Chapter 67: A handsome big sister, a bit scary

~7 min read 1,320 words

Meanwhile.

Black Bullet world.

Late at night.

A group of little lolis lived in the same house, chatting non-stop.

Clearly, they were all excited and thrilled.

"Lynn-sama is definitely an angel!"

"Devil! It’s a devil!"

"That’s right! Angels didn't come to save us!"

"Then it’s a god!"

"I said it’s a devil! A devil!"

"Hmm, a devil god?"

"Decided! When I grow up, I want to be a shrine maiden serving Lynn-sama!"

"W-what! The only one who can be Lynn-sama’s shrine maiden is me!"

"Hey! Don't fight! We are all Lynn-sama’s shrine maidens!"

"Yay!!"

After a heated discussion, the excitement finally dissipated, and they fell into a deep sleep.

The next day.

Early in the morning, the Cursed Children got up early.

Although they were only children around ten years old.

But their miserable lives made them exceptionally sensible.

Lynn-sama not only took them in but also let them become devils, completely breaking the curse of the Gastrea virus.

In their eyes, Lynn-sama is their god!

They decided to repay Lynn-sama!

So they waited eagerly, hoping Lynn-sama could let them do something for him.

Seeing this, Lynn smiled.

He didn't refuse either.

They need to show their own value.

This will make them feel needed.

"Then, the mission of bringing back your companions is left to you."

"Yes!!" xN

Outer District.

Nishida Tamako came to the top of a remote sewer.

She squatted down and knocked on the manhole cover rhythmically.

Before long, a small head poked out quietly.

She wore a tattered hat on her head, her silver hair looked a bit dirty, her thin eyebrows were slightly sunken, and her silver-purple pupils carried a trace of nervousness.

After seeing it was Nishida Tamako, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She spoke weakly.

"Ta, Tamako, you’re back..."

"Sui-chan, I brought good news!"

"Ah... r-really?"

She hurriedly made room, "Quick, come in."

Nishida Tamako said "Heh" and skillfully crawled into the sewer entrance.

It was just a pity that her new clothes would be stained with the smell.

She steadied herself and looked at her companions in the sewer.

This was just a small hideout, counting her, there were only 14 Cursed Children in total.

And the look in their eyes as they looked at Nishida Tamako carried a trace of expectation.

Nishida Tamako did not let them down.

"Everyone, listen to me!"

"The god who saved us has descended!!"

Meanwhile.

Similar things were happening in the other twelve hideouts.

A while later.

Following the mobilization by the first group of Cursed Children.

Although the other Cursed Children felt various emotions such as hesitation, unease, and disbelief.

Out of trust for their companions who had shared their hardships, they still prepared to leave the damp sewers.

They headed toward the shelter created by that Lord God, as described by their companions.

Two military-green trucks were parked in the neutral zone that radiated to all the hiding spots.

Saeko Busujima leaned against one of the military trucks.

She remained vigilant of the surroundings at all times.

The outer area was not safe.

Gastrea would appear from time to time to attack the Cursed Children who came out to scavenge.

According to the description from the first group of Cursed Children, they were to shelter a total of 113 Cursed Children this time.

With such a large-scale migration, it would be easy to cause panic among the Cursed Children if they encountered Gastrea.

However...

As long as she didn't encounter high-stage Gastrea, Saeko Busujima could handle it.

Yes, as long as it wasn't Stage IV, she could solo the Gastrea while ensuring the safety of the Cursed Children.

"They're here."

Suddenly, Saeko Busujima spoke, her gaze fixed on Tamako Nishida, who was waving at her not far away.

Seeing this, she also smiled.

"Are they here? Are they here?"

On the other truck, Shizuka Marikawa jumped down and began to look around.

Yes.

Saeko Busujima and Shizuka Marikawa were the only two people in Lynn's peerage who could drive.

When Lynn learned of this, he was quite speechless.

He immediately urged them to practice their driving skills in the Dead Body world.

Of course.

If they could learn Magic Square teleportation, that would be a different story.

Not to mention anything else.

If they could learn it.

At the very least, it would be much more convenient for transferring the Cursed Children.

"Big Sister Saeko! Big Sister Shizuka!"

Tamako Nishida walked over with thirteen little lolis in a grand procession.

Saeko Busujima smiled gently and then said, "Go wait on the truck first; you are the only ones who have arrived for now."

The Cursed Children behind Tamako Nishida looked at each other, feeling nervous and uneasy, their eyes darting away, not daring to look at Saeko Busujima.

One of them even wished she could shrink her entire body, praying that no one would notice her.

A while later.

Under Tamako Nishida's comfort and guidance.

They finally climbed onto the truck.

Soon.

The second, third, and fourth waves also arrived at Saeko Busujima's location.

For now, no accidents had occurred.

Until the arrival of the fifth wave.

"Eh? What happened?"

Mariko Noda, who was leading the Cursed Children forward, exclaimed.

Rumble—

A slight tremor came from under their feet.

As if something was moving.

The next second!

A huge monster broke through the ground from behind the Cursed Children's squad!

"Ah!"

The sudden change caused the Cursed Child at the very back to fall to the ground.

She looked back, her face filled with terror.

A Gastrea that looked like a centipede and also like a spider came into view.

Its face had no discernible features, only a large vertical mouth occupying the entire space, with three rows of serrated teeth embedded inside.

"Hiss—"

A wisp of poisonous mist flowed from its abdomen.

"Oh no!!"

On the truck.

The Cursed Children who had already taken their seats saw the scene not far away and exclaimed one after another.

Their hearts sank suddenly.

They, they would die!

What to do! What to do!!

Being Cursed Children themselves, their hearts were filled with worry and grief.

Clang—

Just as they were in despair, Saeko Busujima's blade left its sheath.

She raised her blade and swung it rapidly toward the Gastrea!

Whoosh—

A white flash of light that seemed to cut through the entire airflow flew toward the Gastrea at high speed!

Without giving the Gastrea time to react, the slash quickly severed its seemingly hard shell!

Making a sizzling sound of cutting flesh!

With a boom, the upper body of the Gastrea was cut in half at the waist and slammed onto the ground!

"Eh?"

Almost all the Cursed Children were stunned when they saw this scene.

"So, so cool, big sister!"

On the truck, someone exclaimed in a low voice.

Mariko Noda was also stunned for a moment, but she quickly shouted, "What are you standing there for? Run!"

The others were awakened one after another and hurriedly ran forward, taking the fallen Cursed Child with them.

Mariko Noda knew the characteristics of Gastrea.

As long as their core was not destroyed, they would not die.

She shouted loudly, "Big Sister Saeko, you have to destroy its core, otherwise it will regenerate!"

Saeko Busujima narrowed her eyes.

She saw that although the Gastrea had been cut in half, its lower body was still standing.

On the severed surface, dark flesh tumors were wriggling crazily, as if something was about to grow out.

Core?

Saeko Busujima turned her eyes around it, but did not find any core.

However...

If she couldn't find it, she would just have to cut it a few more times.

She swung her blade a few more times.

The spider-like Gastrea was immediately divided into many pieces, which fell onto the ground with a thud.

Eww~

The eyes of the Cursed Children were filled with terror. ===== CHAPTER 179 =====
