83. A New Beginning

The following is an unedited chapter so I request you not read this!

...

"Fuck!!!!" Chiffon, an average girl who wanted nothing but peace in her life was assaulted in her early days as an adventurer.

To take revenge on that person she joined a mercenary group and after a few years of training, she found the said man and killed him in the most gruesome way possible.

She was a sadist after all.

Because of her extravagant strength, she was hired by the Black Lotus mercenary group and was supposed to get a promotion by the end of this year.

But currently, a strong-willed female such as herself was not confident in winning against the person in front of her.

"<Dance of the darkness>!" When she heard those words her face turned paler.

All this time she could only wish that she hadn't taken over this job!

Just because the person she accompanied was a high-ranking Demon hunter she thought that her escort would be easy, but she was wrong, absolutely wrong.

Three slashes of a sword with black miasma surrounding it were thrown at her.

Chiffon was not alone,

"Goblins!" She shouted and a green magic circle appeared underneath her feet.

Just before the slashes could touch her the sound of three blasts resounded in the forest.

"Cough! Cough! This bastard!" Chiffon shouted at the top of her lungs as she ran backward.

'If only I hadn't chased that fucking demon!' She cursed inwardly while holding her left hand which was bleeding.

She remembered the events that happened when they arrived near Sleva Village and a lowly demon threw something on their carriage.

...

[Sometime before Chiffon's current condition.]

As Robert was their employer Black Lotus was obliged to safeguard him at all costs.

The thing thrown at their carriage was a mana bomb and if not for the heavy defense magic scroll used on the carriage, they might've died without even realizing it.

Agatha, a tall woman and Chiffon's partner got out of the carriage and attacked the demon, but to their surprise, all they saw was her flying head that hit the carriage and a fountain of blood that poured out of Agatha's headless body.

In a fit of rage, Chiffon, who saw her best friend's headless body dashed out of the carriage without her leader's permission, a rookie mistake even though she was a veteran.

The Black Lotus was a group of seven women;

Sara, the team leader with tanned skin.

Rina, the vice-leader of the black lotus and a woman short in height and with long black hair.

Charmina was a woman with long silky brown hair and seductive breasts.

Along with Agatha, a tall woman; Chiffon, an average woman; Donna, a green-haired woman, and Julie, a loli.

This was the combination of black Lotus.

All of them had spent at least a few years together and since they never lost in any battle, watching their comrade die in such a miserable state made their blood boil.

Little did they know that it was just the beginning.

The demon that threw a bomb at their carriage was none other than Logan himself.

He chased their carriage for a long time after he spot them entering. Just after the carriage reached the designated point he distracted them. All that was required was to get out of the carriage and let [Mirage] work.

(A/N: Artifact: [Mirage]: refer to chapter no. 52)

He had changed his appearance into a lower demon and threw a mana bomb at their running carriage, and he was the one who beheaded Agatha in one fluid motion.

When everyone saw their comrade die so easily all of them were shocked and they all got out of the carriage while one of them immediately chased after him.

With that being said, everyone except for Robert got out of the carriage.

Boom!

He took out a few mana bombs that were chained to each other and threw them at the black lotus.

Rina, the vice-leader of the group immediately used her barrier magic and stopped the first blast.

However,

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The bombs kept on blasting which enraged the group.

Rina's entire mana was sucked as if she was standing in front of a black hole.

"Fuck!" Rina lost her control.

The bombs were taking a toll on Rina's body so she immediately channeled her mana into the four scrolls in her hand and again threw them on the ground.

"What the fuck was that?" Sara was enraged as well.

How did a demon come near her carriage without her realizing it? She was shocked.

Suddenly, a few demons with a similar appearance to the previous one appeared with the same mana bomb chains in their hands.

"Watch out!!" Sara shouted and took out a few more scrolls and this time attacked the demons before they could throw the bombs.

Boom! Boom! Boo-

The blasts continued and the enraged Black Lotus group killed the demons that appeared in front of them without any hesitation.

"Fuckers!!" They relentlessly shoved their swords and spears inside the demons' hearts.

