"The erosion is complete!"
Nightsong retracted her fangs, looked at Flandre in her arms who was now unable to move, and nodded with satisfaction: "This is the first Smash I've created, right?"
"Magic Box, absorb Fran's blood and purify the BAT energy bottle!"
"Absorption begins."
……
Five minutes later, Fran opened her big eyes, rubbed her head, and sat up. She looked up curiously and found herself sitting on Ye Ge's lap. Ye Ge's tone was unusually concerned: "How are you? Do you feel any more comfortable?"
"What...what did you do to me?"
Fran was somewhat panicked. She was about to act, but suddenly stopped. She stared at her hands in astonishment, then touched her eyes in disbelief: "Huh? The thread is gone?"
Seeing this, Ye Ge breathed a sigh of relief, gently picked up Fran, and showed a rare smile of relief: "I told you, I can help you control your power."
"Big brother, are you telling the truth?"
Fran blinked her big eyes, looking excitedly at her hands. Suddenly, she hugged Yege's neck with delight and refused to let go, straddling him. Fortunately, Fran was relatively light, so Yege didn't mind and simply stood up and lifted Fran up.
"My name is Ye Ge, just call me by my name."
Night Song removed his mask, revealing his face. Fran studied him for a while before hopping down excitedly, eager to go outside: "I'm going to find my sister! Fran can control herself now and will never destroy anything again! My sister will never hate me again!"
Night Song quickly stopped her. If this little girl were to enter the battlefield now, her plans would be ruined. Remilia was already troublesome enough, but if Fran, who could completely control her power, were to join in, the outcome of the battle would be uncertain.
However, Night Song is not worried about Fran's attitude towards him. Fran has been transformed into a smash and has a natural affinity for him. Even if she really doesn't want to obey, he can make demands to a certain extent. The instinct given by the nebula gas will make her stand on the same side as Night Song.
"Um, Second Miss."
Just as Yoru was about to take Flandre somewhere to lay low, Sakuya groaned from behind the wall and slowly woke up. She shook her groggy head, stood up and tried to find Flandre, only to find that the second young lady she had been longing for was leaning affectionately against Yoru.
"Sakuya-san, are you awake yet?"
Night Song greeted her with a smile. Since all the vampires who knew him had been eliminated, he no longer needed to hide his identity. Let the past be buried in the ashes of vampires.
"Sir, the second young lady..."
Sakuya bit her lip, still feeling uneasy. After so many years in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, she had a very clear understanding of Flandre's destructive power, and now this walking disaster was obediently clinging to the man's arm and refusing to let go, making her wonder if she was still asleep.
"Sakuya! Thanks to Yoru-nii! I can control myself now! I won't hurt you anymore!"
Fran raised her hands high, a sweet and bright smile on her face. Her heartfelt joy infected Sakuya, whose icy expression softened with a faint smile. She walked to Fran's side, took her hand, and slowly squatted down: "Second Miss, congratulations."
“Mr. Yoru, right? Sakuya will always remember your kindness to the Scarlet Devil Mansion.”
Sakuya stood up, straightened her slightly soiled maid outfit, and showed a grateful expression. However, Yoruka didn't care about such empty promises at all. His attention was now entirely focused on the bat energy bottle in his hand, which was emitting a faint light and seemed to be about to transform.
"One more! Just one more and it'll be complete! My full bottle!"
……
"Vampire, you've already lost. Retreat now."
In front of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Remilia hovered in place, her face grim, staring in disbelief at the chaotic battlefield beneath her feet and Reimu Hakurei's impatient expression. She forced out a sentence through gritted teeth:
"I...I actually lost to a human?"
Have you seen my Fran-chan? She's so cute, like my angel. She's not lost or anything, and I just think you all should see her!
Section 36. Mr. Ye, a model youth!
Behind her, Patchouli was coughing as she was helped down by the little devil. In the violent duel with Marisa, due to carelessness and physical reasons, her asthma interrupted her magic chanting, and Marisa seized the opportunity to win in one blow. Hong Meiling was in a sorry state. Although she was not injured, she had no chance of winning against Hijiri Byakuren and Ibuki Suika.
The vampires have suffered heavy casualties, with 40% already dead and swallowed up by the monsters' attacks. The remaining 60% have almost lost their fighting ability, with only a few slightly stronger ones still struggling to hold on. However, in the face of the invincible army, defeat is only a matter of time.
