Marco and Alice came out from the water, and appeared in a cave, they looked around and the first thing they found was… People?Youth: Urgh… Why did this happen…? My house… My money….!
Child: Mama… I"m hungry
There were dozen of people around, and Marco asked.
Marco: Uhhhh… Why are you here? "I don"t remember this… Well, it was more than 15 years ago that I played the game…"
Boy: A monster helped me when my village was attacked. They"ve been sheltering us here.
Young Woman: I"m thankful that she saved my life. But is it okay to stay here like this…?
Alice: They seem like people from a neighboring village to here. But who brought them to here?
Marco didn"t listen to her and kept looking around, there was a girl playing with a slime in water...
Girl: Yaaay! Hahahaha!
Slime Girl: Yaay! Yaaay!
This was what Marco wanted, happiness between two races without any problem… But there is still a long way for it… Right now, a pink slime noticed them and called out.
Slime Bess: Ehh….? Master Erubetie, a human and monster have come!
And following her was Erubetie herself, still with her cold gaze.
Marco: "Even if I know it, it is just surprising…"
He was speechless, making Erubetie talk.
Erubetie: Do not misunderstand. If the humans fall, we are doomed too…
Marco: "...Tsundere…"
Alice: ...I see, I understand what"s going on. Erubetie, report on the status of the Monster Lord"s Castle.
Erubetie: ...Who is this insolent child?
Marco: Pffft….
Alice: I am Alipheese the 16th! Just look at me and you"d understand that, you moron!
Erubetie"s eyes widened for a moment and stuttered.
Erubetie: F...Forgive me… Tamamo is a.n.a.lyzing discs found in a nearby research lab. Alma Elma is complaining, but she"s reorganizing the castle"s defensive forces. Granberia… Took a lot of damage, and is resting. Even her stupidly robust body needs a few days to recover.
Marco: What caused that damage, Arc-En-Ciel?
Erubetie: It was mostly her, even though those cuts you gave her and the last hit in her skull took a toll on her body.
Marco: *Sigh* I tried to go as light as I could, but whatever… Where is Salamander?
Erubetie: She"s right there…
She pointed to a corner, where Salamander was covered with a blanket.
Salamander: F...Freezing…
Marco: … Alright, where"s the trap?
Alice: ...What are you talking about?
Marco: It"s f.u.c.king impossible that we can get again Salamander that easily, where"s the angel?
*Ding*
*Warning: Status: Poisoned*
Marco: s.h.i.t! EVERYONE, THERE"S POISON IN THE AIR!!! COVER YOUR NOSE!!
The humans turned towards Marco in surprise, before they did as he said, Alice and Erubetie were surprised from his claim and tried to sniff a bit, noticing a small bit of poison.
Marco: "System, apply the cure."
*Ding*
*Containing poison…*
*Erasing poison…*
*Status: Healthy*
Alice: This isn"t good! Someone contaminated the water! The damage will spread fast at this rate, we must evacuate everyone!
Erubetie: No… Our last sanctuary… Who would dare to poison it!?
The pink slime was giggling.
Slime Bess: Ehehe. That would be me. I threw some Magic Mercury into the spring a little ago.
Erubetie: Bess… You didn"t…!? Why would you do this to the sacred land of the slimes!?
Slime Bess: If I poison the spring, then I"ll be the Slime Queen. That"s what Black Alice promised me.
Erubetie: Bess, you…!
Alice: Save it for later, Erubetie! We must put priority on saving the poisoned humans and slimes! You must split right away, and carry everyone above ground and remove the poison! You"re the only one who can do it fast enough!
Erubetie: I understand…
Alice: Marco, are you alright? You are only a human!
Marco: It"s ok, the system helped me…
Alice nodded in understanding, no one except her knows what Marco was talking about, so he was free to speak about it in a subtle way. Erubetie splitted into multiple bodies and started to evacuate the poisoned humans and slimes. Meanwhile Marco glared at the traitor.
Slime Bess: Hahaha, so the Sinner is my opponent? I"m so happy… You look so delicious. Grandine, a.s.sist me.
Then she summoned the artificial water spirit, and this… Was a pretty bad thing… For her…
*Zap*
Slime Bess: AAARRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!
Marco extended his arm and threw a lightning at her, since her affinity with water increased even more than it was possible, the lightning attack hurted even more.
When Marco finished, Slime Bess was struggling to move.
Slime Bess: I… Won"t forgive… You… AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Marco threw another lightning at her, when he finished, she was slowly turning into a puddle.
Slime Bess: Stop… It hurts…
Marco charged his sword with lightning and impaled it right at the ground where she currently was.
Slime Bess: AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhh…..
Thanks to the enchantment of the Magic Dispersion, Slime Bess was not killed, even though she felt too much pain. Then Marco picked up the sword and prepared himself for another enemy.
Alice: ...Now I understand why you called yourself Villain… You look like one right now.
Marco: Meh, things happens…
Erubetie: Forgive me, Monster Lord… An insurgent appeared from my own subordinates…
Alice: I won"t blame you. There"s no way to completely control your subordinates. More importantly, how bad is the damage to the slimes and humans?
