The Melancholy of the Holy Maiden

What kind of existence can create new undead species?

— Undoubtedly, a lich.

These guys are evolved from the powerful skeletons with soul fire, or transformed by human spellcasters. They are the guys with the best brains and the most powerful power among the undead.

Similarly, these guys are the most insane.

When Bedivere was fighting with those vampires——Luceni gave it such a name for the time being——When Bedivere was fighting, while Lucyne was talking with Ernest, she was also With the help of magic placed on the button of the red-haired girl's clothes, feel the place where you are looking for the guy who made it all.

Especially when the magic circle besieging the red-haired girl appeared, she followed the weak to almost non-existent connection and the fluctuation of magic to find the opponent's foothold.

For divine arts, this is very troublesome, because divine arts are not magic and belong to different systems.However, the dead spirits and demons are as conspicuous as ink dots on parchment to the divine power, and conversely, the divine power is like fireflies in the dark to the dead spirits and demons.

In Lapuyard, there are priests who believe in Itenna everywhere, and Lucini is the light among this group of fireflies.

The other party must have discovered her whereabouts.

However, the expected attack did not occur.

Between Bedwell, who was leading the way, and Ernest, who was behind him, Lucy Ni was a little tangled—she is such a big target, is she really unattractive? !Is the necromancer in the dark a dead person? Can't even feel such a big luminous body? !

"My Lady of Saintess."

"Ah, huh?" Lucy Ni raised her head in confusion, and Bedwell actually called her.She changed into a smile in an instant, "What's the matter, dear?"

"That... your worry is unnecessary. On the way back, I cleaned up all the things that gathered. Besides, the undead are the dead in the first place."

Lucini was shocked: "Honey, can you finally understand Lu's thoughts?"

"I'm so sorry to disappoint you because you, uh, asked."

"Oh... next time you don't need to remind Lu about things like 'dead spirits are originally dead', save some face for Lu~"

The Holy Maiden curled her lips in disappointment, then puffed up her cheeks and looked at Bedwell.The words "I don't want to lose face" are expressed all over my face.

She still has a lot of thoughts about Bei Wei that she wants to say but can't express. It would be great if she could directly convey them to the other party's mind.Bei Wei will definitely blush with embarrassment, but she won't refuse her, huh.

"...Hmm, maybe you can try to study such a magic technique. How should I do it..."

The Holy Maiden frowned and thought about it.

His Royal Highness, who was walking behind the two girls, felt that his poor outlook had been impacted, and he had a complicated face, wondering whether he should speak out or not.

This... Although he knew that his sister had a good time with these two, he really never thought that Lucini would have expressions other than a smile, talk coquettishly, or walk in a daze.

What's the matter with this subtle feeling that the goddess in my heart is collapsing...

So should he remind the Holy Maiden that both of them don't know where the enemy is hiding, and if they are in a daze, they can wait until the matter is over before continuing?

Miss Knight actually stopped with a face full of indulgence, planning to wait for Lucini to finish her daze?

Hey, if this continues, the enemy will easily escape.

So, the anxious Prince had no choice but to speak: "My lord, I understand your desire to explore when you suddenly think of a new magical technique, but do we have other things to do now?"

If His Royal Highness, the poor prince, knew the purpose of the magical technique that Lucini was thinking about, he would probably just leave these two guys behind and roll up his sleeves in anger.

The footsteps of the three-person team finally continued to move.

Until, the guy in the dark appeared in front of them.

The girl sitting on the eaves lowered her head.

Her face was ordinary, with only one scarlet left eye, which shone with an unexplainable strange color under the light of the red gold and pale silver moons.

Cold and indifferent.

Also red.

Lucini glanced at Bedwell beside her. Lady Knight was on guard against the other party's sudden attack, Lucini thought leisurely.

Still, Bei Wei has beautiful eyes.

"How do you know it's me?"

The owner of the scarlet left eye spoke.With her hands on her sides, she leaned over slightly, her calves exposed under the burlap skirt were strangely pale.

"Hmm, actually Lu didn't expect it to be you."

Lucini didn't feel nervous at all, and slowly gave a wrong answer.

"... Aya."

His Royal Highness, who was also on alert, Ernest blinked a few times in shock at the name that Lucy Ni spit out: "Did you admit it wrong? How could this child be missing..."

The moment he saw the other person's face clearly, Ernest silenced his voice.While sorting out the information, he had seen a portrait of this young girl.

Aya was unmoved, and only stared at Lucini with her open left eye: "Why do you know it's me?"

That is definitely not the tone that an ordinary civilian girl can have.

"Then why did you attack Harriet?" Luxini still did not answer Aya's question, and said to herself, "Why did you infect Harriet but let Mia go? Your mother and you sister? Is there anything about Mia that makes you afraid?"

"..." Aya didn't speak.

