NOVEL NEXT Chapter 34: Three-front Combat
After a strangely active introduction, the girls went to the counter to buy tickets. Christel had already asked Reiko for help in booking a subscription in the morning by phone. With a company behind it, it is easy to buy tickets even for VIP rank when the smartphone does not yet exist.
'There are three aliens, four beings with dark energy, and five beings with evil energy... The events in Neon never disappoint, even if they decide to go to the beach or a hot spring, the event will still happen. I don't care about the enemy's strength, Raynare and Maria have the average-high strength plus four Sailor Scouts. But in an amusement park, the density of humans per square meter is high...'
As they passed through the gates of the Sanroi Puroland amusement park, Christel was just finishing detecting the beings approaching with evil intentions. After three months of training in the Sanctuary world, if Christel has not reached level 20, it can be said that she has far surpassed level 10, so her spiritual perception from the cultivation of the Sightless Eye has a range of 300 meters in radius and she has seen the appearance of the approaching enemies in their true form.
In the need to reclaim farmland in the polluted wastelands near Camp Rogue, Christel has been practicing her flora-focused nature magic a lot. For some reason, her affinity for plants is very high, and she has a certain aversion to fungi, which she treats as mortal enemies and eats (the ones that can be eaten) with sinister laughter. People have come to believe that Christel's favorite thing besides meat is mushrooms.
So while they were walking in, talking and playing with laughter, Christel had been sprinkling pollen all over the park. The Druid summoning magic, in the flora branch and creeper class, Christel knew how to use it to control the enemy and also to defend allies. Tang San in god mode couldn't possibly have the battlefield control ability that Christel has after having the time to spread her pollen.
'I'm not a monster, although I don't care much about events that may bring damage at the level of a natural disaster, it doesn't mean that I will sit back and do nothing as if innocent people were dying in a fight in my presence. Besides, it's not like anyone is saying that I was the one who turned the park into a jungle hehe~'
And so, with Lala leading the way to spin on the spinning cups, or ride the roller coaster, the girls spent the half day running and jumping under a yellow sun illuminating the whole world with its light. Afterwards, during a break where they bought crepes and milkshakes at a stand again, they rested on a bench while discussing which game to play next. Until...
"What's wrong? Didn't the weatherman say it was going to be sunny all day!"
The sky began to cloud over, dark clouds began to cover the sun and a light rain began to fall instantly.
"Haa~, I'm getting wet"
"Lala, didn't you take out your rain machine again!?"
"I haven't done anything, right kiddo?"
"Lala-sama hasn't made a mess like usual. But according to my data, it's true that this rain is artificial with Deviluke technology."
"...Peke what do you mean -as always-?"
"EHHH? The white hat spoke? " x3(sailors group)
"Ok, girls , let's go find shelter at the kiosk, if we keep talking here we'll end up soaked"
After the small conversation, the group of nine girls. But, just like Raynare, the others also noticed an abnormality and somehow separated themselves among the crowd who also wanted to hide from the rain.
In the sky, the dark clouds were getting deeper, and what seemed like just a light drizzle, slowly grew and the cold wind started to blow. With Lala still holding hands with Christel, they arrived near the cold drinks stand, but neither Usagi and her group nor Mio, Maria and Raynare were behind Lala and Christel.
"... Hee ? Where did they all go?" Lala asked tilting her head, Peke began to blow warm air to help dissipate the moisture on Lala and Christel's clothes.
"Maybe they got separated by the flow of people, I'll send a message to Usagi and Mio." Christel took out her phone and was typing, but her consciousness was focused on the Spiritual Perception of the surroundings. As the Sailors followed Usagi in one direction, Christel managed to see a blonde girl with long hair and the typical orange Magical Girl uniform and a blue bow fighting with three dark servants while a man dressed in black and with red hair was standing on the Ferris wheel.
'If I recall correctly, it must be - Nephrite (ネフライト)-. According to the timeline, - Jadeite (ジェダイト)- should have been defeated already and although in the anime Nephrite dies before Sailor Jupiter appears, in the manga he is defeated by Sailor Jupiter.'
*bsst, bssst*
[Chris, we're separated by the crowd, but we'll go around to get to the other side, don't move from where you are...]
A message arrived from Usagi, Christel in her Spiritual Perception can see that after putting away the phone, the girls transform into magical warriors to help the sailor girl who pretends to be Sailor Moon.
After Usagi, Ami, Rei and Makoto joined forces, the Dark Servants were practically crushed by beatings of colored lights. The self-proclaimed Heavenly King, annoyed, now seems to want to take matters into his own hands by summoning a -Yoma(妖魔)-, beings created by Queen Beryl and her subordinates, are more powerful than normal Dark Servants.
'It seems like they have everything under control and there's a follower dressed in a black suit, cape and a top hat, a man with short black hair wearing a silver-white mask. I don't know how he got here -Tuxedo Mask (タキシード仮面)- or if he chased Usagi and the girls as a stalker here, but I better help the innocent civilians in that location.'
With a thought, grass began to grow at the location of the Ferris wheel where the magic warriors were fighting against the warriors of the dark realm, the civilians were wrapped in vines and gently pushed out to the periphery, taking out all the humans who could be hurt in the fight. All the girls, as well as Tuxedo Mask and Nephrite felt an enormous vitality emanating from the soil and the plants that were growing crazily.
