From now on, the vampire girl escapes from the world

Turning his head, he looked at the innocent face of the black-haired girl who was also falling on the other side.

Even while falling, he still squinted his eyes sleepily.

Normally I would just find them cute. But now I have an inexplicable urge to... pinch those cute little cheeks... and squeeze them hard in my hands for revenge...

"... Ai'er, I can definitely do it."

However, a childish voice abruptly interrupted Ai'er's thoughts.

Lily opened her lavender eyes, still looking at Ai'er with such innocence.

as usual.

Ai'er suddenly realized that Lily trusted her—and was looking forward to her.

There was no reason for me to be angry at Lily.

"……Um."

The abyss was so vast that even after falling for such a long time and distance, the people still seemed to be floating on the surface. The huge cliff in the distance also seemed to be still in comparison.

Ai'er tried some simple magic, but it seemed that the magical rules here would shatter it the moment it was constructed.

Not to mention trying to teleport or fly away with the help of magic.

Unless you are strong enough - to the extent that Lily was in the past.

There is no result in escaping.

Even if it is to meet the girl's expectations, it must be solved perfectly.

The light in his eyes flowed, faster and faster as he calmed down and thought.

Ai'er thought of the series of strange characters in the clues left by the beast spirit. Ai'er had guessed that it was part of a certain spell, and now this guess seemed to be confirmed -

That is the puzzle and the key.

The characters that made up the puzzle kept gathering and replaying in my mind, like pieces of a puzzle being pieced together one by one on the frame of the light pattern at the bottom. If there was a mistake, it would be replayed, and all the clues found their place in the final pattern.

This is the only modification that can be solved, and the only possibility to lead to the final door!

Ai'er controlled her falling body, and touched the pattern within her sight with her little hand. Although the two were at different heights, from Ai'er's perspective, the pattern she had drawn actually established some connection with the light pattern at the bottom, ignoring the distance in space and connecting them together.

This technique did not collapse under the pressure of the strange rules, but was built steadily stroke by stroke. Even with the shaking vision caused by the strong wind, the lines on the bottom and the pattern in front of it did not misalign at all, but they were firmly combined as if they were stuck!

The answer is only valid when it is in mid-air!

Finally, the last line was drawn——

"Click——"

The flow of magic power was recognized here. Feeling something in her mind, Ai'er quickly spread out her five fingers——

"Give me—!"

The illusory door lock was turned - the gears of the world turned, the hidden passage opened, and the world began to change.

The vast abyss around was blurred by the world!

……

“Hehe~ The first one!——”

Veblen raised his head from the grass and rubbed his hair which was messed up by the fall.

The bone wings that were spread out behind him retracted, and he quickly jumped up as if nothing had happened. His face was filled with a bright smile of success.

"I originally wanted to come here to take a look, but who knew that I could come in here early - hehe ~ I got the clues but found out there are still restrictions. But it's easy to trick them with some modifications -"

With two rows of serrated fangs slightly exposed, Veblen grinned and walked towards the horizon.

"That deep pit...what is it..."

The girl who fell from the sky clearly realized that this was probably how the world was portrayed.

The grass is a donut, and the hole in the middle is the essence.

"Let's go and take a look~ Hehe, maybe the artifact is inside."

Veblen's steps were slow, but his speed was fast.

I don’t know if it’s because of my mood, but my perception of time is somewhat different depending on my mood.

The misty meadow has no reference.

"We're here. ..."

It feels like we have reached the end of the world.

The vast ocean finally appeared vaguely in front of us.

Even the dragons who had witnessed the shocking scene of the world's transformation were amazed by this scene.

However. Before that scene.

Veblen discovered, however, a person standing silently at the edge of the grass in the distance.

"who?……"

The girl just put her hands in her pockets, her long hair slightly messy fluttering in the breeze. She stood there quietly, not caring, but not knowing who she was waiting for. Occasionally, she just stretched out her hand and yawned, then turned her head lazily - revealing her lazy half-open eyes.

...What's going on? There was someone else before me?

Veblen paused.

Maybe we should take a step back and look at the situation first.

But Veblen knew it the moment the idea came to him.

It's too late.

Those lazy eyes were clearly staring at him.

It was as if the sky was just a part of the giant beast that was pressing down - it lowered its head slightly, the moonlight was its half-open pupils, the starlight was its shimmering scales, and its slightly folded wings brought a soft breeze but a biting chill - but it just lowered its head and looked at Veblen silently.

Veblen involuntarily took a step back.

This feeling does not come from strength.

Only if you are of the same race can you feel it so strongly.

The girl opposite also spread out her black bone wings, as if calling on the newcomers to submit to her under her pressure.

That is a more noble power that cannot be described by strength, and comes from the origin of blood.

"Lord Yardi?..." Veblen suddenly spoke.

The girl on the other side was startled when she heard this somewhat familiar voice.

The intimidating figure in the illusion has returned to the lazy, ordinary girl she was at the beginning.

The breeze caressing the grass around me finally became a little gentler.

"It is indeed Lord Yaerti... Hehe, Lord Yaerti, do you still remember me?"

Veblen grinned again and trotted towards Yarti. When he got close, he tried to pounce on her.

Yaerti frowned and turned away.

Veblen was not annoyed, and continued to come closer with a smile, like a puppy wagging its tail: "Lord Yarti, why are you here?"

"Veblen? Are you alone?" Yarti asked back.

Veblen was not angry when the question was avoided. He showed his two rows of small serrated fangs and said, "After all, I am probably the only one who can arrive so early. I wonder why Lord Yaerti can arrive so early. Is this place always open? No way."

She asked again: "And... it seems that Lord Yaerti is not in a hurry. Lord Yaerti... is he waiting for something?"

Yarti sighed inwardly, thinking that this girl was still as troublesome as ever.

Yes. Yarti actually knew this girl.

——Perhaps he should be considered as my descendant.

229. The God's Position is Predetermined

Apart from her appearance, Veblen might not be a lovely girl.

His strength might be slightly inferior to Yaerti, but not by much. It was just their bloodline that made their status slightly different.

But she would never miss such an event. Perhaps this was also a troublesome aspect of her character.

Yaerti yawned deliberately, but the girl in her peripheral vision was still staring at her with curious eyes.

Her actions reminded Yaerti of the black-haired girl from the past. Just a simple look could make people relieve all their tension. But Veblen's look made people feel more uncomfortable - maybe there was no malice, but it didn't make people feel cute.

Veblen finally took a step back and slowly walked to the edge of the abyss.

The magnificent scenery feels like you are at the edge of the world.

"As expected of the world where the Beast's Sacred Artifact exists - how many people can create such a scene? ...It's so magnificent that it makes people want to jump in and become a part of it. Hehe~" Veblen grinned and looked back at Yarti.

"I advise you not to do that."

"Lord Yaerti, don't you want me to jump?" Veblen said with a smile: "Lord Yaerti... don't you want to stop everyone here?"

With Lord Yarti's strength, he is far from being able to do this -

"Yes."

The response must be straightforward.

Veblen, who had not expected this answer at all, was stunned.

"Ya, Lord Yaerti... Let me ask you again, do you want to stop everyone who attempts to obtain the artifact here?!" Veblen's voice fluctuated a little: "...Everyone?"

"That was the original plan."

“No, as expected of Lord Yarti… But, but, if those who have some strength come…”

"Same." Yarti said, "At least I will do my best."

Crazy, right? ... Veblen imagined the vast army that would soon arrive, and the changes in the world would surely not be hidden from the eyes of those who are truly powerful.

Even Veblen, who loves trouble... couldn't help but feel the urge to run away.
