I Became a Dark Knight the Empress Is Obsessed With

Chapter 90

90 – Aranion Elderheart – (2)

Whoa!

“Kuk!”

I lowered my head to avoid the blade of the sword piercing my neck. The thrill of a blade brushing against the top of my head sent chills down my spine.

Rolling to the side, I took a few steps back as I slashed the sword that flew in succession.

But in the back, Lyncia is standing there with a frightened expression. There was no corner to back down.

“f*ked.”

He cursed and spat.

Right in front of him, Aranion’s knight, Carlon, was holding an obvious sneer.

He said with a slightly relaxed expression.

“As expected, he is a guardian knight of the empire. It’s on a different level from the gibberish of the Royal Guard.”

Carolon clapped. Of course, the soldiers lined up next to him were still pointing their swords in my face.

“Are you saying that I’m not the first to say something about the Royal Guard?”

“Think whatever you want.”

I was convinced by his reaction.

As expected, Aranion was behind it.

It meant that they had already descended into the underground canal and were defeating the knights of the Royal Guard one by one.

“I didn’t know it would last this long. What a remarkable skill. It’s too precious to kill.”

“Hey, thank you for the compliment. Then, is it a strategy to lynch several dwarves?”

“When dealing with a strong enemy, yes.”

Carolon shook his sword as if the small talk had ended. Then, like a flash, he ran in front of me and swung his sword.

I hurriedly dodge to the side with mana, but another soldier was there.

“It’s black.”

I deflected my sword and slashed the sword he wielded, but I couldn’t get it off the path perfectly.

A stabbing pain left a deep cut on the shoulder blade.

There was something I felt while fighting the guys. There was no major problem with the body and mana management of Freedra.

However, the lack of combat experience was holding me back.

If it was a normal soldier, even if several people rushed at him, he could only press down with his physical ability, but it was not easy to shake off the well-trained elite soldiers who rushed in line with their tactics.

While fighting Atral, he boasted that he had gained a good reputation in one-on-one combat, but to be able to fight against a group of mere soldiers like this.

It was clear that these guys were the elite of the elite, specially trained to catch strong enemies.

Whiik!

Chae Chaeng!

I took Carolon’s sword.

As he drew out mana with all his might, Ernst emitted a brilliant white light.

However, Carlón’s sword against this was also surrounded by mana that seemed to contain the coldest frost.

“Good mana. High purity, good quality. But.”

Carolon bent the hand holding the sword and pulled the center of gravity toward himself.

“There is a saying in the world that quantity is better than quality.”

I held on with strength in my grip, but I couldn’t even avoid the attacks of the enlisted soldiers.

There is a knife mark on the back.

Staggering back as if crawling on all fours, I saw Lyncia covering her mouth with a shocked expression.

“Whoa, whoa.”

I took a deep breath and returned to my posture.

I thought I’d finally cleared up the misunderstanding, but these kind of uninvited guests intruded. I had no luck or support.

But even in such a bleak situation, what dominated my head was a calmly boiling fighting spirit.

And this fighting spirit has saved me time and time again.

I gently wiped the blood that flowed from my mouth. Then, with a slight smile, he pointed his sword at them.

“Come on at once, you assholes.”

“Yes.”

Seeing that, some soldiers were agitated and backed away, but defended their position again at Carlon’s scolding.

“I like that spirit alone.”

Carolon swung his sword and lunged at me.

Several sword attacks rushing in in an instant.

I didn’t have the ingenuity to avoid it all.

Then I had no choice but to accept it with less pain.

Whirik!

I straightened my body and swung my sword in front of Carol.

But.

“Great!”

I ended up stepping on a puddle of blood on the floor.

This is a mossy waterway. I stepped on the blood that had started to solidify in the already slippery yard, so I couldn’t maintain my posture even with Fried’s superhuman sense of balance.

I just slipped And Carolon smiled broadly at the sight and raised his sword.

Oh, is it over?

At that thought, I closed my eyes.

Strangely, there was no particular fear of death.

“… … .”

But there was no shock.

Instead, a huge wind blew behind my back.

It must be an underground aqueduct with no wind passage.

Doubtful, I slightly opened my closed eyes.

Sweet baby!

At that moment, the shape of a huge bird passed over my head.

The bird, wielding dazzling silver-white mana, flew straight toward Carolon.

