[Black Butler] Noah's Ark

This blizzard has been falling continuously for several weeks. Looking up, there is a gray and gloomy sky with densely packed clouds. It seems that this kind of weather will last for another five or six days.

"Hurry up time... Hurry up..." Sylvieron muttered, leaning against the cave with her arms folded and staring at her pocket watch.

I have been on business trips so many times, but this is the first time I have encountered such bad weather! The first few days after I arrived in this area, there were still small snowflakes, which is very beautiful. Who would have thought that slowly... gradually... until the end... !

In the middle of the night, she was sheltering from the cold in a certain cave in the mountains, and her good colleague William, maybe sitting by the stove at this moment drinking hot tea, maybe enjoying a steaming soup bath, or already nestled in a comfortable bed. Warm big bed now!

She is so miserable.

----remember----

"William..." Sylvielen retracted her extended fingers, and slowly closed the door, trying to call out to the man who was reading a book comfortably by the fireplace in a pitiful tone.

William stopped turning the pages of the book, looked up at Sylvellen, wanted to laugh, but there was still no expression on his face, and asked lightly: "What's wrong?"

"It's cold outside...can you..."

"No."

"Seven minutes?"

"No."

"... Rigid." Sylvellen muttered softly.

"Cough..." There were only two people in the room. Although she murmured softly, William could still hear her clearly. She closed the book helplessly, and William patiently taught: "The god of death will wait half an hour before the start of the recycling work." Arrive at work, so..."

"Hey! You don't need to say it, I know it...!" Sylvie quickly raised a hand to signal the other party to stop, and finished William's next line in one breath: "In order to see more clearly the process of human birth, old age, sickness and death , and watch their souls not to be devoured by demons first."

"Now that you know everything." William looked at the clock on the wall, and then looked at Sylvia again, "Time is running out."

"Got it, got it, let's go." Turning around quickly, pulling the door, "Bang!" The door slammed.

——————————

. . . . . .

"It's really... What the hell kind of weather is it these days!" With a wave of her wrist, Sylvia retracted her scythe and put it on her shoulders. She tilted her neck to take notes, then hurriedly left the forest and headed towards the warm house at high speed.

Entering the residence with a wind, frost and cold air, there is a feeling that the whole body is about to be melted.

The firewood in the stove was burning vigorously, and the 'civil servant' who was still sitting on the sofa reading a book before going out should have gone to the bedroom to sleep by now.

Even the god of death still needs to rest at night.

The bathtub was filled with hot water, and after running in, my hands, feet and nerves were relaxed. "It's so comfortable to take a bath in winter—" Sylvie put her arms on both sides of the bathtub, exhaling slowly...

As soon as the bathroom door was opened, water vapor spread out first, and a tall woman walked out with heavy steps.

Sylvia was half confused, half opened her eyes, took out the pocket watch in the inside pocket of the coat, and murmured: "It's already past 3 o'clock in the morning...-.-I can't do it anymore, I can't do it anymore!"

Then, watching her slowly climb onto the bed, and then lazily get into the quilt "(doze off) ah~~ Anyway...tomorrow is two people's...recycling work...the amount...just... let William...in other words, this bed The quilt is quite warm...~zZ”

(O~K! Our heroine is asleep)

――END――

(END?! Are you sure? Don't you need to describe the person standing next to him who obviously has a stinky face and wears glasses?)

William was woken up by the sound of the door opening when Sylvia came in. Unfortunately, he couldn't see anything clearly without glasses. He reached out sideways to pick up the glasses on the bedside table and put them on before he saw who was coming, "Sy Velen? You..." The room is directly opposite this room.

It's just that the other party didn't hear others talking at all. After pulling off the tie, he continued to take off his coat and threw it on the sofa, and took off his boots and leaned aside.With disheveled hair, he stepped barefoot on the plush thick carpet towards the bathroom, and then closed the door.

