4★ Mini Yurika

Fire Mini Yurika

It seems like many are wondering who I am.

Accept my generosity and allow me to introduce myself. *laugh*

I am a Servant of Chaos.

My job is to meddle in the business of the slaves of order, all for the purpose of bringing change to Latecia, a place filled with hypocrisy.

It never gets old, seeing the troubled faces of those hypocrites as I bring about change to this world.

Dealing with the minions of order is as boring as eating a piece of cake.

But Seira, that navigator or whatever, and that Otherworlder are just the worst!

Those two have been messing with my plans recently.

That which is sealed in my right hand… If only I could use the power of darkness to awaken 「it」 from its slumber…

And show those do-gooders true despair.

But my Master wants to wait, so all I can do is try to be patient.

However, when my Master permits it, my power of darkness will 「scourge」 the realm of Latecia.

*maniacal laugh*

“Yurika, what’s with that creepy smile?”

“Ah, Master, it’s nothing.”

“I told you to call me by my name when it’s just the two of us.”

“How can I…! How can I dare to say your noble name!”

“Like I said, nobility means nothing between us. Come on, say my name.”

“*gasp* Ka… Ka… Ugh…!”

“Almost there, Yurika!”

“Ka… Ugh… Master Kaz…!”

“Haha, well done. Wait, your face is all red. Was it that hard to say?”

“Ugh, forget it!”

Light Mini Yurika

“W-Where am I?”

“Welcome! I’ve been waiting for you to arrive.”

“W-Who are you?!”

“I am your navigator and your personal assistant. The power of chaos is strong in Latecia, so the goddess Stella herself chose you to fight back against it!”

“The last thing I remember is falling down a cliff after being chased by my father. Am I in another world now?”

“Odd, the pendant of order is supposed to be blue, but your pendant is…”

“My pendant is red…”

“Red is the color of chaos. It seems like we summoned the wrong soul to Latecia.”

Even here, I’m not welcome..

My family shunned me for my ability to create blue roses instead of red ones like the rest of them. It seems Latecia is also a world where you’re worth is determined by what’s on the outside.

At that moment, when depression was taking over me, a man with a hair of gold came to me.

“Here you are. I’ve been looking for you. The red pendant…”

“Who are you?! Not a step closer, or I’ll show you true fear with the power of the Black Dragon that lies dormant in my right hand!”

“I can’t believe it! You even know how to handle the power of darkness? Hahaha, that’s perfect.”

“W-What?”

“My name is Kaz. I’m an irregular of Latecia, just like you.”

“…”

“Welcome to Latecia. I’ve been waiting for you.”

“Yurika, you’re the first change I brought upon Latecia by using my powers to affect the rift of chaos. Your presence means a lot to me.”

“Such kindness…! Master, you opened my eyes to the worth of my existence. I feel the very same way.”

“Regardless, please stop plastering your walls with photos of me taken without my consent. And stop putting dolls that look like me next to my bed.”

“Huh?! But…! I must take your photo to record your every moment, and I made those dolls to show you my gratitude!”

“And I accept, just not with all that extra stuff.”

“But it’s not enough! Your photographs, the dolls that look like you… I could have hundreds, no, thousands of them and it still won’t be enough to express how grateful I am!”

“Yurika, we call that being obsessed.”

“How could you put it that way…!”

Dark Mini Yurika

“Yurika, what do you think of when you look at the arena after the Astromon League is over?

“That I should try harder to interfere with it next time? That’s pretty much it. What about you, Master Kaz?”

“The red souls bled from injured Astromons. The blood-red arena… it’s violent and cruel. But, if you look at it from a distance, it looks beautiful, like crushed rose petals. Isn’t that ironic?”

“Red roses… Do you like roses, Master Kaz?”

“Who, me? I’m not much of a flower person.”

“I see…”

“Ah, but I like your blue roses. Back in my world, there was a myth that blue roses can grant you a wish.”

“I didn’t know blue roses could mean good things.”

“Your grace, have you heard about the abandoned daughter of the Lancaster family?”

“Indeed I have. I heard she’s the black sheep of the family. Yurika, right?”

“Yes, your grace. The duke of Lancaster imprisoned her in a castle, but somehow, she managed to learn black magic all by herself.”

“A Lancaster who can’t even create red roses, their family’s symbol, was able to master black magic?”

“She didn’t even inherit the family’s black hair. I fear she might cause complications. Shall I deal with her, your grace?”

“The duke of Lancaster is a devout believer. Since black magic is blasphemy, her father will deal with her properly.”

A rundown castle in the Lancaster estate.

In the deepest corners of the castle, a sort of darkness was waiting for someone.

It resembled black smoke and looked like a living shadow. Without a tangible form and barely keeping itself together, it approached the girl staring blankly at the ceiling.

It infused her with its energy, and taught her how to protect herself through the power of darkness.

It must have wanted her to enact revenge upon the world in its stead, for she was a mirror image of itself.
