Marco came out from the castle, and saw that the enemy was already gone, after checking that everything was safe, he sheathed the katana and called.
Marco: Diane!!
And some seconds later, Diane appeared with a cry.
Diane: Kweh!
And then she landed.
Marco: Good, obey to my orders when I am in the deep shit, won't you?
Marco's eyebrow twitched but he still got on her back.
Marco: Take me to Remina, we will go get your mama back.
Diane: Kweh!
As soon as he got on her back, she took off. In a few minutes, they already reached Remina without any ambush of a flying monster, probably from the sudden appearance of the new monsters and angels, and Marco started to look down, for any strange movement.
Marco: 'Where's that bitch… Here!'
Marco found Black Alice walking around, Marco and Black Alice's eyes met even though they were around half kilometer away, and she started laughing.
She stood next to a wall beside some ruins, and right at her feet there was a hatch.
When Black Alice giggled again, the hatch popped open.
Marco nodded in confirmation, the underground base was down there, when he blinked, Black Alice was already gone.
Marco: Let me down, Diane.
Diane: Kweh!
Then she landed next to the hatch, and Marco got down from her back, he picked up the gun from his bag and put the other hand on his sword.
Marco: You can go, but be nearby because soon I will call you again, alright?
Diane: Kweh!
Then she flew away, leaving Marco alone, he looked back at the hatch and took a deep breath.
Marco: 'C'mon Marco, once you get back Alice, you can think for a method to destroy the collar, and then we can start this shit again…'
Basically without the Nine Tailed System, he is a simple armed human, no matter how people see it, and yes, I am looking at you, reader, don't expect magical shit, this is a human being, not a generic dense main character, there won't be a miracle, it will be done with a logical solution. Then he started to climb down the hatch warily.
When he finally reached the place, he turned around and was stunned, this place looked more like a spatial ship of Alien: Isolation…
Marco: I swear that if I find any Xenomorph I will fucking kill him…
*Ding*
*Special Quest: Kill a Xenomorph if you find one.*
Marco ignored the quest and silently walked, at least he still know the Angelic Skills…
He looked around, finding some cameras, and walked on their blind spots, avoiding to trigger any alarm.
Soon, he reached a long hall with some water tanks at his side, he looked at them, finding many Chimeras.
Marco: Fuck no, I'm not letting these shits there…
Marco used his sharp katana to pierce each water tank and piercing the Chimeras' heads, then they exploded in blood and gore, leaving simple beasts behind, covered in blood.
*Ding*
*5/???*
*100 pt.*
*1400 pt*
*Ding*
*6/???*
*100 pt.*
*1500 pt*
*Ding*
*7/???*
*100 pt.*
*1600 pt*
Some of them were former angels too. Soon, he reached the last water tank, and stopped there with eyes wide open.
Marco: No…
In front of him was… Paul?!
He was still unconscious, and it had a mechanical body with plastic body fused together… Maybe an angel took his soul and gave it to Promestein.
Marco: 'Maybe… I can ask for his help now…'
Instead of using the sword, Marco aimed the gun to his forehead, and broke the water tank with a bang, killing Paul, for a third time…
After that, he used his sword to cut off the various pieces, before going to the incinerator he saw before and throwing the pieces there, letting it burn.
Marco: Hopefully that cockroach doesn't return again…
*Ding*
*Murphy's Law activated.*
Marco: 'NO! Deactivate it!'
*Ding*
*Murphy's Law deactivated.*
Marco sighed in relief and continued to walk forward, the doors automatically opened and Marco stepped out of the hall, then he looked around, there were some partitions broken and a door smashed open, he followed the traces of destruction.
Then, he heard some footsteps and hid in a corner before a Chimera came, she was completely blind due to a band over her eyes, but Marco didn't made a single sound and calmed down, he removed his boots and threw them at the other side of the room.
When they landed, the Chimera turned to that side and tried to hear anything coming from there, not noticing Marco silently walking behind her.
?: It must be a broken machin-
Marco reached her back and grabbed her head with both of his hands, before twisting it upside down…
*Crack*
?: Gah…
She spit a mouthful of blood from her broken neck, and tried to do something, however it was too late and she died…
*Ding*
*8/???*
*100 pt.*
*1700 pt.*
Marco let her go, her body faded in particles of light, meaning that she was once an angel.
Probably since she was a chimera now, he could touch her body anyway…
Marco continued to walk, taking a boot with himself if he needed it for traps. He continued to follow the traces of destruction.
[Later]
Going deeper, he finally reached a huge door, which looked like the control room from what he could see from the windows, and at the center of the room…
Promestein: ...Oh? You reached here awfully fast. Still, how did you find this laboratory? I didn't think that hatch was so easy to locate.
Marco: Gothic Lolita.
Promestein: I see… So it was Black Alice's doing.
Her eyebrows lifted up in surprise.
Marco: Alright, give me the key to remove this shit in my neck, now.
Promestein: Oh? You don't care about the Monster Lord?
Marco: Shut the fuck up, I already know how it works. *Whistle* Dumb bitch! I am here!
He yelled out, then there stood silence for a moment…
*bam…*
*Bam…*
*Bam*
*BAM…*
*BAM!*
From a closed door, which got flung away, a silhouette came out, and entered the room…
?: Here you are, Promestein! I'll make you undo this seal on me!
Aaaaand… Here is a loli Alice...Strangely, even her clothes were smaller… She was basically at Tamamo's size, and she was cute as fuck…
Marco: Goddammit Alice, did you really get lost? I came here faster than you and I was here for less than 15 minutes…
Alice: Shut up! There were too many rooms!
She glared at Marco, but their conversation got interrupted from Promestein.
Promestein: I see… That could indeed nullify the Six Ancestors' Great Seal if applied quickly enough. But how did you come up with that method so quickly?
Alice: Hmph… That nasty fox taught me quite a lot. Though I never thought I'd seriously have to use that magic…
Promestein: Hmph. You can't bring forth even a tenth of your power in that body. With the Sinner spiritless and unable to use his Nine tailed Chakra Gate, your power is merely a fractio-
*Click*
*Bang*
Marco shot out his 7th bullet, leaving only one, and it completely hit Promestein in her chest, much to her surprise.
Marco: Shit… I aimed for the heart…
Instead, he hit a lung of hers, making Promestein frown.
Promestein: What was that!?
Marco smirked from seeing Promestein angry, even though she could regenerate soon, it was worth…
Marco: Your death…
Marco aimed his gun again to Promestein and shot, however, this time a strange plant came from her clothes and blocked the bullet, even though it managed to destroy the tentacle, Promestein, angry, started to transform.
Her clothes got destroyed and various plants were shown, meanwhile a large halo was over her head.
Promestein: You dare…
Alice: S...Seaweed!?
Promestein: This is an ancient monster, seaweed, an extinct life form close to the origin of all monsters. You plebeians may not understand what it means, but I have revived an extinct life form!
After experimenting on thousands of monsters, I chose this monster seaweed to be a part of my very body!
Marco: 'Tch… I finished the bullets… I can still bluff…'
Marco and Alice prepared themselves for the incoming fight.
