’So sweet~’

’Love to eat~’

…

But,

’Why did those sisters stop petting me? It felt so comfy.’

’And also’

’Why is there liquid in the lollipop? Is it a kind with a liquid center?’

’If it is a center-filled kind, why does the liquid taste so...’

In her confusion, the drowsy Meliora slowly raised her hand to wipe away the "syrup" that dripped from the corner of her mouth, and curiously opened her sleepy eyes to look at her palm.

’??’

’Hmm?’

’What is this?’

"Red syrup?"

Meliora furrowed her brows, because at this moment, the little dragon loli was somewhat astonished to find that not only her mouth...

Her hands and clothes were all stained with this bright red syrup.

Even the ground was covered in this eerie syrup, and among this "syrup" there were some strange things that seemed like human tissue. Obviously, normal syrup would not contain such foreign objects...

’!?!’

’Hmm?... No! That’s not right!’

"This, this is?!"

Suddenly, as if realizing something was amiss, Meliora had a start, her mind immediately clearing from its drowsy state.

The dragon Loli’s vision also gradually shifted from blurry to clear.

Then,

Meliora’s eyes widened in shock, overcome with a sudden, indescribable astonishment that left her as still as if she had been struck by lightning.

The group of older sisters who had surrounded her before were now, with the exception of a purple-haired dragon girl, suddenly all disappeared.

No,

To say that they had disappeared is not entirely accurate.

More precisely, their presence still lingered, but in a different form. They had turned into countless pieces of flesh and blood that stained her clothes and dyed the ground red. The girls’ torn clothes, incomplete bodies... brains, organs, intestines, and more were scattered all around, turning the previously warm scene into a bloody hell.

The once lively and beautiful old sisters had become nothing more than pieces of meat that couldn’t even be called corpses.

The thick smell of blood and the heavy atmosphere surrounded Little Meili, and she couldn’t come back to her senses for a long time. She just stared in disbelief at everything around her.

Her dragon eyes were filled with an incredulous emotion.

It wasn’t until Meliora’s sense of taste had completely returned.

Partially regaining her sense of taste, Meliora suddenly felt a strong and unpleasant smell in her mouth. The intense discomfort made her stomach churn. Then, she abruptly vomited out the "lollipop" from her mouth... After spitting out the soft round ball, Meliora was horrified to discover...

It wasn’t a lollipop,

It was an eyeball...

A dragon girl’s eyeball...

A deep blue eye that seemed as profound as the ocean, could it be the one that was feeding her candy just before and stroking her head from the Luminous Academy?! The look in those eyes was full of tenderness before, but now... on the ground, besides fear and despair, there was no other emotion in the dragon’s eye...

In the pool of blood, the remaining human parts also showed similar expressions.

"What... what is this... what... happened?"

Meliora murmured to herself, with a trembling voice.

After succumbing to the nature of a little girl, she was naturally not foolish,

The pool of fresh blood and minced flesh on the ground, the eyeball she had spat out from her mouth, and the slight feeling of fullness in her stomach.

What had she just done to those dozen girls? It was self-evident...

Meliora didn’t have an aversion to eating humans. More than eight hundred years ago, when she formed an alliance with humans to fight against the increasingly powerful demon race, she had swallowed quite a few foolish mortals who had ventured into her territory. However, the problem was that among the girls she had just swallowed... there were even some dragons…

Among them, the owner of the blue eyes from earlier even had some Sacred Dragon bloodline! In other words...

’Did I just eat my own kind?!’

"How could... how could I?"

Meliora looked at her blood-soaked hands in disbelief.

She couldn’t understand why she had suddenly done such a thing?!

Just a moment ago, they were still in such a warm atmosphere?!

….

"No... Please..."

And at this moment,

A faint, trembling plea caught Meliora’s attention, making the golden-haired dragon loli turn her head to look at a girl beside her.

"Huh?! You... who are you?!"

