Everything was being fueled by Magic here, even the lights. So, complete darkness here meant only one thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Intruder!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sella and Leysritt dashed across the kitchen, leaving behind pale white blurs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In only a few seconds, they rushed into the Grand Hall, where Sakura was waiting for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, when they reached the place, they couldn’t find any sign of the girl, a nervous expression flashing across their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sella’s eyes hardened, a globe of white light appearing in the palm of her right hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next to her, the quiet Leysritt took out her massive halberd. \"Ms. Sakura!\" she called out. \"... Are you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something shifted in the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leysritt and Sella jumped, their breathing quickening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when they looked closer, they found it was just a flicker of shadow. Nothing else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think we should let our disgusting Master know,\" Sella spat, mentioning Black. \"It would be...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a chill ran down her spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the corner of her eye, she spied a flash of red and black, hovering above Leysritt’s head like a guillotine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leysritt\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crackkkkkkk!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant halberd in Leysritt’s hand blurred, striking off the strip of cloth, the contact letting out fiery sparks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a hiss, dozens more red-black strips of cloth hurled toward them from the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white globe of light in Sella’s hand spun on her palm, dividing in two, then three before becoming six... stopping at a dozen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like bullets, all the Mana blobs shot toward the incoming strips of cloth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the moment they neared them, and the instant they touched the tip of those strips, all the white blobs vanished, disappearing into a mass of blackness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leysritt and Sella’s eyes popped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steps rang in their ears as the darkness in front of them materialized, taking a beautiful, evil shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the darkness, Sakura Matou, dressed in a red-black striped gown, walked out, the end of her white purple hair flailing as if each strand had a life of its own. Her purple eyes, half-opened, carried a dreaminess within them. Her head kept bobbing left and right as if she were drunk, and even her gait carried a drunkenness, her legs wobbling now and then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only one thing seemed truly in control about her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dress...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Shadow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"... What sorcery is this?!\" Sella wondered aloud. \"Sakura! Snap out of it!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In response, all the strips at the end of her gown lifted simultaneously before launching themselves toward the two maids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Booms-Bangsrang out across the Castle as the two Homunculi fought the possessed Sakura, parrying the incoming attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a loud noise, an entire wall collapsed, the two maids getting thrown out in the corridor, rubble flying here and there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leysritt struck the ground with her halberd, regaining her footing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sella’s soles let out a golden magical glow, letting her step on the air to reposition herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they skidded and arrived at the moonlit courtyard, their eyes landed on the collapsed wall in front of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the darkness beyond, Sakura was standing, her entire figure glitching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leysritt...\" Sella said, letting out a breath. \"... Run!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no other option left to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between the two of them, one must leave the Castle and warn the others about this insidious plot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Castle buried under many-layered Bounded Fields, if they died here, no one would ever know the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, running away wasn’t an option... not for both of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, nodding heavily at her companion, Leysritt turned around and bolted... and suddenly fell face forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brokenly, both Sella and Leysritt, now using the halberd to prop herself up, looked at the spot where the latter had been standing a moment ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, surrounded by thin, shadowy tendrils, was Leysritt’s left foot, cut right under the knee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a muffled crunching sound, the entire foot vanished, the possessed Sakura gulping behind them, licking her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sella let out a shout, creating a humongous ball of fire in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next to her, knowing her purpose, and despite losing her leg, Leysritt kicked the ground with the remaining leg, blurring out of existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a fiery, hissing sizzle, Sella fired the ball of fire toward Sakura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the moment it reached her, the giant fireball got squeezed by blackness, making it vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Far behind a stunned and terrified Sella, Leysritt had just landed on the roof.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One more jump, and she would cross all the Bounded Fields, as she was allowed to come and go through them as she pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, just as she pushed against the stone, a mass of shadow propped itself up in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the blackness, a spot of golden light came out... becoming a giant, sizzling fireball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Booooooooooooooom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A charred Leysritt shot across the space and landed back in the courtyard, the halberd lodging itself in the earth next to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stuttering under the burning pain, Leysritt looked to her right, barely able to see through her right eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, Sella was standing as if petrified, red-black strips plunged deep into her body, painting her white gown red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with another flicker, Sella’s head rolled down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"... Mistress...\" Leysritt worded, remembering Illya, coughing blood. \"... Forgive... us...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A red and black fountain of cloth-strips rose in her vision, rising higher and higher... before turning around and plunging, crushing her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sakura Matou stood for a moment between the mutilated corpses. Then, with a flicker, she disappeared, reappearing underground. For a moment, she lingered there before disappearing, reappearing in the cellar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flickering rapidly, Sakura scanned through the entire Castle, making sure nothing alive remained here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one last glitch, she blinked out of existence altogether, leaving behind utter silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, the space flickered in the courtyard once again... but it wasn’t the possessed Sakura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his hands clasped behind his back, it was Kai, looking at the two maids’ corpses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, sighing, the Master Manipulator put Leysritt charred corpse in his Inventory and disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*****************\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AN:Up to 60 more Chapters are available in advance across three Tiers.
