That beautiful face was twisted and deformed like paper lit by fire.

The girl's clothes turned into blazing flames, and the hand holding Charlotte's hand shone with a scarlet luster like magma.

The waterproof gloves quickly softened in the scalding heat and gave off a pungent smell.

"You... are not Alice-senpai! Let me go!"

Wanting to pull her hand back, Charlotte almost used all her strength, but the other person's hand was like an iron pincer, and she could not break free no matter how hard she tried.

The guy disguised as Alice revealed his true face. His face was ugly and evil, and his face was covered with red lumps, like rocks burned red by fire.

The surface of the lump is covered with cracks, as dense as a spider web. The scarlet pupils are as cruel as snakes.

Charlotte dared to say that this was the ugliest monster she had ever seen in her life!

The fire demon's hands burned through the waterproof gloves and burned the girl's white fingers.

With their fingers connected to their hearts, the severe pain caused her body to convulse, and she couldn't help but let out a low cry.

That ugly lava-like face was getting closer and closer... The fire demon opened its mouth with a maniacal smile, revealing its fangs that were as thick and long as fingers.

He could easily punch a hole in her head. He endured the pain and touched the wand in his sleeve, his fingers trembling constantly because of the pain.

"Want to resist? It's too late..."

The fire demon's tone was somewhat mocking.

He got close to the girl's face, stretched out his lava-hot tongue, and licked his fangs.

Suddenly there was a soft sound at the door, the sound of electricity cutting through the air.

The expression on the Fire Demon's face changed, and he wanted to take his hand back, but his movement was still half a beat too slow.

A flash of sword light cut off its arm instantly.

"Ahhhhhh!"

Screaming and retreating, the fire demon's ugly face became even more distorted due to pain.

Flames spurted out from the broken incision, burning the wall into darkness.

Pulling Charlotte behind her, Alice took a step forward. The dazzling electric light in the bathroom was as bright as day.

The girl swung the second sword with her backhand!

The sword light brought lightning and tore the air apart. Our bodies were split into two, screaming and exploding with two bangs, turning into countless sparks and disappearing into the air...

Holding the injured hand and looking at the other person's back, Charlotte said gratefully: "Senior, thank you for saving me!"

The girl turned her back and shook her head slightly. Alice's eyes were covered by her bangs.

The silhouette in the mirror, lips pursed tightly.

"senior……"

Charlotte stretched out a hand, and she seemed to understand the other person's emotions: "I was just a little injured, you don't have to feel guilty. Senior came in time!"

Faced with the comfort from her schoolmate, Alice frowned even more tightly, her hand hanging by her side clenching the sword tightly.

Taking a deep breath to adjust her emotions, she turned around and came to the school girl's side.

"Come out with me and treat your wound." Alice said with a smile, but her smile looked far-fetched.

This was indeed a forced smile. If it had been slower, she really wouldn't have been able to see her schoolgirl.

It was precisely because of the slack I gave myself that the Fire Demon took advantage of it. How could I not blame myself?

Looking at her bandaged hand, Charlotte smiled happily: "Your craftsmanship is very good!"

Alice was not in the mood to joke: "If possible, I really hope I won't bandage you in the future."

Seeing the serious expression on her senior's face, Charlotte rarely became serious and asked, "Does your senior come to my house this time with any secrets?"

Originally, Alice did not intend to tell the truth.

But now is different from before, the fire demon has come to the door. The victim who is being targeted needs to know the truth about this matter.

Looking into each other's eyes, Alice asked in a low voice:

"Do you remember the fire incident in District 9?"

Charlotte nodded seriously: "It happened not long ago, and I was a witness."

"You are number one on the list of witnesses to the magic meeting."

Sitting on the chair in the study room, Alice looked directly into Charlotte's eyes and said solemnly: "The fire demon's target is not the Ninth School District, their real target is you!"

After receiving this news, Charlotte looked a little stunned.

God knows where she offended the fire demon?

Why are those ridiculously ugly guys chasing me?

"I don't have a fortune, I'm not a powerful magician, I don't possess a rare treasure, I don't have a physique that attracts monsters...Why are those guys targeting me?"

Scratching her head and ears, Charlotte was puzzled.

The girl hit the table with some irritation, and soon felt the pain from her fingers to her heart, and took a breath of air:

"Have you made a mistake? It hurts!"

"I don't know that either."

Alice shook her head slightly and whispered: "It's best not to be alone during this period of time. I will stay here to protect you tonight."

Living alone in the forest, although you are free and at ease, there are also hidden dangers that cannot be ignored.

"Sure enough, it's because of this incident that Senior Alice came to stay at my house!"

Nodding in sudden realization, looking at Alice opposite thoughtfully, Charlotte took a sip of hot coffee.

Warm coffee makes your heart warm.

Alice did not lower her head to look at the Adventurer's Notes on the table. The hand on the table was clenched into a fist. Alice sincerely apologized:

"Sorry, I didn't tell you about it at first."

"It's not too late to tell me now."

Charlotte shrugged and said in a relaxed tone:

"Speaking of which, senior saved my life again. I'm grateful to you before it's too late. How could you be angry over this little thing?"

At this point, pause slightly.

She looked into Alice's eyes, patted the table with her good hand, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously:

"My safety from now on will be entrusted to you! Alice-senpai!"

Even when she knew her life was in danger, she could still show an optimistic smile. Such a strong character made Alice slightly moved.

Nodding deeply, Alice made a serious promise word for word: "Well, I will definitely try my best to protect your safety."

Looking at the bandaged hand, it is always inconvenient to hold a book with one hand.

Charlotte simply lay down on the table, put her injured hand on it, supported her chin with the other hand, looked at Alice and said:

"Senior, I want to hear your story!"

She is very interested in this topic. She has always been curious about Alice-senpai's past.

"Then I'll satisfy your request." Alice agreed readily, picked a few stories about traveling to another world, and told the other party the exciting parts.

He has experienced a lot over the years and has more stories than he can tell in one night.

And every story is exciting and interesting.

Charlotte listened with great interest.

Time is always short when you are happy. In a blink of an eye, it is time to sleep.

Charlotte had a large bed, which was enough for the two of them to sleep together. Alice had no intention of sleeping, she sat on the bed like a straight sword, holding a wand in her arms.

Like a dutiful knight, guarding the king.

Charlotte turned sideways and said softly to her: "If you are sleepy, let's sleep together, Senior Alice?"

Alice, who was sitting upright on the bed, shook her head slightly: "You go to sleep first, I'm not sleepy now. I'll go to sleep when I am."

Then they said good night to each other.

Perhaps because there was someone by her side, perhaps because she felt satisfied after listening to the story, Charlotte fell asleep quickly.

The living room of the villa is very dimly lit.
