BLACK MOON - Black Magic War Beginning with Jailbreak - [Full story illustration available]

One room in Barbara's dining room. In a dim room bed, Burt is lying down. Emilia sat in a chair by the bed and watched Bart sleep.

"Emilia......"

"Huh!

To Burt, who suddenly utters words, Emilia raises an unspoken voice.

"Haha...... I was asleep?

"Yes. Your father took you home scratched"

"Pity... why am I so helpless..."

Bart regretted his lack of power. I couldn't even do a lot of damage to the masked man, and he came home in a worn out state.

"Burt is not helpless!

"I'm powerless... we have a black magician (Grigori). Compared to them, there's no power in me."

[]/batin/

"What are you doing?

Burt was in pain of his own powerlessness, but suddenly a severe pain ran on his left cheek. Burt's left cheek is swollen since Benjamin hit him last night. Emilia bintered her left cheek, knowing it or not.

"Well, stop saying I'm..." "You're strong..."

Emilia's emotions were high until shortly after she bintered Bert, but she regained her composure as she spoke.

On the contrary, I can now see shame in her face.

"... why would you think that?

"Thanks to you...... I was safe yesterday. Thanks to you for your hard work until you are so..."

A glimmer of tears was telling Emilia's cheek. Seeing her face like that, Burt blushes his cheeks.

"And naturally! I'll give you a wrinkle-filled monster or something!

Burt suddenly got embarrassed. He loves Emilia. I've been saying from time to time that I'm the one marrying Emilia. That's Burt, but when I had to be alone, I got weird and nervous.

"Phew..."

"By the way, what do you think of that blonde black magician (Grigori)?

Burt, who felt awkward about the air flowing between them, abruptly switched the subject. This may be the tickling air flowing between lovers, but Burt couldn't stand it.

"Why are you asking me that?

"Because he's stronger and more dependable than me... Oh, you like him ⁉ ●"

There were parts of Bart that were now a little humbled, but this word was his true intent. As if he were a prince, Belle suddenly appeared. Not only does he appear refreshed, but he also possesses powerful black magic (Grimoire).

He also wondered if Emilia was attracted to Belle, even from Emilia's reverence for calling him “the Knight”.

"Well... you don't know."

Emilia smiled when she heard that. Burt could not understand the meaning of this smile at this time. Emilia had a feeling of love for Blunt Burt.

By that time, the Bells were visiting the Moon Tower.

Tower of the Moon, once the name St. Renato Tower. This tower is considered the most sacred building for the followers of Renato. The tower was so high that it was likely to reach heaven, but at its bottom it had become a chapel, with the townspeople visiting it every day.

The worshippers never cease to worship when the sun goes down, and the Bells continue to worship even when the Moon Guard (Luna Guard) appears. On the altar of the chapel were untold offerings dedicated.

Moon Guard captain Benjamin, and three new members, stopped in front of the chapel altar.

"Belle Quill Faust, Raleigh and Jim Corey. I recognize you as members of the Luna Guard."

Benjamin's low voice echoes into the chapel. Three of them made it through Beast Road safely. Bells using natural (Natre) black magic (Grimoire), Raleigh using superimposed (Vice) black magic (Grimoire), and an incapacitated gym.

"From now on, for the Pope's sake, I ask you to use that power. In becoming a member of the Luna Guard, let the Pope first pledge his allegiance."

At the center of the chapel, the enlistment ceremony of three Black Mages (Grigori) Moon Guard (Luna Guard) begins.

"I dedicate this orb to the Pope"

The first person to open his mouth was Jim Corey. Did you just get lucky or did you use black magic (Grimoire)? The man who ran through Beast Road with the Bells. On one knee he swears allegiance to the Pope.

"I dedicate this orb to the Pope"

Then Raleigh did the same thing with Jim. Raleigh is an atheist comrade, but in order to infiltrate the Moon Guard (Luna Guard) he has to play the false self.

Bell, on the other hand, could hardly speak the line. You don't want to do it, even if it's a lie, such as swearing allegiance to someone hostile from the bottom of your heart.

"Quick!"

Raleigh, in a bent state, whispers to Bell.

"... do I have to swear allegiance to a guy I've never even met?

"What's up? Is there a problem, too?

Benjamin didn't miss the disturbing move between Bell and Raleigh.

"Yes, no. Nothing."