The whole process didn't stop, judging by her current state of mind...she really didn't realize that she went to the wrong room at all.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom, and the sound of water stopped after a while, and then the sound of Sylvia soaking in the bathtub.

After a while, the room became quiet again, and the second hand of the watch could still be heard faintly, "I'll wake up after washing, let's wait until she comes out." 'William thought so, so he picked up the book again and looked at it seriously...

How could it be possible to calm down!The book in my hand hasn't turned a page since I opened it, and it's really inexplicable to hear the sound of my heart beating faster!

"Bang" closed the book with both hands, "Really, why haven't you come out for so long, did you fall asleep in the bathroom?" '

Just thinking about it, the person in the bathroom finally came out, but looking at her now... she is more confused than when she just came back!He also looked at his pocket watch and muttered something.Then he half-closed his eyes and walked towards this direction. William pushed his glasses unnaturally and said, "Hey, Sylvia, your room...!"

The other party lifted the quilt, lay down, and covered the quilt without stopping, and William moved to the other side of the bed when she lifted the quilt, and got out of the bed from the other side while she was lying down, standing silently. On the side, "If you meant to...".

Looking at Sylvia's tired sleeping face, William could only sigh deeply, "I really can't do anything about you. I'll do tomorrow's work, but this is only one time." Unpaid overtime work is his last resort. do not want to do.

At this time, Sylvia had already entered a deep sleep. She seemed very at ease and at ease with this environment, and she was not at all wary of her surroundings. "It seems that I have forgotten the previous sermons, and I have to remind them tomorrow."

Before going out, he accidentally glanced at the person on the bed, seeing that her frowning sleeping appearance had not changed since she was a child, and William closed the door gently: "It's hard work, good night."

In this temporarily rented duplex double storey residence, only the firewood burning in the fireplace crackled.

**********

As night falls, tonight is the finishing work of this business trip, and the rare wind and snow have stopped.

On the edge of a field far away from the small town, there is an abandoned church. There are two men in suits and leather shoes standing on the roof, silently watching what happened below.

Three men carried two unconscious women, looking around with their heads and tails stretched out, and then entered the church.

"Pfft—these three bastards are the vampires that people in the town have been passing around these days?" Sylvie couldn't help laughing: "If Uncle Dracula found out, he would definitely cry. "

Standing aside, William raised his finger and pushed his glasses, in stark contrast to Sylvie, who was wiping away tears while laughing, he sighed and opened the document, and said lightly, "Is it so funny? I really don't understand your smile more and more."

"Isn't it funny? Oh, then stop laughing."

Turning serious in a second, Sylvia took the file, "So these days we have been recycling those women who died due to excessive blood loss, and people who increased our workload. The source of everything is them? . . Cut, I'll go and see .” After closing the document and handing it to William again, Sylvia twisted her neck, moved her knuckles, and was about to jump down.

"You are... Sylvia, wait until the god of death can't intervene, don't increase the workload." Judging from your warm-up movements, it is obvious that you are going to go down to do something, William cursed.

"Hey, I know~ I won't cause trouble, I really just go down and have a look, I won't mess around with you here." Sylvia smiled and narrowed her eyes, just like the crescent moon behind her at this time, "Besides, Ordinary humans can't see the god of death who has hidden his own state. Don't worry William, I'll go down first." After speaking, he disappeared on the roof.

William held his forehead speechlessly: "Oh, really, if you really want to make me feel at ease, you will stay by my side honestly." Looking at the watch on his wrist, "It's almost time, but now... Maybe a few minutes earlier."

But all along, as long as Sylvieren doesn't make any big moves, it's okay to turn a blind eye.

. . . . . .

"Boring." More than an hour later, Sylvielen yawned, leaned tiredly on the small podium directly in front of him, propped his chin and muttered: "I thought I was using some high-end equipment to drain other people's blood." Blood..." Looking contemptuously at the three men below, their hands trembling, the medical blood pumping equipment drained the fresh blood from one of the women bit by bit, and then kept the bags of plasma well.

