37. Rabies (2)

“The gray wolf is definitely in a strange state.”

“That’s…”

At my words, Shione nodded.

Her eyes narrowed and fixed on the gray wolf.

Then, her narrowed eyes widened and her suspicious expression changed as if she realized something.

“Could it be… Magi?”

I couldn’t help but be surprised by Shione’s murmur.

No one else, Shione, who has lived in a world cut off from the outside world called the corner of the room, could have recognized it by seeing Magi.

I never even dreamed of it.

I thought the only things Shione could tell by looking at it were sweets and flowers.

I wondered how much Shione knew about Magi.

Besides, it would seem strange that a slave-turned-worm like me knew about Magi.

I asked with pretending not to know anything about Magi.

“Are you Margi?”

“…It is a special energy that demons deal with. It is famous for having the power to turn humans into demons and monsters to become berserk.”

“You mean that gray wolf has been corrupted by demons?”

“Yes.”

Shione’s blue eyes captured the gray wolves colder than ever.

I could feel the seriousness on her hardened face.

Following Ainel and Siabelle, I didn’t know that Shione would be able to make an expression like that.

Putting aside the thought that today we will see a lot of new sides of Shione.

I listened to Shione’s flowing words.

“Red bloodshot eyes, tanned black hair, and even a special aura I can feel from him. I can only see anything because of the demonic influence.”

“Can you feel the magic energy?”

“Who am I?”

“This is Sione Cianella.”

“I think the answer has already been given.”

Don’t waste your time and tell me quickly.

Seeing my reaction for no reason, Shione put off her words and looked at my face.

When I tilted my head and looked at her to tell her to speak quickly, Shione’s mouth opened again.

From noble mtl dot com

“In Cianella’s blood, the power of the Extinction, the power of the ancestor who was awarded the count’s rank for killing the devil in the past, is inherited.”

“The power of annihilation… You mean?”

“Yes, the power of the authority has been diluted quite a bit now… But it doesn’t seem to have weakened all that much.”

After saying that, Shione walked towards Sia Bell, who was hardening her expression like herself.

I followed Shione’s backstory and read her status window, which resurfaced after only a day.

[I noticed the power of Countess Cianella, 【Destruction】!]

[Quest related to [Death] Is added to the types of quests that can be created!]

[[Through the quest about the [Death Demon], You can bloom the power of the annihilation held by Sione Cianella and Siabelle Cianella!]

I quietly nodded my head.

Because the power of annihilation is a power that I am also familiar with.

Certainly, among the world’s hunter rankings, I know that the power that the top 50 hunters possessed was none other than this annihilation…….

I remember him as a guy who used the power of annihilation to attack at high speed, even in dungeons full of demons, active more than anyone else.

The ability to become stronger than anyone else as far as demons go.

A power that is more desperate than anything else in a world ruined by demons.

For the current Sione Cianella, it’s too much power.

Thinking of Siabelle and Ainel, I finally started to see hope.

Ah, then he had the power of annihilation… What never noticed about those devil-worshipping b*tches before.

Demon worshipers often have demonic energy, though not as much as those gray wolves.

I was lost in thought.

Shione stood in front of Siabelle before she knew it and opened her mouth.

“Sister, I guess that’s…”

“Looking at the expression, you must have noticed it too.”

Sia Belle pulled out the sword that was strapped to her waist.

The sharp blade caught the sunlight and shone beautifully like my own silvery white hair.

“I didn’t expect there to be monsters tainted with demonic energy in the Beltrin Mountains. Let’s cut their heads right away and search the surroundings thoroughly.”

“…I understand.”

Soldiers and Siabelle, each with their own weapons, attacked the gray wolves.

The gray wolf also drooled and attacked the soldiers with glaring eyes.

“Wow, this is…!”

“Grrr.!”

Soldiers were taken aback by the gray wolf, which would bite like crazy even if a knife was stuck in its body.

The reason why monsters with demonic erosion are tricky.

The fact that no matter how tattered my body gets, I won’t give up my intention to attack until my breath stops.

Since the gray wolf that rushes in without covering the water is not a good opponent to deal with.

Soldiers also gritted their teeth and struck their necks or pierced their hearts.

The problem is that there are more than 10 of them.

Probably because there were too many of them, the guys who weren’t caught in the attack started salivating while looking at me and Shione.

