4 Careless Visitors (2/2)

Yu stands before the body of Ravi, still not knowing if he should laugh or not as the trap he had set to waste the shield of the enemy had actually killed the target without any resistance. Yes the traps put forth by Yu were only to force the enemy to use there shield and to trap the Soul Beast so the wolf can easily kill the summoner but who would have know that the enemy didn't even get the chance summon his shield let alone his Soul Beast. The shield is actually a barrier formed when the Grimoire is summoned, off course you can opt to not summon it and do that later as the shield cant be resummoned or relocated although it can be entered and exited freely by anyone permitted from the summoner.

Ravi apparently occupied with his thoughts hadn't had the time to realize that he was in danger thus he was killed on the spot

”Hmm is it because he thought I didn't have any Soul Beasts left or did he not have a fast enough reaction, well either way this victory was just too simple that i don't know if i should even count it as a first battle”

Yu then notices a book laying next to Ravi, its color the same as his Grimoire before he had bound it to himself.

'Sadly all the Soul Beasts die in the Grimoire when the owner dies, even if i wanted to tame any of them that would be impossible'

Thinking up to here Yu picks up the Grimoire and hides it in his cloths and asks the wolf to drag the body inside, unexpectedly the wold sneers and walks back to the mansion leaving Yu to drag the body himself.

”Really..I hope it won't do that in a battle”

After dragging the body inside Yu searches it thoroughly, and only after taking every item on it did he place it in a corner of the mansion and wrap it with a blanket.

Then he remade the trap and fed every Soul Beast while eating himself while he waited for the new visitor.

Not to his disappointment, only a few hours later a new figure could be seen walking the muddy path.

***********************

Cranen Kore, younger sister of the wild Cranen Karme, part of the middle class noble household in the Southern Paradise, a timid girl usually seen around her wild courageoussister that often drags her into trouble.

”Big sis said this was the place, I wouldn't have believed that the third young master if the Shenai family would be assigned this old mansion if I didn't know about the duel that had happened”

Unsummoning her mount Kore proceeds to summon her Soul Beast which seems like a ferocious wild Puma that us doubled in size.

”Kill the person in that mansion”

The puma runs to the mansion at the command of Kore, filled with wild vigor for a new prey.

'Though I don't get why big sis said to kill him first no matter what and only then take the core since the life lock will save him anyway I will just do as she said'

Suddenly a cracking sound could be heard coming from the puma's direction and an angered cry could be heard from it but before Kore had the chance to check what had happened the puma that couldn't stop with the momentum it had fell through the pit, and just at the point the doors of the mansion burst open as a wolf charged at the pit and jumped downward on the puma intending to finish it off.

'Whats going on, who's wolf is that, i thought all his Soul Beasts were dead'

Hurriedly summoning her shield, Kore glances at the youth coming towards her, after confirming it to be Yu she shouts at him with rage.

”What do you think your doing, have you not learned your lesson, why not accept defeat so you can leave this place with less losses than what you got”

The youth stops and puts a confused face for a few seconds but then he suddenly smiles which causes chills to run down Kore's back.

While keeping that smile the youth looks at her and says.

”Aren't you here to end my life? then why should I take it laying down, off course I would fight back”

'Whats he thinking' Kore thought 'Wait' as she recalled her sister insisting on killing Yu first then taking the core realization dawned upon her

Seeing her stunned face Yu says ”So you get now right, the core us equipped with a life lock negation, in other words we would be killed for real when near this mansion”

'Why would they do that, no, he said we ?!' Kore's stunned face turns into horror which intensifies when she feels a pain in her soul followed by the wolf coming out of the pit which reveals the fact that her Soul Beast had been killed.

Turning around to face Yu she screams at him ”Your insane my sister will never let you go, she will kill you if she finds out that you hurt me”

”Well she intended to kill me from the start so why would I care about it now , and surly she wouldn't let me go after this so I see no reason not to kill you, and since you had already gotten you soul injured it seems you can only summon one or two more Soul beasts while I can summon more”

Kore's face pales hearing Yu and after looking at the mansion and her back she suddenly rushes out of the shield which dissolves intending to escape the parameter of the core.

The wolf without needing Yu's command rushes at her and mows her down as a bronze rank would surly not be able to outrun a wolf.

Thus another carless visitors decides to reside in the mansion eternally.
