Abduction 51. We are doing well too (3)
#A51
“Well, what is it? “Suddenly he called my name…”
Erzsebet flinched. It had been a long time since someone called her by her full name.
‘Didn’t you just come here because you didn’t like being sick? What does destruction mean?’
His eyes were so serious that if you look at his facial expression, he looked like he was proposing something.
The Shadow Prince continued.
“That means it is a serious issue. “Do you know that you wizards of the Dawn were our natural enemies in the past?”
“Ah, I know that. In the first place, the founder of the Dawn Magic Tower was a vampire hunter. “At that time, I learned that he grew his power through the wealth he accumulated.”
“good. So do you know why? “Why did the Night Clan fear only you?”
“That’s because our fire magic was the hottest, right?”
Erzsebet shrugged her shoulders.
Like Full Moon Earth Magic and Twilight Light Magic, each magic tower had a field in which it specialized.
The Dawn Magic Tower has been a master of fire magic since ancient times, and the Flame of Dawn was so powerful that it was considered the hottest fire in the world, excluding the dragon’s flame.
“Fear of fire is fear of us. We’re not campaigning, but no one handles flames better than us. “I’m still working day and night to create a hotter fire.”
“That’s also true. “But it’s not a perfect answer.”
“yes?”
“The fire you handle contains the energy of the sun. I don’t know if that tradition still continues, but it was like that in the past. “The compatriots who were struck by the flames spewed out by the Dawn Wizard turned to dust like their ancestors who perished under the sunlight.”
“Oh, I know that!”
Erzsebet hesitated.
As the Archduke said, some of the wizards of the Dawn Magic Tower were able to handle special flames.
The spell to manifest a sacred fire containing the energy of the sun, which is different from ordinary fire, has been passed down through the tower owners from generation to generation.
“But not everyone can use it like before. When the power of the sun is mixed, the difficulty of controlling the flame increases exponentially… so it is only taught to skilled wizards.”
Erzsebet pulled out her index finger.
The mana gathered together and a small flame bloomed from the tip of the finger.
The silently burning fire was not red, but a yellow plum color as vivid as sunlight.
Ophelia’s eyebrows twitched.
“······It’s been a while since I last saw you. “It’s creepy.”
She quietly put on her hood.
The fear written in my blood was stimulating my heart.
Shion, who was quietly listening to the conversation, applauded.
“Oh, I can do that too!”
match!
A cheerful sound rang out.
A golden will-o’-the-wisp light hovered above her head.
It was so big that it was quite dazzling.
A warmth reminiscent of a summer field surrounded the chest.
Erzsebet cautioned.
“Zion. “Don’t show it to the extent that it makes guests uncomfortable.”
“Ah, sorry. “I don’t even know that!”
“It’s okay…yes, it’s the fire. “The thought of using something like that already makes me nauseous.”
The Archduke frowned.
I walked a long way to find it, but I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.
What patients going to the hospital want is a complete cure, not vicious treatment.
Eventually, Erzsebet and Sion lifted the magic at the same time.
“As you can see, I can start the fire you mentioned. Sion next to me is also doing quite well. But you said earlier that if you die in a different way, the entire world will be destroyed. What does that mean?”
“That’s literally it. “Look.”
Suddenly, the Archduke opened his palm.
A pitchfork as black as a shadow climbed over the cut wound.
I felt a similar yet different energy from the power of the Shadow Prince I had witnessed in the past.
Erzsebet narrowed her eyes when she saw her hands that had turned black.
“This···?”
“It is my original magical power that has been corrupted and distorted. “This damned wound is not healing, and it is absorbing my power and storing it as it pleases.”
The Archduke growled.
An indescribable evil was felt in the black energy blooming from the gap between the wounds.
Would this be what it would feel like to see a living, writhing, deadly poison?
I felt like I knew why the expression ‘destruction’ was used.
“Unless you die in the fire of dawn, this power spreads to the surroundings. The soil will turn black and all the grass and trees will dry out. The animals will turn into bloodthirsty monsters and attack everything in sight. And of course, animals include humans.”
“···It’s terrible.”
“right. It’s terrible. “I hope this is a sufficient explanation… Wow!”
“Oh, Grand Duke?!”
