711 Leaving a mark on the world

*B-B-B-B-B-BOOM!*

Loud explosion after the other blasted throughout the entire forest. The sound was deafening to those nearby, and mighty gusts of warm currents changed the temperature.

The Dullahans, the Cefeyes, Awa, Plow, and Zero became disoriented and fell to the ground. Many of the Dullahans and many of the Cefeyes fainted from the force the Dullahans referred to as Ragnarok.

Awa opened her eyes less than a minute later. She punched the ground to stand up and noticed her hand wasn’t a shadow silhouette anymore. Eclipse form had ended.

Her eyes widened from the shock the view before her caused.

The explosions blew many of the trees away, while others were burning with a green flame.

The village she previously lived in was covered by one huge green wildfire. Above the smoke was green light slowly dimming as time passed.

Awa knew for certain it was none other than Vincent. She tapped on her chest and murmured, “Night. Can you please help me catch Vincent before he falls to his death?”

Awa nodded after hearing a response.

.....

“Thank you for sharing your strength.” She said before forming a shadowed cape and later throwing it for Night to form.

Night formed her mare’s body, but unlike before, the body was covered in cuts. Faint smoke escaped from her body. Night couldn’t maintain her current materialized form for a long time because of her leaking power.

*Pho! Pho! Pho!* “Take Plow with you!” Plow requested after she ran to Awa as promptly as she could.

Awa nodded. She placed Plow on Night’s neck.

After Awa climbed on Night’s back, she said, “I will save Vincent.” before Night headed to save Vincent.

The Dullahans, who didn’t faint, looked at Awa leaving on horseback to save her clan leader.

The Dullahans became astonished by the dedication Awa displayed, even if she looked like an ordinary Dullahan now. They also became amazed at how much their clan leader and their clan chieftain loved each other.

The closer Awa approached the dying sea of green flames, the more she could see the fire extinguishing and the temperature feel as if it was summer.

Night quickly arrived at the line where the earth spike wall was. Night jumped over the rubble and ran across a warm field colored black from being burnt while being illuminated by the green flames.

Awa and Plow almost forgot to breathe after their eyes witnessed such destruction, the smoky air snapped them back to reality, and they resumed breathing normally.

Regardless of a momentary problem from getting shocked, they could not stop looking at the destruction Vincent caused while not finding a hint of the colossal undead bear.

A hole with quickly extinguishing green flames was in the same place the undead bear previously was. The dozens upon dozens of Ice Lance explosions changed the topology of the area.

It wasn’t a ruined village anymore nor an empty field with burnt earth. It was like a gate of hell had opened and swallowed the colossal undead bear whole while leaving a mark on the world of its appearance.

‘It really was Ragnarok.’ Awa thought. She was the first Dullahan to witness a level of destruction she had never imagined before.

“Awa Awa. Look up.” *Pho* “Plow thinks Vincent Vincent is about to fall.” *Pho*

Awa stopped looking at the destruction Vincent caused and raised her gaze after hearing Plow’s warning.

The green steam stopped appearing, and the body of Vincent could be seen again. The light under his feet disappeared, and he began to fall a moment later.

Awa grabbed Plow. “Night!” She said before leaning to the side and falling off Night’s back. Awa wanted Night to run faster without their extra weight.

Awa rolled on the ground. The moment she stopped rolling, she leaned her body upward with Plow safely staying on her lap.

The two of them looked at Night jump and turning into a dark cloud. The green flames were mostly extinguished, allowing the dark cloud to move without burning.

Night had managed to make it in time and position herself under Vincent.

Night was going to catch Vincent’s fall at this rate. However, a mysterious thing happened, and the possibility of catching Vincent successfully disappeared in an instant.

*Whoosh* A strange wind-piercing sound was briefly heard. A mysterious object moving at great speed passed through Night and dispersed her. Whatever did such a thing landed in the deep burning hole.

As the dark cloud was no more, Vincent’s chances of safely landing on the ground disappeared. He was going to die at this rate because Night needed more time to recover than usual, as she was in bad condition.

Awa and Plow froze from shock as they saw Vincent keep falling without no one to catch him. Not only could he die from the fall, but the mystery that forced Night to disperse was also concerning.

*Whoosh* A second small speeding object darted toward Vincent. The object grew bigger the closer it approached. Soon, it took the form of a humanoid form with hip wings.

