A Tale After Four Lives 43 Chapter 43: Lambert's Car

After Aura finished of all the devils via slap, Lambert had her turn all the bodies to ash as not to frighten Tosca as he still covered her eyes with his hand.

When everybody was nothing more than ash Lambert removed his hand from in front of her eyes.

She looked up at him and pouted, "Why didn't you let me look?"

"All things will happen in due time, having you see something like that too early will not be good for your mental development. That being said Aura, next time kill them less gruesomely, I don't care if Tosca sees them die, I'm sure she has seen her fair share of death but dismemberment is still a bit severe"

"Yes, Master", Aura nodded in understanding, somewhat regretting she didn't think of it before but as it already happened she didn't think too much and just went with what Lambert said.

Cleria and Masaomi silently followed Lambert, not making a sound. They were overwhelmed by the strangeness of the group in front of them. Cleria could clearly felt the horrifying amount of light energy that was within each of Aura's slaps and knew she had zero percent chance of surviving or even dodging such a slap, this also made her think, her eyes landed on Lambert that was smiling like a benevolent old man while conversing with Tosca, he would sometimes even help her love a few hard to travel places in the forest. Cleria couldn't help but wonder if this old man was really that strong, which made her shiver again as she remembered when he stared at her with those blue eyes upon there first meeting.

Luckily he had since then started wearing some strange contacts which made his stare appear like any ordinary mortal humans or else she would have died of fright with ho many times he had glanced back at her and Masaomi to make sure they were still well.

"It looks like we will be leaving the forest shortly, Master"

Aura spoke as she stared at where the trees started clearing up, and one could see the sky more clearly than before.

"Yes, I suspect there might be another ambush so be prepared to dispose of them as soon as they appear, I have already grown weary of these weak fools if they are to send devils they could at least send ones that could at least resist a single strike from you."

Lambert replied, he had hoped that he could stretch his legs a bit and use his sword skills again after many so many years but not to mention his sword just his gaze would kill all the devils that came after them which left him a bit depressed and resentful towards his enemy for only sending weaklings.

Masaomi almost tripped when he heard Lambert complained about there pursuers being too weak, luckily Cleria was there to catch him. She looked at him worriedly.

"Are you alright dear, are you hurt somewhere"

"Ah...No, just lost my footing, thanks"

Masaomi replied a bit embarrassed to her as he avoided her suspicious gaze.

The group eventually exited the forest and appeared in front of a gravel road at the side of the country some miles away from Kuoh town.

"Well it seems they didn't wait in ambush for us here"

Lambert spoke with a bit of disappointment lacing his voice.

"Don't worry Master, I'm sure we will find some on the road"

Aura said trying to cheer Lambert up a bit, which caused him to smile at her.

"Well let's just get going then"

Lambert said as he pulled something from his dimensional pocket, It was a scroll with a magic circle engraved into it.

"What's that?", Cleria asked with some interest on her face as she eyed the scroll in Lamberts hand

"Well we can't really travel via foot so I got us some transportation, I hope you like my car", Lambert said as he unfolded the Scroll.

"Wouldn't teleportation be the fastest and best way of doing it?" Cleria could help but doubt, but before Lambert could explain Aura beat him to the punch.

"That is what the devils and church will also be thinking and they will never expect us to move via Mortal transportation means"

Understanding dawned on Cleria as she nodded in agreement while Masaomi also spoke in agreement.

"A brilliant idea, who would think a devil and exorcist will be driving away with a vehicle when we could so easily just teleport".

"Where are we going?" Asked Toska as she stared up at Lambert with her high curious eyes.

"We will be stopping at Kyoto for some time, it is outside of the jurisdiction of the devils while Cleria will be able to hide there as long as she doesn't draw too much attention to herself, Ah....that reminds me"

Lambert pulled a simple bones necklace out of his dimensional pocket and handed it to Cleria.

"This will help cover your aura making it so that you will appear mortal in the eyes of others, though be careful because it will only work if you do not actively use your magic.

"Thank you", Masaomi said for Claire as he took the necklace of her and helped her wear it.

Lambert turned his attention to the scroll in his hands and channeled some manna into it, with a flash a car appeared in front of everyone, its appearance caused everyone except Lambert to gawk, it wasn't because the car appearing but what it was.

Lambert walked forward and got into the driver's seat of his beautiful shocking pink Beatle.

"Well come on, we still have a long way to go"

Lambert started the engine and out of everyone's expectations the engine roar alive like a monstrous beast awakening from its slumber, staring threw the back window you could see a massive six-cylinder engine compactly inserted at the back, rumbling as if just waiting to show its might.

Masaomi and Cleria could only stare at the pink monstrosity, deprived of all words
