Weird Stories: Gothic Lolita Begins

In the afternoon, Lucia, who was taking a nap under the parasol mimicked by the shadow, was awakened by the continuous thunder in a daze.

"Huh~" Lucia yawned and asked sleepily, "Is it going to rain?"

"No." Miles, who was afraid to sleep, looked seriously at the sky in the northeast and answered with a serious expression, "It seems that two superpowers are fighting."

"Superpower fighting? Here?" Lucia was instantly alert, "Are there any cruise ships passing by here?"

"Theoretically not." Miles, who had already contacted his superiors through a satellite phone, answered affirmatively.

"Then how..." Lucia was puzzled and guessed, "Does he have the same spatial ability as Lenari?"

"Not sure." Miles said, hesitating whether to wake up Lenari who was still sleeping and leave quickly.

Just as Miles was struggling with himself, Lenari yawned, woke up sleepily, and looked listlessly in the direction of the thunder.

"A lightning-type mutant vs. an ice-type mutant..." Lenari muttered to himself, "How boring."

"Can you see what's going on over there?" Miles asked tentatively.

"Yeah." Lenari answered casually, "The lightning-type has a golden hedgehog head, wearing a leopard-patterned T-shirt and shorts, and has a stinky face that says he's the best in the world; the ice-type is pretty, with short black hair and ice-blue eyes, like a well-behaved junior high school boy."

The more Miles listened, the more solemn his expression became. After Lenari finished speaking, he took out his specially modified smartphone and pressed it frantically.

After a while, Miles turned the phone screen to Lenari and asked, "Is the lightning-type this person?"

Lenari took a look and nodded.

Miles slid his finger, and another photo occupied the screen: "The ice-type, is it him?"

Lenari noticed the subtle difference in Miles' tone, and glanced at him in confusion and nodded.

Although he was mentally prepared, when he got a positive answer, Miles still gasped and decisively suggested: "The fight between these two people is very dangerous, let's go!"

"Danger?" Lenari turned his head and looked at the air in the northeast direction, his expression confused.

"There's nothing to see. Many of those superpowers who claim to be strong are like this. They fight each other every day, which is meaningless." Miles couldn't help but say, "Let's go back, so as not to be hit by the waves-"

"Boom-"

A spectacular thunderbolt struck down, hitting the yacht, blasting a wave of water, and interrupted Miles' slightly anxious words.

Lucia was startled by the sudden thunderbolt. She didn't hold on firmly and was thrown off the deck of the yacht that was violently undulating with the waves.

"Meow--" The black kitten thrown into the air kicked its limbs and screamed in fear.

The shadow hand extended in time, caught Lucia, and gently put her back in Lenari's arms.

Lenari stroked the black cat's messy hair that was mostly wet, and pouted his mouth slightly.

Just at this moment, there was a muffled "bang", and something was smashed into the sea near the yacht at high speed, and huge waves followed, forcing Lenari to control the shadow to completely wrap the yacht.

——When the lightning struck just now, Lenari had already used his "superpower" to protect the yacht, otherwise, even if the boat did not capsize, Lucia and Miles would be electrocuted to death...

The sea is vast, and the "huge" waves in the eyes of Lucia and Miles just now are just an inconspicuous little splash, which soon subsided without a trace.

Seeing the waves subside, Lenari dispersed the shadow ball and controlled the shadow to lift the yacht and gently fall back to the calm sea surface.

On the sea surface not far from the yacht, a 15-year-old boy with white shirt, black pants, coffee-colored wool vest, black hair and blue eyes emerged from the water in a supine position with his limbs spread out. Obviously, it was him who had just been thrown into the water.

Lenari held Lucia, who had barely calmed down, and frowned at the boy lying quietly in the sea. After a moment, her eyes moved up.

The next second, a flash of lightning flashed, and a young man wearing leopard-print clothes, pants and sandals, with short golden hair as flamboyant as a hedgehog and an arrogant expression appeared in Lenari's sight.

The young man glanced at the yacht that shouldn't be in this ocean. He was too lazy to explore it. He just stared at the black-haired boy lying dead on the sea and said sarcastically: "The so-called 'Ice Emperor' is nothing more than this!"

On the yacht, Lenari looked at the hedgehog-headed young man for a while, then lowered his eyes and fell on the face of the dead boy again, and said calmly: "I don't understand."

The hedgehog-headed young man frowned when he saw someone interrupting him, and finally paid some attention to the ordinary yacht that was neither new nor old.

Seeing that the person who spoke was a pretty and cute swimsuit loli, the hedgehogThe hedgehog-headed youth swallowed the scolding that was about to come to his mouth, and said "lazily": "If I were you, I would definitely stay as far away as possible."

Lenari ignored the hedgehog-headed youth and continued to say to the lying corpse youth: "You can easily kill this kind of thing in an instant, right? Why do you pretend to be at a disadvantage?"

Because he was ignored and because of Lenari's words, the hedgehog-headed youth was furious: "You——"

"Squeak——"

The sharp thorns of the shadow grew out of his internal organs, bringing out a burst of blood, like a cruel flower blooming.

The pupils of the hedgehog-headed youth suddenly dilated, and in horror, his whole body turned into lightning, and he retreated a long distance in a flash.

The lying corpse youth on the sea silently opened his eyes, looked at the blood flowers that were sprinkled on his head with a little disdain, and suddenly disappeared.

The blood flowers fell into the sea and were diluted in an instant, leaving only a faint smell of blood that gradually faded away.

A few meters away, the figure of the boy emerged out of thin air, slowly fell down, and finally stood steadily on the water, his whole body dry and not wet.

"... Because it's boring." He said indifferently.

"Even if it's boring," Lenari complained bluntly, "Instead of 'fighting' with such a guy, it's better to go to kindergarten to play house with children... At least, playing with children is not meaningless."

"..." The boy lowered his eyes slightly, as if thinking.

He always looked indifferent and detached, as if all emotions were frozen.

But Lenari knew that it was just an appearance.

Before the boy could think of any results, the hedgehog head who was sharp-eyed and heard the conversation between the two people in the distance was furious.

He roared in exasperation, endured the pain in his internal organs, concentrated all his strength, and blasted a thunder bombardment that eclipsed the sky and the earth.

The boy did not look back.

Lenari did not move.

In Lucia's exclamation, time and space were frozen.

Like solidified amber, the hedgehog-headed youth and the thick and exaggerated thunder were lifelike.

That day, Miles finally understood that the power symbolized by various arrogant titles such as "Emperor", "King", "God" and "Devil" was very different.
