If I Can Go to Meet With You
Dig Volt
Purple light got shot from the hand of a small person wearing a robe. Several goblins got entangled by the lightning attack inside the dark dungeon.
GIIIIII!
But one of them didnt die even after getting burned by the attack and leaped with its rusty short sword.
Gust
A gust burst out from the hand of the robed person in that moment. It blew away the goblin just before its attack landed.
Guillotine
The right hand quickly fired a wind blade and lopped off the goblins head. The head rolled on the ground with an expression of anguish and exposed its red top part.
fuu
That robed personCarla Lester pulled down her hood and let out a sigh.
She was in the fifteenth floor of the large scale dungeon, located in a territory under the direct control of the royal family that was managed by Lester House. She had continuously entered inside by herself, but this area was her limit. She would be able to go slightly deeper if she camped inside the dungeon, but even that would be difficult because she didnt have any comrade who she could trust to stand guard.
Carla flipped her arm sleeve and exposed a gash underneath it. The gash was turning into purple color. It was clearly poison. The short sword of the goblin that grazed her just now must be coated with poison.
Treat
Carla licked the wound to ascertain the poison and simply neutralized the poison, but she postponed healing the wound for later. She left that spot and found a place that was located in a blind spot. There she reached her limit and sat down.
Her complexion clearly looked bad and not just because of the poison. She prioritized neutralizing the poison despite having Poison Resistance skill and postponed healing the wound despite her low stamina because.
My mana isnt enough.
Carla muttered and took out a vegetable cookie from her spatially expanded bag. She nibbled on it and washed it down with mana recovery potion.
The group of monster that appeared at the fifteenth floor would stop being rank 1. Monster of rank 4 and above still wouldnt appear in that floor but, in that place rank 3 monsters would start appearing in group. The monsters she defeated just now also werent mere goblin, but rank 3 goblin variant called Red Cap. They had scout type skills and used poison.
Carla was also rank 3 but, the risk of her getting wounded would increase if monsters that were also rank 3 appeared in group. After all there was also a case like just now where she failed to defeat the opponent in one attack.
Few of the sorcery with rank below 3 was area attack. There was only the Water Ball of water sorcery among the ordinary sorcery, but it wasnt strong enough to be used against enemy of rank 3 and above.
To solve that problem Carla used lightning type sorcery that was a combination of water and wind, but Dig Volt simply had the tendency of scattering. It was hard to call it as a proper area attack. The damage it dealt on multiple opponents was unevenly distributed.
Because of that she would suffer wound and used sorcery even more to heal her injury and defeat the enemy that got away. It consumed her mana pointlessly and also slowed down her exploration speed.
She put rations and potions into her spatially expanded bag so she could dive into dungeon for a long time, but there was also a limit to that. From the start she was a light eater and she wouldnt even mind to skip eating, but the prolonged battles shaved down her stamina that was already small from the start, making her needing to take a break no matter what like now.
If its her, shell definitely be alright even by herself.
*Pakin*She munched on the hard baked cookie while her mind turned toward the ash covered girl who changed her fate.
The aloof girl who said that she would kill her, Aria.
When she heard the rumor that the Ash Crowned Princess who destroyed a branch of assassin guild was also still a very young girl, Carla got the hunch that it was Aria.
She was alive. Even now she was placing herself in a battlefield for survival and continued to polish her fangs. She was being very spoiled compared to that. A battle where the strength of the encountered enemy was known was no different than mere work. She too had to become stronger no matter what for the coming battle to the death against that girl, Carla thought with a dark smile.
I need to go a step higher.
The limit of ordinary person was rank 3. Putting it another way, even ordinary person could reach that stage as long as they didnt slack off and put in effort. Going above rank 4 was a territory that could only be reached by those who surpassed their own limits. Carla imagined that she would reach rank 4 during her stay in the academy, but she felt that would be insufficient compared to Arias resolve.
I want strength
Since she killed her brothers when she was five, she dreamed of killing her father and engulfing this country in flame. She was seeking strength to make that dream came true. She couldnt live without getting stronger. Day by day her father, mother, and servants were wishing for her death. She also obtained Poison Resistance during that and since then Carla stopped eating food in her home.