… I don’t think it’s going to lower its tail just because it gets stuck with an arrow or two.

How can I get over this?

I said, hanging an arrow on a string.

“Shione-sama, step back.”

“Let me help too.”

“You won’t be able to stop them with an arrow through their torso.”

“Then, why not use a sword? I haven’t wielded a sword for a long time…But I’m a sword user, too.”

I shook my head at Sione’s words.

“…Unlike the sword I wielded before, the sword you have now has a single blade and a shorter blade. I’m afraid you’ll get hurt.”

“Don’t worry. You can catch enough gray wolves though.”

To say that you would have a hard time buying it even if I told you to watch it from behind.

“You have to be careful.”

“Whoops, don’t worry.”

But she’s not a sword runner who just learned mana, she’s a beginner, but she’s a sword user.

Even if you’ve only seen a lot of stupid things, you’ll do well on your own.

I remembered the position of Sione, who drew her sword and marked a wolf.

If I think it’s lacking even a little bit, I’m thinking of taking it out right away.

No matter how hard it is, I don’t trust Shione because there are things I usually see.

I took my eyes off Shione.

“Grrr!!”

Now it’s only right to deal with that wolf that jumps out at me with its mouth wide open.

I immediately fired an arrow.

Kwajik!

“Oops.”

“…Kong!!

I aimed for his head, but he suddenly turned his body and the arrow lodged in his leg.

That mad dog with rabies jumped straight at me without flinching, as if my leg didn’t even hurt.

As long as there is a sense that the distance is too close to shoot the arrow again.

I took out my sword.

Feeling the feel of the cold leather handle, the tension was raised.

Even if you cut it down once, it’s obvious that it will attack you many times.

I lose face if I sway around and get bitten by a gray wolf.

“Kreureung!!”

It has a distance from other entities, and as long as the soldiers are steadily pulling aggro.

I focused exclusively on one gray wolf.

The guy came right in front of him and grabbed his body.

When I also dodged the bouncing guy to the side and aimed the blade at him with the intention of driving the sword into his ribs.

“…Huh?”

Someone wrapped around my waist and hugged me.

Who the hell is doing this in this situation, turn your head and check your face.

“What a man is doing dangerously.”

I could see Siabelle glaring at the gray wolf I was trying to catch, her mouth curled up.

Let’s look at how the hell the person who was fighting on the other side came all the way here.

She turned her body around.

Since she was held tightly in her left arm, I couldn’t help but get caught up in her movements too.

“You’re too stubborn.”

As she turned her body around, Siabelle drew down her sword without hesitation.

At the same time, a long line formed around the gray wolf’s neck following the movement of her sword with a blue flash.

The wolf’s agile and strong body quickly collapsed.

Siabel, who had neatly cut down a wolf, finally looked at me.

“Do you know how to handle kendo?”

Her gaze turned to the sword in my hand.

I didn’t expect to ask questions in a relaxed manner in this situation.

If I didn’t answer again, I felt like I’d still be held captive by Siabelle, so I answered right away.

“…Is good enough to catch a wolf.”

My words made Siabelle’s smile grow thicker.

“After the bow and magic, the sword.”

Sia Bell laughed to herself at what else was interesting and released her left arm from her waist.

Only then was she freed by Sia Belle, so I kept my distance from her and looked at Shione at the same time.

“…….”

The bloodstained leather armor and the weak wolf fell limply, as if it had gone through a pretty fierce battle.

Then, Shione hung limply on the sword dripping with dark red blood.

Her cold eyes were on me.

Creepy-

It must have been very difficult to deal with wolves.

I felt a deep sense of difference in the unusual atmosphere of Shione.

I looked away from Shione and said to Siabelle.

“…Let’s hurry up and catch all the wolves. If possible, would you like to move with Sione-nim?”

“Yes, instead.”

Siabelle raised her sword and showed it.

“I think it would be nice to meet separately next time to share swords. Would that be okay?”

“I will do so if Sione-nim allows it.”

Sia Belle turned her body with an expression of anticipation at my words.

Seeing Siabelle heading straight for Shione, she took out an arrow to catch the wolf again.

She turned her head at the cold gaze, still felt on her skin.

“……?”

Why are you doing that all of a sudden?

Shione’s eyes, joined by Siabelle, were occasionally following me and my sister in turn.