"Sara! I will follow that fucking demon running over there!" Sara was confused as she heard Rina's statement. Rina wasn't asking but stating and this caught Sara off-guard.

"Me too!"

"I will also!"

"Rina!" Sara called out their names but it was too late.

Rina, Donna, and Charmina had already left.

...

[Logan's POV]

"Haa... success." I sighed as I took at the leader of the Black Lotus running behind her comrades while being under the illusion of the [Mirage].

"You didn't expect me to get under such a weak illusion now, did you?" I looked at the carriage with serious eyes and it was at this moment that my eyes met with a man clad in a black suit.

Crac- crack!

As he got out of the carriage, he stomped on the artifact [Mirage]; the sound of glass breaking was the only thing I heard as no one was there except for me and the demon hunter.

"That group was quite annoying, but not as annoying as you are... Demon. You keep running away, which is not something of my liking." The demon hunter continued walking toward me.

I wasn't a fool either, hence using one of my trump cards, [Eye of Incubus], I first assessed my opponent.

'Fuck...' That was all I could think of before a heavy pressure like a mountain fell on my shoulders.

...

[Chiffon Vs Black Knight.]

Chiffon, who was under the effect of [Mirage] ran in the direction of Anna's group.

She was chasing the demon in front of her and as if he was an eel, he always slipped from her clutches.

"You bastard!" She shot up in the air with bloodshot eyes as she channeled her mana inside her staff.

With a swift moment of her staff, a circle appeared underneath the running demon.

"Freeze!" she shouted.

But to her surprise, the demon that was running suddenly disappeared into the thin air before he was hit by Chiffon's spell.

"Eh?" As if realizing something, Chiffon looked around and found herself in a place different than what she was following up until now. It was also at this moment that the effect range of [Mirage] was lost.

"As expected of the master, his calculations are always perfect." Chiffon heard a silky and seductive voice that praised someone.

"Indeed." A rather young voice followed the mature voice.

"..." The third person that appeared didn't speak anything but nodded while unsheathing the sword on his back.

"Shit..." Chiffon scoffed.

She could sense three powerful auras from the three in front of her.

"Where is that demon from before?" Just like one could expect, she asked a rather clichéd question.

"..." As if not wanting to waste words on such an unnecessary shit, Blood Knight stepped forward and pounced at Chiffon.

"Hell Flare!" Chiffon wasn't an idiot either. Rather she liked that her enemy also preferred to speak with fists rather than words.

"<Nullify>" To her utter disbelief, when the demon in front of her that had a bulky figure and red eyes, said those words, her magic circle got a darker shade and suddenly faded.

"W-what?!" She was dumbfounded.

"<Corruption strike>" After nullifying her magic, the blood knight did not stop and continued his assault by slashing his sword vertically.

"Blizzard Wolf!" Chiffon could not risk her life, so she took out her first trump card.

"Awooo!" In that split second a wolf got out of the magic circle she had initiated while howling.

Clank!

"Tch." Ignoring the outcome of the battle Anna looked at the upcoming danger.

"There comes the others... Say, Anna, do you want to bet something?" Lara said and glanced at Anna.

"The person with the most kills will get master's precious for a month and the loser will become the servant of the winner." Anna didn't even look at Lara.

"Very well," Lara said as she channeled her demonic energy in her palms.

"<Darkness Descends>" Blood Knight put his arm above his head and shouted.

"Fuck..." Chiffon could feel death looming above her head.

The wolf she had summoned earlier was killed in an instant by the Blood knight, who was too strong for her to handle alone.

His relentless attack had made her use many defensive skills and spells. She could feel that she never had the advantage, to begin with.

Boom!

It was her third summon.

"Grrr..." A Wolf, bigger and tougher than earlier was summoned by her.

No matter what she summoned the Blood Knight sliced it as if it was a piece of cake.

"<Dance of the darkness!>" The Blood Knight shouted and immediately three slashes of black miasma were sent toward her.

...

Boom!

The battle continued and blood spilled, but the first blood spilled was from the enemy side.
