âI can use warp skills to get that barbaric lady. It would have been so easy.â .medrectangle-3-multi-146{border:none !important;display:block !important;float:none !important;line-height:0px;margin-bottom:15px !important;margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important;margin-top:15px !important;max-width:100% !important;min-height:250px;min-width:250px;padding:0;text-align:center !important;}
âAnd?â
Rin eyed him.
âWhat will you do?â
âSpear her one more time!â
He said without hesitation.
âShe has no more resurrection runes. She also can use 8 more Fragarach Orbs at most. My Gae Bolg is an efficient Noble Phantasm with minimal mana usage. I can swing my Noble Phantasm hundreds of times.â
âHonestly, I didnât think it was possible.â
Luvia chimed in.
âI didnât think there was someone who could force that berserker woman into retreat.â
âYeah.â
Hinagiku sighed.
âI am amazed that we drove her away.â
âMan, she is like Berserker except she has brains and brawns.â
Mikoto grumbled.
âWe would have run away if Yan didnât intervene.â
âThatâs why I said I wanted to finish her off.â
Wu Yan mumbled.
âWhy did we have to let her go?â
âIf we did kill her, it would attract more trouble.â
Rin rubbed her temples.
âKilling an Enforcer, especially someone as powerful as herâŠâ
âYeahâŠâ
Luvia placed her cup down.
âThere are many Enforcers in the Mageâs Association. If a bunch of them came at you, even if theyâre weaker than Bazett, it would still be a mess, right?â
âYes.â
âBut, It just doesnât feel right to let the violent girl run off like that.â
âWhy are you frustrated?â
Rin shook her head.
âYou made her waste two Fragarachs and her Resurrection runes. She can only make 10 of those things a year so I imagine it would be costly and time-consuming to make one of those. You basically waste nearly 3 months of effort for her.â
âAgainst that brute, you came out unscathed. Even the Mageâs association would be shocked to hear your results.â
âIn any case, she knows she canât fight you. At least, until her next preparations are complete, she canât come after us.â
âThe Class Cards.â
Rin rubbed her head again.
âBazett knows he has 6 cards. She is going to target them. She also knows we lost the Archer and Lancer card.â
âThose people are going to give us hell once she reports this.â
Luvia said with a grimace.
âCrapâŠâ
âWorse yet, she is probably going to go after the seventh card.â
Rin growled.
âIf she encounters Kuro then it would be bad.â
âYeah.â
âLooks like we need to tell her to lay low.â
âSo many problems!â
Rin shrieked in stress.
âWhen is this going to end?â
âUghâŠâ
âAt least, before we get the Eighth Card, I donât see the light at the end of the tunnel.â
âRight.â
Rin hammered her palm.
âSince she is after the cards, she should be going after the Eighth Card too, right?â
âNo, she doesnât know about the Eighth card.â
He rubbed his chin.
âThe Mage Association only knows about disturbances in this city, they canât pinpoint the location, only the admin of this city knows the location.â
âShe is going to be fixated on the seventh card (Kuro) rather than the Eighth card.â
âBut, wonât Kuro be in danger?â
Hinagiku said with a worried tone.
âIf she knows Kuro is the Seventh card, she would stop at nothing to kill her.â
âYeah, we need to tell Kuro to stop using Archerâs powers for now.â
He pursed his lips.
âWell, if she does go after Kuro, I donât care what the Mageâs Association will do, she will die!â
âOnly you can say something like this against Bazett.â
Rin bitterly laughed.
âYou sure kept a tight lid on your abilities.â
Rin said. Meanwhile, Wu Yan pulled out a chair.
âIf you have a question, just ask, donât keep it to yourself.â
âOkayâŠâ
Rin continued.
âAre you a Dead Apostle?â
Luvia stopped sipping her tea too.
The air turned still.
Dead Apostles are vampires, the enemies of mages and humanity.
They need to feed on human blood to sustain themselves. To the general populace, vampires are figments of imagination, but mages know them to be human-hunting supernatural creatures with longevity, superhuman regeneration, and abilities.
Only those who know and face them know the deadliness of Dead Apostles.
This is why they assumed Wu Yan was a Dead Apostle.
He survived a direct blow to his heart and he had golden eyes. No humans can do that.
Wu Yan denied it.
âI am not a Dead Apostle.â
âReally?â
Rin didnât entirely believe him.
âI am related to them.â
He answered.
âBut, they are far below me.â
âFar below?â
âDead Apostles are emergency rations for True Ancestors who preyed on them. Dead Apostles are like the familiars Dead Apostles make out of humans, mere food.â
He scratched his cheeks.
âYou donât lump yourself in with food, right?â
âTrue Ancestor⊠Dead ApostlesâŠâ
Rin continued.
âWait, are youâŠâ
âWell.â
He grinned.
âYou will know in the futureâŠâ
Rin and Luvia exchanged a look.
Meanwhile, Hinagiku and Mikoto chuckled at the sides.
