Chapter 57

"Huh?" Yuno pushes the door but it does not budge. "Strange? It doesn't move."

Hearing that, Yui suddenly has a bad feeling. "What? But there's no lock on it. Push harder, Yuno!"

"I am! Hnnnnng! Hnnnnnnnnnnnngh!" Doesn't work! What the heck?!" Yuno presses all of her body weight forward, yet the door is incredibly stubborn. "It feels like this thing is welded to the place."

Instantly, Yui yells on the phone.

"Lily! She's on it! We can't open the door!"

"I got it. I have been waiting for her outside all this time." She replies. "There is no way for her to bypass me."

"Yuno, let's break the door down!" Yui turns back to her sister.

"Okay!"

The twins grab each other by the hand, and the wind starts to swirl around them right after that.

Wind Magic: Wind Blade.

Yui and Yuno raise their arms and slash down.

*Bang bang*

An X forms on the surface of the door alongside some sparks of light. The wooden material bursts open, revealing the glowing metal inside. Although the wood has been destroyed, the metal surface underneath has scratches only.

And through the cracks of the wood, runes can be seen on the face of the metal.

"Damn it! This is not normal metal! That glowing aura! Damn you Nycta! This was Manafused!" Yui yells.

Yuno looks serious. "Let Yuno try something!"

An orb of fire the size of a basketball manifests on Yuno's hand.

Sam's Fire Creation Magic: Fire Bomb.

Sensing the heat emitting from the Fire Bomb, Yui shakes her head.

"That's too big! It's going to hurt us both before breaking that door down. Our room is too small for such a large spell!"

Yuno dispels the magic. "Then what can we do?!" Her voice is a little panicked.

Yui looks around frantically. "Hit the walls with our Wind spells. If we can't open that metal, it's better just break down the walls!"

"Let's hurry! That woman is getting closer! I can hear her voice now!" Yuno raises her hand and slashes down at the wall between them and Sam.

*Bang*

The wall opens with a glowing metal behind it.

"Fuck!! How did she manage to afford these?!" Yuno curses.

*Bang bang bang bang*

All over the room, big cracks appear because of Yuno's magic. However, there are metal plates behind all of them.

"Yuno! Calm down! We can still try one last thing!"

"But it'll take ages! She...will be done by the time we get these things down!"

"Better late than never!" Yui holds her sister's hand tightly and puts the other on the door.

"Damn it! I hate her!!!" Yuno does the same thing.

Their hair starts to stand up, as well as their clothes. Around the room, dust, and debris formed by Yuno's spell begin to fly around them like a miniature tornado.

Wind Magic: Resonance.

A shock wave spreads out from the two, and the door shakes very slightly.

"Goddess! Hurry up! This will be even longer than we expect!" Yuno curses again.

"Concentrate! We need to find the destruction frequency of this thing!"

Any material, be it hard, or liquid, has its own special frequency of demolition. Just like glass when singing in a particular way, sending sound waves to find that special frequency theoretically can break anything in the world.

There is a huge drawback with this spell, that is it depends on the materials. It can take minutes, even hours, days to find the right resonance. Because of that, this spell does not work well on the battlefield.

While Yui and Yuno are desperately trying to wear the door down, on the outside, Lily is already having a visual on Nycta.

Even with the dimly light from the moon shining down from above, Lily can still see the beauty of her love rival.

Usually, she would keep the twin tails, as it has been the hairdo ever since she was young. But tonight, Nycta puts her hair down rather than having them tied up. Her hair is not long, only down by the level of her shoulder, yet the bathrobe is designed to have her neck and clavicle open.

The part where her graceful black hair touches her body is also the place where the skin is shown. It is both feminine and charming at the same time.

Furthermore, on her face currently is a hint of blushing, combined with the makeup she used prior, she is the most beautiful anyone has ever seen.

"I must be honest, Nycta, you are the most gorgeous person I have ever seen. Not even one of." Lily sighs deeply. She does not want to compliment her rival, yet she can not stop herself from doing that.

