I readied myself and put my hand on the handle of the door.
Please be safe... Diana.
Right now what's most important to me is Diana's safety and what comes after that is our escape.
I pushed the door revealing the office room with bookshelves on the side, an ornate floor and wooden dark ceiling with a chandelier, and in the middle of the room stood a table and there I saw three men who were talking to one another.
I looked at them and Immediately noticed their identity
The person who is behind the table is the master of this house, on his right is the old head butler and the one on the left is a man wearing light armor and also a sheathed sword hanging on his waist.
But enough of them. They are not important. They are not my priority.
Where is she?
I scanned the room and there I saw Diana on the side, Lying down and curled up on the ground with her hands cradling her stomach.
...
Diana!!!!
Anger rose up within me. If she is curled up like that then that means they hurted her.
You pest!!
I took a step forward making my footsteps create a sound. The sound caught the attention of the three men who were just talking a second ago.
"Hmmm? "
The three men stopped talking and turned their heads towards my direction. Their eyes squinted in confusion and then alertness seeing an unfamiliar face in front of them.
"Who are you?"
The butler asked me suspiciously. And following that was the soldier-like man who suddenly widened his eyes as if realizing something before taking out the sword from the sheath on his waist.
"Wait, that's the intruder! "
As the soldier-like man said that, Diana raised her head and looked towards my direction. She widened her eyes when she saw me and I could see the tears streaming down her cheeks. She then expressed a guilty expression as if she did something wrong and spoke weakly.
"I am sorry….Doll-san…"
Seeing that expression made me feel angry at myself more for being so slow to get back.
"Stay put Diana…."
I then bent down prepared myself to launch myself and as I did that the soldier-like man in front of me moved.
"I will take care of this intruder, stand back!!!"
The man shouted and he positioned himself in front of the two men with his sword pointing towards me.
Since Diana is on the side, I will need to get past this soldier and these two pests behind him. So that only means that I will need to fight them or kill them to be exact. Well that's what I am supposed to do especially since I have a score to settle with this so-called father of Diana.
I would gladly take the responsibility of wiping his existence off this world. Heck if there is a place called hell here then I would like to personally escort him to that place.
I would personally pay the devil to make this man and also that woman pay the price of what they did to Diana.
But right now, this so-called father of hers should be thankful that I am in this current situation of needing to do things quickly because if not….
I will take my sweet time…
Torturing and killing you!!
I then launch myself with both of my blades ready to slash down the opponent in front of me.
The opponent firmly held his sword and smirked.
Why are you making that face?
I am annoyed seeing that expression on his face but that look would disappear anyways if I kill him.
"Really? You are planning to take me down with this amateur move?"
Hmmmph, This soon to be corpse has a prideful mouth huh. I will shut you up.
I then striked and he blocked it with his sword.
You fool ... .even if you try to block my blade with your sword, I am sure your sword will break just like the others.
I pushed my blade more forcefully trying to overpower the man. And the man receiving this blow didn't bulge, he just smiled and deflected my blade to the side.
What!!?
His sword didn't break!!?
Seeing my blade being deflected was something I didn't expect. And in that moment, I felt a sense of danger.
Get back….I need to get back!!
I am in danger, I am not in a good spot. Especially now that I lost my balance and I am within his sword reach.
I quickly jumped back to create a safe distance from him but he didn't let me fully get away, he chased and tried to slash his sword towards me aiming for my left shoulder.
I hastily use my right blade to block the strike and when both of our blades clashed I then create a momentum trying to use my left blade to strike. The man noticed and spoke in an amused tone of voice.
"You are surprisingly troublesome."
As the man realized what I was trying to do. He jumped back, saving him as my left blade hit the air where his head was a while ago.
...
This man…..
He is strong.
Tsk
I inwardly clicked my tongue knowing that I am now facing a strong enemy whose blade I can't cut for some reason. He is also nimble and smart so I should expect that this will not be an easy fight.
I looked at his blade and then his hand holding the sword. After that I looked at his body that is well protected behind the sword pointing towards me.
Hmmm…
There is no easy opening for me…
I then looked towards his legs.
