Eucliwood Hellscythe. Her powers were extraordinarily potent. Her blood contained magic that granted eternal youth.
The Vampire Ninjas were a race born from the acquisition of her blood. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Eu was the origin of all Vampire Ninjas. She even possessed the power to grant immortality.
In many ways, Eu was an extremely terrifying existence.
It was precisely because of this that the Vampire Ninjas revered her greatly.
Seraphim hesitated for a moment before asking:
"Lady Eucliwood... are you staying here?"
Everyone turned their eyes toward Eu.
She calmly shook her head.
"No. I'm going to live with a friend."
The friend she mentioned was Miori Shiba. Miori had her own villa, and it was close to Takumi's place. It would be convenient to visit either side.
Hearing that, Seraphim looked a bit disappointed but nodded anyway.
"Understood."
Since Lady Eu already had plans, there was nothing more to say.
Eu nodded slightly.
Then Sarasvati spoke up.
"Seraphim, go assist Lady Eucliwood. A noble such as her needs a maid at her side."
She had decided for her.
Seraphim's eyes lit up. She had no objection to this at all.
But both Eu and Takumi wore odd expressions.
This woman? As Eu's maid?
"That's not necessary!" "I don't need anyone to serve me!"
Eu promptly rejected the offer.
She really didn't need anyone fussing over her. She was fine on her own. Let Seraphim do something else.
But Sarasvati wouldn't back down.
"No. It must be someone by your side."
Faced with that determination, Eu gave up.
"Fine... she can come."
She shot a glance at Takumi. What was the point of sticking Seraphim to her side?
She sighed, and eventually accepted it. She couldn't really resist anyway.
With that settled, Takumi was ready to leave.
"Alright then, we'll head out first." "You all go ahead and move in. Tomorrow, I'll send over robots to help with ID registration and get you phones and such."
With that, Takumi opened a spatial portal and stepped through.
Eu followed with Seraphim in tow.
Sarasvati withdrew her gaze and looked at the newly established village.
After a moment of thought, she commanded:
"Everyone, choose your homes and settle in! Dismissed!"
She vanished on the spot, heading for the house she had her eye on.
The rest of the Vampire Ninjas began scrambling to pick out homes.
First come, first served!
From now on, this would be their home.
Tomorrow, they could worry about training grounds and school. After all, some of them were still high school students.
...
Meanwhile, Takumi had brought Eu to the front door of Miori Shiba's villa.
He snapped his fingers.
Inside, Miori jolted awake from a nightmare.
"Dameeee!!!"
She shot up from bed, gasping.
Then came Takumi's voice in her ears:
"Since you're awake, come open the door. Eu is here."
Hearing that, Miori's rage exploded.
That nightmare HAD to be his doing.
Infuriated, she rushed downstairs and threw open the door.
"You bastard!! Don't just go invading someone's dreams like that!!"
She glared at the three standing at her door, especially the smiling one.
"Don't sweat the details. Eu's yours now. Vehlier has been merged into this world. Inform the Holy Saintess tomorrow. You don't need to manage their affairs—they have their own queen. Just focus on your responsibilities here."
With a yawn, Takumi vanished on the spot.
He had no intention of letting anyone meddle in Vehlier's world.
Two civilizations—one magical, one technological—would gradually come to understand each other.
There was already order there. Takumi would slowly adjust things over time.
It wasn't something that could change overnight.
Miori watched Takumi vanish, grinding her molars.
"Sorry to trouble you."
Eu spoke gently.
She felt a little bad for showing up so late.
Miori took a deep breath and shifted her expression.
"No problem. Blame that awful guy. Seraphim, right? Come in too. Just treat this as your home from now on."
She pulled Eu inside.
Eu had always gotten along with the other girls in the chat group.
When they found out Eu was immigrating here, Miori had DM'd her.
She thought it'd be nice to live together since they were group members.
That's how it came to be that Eu would move in with Miori.
Takumi didn't know the details.
If Eu said she wanted to live with Miori, then so be it.
No problem at all.
Whatever personal bonds they had didn't matter.
They were all residents of Takumi's world now.
At that moment, Takumi had already returned to his home.
After washing up, he had a sudden thought—he decided to visit Lilia.
Lilia was sitting on her bed, dazed.
She had noticed the drastic change in the environment outside.
Even more startling, she sensed her internal magical energy transforming.
It was becoming something far more terrifying.
And her power wasn't weakening.
It was getting stronger.
She had already informed the upper management of Vehlier about this.
Now they were busy explaining the changes to the rest of the populace.
Lilia let out a sigh.
She wasn't sure if this was good or bad.
Just then—
"I knew you weren't asleep yet~!"
That familiar voice.
Lilia immediately sat up.
"How could I possibly sleep at a time like this!!"
Seriously?! We just got shifted into another world—who could sleep through that?!
And her powers were evolving!
Takumi appeared by her bedside.
Seeing Lilia's expression, he couldn't help but chuckle.
