"Well......."

Listening to Shinobu Oshino's words, even though he didn't know where the other side led..., Leo subconsciously felt that if he fell in, he might never be able to get out for the rest of his life.

Time, which had paused for 10 seconds, began to flow again. The "King of Despair," who had just come to his senses after the freeze was lifted, immediately sensed something was wrong. It felt as if it were inside a giant toilet, with the black hole below frantically pulling and tugging at its soul.

"This is! The 'Dark Realm,' damn it—You vampire king, you bastard!!"

The "King of Despair" instantly realized where the portal beneath him led. He cursed angrily and struggled desperately. If he fell into that place, even the Thirteen Kings of Another World would not be able to get out.

The closer it got to the center of the portal, the stronger the attraction became. But at least "King of Despair" wasn't too bad off. As it was using its own strength to escape away from the center of gravity, something despairing happened.

"Remember and pay the price for betraying me!"

At Shinobu Oshino's final command, the absolute order of the "Vampire King" was issued once again. Unable to resist the "King's" command, the Blood Realm Familiars who were close to the King of Despair swarmed forward. They were the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"Damn it! Is this what despair is...? I never thought that I, the 'King of Despair,' would actually experience despair firsthand! Hahaha!!"

As its form was continuously devoured by the "Dark Domain," the "King of Despair" was about to fall irreversibly into the abyss that even the thirteen kings of the other world could despair from. However, at this final moment, it laughed maniacally.

"This time you've won, Leonardo Watch! You've defeated me, 'Despair,' on behalf of humanity, but... you will ultimately face something far more terrifying than Despair—hahahaha!!"

"That sir...that sir...it has its eye on you!"

In his final, frantic murmurs, the King of Despair uttered words that sent chills down Leo's spine. He watched as the Thirteen Kings of this other world completely fell into the "Dark Realm," and the portal vanished... Yet, Leo still felt a deep-seated panic, a negative emotion far exceeding despair that surged into his mind.

"Foolish servant... Perhaps this time things really are serious..."

Shinobu Oshino, whose expression was also rather unpleasant, was held tightly in Leo's arms, but she didn't resist or struggle, showing any displeasure. She simply spoke in a very worried tone:

"An even more terrifying being has its eyes on you..."

"......"

They don't even dare to directly utter the name of that being. As long as someone calls upon its existence by name, that being can hear it, and at that moment, all you can do is congratulate yourself... you're doomed!

Having defeated the "King of Despair" and averted the crisis that would lead to a second "Great Collapse" for Helsaremz Lot, Leo couldn't manage a smile. He could only carry Shinobu back into the sky, exiting the "Eternal Void" and returning to the ground.

On the other hand, the Blood Realm's retinue in the "Eternal Void" suffered heavy losses due to an undeserved calamity, but seeing that it was their own "King," none of them dared to complain. After all, the existence of the "Vampire King" was such an unreasonable situation... The suppression from his rank could absolutely command them.

Those Blood Realm Families could only be thankful that they themselves hadn't died... The Blood Realm Families who died were just unlucky, and no one would consider courting death to seek revenge against the "Vampire King," because there were other Families who had done such things before... It's just that the corpses were piled up to an unimaginable height.

Back on the ground, it seemed that the chaos in Hersalemz Roth had subsided. Although police cars and ambulances were seen everywhere, this also meant that the chaos and disaster were completely over.

"Leo, are you guys alright!?"

After taking over Shiro, the "Spell Association" focused all its efforts on repairing the barrier. Klaus, too, couldn't stop working and waited anxiously by the "Eternal Void" with worry. Finally, he saw Leo and Shinobu return safely.

"Ah! Mr. Klaus... I'm sorry..."

Leo instinctively reached out to greet them, but then he remembered his current status as a member of the Blood World's familiar, and his hand dropped, his whole dejected expression sinking. Perhaps he really was going to have to say goodbye to his friends... Libra couldn't accept herself like this...

However... Klaus rushed over and hugged Leo tightly, speaking to the boy who had returned from battle, in his capacity as the leader of "Libra":

"You saved Helsaremz Roth, and you saved Mary and William, the brother and sister. You are an incredibly noble and kind human being... Leonardo Watch, you will always be a member of 'Libra'."

"Um......"

For some reason, Leo felt a lump in his throat and tears welled up in his eyes. It was so wonderful that he could know Mr. Klaus... that he could know everyone in "Libra".

Then... suddenly a pebble hit him on the head. Leo, whose attention was drawn, turned around and saw that it was Zapp, who was holding a mirror and looking at Leo with great seriousness.

"So it really has become a Blood Realm Familiar. Honestly... the mirror can no longer reflect its image at all."

Just as Leo thought that Zapp, who had sighed, would finally feel sorry for him, he heard a certain jerk who was deliberately trying to provoke him say:

"That way, when I look in the mirror in the future, I won't have that messy-haired kid to make me look handsome anymore. It's a real shame that I've lost such an excellent reference point."