She wanted to become strong in order to live and kill. But just that alone was no good.
The current Carla earnestly wanted to become even stronger for the sake of Aria who accepted that she would fight her to the death.
BUMOOOOOOOOOOO!
Her lovely dream of fighting Aria to the death got disturbed. Carla looked at the three orcs that suddenly appeared with a chilling gaze and stood up.
Die.
She created multiple Fire Javelins instantly and angrily fired them to mow down the orcs.
*DOOOOOOOONN!!*
BOOOOOOOOOOO!
The orcs crumbled inside the flame. But, one of them didnt die in one hit just like the Red Cap from before. It threw a stone axe in its dying moment, which grazed Carlas side and knocked her away.
Carla hit the dungeons wall and vomited out blood, even so she slowly stood up on her own feet and put her hand on her cheek with a troubled look.
This is troubling. Am I actually weak?

.
Carla let out a small sigh like an ignorant young lady who went shopping without even knowing the value of currency. Even though she was soaked in blood with the smell of death drifting around her, such gesture really suited Carla who was an actual daughter of a high ranked noble.
The status of Sorcery Attack Power wasnt simply representing the power of a single attack, it was a number that was the equivalent of the body strengthening of close quarter fighter, showing the sorcerers versatility from possessing multiple attributes and their destructive power. There should be almost no rank 3 who could win against Carla if it was judged just from that number, but that was still far away from the ideal that Carla was seeking.
She was used to put her life in danger where she shed blood. She was also used to pain and suffering. She didnt even feel fear toward death. Even if she was wounded with something that would kill even an adult, she wouldnt die right away if she radiated mana of light from her hearts magic stone immediately. That was just a daily routine for Carla. There wasnt a single thing in her current situation that satisfied her.
As I thought, perhaps I should try making use of that.
Although she wanted to burn the capital, her stamina that was like someone at the deaths door worried her. Because of that before this she was also thinking to draw those who wanted to harm the kingdom into the country.
At that time Carla had already encountered Aria and lost interest toward such trifling matter, but then she recalled of the strange story that she once heard from the information broker she was using at that time.
.
I think its around here
Two days after she decided what to do inside that dungeon, Carla made her way toward an area with bad public order inside Lester territory.
Carlas father, Count Lester had a strong sense of arrogance and apathy toward anyone below him. Although he was brilliant as a royal court sorcerer, the same couldnt be said about his capability as a ruler.
Lester House had no interest in anything else than sorcery and their social standing. They left the ruling of the territory to their steward and even that ruling was being done simply by strictly enforcing the law. But the law being strict wasnt equal to the public order being good.
Merchants with sharp wit had left Lester territory. Those who remained only had their sight set on anything related to dungeon and the adventurers. The source of funds for the territory was mainly being covered by the subsidy of managing a large scale dungeon.
Even so the state of the territory wasnt particularly worse compared to other nobles territory. There were many noble houses that ruled like that when they had local specialty or other source of funds. But, there was no way the eyes of the ruler reached until every corner in that kind of place, allowing illegal organizations to take root in that land.
*za*
There was the sound of small pebbles being stepped on. Carla stopped walking and caught sight of several ill-bred looking men at the corner of her eyes.
Oi, girl. Are you the brat who did the killing around here?
Carla quietly turned around after feeling the hostility that the men were directing toward her.
Carla was really thin despite her growth from her magic power. She felt nothing from being called a brat. But to anyone who didnt know Carla, it must be an unnatural scene seeing an adult man asking a kid if she was a murderer.
Carla spoke toward those men without any tension.
Do I know you guys? Im searching for an information broker of the underworld though.
Im asking you if you did it or not.
The middle aged man who seemed to be the leader asked with a threatening voice after seeing Carla playing dumb.
If you dont know then thats fine.
Carla only glanced at that man briefly before losing interest. She then turned her back on him. The mans vein on his forehead throbbed from that treatment. The youngster behind him lost his patience and rushed forward.
