Chapter 427: The Sisters' Weakness

Chapter 427 The Sisters' Weakness

There's a wound on the palm of Riara's hand. The raging wave that released from the wound was undoubtedly her blood. 『Curly』 is an ability that can be activated by touching the blood flowing in the target's body. Of course, Riara's own blood could be the target of this ability. Yes, she released a large amount of her own blood from the wound.

The kitchen, which has just been cleaned, turned red again. The amount of blood released is also tremendous, and it's rushing at the girls like a giant tsunami. It's working as a wall and an attack at the same time. It swallowed the attacks that Haruna and the others unleashed all at once, and now it's approaching to swallow the three of them.

「Whoa!? That thing is bad news in this closed place!」

「We should think of a solution! Haruna, can you suck it with your black hole!?」

「I think I can! After all, I've never lost an eating contest except to my mother!」

「Alright! Then, I will support you so you don't get blown away! Wait, your mother is amazing, isn't she!?」

「She is! Graviton Hole!」

In front of Haruna's outstretched hands, a black hole with a diameter as large as a person's height is formed. This 『Graviton Hole』 is a high-level magic that's very difficult to handle, which can be acquired at level 100 of Darkness Magic. Compared to the extremely small 『Tiny Hole』, this magic has a much larger size and greater suction power, so great that even the current Haruna can't move it from the spot where it's formed. For now, it's just a defensive magic. However, its effectiveness is enormous. It's sucking the approaching red tsunami and doesn't allow a single drop to pass behind it.

「I can't move it, but the capacity is a lot!」

「Ooh, it's sucking everything! It's not like she can pour it endlessly―― no, on second thought, common sense won't work against Lily-shishō's sisters!」

「Right~」

「Something is coming in the tsunami!」

Leaving Graviton Hole on the spot, Haruna and the others dispersed to the left and right. The next moment, a red line passed by the place where the three of them were just a moment ago. The red line is thin and therefore difficult to see, and it is also used the tsunami of blood as a cover. If they had not known it was coming with some kind of detection skill, they would not have been able to avoid it in time after seeing it. Even with Haruna's black hole, the red line went straight and didn't bend at all.

「What the hell is that!? A red laser!?」

「Rather than a laser, it's more like a waterjet!」

Chinatsu's guess was right on the mark. In addition to the large amount of blood Riara released at the beginning, she also made a small wound on the finger of her other hand and shot her blood at a different time. Perhaps it was a physical operation that could only be done by the vampire's body, the wounded finger was squeezed with hardened muscles, and the blood vessels were bizarrely visible. The amount of blood was the same as that of the tsunami, but the density of the blood was increased to the limit, creating an unthinkable power.

「Wow, it penetrated Maria-san's barrier! It's already fixed, though!」

「「It's not the time to be happy!」」

Haruna was excited by the vicious attack that destroyed even Maria's barrier, albeit momentarily. In fact, as Chinatsu and Touko pointed out, it was not the time for that. While hiding in the red tsunami, the shadow of Riara was approaching quietly――

「Hic! Ah, crap...」

「There!」

――But she carelessly let out a hiccup, and her whereabouts were known. Riara stopped Touko's roundhouse kick with one arm, and her cheeks were slightly flushed again. It seems that she got drunk again. However, her defensive actions were remarkably precise.

「You bastard...!」

「Oh no. It looks like I got drunk again~. Getting drunk with your own blood is narcissistic, right~?」

「Sei!」

Haruna immediately attacked Riara with her Doggan Staff, but Riara flapped her wings and evaded it. Her movements were something that can't be reproduced by humans.

「Haha~, I won't take your incomprehensible attack again, Pony-chan~」

In addition, Riara, still in her position, fired the waterjet of blood at the two as a counterattack. Touko immediately avoided it with her agility, and Haruna used her Doggan Staff as a shield to escape from her crisis.

「Tch!」

「Kuh!」

This attack is so powerful that the body would get cut off if touched by it. What is truly frightening is that Riara's ability can be activated at that time as well. Even the slightest contact with Riara's blood from the cut surface would result in an immediate loss. The blood in their bodies would be depleted, and they would dry up in an instant.

「Now, give me your blood――」

「――Hah!」

「Whoa!?」

An extreme foresight. Chinatsu had predicted that Riara would come to her current position when she avoided the attack from the Doggan Staff. Even before Riara evaded the attack, Chinatsu quickly slashed her sword at the place where Riara would escape to (though it's hard to say that she forestalled her since Riara arrived first). Then, Iwatōshi was able to slash Riara's back, just as she was counterattacking.

(It's shallow, but it's enough to use Hardship Clearing Sword!)

Riara received the surprise attack in a defenseless state, but she managed to avoid the crisis with minimal damage. But of course, the purpose of this slash is not to cut down Riara. The true purpose of this attack is to share the excess stress that Chinatsu had worked so hard to accumulate for this day.

「Ugh...! I-I feel sick...!」

Riara was not concerned about her slashed back, and she was just holding her mouth with one hand and looking as if she was trying to hold in something to throw up. Her figure is like that of a drunkard who drank too much and is about to let something rainbow-like come out of her mouth at any moment. For the Irygal Sisters, stress has a tremendous effect. The one who taught that to Chinatsu was one of the Great Eight Demons, Lilyvia Irygal.

「Take this!」

「Ugh...!」

Immediately after Chinatsu's attack, Touko quickly closed the gap between her and Riara. Remembering the training she once had under Lily, she aimed at the point where it would be most effective on a drunkard and unleashed a series of blows with her Berserk and ki-powered fists. As for the effect, well, you can guess it.

「Hah!」

「Gepuh...!」

In smooth cooperation, Haruna swung her Doggan Staff, filled with Death Scythe, Chaos Maia, and various other things, toward Riara who completely received Touko's attacks. Of course, her Unique Skill was also included in it. Haruna's vicious blow easily ripped apart Riara's torso, splitting it into upper and lower parts. If Riara is not a vampire, a race that's almost immortal, and if she hasn't leveled up her 『Regeneration』 skill to the extreme, that attack would have been instant death.

(It's weird, I should have never let my guard down. Also, I've been feeling really sick since Honor Student-chan's sword scratched me...! Pony-chan's attack was as merciless as always, and Half-baked-chan's attack awfully hit the core, making me feel sicker...! Ah, could it be that I'm being dead drunk!? I usually only get slightly drunk no matter how much I drink, though!? Uhh, what's wrong with these girls!? Ugh, I feel like I'm going to vomit...)

However, she seemed to be more concerned about her being drunk than her fatal injury.
