Asuka of the Scarlet Sky
Chapter 26

When the blade reaches (3)

Ameeezzzing

Yuuto instinctively muttered.

In an instant. That kind of word is even cheap, Ristys movement was skillful.

Yuuto looked up the sky, the corpse was disassembled like a mysterious art, among them was the body of the demonic being that looks like a clown, it popped out and go towards all direction.

Perhaps its blinking.

Strong

The rank fourth in the hero ranking. Risty ofDual Sovereignty

Both Yuuto and Asuka looked up to the sky admiringly.

Relief exceed in the mind of the two people, they gradually spread.,

They shouldnt have done that.

Yuuto saw.

From the angle invisible to Risty. The neck of the nekyuara expressed a eerie smile.

!?

While Risty was staying in the air. A dark red string gushed out from the section of its head and its limbs.

To be clear, its a hardening magic.

Ristys sword cut most of it. However, that red string changed to a red fog.

Captain!

Asuka shouted. However, when Asuka jumped the red fog reached Ristys mouth, it entered with a earth shattering force.

Nbu!?

Risty instinctively held down her throat, her breathing stopped. However, with that much resistance, the nekyuara isnt naive. The sweat gland on her skin, the mucous membrane on her eye socket, red fog invade Risty from everywhere.

(C-could this guy! Theres no way!)

*Kurari*, Ristys thought wavered.

Not only her magic, but also an outrageous amount of life force. Risty understood the ability of the nekyuara.

Its body accepts whats given1

Spinning life, then taking it. Its a wicked sense of beauty that doesnt have a body.

72 Pillars of the demon group, Artist Nekyuara

Its definitely an S rank.

(We misunderstood!?)

With her consciousness being eroded, Asuka jumped and looked at Risty. Her face looks like shes wondering what to do, the color of confusion is stuck on her.

Na

Before she was able to speak, a black feeling began to flow. Slowly, her consciousness crawl into corruption.

Ristys brain. Deeper than that, on the root part. The place called soul. That place, a black sense of beauty erodes it.

I am nekyuara. You are nekyuara2You like to play, you will happily accept. Lets play. Until you die. Until your body dies

*Dokun*, Ristys body jumped up.

The white face that laughs satisfactorily is recognized, Ristys own consciousness is swallowed by the red fog and dark mud.

*poton*, Ristys existence is rewritten.

Thats right! Im nekyuara

The artists face laughs happily.

Merunaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!3

Then, it was cut.

Threat. Ristys shout blows away the consciousness of the nekyuara.

Spirit. Consciousness. Existence. Nekyuaras soul disappeared in the sky along with the resentment.

Haahaa

Risty finally landed on the ground. Asuka al;so was relieved and went next to Risty.

Captain Risty! Are you okay!?

Asuka approaches Risty in panic. Yuuto also walked towards Risty.

Captain!!?

However, Yuuto and Asukas movement stopped.

Right hand. Ristys right hand expands and turning. Ristys will shouted Dont come!

Risty looked back.

Her face is calm like always.

Sorry. I failed. This is as far as I go

The 72 pillars of the demon group. The soul of theArtistNekyuara disappeared. She was exhausted playing, theres no more artist in the demon world anymore.

However, that dark grudge. The slow sense of beauty. The passion of hoplessness. Ristys soul was applied with a curse.

(Sorry. Princess)

Recalling the face of her beloved on her last moments, Risty beheaded herself.

She tried to.

Perhaps, with a variation of moment. Reluctant to part with her beloved, Ristys blade was delayed.

Suddenly, Ristys blade was stopped by a by a leather.

!

To Ristys eyes, Asuka and Yuuto seems to shout something. Looking at the two, Risty moved her body and muster strength for the last time.

The blade digs into her neck. The blood overflowed, then Risty lost power.

The curse has finished sinking to Ristys soul.

Run away

She no longer has the power to shout those words.

Captain? How are you

Risty stopped moving, Yuuto tried to approach her.

Asuka-sama?

His steps was stopped by Asukas left hand. Whats wrong?, Yuuto looked at Asuka.

Yuuto. Get ready. Please

Yuuto tilded his head due to Asukas words. Why? Didnt just the enemy defeated right now, Yuutos eyes appealed to Asuka.

What are you saying

Seeing Asukas expression, Yuuto realized. He actually had a premonition.

Slowly, Yuuto turned around to Risty.

Kuku

She stood up. Grinning, Risty smiled at Asuka and Yuuto.

Smile. Its known. Yuuto knows this smile.

(But, this is)

Different. Its definitely different. Captain Risty doesnt laugh this way. She looks fine but something is different. Yuuto stepped back from the Risty in front of him.

Get ready Yuuto!!

Asuka shuoted, Yuutos body stopped in surprise.

Clattering, he held his right hand. Its trembling, but its not due to fear.

Fufu, Im glad. Yuuto, Asuka. I want to fight you two with all my power once

*Koki Koki*, Ristys neck sounded. The blood has already stopped on the wound in her neck.

Captain?

Yuuto. I got wet again. Just like that time, lets mix to the limit

*Perori*, Risty licked her lips.

Guessing danger instinctively from that face, Yuuto understood too late.

Risty already became the enemy.
