Chapter 64

  Back in Euna, Shokei's party members are being chased by the two Giant Minotaurs. The party continues to run for their lives as the gigantic monsters are proven to be deadly with force. The Minotaurs roared in a warcry as they are in pursuit after their enemies with their axes. Marie tries to keep up with the party as fast as she could. Suddenly, her whole body feels very tired, and she felt exhausted from running. Mizuki looks back to see Marie falling behind to keep up with the party. She slows down a bit to grab her hand and helps Marie to keep up.

  "Oh g-gods!" Saeko shouted while she continues to run. "This is going to become the end for all of us!"

  "D-Don't even think about dying yet!" Rei yelled at her. "Keep moving!!"

  "B-but how will we when...*huff, huff* we have a-any idea to defeat these m-muscur b-beasts?!" Saeko asked her.

  "No idea!" Rei replied back at her. "Just keep running until we think of something!!"

  Rei and her party continue to escape from the Minotaurs. While running, Rei spots a figure standing there. Rei can see that there is a mysterious young girl in a yellow-red dress holding a blue teddy bear in her arms. The party bypassed the girl as she stands there, and they all turn to see that the girl is not moving.

  "Wh-what is she...hey, little girl!!" Rei yelled out at her. "RUN!! RUN BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!"

  The girl's expression on her face looks fearless. She stands in the danger on where the Minotaurs are approaching up to her. Marie has her eyes on the strange girl as she stares at her carefully.

  That girl...she's the same one that saved us from the bzing fire back at Thygya...

  "Why isn't she moving?" Beatrice asked. "She must be insane to go against these beasts!"

  "Hang on a minute." Mizuki said. "I.... didn't we encountered this being before?"

  "Huh?" Rei said, looking confused. "W-who's she?"

  Just then, the girl made her move. With the teddy bear in hand, the girl released the bear out of her arms and let it float in the air. The blue teddy bear made a surrounding glow and then the bear transformed into a gigantic creature. The bear became a gigantic bear with very sharp cws, and its face has an iron mask.

  The giant-sized bear makes its appearance as it stands face to face against the Minotaurs. Rei and her party can see that the mysterious girl's teddy bear was fighting against the monsters. One of the Minotaurs made its move as it charged after the bear. The bear strikes back with a swipe of its sharp cws, sshing the monster through its skin, destroying the being in one blow. The other Minotaur tried to attack the bear by swinging down its axe. The bear sees the attack coming and penetrates through the body of the Minotaur through the skin. The monster cried out in pain as the bear killed the fiendish being with a ssh toward its neck.

  "Woah!" Marie said, blinked to what she sees.

  The Minotaurs were defeated and then the corpse of the monsters disintegrated into dust. The darkness has been extracted and was being sent to the skies. Then, the giant-sized bear transformed back to its normal teddy bear self. The girl in the yellow-red dress caught the bear in her arms as soon as it floats down to her. Rei and her party look up to see that the skies are returning back to normal as the deadly fight against the evil forces was finally over.

  "Grrrr!!" Kukofoges, feeling disappointed, said. "My pns to wipe out the Emissary's allies have been backfired! I don't believe this!"

  Hauntmystic feels the same way as she too is disappointed.

  "Hey...do you still have that book you imprisoned the Emissary in?" Kukofoges asked.

  "I discarded that book somewhere in this forest." Hauntmystic replied. "It's lost somewhere in this forest, not even the Emissary's allies will be able to find her."

  "That is fine." Kukofoges said, nodded. "Until then, I am returning back to base."

  Kukofoges vanished as he leaves the scene.

  As the Necromutants are gone, Rei and her party are gd that the nightmare invasion was over. However, the party can see the damages that the Minotaurs caused as there were many trees being knocked down, ruining the beauty of Euna.

  "Oh man..." Rei said, shaking her head. "Just look at this mess."

  "At least we were able to keep ourselves alive throughout this terrible situation." Mizuki said to her. "It's horrible how much nature has been destroyed. The evil forces should pay for what they've done."

  "That reminds me..." Marie said to everyone. "Are we forgetting something?"

  "What's that?" Sadako asked her.

  "That crazed Necromutant still has the book with Shokei trapped in it. If we don't get the book back from her, we'll never see Shokei again." Marie said to everyone.

  "But even if that Necromutant has the book in her possession, what if she discarded it somewhere in this forest?" Sadako asked.

  "How can you tell?" Marie asked.

  "It's a guess." Sadako said to her. "I bet that the book must have slipped out of her hands and probably dropped the book by accident."

  "Accident or not, I'm hoping that book was not left behind when we were met with a disastrous pgue." Rei said, looking back at the knocked down trees.

  "And...you won't find it around there at that location." A voice called out to the party.

  "Huh?" Rei turned to see that there was someone from above talking to the party.

  "Hehehe...you really want your hands on that book with the Emissary in it right?" Hauntmystic asked.

  "Damn right." Rei said to her. "You better give that book to us you bastard."

  "Oh no! Oh no no nooo!!" Hauntmystic said, putting her hand up as a sign of halt. "I'm not looking for a fight. Besides, I'll give you some hint if you are curious where your leader is."

  "Wh-where's the book you demonic fiend?!" Marie asked her.

  "Right! I was getting to that right away!" Hauntmystic said. "As you can see, I don't have the book on me. I have accidentally dropped the book somewhere in this forest."

  "Figures..." Sadako said.

  "You're lying!" Marie said angrily. "You're pying with us, are you?! Stop lying!"

  "And I am telling you the truth you little midget!" Hauntmystic said back at her. Then, she looks at Shokei's party. "Now then, if you're all lucky enough to find that book, it will be up to all of you if you really want to free your emissary out of that book. Remember, she too is fighting her way to escape the book herself. Ta-ta!"

  The Necromutant disappeared as it leaves the area.

  "So..." Rei said, recalling what she just heard. "Shokei is fighting for her life...inside that book..."

  "Then the book does appear to be cursed." Kichiro said.

  "What could be inside that book?" Saeko asked. "Is there some monster waiting for Shokei?"

  "Whatever it is, we should look for the book within this forest." Rei said.

  "Right. We need to explore further in this forest and hopefully the book is still in one piece." Mizuki said.

  The party agrees and thus they continue into the forest to find the cursed book that Shokei is trapped in.
