Chapter 108: The Last Ray Of Sunlight Before Dusk
(A few minutes ago)
Elizabeth was running desperately onto the train.
She opened one stall, then rushed to another.
A deep anxiety was emerging more and more.
(WHERE?)
She reached the back of the vehicle and looked around in distress.
She had checked the entire cabin and toilets, but Hope was nowhere in sight.
(Peters wouldn't lie about that...I know he was supposed to take that one... So where?!)
She took a few seconds to think about her brother's position when she realized.
She remembered his strange behavior lately and turned her gaze to the windows.
"That idiot!"
She rushed out of the train and did a phenomenal bond, disappearing from the station in an instant.
Behind her, the doors closed and the train began its journey.
* * *
She held her sword tightly and a white aura began to cover it.
Peters frowned and covered himself in his black aura.
"A battle between you and me will destroy this place, think about what you're doing!"
"That's the point, moron! I'm doing this my way now!"
"I thought we had an accord, what's wrong with you?!"
He stood guard, ready to intercept the missile in front of him.
"By the way, Saint Peet, if you go all out, we will destroy this building."
"So don't be crazy and..."
"But if you don't resist, I will do it gently and we won't make the Queen fall 50 meters so... whatever happens, it's your fault."
He opened wide his eyes in disbelief.
"Why do you even need a handicap, for God's sake?!"
A blinding light covered the area and the building shook.
At the top, Agiel smiled and dialed a number on his phone.
"There's a troublemaker at the base, the Queen needs you to delay her as long as possible."
A figure in a dark room yawned long and responded in a monotone voice.
"How embarrassing... Very well, very well, if it is for her majesty."
In the hall, several people gathered, worried about the origin of the explosion.
They reached the huge door when another explosion blew it open.
In the rubble, Elizabeth moved forward with determined steps.
She looked at everyone and placed a hand on her hip.
"Alright, now listen, if you don't want your wives, your children or your mistress to mourn your death, get behind me, I'll give you 10 seconds."
The people looked confused and murmured among themselves, but when Elizabeth raised her sword, they fled in panic.
Elizabeth held her position for a few seconds before jumping forward.
A new explosion shook the building, scientists run in all directions and activate the surveillance cameras.
They managed to catch a glimpse of the legend before losing contact, followed by another earthquake.
"It's bad! The building is going to collapse!"
"What is she doing?!"
"Hurry up, call the Holy Knights! If it goes higher, it will affect the transfusion module!"
They exclaimed in panic, running around until Agiel's applause brought silence.
"Calm down everyone, everything is under control."
"But sir, she could damage the pipes that feed Greed."
"Don't worry, like I said, everything is under control. Keep an eye on the Genesis ratio."
Several floors down, Elizabeth reached a huge hallway.
She started running forward, but as she reached the door to the next room, she flinched and jumped backward, and just then, the floor in front of the door exploded.
Smoke spread from the impact zone and gradually covered the corridor, Elizabeth kept calm and looked around her.
A few laughs arose.
"Aw... She really dodged it..."
"That's the legend for you."
In the smoke, humanoid shadows surrounded Elizabeth.
The young woman nodded and released a wave of energy that swept away the cloud of smoke.
Around her, four women stood, each displaying animal features.
"The Queen's Nymphs... Of course."
A woman with short, curly orange hair and big cat ears started laughing.
"Remember us? I feel honored."
"Speaking of honor... uh... can I ask for an autograph? Asking for a friend." A mouse-eared woman asked shyly.
Elizabeth raised her head to the ceiling and gradually covered herself with her aura, alarming the nymphs.
"So hasty..." A woman with black hair and bat ears came out of the hole in the ground. "Girls, could we stop being stupid for a second?"
"But I'm so good at this..." the mouse-eared girl complained.
"I'll give you a cheese if you're a good girl, everyone in position, order: delay the legend as long as necessary and without causing serious damage to the building. I will reinforce the wall, you concentrate on her."
She turned into a shadow and melted into the ground, the others stood in front of the door.
"Whenever you want, legend." Said the cat-eared woman.
Elizabeth raised her eyebrows and raised her sword.
"Okay... She's going to reinforce the walls? So I'm going to take it a little more seriously..."
A blinding light covered the place and the building shook even more than before.
Most of the scientists fell to the ground, Agiel, with an impressed smile pressed a button on his watch.
