Chapter 45: No More than One.

Most of the more recent books were practically the same during the time back when I was still alive on Earth. I haven't read any reincarnation fantasy novels where the Demons establishes relations and alliances with multiple nations from Earth like some kind of aliens who're trying to take advantage of inferior humans as if they were in a science fiction. So this is all too new for me, and my brain can't quite catch up to whatever is happening right now.

Basically, since the U.S and Great Britain has secretly allied with us, the Baphomet's group or the Southern Sentinel Group—which is one of, if not the Demons' worst enemy at the moment—a conflict between us and the Demons' side would automatically cause another war to happen on both Earth and Cvvoer. And since the war finally began, nations allied with the Demons must've received an ultimatum to help them out in this sudden war. The Demons really are quick with it though, being able to get a Russian military vehicle and then just sending it off to the field in no time. Either they knew about the betrayal already, but were too slow to act directly, or they just found us out and sent in one of the vehicles they currently had at their disposal.

The Russians must've already gave the Demons a ton of their supplies at this point, or else these guys wouldn't just drive one of their cars down a mountain with the intention to hit one enemy, despite the risk of crashing straight into the ground, losing the vehicle, and possibly lives.

If I was wrong about the Demons finding us out however, then there shouldn't be anyone attacking us right now, along with our allies working on the main mission. The mission given to us has failed since we couldn't get to the Demons in time, but another one has came up, and to redeem ourselves, we must get Tahgweiy to the Southern Sentinel Group's main unit and regain control to complete the main mission.

Anyways, enough political thinking and whatevers. I dumped an entire mag on Wolv, but only a few hit him. The recoil was crazy, or maybe it's just because my hands are still weak from the Osprey crashing. I managed to hit Wolv's vehicle after Tahgweiy jumped out of the way, my bullets barely catching Amalie unintentionally.

"Woah, easy there."

"Shit! Men, open fire! Open fire!"

Meanwhile, our team,

"Ambush!! It's an enemy attack!"

"Blast 'em to hell! They ain't our guys!"

"Eh..? Even I can tell we're surrounded. Where're we even supposed to hide? And what am I supposed to do with a sword when they're up in the mountains?!"

"Captain, what are we gonna do?!!"

"Captain, help us!!"

"Quiet down, we are the Holy Knights of Foielrhyy, we shall not falter against such-"

The only part where there were no enemies was the road leading back to the town, but we are literally getting gunned down by machine guns and sniper rifles from every direction but the town right now. Jirania managed to put up a Magical Barrier, temporarily saving us from the projectiles, but also preventing us from using our guns as well. The only option we have left now is to retreat into the abandoned town.

But really, we're only getting sandwiched by the Demons and Tsuchinoko in this situation.

Good thing is that Tsuchinoko, despite being a not-so-morally-good snake, doesn't necessarily side with the Demons, or anyone in particular. She's not necessarily evil either, but for some reason, she's currently after us. So should we try to make her fight, or rather, destroy these Demons before she can get us? She's been chasing after me and Tahgweiy from the other side of the world, so either she's tired right now, or she actually got defeated by the atomic bomb, and that lightning spear was her last move before passing away. Well, either way, she's stunned right now, so we must use this to our advantage and prevent ourselves from getting pressed between these two great forces.

"Fall back, fall back!"

"Wait, I feel like we're forgetting something..."

Oh no! Tahgweiy's still near the enemy's vehicle! She dropped to the ground in order to avoid the gunshots, but Jirania ran up to us and casted [Holy Barrier] before Tahgweiy could even get up! She's strong enough on her own, though. She's not known as the Great White for no reason, unless she's still weakened by that Anti-physical slash, which she probably isn't, right?

"Vixen, don't you care about the Great White at all?! I thought she was your friend, why'd you just leave her like that?!"

As I looked back, I saw Tahgweiy getting stomped by Wolv. Amalie drove their vehicle to crash right into us, breaking down the barrier that Jirania made. Noone got hit because of how spacious the road was, and the car just crashed into a nearby house after Thomas shot it down, possibly injuring the driver.

Bullets rained down on us as soon as our protection was no more.

In a split second, I began to think. I pondered, what could I possibly do right now? Bullets, rockets, and other projectiles are heading towards us. I could save myself, or no, I wouldn't even be scratched by such a weak attack, but for the others here, they would be suffering heavy injuries. Most of my spells are slow, even my more powerful ones, they would take at least a couple seconds to become effective, especially with this brain damage that I got from the Osprey crashing. Not to mention, I still haven't fully recovered from the Anti-physical slash that hit me point-blank. If I try doing anything, at least two of these guys would be shot down. Most of the people here are just normal humans! I can't resurrect them once their hearts stop beating, even though I'm a vampire, since biting creatures only turns them into mindless zombies!