You shitty brat, dont ignore big br
*DOGON!*
Without even looking back, Carla lightly waved her hand and rock bullet shot out from there. It pulverized the head of the man who rushed forward.
Just how much strength was put into that sorcery? The body of the man whose head was pulverized didnt get blown away. It only swayed gently before falling. At the same time a lot of blood spurted out and dyed the men around it red.
HIIIIIIIIII!?
The youngsters who instantly had gotten showered in flesh and blood screamed. There were even some who lost strength in their waist and couldnt stand up. But the leader still glared at Carla even under the shower of blood.
I know it, you bastard is the culprit!
Several murder cases had occurred around this area. Nobody would care if the victims were just some beggar or slum dweller, but there were relatives of the men among the victims.
The leader howled pulled out a short sword and attacked Carla.
His combat strength was more than 400he had the strength of an upper rank 3. This man was an assassin has-been who was well known as a skilled fighter even in the underworld. There was a distance of seven meters between Carla and him. It might not matter if the opponent was an ordinary person, but to this man, this distance was short enough to allow him to kill her before she could finish casting.
The man didnt underestimate Carla at all as a mere kid. Their base combat strength was around the same. But, because she was a sorcerer, she would be helpless in this range if he moved earlier. There was simply no kid who could overcome their fear of death when someone came at them with a blade ready to strike.
(Got you!)This chapter is updated by
The short swords tip was about to enter Carlas throat. The man was convinced of his victory.
But, the man noticed at that moment how Carla was looking at him without even blinking. He felt a chill on his back.
Dig Volt
*DODON!*
!?
Lightning attack was fired from in front of Carla. It struck the man and blew him together with his underlings behind him.
Lightning attack had no physical impact. But, by adjusting the lightnings strength, the living target that got hit by it would convulse at the moment before their death. It would cause them to be blown away by their own strength.
Even so there was no child who wouldnt get scared seeing a blade approaching right before their eyes. There were only two exceptions to that rule. It was the mans misfortune that one of them was right before him.
Delicate magic control and courage that a child shouldnt be able to have. If even just one of them was missing, it would be Carla who got defeated. But for Carla this result was an inevitability. It was also the limit of this man who could only measure his opponent based on their combat strength value.
Damnyouu
Oh, youre alive?
The rank 1 and 2 underlings behind the man couldnt endure the lightning and they all died, but the leader alone was still alive even while lying down with smoke rising from his whole body.
But Carla wasnt even bothered that she failed to kill him and looked down with a smile while narrowing her eyes that were surrounded with dark circles.
Well, no wonder. You tried to divert the lightning by quickly filling the blade with mana right? Thats too bad. Even though you might be able to kill me if you didnt abort your attack.
Ku
He lost because he prioritized saving his own life. He lost because his courage was inferior compared to a kid. Carla made such provocation and grabbed the hair of the man who was unable to move. She lifted his head and quietly brought her face closer.
But, this is fortunate. I just cant reach the place because even when I find someone who looks like they know the location Ill just kill them right away. Can you show me the way to the thief guild?
.
It wasnt just the thief guild, but any organization that was aligned with the underworld was hidden from public eye.
Small organization would be disguised as a company or hiding in a residential house, while organization that had existed since a long time would become an existence that couldnt be perceived as a part of that citys history despite being in contact with the public.
In the case of a large scale organization like the thief guild that Carla was searching for, it didnt have a headquarters where everything was managed. Each branch would hide in their respective region and periodically changed their base to escape from the investigation, so Carla couldnt find it.
This is really troubling us young miss. We already asked you to not lay your hand on our member didnt we?
The location was in the reception room of a company that was handling imported goods from other country. The thief guild was using it as their camouflage. There the man was making such snide remark to Carla who was sitting elegantly on the opposite sofa. But she simply smiled cheerfully without any care.
Its your fault that you moved your base. It was them who tried something with me even though I was only asking for the address. You arent educating your men enough.
Ill be more careful next time.
That manthe chief of this guild branch Lloyd harbored muddy black feeling toward Calras attitude. Even so he put on a sincere smile on the surface.
