Chapter 67 Doom 1

"Are you sure it was a good idea to come out here? Its outside the city zone after all."

"Ugh, stop your whining, I am trying to sleep."

"... Whatever."

She began meditating, trying to form a core but the pain overwhelmed her and she failed... again. "FUCK!!"

"Oh my fucking god Jolly, shut the fuck up!"

"Sorry, I am trying to make a new core but i keep failing, at this rate, i won't be able to use mana again." She looked at her hands, the expression on her face soft.

"Maybe that's for the best. Now let me sleep." She didn't even bat an eye, even though Jolly was clearly feeling bad.

"You are a jerk, I don't know how a nice guy like Vell put up with you." She crossed her arms, looking annoyed.

"Says the prostitute."

"... You know I didn't do that out of free will, so why are you being so mean about it?" She showed signs of crying but Kana still didn't care and just lied there, quiet. She sniffled, wiping at her eyes with the back of her hand. The quiet was almost worse than Kana's insults.

"I heard you two talking about Vell. Who are you?" The monster's voice was filled with bloodlust that made it hard for both of them to breathe. Kana thought through the fear and attacked with a kick but it was countered in a way that was too familiar to her.

'it can't be' She attacked again, this time she went low, aiming for the monster's right side and when the attention of the monster went to the right, she spun her body, changing her attack to a kick, aimed for the left side but it was easily caught. 'N-No way.'

"Hmm, the way you move, are you perhaps master's pupil?"

"Mast-" The monster raised her up with one hand and slammed her into the ground, knocking her out. The monster then turned to Jolly, sniffing her and spitting in disgust.

"You have a foul smell, what have you been doing with your body?" Jolly clenched her fists but did not respond, how could she. "Regardless of that, tell me how you know Vell?"

Her breath hitched in her throat. The mana coming of the monster alone sent shivers down her spine.

"I-I... We... We know him," she stammered, her eyes darting between it and the limp form of Kana nearby. "We used to... ah. We are his friends." It was a simplified version, leaving out the parts about the association, betrayal, and the lingering sense of guilt she carried.

The monster tilted its head, "Friends?" it sneered, the word dripping with skepticism. "You reek of dishonesty. And that one," it flicked its head towards Kana, "she has hatred in her heart, that at least is somewhat similar to him but i still doubt you two are important to him. So i will ask you again... who are you two?" Its mana filled the area, suffocating her.

"... he goes around with a girl named Yenna right? I know her, we were in the same team, please believe me!" It deactivated its mana, and she fell on her arms, huffing, trying to take in as much air as possible.

"Speak... she told me about what happened to her... are you perhaps Jolly?"

Her blood ran cold.
