Chereads / Hail the Ant King / Chapter 27 - Temporary Sacrifice

Chapter 27 - Temporary Sacrifice

Kiria slowly walked towards Moka with an enraged face, she backed some steps away before starting running, but Kiria teleported in front of her and grabbed her neck, then he lifted her in the air, making it more difficult for her to free from his grasp.

Kiria: You…! I will use you to get my revenge… When Gabriel will see your dead body I wonder what face he will make, if he wants to kill an important person for me, then I'll do the same…

Moka couldn't breathe, she was trying to free herself from Kiria's hand, but it didn't move of a millimeter, she didn't have much time, a vampire's regeneration may be great, but if she dies then it's all over, and her powers are even weakened with the rosary.

Then it came in her mind, if she could remove the rosary, then her inner self could beat Kiria. So she tried to remove the rosary on her own, surprising Kiria from this stupid act, then he started to laugh.

Kiria: HAHA!! Continue like this! At least it will be more interesting killing you…

Then Kiria raised his left arm, which slowly mutated in a scythe, he was a chimera too, so something like this is really easy to do, Moka panicked and used even more force to remove the rosary.

Inner Moka: What are you trying to do…!? Do you know what will happen to you if you remove the rosary?! You will lose yourself!

Moka: 'It's ok... '

Inner Moka was surprised from her answer, and Moka was using as much strength she could muster to remove the rosary while talking to her inner self.

Moka: 'If Gabriel seen me dead… He will definitely lose his mind… I don't want that, you too seen what happened when the Outcast Ayashi kidnapped me, I don't want to see what will happen if he found me dead. So it's better if one of us survive instead of dying with the other…'

While she was talking, she started to cry and smiling in her heart, and it seems that Inner Moka was weeping from the rosary, making a tear coming out from it.

Inner Moka: ...You… *Sigh* Don't worry, I will take care of him…

At this moment, the collar in which was attached the rosary slowly broke, and Moka's personality started to break, she screamed in pain, but still tried to take it out, then it came out, and a great amount of Youki came out too.

Kiria was getting worried so he just slashed right away, but his hand was stopped from another one, it was Moka herself who stopped it, but her scream didn't stopped, her hair started to turn white, her eyes turned red and had a vertical slitted pupil.

Kiria's arm which held the scythe broke from the strength that Moka was using now, making him winch in pain, so he released his old over her and used his other hand to make a scythe.

But before he could attack, Moka stopped screaming and has a pissed off face, then she threw a kick in his face, making him fly away and crash in a tree, falling unconscious.

Moka slowly walked towards Kiria's unconscious form, and crushed his head with her foot repeatedly, killing him, she couldn't let someone like him near Gabriel, even if he may be still safe.

Then she sighed and turned before walking away, this was her first kill, she didn't liked the idea of randomly kill people even if she continued to threat the people that she met before she was sealed.

She was walking towards the rosary that fell in the ground and picked it up before shoving it in her pocket and leaving.

[Later]

Gabriel was at the Headmaster's office, and was talking with him.

Gabriel: ...Then I killed the mole.

Headmaster: Hokuto Kaneshiro… Well, I didn't expected it…

Gabriel: How did you not even know it?! You fucking seen me and Moka sleeping together, and you didn't knew who was the mole?!

Meruem: Sleeping together? Is it really that bad?

Gabriel: 'You shut up!'

Meruem: You dare to give an order to me?

Gabriel: 'No one cares about your status, you are dead and inside me, I am as strong as you, I don't need to follow your orders like your servants'

Headmaster: Well… I was a bit busy, that moment was just a coincidence…

Gabriel stood in silence before he walked away with a blank face.

Gabriel: ...Fuck this shit…

Then he left the room, leaving the Headmaster alone in his office.

Later, he met with his friends.

Tsukune: What were you doing before?

Gabriel: Some important things, now everything in solved, do you guys know where is Moka?

Kurumu and Yukari just shook their heads, Gabriel turned towards a tree and seen Mizore that was stalking over him since he left the floor where the Headmaster's office was, she shook her head too.

Gabriel: 'Don't tell me…' She's kidnapped again…?

Everyone shrugged, and then Gabriel received a call from Moka, which made him a bit worried, he picked it up and asked.

Gabriel: Hey Moka, where are you?

Moka: 'I'm returning at the academy, I should be there in 30 minutes…'

Gabriel: ...Inner…?

Gabriel was able to recognize the voice as Inner Moka, and this surprised him a great deal, he knew about the limitations of the rosary, she herself couldn't remove it.

Moka: 'Yes, it's me, the other Moka was kidnapped again from a guy who was working with the one you killed today, and she broke the rosary to free me… But there's a downside.'

Gabriel gulped, worried about her sudden sad tone, and listened.

Moka: 'Until the rosary will be repaired, she will not appear anymore…'

Gabriel: Wait what?!

Kurumu: What happened?

Tsukune, Yukari and Mizore were curious too, from Gabriel's face, they could see that he was shocked, but they didn't knew why.

Moka: 'I warned her, but the guy who kidnapped us was angry that you killed his companion and tried to strangle us to death, she freed me and I killed him…'

Gabriel was pissed off when he heard what the kidnapper wanted to do, and unconsciously brought out his nen, but when he heard the last part, he sighed in relief.

He knew that there was a solution about the rosary, but he only knew the part where Tsukune got the second rosary from Issa, Moka's father, but he couldn't do the same too for 3 reasons.

The first of all, he can't just go there and ask about it without giving a good explanation about where he found it.

The second is that Issa would probably challenge him, and he didn't want to gravely hurt Moka's father.

And the third and most important reason, he didn't knew if the information was true here. He knew that these events should be put in the anime, but if they didn't made it, then it means that the story in the anime is different from the manga, which he lived in.

The only thing that he knew is that he could trust the second season of the anime only at the second year, where Kokoa would be present.
