BXBX NOVEL Chapter 412: The surprised protagonist
Chapter 412: The surprised protagonist
Eiji rubbed his chin as if he had a beard even though he didn't.
"So it's because last night every window glass on the west side of the school suddenly broke and caused an uproar in many students."
"This morning the school security officer-"
"Cough! That's Grimoire Security, Eiji. Grimoire Security."
Lilith pretended to cough and corrected. Grimoire Security is basically the organization of school security officers in this school.
But the definition is a bit different, okay?
Not like ordinary school security officers.
The people in Grimoire Security have the sole purpose of removing all impurities in the school.
[Okay is that important?]
Eiji complained in his heart.
Of course it is!
Lilith said firmly in her heart. This is what a teacher must do, she must correct every mistake her students have.
Huh but is Eiji her student? Well, that's not important.
She just wanted to say it.
"...." Put aside those who could hear the inner voice.
Even Selina who couldn't hear it felt that Eiji and Lilith were flirting with each other.
Don't underestimate a woman's sixth sense!
Especially one who was a mage and a reporter at the same time.
Selina was suspicious.
It seemed like Eiji and Lilith's relationship was unusual.
That was fun to investigate but what about Arata? Selina couldn't help but think of a thrilling and painful love triangle.
On one side was the Magic King candidate who was destined to have all the Trinity Seven which meant that if there was no problem. Lilith should be with Arata.
On the other side is the super handsome boy who is one of the guests of honor invited by the principal and has an unusual relationship with Lilith.
Selina had drama in her head.
Eiji didn't know what Selina was thinking. More precisely no one knew what the blonde girl who kept holding her camera was thinking.
"This morning the Grimoire Security members found traces of the breakdown phenomenon at each scene. The Magic King candidate and several other Trinity Seven members who were there also joined the search."
"Selina, do you know where they went?"
[Actually from the original work, I know where they went. It must be that plot, right? It's that plot, I know.]
Then... why are you still asking?
The heroines were silent.
This man really likes to pretend.
Every day he pretends not to know. If one could not hear his inner voice, one would be fooled like Selina who innocently answered.
"I heard that they went to the Eternal Library because the magic fluctuations of the breakdown phenomenon reminded them of something similar in that place."
For some reason, Selina smiled wryly when she mentioned the place called the Eternal Library.
The girl looked rather depressed.
Why?
Rias and the others didn't know the story behind it.
But Lilith knew it was related to the incident that happened to Selina and her older sister in that place a year ago.
Should she explain it?
At this moment Eiji suddenly tapped Selina on the shoulder.
"Selina, leave it to me."
"Eh? Eiji-san, what do you mean?"
Selina was confused, she didn't understand why Eiji said that to her.
Lilith was also confused. But considering what Eiji said in his heart earlier about the plot of the original work.
Eiji probably already knew!
Just like when Eiji found out her true identity.
It was not impossible for the boy to do the same to Selina and her older sister.
"You'll find out later. For now, lead me to the library you said."
Eiji looked very calm when he said that, he was cool to the point of making Gasper marvel.
But his heart was not calm at all.
[I'm in a hurry! In the original work Selina's older sister who was one of the members of Trinity Seven and Grimoire Security was the cause of the breakdown phenomenon in this plot.]
[Since disappearing due to the breakdown phenomenon in the Eternal Library a year ago. That girl is actually trapped inside another dimension that exists in the Eternal Library and is doing crazy things like absorbing the Magic King Element that exists in that place.]
[But leave that aside. It's not important at all.]
The heroines: ???
What? So what's so important that you sound panicked?
Those who had known Eiji long enough didn't even know how the man's circuits worked in this situation.
The clues were too few, they couldn't guess what was making him panic unless...
[What's more important is that I can't let the protagonist Arata steal older sister Selina's innocence! Selina, don't worry, I'll bring Lieselote back!]
Unlike Rias and the other girls in Eiji's group who made expressions of "Oh, so that's what you're worried about."
They weren't surprised at all.
It was Eiji after all.
One of the things that could make him so excited and panicked was definitely what happened to pretty girls.
A beautiful girl whose innocence would be taken away by the protagonist.
It was enough to make Eiji panic.
They felt stupid for not being able to guess it earlier.
However, Lilith was different. She was shocked.
'Absorbing the Magic King Element in the Eternal Library is crazy, but...'
'S-Stealing Liese-san's innocence?! Arata, did that?!'
Lilith thought the innocence Eiji was referring to was Lieselote's virginity.
That was what made her favorable impression of Arata a little less.
Lilith didn't know Eiji was just exaggerating what he said. He didn't do it on purpose, cough.
It was just a matter of the vocabulary that came to his mind when remembering that scene in the anime.
...
In an environment that looks like ruins.
This place is actually in another dimension whose entrance is in the Eternal Library.
The atmosphere there was quite tense.
It was originally a reunion for the other members of the Trinity Seven— a long blonde haired girl who was slender and short and held a basketball-sized orb in her hand, Mira Yamana.
