My mother's love song

Zesta touched the black pattern with his finger, and his fingertips immediately sank into the skin.

Miraculously, not a drop of blood flowed out. It was as if his palm was reaching deep into a flesh-colored quagmire, and he began to stir the inside of himself.

"Another soul, completely destroyed."

The next moment, the pattern seemed to be moving, as if it was rotating with the momentum of a gear or a revolver, and the black pattern moved to the left side of the abdomen, and the new red pattern replaced it and filled the left chest.

"In that case, use another face from now on."

Then, for some reason, Zesta's entire body and face began to pulsate in sync with the change in the pattern.

As the magic power surged, he changed from a young man to a teenager.

Then, the boy pulled his fingertips out from his chest and stroked the black mark on his side with a dazed expression.

"As you can see, this face is also not the real me."

"…Six-in-One Men's Clothing, Dorothea."

Rhode coldly told the vampire with multiple faces her real name and nickname.

The name alone is easy to understand. She is a female vampire who has six spirit cores called "bullets" stored in her body.

It's not just six lives you get, you also get that person's appearance, abilities and even concepts.

An effect similar to Pain's Six Paths?

At the same time, as a vampire, as long as he continues to suck blood, or even devour the magic power of corpses, he can maintain his life.

The night before yesterday, Kuang Xinzi killed one of her soul cores, and just now he killed another one. Even so, she still has four spare hearts besides her original one.

By the way, this guy's relative is the Demon King Van Feim, who is one of the oldest Dead Apostles along with the White Winged Lord.

The fourteenth seat of the twenty-seven ancestors is a special existence that has built a strong communication network in human society not with the abilities of a vampire or a Dead Apostle, but with its economic strength and power. It is the oldest species that possesses the power of both Dead Apostles and humans.

A wealthy and powerful vampire who holds a high status in human society and is welcomed by the Magic Association.

In contrast, Dorothea is a pure pleasure-seeking vampire.

According to an Italian Lolita that Rod knew, Dorothea was an Elizabeth Bathory-like female vampire who liked to bathe in virgin blood.

"...!"

The moment he was sure that Rhode did not call out the name "Dolothea" casually, the vampire boy's face was obviously shaken.

She cast an extremely resentful look at him and bit her lip.

The vampire couldn't understand why his disguise was so perfect.

Where on earth did this guy get the information from?

In order to hide the embarrassment, he gave a more cunning smile and turned to look at Qiang Xinzi.

"As expected of the king who has woven the Far East Islands into his lair! You actually saw through my true form at a glance. What a miscalculation, a huge miscalculation!"

"Now that I've been exposed, there's nothing I can do. Just as your master said, my name, my real name is Dorothea! I have to tell you this name no matter how many times I have to tell you! Ah, I want to tell you!"

Fanatic had stood up from the ground and was glaring at Dorothea.

After witnessing her resurrection with her own eyes, even Zexinzi, who possessed a Berserker-style combat module, understood her abilities.

That's a monster with several hearts.

In that case, kill her until not a heart is left!

Assassin would just wait for Rhode's order and rush over like an arrow to tear the heretic vampire to pieces!

"Destroy all six of that guy's cores until only the original remains, then tie him up and bring him to me."

Rhodes gave orders to Fanatic.

Considering the grand ceremony that will be held in Tokyo, she must be under control regardless of whether the other party has done evil here or not.

As for why he didn't kill her... Rhode was simply curious about what the female vampire with six male faces really looked like.

"Yes!"

The moment Rhodes' voice fell, Kuang Xinzi had already taken action.

She was like a gust of wind, killing her own heart, pouring all the anger she had accumulated into magic, and flew towards Dorothea.

Feeling the magic power of her master flowing into her body, the girl hummed as she released the third Noble Phantasm.

"Black flames surround me"

"Delusional Patrolling Spirit [Zabaniya]!"

The mist that appeared out of nowhere transformed into monsters, poisonous snakes, tigers, leopards, and giants, and killed them together with Kuang Xinzi.

“Hahaha! Is that a phantom? They can actually control something like this!?”

"…It's not domination. It's an insult to our great ancestors and their teachings!"

"Oh my, this is really bad, King of the Far East, I have no intention of going to war with you!"

The next moment, the revolver tattoo on the young Dorothea's chest spun again.

After a flash of dazzling light, the vampire's appearance changed from a young boy to a giant werewolf covered in hair as red as the sunset.

The Werewolf is one of the six aspects of Dorothea, and is an individual that focuses on speed and hand-to-hand combat.

Having said that, she has not yet recovered to her full strength and does not intend to fight against Keishinko head-on.

Knowing that Rhode would not attack her personally, Dorothea dodged the attacks of Zealot and his summons while waving at Rhode and Elquet with ease.

"Farewell then! King of the Far East and Princess True Ancestor!"

"Stop!!!"

Zealot roared and pounced, but Dorothea, who had transformed into a werewolf, easily dodged it and the vampire fled into the darkness.