If he is nimble and smart, can I just slice his leg off to make him fall? If he loses his mobility then he will be immobilized. I can kill him after that.
Yeah…Let's try that.
I then launched myself towards him and just like before, I swung my right blade in which he blocked with his sword.
"Heh, to think you are trying to do the same thing. Foolish."
The man provoked me, making me more annoyed.
I then used my left blade to try thrusting it towards his abdomen.
And as if seeing my move again, he leaned and deflected my right blade to his left.
Guuuu….You move a lot like a worm!
But I am not done yet!!
I turned my left leg into a blade and quickly twisted my body trying to create a momentum for my kick slash.
"What the!!!"
Seeing the incoming blade aiming towards his legs. He tried to step back as quickly as possible to avoid it.
Got you now! You squishy worm!
His body leaned more to the side as he avoided my blade revealing the two individuals behind him. And when the two people behind him came to my view. I saw something that I didn't expect.
The father of Diana, held an object in his hand and it was pointing in my direction. His hand position is similar to what I see in the movies back in my old world.
That hand position ... With an object which has a circle dark hole on the end pointing towards me.
This feels familiar.
!!?
It's…
A gun!!
I widened my eyes realizing that I am in great danger, especially now that he has a clear shot aiming towards me.
Shit!!
"Doll-san!!! Look out!!!"
Diana shouted my name and what came after that was the sound of panic.
*BANG*
The gun fired, followed by spit of yellow ignited gunpowder from the hole and the smoke coming out from the barrel.
The bullet hit my right shoulder making me recoil back to the force of the impact and creating a bullet hole that pierced my body.
I stumbled back and was stunned realizing that I was shot.
I immediately looked down to my body and saw the bullet hole that clearly indicated that I was shot.
...
It didn't hurt, but the feeling of seeing myself on the end of that barrel and being shot shook me to my core.
"You are still standing??"
I looked back to the soldier who was looking at me with a surprised expression on his face. And behind him is the father, who was now reloading his gun which made me see the model of the gun which is very similar to the model of a flintlock.
"How the hell are you still standing? You monster."
The soldier asked me with curiousness and confusion on his face.
...
…
Why am I still standing?
A question I already know the answer to,
If I didn't have this doll body, I would've fallen to the ground already. Wait no, I would not have reached this point without this body.
...
Ahhh...
I sighed to myself.
Why aren't things going my way?
I thought I already have a good plan, but every time I am about to successfully do it there will be a variable that will ruin it.
So annoying….I am so annoyed.
I fixed my stance and slightly bent my knees making it ready for whatever move I might launch next.
...
I calmed myself down and assessed the situation I am facing.
Right now I have two enemies that pose a threat. The major one is this soldier and the other is the so-called father of Diana who is supporting this soldier with his gun.
I need to kill this soldier but his skills are good, paired with his support from behind. I need an opening where I can use it so that I can finally kill this man and enable me to charge towards the father and also kill him and then finally get to Diana.
...
"Commander!!!"
As I was thinking, I then heard a group of footsteps behind me and there was a group of armed guards.
"Our weapons are gone!! and our treasury is - Wait who is this!?"
The man who came to the door saw me was confused, and behind him were the other guards who looked at me with questions on their heads.
...
Again…
More trouble appeared.
I sighed again, knowing that the person who is now cornered is me as I am both surrounded on both sides.
...
I need to fight them all off, I don't have anyone to save us. I can't ask for help.
If I fail here…It's game over…
To think I will die again or suffer again just after I was just reincarnated as a doll.
I had finally had a chance to live another life after a life that casted me away.
I had finally had a chance to make a different life but will it be cutted off just like this?
I had so many plans, to live an enjoyable life, to live a carefree life with Diana…
You know…back in my past life.
I always tried to be a good girl, to be a daughter that receives the attention and love of my parents.
I always avoided trouble, I always made sure that my actions would not have bad consequences.
I studied hard and became a top student with honors…
I did all that to get the attention of my parents, to get love and care from them…To live a life that has good memories and happiness…
But…that hope didn't happen.
Sigh…
Is it really that unfair for me to get that future? To get that sweet release from the restraint and regrets in my life?
...