Then there was a tall, leggy, slender young woman. She had a slender chest and long black hair that covered her entire back. Her name was Akio Fudo. Just like Mira, she was a member of Trinity Seven and Grimoire Security who was currently on duty.
And there were three other Trinity Seven members fighting on their side.
It was a shoulder-length white-haired girl who looked short, slender and busty, Yui Kurata.
Another short girl, she had brown hair tied up high and held a katana like a ninja in her hand because she was indeed a ninja and a mage, Levi Kazuma
And a petite girl with shoulder-length light blue hair whose face was expressionless, Arin Kannazuki.
In the world of Trinity Seven, each of them could be called a beautiful mage.
But compared to a girl they fought against...
Hey how do I put it? There is a personal bias here.
"The Magic King candidate is a beginner in magic. It's a bit disappointing but it's a good thing for me."
"It just so happens that you have what I want and you all look delicious too."
The girl licked her red lips and bit them slightly with a blush on her pretty face.
The gesture looked sexy, just like her voluptuous figure clad in babydol... a black dress that noticed a lot of her white skin, especially the belly, and the cleavage of her large, plump breasts.
Her long legs are also clad in very tight black stockings.
Her face and long blonde hair are tied up in a twin tail style just like Selina.
But unlike Selina, her violet-colored eyes sparkle with a mischievous light.
She was another Trinity Seven member, Lieselote Sherlock, the twin sister of Selina who went missing in the Eternal Library one year ago. And just as Eiji had said in his heart, that was the case for Lieselote who was now confidently fighting five Trinity Seven members and one Magic King Candidate alone.
"Onii-san! Are you alright?!"
"Husband."
Yui and Arin immediately ran towards the location of a black-haired boy who had blood at the corner of his mouth because he had just coughed up blood and was leaning against one of the collapsed walls.
Who else if not the protagonist Arata?
The boy's stomach had just been kicked at the speed of light by Lieselote using her Logos Art magic. Basically a teleportation magic that allows her to teleport within a short distance instantly and indefinitely as long as she has enough magic.
[Tsk! What a hot girl. Luckily I'm not too late.]
Lieselote: ???
What's that? Did I hear it wrong?
Lieselote was sure she had just heard a man's voice in her head.
She was confused but didn't show it on her face.
Though she was becoming more vigilant and ascertaining if someone's magic was affecting her body and mind.
On the surface, she looked at her senpai and juniors with a mischievous smile.
Maybe I heard wrong? In my body there is only my magic and the Magic King element I recently acquired. Maybe this is a side effect of the latter?
Lieselote nodded in her heart, it must be.
Just ignore the voice.
"Ugh! Yui, Arin. I'm fine."
"Husband, you're coughing up blood."
"It's the tomato sauce I ate this morning."
"Oh."
"Yui's glad you're okay, Onii-san!"
Yui hugged Arata's arm, and Arin nodded without changing her expression.
Arata's lips twitched, he was clearly not okay.
The blonde beauty kicked his stomach very hard with her beautiful legs.
In addition to coughing up blood, he almost vomited up everything he ate this morning. Even so, in front of these beautiful girls, Arata pretended to be strong!
He stood up with Yui and Arin's help and looked at Lieselote with an unserious protagonist smile.
"Not bad, that was a good kick, Selina's sister! Just as good as your legs and stockings..." Arata gave a thumbs up and asked, "By the way, what do you want from me?"
"Ahaha! Of course it's your magic, Magic King Candidate. Your magic contains such delicious Magic King elements, I want to absorb them all."
Lieselote ignored the lewd comment about her legs and said what she wanted with a laugh.
Hearing this.
Not only Arata, the other girls who were ready to fight were also surprised.
"Enough with the jokes, Liese Sherlock. Put aside that crazy thing you said about absorbing this pervert's Magic King element because it's impossible unless you want to die. Are you the one who created-"
"The pervert? Who is that?" Arata asked.
Mira frowned, she was not happy that the boy was interrupting her and glaring at him.
"Husband, you don't know? I'm sure it's you."
"Hmm.. really?"
"Arata Kasuga, shut up!" Mira shouted.
"...."
The boy in question finally shut up. No, now he started whispering to each other with Yui and Arin.
As a witch, Mira's hearing was sharper than normal people. She heard the boy say "What's wrong with her? Could she be in love with me?", "Husband, you're narcissistic.", "Fufufu~ As expected from Onii-san!"
Mira's expression darkened, she wanted to attack Arata's head with her magic. Fortunately Akio put her hand on her shoulder which made her patient.
She sighed and looked at Lieselote standing with her hands on her waist.
That sexy posture that did not take them seriously annoyed Mira.
"Liese Sherlock. I wanted to ask if last night's breakdown phenomenon had anything to do with you?"
"Yep, it was me." Lieselote easily admitted it.
"Huh how? That breakdown phenomenon contained the Magic King Element. No way, the reason why you didn't return for a year is..."
From her expression, Mira seemed to have a guess.
Lieselote grinned, her smile as charming as a succubus.
"That's easy. Didn't I say I wanted to absorb that boy's Magic King element and the magic of all of you? There's no way I don't have the preparation."