"Right..."

Seeing Bell in a hurry to fix it, Benjamin never mentioned it any more.

"To the Pope... I dedicate this orb..."

At last, Bell decided his mind. In an attempt to swear allegiance by word, Bell has only hostility towards the Pope. The vow of enlistment is a formality only. Bell had no dust, no faith.

"Great. Now you're clear and part of the Luna Guard. As a token of that, I will give you this."

Bell and Raleigh successfully infiltrated the Moon Guard (Luna Guard).

What they were given by Benjamin was a black cape. That's the same thing Benjamin wore, only the colors were different. The cloak of the Moon Guard (Luna Guard) other than the new member I joined today is blue and purple.

It was a bell that had refused to pledge allegiance to the Pope, but the cloak given was soon woven with feathers.

"Just now, no one else has recruited a new Black Mage (Grigori). You all know the Pope's wedding is coming up, don't you? We haven't been able to make contact with the bride to say it's a wedding in a while."

"What does that mean?

Jim is surprised that he doesn't know what's going on. I haven't even been able to make contact with the bride, even though the wedding has been decided. Whatever you think is unusual.

"For the people, happiness is never better when you are united with the Pope. But there seems to be someone who can get in the way of it."

Benjamin's face clouded. I'm sure you're thinking back to last night's battle with Bart.

"There are those punitive people..."

Jim didn't seem to know that there were people in this town who denied Renato. Jim is the type of person who gets wrapped up in something long. Accept as a matter of course, without rebelling against what is around you. That's how he lived.

"The wedding could be ruined as it is...... multiple people are in our way. So, I need you to get information on the unidentified rebel forces. Two days of respite."

That there is not one who protests, that is a clear fact last night. The Moon Guard (Luna Guard) also has no information on the rebels, as Barbara and the others have not grasped the Moon Guard (Luna Guard).

"Is it only two days? ⁉;"

Bell shows a blatant surprise.

"Naturally. The wedding is in 5 days. Except for today, we have four days. Grab reliable information and be sure to bring Miss Lambert with you. I won't let anyone get in the way!

As Barbara imagined, the Moon Guard (Luna Guard) was in a hurry. No fine dust respite was also left for Benjamin to keep the wedding on schedule. Black Mage (Grigori), who joined as a new force, is a reversal detonator. Benjamin must think so.

"And one more thing. Three days before the wedding, that is, two days from now. Based on the information you've obtained, we're conducting a Miss Emilia takeover operation. Seven, including me and you, will pick up Miss Lambert."

"Why 7 people? Shouldn't we summon the Luna Guard?

Raleigh speaks of doubt.

The Moon Guard (Luna Guard) has no future. If you spare no effort and can't take Emilia away, you won't have an ex or a child. Yet, with about a third of the total number, are we going to decide on a takeover operation?

"This is insurance in case. We shouldn't all fall for their traps. I don't think that's going to happen first..."

"I see."

"It's up to you guys to make the wedding work! Be sure to grab the information within the deadline. Otherwise, I'll have that orb dedicated."

Benjamin's eyes were ruthless. The Moon Guard (Luna Guard) becomes the Pope's hand and leg. They are pawns for the Pope to carry everything as he wishes. For this reason, the Lunar Guard must give up his life.

Enlistment An assignment told early. It's "getting detailed information on the rebel forces." The rebel forces infiltrated the Luna Guard. That's not what Benjamin would dream of. Bell and Raleigh, who received their lives, just headed to Barbara's dining room.

Shortly after seeing Barbara's face, Bell happily reported the results of the exam.

"I thought you guys would do it."

Before hearing the results from Bell's mouth, Barbara knew the results of the exam. The look on Bell's face when he came into the dining room after closing told the whole story. Bell was a man whose emotions were easy on his face. If Raleigh wasn't around, the enemy would find out the lies.

"So... did you get any information on Luna Guard?

With Barbara's words in mind, Bell and Raleigh's report began; the two communicated the information obtained so far in detail.

However, there was still a lot of uncertainty about the Moon Guard (Luna Guard), including Benjamin's abilities and whether there was a Black Mage (Grigori) besides the Summoner.

"You're doing great. Even if we can just preface their actions, it's a huge advance!

Barbara slackened her licence. Until now, I have no information about Luna Guard.

