Chapter 2374 The Lion King Mechanism

half year later.

In a shrine deep in the forest in midsummer, a young girl is kneeling quietly in the center of the worship hall. She is wearing a dark blue sailor suit. Sharp brilliance.

At this moment, the girl showed some doubts.

"Xiangami Island?"

"That's right, Himeragi Yukina."

The quiet and steady voice from the other side of the curtain made the girl tense her body instinctively.

"Although according to the schedule, you still need to practice for four months to obtain the qualification of a swordsman. But now, the situation has changed—in a word, you should take a look at this first."

Along with the words, a butterfly made of paper flew out from the gap in the imperial curtain, landed on Himeragi Yukina's hand, and turned into a photo.

The girl took the photo and looked carefully, only to see a girl with long white hair on the photo, she seemed to be about the same age as herself, wearing a black robe, wearing a three-cornered hat like a witch, with a calm and calm expression on her face. soft smile.

"This photo is...?"

"Her name is Xiao Aili, have you heard of it?"

"No."

Xuecai shook her head, she was sure that she had never heard of this name before, but the characters in the photo seemed familiar to her.

"And what about the 'Silver Witch'?"

"what………………"

Hearing this title, Himeragi Yukina suddenly realized that although she was still a trainee, she knew a thing or two about the famous magicians in Japan, especially the "Silver Witch". It was rumored that she died at the age of twelve. He became a magician at an unimaginable speed, and has been quite active since then. For all those who are interested in becoming a magician, this is a piece of information that cannot be ignored.

"Himiragi Yukina, your task is to go to Xiangami Island as a trainee attack mage, and partner with this silver witch... Of course, this is just the appearance, in fact, there is only one task for you—to monitor the fourth True Ancestor Akari, if you judge that the other party is a dangerous existence, then please kill him with all your strength."

"Hey?"

Hearing this, Yukina froze for a moment, then jumped up immediately.

"Wait, please wait a moment... the fourth true ancestor? Isn't that just a legend? Besides, the Silver Witch is a magician, how could she be the fourth true ancestor? No, no, no, if she is the true ancestor, why? Will become a magician?!"

Because she was so surprised, Yukina's words were a bit out of line at the moment, but this was also normal, after all, even if it was a rumor, she had heard about the Fourth True Ancestor.

Yebo Yanguang, the fourth true ancestor who leads the twelve beasts, is the only and strongest vampire who does not have any blood compatriots. But in fact there is no evidence to prove the existence of the Fourth True Ancestor, and basically everyone thinks it is just a rumor.

"Indeed, there are only three recognized True Ancestors, the 'Forgotten Warlord' who dominates Europe, the 'Pupil of Extinction' who dominates Western Asia, and the 'Prince of Chaos' who rules America—compared to them, the Fourth True Ancestor is not If you don't have your own blood, you don't have a territory. But even so, it can't prove that the fourth true ancestor doesn't exist...In fact, we spent a lot of effort to confirm this unbelievable fact."

Speaking of this, the voice from the other side of the curtain seemed a little unbelievable.

"As for your other questions, I can answer them. The reason why the Silver Witch became a magician is because she was once a human being—and not long ago."

"Hey?"

"According to the report, two years ago, she was just a girl with the talent of a witch. However, in an incident, she fought against the newly awakened Fourth True Ancestor and devoured it. Only then did we learn that this The child appears to be partly of vampiric blood."

“……………………”

Hearing this, Xuecai looked at the photo in surprise. Judging from the photo, the girl in front of her was about fourteen or fifteen years old. Two years ago, she was twelve or thirteen years old... At that time, she dared to Fight against the true ancestor alone? Although it is said to be the True Ancestor who has just awakened, but that is also the True Ancestor!

"Not only that."

Just when Yukina was inexplicably astonished, another voice behind Yulian continued.

"At that time, we all thought that the girl was just lucky enough to defeat the Fourth True Ancestor. In fact, the Fourth True Ancestor didn't really die, but slept in her body."

That's right.

Hearing this, Xuecai also nodded silently in her heart. If it were her, she might think that this explanation would be more reasonable.

"However, half a year ago, Zaharias, the lord of the Nilepusi Autonomous Region, held a 'Banquet of Flame' in an attempt to awaken the Fourth True Ancestor. As a result, the power of the Fourth True Ancestor sleeping in the body of the Silver Witch was finally awakened until At this time, we finally confirmed that the Fourth True Ancestor was not defeated by the Silver Witch, but was completely devoured and killed by her, so the current Fourth True Ancestor is the Silver Witch."

“……………………”

Xuecai still opened her mouth wide, unable to utter half a word. The process was so dramatic that she didn't know what to say. But soon she shuddered and came to her senses.

"Please, please wait a moment, is this task too heavy for me? I'm still a trainee..."

It's no wonder Yukina is so worried. After all, she is only an apprentice witch, but the other party is a decent mage attacker. Although she has no contact with the Silver Witch before, she has heard about her deeds. Such a powerful mage attacker is The Fourth True Ancestor... This is much more difficult than simple demons and goblins.

