The girl's sobs in his arms gradually subsided, eventually ceasing altogether. Looking down, Arthas saw that she had fallen asleep, her breathing even and her eyes closed.
The 'Oni-fied' forest below was slowly disappearing. Arthas wasn't sure if this was due to Leticia's unconsciousness or Hibari and Yō's victory in the Gift Game.
Looking at the sleeping girl in his arms, her face still wet with tears, her beauty breathtaking, Arthas considered checking on the others but ultimately decided against it.
Let's go back to No Name for now. Whatever happened, they clearly won.
As Arthas suspected, the Gift Game had indeed ended. Sakamaki Izayoi was excitedly talking to a group of people, pulling Jin along, while Kuro Usagi stood beside them, looking troubled. The two winners were nowhere to be seen.
"Izayoi, really… why did you say all those unnecessary things?!"
After Sakamaki Izayoi finished speaking with the formerly victimized commonalities, Kuro Usagi complained.
Winning the Gift Game should have been joyous, but Sakamaki Izayoi had ruined it.
He had announced to all the commonalities present that No Name would become the commonality to defeat the Demon Lords, leading the charge wherever Demon Lords wreaked havoc.
"What? That's the fastest way to make No Name known! Remember, we're a commonality without a banner or name. To be known, to attract strong companions, we need to make a name for ourselves!"
"'No Name,' the commonality that will defeat the Demon Lords—at least now, that's something people will remember."
Sakamaki Izayoi argued, and Kuro Usagi looked helpless. He was right, but his actions were excessive—it was tantamount to provoking and declaring war on the Demon Lords.
But it was done; complaining was useless. They could only proceed step by step. To fulfill Kuro Usagi's wish of recovering her former companions and reclaiming her commonality's spirit and name, they had to declare war on the Demon Lords!
"Speaking of which, where's Arthas? He came with us."
Kuro Usagi looked around curiously, unable to find Arthas.
"Who knows? Probably found it boring and went home," Sakamaki Izayoi said, and the group prepared to return.
No Name headquarters, the main hall.
Before Kuro Usagi and the others returned, Arthas had carried the sleeping Leticia back.
After placing her gently on the sofa, Arthas breathed a sigh of relief, moving slightly away from her.
Staying any longer, he wasn't sure what he might do.
In their brief contact, Arthas had discovered that the girl was a vampire.
Her unique scent had captivated him, almost driving him to do something reckless with her in a secluded alley.
Ugh… it's all Fran's fault, leaving me with these aftereffects.
Muttering to himself, Arthas looked at the girl's peaceful sleeping face.
Her tear tracks were gone, how they disappeared, only Arthas knew.
"Damn this World's Sin… why does it keep haunting me?"
His movements became increasingly rough as his hand slipped under her clothing, tracing the soft, delicate skin.
The smooth, supple texture sent shivers down his spine.
This touch felt like salvation to Arthas, but it didn't extinguish the fire within him; it only intensified it.
"Damn it… I can't control myself. Why…? Why are you so alluring, so cute…"
Just as Arthas was about to lose control and violate the girl lying defenseless before him, a loud thud came from behind.
"Idiot! Why would you kick down your own commonality's door?!"
"Aaaaaah… sorry, sorry. Habit… habit."
Sakamaki Izayoi and Kuro Usagi's voices followed.
Arthas instantly regained his composure, pulling his hands away, causing Leticia to let out a cute moan.
Quickly tidying the girl's slightly disheveled clothes, Arthas collapsed onto the sofa, gasping for breath, as if he'd just endured a grueling battle.
"Really… it's not my fault. She's a vampire… a vampire who stirred the dormant World's Sin."
Seeing Leticia, whose only visible effect was a slight blush on her cheeks, Arthas breathed a sigh of relief, shamelessly blaming Leticia for his loss of control.
Kuro Usagi and Sakamaki Izayoi entered the hall.
Seeing Arthas and Leticia, Kuro Usagi froze.
"Leticia-sama?! Why is Leticia-sama here?!"
"Shh, keep your voice down. She's asleep."
Arthas said nervously, afraid of waking Leticia. Kuro Usagi nodded frantically, covering her mouth, tears of joy welling up in her eyes.
