I snapped my fingers.
"You are going to betray the entire world—Ah…"
A mouthful of blood spilled from Dantalian's mouth.
She slowly turned her gaze behind her.
The dome of red stood tall, all over it, were images of a squirrel trying to steal nuts, the Don Chiik.
A smile spread over my face as Dantalian turned further back.
"Y…you..?"
Stabbing an axe through her stomach was a woman with a bright smile.
"How are you alive…"
Her black and white hair fluttered in the wind while her purple eyes gleamed with satisfaction.
"I wanted to stab you for so long, bitch."
"Noa… Roselle?"
"How are you alive…"
Her black and white hair fluttered in the wind while her purple eyes gleamed with satisfaction.
"I wanted to stab you for so long, bitch."
"Noa… Roselle?"
A chuckle spilled from my lips at the sight in front of me.
"Haha…" I held my head and bent forward, but no matter how hard I tried, it was impossible to not laugh. "Hahaha…. HAHAha…. HAHAHAHAH! HAHAHAHAA!"
"Woah… nailed the evil laugh."
"Right? My Eugy probably wasn't manipulated, he was always like this—"
"Quiet," I said. Turning to Dantalian with a wide smirk on my face, I ran my hand over her cheeks.
"What a lovely face you make when you're betrayed, stupid stupid demon."
"Kuh… you can't… see…"
"Spiritually, spiritually… Don't mind those details." With the same snarky grin, I kicked my legs around and started strolling over the terrace of the third clubhouse. Don Chiik down below was entertaining the students well, no one would ever notice what was happening here.
Dantalian seemed ready to make a quick move, but Noa twisted the axe in her stomach.
"When…" Dantalian muttered, bleeding more. Her eyes must have bulged out enough to drop to the ground by now.
Titania laughed at the pathetic display and flew over to my shoulders.
"From the beginning, you stupid idiot."
Titania landed well on my palms and smiled brightly while looking at Dantalian.
"You shouldn't have gone after my partner in the first place."
The breeze on the terrace fluttered over all our hair, the scent of her demon blood flew to my nose, making this all the more satisfying.
"B-but… the evil queen…"
Noa pulled Dantalian's head back.
"You're right about that," Titania said. "You did good assuming I would switch sides. But to whom is important."
"We're cut of the same cloth, me and Titania, she'll switch sides, but only over to the victor."
"Kuh…"
I laughed again at that confused groan.
Exactly, you stupid bitch.
"'I expected more.' At first I thought she had said this to me, but thanks to you, I had well over 20 years to ponder it. In the first place, no one could create a place like that just to face their memories, it was obviously an attack."
And the one my darling fairy expected more from.
"Was the attacker."
Titania burst into laughter.
"Splendid, it was truly splendid! You see, I and Titania are bound through our souls. If I die, she would too. In such a situation it only made sense to terminate the contract, but she never did. Of course, death includes becoming your puppet as what was happening since the start."
"I was weakened considerably," Titania continued, "But that the contract still continued was proof that we were still partners."
"Fuck! Fuck… you think… I would have… lost to this bastard?"
Noa pulled the axe slightly back and slapped the back of Dantalian's head.
"Say that before you lose."
Not untrue.
I moved closer and stepped on Dantalian's toes.
"Don't be sad, you contributed just as much."
Her head shook.
"It was splendid, throwing the real Eugene Hall after me, that was definitely the straw that had me moving to your palms. But you gave me the perfect clue to figure out your blind spot."
Dantalian didn't seem to have realized it yet.
"Don't you remember, what you said about the mask?"
[If it was in your spatial dimension I would've been in trouble, but my dear Charlotte's ring absorbed me right up.]
"No… way… from that?" Dantalian said.
"Now now, don't give yourself TOO much credit."
I grinned again. It was starting to get tough to even keep a straight face in front of this loser.
"I already knew you could read my thoughts, that's why I had to always be in your palms. I was losing myself so I could win against you from the beginning."
"Then… Noa… Roselle?"
"It was planned, obviously."
"Hey, bitch. It wasn't planned at all?" Noa muttered, angry.