It had been three years since Lloyd got involved with Carla. Their first meeting was caused by a scammer who was a member of the thief guild trying to swindle Carla who was planning to sell materials from dungeon in large amount. The scammer got killed but, Lloyd realized Carlas abnormality quickly and chose to join hand with her rather than getting into hostility with her.
Dungeon materials were precious but, his guild bought them off from Carla with higher price than the market price. He considered it as him paying protection money to Carla.
That decision wasnt a mistake. Right now he wanted to praise his past self for his excellent decision. But at the same time he also regretted. At that time he should abandon everything to the wind and ran away as fast as he could.
The underworld would definitely call him a coward or insane condescendingly if he said something like that. But, the militant big shots and the green underlings who thought like that and tried something with Carla just because they thought she was a child had all gotten burned to death.
It was just as Carla said. He should have taught the members about Carlas appearance and strictly ordered them to not lay their hand on her. But Lloyd didnt do that. He moved the bases address and didnt notify her of the change because of the faint hope in his heart that he might be able to cut off contact with Carla like that.
I also heard how the rumored woman is also a little girl whos still so young. I wonder just whats going on with the young woman of this generation
Lloyd muttered while sighing tiredly. But then he was startled when he saw Carlas eyes shining fierily after he said that.
Dont tell me, you know her?
Yes, shes the only one who can kill me in this world. Shes my important person.
Hearing those words made Lloyd wanted to curse god for making him having to get involved with this kind of girls.
The girl who destroyed the northern branch of assassin guild and crushed several branches of thief guild that tried something with herAsh Crowned Princess .
In the thief guild there was the militant faction that wanted to take revenge on her and the moderate faction that wanted to refrain from getting involved with her to avoid the damage. But even the council that was made up of the representatives from the influential branches managed to decide the policy that the thief guild should take against her.
The damage kept piling up at the present, so the opinions were leaning toward not getting involved with Ash Crowned Princess, but if the council found out that Lloyd had a dealing with a person who was involved with such character, his position as a branch chief would be in danger.
(No, that might not be the case.)
She was a business partner but Carla was also counted as a dangerous character by the thief guild. She said that the Ash Crowned Princess would kill her but, as someone who knew Carla well, he could easily imagine that surely this thing between the two girls would lead to a duel to the death between them.
Regardless of what the council would decide, he refused to try anything with such dangerous character and die because of that. But, if these two extremely dangerous people fought each other to the death, then there wasnt even any point to intentionally take any risk to do anything to them. If Lloyd brought this information to the council, it might enable him to become a member of the council.
But that would be a dangerous gamble. If he leaked information carelessly, he might turn both Carla and Ash Crowned Princess into his enemy. To prevent that he needed to curry favor with Carla to some degree.
***
Three months after thatCarla could be found in a noble territory along the western border.
Distance-wise it should be possible for her to arrive here quicker, but even Carla needed to make some preparation first.
Now thenI wonder where are they.
According to the information that he obtained from the thief guild, there was an eyewitness of that around one year ago. After that there was no more eyewitness report, but it seemed that the number of people who went missing from the remote villages increased since that time period.
People went missing actually wasnt that rare of an occasion. That was even truer at remote villages near the border. Place where human could live in this monster infested world was limited. Mankind was gradually expanding their living habitat from the region along the sea, but then they were unable to get any further after some point.
The reason of the stagnation was because places that were habitable for human itself were rare. Mercenaries who specialized in exploration, the adventurers would find habitable places and removed the monsters from there, but powerful monsters would mercilessly bare their fang if they kept expanding forcefully.
Even if the monsters were removed, people got dispatched, and a village was build to display to the enemies that it was a human habitat, a pioneering village that got reduced into half their number would have to retreat in several years because of the monsters threat.
In case of missing people, naturally the majority of them would be because of monster attack. But even then the victims would be hunter going into the forest or villager who got too far away from the village. It was impossible of people inside the village to go missing without even leaving behind a corpse like the cases this time.
Naturally in such case the villagers would consider it as crime and send petition to the feudal lord, but the incidents would stop happening when knight or soldier got dispatched. Then after a while the missing cases would occur again but in different village.
