In the dim alleyway, Fang Li and his group rushed in from the busy street.

"There!"

Tohno Shiki immediately pointed to the depth of the alley.

But Fang Li and Arcueid didn't need Tohno Shiki's reminder - they had already seen it.

At the far end of the alley, the staggering figure was just turning a corner, heading into another narrow passage.

"Is it trying to escape?" 

Arcueid did not hesitate and stepped into the alley, chasing after the figure.

Fang Li, however, was in no hurry. He took a moment to look at Tohno Shiki beside him and asked:

"Are you alright?"

Hearing this, Tohno Shiki shook his head indicating that he was okay. But no matter how you looked at it, Tohno Shiki's expression didn't suggest that he was okay.

However, this time, it wasn't because Tohno Shiki overused his **Mystic Eyes** that he ended up like that.

The reason Tohno Shiki looked like that was simply because he had finally understood why using his eyes would surely allow him to distinguish the identity of a Dead Apostle.

It was because the existence he saw was filled with something very familiar to Tohno Shiki.

**-Death.

**-Death.

**-Death.

Death covered the being's entire body.

The graffiti-like lines that spread across the body like veins made Tohno Shiki feel as if his heart was pounding violently just by looking at them, causing a wave of nausea to rise within him.

"Is that a Dead Apostle?" Tohno Shiki's breathing became a bit harder as he asked this.

"Try to get used to it," Fang Li said calmly. "Once you get used to seeing these death lines, you won't react like this anymore."

Tohno Shiki nodded heavily.

If possible, he would definitely prefer not to adapt to such things.

"Alright," Fang Li said. "Let's hurry and catch up."

"Yeah," Tohno Shiki nodded, his agreement coming with a sense of weight.

With that, the two of them followed the direction Arcueid had taken, diving deeper into the narrow alley.

---

The dim alleyway seemed endless and seemed to stretch on forever.

Fang Li and Tohno Shiki moved quickly through it, and after a full ten minutes, they finally emerged from the alley.

What appeared in front of Fang Li was an open space.

Surrounding them were several industrial areas that resembled a construction site.

"This place is..."

Fang Li's eyebrows furrowed as he looked at this scene.

This was a part of the industrial area that Fang Li had reached yesterday while hunting the vampire known as "Serpent".

"Could it be that the vampire has been hiding here all along?" As soon as this thought crossed Fang Li's mind, chaos broke out in front of him.

No, it wasn't chaos.

It was a one-sided battle.

**"AaahAaah--!"

With irrational roars, three Dead Apostles who had somehow gathered at the construction site screamed and charged in a certain direction.

There, Arcueid stood calmly surrounded by the Dead Apostles, her flawlessly charming face showing no hint of tension. Her crimson eyes were fixed on the monsters lunging at her, her slender hands curved into claws.

**"Pū Chī--!"

The first ripping sound echoed as the Dead Apostle, charging directly at Arcueid, had his chest ripped open by her claws that seemed to cut through the air.

**"Pū Chī--!"**

The second ripping sound followed as the Dead Apostle, leaping from above, was split in two by a bloody slash of her claws.

**"Pū Chī--!"**

The third ripping sound was heard as the Dead Apostle attacking from behind had his abdomen pierced by her graceful hand.

The whole process took less than a second.

In less than a second, all three Dead Apostles were disemboweled and shredded into chunks of flesh under the swift movements of Arcueid's delicate hands, leaving their corpses to slump to the ground.

Their deaths were extremely gruesome.

**"Gugh...!"

Watching this gruesome scene unfold before his eyes, Tohno Shiki could no longer contain himself. He doubled over and began to vomit on the spot.

Neither Fang Li nor Arcueid paid any attention to him.

That's because, in the construction site ahead, dark silhouettes moved stealthily like wild beasts. Some seemed to be slipping into the unfinished building, while others were climbing down the metal frame like spiders.

There were eleven figures climbing down.

Seven of them were Dead Apostles.

The other four were wild beasts, their bodies completely painted in inky black, resembling wolves and tigers.

**"Wild beasts?" Fang Li was astonished.

It wasn't just Fang Li who was surprised, even Arcueid was taken aback.

**"Aren't those Nrvnqsr's Familiars?"

That's right.

As far as Fang Li and Arcueid could remember, the only person who could control wild beasts like that was that particular Dead Apostle.

**"Could it be that this guy has even absorbed Nrvnqsr's wild beast essences?"**.

Arcueid was truly shocked as she spoke to herself.

**"But even if he had absorbed the essences of those wild beasts, how could he shape them into such a form without Nrvnqsr's Reality Marble?

Of course, no one could answer this question.

Only the small team of Dead Apostles and wild beasts formed by that man charged towards Arcueid.

**"Whatever."**

Arcueid's expression became serious.

**"Regardless of how it happened, killing you all will solve the problem."

With that, Arcueid bent her body slightly and shot forward like a bullet.

The slaughter commenced once again.

Seeing Arcueid charging into the horde of Dead Apostles and wild beasts by herself, Fang Li's tightly knit eyebrows slowly relaxed. He didn't rush forward but instead turned to Tohno Shiki.

**"Are you alright?"

It was the same question he asked at the beginning of the chase.

But this time, Tohno Shiki didn't shake his head. Instead, he clenched his teeth and tried to calm his breathing.

So Fang Li asked again.

**"What do you say? Are you planning to go over there?"**.

With this simple question, Tohno Shiki found himself deeply hesitating.

The brutal carnage that unfolded before his eyes made Tohno Shiki realize just how abnormal the world he had entered truly was.

And once he entered it, there was no turning back.

Because the enemy didn't even give Tohno Shiki the time to think.

**"Thud..."**.

Accompanied by a soft sound, a wild beast had somehow managed to sneak up behind Tohno Shiki. It jumped from the wall and charged at him.

**"Roar!"

With a roar, the wild beast closed the distance and without the slightest hesitation, aimed its ferocious jaws at Tohno Shiki's head.

**"...?!"**

Startled, Tohno Shiki instinctively raised his hand.

**"Pū Chī!"**.

The sound of fangs sinking into flesh and blood echoed sharply in the area as the beast's sharp teeth bit down hard on Tohno Shiki's arm.

**"----!"**

At that moment, Tohno Shiki's mind went completely blank and pain surged through his brain.

But contrary to the pain, his blood began to boil.

**"Ha..."**.

Tohno Shiki suddenly started to laugh.

**"Haha... Hahaha... Hahaha!"**.

His laughter rang out, filling the air.
