit, Fiera must have been killed because of that senseless attack.
"You okay, Fiera?" My toot.
"Y-yeah, I'm sorry Fiera kak Chezie ...." Answer lethargic.
"Utilizing the area to cover its shortcomings. He's really clever" Gale said.
"In addition, the magic "Puppet" Brother Chezie did not work on him at all. It's really bad" Hughess said.
"Yes, you're right" I replied.
After his attack had just missed, the vampire stood looking at us from afar. I don't know what he's thinking, but he doesn't seem to be resting.
"I'm going to go forward. You attacked him from a safe distance" Gale said.
"If anything happens, I'll pull you back. Remember that, Gale," I said.
"Yes, I'm counting on you Chezie."
As a result of his attack, the field we were fighting on was full of holes. Each time it attacked, it left a crater at the site of its attack.
The only way to overcome his abilities is to always keep his distance. His physical strength was terrifying, but he almost never used long-range attacks. In that case, I hope Gale will be fine.
Fiera tried to attack him from a distance. Hughess and I helped by relying on the Gollem that Hughess made. While Gale advanced with his magic sword attacking from the front.
Hughess conjures up some ground Golems, moving in to disturb the vampire. In fact, Hughess alone could control all those Golems. Only, the accuracy and movement will be very rigid. That's why, I helped control some Golems by using my "Puppet" magic. With this, their movements will be more organized, and more flexible.
"Fire Spirit: Inferno."
Magic streams appeared flowing down Gale's sword. Instantly, waves of burning flames appeared overlaying his long sword.
"Divine Step."
A shining white aura enveloped Gale's body. Thanks to that light, Gale's speed as well as agility increased drastically. It is not magic, but a skill.
For a knight, skill is one of the most important abilities that must be possessed. Without skill, one could not be considered a knight. Easy, skill is the magic of the knights.
Gale sped away his fire-coated sword. The vampire only held him back with one hand, but he was able to keep up with Gale's speed and shrewdness in using the sword. Not only that, he was even able to easily avoid the Fiera laser shot fired from his blind spot. Plus, he could crush the Hughess Golem with just a few punches. He was too strong to be faced with half-strength.
But at least, with this kind of strength we can hold it back.
"Stay pushing him like that Gale" I said.
Hughess further multiplied his Golems, besieging the vampire with dozens of stone Golems. Fiera continues to mine using Unlimited Rays. And Gale continued to urge him with his magic sword attack.
Under these circumstances, the vampire should have started to get cornered and weakened.
"impressed. Looks like your cooperation is pretty good. At a time like this, I'm Kuvra Antonuette feeling aggrieved ...." After a long fight, the vampire finally began to speak and tell his identity. "I think I need to be more serious ...."
The vampire stomped his feet to the ground, sending himself crashing into the air. It seemed, he was intending to escape from Gale who continued to hold him.
"Don't think I'll let you go!" Shouted Gale.
Hearing Gale's words, the Vampire named Kuvra looked at him sharply.
A blood red aura again appeared enveloping Kuvra's body. Realizing that, Gale immediately retreated away. We didn't know what he was going to do, so stay away from him before knowing if that was our best option.
The red aura continued to thicken, leaving Kuvra's body uninvolved, drowning in the smoke-like aura. His aura grew bigger, then split into two halves.
From those two parts, Kuvra's physical form began to look back. Instantly, we were stunned.
Kuvra has split herself in two.
"Hey hey, are you kidding me?" My speech. "One of them has been so difficult. And now we have to fight two?"
While we were still dumbfounded, the two Kuvra immediately came forward to attack us. And that made each of us part into two parts. Me and Hughess were blocked by one Kuvra. While Gale and Fiera were also blocked by the other one.
Right now, we have absolutely no idea what this ability is, but it doesn't seem to be a clone. There is a possibility that both of these bodies are equally genuine. If so, this is quite troublesome. No, this is very, very troublesome. Because if these two bodies are real, it means we have to kill both of them at once to be able to defeat them.
Killing just one is so hard, I don't think we can kill both of them at once.