Feeling the threat deep in his heart, Nephrite chose to flee, ordering the Yoma to launch a kamikaze attack. He turned around to jump off the Ferris wheel, but was attacked by roses that wanted to prevent his retreat.
Sailor Moon and the girls recognized the attack of roses and saw a man dressed in black with a cape and top hat starting a hand-to-hand combat with Nephrite .
Usagi at first got excited when she saw him calling herself Tuxedo Mask but as time went by and her interaction with Christel, her mind now only had room for the image of a blonde girl who is very elegant and polite. It seems that under the interference of the meeting between Luna and Christel, when she was investigating the city of Kuoh when she felt strange energies, it caused her to take Usagi to the city and run into Christel thinking she was a possible Sailor Guardian, causing Usagi's clumsiness to end up giving her first kiss to this little girl.
This whole event changed Luna's habit of being very absent-minded and her accidental encounters with -Mamoru Chiba (地場衛)- decreased to the point of only seeing each other in the school from afar but not running into each other. At this point, although Luna still doesn't know that Mamoru or Tuxedo Mask are Prince Endymion, but she doesn't care, seeing the 4 Sailor Guardians along with Usagi for the first time in a long time is very happy.
But that didn't stop Luna from noticing the energy that she knows very well, it was this same energy that made her mistake Christel and if she was a Sailor. Luna knows that there are many organizations with supernatural powers, as well as high technology. When she gave her supercomputer to Ami, she asked her to help her investigate the world in general, discovering that there are territories of Youkais, Gods, Demons, Angels and other dangerous beings.
As she felt the enormous vitality bursting out of the ground and these plants growing very quickly pushing people away, although she feels like Christel, she also feels a natural energy mixed in, so she can guess that it is someone protecting Christel in the shadows. After the plants here grew and the girls fought against the powerful Yoma, she felt like in another area of the amusement park, another source of energy with nature was sprouting.
'I'm glad he's not an enemy, and he can still help the girls,' Luna thought when she saw that, thanks to the vitality in the land, the Sailor Guardians and Sailor Moon could unleash many attacks without exhausting their strength.
As Luna watched the fight without a care, Christel after casting a combination spell of -Nature: Growth/Summon: Vine-, along with the spells -Summon: Oak Sage; Summon: Wolverine Heart; Summon: Spirit of Spikes, exhausting a third of her mana, focused on the location of Mio, Maria and Raynare in her Spiritual Perception area.
'Four Akumas and the same old purple monster Zolgear, it seems that after so much time he is eager to kidnap Mio and will not let the opportunity pass, but he never thought that a fallen angel near the high power level would also be with the sisters'
In her perception, Christel could see Raynare displaying her black wings and condensing spears of holy light, laughing like a lunatic, as she fought directly against Zolgear while Maria unleashed her seal to transform into an Adult Succubus and fought with magic and attacks from her sharp claws. Mio, for her part, used her Lightning spells and Fire spells to support Maria from a distance.
'Here too everything seems to be going well, but with Raynare unleashed, innocent civilians may be hurt in her fight against Zolgear, so... -Summoning...'
Christel, observing that the trio of Raynare, Mio and Maria began their fights, unleashed the same series of druidic magic, consuming another third of mana.
'Tsss. Girls, separating from me might be a good idea so I don't get involved in your fight, but if you don't come to an agreement and leave me alone...' "Hey, do you want some, big sister?"
At the kiosk, while people huddled with their families and friends to avoid getting wet, Christel's perception felt a powerful energy at a high-low level of strength near her. Although in her Spiritual Perception she can see details, but it is like with the Hyuga clan's eyes activated, so it is better to use your eyes to observe the light, so the colors stand out.
She is an incredibly beautiful and short girl with blonde hair and red eyes. Her hair is long and thick, reaching down to her knees. On top of her head, she has two small triangular clips in silver and black tones similar to cat ears that hold her hair together, with two long ponytails arranged parallel to her head.
She wears tight black gothic lolita style clothing and is 153 centimeters tall and weighs 45 kilograms. In the center of her chest there is a four-pointed star revealing a cleavage and a B cup, making her look very much like Christel in body shape.
'They left me with the easiest enemy and at the same time the most difficult enemy to deal with... - Konjiki no Yami Eve Lunatique -' Christel recognized her instantly, The Golden Darkness Assassin Girl or Yami for her friends (0).
Yami, seeing his target, was preparing to do his job, but he stared for a moment at what his target had in his hand. When it was offered to him, Yami without hesitation reached out and took it, then bit into it and savored the caramel crepe and a sweetness flooded his palate.
"mmm~" Yami began to enjoy the dessert in his hands forgetting about working.
"Christel, who is it? Do you know her?" Lala asked when she saw Christel giving the short girl her food and calling her big sister. To Lala who is 165 centimeters tall, Yami is certainly short at 153 centimeters. But to Christel she is her big sister since she is 13 centimeters taller than her. 'Tsss. I'll grow up, I'm only 11 times taller than her!'
"Umm no, but she's barefoot, maybe she got lost and separated from her parents? Here, have a milkshake..." Christel won't say who she is or how she knows her, so she makes something up based on the circumstances. Giving the blonde assassin girl her milkshake, Christel figured that the way to survive a tiger is by feeding it. If she manages to win over Yami, she'll have someone to fight and practice her combat skills with.
'I think Rito avoided death with a –Taiyaki- but Koneko is not around now so I don't have one at hand. Hmm, between Raynare and Yami who will be stronger?'