Setting aside the missing cases, the thief guild in that area also thought whether they could sell this information to the noble, but there was only one eyewitness report and even that information couldnt be firmly proved as being related to the missing people cases, so the idea got discarded. That branch felt dissatisfied about that and sounded out several branch chiefs about buying the information.
Aa, as I thought. Even vampire will die after getting damaged that much.
You-!
Musas eyes opened wide from Carlas words.
Vampirethey were human who changed into monster that sucked blood, but she heard the evil race that had small population overall was accepting even those who changed into monster as clan.
Even so compared to the ordinary dark elf, they were living with a feeling of inferiority because of their need of human as food. The evil race could only accepted them just barely because they attacked the people of human nations as their food. Without that there was no way that a small clan like them would be given a dangerous mission like infiltrating other country where there was a high possibility that they might get annihilated.
Even so it was decided that they would do this mission because of their high status and immortality due to being vampire.
Their body would regenerate as long as they had mana. The only way to kill them was to behead them, crush the magic stone in their heart, or burn them to ash. Vampire had no need to care about their physical limit thanks to their high regenerative ability and could obtain high combat strength.
But, any creature would die when they were killed as long as they had flesh body.
You bastard, is this your plan from the start!?
Carla responded to Suraimans words with a thin smile. Their worry was correct. From the start Carlas wish was only one
Please become the nourishment to make me stronger.
Weak opponent couldnt serve as nourishment. Human could finally become stronger only in the middle of battle where even just a single moment of carelessness could kill them instantly.
Carla casually pulled out the long needle that pierced her stomach. Then she laughed joyfully with her face that had gotten even paler.
KILL HERRRRRRRR!
Suraiman furiously yelled.
The vampires were persecuted even within the evil race and they volunteered to undertake this dangerous mission for the sake of their comrades. Because of that their bond with each other was strong. Seeing their comrade getting killed made the anger and hatred inside them exploded.
Thats right, come at me seriously.
Enough talk!
Washim recovered from the electricitys damage due to his regeneration. He grew his claws longer and rushed toward Carla once more in respond to her words.
Stone Shot
Carlas stone bullet intercepted him. Washims arm was broken, but he paid it no mind swept the stone aside, but the strength of the shot pushed him back. But
Its over!
At the same time with that, Suraiman vanished and leaped out from Carlas shadow. His needle that was made from magic iron pierced Carlas chest.
!?
There Suraiman saw Carlas white hand reaching toward him. He reflexively took some distance from her.
How was she moving with her chest pierced like that? Why was an immortal like him jumping away from her? That was because of the premonition of death that he felt for the first time since becoming an undead. He couldnt describe it with words.
Still no good.
Carla murmured with the needle still sticking in her chest. The three including Musa who had recovered from the paralysis surrounded her.
You, are you immortal!?
Theres no way thats the case.
Carla slowly pulled out the needle from her chest. But, the blood that should spurt out from there immediately stopped. Suraiman noticed how her whole body was enveloped in faint light and realized that Carla was using healing sorcery.
However, no matter how talented she was in healing sorcery, human should die when her chest was stabbed. And yet Carla was still alive. How?
oAAAAAAAH!
Washim couldnt endure it and screamed.
The opponent was just a single rank 3. Furthermore she was a child and a sorcerer who couldnt even fight in close quarter. Even so Carlas mysteriousness and her abnormal way of fightingand seeing a fellow vampire Seda getting killed so easily made his mind reached the limit. He grew his claws once more and leaped at Carla.
His broken arm was already regenerating. Both Washim and Musa would have been already out of the fight from their wounds if they werent undead.
Washim survived thanks to his immortality and attacked Carla recklessly also because of that. He couldnt endure the incomprehensible fear even though he had immortality.
Wha-!?
The claws that were swung with superhuman strength were dodged in a hairs breadth. Even so Carla failed to dodge completely and blood spurted from her shoulder. She frowned seeing that.
UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Seeing that Nusa also attacked Carla with a short sword. Washim also swung his claws at Carla as though he received a push from something. Carla dodged the twos fierce attacks in a hairs breadth.