What should I do? What should I do? Time's running out, and my brain is still melting..! Should I force myself to get back into 'Full Concentration mode?' Even if I do, I still won't be fast enough to do anything...

Well. I don't have anymore options.

Upon entering Full Concentration Mode, all 12 of my sense began to function perfectly again. Despite the brain damage, and my instincts telling me not to go into this state, I still managed to find myself inside some sort of 4th dimensional space. I was feeling better, and this mode was working more effectively than all of the other times I used it before. Not only could I see more things, but I could also feel more, and touch more. Now that I can move freely, think instantaneously, and react quickly, I realized just how stupid I was for not going into this form quicker.

There were some utensils, knives, and other throwables in my vest, so I threw them all towards the enemy soldiers up in the mountains, whilst interrupting their bullets before they could hit my allies. I saw how weak Tahgweiy currently was, and how Wolv tormented her in this nearly frozen time, so I threw my last knife at him and then I continued analyzing things. However, once I slowed down, he simply dodged the knife and aimed his handgun at me. A bullet almost hit me, but I managed to grab it in time, throwing it back to the sender right after. It still missed him though.

But now, 86% of the enemies on the mountains were no longer able to fight. It only took me 4 minutes to fix this mess up, at the cost of more brain damage and-

Oh, wait. I remember now. I can heal my brain as well! Using a strange technique, I can function perfectly and perform in complete form again. I forgot how to regenerate lost brain matter and other diseases that quickly grew inside this skull due to my overuse of magic after I got out of my Full Concentration Mode, but going back into Full Concentration Mode solved all those problems instantly, despite previously needing cutting edge precision and skills which were thought to be nigh impossible. I casted [Compact Flower Burn] to create a spear out of my own blood before throwing it at Wolv's chest. Surprisingly, he swiftly dodged that as well. To get rid of any nuisances, I casted [Drought], bringing the enemy's loss percentage up to 98%.

Only Wolv, Amalie, and 4 other soldiers in the mountains survived for now. I wasn't done yet, so I casted [Compact Flower Burn] to create more spears using my blood, with the intention of ending this as soon as possible.

"Wait wait wait!! Stop it, Lilith!! I surrender! I give up, I give up!"

Wolv backed away from Tahgweiy who was laying on the road and knelt down with his hands behind his head. I wanted to throw the spears at him, but I should probably hear him out first. Besides, I don't think there're any other reasons left for me to take his life. We could take him as a prisoner, and send him to the Americans, or the Southern Sentinel Group. Doing that will probably get us some cash without needless bloodshed and more fuel for the Blood God's resurrection.

"Lilith? Who the foo' is Lilith? Come out come out wherever you are, Lilith!"

"Are you referring to Crynosphere? I guess the Great White does call her Lilith as well."

Tahgweiy rose up holding her back like an old man. It's obvious she wasn't that hurt physically, but getting stomped again and again must've been humiliating. I wonder how she didn't even get any scratches though, despite being heavily weakened.

Luren took out a sniper and began hunting down the last 4 enemy soldiers. Quick went around healing everyone and patching up our wounds, since getting hit was truly unavoidable, even for me, as there also seems to be multiple bullet holes in my body which indicates that I was hit without my knowledge. I've already healed myself though, so I'll just have to take these out of my body. Amalie was still in her car, hiding from us while observing from a distance. She knows how dangerous I am, but she doesn't know that I'm aware of her surviving the car crash, and Thomas' emptying 2 mags into her direction.

"Dang. I should've known that someone who took down our general wouldn't be someone that you can just defeat with ordinary human resources."

He was still smiling wickedly. His eyes were faced upwards, much like the Baphomet's, and it disgusted me terribly. I could feel my left eye twitching, trying to hold back from proceeding with throwing the spears at him, but I didn't let anger get the better of me and took the spears back into my body.

"Gah..! My back still hurts! I swear I'm not even that old..!"

Tahgweiy started stretching and doing exercises to relieve her back pain in front of Wolv. She wasn't physically injured in the slightest, as she was shot multiple times by the enemy but the bullets only deflected off her.

"You killed General Seidel. Now you're going to kill us all? I'm simply a man trying to personally get revenge. All of those soldiers you just murdered were all under General as well. You, The Tale of the Great White Shark, or Tagwei, out of all people, should know best about General Seidel."

"Hm? Who might this General Seidel be? Huhuhu! I only know of Sundials, are you perhaps asking me what time it is? Sorry but, the sun's not even out right now! And I wouldn't be out under the sun with my vampire friend, Rireith anyways!"