Foreword retracted... Leo suddenly wanted to beat Zapp to death. Sure enough, this kind of bastard and scoundrel should just die.

Chapter 82 Hello, world! (The End)

The second Great Collapse caused by Helsaremz Lot, the "King of Despair," has come to an end. Thanks to the efforts of Libra, the conspiracy of this otherworldly thirteen kings has been thwarted, and the lively and bustling Christmas carnival has come to a complete end.

Inside the headquarters of "Libra," Leo was looking at himself in the mirror on the wall. He could no longer see his reflection in the mirror. Becoming a Blood World Familiar had indeed brought many inconveniences... For example, he couldn't see his terrible appearance when he woke up in the morning, nor could he groom himself.

Regarding Leo becoming a Blood World Familiar, apart from Klaus and Zapp who fully accepted it, the others in "Libra" seemed unsurprised, as if there was no difference between Leo being human and a Blood World Familiar... Perhaps after spending a long time with him, everyone understood the character of this boy and that he was a trustworthy partner.

His heart was filled with warmth. Although the members of "FangGar" had initially warned Leo about the consequences of becoming a Blood World Familiar, they had now accepted him without reservation. It was so good to have companions to rely on.

On a typical day in "Libra," Mr. Klaus and Professor Stephen were organizing information about the Despair King incident that had happened to Helsaremz Lot and the subsequent troubles that needed to be resolved. The old butler Gilbert stood aside with a smile, waiting for orders. The invisible werewolf and KK only appeared when there was a necessary mission.

The half-fish man Jet was still reading a book about the city of "Helsaremz Roth", but surprisingly, he didn't see Zapp anywhere today.

"Chirp~ Chirp!"

"Huh? Sonic? What's wrong?!"

Seeing Sonic the Hedgehog jump onto his head, Leo asked this clever friend, who was also a member of "Libra," if it had something to tell him.

"Chirp! Chirp~ Chirp! Chirp..."

"Ah...you mean this? I'm sorry...I can't go..."

As if understanding Sonic's words, and watching Leo and the speed-boosting monkey communicate, Jet, sitting on the sofa, closed his book and asked with some concern:

"Leo, is there anything I can help you with?"

"No...no, it's nothing important..."

Leo, scratching the back of his head, replied awkwardly. Although Jet was still somewhat concerned about the situation, since the person involved said it was okay, he could only stop there.

However, the next moment—the door of "Libra" was suddenly pushed open, and Zapp rushed over aggressively, then grabbed Leo by the collar and lifted him up.

"You damned little brat with messy hair, what are you still doing here?!"

"This has nothing to do with you, Mr. Zapp..."

"You bastard! You think I won't beat you to death?!"

Seeing Zapp, who was unusually furious, and Leo, who looked completely indifferent, everyone present was astonished. Jett quickly came to their side to intervene and stop them:

"Let's talk this out. What happened?"

"You spineless coward!"

Zapp angrily tugged at his clothes and slammed Leo over his shoulder to the ground, explaining the reason behind it.

“Mary Macbeth, she’s leaving ‘Helsaremz Roth’ today, what are you doing here instead of going to the airport to see her off, you bastard?!”

"That's fine...and it's none of your business, Mr. Zapp..."

Leo, who was sitting on the ground, said this calmly. Upon hearing this, Zapp was even more furious and wanted to rush over and beat Leo up, but fortunately, Jet pulled his senior brother back and stopped him.

"You damn brat with the messy hair, what nonsense are you spouting! You really like that girl, don't you? You even have your heart set on her. Aren't you going to go see her one last time?!"

"I've already said! This has nothing to do with you, Mr. Zapp!!"

Zapp's words hit a nerve, and Leo's words were also filled with obvious anger. At this point, Klaus, the leader of "Libra", finally took action.

"Zap, calm down. Let Leo handle this himself."

"But! Boss..."

"Alright... listen to me!"

"Tch...okay..."

After giving Leo a disapproving look, Zapp sat down on the sofa nearby, feeling quite annoyed by the messy-haired kid's current behavior... He wished he could kick him all the way to the airport.

Klaus walked up to Leo and extended his right hand toward the boy who was still sitting on the ground, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"Thank you... Mr. Klaus."

Leo stood up, holding Klaus's hand. He looked apologetic... but more so downcast. At that moment, the leader of "Libra" placed his left fist against Leo's chest.

"Leonardo Wojciech, I understand your intentions... but is this really a good thing? Your actions may be hurting others."

"Hmm... that's fine. I'm a Blood Realm Familiar now... I'm already content as long as she can live a normal life."

.............

Three days ago, just after the Hersalemz Roth disaster ended, Mary Macbeth was recuperating at the Central Hospital of St. Tealaniate, where the doctors were astonished to find that... this young girl, who had always had heart problems, was now in remarkably good health.

