10 Revenge of the Maid (2/2)
”If you ask me, you do deserve to get punished for that-ze.” commented Marisa.
'…I don't need your input Marisa.'
I looked back at Sakuya. She look ready to skin me alive right now, very different from my last visit. She probably didn't care I said I'm her girlfriend but instead she's mad because I said I'm Remilia girlfriend.
And speaking of Remilia, I got this notification at yesterday night.

THAT'S A LOT OF POINTS!
Those achievements probably happened because they are their mansion meeting or something because they are triggered at the same times, and that's probably why this situation happened right now….
And here I am. Reimu and I getting dragged by Marisa to SDM, she changed her reward from sweet to help her doing some stuff inside the SDM, probably for becoming the bait for the security inside while she steals some books inside the library. I also haven't use the Random Roll yet, dammit.
”With that have fun Sakuya, kick his ass-daze,” cheered Marisa.
”Yeah, punish him good, Sakuya.” Reimu followed up.
”Don't be worried, Mistress already ordered me to.” Sakuya said coldly.
”And with that we will gonna where Flandre is, bye-ze.” Marisa said that while leaving with Reimu.
...aaaaand they are gone…Karma's a bitch isn't it?
Now it's just the two of us, facing each other, in the guest room.
Guest room have wide area to greet the guest, if they keep walking forward there will be a big staircase to the 2nd floor, while there's a hallway at the right and left side of the room to go to the different place.
”Um, It's a nice day isn't it, Sakuya-san.” I tried to talk with her.
”…Yes, it is a nice day indeed, Arah-san, what's the rule?” She answer back,
…Lovely conversation.
*Ding*
[Quest Alert]
[3* Defeat the Perfect Maid]
Lovely quest, Oh La La~.
”Let's see…how about 3 spell cards, whoever runs out first or get knocked out first, they lose.” I prepared myself.
”Agreed.” She immediately summoned her spell card and used it.
”Illusion World ”The World””
'Big Spell card right of the bat?!'
Immediately my vision filled with Blue and Green Danmaku knives.
I jump backward and start observing the entire spell card.
The blue one homed in on my position, while the green one flew around my surrounding, cutting off my escape.
'Dammit, the room is wide but it's limited, and if I fly I might get shot to the face immediately.'
I tried to dodge but I got hit by some of the Danmaku.
'It stings a little but I will manage.'
As soon as the knife wave gone, I could see in front of me again. There's Sakuya standing in different position than last time.
'Shoot and Run, huh.'
”Theater sign ”Duet Dancer””
I used my spell card now.
The whole room turned dark, spot lights start shining on top of us, and Lightsaber on my hand.
'Need to improve on the fly…, System, Upgrade Swordsmanship to Lv.5, immediately'
[Swordsmanship Lv have been upgraded to 5]
I dash toward Sakuya. She began throwing her Danmaku and my vision once again filled with blue and green knives. I search at Sakuya spotlight, found it, and stepped out of the way of the blue knive's trajectory and prepared to slash apart the barrage of green knives with my new technique.
'Start to overload the lightsaber, make the energy stream from the front side of the sword, swing forward, and make the slash fly toward the spotlight location.'
”HAAAAH!” I slashed forward.
The Energy Slash flew forwards, slicing apart the green knife Danmaku, and kept flying toward another spotlight.
”Kuh!” I assume that's Sakuya's voice.
*Crack**Crack*
Her and my spell card ended at the same time. She and I summoned another spell card.
”Illusion Ghost ”Jack the Ludo Bile””
”Direction Sign ”Molecule Collector””
She started shooting big red ball Danmaku shotgun-pattern and second letter blue knife Danmaku appeared between those Red Ball Danmaku, filling up their empty line of fire spot.
I gather Heat Energy in the room, making 10 Red Danmaku Ball, positioned them behind my shoulder, ready to be deployed and sent toward the target.
I sent one Red Ball to her Red Ball, canceling each other out. And now there's a hole in Sakuya's attack. I started shooting her with my regular Danmaku. As soon as she saw this, she canceled her own Spell Card.
*Crack*
She knew that if this kept up she's just gonna take unnecessary damage so she canceled it early. Clever girl.
Now, she's down to her last Spell Card.
”Killer Doll”
…What?
Hundreds of knives appear circling Sakuya before flying straight toward me.
'IT'S HER BOMB!'
I send the rest of my Red Balls toward the stream of knives but it doesn't do shit. The knives were almost at me. I crossed my arms, hoping to reduce the damage to my head.
'PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN!'
It's Danmaku battle so I turn off my counter armor every time I fight, to keep it fair, and now I can only endure the pain and hoping it will stop anytime soon.
”GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!”
I know her bomb should be ending soon because it's short, but it feels like forever to me as I endure the pain from the Danmaku.
And finally, it stopped.
”*gasp**gasp*”
I'm gasping for breath after that ordeal. I put hands down and one of my knees to the carpet. I searched for Sakuya.
I found her; she's there, still standing on her previous spot.
*Ding*
[3* Defeat the Perfect Maid - complete]
[Reward: 10.000 AP & IP]
”I-I win!” I shouted toward her.
She instantly appears a few feet in front of me.
”Yes, you won but my purpose was to punish you, and from your appearance and screams of pain just now, I fulfilled it.” She starts smiling as she said it.
”*gasp* Win the battle but lose the war, eh,…dammit.” I wore a tired smile.
She got me good.
”So, what do you want for winning the Danmaku game? It will be fulfilled it so long as it's reasonable.”
”Then-””No Girlfriend request.” She cut me off.
I look at her, and she looks super serious.
”…Then-””Not even Master Servant request.”
She looks super duper serious right now.
”…Sakuya-san, how low is the evaluation of my personality to you?” I asked her.
”I'm sorry, but it is very low.” She answered with serious eyes.
…I wish I was a Masochist so that I can enjoy her cold eyes that's looking at me as if I'm a trash, but sadly I'm not, and it's only making me depressed.
”…Can I use the piano when I visit the mansion? And this is my original request before you cut me off every time I tried to speak.”
”I see, I already heard your performance; it is okay for you to play it whenever you visit us.”
”Great.”
*BOOM* The mansion shook.
”Explosion?” Sakuya questioned.
Don't tell me…
”…If my deduction is right then, Marisa use me and Reimu as a distraction to steal a book right now. Sakuya-san, please go to the library and prevent Marisa's theft.”
”And you?” she asked.
”Of course, I'm going home, I'm just here for paying back favor from Marisa, you can be sure that I won't invade the mansion again in the future.” I gave a thumbs up to Sakuya.
”I see, please be careful on your way home then.” She slightly bowed and disappeared.
*BOOM* the mansion shook again.
”*Sigh* I should stay away from the mansion for a while.”
And I finally start getting out from the Mansion.
Author note:
Heyo, Author here. Finally, I'm free from SDM chapter now! This is like the final chapter in the EoSD arc. The next chapter, we will feature other area beside the SDM.
And in this chapter, Patchouli perfectly debunks Arah ability in a matter of second, as expected from her occupation: Intellectual, librarian, teacher, and scholar. Like holy shit, for a person with health problem, she's like the role model for all of them.
So, I kinda digging information in the wiki, and what did I found. An interview with ZUN, ZUN comment toward the MC, he said ”Their age doesn't change in every games” or something similar. SO MY THEORY IS CORRECT, THEY ARE AGING SLOWLY(maybe), THEY ARE NOT IMMORTAL BUT AGING SLOWLY(maybe).