Suddenly, I could feel Wolv's bloodlust growing heavier. I saw Amalie trying to fix their car desperately, as if something was about to happen. I can calculate what's about to happen right now, and everything I come up with are definitely not good scenarios. One thing is for sure however; their car won't work. Thomas shot it down, from the wheels to the engine somehow. It can't possibly work now, even if they use some sort of magic, since it's literally impossible.

"So..? Who's Seidel?"

"My bad, he's actually known by you and the rest of your friends as Sundown Lighter. Yes, he's the one your beloved Lilith killed."

Tahgweiy stood still for a moment. While it is true that I MAY have caused the death of a few agents of the Baphomet(CAT, Sundown Lighter, and some other insignificant agents whilst taking down the general enemy), the Baphomet and her guys are very neutral, or at least they are supposed to be, so forgiveness is really easy for them. Tahgweiy probably knew about all the people I defeated already, as there's just no way that an agent of the great Baphomet doesn't know who has passed away in their group, right?

"Wha-? Ahahaha! S-stop joking around and die already! Kahaha! Rireith knows how important Lighter is to me! And he even sends me letters every few months! I can tell by the handwriting that it's him! Thomas, get this guy out already!"

"What was tha', Captain Great White? If you wan' me to dispose of tha' man, then just wait over there!"

Phew. I was right. ...I think?

Who's sending her letters?! Did Sundown Lighter actually survive [Antares] to the face?! His face was crushed and he almost drowned under ice, in those bloody cursed waters before taking a nuclear bomb, or at least a weaker one, up to his face. So there's just no way... How could he possibly survive that?!

Well. I guess I should become friends with him if I ever meet him again since we're on the same side now. And the friend of a friend is my friend, right? When have I heard that again?

"Hehehe..! It appears that they're hiding it from you... Don't worry, Lilith, the truth is going to be told not long after this. Even if you kill me now, or send me off to prison, you won't escape your fate. ...May the wonders of the world be kept wonders, until his arrival, until the sabbath."

"Shut your damn mouth, weirdo. Now now, let's getchu ass to base!"

Thomas walked up to Wolv, but then Amalie's broken car began to function again. She almost ran over Tahgweiy and Thomas. Fortunately, they both got out of the way before anything bad happened. Bad news though, Wolv got up and entered the car through the broken front windows by dropkicking. Our enemies were driving off into the mist, so I quickly casted [Compact Flower Burn] to create more spears, immediately throwing it at them afterwards. One of the spears hit the car, but it barely had any effect other than sticking into the vehicle.

The most confusing thing here wasn't how almost every attack I throw at them misses, but rather how their broken down car still managed to work. It doesn't even seem to slow down as I keep on throwing spears at it, whilst Thomas and Luren fires aggressively at them. Luren isn't just a translator, but he's also a sniper. He's not the best, but he's still pretty good, yet he somehow misses every single shot despite his target only moving in a straight line.

What kind of magic are they using to make bullets avoid them? Now I believe that I was actually doing well with Pure's Glock-40, most of my bullets just slid off his magnetic field or something.

"Luren, you suck at this!"

"Shut up, Sergeant! I'm trying my best here..!"

Annoyed, I casted [Jeopardy-Condemnation], gathering up the blood of all the fallen enemy soldiers, and then using them to create a massive ball of burning hot blood to build electricity for me so that I can use Electromagnetic Magic to catch up to Wolv's and Amalie's car.

"What?! Crynosphere is actually using our enemies' blood to make a fireball so that she can melt down the remaining bad guys!??"

You didn't have to yell it out, Kio, everyone can see clearly.

"Over relight. Jeopardy-Condemnation. Tokamak Imitation. Nuclear Fusion Imitation."

Since I didn't have enough Deuterium, hot plasma, and all three isotopes of hydrogen, I had to create them artificially, starting with the plasma by using my own plasma, heating it up with Blood Magic, moving it really fast, and then mixing it into the ball floating above me. Making nuclear fusion reactors is easier here, but there shouldn't be anyone other me that can actually perform such a feat without knowledge of the ones from Earth. I then formed a doughnut structure, or simply, I created the Tokamak device using all that blood, then I took all of my enemies' Deuterium and plasma, whilst also producing them on my own. Now that plasma, Deuterium, Tritium, and the rest were born, I manually began moving them like how the reactors would inside that strange complicated structure. The Tokamak device did the rest of the work, until the 100 million degrees Celsius hot plasma finally created heat energy for me to use against the last two enemies.

It might be overkill, but these guys really are getting on my nerves.

Like lightning, I caught up to them, but I realized that not only was there noone driving the car anymore, but Tsuchinoko has also arrived to get us, and the rest of my allies haven't even realized it yet.

For me, time has stood frozen.

The incomprehensible face of my enemy, Tsuchinoko, or whoever it was, has now appeared behind the UAZ-3151, just a few meters away from me.