“Did that bat thing, Vincent?” Awa questioned while her heart was still anxiously racing.

Awa placed Plow on the ground. She slowly lifted her exhausted body and felt pain rushing from her legs. She clenched her teeth and limped.

“I will save Vincent.” She murmured courageously in the face of an unknown new potential enemy.

The being with hip wings landed on the ground. She carefully laid Vincent’s body on the ground and placed his head on her lap.

“Give Vincent back to me!” Awa shouted while limping to rescue Vincent.

“Huh?” Awa suddenly saw Plow skipping over to Vincent and the new person. Plow wagged her tails and acted delighted. Awa could not understand what was happening.

Awa lost her balance and fell to her knees. She saw Plow acting very comfortable with the woman in front of her.

*Pho* “Plow is happy to see Mimi Mimi.”

At this moment, Awa realized the woman who saved Vincent from the fall was a person Vincent had a connection with.

Awa became happy yet worried at the same time.

Mimi caressed Vincent’s face. She frowned and said, “I arrived too late to tell you the news. I traveled but got caught up in certain things. Regardless of the past, I have decided on my future.”

Mimi leaned her head and kissed Vincent’s forehead. “Vincent, my dear delectable blook bank, I will become your wife and fight alongside you.”

Mimi raised her head and moved her gaze onto the woman on her knees. “That black neck! Are you a Dullahan?”

“Plow found Awa Awa. Plow want cuddles for doing a good job.” *Pho* Plow requested.

“Hehe.” Mimi giggled while giving Plow a head pat. “Sure, little one. You did a good deed.”

*Pho ?*

“Are you Vincent’s woman?” Awa asked.

“Yes. I will marry him, and because he needs my help urgently, we will marry in the next few days.”

Mimi noticed Awa express a gaze of jealousy. Mimi slyly smirked and asked, “Are you also interested in marrying Vincent?”

“Awa Awa likes Vincent Vincent.” *Pho* Plow revealed to receive another head pat.

“Ho ho. Is that so?” Mimi slyly smiled while moving her gaze onto Vincent.

“Vincent lied to us then. Instead of clearing his head because my father tried to kill him, he went to find another woman.” *Tsk, tsk, tsk* “What a sinful man the man I love is.”

Awa was at a loss for words. ‘Her father was going to kill Vincent? Is she dangerous to Vincent?’ She deeply pondered.

“But this is a quite interesting development. I didn’t expect, out of all the races, a Dullahan woman likes Vincent.”

“If I recall correctly, the Dullahans of this content see the humans as slave traders. For a proud and hard-headed Dullahan to fall in love with a human is a little hard to believe.”

“I love Vincent!” Awa exclaimed.

Mimi slyly smirked because Awa took the bait. Mimi could now start a conversation while learning about the woman in front of her.

“But...” Awa pointed at Mimi. “Why do I sense the desire to eat Vincent from you? Are you going to eat him, vampire woman?”

“My my. You sure are as brave as the books say about the Dullahan race.” Mimi gently shook her head and continued, “Even though I want to, I will not for now. Vincent needs to recover.”

Mimi took out a large fabric and covered Vincent from the neck down. She looked at Awa and asked bluntly, “How close are you with Vincent?”

Awa blushed.

“Hehe. Does that mean what I think it means you, naughty girl?” Mimi slyly teased.

*Pho* “Vincent Vincent washed Awa Awa many, many times. Plow also helped Vincent Vincent give massages too. *Pho* Plow revealed for more head pats.

Awa covered her blushing face. She moved her fingers and peeked at Plow, receiving a head pat while Mimi looked at her with a sly smile.

“Sorry for teasing you, but to be on the same page, do you know about Vincent’s secret?”

Awa nodded. “As the man who can cause Ragnarok, he will be hunted by those who seek to remove such a powerful being from the world.”

“Ragnarok?” Mimi looked around her. “Well, I can not say he didn’t use a world-ending attack after looking at our surroundings.”

“Before I ask other questions, can I know if you are strong? Vincent needs strong wives at the moment.” Mimi asked, hoping to have a better grasp of the Dullahan named Awa in front of her.

“Awa Awa is very very strong. Awa Awa can wear dark armor with smoke because of Vincent Vincent.” *Pho* Plow said, telling Mimi more information than she expected.historical