But now I can figure out what they're doing. Once you know what you're thinking, it's easy to set up measures.

"Well, just now... Emilia hides at Raleigh's house"

"Huh?"

Raleigh turned her eyes round.

"You are already part of the Luna Guard. You won't be here to explore your people's homes first."

If Bell and Raleigh are not known to be hostile forces to the Moon Guard (Luna Guard), this operation should work.

"Tell Luna Guard that this is her home and that she's hiding Emilia here."

"Am I supposed to tell you this place?

Bell was simply surprised by Barbara's operation. This is the stronghold of the comrades. Can we reveal such an important place to our enemies?

"I don't mind. The overwhelmingly advantageous ones are the Atashi and the others, right? Besides, if you report any bullshit at all, you're not gonna be trusted."

Barbara smiled confidently. She seems to be working closely on the operation. Indeed, what she says is logical and well calculated.

"Is that what you're saying..."

"I still have something for you to do in two days..."

The story of Leader Barbara was not over yet, and two days later there is a great chance of falling into the Moon Guard (Luna Guard). Barbara described the operation in detail.

There is still a lot of information that has not been obtained about Luna Guard. But if this operation goes well, we'll be able to grasp their strengths, and we'll be able to make a huge obstacle to the wedding.

A few hours later, Bart wakes up from his sleep.

"Who? ⁉R"

At the end of his gaze was a figure. He wears a long robe and his face is hidden in the hood, so he cannot know who it is.

My eyes got used to the darkness and I found out, but that robe was commonly used by humans in this town, from which it was impossible to guess who they were. Probably what most people in town have.

………………

"Are you a vampire?

Vampires. The words came first to Bart's head. Show up out of the dark and inhale people's blood. I'm suspicious that you're hiding who you are again.

"............... don't you want the power?

Without answering Bart's question, the mysterious figure asks Bart.

"What?"

Bart was confused. Ignore this inquiry and make the opposite inquiry. The act turned his nerves upside down.

But “don't you want power?". This word hooked Bert. It was the feeling he always held deep in his heart.

"You don't want power? I can empower you."

I was confused Bert, but I was strangely fascinated by this person's words. That's supposed to be a voice I've never even heard of, but it was a familiar voice for some reason.

"What are you talking about? I don't make a deal with demons."

Black magic (Grimoire) when it comes to gaining power in this world. Multilaterally, I wonder if it's the demon or something that looks like a person right now. That's what Bart thought.

"There's no place like the need for you to sign a contract with the devil. Give me blood. That's all I need."

It was also an indication that this person was a vampire.

"... I knew you were the vampire. Who the hell is that?! Show me who you are!

Burt couldn't help but want to know who the vampire was. He thinks vampires are among the atheist comrades.

"Separating blood from me. And never trying to reveal who I am"

The mysterious figure utters the words from the beginning without changing anything. It's like a robot with no emotions.

"What did you say..."

"That's the condition that empowers you."

"I don't even want the power you give me!

Burt was powerful and rejected a vampire (vampire) suggestion. For him, it's inconceivable to gain strength from a killer who doesn't know how to handle it. And who are the vampires you've been chasing without revealing?

Black Mage (Grigori)

⁉ ︎

"Your people have Black Mage (Grigori). And you have a loved one."

"How do you know that?"

Bart was upset. Vampires know Bart's troubles. And I also know the qualities of the comrades.

"You want to protect those you love. But you don't have the power to protect her. Two black magicians (Grigori) possess that power. Not you."

Vampires do not answer Bart's question in any way. Just stick to what you want to say.

"To you... what do you know..."

Burt was frustrated. Vampires say things as if they saw him through to the depths of their hearts. The vampire was right, but Bart didn't want to admit it out loud.

"I'll give you the power to protect her."

To the words, Burt was distraught. If you accept a vampire proposal now, you don't need to hold your head to your powerless self anymore. You won't be hit unilaterally by a masked man.

"... who's a vampire!

But Bart shook off a moment of stray. No matter how sweet the words seduce you to come, what is now in front of you is the murderer who killed your people. I can't forgive this person.

And it was really unacceptable to benefit from such a person.

"If you don't regret rejecting it, that's fine"

Vampires don't even hit Burt, they turn themselves in and try to leave this place.

………

"Wait a minute, please"

Maybe so, Bart called off the vampires. What the hell is he thinking?