Leo, who hadn't visited Shiro even once since the "Great Collapse" incident, only went to see the girl's brother William once. To his familiar friend "Black," Leo pleaded with him like this:

"Please don't tell Xiaobai what happened. She's much better now. I want to ask you to take her away from 'Helsaremz Roth,' whether it's to travel the world or settle down somewhere she likes. This has always been Xiaobai's wish."

"She probably wanted to live happily ever after with her brother."

The silent Blackie knew everything even when his body was possessed by the "King of Despair." He knew how much this person had sacrificed for his sister, and even saved him from the darkness. The two siblings owed Leo so much.

"Why give up? Even if you're no longer human... Xiaobai and I won't mind..."

"Please, this is my only request!"

Seeing Leo bowing to him, Xiao Hei didn't know what to say. The man in front of him had already made up his mind and was determined, and no one could persuade him to change his mind.

After fruitless communication and sighs of helplessness, Xiao Hei could only agree to Leo's request to conceal what had happened to his sister Xiao Bai during this period, and would book a plane to leave "Helsaremz Lot" in three days.

Xiao Hei told Leo about the flight time he had already booked, hoping that he could come and meet Xiao Bai one last time. Unfortunately, the boy was adamant and had no intention of going.

As one of only two people in the know, Zapp was naturally outraged by the whole affair. He was furious and resentful of Leo's cowardly and spineless behavior. If he weren't currently outmatched by the kid, Zapp would have already tied him up and taken him to the airport.

Klaus was also aware of this. As the leader of "Libra," he knew that Leo's choice was correct. Humans should not have too many emotional entanglements with Blood Families. After all, most Blood Families appeared because they could not bear the death of their loved ones, which led to the emergence of new Blood Families.

But when this happened to his own companion, Klaus could only sigh helplessly... Humans and Blood Familias are almost identical except for lifespan and power; they too can be troubled by emotions and make mistakes. Leo's choice was correct... but also cruel...

The atmosphere in "Libra" was eerie. Zapp, arms crossed, stared at Leo with a disgruntled expression. Jett wanted to say something but didn't know what to say. KK couldn't help but wipe away her tears with a tissue. ...By the way, when did she arrive?

Stephen, who was expressionless but was actually frantically discussing the money with his werewolf best friend, kept a smile on his face and said nothing; Klaus, who was back at work and focused on dealing with the problem; and Gilbert, the old butler who served him tea and water.

Although everyone's actions differed, everyone's attention was now focused on Leo, putting immense pressure on the boy who had become a member of the Blood World.

"Um... could you please stop staring at me like that...?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, boy? You're a Blood Realm Familiar now, so I have to seriously consider ways to eliminate you anytime, anywhere, right?"

Stephen, who had a smile on his face but was emanating wisps of black energy, immediately terrified Leo, who broke out in a cold sweat.

"Hey—you weren't like this a few days ago!"

"The Blood Realm's familiars are all heartless and ungrateful bastards, they deserve to die!"

Zapp, who had already drawn the Blood Blade, looked at Leo with a fierce gaze, clearly ready to attack him.

"Damn it... You have absolutely no right to say that!"

Leo, pointing angrily at Zapp, hadn't forgotten how much bad luck he'd suffered around Zapp since joining "Libra," and this guy still dared to shamelessly spout such nonsense.

"But! Little Leo~~ if you dare to do something so heartless and cruel, I, KK, am going to... shoot a few holes in your head with a bullet and see if your brain is still intact, okay?"

"........"

Leo's face was ashen. He knew that this KK boss was definitely true to her word. After all, he was now a Blood World Familiar... no matter what he was tormented, he wouldn't die. This meant that he would be tortured to the point of wishing he were dead!

Forced to back down under the combined pressure of everyone's attacks, Leo could only cautiously and timidly say:

"Um... wouldn't it be too late to go now? The plane is about to take off."

"Of course not, you stupid servant!"

Shinobu Oshino suddenly sprang out from his shadow, and before Leo could even ask a question in astonishment, she flew up and kicked him in the face, teaching this stupid servant a lesson he should learn.

"Get ready to go! I'll open a portal and take you directly to the airport."

"Uh... okay..."

Having said all that, if Leo didn't agree to go see Whitey one last time, the "Libra" members present would probably kill him in a heartbeat.

------------

At the airport, there were only 10 minutes left before boarding in the waiting room. It was impossible to go out to meet relatives and friends and say goodbye. Xiao Hei was a little downcast and hung his head to the side, while Xiao Bai asked his brother a little strangely.

"What's wrong, Xiao Hei? Aren't you happy that I'm getting better and can travel the world with you?"

"No...it's nothing."

Kuro, unable to tell Shiro about Leo, could only sigh helplessly. Suddenly, he heard his sister say:

"You're waiting for someone, right? That idiot who hasn't arrived yet."

"Xiao Bai...you!?"

“I know everything. While I was unconscious, my consciousness was completely absorbed into the barrier of ‘Helsaremz Loth’, and I saw everything he did.”

Xiao Bai's words shocked his brother, and Xiao Hei scolded him angrily:
