Chapter 140 - Invitation and Demonkind [4] (1/2)

140. Invitation and Demonkind [4]

That guy’s bloodlust dominated the space in the blink of an eye. It was dreadfully dense, to the point where I almost couldn’t breathe.

「Kyaa!!!」

Tenshi-sama’s soul dress shattered to pieces, as she fell off the bed.

At the same time, the four guards who were hiding jumped out at once.

「What a dreadful bloodlust!?」

「So the rumours appear to be true!」

「Causing dismay to Tenshi-sama… This insolence cannot be forgiven!」

「Pay for your sins with death!」

They gripped their soul dress tightly, and rushed at me with tremendous speed. Most likely Senior Holy Knights appointed by the government – elites who were entrusted with the escort of Tenshi-sama.

(Shit!)

I haven’t completely escaped Tenshi-sama’s〈Love Slave〉yet.

Swaying vision.

Hazy consciousness.

Disadvantaged position of lying on my back.

To put it bluntly, I couldn’t be in a worse situation.

Still, when I desperately raised my upper body,

「「「「DIEEEEEEEEEEE!」」」」

A total of four sharp slashes were unleashed from all sides.

(Evasion is… impossible! I can’t defend in time, either… If that’s the case, the dark robe!)

When I tried to clad myself in darkness, Dark Shadow activated on its own.

(What!?)

The jet black darkness that started moving without my will, instantly crushed the soul dress of the guards.

「「「「Wha!?」」」」

And in a sweeping motion, it penetrated the abdomens of the four very easily.

「Ka, ha!」

「Shit!」

「A-Absurd…」

「Impossible…」

With their soul dress shattered to pieces and fatally wounded, all four collapsed on the spot.

(W-What power!?)

My Dark Shadow couldn’t even be compared to it. The destructive power was literally magnitudes apart.

(It’s definitely that guy’s Dark Shadow!)

When I gasped at the overwhelming violence, darkness began to move on its own again. Moving like a whip, it aimed at the neck of the four collapsed on the floor.

「Stop!」

I cut off his interference by concentrating on my consciousness.

And the next moment, Dark Shadow disappeared, together with the dense bloodlust.

(That was too close…)

As Leia-sensei said, his actions seem to be strongly restricted while my consciousness is clear.

(Anyway, I have to hurry up and heal them…)

The four men, who were pierced through their abdomens by Dark Shadow, lay unconscious in a critical state.

If I leave them as is, they will most likely die in less than a minute.

I concentrated my consciousness, which was still hazy, and stretched out darkness onto their abdomens.

「「「U-Uh…」」」

Their wounds were plugged up in no time, and their body quickly returned to a normal state.

They’ll probably wake up in a few minutes.

(Fuu… That’s a relief for now…)

As I exhaled loudly, my hazy consciousness gradually became clear.

Then, I calmly looked around. Dusky darkness covered the whole room.

At that time, I didn’t realize that his darkness had leaked out over a vast range.
