Chapter 83 – #18 La Tarajue, La Saqat, for That’s a Warrior (5)
Kang—Kang, Caang!
Kagaaaaa… ! Fuhuaaaaa!!
The black energy and the silver energy, the black greatsword and the silver longsword made a loud noise and collided again.
A sword strike similar to the one before.
Recurrence of conflict.
However, if there was a difference from before, this time Emilia was purely overwhelming the other side.
Emilia, who was clad in a silver aura and a colorless storm, was met with brute force by the black knight.
However, before his sword could reach Emilia, it was blocked by a storm and the sword could not reach Emilia.
When Emilia attacks, aiming for the gap created in this way, the black knight has no choice but to give up her attack and switch to her defensive stance.
The will to fight and to live swells.
The spirit transmitted from Emilia became more and more intense.
“Wow, that’s great…”
The one who murmured those words was a knight who arrived at the banquet hall as a reinforcement and was looking for an opportunity to deliver help.
Black knight and warrior.
Without being able to get close to the battle between the two, where even the storm rages,
There were quite a few people standing there, holding their weapons tightly and examining the situation.
The knights, who were confident in their skills while subduing monsters that were harmful to the country,
I can’t even judge their skills.
And it’s not just the knights who are looking.
Some aristocrats and influential people in the political and business world, whose curiosity and expectation that they could see the legend with their own eyes outweighed the fear, were also voicing admiration as they watched the scene.
I don’t know if I know their gaze or not.
The battle between the Demon King’s henchman and the hero was running to the end as it became more and more overheated.
* * *
Quick… Creepy… !
“Tch, is this too?”
Emilia, who had driven her opponent and continued a rough series of attacks with a colorless storm,
At one point, she threw her mithril sword, which had begun to crack, at the black knight and fell behind her.
Even with the mithril sword Mona gave her, she has already broken three swords.
Although stronger than an iron sword, an ordinary mithril sword was not enough to handle Emilia’s ‘full power’.
‘Next… !’
As she searches for her next longsword, Emilia retreats behind her.
Not only longswords, but a lot of weapons that Mona sent were nearby.
Among them, he picked up a huge ax and a morning star, and threw them vigorously at the black knight.
“【Roar]!!”
Same order as before.
With the resounding words of the incantation,
The weapons that left Emilia’s hands were also engulfed in a powerful storm, and they flew towards the black knight with tremendous momentum.
The black knight put more energy than ever before into his greatsword and swung it at the flying weapon.
Sparks fly, but the thrown weapons antagonize each other without bouncing.
The storm became the problowjobnt, and the ax and the Morning Star surged towards the black knight with more and more power, as if the hand of an invisible god was there.
The black knight was slightly pushed back by it, but barely managed to hold on―― it spilled upwards.
I’m going to go to the middle of the day!
A huge storm erupts and the ax and morning star fly away.
However, it seems that the morning star was not completely knocked out, and part of the pitch was hit and cracked by the slanted morning star.
A thick black mist seeps out of the cracked area.
“【Roar]!”
Heading towards the disorganized knight with his helmet broken, Emilia sprinted with both hands holding her freshly drawn mithril sword.
She crouched low, approaching at once like a beast crawling on the ground, or like a storm sweeping the ground.
“【Sing, roar, raise your voice and shout with all your might]!”
“【Sing victory, sing victory together】!!”
An incantation resounding high as if to inspire.
At the same time, the silver glow of the sword in Emilia’s hand and the colorless storm surrounding her sword became even more powerful.
The light flowing from the sword, and Emilia’s body rushing like a cannonball, leading not only the sword but also her entire body and a runaway storm.
With that in front of him, the black knight raised his greatsword again and tried to defend it.
… But for an instant, his arms were lifted up as much as he wanted, and he didn’t have them.
“So far… Is it.”
Long seal.
It is a body that has repeatedly died, died, disappeared, died, died, died, and died after being exposed to divine power.
Although it is said to be immortal, the body, which is not invincible or flawless, naturally needs time to recover if it is abused.
However, the body that had just awakened from the seal was forcibly moved with this black fog and magic,
In order to overcome the storm while competing with the opponent in front of me, I exhausted myself and overworked myself.
Eventually, the limit came.
That’s it.
“――Taaaaa!!!”
He sees the blonde haired hero attacking him and the hero’s blow.
But it was already too late to stop it.