But right now, with me and Hughess at least we can hold him back. As someone with control magic, being on a team with an alchemist who could create a Golem like Hughess was an advantage. After all, in Magic Assosiation we are also one of the best duets.
"Hughess, focus on making and strengthening Golems. Make at least 5 Golems stronger than before" I said.
"Well, as always?"
"Yes, as always," I replied. "Summon: Griffin!!"
While Hughess created several Golems, I summoned one of the best monsters I've ever caught. A Griffin from one of the forbidden mountains of the Siberian kingdom.
Griffins are one of the rare creatures that are very dangerous. It has a body like a lion, with wings and a head shaped like an eagle. This one I call has a height of 5 meters. For ordinary humans, this size is already quite large.
"Please, Griffin!"
With my direction, Griffin flew up and attacked Kuvra with his claws and large Beak. He attacked from the air, while the Golems made by Hughess attacked from the ground. Of course, the Golems are under my control.
Realizing that, Kuvra sped up her movements. He was able to resist, as well as dodge attacks from Griffin. He also began to keep his distance from the Golems by flying into the air. Kuvra was beyond the reach of the Golem, and Griffin was unable to attack him alone.
"Hughess, modify!" My yelling.
"All right!"
After my order, Hughess changed the Golem model she had made to be slimmer. He also added magic-covered wings, as well as an iron spear in each one of the Golems. Now, those Golems looked like an air force of the ruler of the heavens, the Divine race in the ancient legends.
The air Golem army now began to fly, attacking Kuvra with their spears in the air. Griffin attacks are also becoming more effective. Thanks to my remote control, the Golems can move like real humans. They are able to attack, dodge, and even defend. Even if some of them were destroyed by Kuvra's devastating attack, Hughess could easily fix them as they were. It was like seeing an immortal army. With this, Kuvra could be urged.
But, since then there's something strange about Kuvra's behavior. He gave no expression against us. His gaze was empty, as if full of thoughts. Is he maybe a fake? No, if he's a fake there's no way he can make plans by himself. I'm sure he's been watching us ever since. Like he was deciding who he should be dealing with first.
"Sacrified Blood: Mark."
Without us noticing, Kuvra disappeared from the siege of the Golems and Griffins. He immediately appeared behind me, who was still shocked and unable to do anything.
"Sister Chezie!!" Shouted Hughess, awakening me to that dangerous daydream.
As soon as possible I jumped back away from him. I took out my two daggers as a means of self-defense. From the looks of it, Kuvra was targeting me.
Kuvra came forward to attack me empty-handed. Even so, I was able to notice there was a strange red aura in his hands. What power did he bring up? What might be some kind of ability to increase attacks?
I avoided, and continued to avoid. I can't strike back, he has absolutely no gap in his defence. Even with the help of the hands of the ground that Hughess had raised to help me, he still had not retreated.
A moment later, a Kuvra strike hit my shoulder. The attack was like a human blow, but somehow I felt something strange about the attack. Just because of an empty-handed attack, my shoulder could be injured. It doesn't hurt too much. But after the attack hurt me, Kuvra suddenly shut up and stopped attacking me. What does this mean?"
Supposedly, this is my chance to strike back. But, my body was instantly unable to move. I wasn't even able to speak, as if something was holding back my every movement. And as I glanced at my hands, a strange tattoo appeared to spread to every part of the body. Whatisthis? What the hell is going on?
"You've become my puppet, miss with the magic of controlling things" he said.
my hand suddenly moved on its own.with a signal from my hand, it was able to control Griffin and the Golems. Instantly, Griffin and the Golems retreated, then moved about to attack towards Hughess. I was about to scream to tell her to go away, but my mouth couldn't move. It's bad, so Hughess could have been hurt by my own strength.
"You ... What did you do to Chezie, you son of a bitch?!" Ask Hughess. He looked trembling, filled with anger. "Don't be as hearty as controlling her!! I'm killing you fucking!!"
to be honest, this is the first time I've seen Hughess vent her anger on someone, and right now, that anger is coming out at Kuvra, who is currently controlling me.
"get back the Chezie I love, you son of a bitch!!"
and thanks to his uncontrollable anger, I could hear all the words that were long hidden in his heart.
really, I really didn't expect any of this.