"You don't have to worry about that."

Facing Yukina's words, the woman behind Miura replied.

"According to the results of our investigation, the Fourth Primogenitor is very friendly to girls. As long as you go as a partner, she should take good care of you. I will give you another order, Himeragi Yuki Cai, from now on, you must 'close to her with all your strength and monitor her actions'. The procedures for transferring to Caihai Blood Origin where she is located have been completed for you——that's all, then, I wish you success. "

I don't know if it's Himeragi Yukina's illusion, but when she said the last sentence, the female voice from Yuren's side had a trace of uncontrollable... cunning?

For Airi, becoming the Fourth Primogenitor did not bring her much benefit, it should be said... just the opposite.

Ellie's health has gotten worse.

You must know that in her body, the ratio of vampires, werewolves and humans were 1:1:1, but now, because of the resurrection of the power of the fourth primogenitor, the vampire part has become 2:1:1, which directly As a result, Ellie's resistance in front of the sun has been greatly reduced again. Although it is not to the point where Sophie has to write a suicide note when she goes out to watch a comic exhibition, it is not much better.

Not only that, but she has another problem to solve.

That is the beast.

Summoning a beast requires a lot of mana, which is why only vampires choose to raise beasts in their bodies. Because vampires don't age or die, they have enough vitality to squander, while other species don't have this advantage. In other words, although humans can also summon beasts, if they are used many times for a long time, they will die due to exhaustion of vitality.

This is the reason why only vampires use raising beasts as their main way of fighting.

After all, they don't die.

If life is compared to money, then summoning beasts from other races is tantamount to taking advance loans from the bank for consumption, and if you can't repay the loan, you will be completely finished. However, the vampire seems to have opened up unlimited money, and he can use it as he wants, and use it as many times as he wants.

But Ellie couldn't use these beasts.

She could feel these beasts in her body, but she couldn't summon them as she wished. Although this is also a matter of course, after all, he is the newborn Fourth True Ancestor anyway, and the beasts in front of him are all followers of the former Fourth True Ancestor. Although the beasts are obedient to the true ancestor, they also have self-awareness. Right now, they are lurking in Airi's blood, observing their new masters.

Whether they can be recognized is another question.

And Ellie doesn't particularly want to be recognized. As far as the current situation is concerned, although these beasts are powerful, they are not easy to control. It can even be said that they are too powerful to be dangerous.

If it is placed on the battlefield of a country, it will be very useful if it is released in the face of thousands of enemies, but if it is only for chasing fugitives... No one would use a ballistic missile to defeat a thief, right? ?

So today, Ellie was also at home preparing dinner for her sister who came home from school.

"Ah, sister! Did you know that there is a transfer student in our class today?"

"yes?"

Hearing Nagisa's report, Airi tilted her head curiously and looked at her.

"It's really rare for a transfer student to come at this time."

"Well, her name is Himeragi Yukina, she is a very cute girl, sister, do you know her?"

"Of course I don't know you, why are you asking me this question?"

Facing Nagisa's question, Airi looked at her suspiciously.

"Because that girl asked me. After I finished introducing myself, she asked me if I had an older sister, and what kind of person you are."

"and then?"

"Of course I told her carefully, such as where we lived before we came to this island, your situation in school, what you like to eat, and the things about Asahi Onion and the others. She said oh!"

"Aha………"

Hearing this, Ellie couldn't help showing a wry smile.

"Don't always say those things, the person concerned will only feel embarrassed after hearing it."

"What does it matter? What I said is the truth. After all, my sister is indeed beautiful, gentle and powerful."

Because of living together since childhood, Nagisa and Airi have a very deep relationship, especially the younger sister always treats her elder sister as an idol, and even often preaches about her sister in the class. I feel embarrassed, I didn't do anything special, but I was praised in the end, and it didn't feel right no matter how I thought about it.

To put it bluntly, the child Nagisa has a serious love affair with her sister—but fortunately, compared to Qiong, she is still normal. At least I didn't run to Ellie's bed in the middle of the night to do something that shouldn't be done, or lock myself in the room and call my sister's name and then indulge in some indescribable delusions.

That would be dangerous.

"Ding dong."

At this moment, the doorbell rang, and Ellie put down the spatula in her hand, turned off the flame and looked at the door. Then she wiped her hands with the scarf and went to the door.

"Come here, who are you looking for?"

While speaking, Ellie opened the door, and outside the door, a very beautiful and cute girl with black hair, wearing the same uniform as Nagisa was standing there. When she saw Ellie, she hurriedly lowered her head a little nervously go.

"That, that... I'm Himeragi who just moved next door, please give me your advice!"

"Himiragi?"

Hearing this surname, Ellie froze for a moment. If she remembered correctly, Nagisa seemed to have mentioned this name just now...

"Ah, it's snow vegetables!!"

At the same time, Nagisa's excited screams came from behind Ellie, and the next moment, Nagisa ran to the door with a smile, and grabbed the black-haired girl in front of her.

"Sister, this is the transfer student I just introduced to you!"
