Once we arrived at Nijo castle I fell a chill running down my spine
The energy in the air was filled with an overwhelming malice powerful enough to make my knees bend
It took me a few seconds to understand what was going on when I laid eyes on Liliana who had an outstreched fist glowing with aura at a figure in front of her
"Tachan!" - I yelled his name
But that face, that crimson red aura, the eye sitting atop his forehead...
The fox girl was right...
Whatever that is, it's not Tachan!
Swallowing the fear that seemed to grip my entire body I ran over to Liliana
"What is this? What happened to Tachan?! What did they do to him?!"
I scream and pull on her silvery dress
"That's... not Tatseyo"
It's all she answers
What does that even mean?! I already know that!
I stare at the thing that looks like Tachan and it's eyes land on me, all three of them, I suddenly feel that cold feeling return through my entire body and step back, an overwhelming urge to get away from it
{This... how could I possibly ask for a better reception party?}
The thing possessing Tachan says with a broad smile and I swallow my fear in order to shout at it
"W-who are you?!"
The thing stretches Tachan's arms out, grinning as if it was waiting for this question
{I AM THE CRIMSON KING! Creator of Espers, benevolent deity who granted your species it's greatest gift! Rejoice, oh espers! For your true leader has finally returned! You may not understand who I am, but by the end of this, you'll see that what I bring is good news, for you all shall inherit this earth!}
W-what?
I take a step back at this
Creator of espers? God? What?
Lady Tatsumaki and Kageyama-san take a step forward and I can barely make out the things they are saying, but I'm snapped back when the thing possessing Tachan raises his arms and pushes both of them down
"Lady Tatsumaki! Kageyama-san!"
I scream, creating a ball of fire on my hands and aiming it towards him
But...
I can't...
My fire doesn't leave me to go towards my target! Why?!
I see a dark shadow whisp by in front of me
Liliana jumped right towards Tatsumaki and Kageyama-san straight in front of the possessed Tachan
"Let Tatseyo go!"
Her golden aura glows brighter and the possessed Tachan steps back, Tatsumaki and Kageyama-san manage to stand up
Kageyama-san looks confused at her
"Thank you... devil girl" - He says with a frown
Lady Tatsumaki cleans up her dress
"And who would you be?"
She glances back at them
"Liliana Caim, I'm a... friend of Tatseyo, I..."
She looks in the direction of the creature
"I know we just met, but I promise I'll do everything I can to get your son back"