But most importantly! It was herself! Faced with Reimu Hakurei, who had borrowed the power of the Hakurei Great Barrier and was directly afraid of the Iron Chicken, Remilia racked her brains to come up with a countermeasure, but in the face of absolute power crushing, she was defeated without any suspense.
"No! We still have troops. Quickly notify the garrison at the Scarlet Devil Mansion and tell them..."
Remilia seemed to have a renewed sense of hope. She turned around eagerly, wanting to use her numerical advantage to turn the tide of the battle. But when she saw the Scarlet Devil Mansion behind her, the excitement on her face froze. Her castle, the mysterious Scarlet Devil Mansion, had already collapsed halfway. As for those vampires, they had turned into undead spirits in the ruins.
"Who did this! Who did this?!"
Remilia was acting like a madwoman. The Scarlet Devil Mansion incident had destroyed her last hope, and she wanted nothing more than to grab the culprit and drain his blood. But this was just impotent rage. Reimu Hakurei raised an eyebrow, pointed at her with her gohei, and questioned her impatiently:
"Stop talking nonsense, are you going to admit defeat or not!"
"We... lost."
Remilia lowered her head as if in resignation, the hatred in her eyes almost tangible, but she understood the principle of the loser being the villain: "What do you want? Tell me!"
"Alright, since the Scarlet Devil Mansion failed, then you might as well accept the punishment."
Yukari Yakumo emerged from the gap, smiling as she looked at Remilia, who wished she could tear her to pieces. She snapped her folding fan shut and pointed at the vampires below. Her smile vanished instantly, replaced by coldness and ruthlessness: "From this day forward, no other vampires will be allowed in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Except for the direct descendants of the Mansion Master, all others will be exterminated!"
"you!"
"Annihilation begins!"
After hours of brutal and inhumane siege, Remilia, pale-faced, returned to the Scarlet Devil Mansion with her remaining troops. All her vampire subordinates had been annihilated. Although some vampires cried out and even begged for her mercy, she could not do it. As the loser, she could only watch helplessly as the once-prosperous Scarlet Devil Mansion was reduced to a second-rate entity.
"Patch, go back. From now on, the Scarlet Devil Mansion should stop dreaming."
With a heavy heart, Remilia opened the doors of the Scarlet Devil Mansion once more. Last time she brought a vast army with her, but now she was left with only herself and a pitiful few friends.
"Young Miss, welcome back."
Sakuya's expression was complicated. She understood Remilia's bitterness, but there was nothing she could do. She was human and could not participate in such a large-scale battlefield, and she had not done a good job of protecting the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
"Sakuya, can you tell me what happened?"
Remilia's tone was weary. This crushing defeat had destroyed her ambition and made her somewhat depressed. Sakuya hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "An attack from who knows where released the Second Miss, and then she ended up like this."
"What! Fran has been released! Where is she now?"
Mentioning Fran, Remilia's eyes lit up again, and she eagerly leaned closer, her voice excited. Sakuya quickly calmed her down, "The second young lady is alright, and she has already returned to normal. She can now control her powers."
"what!"
Everyone was shocked. They had all witnessed Fran's madness. Remilia jumped up anxiously, bypassed Sakuya, and rushed straight into the Scarlet Devil Mansion, wanting to see her sister.
"Sister! Fran is all better! Fran will never break anything again!"
As soon as she entered, Flandre's delighted voice rang out. Remilia looked up and saw Flandre sitting obediently on the chair opposite her, swinging her short legs. She even greeted her with a smile. Was this still the same Flandre who would destroy things at the drop of a hat?
"Francine...you..."
Remilia was overwhelmed with mixed feelings. She suddenly rushed forward and hugged Fran, and the gloom in her heart dissipated a lot. Fran also hugged Remilia with a touching expression. This gave Night Song a free show of a large-scale romance drama about sisterly love.
"he is?"
Patchouli walked over and saw Yoru sitting next to her. She asked with some confusion, "Why are there humans in the Scarlet Devil Mansion at this time?"
Sakuya quickly explained, "This is Mr. Yoru. He's the one who helped me suppress the Second Miss and also helped her return to normal."
Sakuya's words made Patchouli's eyes widen. Pointing at Yoru, she said incredulously, "He's just a human, how could he have such medical skills? Even the one from Eientei might not be able to cure Flandre, right?"
However, the undeniable truth was clear to Patchouli: Flandre was holding a tearful Remilia, her smile genuine and her eyes devoid of their former madness. She looked more like a well-behaved and adorable girl next door. If it weren't for her tattered wings and beautiful eyes, she would probably stand out among humans.
"Remi, move aside, let me check if Fran is alright."