"To do so, I need power and it just so happens that the Eternal Library stores it. I've been absorbing it carefully for a year..."
When she said that, black wings made of black particles appeared on her back and fluctuations as strong as the breakdown phenomenon spread throughout the battlefield.
Instead of a Succubus, Lieselote now looked like a fallen angel.
The appearance of the wings was familiar to the Trinity Seven members because before this, they had seen something similar on Arata who lost control of his Magic King Element in his body.
Except for Arata who was only surprised, the Trinity Seven girls had horrified expressions.
"You, you took the Magic King Element in this place?! Liese Sherlock, you have done something forbidden for a mage! You impurities. As the leader of Grimoire Security, I must remove you." Mira said coldly and the orb in her hand that emitted powerful magic fluctuations.
However, compared to the magic emitted by Lieselote who was now revealing her Magic King Element...
There was a huge gap and Lieselote was clearly superior.
"Senpai, you're fierce as always~ You may try it if you have the ability to defeat me who has successfully absorbed the Magic King Element in the Eternal Library."
Lieselote said with a black magic circle containing many numbers "11011" enveloping her body.
She licked her lips and stared at everyone, especially Arata with the gaze of a predator staring at its prey.
Arata was happy to be stared at aggressively by a girl as beautiful as Lieselote. But knowing the other party's bad intentions, he was also wary and prepared for battle.
"Selina would be sad if she found out big sister became an evil mage. Giving you a few kicks might set you on the right path? Liese."
"Using underhanded means to become a Magic King Candidate like this is worthy of a 'Sloth'. I'll let you feel it with my ninja sword."
Akio and Levi activated their respective magic, they connected to the "Gula" and "Invidia" archives.
Yui and Arin also connected to "Aviritia" and "Ira".
Mira had connected to her archive, Superbia earlier.
"Looks like I have to start getting serious too..." Arata raised his Gremoir, Sora.
{Beat that girl, my Master!}
"O! Connecting to Superbia's archives."
"Execute my theme!"
"Realization!"
{Execute Macro!}
Arata was enveloped in light and instantly his clothes changed into Magus robes and he held a magic gun similar to the one Lilith had.
Before Lilith left for her mission.
She had copied Lilith's alchemist magic with her Astil Manuscript ability.
Unlike Lieselote who was able to steal magic, Arata was able to copy other people's magic.
Both of them have the special ability of cheating.
But—
[This is somewhat different from the original work. Lieselote did not bother to invite Arata to join her in becoming an evil mage. Perhaps because Lilith and Selina weren't there? Ah... It must be because the girl doesn't know how good Selina and the protagonist's relationship is.]
[Well whatever. Isn't it time for an extremely handsome boy to appear on the battlefield with an invincible posture?]
[I'm a humble person and don't like to show off, but in this situation...]
Arata and the members of Trinity Seven were ready to attack at any moment.
But Lieselote suddenly froze which left them confused.
"Oi Liese, what's wrong with you?" Just as Akio asked.
!!!
They all felt magic fluctuations that were even more terrifying than the Magic King Element that Lieselote was emitting.
The other dimensions in the Eternal Library shook.
The orb in Mira's hand that had the ability to reflect magic instantly broke as it had exceeded its limit which made the girl's face pale.
Everyone felt the oppression of magic that suppressed all their magic.
Horrible...!
You see, they were all mages who had mastered their respective archives and held the title of Trinity Seven.
Except Arata of course, but that boy also had the Magic King Element in his body. Although he couldn't control it completely yet, right now his magic power was being suppressed like crazy until Sora shouted frantically.
This magic power...
This is so arrogant!
Who is it? Another Magic King candidate? Paladin? No way, what is a True Demon Lord?!
At the moment when everyone was thinking frantically. The sound of several footsteps was heard along with the voices of a boy and a girl.
"Heh, why did everyone suddenly stop? Strange, I haven't said anything yet... It's true that I wanted to stop the fight, but these people are too smart, right? They immediately understood just from hearing my footsteps."
Hearing what Eiji said.
Pfft!
The members of Trinity Seven and the protagonist Arata who had almost fought earlier had a mental attack.
They almost vomited blood.
What did this guy say?
Suddenly came and mocked them?
"Eiji! Obviously it's because of your excessive magic power. Geez... Don't make fun of people, okay? That's not a good thing."
Lilith who walked after Eiji reprimanded the boy. There was surprise on her beautiful face because she just found out Eiji had that much magic power. This made her even more optimistic about Eiji, he might be able to save this world.
The sacrifices she made with her body before were not in vain!
She walked so close to the boy like a little wife following her husband without noticing Arata's expression who saw the scene.
Selina also followed Eiji, although she didn't say anything, she was also surprised by Eiji's magic power. But more than that, she was looking at her older sister with a complicated gaze.
Of course, she had heard their conversation from earlier and knew the reason Lieselote had never returned for a year.
It wasn't that she couldn't, she just didn't want to because she was busy pursuing power in the Eternal Library.
"Is that my girlfriend's request? Well, I'll work on it." Eiji said.
Lilith blushed and stammered. "What, what are you saying?! Who is your girlfriend? I..."