And at this moment,

Another blood-drenched golden-haired girl, kneeling in a pool of blood,

This girl, like the blue-haired girl from before who had been torn apart by Meliora, also possessed the bloodline of the Sacred Dragon, making her a fellow member of Meliora’s clan.

At this moment, the golden-haired dragon girl was trembling all over, cold sweat pouring out, and her heart beating wildly in her chest.

Even though she had a strong desire to escape, after her deep-seated fear overwhelmed her, the golden-haired girl had become completely numb all over, unable to move, and almost on the verge of passing out. Her spirit was on the brink of collapsing. What she could do now was to weakly plead and sob uncontrollably.

"Please... please, don’t..."

As if she had witnessed something horrifying and terrifying, the golden-haired girl looked at Meliora with eyes that were no longer filled with pity but rather as if she was looking at a ferocious and bloodthirsty monster.

Facing the pleading of her kin, or rather, the next generation, Meliora felt heartache and wanted to reach out to comfort her.

"No, don’t worry, I won’t hurt you..."

Saying that,

Meliora attempted to lift her hand to soothe the frightened and disoriented golden-haired girl. As Meliora spoke comforting words, the trembling golden-haired girl swallowed a mouthful of blood, anxiously and nervously staring at Meliora’s small hand.

Seemingly influenced by the sudden change in Meliora’s aura and her tone, the golden-haired dragon girl felt a glimmer of hope for survival.

However,

Just as Meliora reached out her hand, a strangely uncontrollable force suddenly surged out from within her body, rapidly gathering in her arm.

Under Meliora’s stunned gaze, her blood-soaked little hand was instantly covered with bizarre, eerie patterns of dark blue light.

"What...?!"

The next moment, accompanied by the dragon Loli’s astonished cry, her right hand suddenly went out of control, rapidly swelling at an unimaginable speed and distorting into a pale white giant, terrifying claw! It directly grabbed the golden-haired dragon girl and squeezed her into the claw with a strength that was beyond comprehension, deforming her body in the process.

The painful screams of the girl echoed throughout the camp.

"?!!"

"No! Please Don’t!!!"

Her eyes suddenly shrank, and Meliora, realizing something was terribly wrong with her body, couldn’t help but cry out in fear, using all her strength to try to control her own arm and prevent the horrifying scene that was about to unfold.

However,

Meliora quickly despaired when she realized that, although the terrifying pale giant claw was a part of her body, she had no control over it whatsoever. No matter how hard she tried, her consciousness had no influence over the giant claw, which only increased its grip on the golden-haired girl, squeezing her to the point of unbearable pain.

Due to the immense pressure on her lungs, the golden-haired dragon girl couldn’t even muster the strength to scream, and could only despairingly feel the shattering of her internal organs and the cracking of her bones.

Seeing that her will was powerless, Meliora even thought about sacrificing her own left arm to save the dragon girl in front of her.

However,

It was already too late when she thought of doing so.

The pale giant claw seemed to have its own consciousness, as it used one finger to press down on the golden-haired girl’s head, preventing even her weak whimpering.

Snap*

The girl who had been tender and delicate just a few minutes ago now lay in a pool of flesh, with blood and brain fluid slowly dripping from the giant claw’s fingertips...

After staring blankly at this scene for a few moments, Meliora suddenly bit her lip, and her sharp fangs even tore her lip.

After the shock and helplessness, an unprecedented surge of anger erupted in Meliora’s heart, like molten lava during a volcanic eruption, exploding in her innermost being.

"Mo... Mokaro!!!!!! You bastard aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

…

….

Almost at the same time, in a certain street within the inner city of Anvika, a handsome man dressed in an Archbishop’s white robe with the insignia of Asumos Church and with golden braided hair, was quietly leaning against the wall with his eyes closed.

The chaos of the outer district and the earth-shattering battle in the distance seemed to have nothing to do with him as if he were in a state of being out of this chaos.

Slowly raising his hand, a strange bloody flower began to grow in the palm of the man’s hand.

As the man slightly opened his eyes, revealing a meaningful smile, the bloody flower quietly bloomed.

A strange power, centered on the man, rippled around.