Patchouli tensed up immediately. Ignoring her weakness, she stepped forward and pulled Remilia away. Remilia reluctantly let go of Flandre and asked with dissatisfaction, "Patchouli, what are you doing? Flandre has just recovered. Let me hug her one more time!"
"It's not too late to hug him later."
Patchouli frowned and set up a magic circle around Flandre. Waves of testing magic swept over Flandre, but after repeated testing, Patchouli's brows did not relax; in fact, they furrowed even more. Remilia, standing to the side, couldn't help but tense up and stared at Night Song with a dangerous look.
"Patch, how are you? Is Fran in danger?!"
Patchouli remained silent, which made Remilia anxious. She asked urgently, while Sakuya's gaze also turned somewhat unfriendly. He subtly moved behind Yoru, but he wasn't nervous because he knew that even if Patchouli came up with some elaborate scheme, she wouldn't be able to detect anything wrong.
Because he didn't inflict any negative effects on Fran, the nebula gas merely modified her body to help her control her power; Fran was still Fran!
"It's strange. There's nothing wrong with Fran; she hasn't changed at all! But why is she able to control her madness?"
In an instant, several gazes were fixed on Ye Ge. Facing the intense stares, Ye Ge simply smiled slightly, put his hand to his mouth, and made a shushing gesture: "You all don't need to worry about this. This is just a tiny, insignificant ability of mine. Don't worry, it won't harm Fran. As long as she continues to grow, she will inevitably become stronger."
Patchouli received no answer. Although somewhat dissatisfied, she was helpless. She nodded to Remilia, who smiled with relief, walked up to Night Song, and solemnly said, "Night Song, right? Thank you for helping Flandre. The Scarlet Devil Mansion owes you a favor. In the name of my Crimson Moon, Night Song, what do you want?"
Section 37. The Problematic Transformation
Night Song wore a shy smile, but he already had an idea in mind. He held out his hand to Remilia, a bottle in his palm, and said to her with slight excitement:
"Young lady, may I have your blood?"
Remilia raised an eyebrow, her gaze towards Nightsong suddenly changing. The emotion and joy in her eyes vanished, replaced by disdain. However, she didn't say anything, but instead offered a different suggestion:
"Do you want to become a vampire? How about I give you my first embrace? Although the Sage of the Demons forbids vampires from reproducing, my direct descendants can be kept. Would you like to be my first direct descendant?"
Even with a huge vampire population, Remilia still doesn't have any direct blood relatives. However, for the sake of Night Song, who healed Flandre, she felt that exchanging her Embrace for it wasn't too much of a loss. Besides, the Scarlet Devil Mansion has already been defeated, and now there are no other vampires besides her and Flandre.
Night Song paused for a moment, then suddenly shook his head. Remilia had clearly misunderstood him. He held up the bottle and shook it: "I'm sorry, Miss, I didn't mean to become a vampire. I just need the blood of a high-ranking vampire. Your blood can help me become stronger."
"Fine, since you insist on it."
Remilia hesitated for a moment, then agreed. She pricked her finger, and the bright red blood dripped into the bottle. Night Song carefully collected it and bowed slightly: "Thank you for your generosity, Miss."
"It's alright. The Scarlet Devil Mansion is clear about its grudges and will keep its doors open for you from now on."
Remilia was indifferent to Night Song's gratitude; her attention was now entirely focused on Flandre. Even the defeat at the Scarlet Devil Mansion was fading from her mind. The joy of regaining her sister eased her sorrow considerably. Although she had lost her ambition and power, her sister had finally returned.
"Then I'll take my leave now."
Ye Ge stood up, greeted everyone, and walked towards the door. Just as he was about to open the door, he suddenly turned back, smiled, and waved to the forlorn-looking Hong Meiling: "Master Meiling, we'll meet again someday. I still want you to continue teaching me kung fu."
"Oh? Oh! Okay, see you next time."
Watching Yoru's departing figure, Hong Meiling's expression was complicated. She seemed to know something, but for the sake of Yoru's future relationship with the Scarlet Devil Mansion, she decided to keep it to herself. Moreover, she really didn't want to lose Yoru as her apprentice.
"Meiling, do you know him?"
Seeing that Hong Meiling's expression was off, Sakuya couldn't help but ask.
"It's nothing, he's just... one of my apprentices."
Hong Meiling shook her head, forced a smile, and vaguely brushed off Sakuya.
"Then don't worry about it. Come on over, we still need people to do the hard work for the reconstruction of the Scarlet Devil Mansion."
