Chapter 197
“Carmilla.”
Just like Vlad III the infamous Dracula, she was well-known as Vampire too.
However, Elizabeth, who was summoned at the age of fourteen, has not yet committed the sin killing the girls in thirst for their blood, and she has not yet been nicknamed Carmilla.
At that time, Elizabeth called her future nickname.
Using a torture tool called Iron Maiden, Assassin tortured countless girls in the thirst of their blood, a cruel and ruthless servant.
“You…! You were summoned too…!?”
Assassin Carmilla yelled in surprise.
Her sharp nails immediately extended like a sharp claw aiming at Elizabeth.
“You can be summoned, why can’t I?”
Elizabeth blocked Carmila’s sharp claw with her magic spear.
“Hya!”
Those two immediately jumped back after the short clash.
Elizabeth and Carmilla stared at each other.
“This is not a place for a little girl to be!”
Carmilla glared at Elizabeth.
“I’m not a little girl! I am everyone’s idol!”
Elizabeth shouted.
“What idol? How ridiculous!” Carmilla glared at Elizabeth and said, “You’ve gotta be kidding me!”
“No, I’m not!” Elizabeth stubbornly said, “It’s you! You are the root of the problem.”
What did she mean?
Of course, it was because of her thirst for the girl’s blood, and that was all because of her pursuit of eternal beauty.
Carmila understood that.
The reason was simple.
“Since you are me, and I am you, there is no way you don’t know what I mean.”
Elizabeth said.
However, her words were enough to surprised everyone in the vicinity.
“The same existence?”
Even Vlad III, who was fighting against Kiyohime, was quite surprised to hear that.
“……Is that so?”
Kiyohime finally understood why Elizabeth was obsessed with trying to kill Assassin.
That was right.
Elizabeth and Carmilla was the same person.
As mentioned before, even the same existence might be summoned at the same time, but they will have a different class and age, and possibly came from a different time.
That was what happened with Elizabeth and Carmilla.
One of them was summoned at the age of 14 years old, that was before she committed the crime of murdering a ton of girls.
Meanwhile, the other one was already an adult. She has already turned into a bloody Countess, Carmila.
This led to a decisive opposition between the two sides.
As the legend said, Elizabeth, who already turned into Carmila, was very cruel. But the younger her was a girl full of love for others.
Carmilla’s thirst for blood derived from her desire to use blood to regain her beauty.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth was still a young girl, and she did not feel any need to pursue beauty at that age.
One of them was her past self, and the other was her future self.
Young Elizabeth refused to be Carmilla and had no intention to commit stupid crimes for things that didn’t make sense at all.
Carmilla also hated Elizabeth. For her, Elizabeth was just an ignorant little girl who thought she didn’t have to sacrifice anything to be beautiful and cute.
“Unpleasant… really unpleasant…”
Carmilla murmured.
“It is really unpleasant to see my ignorant past self. All she knows was to waste her youth and her beauty.”
Elizabeth’s expression changed when she heard that.
“I know that you are my future self and my end. Even if I deny you, history will not change. I am still the fearful bloody Countess, and I will bear the sins you’ve committed too.”
But…
“Even so, I’ll say one thing for sure.”
Elizabeth said.
“I don’t want to be you! Never!”
For that reason, Elizabeth was determined to stop her future self.
That made Carmilla so angry.
“Then I have no choice but to erase my disgusting past self!”
Carmilla shouted.
“Bring it on!”
Elizabeth’s magical power circulated on her whole body.
Those two Servants, who were the same person, rushed toward each other with the intention to kill.
After seeing that scene, Vlad III and Kiyohime also turned at each other.
“What a splendid opening act.”
Vlad III said.
“So, should we also dance?”
Kiyohime answered Vlad III with her beautiful smile.
“Of course, I haven’t done that on the battlefield for a long time.”
Vlad III smiled leisurely.
“Then let me offer dance for my lord.”
Kiyohime raised the fan in her hand.
In the next moment, the flame on Kiyohime’s fan and Vlad III’s iron spear already clashed with each other.
Boom!
The sound of the explosion echoed on the battlefield.
At the same time, somewhere on the battlefield, those two met again.
“I’ve been waiting for you, my knight.”
With a gentle smile, Marie greeted the enemy who came to assassinate her.
“Please bear with me, although I may not be good enough for you.”
d’Eon said to Mary while pointing the rapier in his hand to the person he has already sworn his loyalty to.
Another unexpected reunion on that battlefield.