The battle between the two is ruthless, where a moment in the blink of an eye, a moment in breathing, determines victory or defeat.
That’s why there was no way to block the blow he was about to take, as he slowed down for a moment.
Shhhhh!
Awesome!!
A silver trail and a storm flew in at the same time, and he swung with the momentum to cut the black knight in two at once.
* * *
Kugu Boo Woo Woong !!
The [Death Strike] That Emilia unleashed.
In the attack, which was accompanied by a strong shock and storm, the black knight’s body flew through the air and was thrown backwards.
Glaring at the fallen black knight with a heavy, loud sound, Emilia held her breath without letting her tension relax.
“Under… Ah… ! Ha… Ha… Ha… !”
An effective hit that barely entered.
Even with a mithril sword, he could not activate it for a long time, and since he had received the vicious attack power intact, even that knight wearing strong armor must have reached the inside of it.
In fact, the feeling of her deep cut remained in Emilia’s hand as well.
Woo woo woo woo! Whoa!
Whoo Woo-wook…
The mithril sword in Emilia’s hand, the storm that swirled around it died down and then dispersed.
However, it wasn’t long before the sword body cracked and eventually broke like the others.
With only the handle remaining, I threw it roughly to the floor.
‘Don’t get up… Don’t stand up… Please…’
Although Emilia had met many strong enemies and many terrifying monsters, this was the first time she had ever faced such a powerful enemy.
She doesn’t even know how the hell she fought, she just feels like she’s been pushed into battle.
Emilia rubbed the back of her own hand.
On the back of her hand is the 【Blessing of the Hero】.
The pattern, which had been as hot as if it were on fire ever since I first met that black knight in the hallway, still swelled up and gave me an uncomfortable feeling.
The heat seemed to announce that this battle was not over yet.
But even if you want to move
My legs were shaking so much that it was difficult to even stand, let alone take a step.
As if hyperventilation is about to happen, the lungs cannot properly accept the breath, so breathing becomes rapid.
‘Calm down, calm down, calm down. Let’s calm down…’
Whoa… After… Woo woo… After…
Perhaps as a result of overworking her unprepared body, the magical power circuits running through her body became tattered in many ways.
Recovery is necessary. Right now, it would be difficult to wage another battle like the one just before.
There is a loud noise coming from behind.
A voice of praise, a voice of admiration.
But still not coming close to the subject that sounds so far away,
It must be because of that gigantic corpse dragon that is still alive.
It seems that the wound from Emilia’s first blow has already been repaired.
Nevertheless, the reason why she did not intervene in the fight must be because the black knight had no instructions.
And now, that corpse dragon crouched down to protect the fallen black knight, threatening us.
‘… That… Can I knock it down…’
A close battle that I’ve been through for a long time. A body that has been overpowered.
Will I be able to face that dragon with this body?
At least some recovery seemed necessary.
But really, will you give me the time to do that…
『… All… 』
“?!”
At the faintly audible voice, Emilia tensed her body.
The source of the voice is the fallen black knight in the distance.
He fell on his back to the floor, and as he slowly got up, muttered vaguely as he illuminated Emilia with red eyes.
『… Huh… Excellent… Do… 』
Words of praise.
The black knight who stood up with words of praise that didn’t feel happy at all was definitely embarrassed by Emilia’s blow.
Her armor, along with the bluish flesh beneath it, had been cut from the point of death to around her waist,
Between them, as if a black mist had been released, it was blooming in full bloom.
But even with such a terrible look.
The black knight did not fall down and was alive and well.
Immediately behind him, the voice that had been singing victory and praising the hero a moment ago had died down with shock and fear.
Emilia wiped away the sweat and looked around her.
… Within her reach, she had no weapon of her own.
“Take it in moderation… I would like it to be a bit finer.”
『… Sorry… But… Anyway… The battle… Impossible… Do… Body… You said you were too weak… Recovery… This… Need…』
That’s a good thing.
Because she doesn’t seem to be able to get over it in her own state anyway.
If you’re dealing with it, it’s when you’re in a more perfect state.
Even if it’s not, I hope you’ll show up again when you’re far away so you don’t have to fight.
That’s how Emilia tried to return her hopeful observations.
『… But… A warrior… Killing is… To me… Given… Command… Ini…』
『Demon King-sama… For glory… This one life… Give it all… I will…』
It seems that her eyes are really going to go dark.
Oh, please.
Please don’t be careless…
