To Be a Power in the Shadows! Chapter 190

Epsilon remembered a girl called Emilia .

It was a story from before master attended the academy, and the time when the Shadow Garden was still a small organization made up of only master and the seven shadows .

At that time, master’s sister Claire was kidnapped by the Order of Diabolos . The result of that situation was that Shadow Garden destroyed one of its branches .

The guy in charge of that branch was called Olba . His daughter’s Emilias name was carved into his sword’s handle .

After some investigation they found out that Olba’s daughter Emilia was taken as a hostage by the cult .

And then, Shadow Garden found her .

But at that time, Emilia has already turned into a monster after being experimented on by the Order of Diabolos, so Alpha killed her out of mercy .

But it seems that her body was recovered by the cult .

“You heartless bastards . ”

Epsilon glared furiously at Doem who was smirking .

“It must have been hard for you to come this far just to kill me, but in the end it seems you are not going to be able to do that . The situation has changed . Why don’t you leave your head here?”

From the broken coffin came out a beautiful girl .

Her innocent look and grey hair instantly reminded Epsilon about about Olba, even though she only saw him once .

Doem used Emilia as a shield as he slowly retreated .

“… tsu . ”

Epsilon also stepped back, while on guard against Emilia .

It was because she sensed in Emilia a magic power level equal to that of the hero Freya .

The noises coming from outside the tent grew louder, as they gradually approached .

Kai and Omega’s distraction seemed to have reached it’s limit . The tent would be surrounded in a short moment .

—— It was time to retreat .

Although they failed to kill Doem, they did weaken the Cult of Diabolos’ military power . Compared to killing Doem, learning about the plans of Cult of Diabolos was much more important .

It was stupid of her to make decisions because of emotional impulses .

Epsilon focused mana at her sword .

Emilia responded to the sudden movement .

But Epsilon’s target was not her .

It was the person behind her – Doem .

Epsilon held her sword horizontally .

The magic gathered on the sword formed a sharp blade and was going to slash at Doem .

“What!? Emilia, protect me!”

Emilia, who was going to attack Epsilon, changed her direction according to Doem’s order .

She rushed into the attack range of the blade, released a huge mana wave and cut Epsilon’s blade in two .

Epsilon widened her eyes behind the mask .

She had not  expected her blade to be cut in this way .

However, Epsilon still succeeded in her goal .

She jumped out of the tent and ran to the forest .

“Catch her, Emilia! Do not let her escape!!”

Epsilon felt huge mana waves from behind her .

I threw together a guerilla plan for the Shadow Garden’s elite group to attack the enemy camp . After separating from Epsilon and the others, I dashed into the forest . At the same time, Violet-san started to flail about .

She wriggled continuously in my pocket .

“Wait a minute, it’s itchy . ”

I had no choice but to stop and took Violet-san out of my pocket .

“What’s the matter, what do you want?”

“Pikupiku” – Violet-san shook on my palm .

“Are you hungry?”

“Petipeti” – she patted my palm .

“No? Ah, do you want to go to the bathroom?”

“Batibati” – she hit my hand harder .  

“Hmm, it’s really a headache . ”

I scouted around to see if there was anything unusual .

It was just an ordinary forest .

But the moon in the sky was very beautiful .

“The moonlight is beautiful, but I’m in a hurry today . Next time we can watch the moon together . ”

Violet-san was wriggling .

Her body language was really hard to understand .

She jumped from my hand and rolled on the ground .

“Do you want to go for a walk?”

I followed behind her .

We only walked for a while, mana was gathering in the forest showing faint light .

The light and mana became stronger little by little, forming a female figure .

“Yo, we meet again . ”

I greeted Freya .