Erubetie: With a little of my absorption, I was able to neutralize the poison in their systems. None of them have died… But they won"t be able to move for a while.
Alice: Plansect Village is near here. We can request they take in the victims for now.
Erubetie: Our sanctuary… How could one of my brethren do such a thing?
She seemed in deep shock, but Marco could understand her, he and Billy were the ones who accidentally poisoned Gabriel, and thinking that it was once just a funny joke that turned into a murder sent them in a traumatic experience, even if his letter from another world put them out from it…
Marco: This is life… Humans, Monsters, Angels, G.o.ds… Everyone have a different mind, for humans there are calm people and Illias Kreuz, for monsters there are the followers of Alice and Black Alice, for Angels there are the fallen ones and those who follow Illias, for G.o.ds there is Illias and Dark G.o.d Alipheese…
No race really thinks at one direction, this is what it keeps us from being mindless beings.
Erubetie: I can"t blame this on humans. We are just as stupid as they are, it seems.
Marco: No, you helped the humans, ignoring your hatred for them, and this already placed you out from my s.h.i.t list.
Erubetie gazed in the floor silently, before Marco used Kurama Gate and placed his sword in front of Erubetie at high speed, surprising her.
*CLANG*
*Ding*
*24888/??? saved.*
A heavy sound came out from his blade blocking another one that came out from the darkness. Magnus successfully blocked the slash, even though it slightly moved away of some inches, showing the strength of the one who attacked.
Erubetie: Why did you protect me…? A slashing attack wouldn"t harm my body, anyway.
Marco: This one will…
?: He"s right, you barely survived, Erubetie. If the Sinner had not guarded you, that single slash would have ended you.
And from the darkness Amphisbaena came out.
Marco: The poor excuse of a vibrator came out… You f.u.c.king b.i.t.c.h almost cut my limbs down!
Amphisbaena: And I"ll gladly continue that… But I have orders.
Marco: Try it, you f.u.c.king giant d.i.l.d.o!
Marco raised his blade and sent out a lightning bolt at her, and she jumped away, dodging it. Then he charged his blade with lightning, and slashed at Amphisbaena, she used her vibrations while Marco used his own, from the lightning.
Amphisbaena: Hooh? You can use vibrations too?
Marco: Not as fast as yours… But I have enough strength to push you back…
Chakra arms came out from Marco"s back and punched at Amphisbaena"s chest, she tried to neutralize them by vibrating her body, but they were not cells, but pure energy, so it was useless.
Amphisbaena: Guh…!
Then Marco jumped at her, trying to deliver another hard hit, but a sudden soft light filled the air.
Marco: Tsk… Not now…
Then a Throne appeared, part of the 3rd circle of the hierarchy of angels, she was an angel who had the upper body over a giant egg with holes, she was naked, had really long blonde hair that were tied up in a long braid, she had red eyes and a pair of big white wings.
her fingers were over the egg, and looked like branches connected to it, the egg contained something that looked like a giant golden ovum that releases bubbles and at the bottom there were two halos.
Eggiel: I am Throne Eggiel. My role is to hatch new angels in my sacred egg.
Marco: f.u.c.k it! I"ll just make an omelette!
Marco used Gnome to be stronger and enlarged his hand towards Eggiel, trying to crush her against the wall of the cave, but she was revealed to be a bit tougher… Is she that hard!?
Eggiel: Stop! I"m gonna crack!
...Nevermind... Amphisbaena jumped at Marco, trying to kill him with a strike of hers, but he used his hand that held the sword to swing it around, sword met vibration, and sparks came out, Marco gritted his teeth before he created 2 more chakra arms with bijuudamas ready.
They almost reached Amphisbaena, but she jumped away again, then the chakra arms changed direction and reached Eggiel, definitely killing her.
*Ding*
*32/???*
*25000 pt.*
*87000 pt.*
Then Marco turned around to attack Amphisbaena, before noticing that she was gone.
Marco: Where did she go?
Alice: She ran away too fast…
Marco: It is either an order of Promestein or something is wrong with her body… "If I don"t remember correctly, her body parts are very precious, she can"t risk to heavily damage them…"
He turned around and found Erubetie scowling at him, before saying with hesitation.
Erubetie: ...Thank you for protecting me.
Marco: It"s nothing, if it was someone else I am sure you could beat them, but she is off-limits, unless you sacrifice something from your side. Look at me, I am so strong, but if the enemy is intangible I can"t do anything but run away, like Ghost Girls or Shadow Girls.
You have weak points too, some of them can"t be easily won over, if she touched you, you would be dead, so don"t try anything stupid with her.
Alice: He"s right… You should think more about your situation than what others think about you. Now, Marco, hurry up and start the contract with Salamander.
Marco: Oh, right…
Marco turned towards Salamander, who was still shivering in a corner of the cave.
Salamander: C...Cold…
Marco: "I"m afraid she would accidentally burn my d.i.c.k once she gained her strength…"