Seeing the woman's complexion getting stiffer and her breathing getting weaker and weaker, "5, 4, 3, 2, 1, hoo~ let me see, Roy Shana, 25 years old, died of excessive blood loss, no notes .Now all that's left is...well."

After closing the list, Sylvan took out the pocket watch from the inner pocket of the suit to check the time, and at this moment, a dagger was thrown at Sylvan's position.

"Hey! When did that woman come here!" One of the bearded men suddenly pointed at someone on the podium and shouted. This sudden move startled the other two men too.

Sylvie lightly clamped the blade of the dagger with two fingers, and said with a smile: "How dangerous, throwing such a sharp object at others suddenly. Oh, you go ahead, don't worry about me. Don't look defensive, I have no malicious intentions, and I will return this dagger to you."

After speaking, Sylvielen threw the dagger to the audience again.The handle of the dagger knocked the blood-drawing syringe belt aside, the blade was firmly inserted into the crude instrument, and said without sincerity: "Oh, I'm sorry, did I break your instrument, uncle?"

William, who was standing outside the church door, closed his eyes with a headache and rubbed his temples.

The three men in the church stood up, took out knives from other places, and stared at Sylvia viciously: "You woman!"

The three of them rely on this broken instrument to draw blood to make some money. It just so happens that the people in the town are very superstitious, saying that a vampire did it, but this woman!hateful!

Sylvan smiled, and glanced at the pale woman lying on the bench intentionally or unintentionally, and didn't pay attention to the three of them at all: "What? The uncles all acted like they were going to kill me. Look. But as an ordinary human being, you can see me, which means that you will soon..."

"Hmph!" The three said with angrily laughing, "Woman, don't you know that it's best not to go out at night, and you're going to such a remote place, you should die here with those two women!" One of them finished speaking. , the three of them rushed forward together, vigorously swiping the knife in their hands and slashing at the woman who didn't seem to know why.

Sylvie dodged the attacks of the three calmly, her long hair dancing with her figure, it was even more furious that the three had sore arms but they didn't even touch the woman's hair.

"Seeing that you are panting so badly, do you want to rest for a while before continuing?" Sylvia said, her figure had already moved to the unconscious woman and picked her up.

"So I planned to save this woman. But none of you want to leave!" As he said that, the man slashed at her again, and now the woman is still hugging someone, absolutely this time! !Congratulations, this time one of them finally shaved a hair of that woman, about 5 centimeters?

"Haha, let's see how you can escape!" The three "trapped" Sylvia by the wall.

"Tsk." Sylvie raised her eyebrows, but now she is a little confused, why those three people seem to be very happy? "Why should I run away?" Ignoring the three people who were about a meter away from her, she looked at the open-air ceiling about 20 meters above the ground, and then moved her feet a little. "But it's enough not to be discovered by William."

There was no need for a run-up, and at the same time as the three of them rushed forward with all their strength, Sylvia jumped lightly, holding a thin unconscious woman in her hands, and left the church directly from the ceiling.

......

In the quiet alley, there was a knock on the door. The old man in the house asked questions, but no one outside the house answered.

The door opened slowly, and the people in the room exclaimed after seeing the person lying at the door through the gap: "Oh! God bless!"

The old woman quickly opened the door, helped the unconscious woman up with great effort, and called a few names to the inner room. Four children ran out of the room, one of the older children was holding the woman's head. On the other side, several people entered the room in such a crowd.

Sylvia folded her arms and leaned against the alley in silence. After taking a last look at the dark alley, she turned and left.

**********

Seeing that there were only four corpses left in the empty church, William sighed again: "It ended up like this."

After recovering the revolving lanterns of the three men, William raised his head and looked in the direction where Sylvia left. He opened the list again, glanced at the woman's information, and sighed. Finally, he stamped on the list with the words After the stamp of 'cancellation' was stamped, the list disappeared as if it had evaporated. This work was finally over and it was time to go back.