Nycta is just out of this world.

"Thanks, would you mind standing out of the staircase? You are blocking my way." Nycta makes a smile as she walks up the stairs.

Lily stares at her. In the azure eyes, a vortex starts to appear. "Go back to your room. Now."

Still keeping the same gentle smile, Nycta keeps moving up.

"Please, Lily, let me have this. If you do, I will forever be under you. Any command you make, I will obey. Of course, Sam's requests will always be more important, though!"

"No. Go back down. Sam will not see you tonight."

Lily starts conjuring her spells. Around her, orbs of light start to appear.

Light Magic: Laser Beams.

"Go up further, and I will make you regret it!" Lily grunts her voice.

"You will not kill me. I know at least that." Nycta closes the distance steadily.

Lily nods, and the orbs fade into thin air. "Yes, I won't. I am always afraid of Sam being sad if one of you girls goes missing."

Nycta smiles even more stunningly. "Then I can continue? I promise you will have the second chance."

"No. If one of us dies, Sam will be sad." Lily says.

The distance between Nycta and her is only one-third of the stairs. "Thank you for your understanding."

"But if a blind girl falls down the stairs, he will only worry for a few days. After all, you are blind, having some bruises here and there is a normal thing." Lily's body is then enveloped by a yellow light.

Light magic: Physical Enhancement.

And it vanishes.

Light magic: Invisible.

"I knew that you would not give it up that easily, Lily." From the body of Nycta, a black sphere spreads out and covers the whole staircase. "Let's see if you can fight a blind girl without your vision."

Very quickly, the whole area is completely void of light.

Void magic: Darkness.

"Nycta, give it up. I will not let you in his room. If he wants to sleep with you, I will not stop. But if he is not asking for it, then stay at your place!" Lily shouts. The absence of light makes her uncomfortable.

Her body glows, illuminating the darkness. Still, she can not see further than her hand.

"You should not have used Invisible, Lily. I can't see, anyway." There is a voice behind her.

*Whoosh*

She rapidly turns around, punching straight forward.

"Keough! Ack!"

Her arm hits the chest of something with a thud. Upon impact, a person coughs. However, the voice is not Nycta's.

The person in front grasp her hand and pull her body close. At that point, she can see who that person really is.

It is the maid. The punch of Lily has made her mouth cough with some blood. But Nycta is nowhere to be found.

And then, from the hand of the maid, a black mist forms and travels inside her body. Soon, the black color reaches her eyes, making them all black, while Lily loses all control of her limbs and voice.

Void magic: Mind Control.

Seeing Lily being affected, the dark sphere shrinks down and goes back inside of Nycta, who is now standing next to Lily.

"I can not afford to waste any more time. The twins are good, they are probably trying to break open the door as we speak." Nycta exhales.

"If the maid is dead, we will just capture another one. Lily, please stay here for a while."

Lily stares at Nycta. Her whole body is now completely under the spell of her rival, she can not even say anything but to stand there and watch.

She feels...weak. She does not blame Nycta, because she would do the same if she could.

Lily blames herself for being powerless. Because of that weakness of her, Sam will probably lose to the temptation of Nycta.

After all, Sam is still a young man. Lily knows how many times a week Sam pleasures himself, and that number has increased after the meals they gave him.

How can he possibly fight a beautiful woman who will give him everything?

"Thank you, Lily." Nycta walks towards Sam's room. On the way, she can hear the door of Yui and Yuno moves with a special frequency. But she pays them no mind.

Her heart beats faster and faster. She can hear the drum-like sounds in her ears. As she gets closer, Nycta's face feels hot. The slight blush at the beginning has turned into a deep red color, making her already perfect face even more attractive.

This is what she has been waiting for. This is what anyone of them has been waiting for.

There it is, there is his entrance.

She just needs to open it and walk in.

No room for escape, no room for hesitation.

*Ba-dump ba-dump*

Nycta touches the door, it glows and receives her fingerprints like with her own room.
