On the street, the roar of an engine sounded, and zombies were crushed by the large pickup truck.
Shizuka was driving, while Saeko sat in the back with Rei and Saya. Abel sat in the passenger seat, leaning against the window, and closing his eyes.
After Saeko invited the two to join the team, Shizuka drove the group towards Rika's house. Everything seemed to be back on track.
Rei and Saya looked at the boy in the passenger seat with some curiosity. Both Saeko and Shizuka seemed to defer to him.
Rei leaned close to Saeko and quietly asked, "Senpai, who is that boy? What's his name? Is he your boyfriend?"
When Rei mentioned Abel as her boyfriend, Saeko's cheeks flushed slightly, and she secretly glanced at Abel. Then she shook her head with a red face.
Saya pushed up her glasses, guessing it was unrequited love, and Rei felt a bit of pity.
As for his name, Saeko paused. It seemed she didn't know her master's name either, but that didn't stop her from introducing him.
"He is my master."
"Eh!"
Hearing Saeko's address for the man in front of them, Rei and Saya both widened their eyes.
Ma… Master!?
The school's renowned figure, the captain of the Kendo Club, the national champion, actually called someone 'master'? Is this part of some kinky roleplay? And you still say you two aren't a couple?!
Seeing their expressions, Saeko didn't explain, instead asking about their experiences.
As Saeko asked, they found someone to confide in and told her the entire story.
When she heard that Rei's boyfriend was strangled by an invisible force, Saeko was silent for a moment. Of course, she wouldn't be foolish enough to expose Abel.
While the few people in the back seat were chatting, Abel, who was resting with his eyes closed in the passenger seat, was currently opening the Peerage Pack.
[Congratulations, Host, you have received: One Momotaro Rice Ball, one Horse Talisman.]
When he saw the Momotaro Rice Ball, Abel was slightly startled and looked at the description.
[Momotaro Rice Ball: Feed it to a beast to completely tame it, making it obey the user's commands.]
Abel felt it wasn't very useful at the moment. This thing doesn't seem to be of much use in the main world, does it?
He just didn't know if it would work on Fenrir. If it did, that would be great.
Thinking this, he put it into the Kamui Dimension.
Then he looked at the Horse Talisman, a smile on his lips.
Authority of Theft!
The demonic energy in the talisman was stolen by Abel and merged into his body.
...
Time passed bit by bit.
The group arrived at a three-story villa and everyone got out.
Abel surveyed the house in front of him. It wasn't bad and could serve as a temporary base.
"Saeko, go clear out the zombies nearby. Shizuka, take them inside and tidy up the rooms."
"Okay."
Abel, on the other hand, went to a room. After closing the door, he began to prepare a teleportation array.
Drawing the diagram and injecting demonic power. The next step was to find the main world.
Of course, Abel also didn't forget to set up a barrier. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to see it after entering.
Having done everything, he closed his eyes and following the demonic power, he began to search for his main world.
After a while, Abel opened his eyes. "Found it."
Abel injected spatial energy, and the array glowed brightly.
A teleportation array spanning worlds was completed.
...
Bang!
The last zombie on the street was perfectly dealt with, and Saeko's panting gradually stabilized.
She walked towards a man leaning against a wall, holding a little girl.
They were Maresato Alice and her father.
The man's arm now had a bitten-open wound. Blood flowed down his arm, and the normally red blood was now somewhat black.
Saeko said, "Sir, you should know the consequences of being bitten, right?"
Hearing Saeko's words, the man's eyes dimmed, and he nodded. He naturally knew the consequences of being bitten. His wife had left him that way. He could face death calmly, but he still had his daughter.
He smiled helplessly. "Miss... can you take care of my daughter? She... she doesn't eat much, she can learn anything. Can she follow you?"
Saying this, he pushed the little girl next to him towards her.
"Daddy."
The little girl tightly clutched the man's clothes, her eyes filled with fear and reluctance.
"Alice, be good, follow big sister. Daddy... Daddy is going to see Mommy now."
"No, I want Daddy!"
Saeko squatted down and looked at Alice gently. "Don't worry, I will take good care of her."
The man, having received the assurance, nodded gratefully.
Saeko used a little bit of hypnotic ability to make Alice fall asleep and picked her up.
Just then, the man began to cough. He covered his mouth with his hand, black blood flowing through his fingers.
"Looks like time is running out." He said self-deprecatingly, then looked at Saeko, "I'm troubling you. I want to die as a human."
Saeko was silent for a moment, then nodded. She held her sword with one hand, flames emanating from the blade.
Seeing this, the man showed a carefree smile. He knew his daughter could live well in this world.
"Go in peace."
Saeko swung the sword in her hand, and the man passed away peacefully. Flames burned his body, turning it into ashes.
Having done everything, Saeko carried Alice and walked towards the villa.
