STB: Chapter 26

An army of hundreds of Nalakuvera crawled as they surrounded a different-looking Nalakuvera.

"Hahaha! This is more like it! It looks like that's the queen, the commander unit who gives out orders to its unmanned drones to obey"

"That's their true power, you've really done it now Gardos" Vatler said with a bloodthirsty grin on his face

"Who knew you still have a trump card like this" He muttered before looking at Kojou.

"What will you do, Kojou? Nalakuvera has been adapting more than you can damage it, you just tasted blood making you a newborn vampire, Shall I take care of this for you?" Vatler grinned at Kojou who was gritting his teeth from hopelessness.

"I told you to say out of it!" Kojou rushed towards the army of Nalakuvera who was shooting lasers on him.

As the laser was about to hit him someone deflected the laser in front of him before narrowing his eyes as he couldn't see clearly from the dust around him.

"Stop rushing without a plan Senpai" Yukina emerges from the dust holding Schneewalzer.

"Himeragi?! Where did you come from? It's dangerous here!" Kojou ran towards her as Yukina looked at Kojou unimpressed.

"What?" Kojou tilted his head confused why Yukina looked at her like that.

"Don't treat me like a fragile girl to be protected Senpai, also Minamiya-sensei sent me here from the ship to help out, the 4th progenitor is currently with her" Yukina said while frowning.

"Alex is with her? That's an odd pair up" Kojou said as he tried to imagine.

"Yeah, I can see her scowling every time The 4th progenitor would flirt with her" Yukina said as the dust around them settled around them when suddenly a barrage of lasers aimed towards the both of them causing Yukina to deploy a barrier around them.

The laser won't stop firing causing a crack in Yukina's barrier before the Nalakuvera's who was firing the laser got impaled by a light blue stakes.

Sayaka then landed in front of them holding a dual pistol.

"You guys okay?" Sayaka said as she checked out Yukina first if she got hurt.

"Come on Natsuki-chan, whoa!" Alex dodged the fan that was about to hit him.

"Stop being annoying 4th progenitor! And don't call me chan!" Natsuki said with a huff.

"It's not a big deal, right? I'm just helping you after all after all I'm a very good person" Alex said with a chuckle.

"Good person he says" Natsuki muttered as she continued finding evidence about the black death emperor in Vatler's ship.

"Of course I am" Alex puffed out his chest.

"So what do you think about my offer Natsuki-chan~?" Alex reminded her again about his offer causing her to stop as she furrowed her eyebrows.

"Stop calling me chan! Also, stop giving me hope, I know where my limit is" Natsuki said as she teleported a bunch of evidence from god knows where.

"I'm not giving you hope, I want to try and see if I can do it, just let me examine you" Alex said as he grabbed a folder containing a bunch of the data about Nalakuvera and put it on his storage ring.

"And? What's next after that? You're going to make me your servant? Also, give me that data I need that" she said but Alex just shrugged it off as he already made a copy in his brain and gave her the folder which she inspected before sending it away.

"Servant? Who told you that? I believe partner is the correct term" Alex said as he pushed Natsuki's cheek causing her to slap his hand.

"Also what's wrong with being my subordinate, you'll get tons of benefits like resources, and knowledge, I'll even teach you runes if you can manage to learn them, also you'll be my food, I wonder what your real body blood taste like~" Alex said while licking her lips causing a shiver down her spine as Natsuki glared at Alex who was just grinning.

"Really? That's your real motive 4th progenitor?" Natsuki said while looking at Alex like a piece of trash.

"Hahaha don't look at me like that Natsuki-chan, I just discovered that there's so much going on outside my lab so I'm going to invest in that, and you've managed to gain my interest"

"Also, it's not like I've lied to you, I want you as my partner or subordinate, whatever you think about your position, I'm just interested in you" Alex said while looking at Natsuki's eyes for a bit before the cheeks of Natsuki's began to heat up as she turned around as she huffs.

"Hmph! Let's just wait and see" Natsuki said while walking ahead causing Alex to silently pump his fist while grinning as he followed her.

"Just put that phone on the cockpit of the commander of Nalakuvera and play the sound, it will do its work, well that's what Mogwai said" Sayaka said as she fired a bullet causing the bullet to transform into a stake as it impaled the Nalakuvera.

"Got it right?" Causing them to nod.

"And Kojou, you cover Yukina while I cover you, Go!" Sayaka said as both of them took off towards the commander unit.

"Hey Vlad? You can hear me right?" Sayaka asked her relic eater.

"Here as always mistress" Vlad replied causing Sayaka to nod.

"Can you impale the ones blocking Yukina and Kojou's path?" Sayaka asked.

"Of course mistress, but it's going to drain you after all this is the first time you're using me"

"I'm going to be fine, I'm going to use Intrinsic Magic!" Sayaka placed both the top of the pistols on each other as Vlad began to drain Sayaka's mana causing the pistols to shine red.

"Tepes Rain!" Sayaka pointed each gun on top and the bottom as it began to form magic circles before Sayaka fired a bunch of bullets before the Nalakuvera who was on the way of Yukina and Kojou got impaled by a bunch of light blue colored stakes.

The both of them looked at Sayaka who was on her knee and catching up on her breath as she waved at them saying that she was fine before they ran towards the commander unit.
