Ouroboros's Soul

Chapter 12: Danger of cold-blooded people



The two girls were now surrounded by many dangerous bloodsuckers. If they ran away now, they would not be able to escape because vampires were very fast and had the ability to teleport, so running was not a good idea.

A vampire approached. He was very tall and had pale skin. He pulled down his mask and sniffed the scent in the air.

"I thought someone was formidable, but it turns out to be the disciple of that half-fat, half-lean kid. It seems that she didn't teach her disciple well enough not to enter the territory of a dangerous race."

"Don't threaten me. Even if my level is not even half of Ryu's, I'm still better than the other rookies."- Lyra

"No, no, no. Master, don't provoke them."- Stepha whispered in panic

Wiro looked around and saw that the situation wasn't good. It wasn't that he didn't believe in Lyra's fighting skills, but with so many enemies, it was impossible. Instead...

So the little wolf immediately connected his spiritual subconscious to Alexis to have a private conversation that no one could hear.

"Hey, do you want to try it?"- Wiro

"What do you want me to try?"- Alexis

"Remember to follow my instructions"- Wiro

Although Lyra said that to show off, she was actually trembling inside, her heart was pounding in her chest. The vampires could also hear the heartbeat of their prey, the faster the heart beat, the faster the blood vessels moved, which meant the prey would be more delicious.

"I want to taste her blood first, then Ouroboros"

"No, I want to try it first!"

"I heard that the blood of tarot readers and Ouroboros has a lot of spiritual energy"

"So the delicious food is always placed last, right?"

The girl was about to use a card in the deck when Alexis suddenly hugged her from behind, surprising Lyra.

"What are you doing?"- Lyra

"Go wild, Wiro!"- Alexis

A blue flame surrounded the two girls, causing the vampires to retreat. From within the flame, a black wolf appeared, carrying Alexis and Lyra on its back. It howled loudly. The eyes of the bloodsuckers were filled with astonishment.

"Tarot soul?! What nonsense is this? How could a tarot soul appear in the real world?!"

"Could it be because of her?!"

"Hold on to me tight"

Wiro jumped high to avoid the vampires and ran at a very fast speed. If he didn't let his prey escape, they would chase after him. Although Wiro's body was a bit larger than that of a normal wolf, his speed and agility were very sharp, he could move through small alleys.

Meanwhile, the terrain did not pose any difficulties for the vampires, only one of them, who was wearing a mask, felt something strange.

"Why are you running away with a wolf of such size? Isn't that inconvenient?"

While thinking, one of them saw the target and shouted loudly.

"There they are!"

"Hurry up and chase after them!"

When they saw the wolf carrying the two girls jumping over the fence, the vampires also jumped after them. In front of them was a gate leading to a parallel world. When they fell freely, the vampires had already grabbed the wolf Wiro.

"It's useless, you can't escape us!"

"Behave and surrender"

"Oh, is that true?"- Alexis

Wiro the wolf immediately breathed out a blue flame and disappeared into the air, leaving all the vampires in shock, not understanding what was happening.

"Are you kidding?!"

"Can that wolf do that?"

Seeing the vampires being trapped so simply from the opposite building made the two girls feel it was ridiculous that those who had lived so long would not expect to be led by the nose by a weak creature like them.

"I didn't expect you to have such a good plan"- Lyra

"It's all thanks to Wiro, tarot souls have the ability to sense where there are portals, the smaller the portal, the harder it is to notice their presence"- Stepha

"I didn't expect you to teach me how to create your presence in this world from the very first time. But what if someone sees it?"- Alexis

"You don't need to worry about that. Mysterious or supernatural things are already hidden so no one will notice"- Wiro

"Oh, so that's how it is!"- Alexis

"Let's go back now"- Wiro

"I don't think so"

A voice caught their attention, it was the masked vampire who seemed to be not stupid like the others. Before she could do anything, he teleported closer to them and grabbed Alexis by the neck, dragging her away from Lyra and Wiro.

"You're really a nuisance, Ouroboros."

"Let me go..."- Alexis

"Let that girl go!"- Lyra

"Shut up, tarot reader. Are you really that naive to think that all of us can fall into your stupid trap? You should think that exceptions will happen."

"Ugh..."- Alexis

"Let me tell you. Don't be so stupid as to provoke the Blood Moon Clan, the descendants of the god of blood!"

Just as she was about to stop breathing, Alexis saw something behind the masked vampire. He turned his head to look behind him, but suddenly he was thrown away by the strange creature and his hand dropped Alexis to the ground.

Wiro immediately recognized the creature, it was the creature that attacked the innocent last night, without thinking the wolf rushed forward to save his master. Lyra immediately jumped off the wolf's back to avoid danger and at the same time she used the tarot card.

"O knight who always moves forward, cover and protect, I call upon you, The Chariot. With the support of the Knight of Wands, overcome obstacles, burn a mighty fire!" - Lyra

The tarot card in Lyra's hand immediately lit up, and next to it appeared the true form of a chariot pulled by two black horses covered in red fire, the person standing on it was a knight wearing purple armor all over his body, the head was a stork, the crown on his head was burning like candles with some places on the armor burning like his two horses. The Chariot raised his hand and a short stick appeared, flaming spears appeared beside him, then The Chariot pointed at the creature.

The spears shot straight towards the creature, it heard the danger and dodged. Each time the spears were thrown down, they exploded, but not only did they miss the creature, they almost put Alexis in danger if she hadn't dodged them. It seemed that the creature had intelligence, it immediately found a way to jump out and block Alexis's path, causing the spears that Chariot threw to both attack it and injure the girl.

The wolf tried to run to save his master, while trying to avoid the fire spears and the explosions they caused as much as possible.

"Can't you control your card?"- Wiro

"Hey, I tried! The Chariot only focused on the main target and didn't attack Alexis!"- Lyra

"But it got her involved, why can't you see the problem?"- Wiro

When Alexis had no more strength to run, the creature blocked her path, the fire spear was thrown towards her, the creature jumped to another place to avoid the explosion. The girl managed to dodge away, but her leg was badly burned by the explosion, so she was in a lot of pain. The creature then jumped towards The Chariot and with a strong swing, The Chariot disappeared back into a card in Lyra's hand.

At the same time, it also attacked Lyra, knocking her away before she crashed into the wall, and Stepha had to take the damage to protect his master. Wiro approached his master but before he could touch him, the wolf realized that he was about to shrink again.

In order to maintain his large size, Wiro taught Alexis how to share part of his body's energy with him so that he could grow up. But because the connection between him and his master was still very weak, the energy sharing was also shortened.

The situation was urgent, Lyra had the ability to fight but was knocked away, the masked vampire was unconscious, Alexis was seriously injured and could not continue to provide energy to Wiro. If he fought, he would not be able to win and would instead be killed, there was a way he could do it but it depended on luck.

But now there was no time to think anymore as the creature was gradually approaching. So the wolf immediately gathered all the remaining energy and sucked in a very loud sound, Wiro's howl created a wave that echoed throughout the sky. Normal people couldn't see anything so they thought it was just a strong wind blowing by naturally.

Because of that, Wiro had turned back into a small puppy, he still bravely growled threateningly, ready to confront the creature in front of him.

"If you want this girl, then step over my dead body. I won't let you take her away!" - Wiro

The creature didn't care about the little wolf's threat at all and immediately raised its hand to attack the wolf with a single blow. Wiro was ready to confront the enemy.

"That's what a tarot soul is, protecting their master with their life even if they don't have a chance to counterattack."

A voice rang out from above, the moonlight shone down and there were four black shadows standing there.