It was an instant.
The Grand Duke, who continued speaking, vomited blood.
However, it was far from normal vomiting of blood.
Black, putrid blood burst out not only from the mouth but also from wounds on the entire body.
Just as the blood was about to spread everywhere, Ophelia’s eyes sparkled red.
“this···.”
Then the blood that had been spraying stopped.

Erzsebet and Sion sighed.
Thousands of blood drops were hovering in the air as if time had stopped.
When Ophelia raised one hand, the blood returned to the Archduke’s body.
The Archduke, whose blood had been restored, groaned while clutching his chest.
【Ugh, wow! Damn it…!】
“······The cycle is getting shorter. “There’s not much time left.”
Ophelia sighed.
Seeing the skillfulness evident in his movements, it seemed like this wasn’t something that had happened once or twice.
Erzsebet, who had been frozen, let out a sigh of confusion.
“Gwae, are you okay!? “What kind of blood is all over your body…”
“It’s not okay. In fact, it’s a miracle that you’ve survived until now. “Even after 20 years, the wound has never improved.”
Braum picked up the Archduke, who was staggering as if he was drunk, and carried him on his back.
The boy was breathing heavily and looked like he was going to faint at any moment.
The majesty of the monarch who rules the world of the night could not be seen anywhere in his delicate facial features.
Ophelia said.
“I think we need to make a decision soon… Will you postpone the details for a while and help us?”
“Ah, it’s not that it can’t be done, but we still have to prepare…”
“A magician of your caliber will be able to do it on his own… It’s not something worth exposing in front of many people… Don’t worry too much. Because it simply incinerates the body that has fulfilled its destiny. “I think it’s a rather simple task for the owner of the Dawn Tower.”
“Owner of the Dawn Magic Tower…!”
Erzsebet’s eyes widened.
master.
It was a word that always made my heart beat.
Actually, if you think about it, there was no particular reason to refuse.
It was embarrassing because things were progressing so randomly, but the Shadow Prince also came purely to seek help, just like the clients who visit the Magic Tower.
Erzsebet, who had been thinking while playing with Sion’s hair, finally made a decision.
“Okay, let’s do this! “I will definitely burn it down.”
“Whahaha! This is reassuring. It’s just like I remembered. “It reminds me of the day when Miss Erzsebet grabbed me and held me down with telekinesis!”
“Ugh, I said I was sorry back then…!”
Braum burst into laughter.
Erzsebet’s face turned bright red.
He still had fond memories of being bullied by Erzsebet at the freshman welcoming party.
Erzsebet cleared her throat.
“Hmm, but where do we perform the ceremony? “A place where you can take the risk of destroying the entire area…”
“Don’t worry… I’ve already decided…”
“Grand Duke?!”
At that time, the Archduke, who was out of breath, opened his eyes.
His body, which had barely stopped bleeding, looked like a leather bag about to be torn apart.
He was rummaging through his pants pocket and took out something.
A rolled up pitch black scroll.
It was a scroll imprinted with the most powerful spatial movement among spatial magic.
Erzsebet frowned.
“I can’t believe it was decided. “Where is it?”
“Warsaw Territory… I will activate the scroll, so get ready quickly…”
“Well, Warsaw is the land ruled by the Grand Duke. “Wouldn’t it be better to live in a remote area with no one around?”
Erzsebet raised her eyebrows.
Warsaw was a place located in the center of the land where vampires lived.
The castle of the Shadow Archduke clan was built in Warsaw, so all was said and done.
The Archduke nodded.
“It is a wound that I suffered because I was incompetent in the first place… Even in a deserted place, I cannot sprinkle blood on innocent land… The problem that happened to the children of the night must be resolved in the dark…”
“That can’t be possible…!”
“Then you can count on me to help you… Wow!”
The Archduke vomited blood again.
Erzsebet, impressed by the sense of responsibility, grabbed the sleeves of her clothes.
A vampire from a long-established family was not called a noble of the night for nothing.
“I think we should start as soon as we arrive…hehe, just open a reasonable distance and start right away…just fire the most powerful fire you know with the energy of the sun…”
The Archduke continued speaking with a cracked voice.
It seemed like there really wasn’t much time left now.
