A girl in a school uniform slowly rose up from the ancient well while hugging a porcelain bottle with a thin neck.
A formless energy carried the almost translucent body and made it float in mid-air.
"Senior Ling!"
Kana cried out in shock.
Tanya, on the other hand, seemed to have realized something. She took a few steps back and looked at Senior Ling with a terrified face.
Kana wasn't an idiot.
After the initial shock, it was followed by rage after the realization.
"You are the one behind all this?"
Kana questioned the figure in front of her.
"Em."
Senior Ling didn't deny it, she nodded softly and looked at Jen who was still in a daze. Her fair hand slightly waved.
"Senior Ling."
With an idiotic smile, Jen wanted to walk towards Senior Ling.
"Don't move!
Hold her back! "
Kana shouted loudly.
The first one was to stop Jen and the second one was to Tanya.
"My servant told me that the aura of death has filled the area!"
Tanya hugged Jen who seemed to have lost his mind and could only walk forward in a daze. She then said with a sour face.
Regardless of whether Tanya was different from others or not, it was true that she had talents. She could clearly feel that death was approaching her.
Especially when she hugged Jen, the shadow that accompanied death was about to devour her.
"I know!"
Kana said.
Then, Kana clenched her teeth and turned around.
"Why did you lie to us?"
Amidst the angry roar, flames appeared on the half-demon's hands. Like a leopard, the half-demon pounced towards' Senior Sister Ling '.
Fuuuu!
The scorching wind echoed in the small space.
Then …
The half-monster passed through Senior Sister Ling's body without any delay.
The flames did not cause the slightest bit of damage to this soul-like body.
Kana was stunned.
"Flames?
"You're too weak!"
Senior Sister Ling said and waved her hand.
Pak!
A clear knife-hand strike landed on the half-demon's neck.
Despite possessing extraordinary resistance, Kana fell limply on the ground.
Senior Ling didn't even look at Kana who fainted on the ground, she walked towards Tanya who was still hugging Jen tightly.
"Are you not going to let go of my 'body'?"
Senior Sister Ling said in a calm tone.
However, the surroundings began to change rapidly. A gloomy and cold aura turned into a raging gale, wreaking havoc. Tanya who was hugging Jen felt like she was going to be frozen the moment the gale hit her.
"M-my hundred thousand servants, my Knight will not let you go …"
Tanya's teeth were chattering, her words were stuttering.
"You're just like a clown. What a pity for your talent. If you weren't like this, you would have been qualified to become my body."
'Ling' seemed to be a little interested when she saw that Tanya still hadn't given up on hugging Chen.
However, this bit of interest was not enough to delay her for too long.
Wu!
The cold, gloomy wind turned into a formless giant hand as' Senior Ling 'swung her arm, separating Tanya and Jen. Then, the seemingly gentle energy turned violent.
Tremendous power was infused into Tanya's body, sending her crashing into the wall behind her.
He was different from the half-demon who was still useful.
Against Tanya, 'Senior Ling' would not show any mercy.
Likewise, she wouldn't care about the fading of Tanya's life.
'Ling' didn't pour any more energy into Tanya who would surely die. She slowly walked towards Jen. Even in her current state, she was a little excited.
She had been plotting for a long time.
Wasn't it all for this moment?
The excited emotions caused her translucent body to ripple a little.
"Life! Rebirth! "
'Ling' couldn't help but exclaim softly.
Then, just as her palm was about to touch Jen, a gunshot was fired.
Bang!
[Blessed Bullets] made her retract her palm.
Furious, 'Ling' turned around and looked at the troublemaker.
However, when she saw Kieran grabbing the back of Tanya's neck with one hand and a gun in the other, she couldn't help but be stunned. Then, more rage burst out from the deepest part of her soul.
Or rather, she was enraged out of embarrassment.
She realized she had been tricked.
"When did you realize?"
However, there were some things she couldn't figure out.
It was supposed to be a flawless setup, how could it be seen through?
"It was at the very beginning!
From the moment I saw you, I had my suspicions and after your ambush on the Funeral Society's reinforcements, it got even more suspicious. Any normal person would be able to guess it was you, let alone the watcher you sent out, it was too easy to be noticed and followed! "
Kieran didn't hesitate to attack her with his words.
In fact, he wasn't sure at first as well. Although he saw the scene where Tanya was' exorcised 'and sensed that Tanya was similar to a demon, it wasn't until the scene where the Funeral Society's reinforcements were killed that he was able to confirm some necessary clues. Since he couldn't find out the route of the reinforcements from the Funeral Society's headquarters, then there was only one explanation left: foresight.
Coincidentally, there were two of them in Saint Brilliant High School.
One of them was the dead 'Ling'.
The other one was Tanya who often acted up.
Coincidentally, based on the scene where the reinforcements were killed, Tanya had a higher possibility of being the reinforcements.
What could cause the reinforcements to suddenly brake and change direction?
An illusion that could pass off as the real thing.
It didn't require much, all Tanya had to do was create an illusion of a normal person and it would be enough for the reinforcements to do what the mastermind wanted.
Tanya had the ability to do so as well.
More importantly, Tanya's usual 'normal' behavior would make one think that it was just a disguise.
However, everything was too coincidental.
It made Kieran who was already suspicious to begin with go into deep thoughts.
Therefore, he made the arrangements after that, allowing the Funeral Society members to request reinforcements from the headquarters while he pretended to be eager for quick results in order to complete the Funeral Society's mission.
It was all to lure out the mastermind behind the scenes.
In simple words, until that moment, Kieran finally confirmed who the mastermind was.
Though, Ling didn't know anything about it.
The scheme that she was so proud of was seen through by someone else with a single glance, it only made Ling angrier and more embarrassed.
However, this' Senior Sister Ling 'suddenly burst into laughter.
"I'll chew you slowly!"
Especially your brain, I like the brains of the wise saints but you are a little too smart, didn't you notice I was stalling for time? "
She looked at Kieran and said word by word.
Fuaaa!
The continuous sound of flapping wings suddenly rang out.
The black bird was like a hornet whose nest was poked, it flew out from the well with a buzz and flew towards Kieran like a dark cloud.
"Is that so?
What a coincidence, me too! "
Kieran laughed.
In the next moment, a loud voice sounded from behind Senior Sister Ling.