Around Aya, one after another, things on all fours slowly crawled over from the roof and from the darkness of the street.Pairs of red eyes stared at the three of Lucini.

"Why, have you become angry? But isn't it you who left a note to Mia saying that she was going to get married but 'doesn't want to go or not'? Speaking of which, I have to thank you for your actions, otherwise Lu wouldn't be able to track you down ah."

Aya raised her hand to stop those things that were about to pounce, her face was a little worried: "What note?"

"Huh? Don't you know?" Lucy Ni blinked her eyes, acting as if she had suddenly realized, her acting skills were so exaggerated that His Royal Highness couldn't bear to watch it again, "Then..."

"—Where did the real Aya go?"

"Or, Aya, what are you? Has the original Aya been eaten by you?"

Accompanied by thunder and fiery red spears clanging, Bedwell, who had lost her standard long sword, could only use the most convenient weapon to meet the vampires who rushed over.On the other side, His Royal Highness the Prince has also swung his sword to kill.

Aya stood up on the eaves, the wind ruffled her hair, revealing a pair of slightly pointed ears.

"I am Aya." She said, "The original Aya of the human race never existed."

"It's too much, what about Harriet and Mia?" Lucy Ni opened her eyes slightly, her expression looked extremely surprised, "Hey, why did you give up being a human? Even if you were transformed into a strange The species don't have to give up on themselves?!"

"That trash Harriet has been wary of me getting close to Mia. It seems that you also prevented her from hurting Mia, hmph."

Aya smiled, with a shivering chill in her expression, "But now, no one can stop Harriet. Of course, my little Miya will only suffer a little bit, but Harriet, Ha ha ha ha."

"Why are you doing this?"

Lucy's expression turned cold.

Obviously they are blood relatives, right?The three people registered in the information, the mother and two daughters who depend on each other, do not have any possibility of falsification, they are real relatives connected by blood.

"Yeah, why?"

Aya raised the corners of her mouth, and a pair of bat wings stretched out from her back.

She opened the right eye that had been closed all the time, it was a gray eye with a dilated pupil, which was significantly different from a blind person—

—these are the eyes of the dead.

"I tried my best to crawl out of the grave, I tried my best to escape back. I was in pain and scared. I only hoped that my mother and my sister could help me."

Aya's eyes, which were scarlet and gray, looked extremely weird. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and licked her elongated canine teeth. The smile on her face made even Lucy's intuition feel bad: "Harriet thought She wanted to leave me, but she screamed at me not to get close to Mia. Even though she was sick, she still stood in front of Mia without hesitation. I finally crawled out of the dark and cold mound , but she asked me why I came back."

"My mother, ask me why I don't die."

"So, I infected her, but I didn't let her die so quickly." Aya laughed twice, "Don't look at me like this, I'm a good sister, Harriet was bedridden for the past six months They are all Mya who I take care of."

"But you are indeed dead." Luxini looked directly at her, with a bit of pity in her golden and silver pupils, "You are already dead, Aya."

Ordinary people of Itenna will be registered at birth in order to obtain the rights belonging to the people of Itenna.Those registered originals will eventually be collected and stored in the library of the Royal Academy of Eterna.When someone dies, the magic attached to the paper will load the deceased's information into another death register.

Ethan has the confidence to do so.

It will take a long time to find this information, but don't forget, Miss Lucini's guardian knight, there is a great sage who is honored as the "Heroic Spirit of Itenna" and almost manages the royal library. Teacher.

Aya...

Indeed, he should have died half a year ago, from a disease brought by a certain monster species.

Even if she couldn't find any relevant information, the Aya in front of her didn't look like a living human.

No breathing, no heartbeat, no body temperature, fangs, and wings that don't belong to the human body. She was as pale as a corpse, and her body was even filled with mutated viruses.

Lucini lowered her silver eyelashes and repeated with a sigh: "Aya, you no longer belong to Lantia. Leave, leave here."

At some point, Bedwell and Ernest were already standing beside Lucini.

The girl standing on the eaves tilted her head and stared at Lucini with eyes full of anger: "Shut up! I will never leave Mia. When Harriet's trash dies, Mia can only rely on me." !He has given me permission, he has given me permission!"

"Dead people cannot set foot in Lantia. You should have been pulled into Nibelungen, the kingdom of the dead. No one can break the rules of the kingdom of the dead."

Without asking who "he" was, Lucini just spoke persuasively, her tone was as soft as ever.

"To shut up!"

"Ok."

Opposite to Aya who swooped down with bat wings, a dazzling light also appeared on Lucini's hand.

"The dead who try to interfere with the living."

The expression of the sun and moon enlightener is full of chilling meaning.

"—The agent of God has the right to judge."

The author has something to say: Thank you for the mines of "this meow is here" and the grenade of "fdcb5", which cost a lot!

That's right, Aya at the beginning of the incident actually happened half a year ago (.