…
Ahhh…
I looked up and closed my eyes. I listened to the mumbles, the breathing and the distant voices around me.
Haha…
A chuckle erupted from my mouth as I remembered all the absurdity in my life…
You know what…If this is the end.
Maybe I should just not think anymore…
I am tired of thinking…of being stressed…
Maybe I should just let loose, just do anything reckless and not think about the consequences.
I opened my eyes again and looked towards the soldier behind me. After that, I looked at the soldier who is actually the commander and the so-called father of Diana behind him.
"Kill her!!"
After a while of silence from me, the so-called father finally gave his order to overwhelm me with numbers to get rid of me.
"You heard the master!! Get her!!"
"ARGHHHHH!!"
I looked back towards them again and chuckled.
This is all absurd, so stupid…
I sighed again and readied myself to fight.
If you think you can just capture me or kill me here…Well consider that again.
Because right now.
"I will paint this whole room. With all of your blood HAHAHAHA!!!"
I finally gave up thinking and laughed. I charged towards them with both blades stretched out from my arms.
I then sliced the man leading the charge. I swung my right blade aiming for the neck and sliced it off, making the man leading the charge be beheaded. But I am not done, using that momentum I spun around and used my left blade to cut the next approaching man diagonally.
And again as I cut the man, my right arm finally made its way back again to target the next incoming person.
I spun around not even bothering to look at all the people here.
I don't care anymore. I will just kill every enemy here. I can just let myself loose. Besides since I am surrounded, that only means that whatever I will hit is only my enemies.
If there is blade going to block it well it will be sliced off, if a person tries to shield himself with his arms, well it will be sliced off as well as his body in half.
Ohh, my blade coincidentally aiming for your head without me realizing? Well just be headless!!
Ohh my blade is coming for your lower body well just let it be cut!!
Your arms? Sliced!
Your leg? Sliced!
Your torso? Sliced!
Your neck? Sliced!
Your whole body? Well say goodbye to it! Sliced!
Everything was sliced, painting and decorating the room with blood, body parts, and corpses. The clean room that was supposed to be orderly and elegant is now in complete mess as people slam onto the shelves and side tables making the object fall down. Weapons flew around as they were released from the hands of the people I killed.
Some of the weapons also were being kicked and some weapons were tossed and thrown towards me but I effortlessly avoided it causing it to fly towards the area of the so-called father of Diana but again they were deflected by the commander making the weapons go to the side.
I closed my eyes again as I continued to spin around.
The room filled with the screams and cries of my victims like a concert of agony and despair for those who are present.
A harmonious piece of horror, pain and death.
"ARGHHH!!!!"
"NOOO!!!!"
"HAVE MERCY!!!!"
"YOU MONSTER!!!"
HAHAHAH!!!
I laughed as I effortlessly killed everybody around me.
Ahhh I love this feeling! The feeling of being unrestrained!
The feeling of freedom!
Yes…Ahhh
It's nice! HAHAHA
I opened my eyes again and sighed a breath of relief and slowed my spinning movement gradually into a stop.
I tilted my head to the side and smiled before fixing my head back again and bending down aiming for the next target that would catch my eye.
One man locked eyes with me and he was shocked with fear, his eyes beginning to tear.
"No….P-please!!"
Begging? Well nah don't wish for it!
I launched myself towards him and sliced him with both of my arms creating a 'X' shaped slice on his body.
And he fell into four quarters of himself HAHA!
I then looked towards my other targets. Fufufu next one!
I launched myself again. Killing them all one by one.
If two were standing near to one another then they will be both cut together like a two in one slice package!
Kill! Kill! Kill!
...
"Laaaaa, laa, laaaaaa"
I then hummed a tune
And with that tune, I sync my movements to the melody, the swing of my blade and sound it makes as it makes contact with the flesh and weapons of my enemies synchronized with the beat and tempo of my tune.
Let me enjoy this more…
Let me taste this feeling of freedom more.
And as I continued to dance I saw Diana's so-called father alongside his two henchmen looking at me with a terrifying and horrified expression on their face.
And I also glanced at Diana's expression in which she looked very surprised.
But…enough about that.. I am enjoying this.
And just like this, the carnage continues.
