Chapter 162: Lightspeed Demon “Lucy” Part III

“...It makes sense that you feel her power get all weird because that woman is not Lala.”

“What do you mean?” Maysa asked.

“...It’s sort of like, the second personality of Lala has awakened now.”

“Personality? She has two personalities?” The gunner raised her eyebrows in surprise.

“Well, yeah,” he said, still smiling nervously. “I think that maybe Wisana’s instinct triggered Lala’s wild animal instinct, and that’s why it’s awakened up. But the thing is that when this instinct is up, it also turns her personality into a completely different person, too.”

Sander scratched his cheek. And his words made everyone’s eyebrows frown out of confusion. Especially Wisana who even had to stop all his movement completely just to stare cautiously at the enemy who had just transformed.

“It feels like I haven’t seen Lucy for a while.” He said, smiling even more wryly. “This girl is such a sadist, brutally strong, and obsessed with fighting to the core.”

And how is that different from the normal Lala, let me ask!!

The party yelled out in unison. But looking only from the outside, Lucy, who was in control right now, looked nice and kind. She even looked a lot more attractive than Lala, the half-ghost. However, Sander seemed to know what everyone was thinking, so he let out a long sigh.

“Believe me, Lucy is not quite nice. Compared to Lala, this girl’s not friendly at all.” He finished, then shook his head. “...Damn, why did Lucy have to come out in a situation like this?”

“I heard that, master.”

The sweet voice said, with a smile that was sweet just as much. Her amber eyes glanced at the master before she grabbed on her skirt to curtsy with respect.

“It’s such a lovely day, meeting you like this. How long has it been since the last time I saw you again?”

“Many years. ...And to be honest, I was trying to avoid you coming out.”

“Aw... that’s so honest that it makes me hurt, master.”

The golden-haired girl gave him a sweet smile. Her manner was many times softer and nicer than Lala’s. Her big round amber eyes moved back on Wisana again, making the young man pause instantly.

“I already know from when I was in Lala.” Lucy smiled sweetly. “...You’re having a fighting skill test, right? But Lala’s sleeping right now, would you mind if I took over her?”

“No. The test has to be postponed.”

Sander objected right away. He looked like he was about to stop them. However, the NPC curled up the corners of her mouth into a smile. It was a cute smile just like little Tinkerbell’s.

“I think it’s too late to stop now, master.”

Lucy said, making Sander pause.

“This gentleman had triggered me to wake up. And it’s kind of unfair that you want me to go back and sleep inside Lala again.” She looked at Wisana. “...Also, you’re testing this man’s skills, aren’t you? So, let me be the one to take care of this. I guarantee you that I won’t let anything go wrong.”

“No, you can’t. You don’t know how to hold back. If you accidentally kill him, won’t Wisana disappear from here and show up in the hospital in town instead?”

Sander yelled with a voice that sounded different from his usual. The others did not understand how the situation had become like this either. But the only thing they knew for sure was that they did not find this girl, Lucy, scary at all.

“It’s okay, Mister Sander,” Wisana said. “I’m still confused, but anyway, I think that it’ll waste too much time if we wait for Lala to wake up and continue the test. So, er... let Lucy fight me.”

“You see that, master? This gentleman even requested that, and you’re going to turn him down anyway?”

“That’s not the problem.” Sander shook his head. “...You don’t understand, Wisana. Lucy’s different from Lala. This girl doesn’t know anything but fighting. And when she’s in fight mode, she could kill you.”

“Did you get something wrong, master?” Lucy cut him off. “This is not my request. It’s a fact that I wanted to inform you about. Because, no matter what, if I don’t get to fight until I’m satisfied, then I refuse to go back to sleep.”

After her words, the slender figure launched forward at a fast speed. And this time she was coming bare-handed by leaving that metal bat behind!

“Wait, Lucy!” Sander tried to stop her, but it was too late.

The destination she was rushing to was Wisana who had the same, amber-colored eyes as hers.

And Wisana seemed to be prepared for this already. So, he held his hands up, getting ready for the encounter right away.

“You threw away your weapon? What are you thinking?!” The young man shouted loudly.

WHOOSH!

Even though his mouth was shouting, he still managed to swing his leg to kick the other accurately. However, there was just a harsh wind blowing past him... A blink later, he felt a threatening aura coming from behind. And then a breath against the back of his neck and the soft voice made his entire body feel creeped out.

“I’m so glad that I met someone like me,” Lucy said with a change in her tone.

She had managed to teleport behind Wisana. And she had illuminated green particles floating around her, showing that she could use the jumper skill as well.

“Since when?!”

The taller one jumped, barely stepping back in time.

“Since when we first met at the magic warrior office, I could feel your scent, the scent of someone obsessed with fighting.”

Hearing that, Wisana narrowed his eyes at the blonde girl in front of him.

He started believing in Sander’s words more and more. He felt that Lucy was not as nice as Lala. Because it was obvious in her eyes that she literally wanted to kill him.

...The test looked like it got more difficult!

“You really can’t hide your excitement, Lucy.” He said with a smile.

“Of course. It was so long before I could find an opponent of the same type as me. ...So, please make me satisfied after I woke up from this awfully long sleep in here.”

She said, then pointed to her chest. Those gorgeous amber eyes widened, and her smile was brutal in the way that Wisana could swear that it was the smile of a killer.

Jumper!

POOF!

Their fast movement speed made them disappear from the others’ eyesight instantly. Then Lucy appeared again with Wisana appearing behind her.

It seemed like Wisana was faster and more accurate in predicting her movements. That was why he could get himself behind her and placed his hand on her back, aiming to blow that enemy off like usual.

“...Huh?! what’s this?”

Lucy’s body started fading away until she completely disappeared. That made him gasp right now because it was another time that he felt a cold breath against his neck from behind!

“Falling for an illusion like that is counted as inexperienced, you know,” Lucy whispered. “Just now, I heard that you’re so confident about your speed...”

WHOP!!

Not waiting for her to finish, Wisana flicked away instantly. In the blink of an eye, he showed up again at another spot. His amber eyes hurriedly looked for the enemy who he supposed was still standing in the same place. But no, she was not... Right now, Lucy had teleported away again.

Or it could be that...

She was already waiting behind him again... and she probably had been waiting here since he started moving his toes, even.

“It’s not wrong to be confident about your own speed. ...I am confident about mine as well. And I believe that it brings you quite a lot of fun, ...Mister Wisana!”

Fist destruction!!!
