John who had his left hand cut off was trying to stop the bleeding. It was a good thing Michel didn't follow up her attack if she continued then it would've been hard for John to survive. While he was stopping the gushing of his blood, John heard the continued booming of explosions. 

'Damn it! This mission is a failure, if only I knew that the doll was this persistent, then I would have done things differently.' 

John seeing the situation turn dire, decided that he should escape first, and try again some other time. He took out a stun grenade and a smoke grenade, he pulled the pin of both grenades using his teeth. Michel saw what he was about to do and threw her halberd at John. Yet John already got used to such speeds and was able to dodge the attack while throwing the grenades at the same time. 

John knew he was too close to the stun grenade that it would've worked on him too, but he needed to take the risk since he was facing an enraged Michel. Even though the two of them were both S rank, their experience and abilities were worlds apart. If he were to fight Michel in her current state, he would die while inflicting little damage on Michel. 

So the moment he was blinded by his own stun grenade, John started running towards the window where he saw Michel enter. Even though he couldn't see at the moment, he could somehow remember the way to get to the window. He just needed to follow the path he remembers, if he fails then its death if he succeeds he could escape with his life intact. 

While John was running, he suddenly ducked as he heard a whooshing sound pass by him. It seems that Michel had attacked, and she was able to pinpoint his exact location. 

'Did the effectivity of the stun grenade wear off?' It was looking bad for John, as he took some distance. His senses were finally coming back to him, as he saw a blurry figure charging right at him. John by instinct took out his guns and started shooting, but it was a bit slower since he had recently lost on arm. 

Even while he was in a state of confusion John's attacks still hit the mark. Yet the blurry figure didn't stop charging at him, once it got close enough John saw Michel about to swing the halberd she was holding. He wanted to evade but knew that he wouldn't make it. The only option he had left was to block the attack. 

John threw three of his guns at Michel trying to disrupt her attack for a bit, but that move failed to achieve its objective as Michel wasn't bothered by it as she swung her halberd down at full force. John had no choice but to lift up his right arm while using his one remaining gun to block the attack. Yet as expected Michel was able to slice through his hand and gun like butter. 

It was at this point John knew he had no more chances. He then same as the ones before him shouted at Michel. 

"All for our be-" John wasn't able to finish what he was about to say when his head was pierced by Michel's halberd. 


"Who the hell cares about what the f*ck you gonna say. Just f*cking shut up and die already." Michel spoke with disdain and irritation. After she confirmed that John wasn't going to explode, she immediately rushed to her daughter's side. 

"Lilitth, everything is alright kaa-chan beat up the bad guy." Michel who looked horrifying just moments ago changed into one with a look of concern. 

Lilitth who lost so much blood from that fight could only respond in a whisper. "I'm okay kaa-chan, thank you for saving me." 

Seeing her daughter look so weak like that made Michel tear up. When Lilitth saw that she weakly raised her hand and wiped the tears of her mother's face. 

"It's alright kaa-chan, it's my fault for being too weak." 

"Of course, it's not your fault Lilitth! You did you're very best and kaa-chan is so proud of you." Michel held onto Lilitth's hand that wiped away her tears. 

While the two were having their moment, Niki who was hiding inside the closet came near. When she saw her best friend stained with blood she couldn't help but cry. She rushed towards Lilitth's side and hugged her best friend. 

"I'm sorry Lilitth, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Niki kept on repeating the words sorry as she tightly hugged Lilitth, who couldn't do anything but simply stroke her best friend's head. Michel who saw that Niki was alright, and confirmed that her daughter isn't in a critical condition stood up ready to kill the remaining intruders. Yet but as she was about to move, she saw the head maid running towards her. 

"Lady Michel!" The head maid saw Michel, and then saw the crying Niki holding the bloodstained Lilitth. When the head maid saw this scene, she quickly figured out what happened. Without any delay she knelt on the ground, her forehead touching the floor. 

"Forgive me lady Michel, we've already annihilated the remaining intruders, but we weren't able to defend Lilitth ojou-sama. That is my failure as the head maid, and I will take responsibility. I hope that you would pardon my subordinates, for it is solely my mistake as their commander. If you wish for it I will gladly take my life as repentance." 

The head maid then pulled out her gun and pointed it at her head, but before she could pull the trigger, Michel was able to stop her. 

"There is no need for that, you did the best you could. Send me a detailed report of the casualties later, for now, I want you to double-check if there are any more rats left." 

The head maid stood up and saluted Michel, before heading out to fulfill her duties. Once Michel was done talking to the head maid, she noticed that Niki was no standing right in front of her. 

"What is it Niki, is there something wrong? Are you hurt anywhere?" 

"Auntie Michel, I have a request." Niki looked at Michel with eyes burning with determination. 

"What is it?" Michel responded with a smile on her face, trying to make the situation less tense. 

"I want you to teach me, how to become a merc." If Lyner saw this scene he would laugh at how absurd it was. This event was exact same way Niki's own brother ask Lyner to teach him how to become a merc.
