Black Iron Magician

Chapter 408 The Hospitality of the Delicate and Lovely Elf

The second daughter of the Irygal family, Veronica Irygal. Just like her appearance, she has an overserious personality, which is unusual since vampires often indulge in their desires, but her constant pursuit of high goals tends to force others to follow suit. She always imposes unreasonable demands and her words are harsh, so it can be said that she is obedient to her own desires in a way.

The whip, which is her weapon, is often used to punish others, and her handling is subtle and fierce. She also adds her Unique Skill, 『Painful Strike Hematoma』, in her attack. The severe pain caused by the whipping would cause the face to distort and the whole body to strain desperately to endure the pain. Any living thing with a sense of pain would do so. She uses her ability to take advantage of the gap created at that time. At the same time as tearing the skin with the whip, she lets her own blood enter the wound and completely assimilates it with the blood that’s originally circulating in the target. After transferring the blood to the entire body, she coagulates it all at once from within the body. The poor souls who receive even a single blow from the whip would turn into a blood-colored statute, with their expression and body expressing the intense pain they felt. Setting aside her skill, Veronica is an outstanding vampire who is no less powerful than the Great Eight Demons.

The sixth daughter of the Irygal family, Eliza Irygal. Like her mother, Maria, she has the appearance of a child, but even so, she’s more than ten years older than Lilyvia, the youngest sister. Perhaps because of this, she tends to mind about her appearance (especially a certain part of her), and often treats Lilyvia, who’s supposed to be younger than her, like an enemy.

However, despite her childish personality, she’s brutal and powerful. Eliza’s Unique Skill, 『Bloodless Decapitation』, prevents her attack from reducing the target’s HP below 1, regardless of whether they are decapitated or cut in half, as long as the attack is coated with her own blood. This ability is useful for capturing or interrogating the enemy without killing them. However, it has no further effect, and even if it doesn’t kill the target, the pain of being cut won’t disappear. Combined with her vicious habit of collecting parts she likes, Eliza is feared even by the higher-ranking monsters. It goes without saying that her atrocity is emphasized because she has a cute appearance.

If you say that the two of them suffered an embarrassing defeat, anyone living in the Crimson Country will laugh it off as a tall tale, or maybe they will accuse you of disrespect. That’s how unbelievable and unrealistic it is. However, that’s the fact.

(She easily got behind us…!?)

(Kyaha…. This is not funny! How is that even possible!?)

「What’s wrong, you two? You seem to be really surprised, eh? Did you lose something?」

Alezel laughed without any concern and fluttered her hand as if to provoke the two. She’s clearly making fun of them.

「「………」」

With this happening, Veronica and Eliza became more cautious of Alezel.

「Uwah, you really haven’t noticed? I thought that you were stupid, but to think that it’s this much. Don’t you feel any discomfort?」

「Discomfort? ……!?」

「N-No way!?」

Perhaps realizing the nature of the discomfort that Alezel was talking about, the two grabbed their maid outfits and skirts at the same time to check something. Then, both of them blushed.

「Fuhehehe. The glasses brat was wearing pretty pants and bra, huh. On the other hand, the small brat was trying too hard to look like an adult. You have to be at least as sexy as Lilyvia-han to wear these, y’now? Well, I will take them to make up for the inconvenience. It seems that they are going to be worth a lot of money as rare items~」

Pink and purple underwear were caught in Alezel’s hand, which she was fluttering a while ago. Needless to say, those are Veronica and Eliza’s underwear. Then, Alezel spins around the underwear with her both hands so that the two can see them easily. ‘President, that’s sexual harassment!’, it’s such a terrible scene that you can almost hear such an employee’s voice coming from somewhere.

Recognizing once again the reality they don’t want to admit, the vampire maids hastily tuck the hem of their skirts between their legs. They were more embarrassed than outraged.

「「Y-You――」」

「――Oh, you better not force yourselves to shout, y’know? After all, I stole your hearts while I was at it, so you will vomit blood if you do that.」

As soon as Alezel warned them, fresh blood came out of their mouths. Alezel stole their hearts along with their underwear. Without spilling any blood, the hearts are still moving on her hands. The high vitality of the vampires was surprising. But anyway, it was a disaster.

「Ooh~, you are still alive, huh. I guess 『Immortality』, the highest rank of the 『Regeneration』 skill, is the standard for you. You two only vomited blood even if you lose your hearts. You sure are ridiculous people, no, vampires, no, bird people~.」

「Guh…! Watch… your… mouth…!」

「Cough…! I will… definitely… get those eyeballs…!」

「And your eyes aren’t dead yet. Yep, nice guts. While I’m at it, I’m gonna beat you into shape. I wonder how long you can keep your pride and greedy belief?」

「「Die! You bitch!」」

After regenerating their hearts, Veronica and Eliza rushed at Alezel. Then, Alezel, who threw away the hearts and put the underwear in her pocket, also stepped forward powerfully in the air. Flowers of blood continued to bloom in the sky of Crocus, and it was one hour later that everything disappeared.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

「Haa~…. As expected of Maria-han’s children, they are really though~…. I don’t wanna deal with them again. It was tiring after all.」

Alezel powerlessly sat down next to the airship and wiped her sweat with the item she stole in the previous battle. In the end, the vampire’s blood didn’t touch her at all. However, since she was exerting her full speed for a long time, she couldn’t prevent from sweating like a waterfall.

「She was… intentionally… avoiding our blood…!?」

「How… did you know… about our abilities…?」

Finally, unable to keep up with the regeneration of their bodies, Veronica and Eliza fell to the ground. Their bodies have been divided into at least a dozen parts, and even moving their mouths is the best they can do. However, their maid outfits are almost intact that you can feel the useless pickiness of Alezel.

「That’s a matter of course, y’know? Information is as valuable as money for merchants. Your abilities that could be activated with your blood and your brutal personality, they are all in here. Don’t underestimate Quitet’s information network. Puh!」

Alezel pointed her finger at her own head and spat out. The vampires are quite a fraud in terms of appearance, but in that respect, this delicate and lovely elf doesn’t lose to them.

「Now, tell me everything you know. It’s up to you to decide whether you want to give sincere and useful information or to bleed more than that. Either way, I will dismantle you as I please.」

「…… Eliza. We have to… prepare ourselves….」

「Kyaha…. Fine, bring it on…. Alezel Quitet… the other sisters are… going to kill you…!」

The two are in a miserable situation, but their hearts are not yet broken. Alezel sighed while thinking that it would take a little more time, and she sensed a new presence above her head. Then, she looked up at the sky again while making a displeased face.

「Acha~. The reinforcement is too early no matter how you think about it…」
