Chapter 407 How to Use Toys

Alezel jumped on the spot and landed right above the airship. The height of her gaze is about the same as Veronica and Eliza, who are staying in the sky. The vampire maids are in a terrible mood, and so is Alezel. The released bloodlust calls for another bloodlust, and the sky is dyed black.

「I will ask you just in case. .... Are you sane?」

「Uwaah, I can feel Veronica’s quiet anger. Well, I also feel the same way~. You might have a chance if you come at us with Zex, but are you seriously going to challenge us alone? Are you looking down on us?」

「Ah, that’s right, I have to explain it to make you understand since you are birdbrains. Come to think of it, you have wings, so you are similar to a bird. Listen, I’m looking down on you and picking a fight, y’know? Just take out your weapon already. I’m being merciful by waiting for you, why can’t you understand that? Idiots.」

「「....」」

Angry veins popped out on Veronica and Eliza’s foreheads, and their eyes opened wide. Now, the development can’t be stopped anymore. Zeta, who was watching the situation with Zex on the ground, immediately judged that it would be dangerous to stay here. She urged the Quitet employees to evacuate, and she decided to follow them as the rear guard.

「I see. Alezel-dono seems to be surprisingly calm. She decided to take all the hate by herself so that her subordinates won’t get involved... Then, let’s help her with that! Zeta, we’re going to assist them to evacuate!」

「Understood. We are already in action, as I am sure Zex-sama would say so.」

「Ooh, good job!」

When Zeta points her artificial left arm backward, its surface armor deforms so that it protrudes outward. Then, the protruding machine glowed violently, as if electricity was flowing through it.historical

「You maintained it well, huh. The movement was really smooth.」

「I-I’m good at maintenance. Then, I will do it. Magnism Sheet Plus..!」

Purple Lightning Magic level 60, 『Magnism Sheet』. It’s a barrier magic that creates a magnetic wall and repels enemy attacks. The artificial hand-shaped Zex body is equipped with the ability to significantly amplify the electrical power generated by Zeta’s magic. This Magnism Sheet is no exception, and by raising its output by several levels, it has expanded to a size that can cover all of the people who are evacuating. In terms of the scale, it probably reached the realm of 『Thunder Magic』, which is higher than 『Purple Lightning Magic』. The wall of Maria, which causes nothing but trouble, is a no, but this barrier is a very dependable existence that everyone can accept wholeheartedly.

「Zex-sama, Zeta-sama. Thank you for your consideration.」

Immediately after the barrier was created, a man who was also running at the rear of the group talked to the two. It was the eye-patched man who was introduced to them before the vampire maids appeared. However, Zeta was a bit at a loss as to how to reply since she had not been told the man’s name.

「You are, um...」

「I’m sorry for the late introduction. I’m the senior staff of the Quitet Trading Company. Pleased to make your acquaintance.」

「Ah, nice to meet you..」

He was polite, but he didn’t tell his name for some reason.

「We are going to evacuate to the city where the Quitet branch is located. The enemies won’t harm ordinary citizens, so if we go inside and remain unarmed, they won’t attack us. As for the airship, there should be no problem since the President is there. What about you two?」

「Hmm... Our facility is a bit far from here. If possible, I would like to join you.」

「I agree with Zex-sama. But is it okay to leave Alezel-san alone? Should I participate so that it will be at least two against two?」

「That won’t be necessary. The way Alezel-dono fight is unique, so there’s a high possibility that you will get in her way. Zeta, go with the employees and ensure their safety. I’m expecting a lot from you!」

「U-Understood! I will do my best to meet your expectations!」

The barrier roared, perhaps responding to Zeta’s emotions.

And while the evacuation was taking place in such a manner, Veronica and Eliza were taking out their weapons on the battlefield filled with bloodlust. A whip dyed in red blood and a large axe with blood dripping from its blade. They gave the impression as if they have just been used.

「Are you trying to show off that you’re a vampire? You don’t have to work hard that far, y’know? Ah, maybe I shouldn’t have said that? Sorry, but this mouth always says what I think.」

「.... I see, you can’t stop talking, huh. You should take out your weapon as well. This is not the time for you to waste your breath.」

「That’s right. You kept telling us, but you were just standing still. I was planning to leave you half-killed since killing you is a no... Kyahaha! On second thought, I will kill you! Come on, take out your weapon!

「Oh, you’re finally showing your true nature. Well, everyone has escaped, so it’s about time to start. I was planning to use my bare hands, but since you asked, I will take out my weapon. I’m powerless, so I can’t hold something big like you stupid brats. Well, this is the best I can do.」

What Alezel took out were two large guns. They are the same Gatling guns like the ones used Against Alezel in the underground arena of the corrupt merchant. With a gun barrel that’s as tall as a person, this weapon was originally meant to be fixed to the ground. This is not a weapon to be held in the hand when firing, much less to be fired with one in each hand like dual pistol.

「「....!」」

However, Alezel lifted the Gatling guns as if it was natural and started firing them simultaneously from the top of the airship. The storm of bullets fired from the Gatling guns was tremendous, and at the same time, the user, Alezel, was also hit by the tremendous recoil. However, the elf who called herself powerless was able to withstand it easily.

The two vampire maids were a little surprised by the appearance of the weapon they had never seen, but they succeeded in evading the bullets without even being grazed. They completely saw through the bullets before evading them.

「Hmph. I was surprised by the strange weapon, but it seems that they are nothing special. The attacks are too slow to hit us, you know?」

「Kyahahaha! No matter how much you shoot us with those toys, we can avoid them easily! Even if there are a lot of them, it’s useless~!」

「That’s right. Well, the attacks were slow, but they were enough to hide me.」

「「――!?」」

Alezel’s voice came from the shadow of the bullets that passed by them.

「What!?」

「Ah!?」

When the girls reflexively turned around, they saw the figure of Alezel. Actually, Alezel rushed to the sky and caught up with the countless bullets that she fired. Moreover, she hid behind the bullets and she even took a short break on the way. Such a ridiculous trick was no problem for her, who’s the second fastest after Maria among the Great Eight Demons. By the time the first group of bullets reached the vampire maids, Alezel was already behind them.

「Now, I have a question for you two. What did you lose when we passed each other?」