"Saint Agharita, Saint Leo, please come back to the building, we need more claws."
In the hallway, a huge hole was the result of Elizabeth's attack.
She lowered herself and then jumped, crossing the entire upper floor in an instant.
She swung her sword, but instead of hitting a wall, it hit a dark matter.
Behind her, the car girl and the fox appeared their eyes glowing orange.
"I see... you have her blessings too."
She swung her sword in their direction, overwhelming them with light.
"Voracity"
A red flash covered the atmosphere and Elizabeth's attack vanished, as if she had just hit the void.
She glanced behind her and noticed the mouse eared girl.
"Long range is a no go... Buster Blade"
A blue aura covered her sword, she leaned backward, in a swinging stance, frightening the mouse woman.
"Hiiiiii!!! She's going serious! She's going serious!"
Elizabeth vanished and reappeared right above her head.
"You asked for my autograph?"
Before the girl could even understand what was happening, a blue flash crushed her and crossed the floor, throwing her to the top bottom.
The fox girl reappeared, a few centimeters behind Elizabeth.
"Bloody bite"
Her teeth planted on Elizabeth's shoulder, but couldn't penetrate her skin, to her surprise.
Her view went white, as Elizabeth, vanished and reappeared above her before planting her head in the ground with a destructive stomp.
The cat girl flinched and jumped back.
"Seriously... What are you made of?"
"Muscles and pure love." She raised her sword again and the light still engulfed the room.
The building shook once more, everyone was watching in surveillance camera the prowess of the legend.
Petals of rose covered her location, and soon, roots covered the whole place.
It was the signature of the Holy Knight Saint Leo, a garden of brambles and toxic vegetation growing constantly and used here as a shield.
He held a fencing sword and stood still, thinking.
"You could have just jumped to the top from the beginning... why waste time by running around the whole building?"
He could only have a few seconds to rest before his wall exploded.
Elizabeth walked through bits of disintegrating brambles.
"... Give me a break, we can't go all out so at least go smaller on us."
"I'm going small from the beginning." She said while raising her sword.
A shadow crossed the room and the woman with bat's ear came out of the wall.
"Good, Saint Leo, I'm too tired to deal with this thing. Leaving the rest to you, bye!"
"Wait... What?!"
The light covered them again, and the building shook.
Outside, near some rubble, Agharita stood beside Peters, sitting angrily.
"Come on, don't tell me you're giving up."
"What else do you want me to do? She won't hesitate to fight seriously if you show resistance, I prefer to let the Queen deal with this than getting punished for having destroyed the laboratory... with her inside."
"Well... at least she's giving us some time by climbing the building... I wonder why she didn't just jump on the top."
Peters sighed and looked at the vortex in the sky.
"Her brother didn't take the train, so she thinks he is here."
Agharita giggled and crossed her arms.
"Hm... Such a good sister... what a pity, I wouldn't mind having her in the Holy....!!!!"
At this moment, Agharita flinched and looked above.
Peters noticed and stood up.
"What? Did you feel something in the Rift?"
"... Peters..."
Peters frowned momentarily then flinched and looked above too.
Both had their eyes in the sky, but not to watch the Rift.
They were focused on the top of the building.
Inside the laboratory, the scientists watched in amazement as Elizabeth ridiculed Saint Leo.
They became afraid of their fate if the young woman reached them, they knew her goal was against the Queen's will and thus they would have to pay the price one way or another.
One of them, desperate to see a miracle turned toward Agiel when he noticed a change in his gaze.
Agiel was intently observing a specific direction, with a worried expression.
The scientist followed his gauze and put the tank where Dora was bathing in orange liquid.
He nodded, a little intrigued when he finally noticed it.
"...Where are the compressed soul stones? Hey, who stopped the injection?"
His colleagues looked at him and then rushed towards numerous computers.
"Did she destroy a pipe?... Uh? No, it still works."
"Hm? Look, there are still soul stones in stock... Why did it disappear?"
"... Oh no, guys! Greed's vital signs are diminishing!"
They turned to a computer displaying several symbols and a silhouette, the numbers displayed were dropping dangerously and the Heat zones were turning blue.
"Heart rate less than 45 beats!"
"Body temperature below 34°C! We're losing him!"
In the tank, Dora was motionless, but somewhere in her head, a phenomenal hurricane was happening.
