Chapter 428 The Best Spice

Riara’s body was split into upper and lower parts by the attack from the Doggan Staff. She’s a vampire, so the girls didn’t even think that it was enough to defeat Riara.

「!?」

A large amount of blood is released from the cross section of Riara’s body. It’s not a laser-type that focuses on a point, but a tsunami-type that swallows the field. Even before Haruna saw the tsunami, she reached out to the black hole she had just set up. With her command, the jet-black mass further strengthened its gravitational pull and now it is sucking the blood. The control is also perfect that it doesn’t suck allies. Haruna seemed to be determined to make no compromises in order to gain the upper hand in the battle.

「C-Come back, my lower half…!」

「I won’t let you!」

「Be careful! Each part of the body is moving separately!」

「Hey, wait!」

Riara tried to take advantage of the disturbance to fix her body, but Touko and Chinatsu intervened and prevented her from doing so. Touko faces the upper body, and Chinatsu faces the lower body, which leads to an exchange of fists against fists and katana against kicks.

Riara is moving her upper half and lower half separately against two level 8s. It seems that it’s quite hard to handle two at the same time even for Riara, so the battle seems to be equal.

(Crap, the blood that I released with Curly is sealed, and in the first place, it’s hard to aim from the cross section of the stomach. These two are not bad, and above all, my head and chest feel sick!)

Riara seems to be in more of a pinch than she looks, fighting the opponents in front of her and fighting unfamiliar nausea at the same time. Every time she receives Touko’s fist, the defense-ignoring damage accumulates, and every time Chinatsu’s katana touches her, the stress accumulates. This battle is giving a tremendous burden on Riara’s body and mind. Even though the two parts of the body are separated, the fact that they share the burden is a disaster. And then, she couldn’t just keep on with the two――

「――Sei!」

「Whoa!?」

Haruna, who had finished resetting the black hole, rushed in and blew away both parts of Riara’s body with her aiki. The two parts were mercilessly moved further away from each other to both ends of the kitchen. Plus, the impact was too much for a drunkard to take.

(P-Pony-chan!? That kind of impact is not good now…! I’m not kidding…! Wait, there’s also a black lump here…?)

The upper body of Riara was sent flying in the direction where there was no black hole. However, Riara’s body is being pulled so much that she has to use her wings to endure it. This is indeed Haruna’s Graviton Hole.

「In that instant, she created one on this side too…!?」

Reflect Fortress.」

A thick wall of light was set up in the middle of the cooking area. With this, Riara’s body was completely separated. It’s Chinatsu’s smart plan to wear down her mind and make the handling of her body become more complicated. Furthermore, the arrangement of the members is also switched, with Haruna and Chinatsu facing the upper body and Touko facing the lower body, to ensure that Riara doesn’t become accustomed to their fighting style.

「…… Honor Student-chan, aren’t you making too many walls?」

Chinatsu’s barrier is far more fragile than Maria’s barrier. But even so, there will be an opening if Riara tries to destroy it. She currently doesn’t have the composure to do that now.

「Jeez~…. I won’t die from bleeding, but I don’t want to increase my blood so much. Basically, I keep my blood low and keep my stomach hungry. That way, I can enjoy the blood deliciously, right?」

「Hunger is the best spice after all! I also use a lot of energy for that!」

「Haruna, you don’t have to seriously go along with her just because she’s talking about food….」

「I’m sorry, I couldn’t help it!」

Haruna unconsciously showed her cooking face, but she immediately switched back to the hunting mode. On the other hand, Riara’s state is completely different from before.

「It’s pointless no matter how much blood I let out, so I will just make my blood as minimum as possible. Yes, to the point of starvation…! Ugh…!」

Riara’s fangs, the proof of a vampire, protrude sharply. Her expression is different from the previous one, and she looks like a desperate beast. It seems that the change is also occurring in the lower part, and dangerous air is drifting from there as well.

It’s an omen that she, someone superior to the three, will attack them with no regard to her appearances. A starving beast is terrifying, and even more if it’s wounded. Far from a beast, the one in front of them is a starving vampire that surpasses even dragons. If they want to survive, they mustn’t make even a single mistake.

「Touko, be careful of her tail. She hasn’t used it so far, but it probably cuts better than a top-class sword.」

「Chinatsu, you too, don’t be fooled by the movement of her wings. She probably can move faster than me now. And Haruna, well… I think you don’t need any advice.」

「………」

Haruna is pushing the limits and sharpening her senses to deal with the threat in front of her. Right now, her eyes could only see the vampire to hunt.

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

A roaring sound echoed throughout Crocus Castle, followed by vibrations. It was so much even though the castle is reinforced by Maria’s barrier. It was easy to imagine that something terrible was taking place at the source.

「Oh, what a terrible noise and tremor. Is someone fighting somewhere?」

「Judging from the sound, it seems to have been going on for quite a while…. Maybe they met one of the sisters….」

It also reached the cleaning group B led by Hund, Therese, Weerel, Giorgia, and Gobuo. Hund and his group landed on the opposite side of Haruna’s group, and they are steadily defeating the vampires in their way while acting in a covert manner. However, they haven’t yet encountered the Irygal Sisters.

「It’s from the other side, huh. Judging from the direction, it’s probably Haruna-chan’s group….」

「If they stick to the list of enemies they can fight as instructed by Deris, I’m sure those three will be fine. Rather than that, we should worry about ourselves. We’re not strong enough to worry about the others.」

「I know. We’re on a battlefield full of monsters after all. Let us do our best to survive.」

「Umu, that’s the spirit.」

「Desuwa! (Low voice)」

「Gobuu, gobu gobbu.」

「Umu, as expected of Gobuo. Well said.」

「Desuwa! (Loud voice)」

「… Sorry, what’s he saying?」

In the cleaning group B, almost everyone can understand Gobunese.

「Well, he’s saying that the main enemy finally appeared, so let’s give our all to fight them.」

「… Tell me that first.」

Giorgia felt a tremendous presence from the end of the corridor lined with large pillars. By the time he pulled out his sword, everyone has taken a battle stance with their weapons.

「…… How envious. Lots of friends, the tyranny of the majority, really envious.」

A mumbling, a very quiet voice was heard. Then, the one who came into view from the end of the corridor was someone silver-haired.