Although she managed to dodge in a hairs breadth, she didnt get away unscathed. She only avoided getting lethal wound while her body and dress were getting torn up and dyed with blood.
From the start Carla only had the stamina of a toddler. Even just a little bleeding might become lethal for her, even so Carla didnt fall.
Suraima was staring at that scene with a glare. He wasnt a pure swordsman but a sorcerer. But his mana capacity wasnt that big and normally he used darkness magic to fight like an assassin, but it was because he had gotten serious that he was looking for a chance to use sorcery.
But, there was small confusion and impatience inside Suraimans eyes as he observed Carla.
Vampire couldnt grow. In exchange of their regeneration and immortality, their physical body wouldnt grow and they couldnt learn new Skill.
Suraiman feared Carla. Unlike them who could only fight without concerning themselves of life and death, Carla who was changing in the middle of fighting was scary.
UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Musa swung his short sword. The moment Carla whose speed was several level below him dodgedSuraimans body trembled and his eyes widened in shock.
MOVEEEEEEEE!!
Suraiman screamed. He used that as replacement for activation word and fired level 4 fire sorcery Fire Breath.
Musa and Washim who were absorbed in attacking returned to their senses from that scream. They swiftly jumped away and at the same time a wave of flame assaulted Carla who was standing still. Then
I understand.
A blade of Ice Lance grew from Carlas hand. With her powerful magic control, she swung the produced ice like a sword and cut apart the Fire Breaths flame.
tsu!?
Musa and Washim held their breath from witnessing that unbelievable scene. Suraiman who was the only one understanding what Carla just did made an astonished expression.
What was the true identity of the anxiety and fear that Suraimanthat the vampires were feeling?
Vampire wouldnt grow. But humanchild could grow with shocking speed. The reason why Carla threw herself into this reckless battle was truly to use them as nourishment for her growth. They finally realized that.

.
AaI finally understand.
Carlas bloodstained skin was regenerating as though she was an immortal creature. Washim felt something indescribable from seeing that. It made him attacked Carla without any thought of how it made him looked.
uGAaAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
There was a large difference between human and vampires physical ability. But Carla dodged the attack with a movement that couldnt be compared from before. She then used Water Ball to push away Washim along with the other two.
Carla had obtained Martial Art skill that had reached level 3 instantly. Originally it was a skill that needed to grow step by step by accumulating practice, but she was able to skip that process because she took part in a hopeless battle that pushed her to do that.
Her opponents were three people who were around her level or stronger than that. As a sorcerer she would have no chance of winning if they closed the distance with her.
That was exactly why Carla thought it was worth it to take on such challenge.
There was something that she could see only because she was standing in the interval between life and death. Within the deathly battle where the average person would have died for more than ten times, she intentionally let herself hit by the attack that she wouldnt be able to dodge fully anyway. She only took care to avoid getting her heart hit.
The banned books that Carla read also included the description of human dissection. Carla had also practiced the dissection using the body of her attackers. Like that she dodged attack where the line between life and death was just a step away, she healed her body with healing magic, and obtained Martial Art in that extreme situation.
Then the Martial Art skill she learned influenced her to become able to use body strengthening. The influence from that increased her Magic Power Control to level 4, which granted Carla the competency to cut apart even Suraimans sorcery.
Carlas rapid growth in Magic Power Control enabled her to accelerate her thinking speed by forty percent. She used that while taking the sight of Musa, Washim, and the still dumbfounded Suraiman in her eyes.
The world really looked different. It was as though the world that she had been seeing until now had changed completely.
She became able to see the enemys movement thanks to the thought acceleration she obtained. She also became able to use sorcery with even more precision thanks to the extra leeway in her mentality.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Carla laughed loudly from her feeling of exaltation. If it was now she got the feeling that she would be able to understand something even more.
Washim, get back!
Musa yelled at Washim who was lying on the ground. It seemed getting soaked in water made him remembered of Sedas last moment.