"What the hell is going on...it's such a mess."

Elquet scratched his hair speechlessly.

Rhodes, who was standing aside, showed a meaningful smile at this time.

The order he gave to Fanatic just now was just a smokescreen. He had no intention of letting Dorothea go.

"Well, let's test the [Principle Blood Ring] I got from my mother here."

Rhodes reached out his hand toward his own shadow.

Chapter 426 Jinfu Jinfu, the audience cheered!

"Delusion Heart Sound [Zabaniya]!"

Dorothea's figure was blending into the shadows of the city's tall buildings, but Assassin was not about to let go of the dirt that had to be removed.

The assassin girl focused on this point, sharpened her mind in an instant, and released her Noble Phantasm to destroy the opponent's soul core.

A red arm imbued with magic power stretched out from behind Zeshinko and approached Dorothea, trying to destroy her.

"See, this is why I don't want to fight you! With an almost unlimited supply of mana, you can completely ignore the consumption of mana and fire your Noble Phantasms in succession! There's no way I can win!"

Fanatic possesses 18 kinds of Hassan's treasures, including assassination, reconnaissance, control, stealth, melee, etc. It sounds very good, but the treasures consume magic power. No matter how many treasures he has, there is a limit to the number of times he can use them.

But if her master is Rhodes, the nature is completely different.

He has a dazzling and ever-changing method of killing.

Now, even if it was the stubborn 27th Ancestor, Kuang Xinzi was confident that he could defeat him!

"Oh my, you're so annoying. It's great to be chased by your love interest, but I also have my own private space. Can you control your mood for a moment? Humph!"

Dorothea, whose existence core had been destroyed by the same Noble Phantasm a few minutes ago, imagined that if there was an emergency, she could use more cores as substitutes to escape from this place.

So, Dorothea, with a broken heart, chose to discard the core.

Before Assassin's eyes, the red-haired werewolf stabbed his own chest with his sharp claws and dug out his heart.

"!?"

Crazy Xinzi, who aimed at the werewolf's heart and released his treasure, had to make a choice.

Should he use his Noble Phantasm to curse the heart that the werewolf dug out himself, or should he ignore the abandoned spirit core and aim for the heart of the next being that appears?

Although Fanatic has realized the specificity of Dorothea's blood-sucking species through her master's explanation, she never fights out of calculation but out of instinct.

She instinctively chose to pierce the heart with the knife in her right hand, and use the method of annihilation of the Noble Phantasm on the next body.

However, her actions were read by Dorothea.

Therefore, the dying man-wolf has a smile on his face.

The magazine-like pattern engraved on her chest was spinning, mixed with endless desire. Dorothea put on a creepy smile and began to transform into the next posture.

That's not a human, it's a human-shaped piece of iron that can't even be considered a living thing.

Or is it a type of gargoyle?

The smile that emerged from the mouth-like hole and the magazine-shaped pattern on her chest were the only things she had in common with her pre-transformation form.

The next moment, Assassin saw it.

The heart of the dug-out human wolf was also engraved with some kind of magic pattern.

"!"

This is a sacrifice!

By the time she noticed, it was too late.

Because the spell was activated the moment the heart was dug out, it was more likely that Dorothea's awareness made him win the gamble than Assassin's mistake.

Rumble!

There was a huge explosion at the scene and the street was surrounded by a blinding flash.

……

……

……

"Cough cough cough..."

A few seconds later, Dorothea appeared next to a telephone booth several kilometers away.

Leaning against the telephone booth, the figure that appeared there was neither a man nor a werewolf, but a petite blonde girl.

"Two existence cores have already been consumed tonight... But first, I'd like to say goodbye, beautiful and lovely Assassin."

Although he was gambling his life on whether he could shake off Kyouko, he was able to escape during the switch because she released an offensive Noble Phantasm.

If the Noble Phantasm released by Zeonko at that time was of the detection type, Dorothea would be caught up immediately even if her aura disappeared.

But it was easier to get rid of than expected...

Or, my dear, you have also been injured more seriously than you can imagine?

Although Dorothea was worried about Assassin's safety, as a vampire, her current state was definitely not safe.

She consumed two hearts within 5 minutes, and at this moment she had to take off her "six-piece men's costume" and turn back into a real girl.

"Really... this is more troublesome than I thought."

Dorothea covered her chest with one hand and walked in the alley dragging half a leg.

Wanting to just disappear into the depths of darkness, she took another step.

The late-night alley, which had been airy just a few seconds ago, began to be filled with layers of white fog.

However, Dorothea, who was too injured, did not notice this sense of disharmony.

Moved another step.

A pale frost formed on the walls, but she still didn't notice it.

Moved another step.

"My body feels so cold. Is this also the effect of my decreased function? I haven't been injured for a long time so I forgot about it. You are indeed my beloved~

Huh, run back now."

"Where are you planning to escape to?"
