Seeds of Rekindling Part 3

Translator : PolterGlast

[Gosh, what is the meaning of this!]

Mefi cried out in frustration in the underground canals that stretched beneath Arcazam.

The only reason she was in the form of a girl was because it was convenient for her to deceive the humans to whom she had been playing around with. If she was in that form, the lowly and foolish humans would be fooled without any difficulty.

That has been how she has deceived many people so far.

And just the other day, she was about to leave the city after ten years of fun, but she was stranded in an unexpected place.

In front of her was a drainage canal leading out of the city. A small amount of magical power is being emitted at its exit to prevent demonic beasts, but as a supernatural being, she should be able to breach it without any difficulty.

However, for some reason, Mefi repeatedly walked right and left in front of the emitted magical power.

Eventually, she willingly jumped into it, but her body was repelled as if she was being obstructed by an invisible wall.

[It's designed so that only I can't get through. This is definitely that guy's work......]

As if reacting to Mefi's irritation, her compound eyes turned red.

What flashed through her mind was the person who had been Ken's backer so far. He was one of the most powerful people in the city, but at the same time, he was an anomaly whose mind Mefi could not read at all.

He looked down at Mefi, an existence rarely seen by humans, with inorganic eyes, not even seeming surprised when he saw her, and was the first person she thought, [I don't want to be involved with this person].

[What a jerk!]

She exploded her own source elements out of frustration that things were not going the way she wanted them to. The flowing wastewater splashed out and cracks spread across the surrounding walls. The magic circle for releasing the magical power was also cracked, but there was no change in the released magical power.

It seemed that something other than the magic circle on the wall was still functioning.

Then, from the back of the passageway that Mefi had passed through, the sound of someone's footsteps echoed.

The time was already midnight. It was not the time for workers to visit the canal.

Mefi slowly turned around to see who was approaching from behind, and then let out a surprised cry.

[Hee, what a surprise. You're still alive, huh?]

"............"

There stood the toy that Mefi had played with for ten years and then discarded.

His faded blond hair. His uniform was in tatters, and he cast his eyes down, so it was impossible to see the expression on his face.

But Mefi was surprised to see that the toy was still alive, her mouth twisted into a grin as she transformed herself into a little girl.

[Huh? Are you perhaps mad at me? But it's your fault for being weak and stupid, you know? If you think of it normally, there is no way a spirit would lend its power to a mere human, ahahaha!"

Her pretty girlish appearance was distorted hideously and she let out a vulgar laugh.

The reason she went to the trouble of changing back into human form was to thoroughly humiliate Ken.

Combined with the irritation that had been building up earlier, her voice was completely tinged with her hideous true nature.

[But it's just perfect. If I borrow your body, I can slip through this damned barrier.]

Right now, she was blocked by the magical power being released into the canal, and she was unable to leave the city. But if she could get into this toy body, she might be able to use it as a cover to slip through.

[Besides, I was getting irritated. Since you're here, why don't you let me hear you scream to kill time?]

In a bit of mischievousness, Mefi suddenly turned her palm toward Ken and released the source element. She wanted to stimulate Ken's sense of pain and enjoy the sight of him writhing in pain as he was being assimilated.

The released source elements instantly enveloped Ken and increased his sense of pain 10,000-fold.

The pain was so intense that even the strongest of minds would succumb in an instant. The water spirit's eyes lift up in excitement at the thought of the former contractor, whose face would be contorted in anger, wet with tears and snot, and thrashing about on the ground in an ugly manner.

A scrunched-up face. The trembling of her body and the pleas that followed. Ignoring all of them, Ken bit into Mefi's body head first.

*Crunch, crunch, gulp*....... Ken devoured Mefi's body in the blink of an eye, as though he were eating a small grilled fish. At the same time, the black miasma exuding from Ken's body thickened in color.

"Lisa, Nozomu......."

Muttering the names of his two childhood friends, Ken threw himself into the flowing water stream.

His body disappeared into the murky current. All that remained was the sound of the rushing water, echoing through the canal.