Even electricity that could kill human instantly was survivable for Vampire if it was just a single hit. But Washim wouldnt be able to dodge the second hit while lying on the ground like that. Musa instantly concluded that and he rushed forward while spreading both his hands in order to use himself as shield for his comrade.
But, Musa saw Carlas hand was emitting cold air and made a triumphant smile on his face.
Something like that wont work on us!
Unlike flame or lightning that they were weak against, vampire was strong against cold. They had resistance against ice sorcery.
Musa smiled thinking that he would be able to kill Carla as long as he managed to endure that attack. But then Suraimans scream reached him from behind.
Musa! Dont let yourself get hit with that!
Suraiman wanted to provide back up, but because Musa spread his arms to act as shield, it also prevented the vampire side from attacking.
Musa might be able to win against Carla if he abandoned Washim to his death.
Suraiman might be able to kill Carla if he abandoned Musa and fired his sorcery.
But they couldnt do that. The anxious tone in Suraimans voice and the darkness in Carlas eyes made Musa realized his blunder.
Ice Lance
Ice type sorcery destroyed the target more with its hardness and speed rather than its coldness. But Carla used her Magic Power Control so that the Ice Lance she fired prioritized coldness rather than destructiveness.
The water clinging on Musas body got frozen. Using that as medium, even the inside of his body got frozen. Then a stone bullet that Carla fired smashed him into pieces.
Musa!
Carla laughed under the sparkling pieces of ice that were raining down while the other vampires screamed the name of their dead comrade
Even vampire will die if theyre smashed to pieces right?
Carlas voice sounded delighted. In respond Suraiman narrowed his gaze in resolve.
Washimdie.
Got it.
Washim agreed without any hesitation to Suraimans sudden demand.
They were facing a terrifying opponent. The two vampires of the evil race had stopped thinking of Carla as a mere rank 3.
Although Carla was a terrifying opponent, she wasnt a warrior that they could respect.
Even though she was still a little girl, she showed abnormal mentality and growing speed and killed two vampires with those. If they left Carla alone like this, she would surely become an enemy that brought about disaster for the evil race.
They had to kill her here and nowthis would be their last chance to kill her with certainty, now that she was she still just rank 3. Both Suraiman and Washim understood that.
NUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Washim roared and rushed forward just like Musa in order to seal Carlas movement.
But doing that would only lead to the same conclusion like with Musa against the current Carla who had obtained body strengthening and thought acceleration.
Perish here, Carla!!
Suraiman yelled and unleashed his mana. He wouldnt let Musa and Sedas death to be in vain. Suraiman and Washim had resolved themselves to kill Carla even if it cost them their life.
Fire Breath
Suraiman was a sorcerer of darkness and flame. His skills stopped growing because of his transformation into vampire, but he had raised his skills precision after so many years.
No matter how strong she was, a rank 3 like Carla wouldnt have any way to resistthat should be the case.
Aaso you use that.
To Carla whose Magic Power Control had grown and felt like she was just a moment away from grasping something, seeing Suraimans sorcery that had been polished for many years multiple times became the last impetus that gave her inspiration.
Fire Breath
Immense mana also surged from Carlas hand and a wave of flame burst out. The two Fire Breath hit Washim from front and back and evaporated him instantly.
DAMN YOUUUUUUUU!
AHAHAH!
Suraimans yell and Carlas laugh filled the air. The two flames clashed amidst that and scattered sparks of mana to the surrounding.

.
ImpossibleSuraimans eyes expressed that after seeing Carlas combat strength.
Suraiman and his subordinates didnt become vampire because they wanted it. Even so they possessed exceptional strength among the evil race clan. It was because of that strength that they were shunned even among the evil race, but if they successfully land a serious blow to human nation through this mission, than their clans evaluation among the evil race should change.
But, that hope that should be within their reach thanks to their existence as powerful immortal creature was thwarted by just a single persona growing human girl.
The difference between vampire who stopped growing and power that surged from achieving even more growth broke the equilibrium between the clashing flames. At the end Suraiman looked up to the night sky with a sorrowful look.

With this finallyI can have a fight to the death(go to meet) with you. Aria
