Mythical Slayer: Mythical Girls Contract

103 Chapter 103 – Acting Alone

At Amber's side, she was walking around the coast of Constanta to find the Dragon King.

Even if the creature was called the Dragon King, it was also known as the Dragon God and the Sea God. That was why, mostly, the Dragon King stayed at sea; hence Amber tried to find her here.

"It's no use." The Phoenix girl sighed tiredly. "The Dragon King concealed her presence and Spirit Power once she arrived in this country. I can't feel her anymore." She muttered to herself, sitting on a bench at an empty beach.

She pouted as her search ended in naught.

"Kai will be disappointed in me… And I don't want that. I want him to look at me more…"

It was an earnest wish of hers, and that was why she worked hard to get his attention more. Being saved by him, she had grown attached to and loved Kai.

At first, she didn't think that she would grow so attached like this. She only thought that she was comfortable around him and liked him after making a contract with him, teasing him sometimes to get his reaction. But…

"Who knows that he truly cares about me, and I've grown to love him in just a few days. As expected from the Ruler… No, Kai, I guess." Her lips curled up in a smile as she stood up.

Staying here would be pointless as she couldn't find the Dragon King. The other party was so strong that even she couldn't find her and breached Dragon King's concealment.

Maybe if Amber used all her power and turned back into her real form, she would be able to fly above the dark clouds to find the Dragon King. However, that could also be taken as disrespectful by the Dragon King.

Proper etiquette was needed to meet the Dragon King. And the only one who could skip that etiquette was only the strongest, the previous Ruler. There was a chance that the Dragon King wouldn't mind if Kai also skipped that etiquette, but surely not Amber.

"If the Dragon King gets angry because I tried to meet her without making an appointment through her servants, the world will also get involved. And I can't do that, or Kai will get angry at me."

Walking back to the main street of Constanta, across from many architectures that still looked from the early 20th century, Amber suddenly stopped when she felt a spike for Spirit Power concentrating at one spot.

She narrowed her eyes in a certain direction to the mountainous area that connected Bucharest to Constanta.

"What?" She let out a confused voice, as she couldn't make out what she had felt. A familiar Spirit Power belonged to Liliana, the daughter of the Vampire lord, and more than 20 unknown ones could be felt from that area.

But what she couldn't believe was a small Spirit Power that seemed to belong to her master, Kai.

"Why is it so small?!"

Her heart was beating fast, worried about her master.

Gritting her teeth, she tried to calm herself down and understand the situation. This… was something that shouldn't be possible.

Spirit Power could decrease, but someone's reserve would stay the same. Kai was a special human being and could increase the size of his Spirit Power reserve by increasing his bond with his contracted Mythical creatures, unlike other people.

However, even he wouldn't be able to decrease his overall reserve. And what she felt right now was exactly that.

Ibaraki Douji was also nowhere to be felt.

"Wait." She suddenly remembered something as she was about to take off, turning back to her real form. "Could it be…"

Then she extended her range carefully to avoid disturbing the Dragon King. She limited her search around the ground.

It was when her Spirit Power that she spread reached Bucharest that she understood what happened. Her worry was lessened a little.

"I see…" She muttered and put up a barrier around her so normal people wouldn't be able to perceive or see her. "

Even so, she was still worried about her master. Because one of the Spirit Powers she felt that surrounded him was at least comparable to hers. She had never thought that the prey they had been searching for was that strong.

"Marcus' information was outdated." She said, her body slowly morphing into a giant fire bird with fiery feathers and a beautiful tail. Her size got bigger and bigger until she became a 10-meter-long bird.

It wasn't her final size, but it was the perfect size for her to travel anywhere. Her rather small size would allow her to use her speed the most.

According to Marcus, the Boogeymen were just as strong as the most powerful Slayer in this age. Amber had seen the so-called most powerful Slayer before, and the Boogeymen's strength was way more than that if she just took account of their Spirit Power.

"I need to go there, or Kai won't be able to defeat them."

Her fiery wings flapped, creating an air current that blew the dust off everywhere. Her figure slowly floated to the sky, leaving fire flakes with each of her flaps. Then when she was 10 meters above the ground, her figure shot out like a missile into the distance with a fire trail behind her.

"Wait for me, Kai! I will arrive in a few minutes!"

Meanwhile, back in Kai and Liliana, he started to engage with the Boogeymen's fake bodies. His plan worked, and it seemed like almost all of their fake bodies were here instead of wreaking around Romania.

"Bloody Spear!"

Liliana could also handle herself as she created a spear from the blood she kept reserved beneath her clothes, handling two fake bodies that went over to her.

"Kuh!" Even so, she was still a bit overwhelmed.

She was pushed away by the fake bodies and disappeared between the trees, leaving Kai alone with the rest of the Boogeymen.

"T-This is not fair!" The Vampire lord's daughter shouted loudly as she pierced one of the Boogeymen, but the other quickly attacked her and let the pierced one recover.

Only her voice could be heard as her figure had already disappeared. "Hang on! I will assist you immediately after I take care of these dolls!"

Kai didn't think she would be able to help him. He only smiled and looked at the Boogeymen, whose faces had been distorted due to their big grin.

"You're alone now!" A hoarse voice rang from their real body above the tree as the rest of their fake bodies surrounded him from various directions.

'18 + 1, and I am alone. But…'

"Don't misunderstand." He said to the Boogeymen.

Facing these creatures, Kai didn't even feel an ounce of fear because he had heard a voice in his head. He put on a stance, raising both hands.

It seemed like Amber had already realized his plan and came to him.

"Come."

"Kishisisi."