Erzsebet nodded and was about to instruct Sion to return.
The archduke coughed again, and his body shook greatly.
“Wow!”
“uh?”
Blood splattered.
Ophelia’s eyes sparkled and a drop of blood stopped in the air.
For a moment, a chill ran up the back of Erzsebet’s neck.
‘what?’
I couldn’t explain it.
However, I could instinctively sense that something was wrong.
Suddenly, Shion turned completely white and shouted.
“Eh, Sister Eri! “Scroll!”
“What did you say!?”
It didn’t take long to realize the sinister nature.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on the Archduke’s hand.
As my hand tightened, light was leaking from the torn scroll.
Kuoooooo!
As if the magic power inside the room was stirring, a huge, pitch-black hole appeared in the middle of the room.
It was a spatial magic that transported the user to pre-designated coordinates.
“Now, wait a minute! “If you suddenly activate it here…!”
Erzsebet was astonished.
The chest they were in was a special place where connection with the outside world was cut off.
Instead of swallowing the group, the hole was churning as if it was boiling.
It was a phenomenon that occurred when powerful space magic and blocking magic worked in opposition.
“Oh my god, everyone get behind me!!”
It was not difficult to intuit the future.
Braum took off his robe.
A great shield covering the entire body appeared.
Eventually, he leapt like lightning and blocked the path of the four people.
Kwahahah Ah- !!!
The bubbling hole caused an explosion.
“Aaaah!”
“Oh, sister!”
A storm of mana swept the area.
Dozens of blocking spells were broken at the same time, and the walls and ceiling were blown away.
The hidden library was revealed.
A dim green light poured over my head.
After seeing that the explosion had subsided, Braum looked back.
“Is everyone okay?! As far as I know, there are no scrolls left, so I never thought an accident like this would happen…!”
“More, thanks… What about the rest?”
Erzsebet stood up, touching her forehead.
Braum’s defense was so thorough that there were no injuries anywhere.
Zion was sprawled at her feet.
“Uuuh, sister…”
“Zion!”
Erzsebet hurriedly helped her up.
Fortunately, there were no serious injuries, but the robe was torn in several places.
Moisture formed in the purple-black eyes.
“I-I’m sorry. I’m truly sorry. “If only I had reacted a little faster…!”
“no. I’m fine, so let’s go find the Archduke. “Something… doesn’t feel right.”
Zion was in trouble.
What mattered now was not his injury.
It was a car in which two people were looking around to find the Archduke.
“Erzebet! Shoot!!”
“Ophelia?”
An urgent cry was heard not far away.
It was Ophelia’s always soft voice.
Erzsebet, who reflexively turned her head, stiffened in place.
“what.”
【Ugh…! Wow!】
The Shadow Prince was struggling.
The joints of the limbs were twisted in bizarre directions.
The wounds covering the body were writhing as if alive and emitting dark red light.
Ophelia shouted again.
“You have to shoot now! “If it’s not now, there’s no chance!”
“Oh, okay!”
Erzsebet, who regained her senses, stretched out her hand.
I don’t know what happened, but I had a very bad feeling.
The banned books had woken up and were buzzing.
[Who dares wake me from my sleep!]
[Holy shit, what kind of crazy person is talking about here?]
[Uh, is Erzsebet there? I feel strange, please take me out!]
The books lined up on the shelves were being opened one by one.
The sound of paper turning was loud.
The voices rang out one after another, making my head hurt, but I didn’t have time to worry about it.
Erzsebet finished chanting in an instant.
Kwaaaaaa-!
Waves of flame poured out from the two palms brought together in front.
[Um, what is that girl doing now?!]
[It’s fire! Save the book!]
The forbidden books, surprised to see the fire, let out screams again.
The flames pouring down like a tidal wave were shining with brilliant colors like gold mines.
The Archduke was still writhing in pain.
“Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
“I hope it’s not too late…!”
Erzsebet chewed her lips.
The wounds covering the Archduke’s body were scattering black light.
The car suddenly burst into flames and was about to engulf him.
【ah.】
The Archduke’s body was completely covered in black.
The body that had stopped convulsing turned towards Erzsebet.
The middle of the black chest split open, revealing red eyes.
【The disgusting smell of something small is wafting in the air.】