I raised my hands and shrugged. I was willing to let her take over for a bit.
"But he did know about me before hand. Choosing me as his 'first' victim was a surety before you even met him."
"How…?"
The first thing losers do, is determine what caused their defeat.
And the entire world was a loser in the first round, and it was defeated by none other than Dantalian.
Before the entrance exams even started, I had received information on the 'main characters' enough from Albert.
"I was always aware of how much of an absurd genius Noa Roselle was, I was also aware how I could kidnap her."
"Kidnap…?"
"I was so surprised, you know? He pulled some killer move of some kind and the next thing I knew, I was in a spatial dimension!"
"IMPOSSIBLE!!" Dantalian screamed in rage. It earned her another slap from Noa. "Spatial dimensions can't house humans!"
"A humans' can't," I said. "But unfortunately for you, I've been learning magic from the best."
Titania chimed in again. "I figured out he wasn't killing her from the moment he said the attack's name. How many times do you think I've seen him pull it off?"
That form was created under Titania.
"It was sudden, but I made it possible for him to store a human in his spatial dimension," Titania said. "That was risky."
"Sure was, I was worried she would figure it out."
"Impossible, you've never had thoughts of Noa Roselle…! I would've… figured all conversations."
"Oh, I was just coming to that."
I walked closer and started stroking Dantalian's horns.
"What do you think I learned the ancient languages for?"
"It was tiring," Noa said. "But I managed to learn it too. Your notes were pretty neat, Eugene, but I have to say, your personality is one shitty personality."
"Be flexible, I was under… influence?"
"Fair enough."
"Languages… don't hinder me…"
Noa grinned at those words.
"I told you," she said.
I shrugged.
"I thought it would, but Noa was right thinking it wouldn't. That's why, we only communicated using code from the many many books."
Dantalian trembled again.
"I let her approach me first. I was sure she would, seeing how much of a genius she is."
"Thank you!" Noa said. "That's pretty sweet."
"Shut up. I wasn't praising you."
"Bitch, I should've killed you in the tower."
"Says the actual helpless bitch!"
"Guys, can you stop quarreling." Titania swooped in with the rational take everyone disliked. Well, our cool reveal moment was still going on so it was fine.
"Code… you bitches…"
"Ninety-nine percent of that conversation was useless though. We planned things easy, and the rest was Noa asking for some super Forbidden Romance BL book."
"Don't insult my books! They are great, alright?"
"Why BL!? I ruined my reputation because of you!"
"What's wrong with BL. You talk like you won't read it."
"I might, but that's beside the point."
The two of us glared at each other. To release our frustration, we both hit Dantalian again.
"Your ancient magic was useless, whatever you planned, Noa would change it up."
"Finding the time to attack was still slightly tricky, I won't lie."
I yawned and stretched my hands.
"I had to figure out how you were reading minds so I could attack from the perfect spot."
Dantalian's mouth fell wide open.
A grin spread through my face.
"Exactly, you dumb skank. All that checking status and potential? I was figuring out your range."
"Impossible…"
"Anything you lay your eyes on, huh? Making you switch that quick and knowing your personality, it was easy to guess things. It's quite the ability, I must say."
"I… don't believe… this…"
"You have to, darling."
Noa leaned closer to her ears and whispered.
"This is your loss."
"No! No!"
She yanked the axe out, and Dantalian fell to the ground.
I grabbed her head in my hands before she could do anything and raised her up.
"This is for Dawn, you little shit."
"O-outer gods!"
We stopped.
"I know a way to unseal the outer gods! If you kill me, they will all be able to enter this place!"
In a final push of bravado, she dropped a bomb.
"What will you do! If you kill me, this precious world of yours will be over!"
Noa, I and Titania all looked at Dantalian and blinked our eyes.
Then, we laughed.
"HAHAHA!"
"Look at this!"
"Unreal. How stupid!"
Dantalian trembled in fear as I raised her head higher.
"I've always wanted to slash them dead."
"Outer gods seem interesting even to a fairy like me."
"Just because we won't do it with you..." I said. "Doesn't mean we won't bring the world to it's end."
"No! No no no!"
"Goodbye, trash."