“What, what!?”

Carolon panicked and raised his sword, but it was a failure. It was because the huge bird grabbed the blade with its claws and turned its massive body.

All knights never let go of their swords. It was the same with Carlon.

However, because of that, Carolon was almost dragged away by the bird that grabbed the sword and was thrown to the ground.

“What the heck.”

I couldn’t believe what was happening right in front of my eyes.

There’s a monster like that in the basement?

However, I read the flow of pure white mana.

That mana was flowing right behind me.

Woo woo woo.

When I hurriedly turned around, there was a trembling girl with her teeth clenched as hard as she could, with mana wrapped around her hands.

Although the girl was small, she seemed taller than anyone else in the room.

When I saw it, I understood what the English was.

That monster was a spirit.

In other words, Lincia was finally helping me.

“your majesty.”

When our eyes met, Lyncia nodded instead of answering.

Maybe he’s so preoccupied with mana management that he doesn’t even have the strength to answer.

I turned around again.

A monstrous bird bigger than most adult men was biting Carlon mercilessly, and the soldiers looked around, not knowing what to do when the focal point of the knight was struck.

In other words, it is clear that now is an opportunity.

Whoops.

I operated mana.

In the meantime, I couldn’t show my strength because of the soldiers’ check, but it was different now.

He draws out the mana from his whole body through the circuit that Seira pierced and captures it in Ernst.

Ernst, who had been shining silver, eventually started emitting intense sunlight.

“flaw.”

For some reason, a laugh came out.

As it is, I swung the sun in my hand.

Guguaguaguagua!

Just like that, the waterway collapsed.

A roar and a thick cloud of sand rose up.

In the scene of the merciless destruction, Aranion’s soldiers and Carolon were crushed as they were.

“uh… … .”

I scratched my cheek.

This isn’t it.

a few minutes after that.

“I lost too much blood… … . Are you okay?”

“Yes. it’s okay.”

Lynchia looked at my wound restlessly as if she had been hurt.

After the battle, the sense of reality returned. My whole body ached. There were definitely more attacks received than avoided.

At least I was turning magic all over my body, so if it wasn’t over like this, it wouldn’t have been worth it.

I should say thank you to Seira.

“If you think there is something wrong with your body, tell me in time. What if they used poison… … .”

With a tearful face, Lyncia hurriedly tore off the hem of her skirt.

A bare leg covered in scars was visible, but she still didn’t care.

As I watched Lincia tie my wounds with the torn hem, a memory from the past suddenly came to my mind.

“hahahaha.”

“… … What’s wrong.”

“It’s just, hasn’t it been like this before?”

Lyncia tilted her head at my words… … I smiled as soon as I remembered it.

It was a memory of National Foundation Day.

“It was. Just like back then, Sir Fried saved me.”

“… … Didn’t His Majesty also save my life this time?”

“It’s overrated.”

As I said that, I looked at the little owl sitting on Lynchia’s shoulder.

Was that the spirit that Lynthia contracted with?

During the battle, it swelled up to the size of an adult man, but now it shrunk to the fullest, and it was very cute.

Lincia heard me and stopped wrapping her hand. And he looked up at me with a wry smile. Eyes were wet.

“… … I have it.”

“Yes.”

“I think you misunderstood Sir Fried too much.”

Having said that, Lyncia put her hand inside my side and stroked it.

The place that Lincia touched was the wound that was injured by Atral. I managed to seal it up, but it was unsightly.

Sensing the touch, Lincia crumpled her face.

“To the knight who suffered so much for me… … I said too bad. Come to think of it, the reason I was able to come this far is all thanks to Sir Fried.”

“no. It’s my fault for not explaining it before.”

Lynchia shook her head. And he opened his mouth.

“The oath.”

“Yes.”

“Is the oath irresistible?”

“… … I do not know.”

“is that so.”

The owl perched on her shoulder purred.

That’s a cat, not an owl.

“If I ask about the oath in detail, Sir Fried will never answer.”

“… … .”

“But… … it’s okay Now is.”

After saying that, Lynchia closed the bandages.

“No matter what the oath was, I will honor Sir Fried… … , No, I will believe in Fried.”

“thank you.”

“Instead, if you’re having a hard time, you can always confide in me. You don’t have to make secrets between us, do you?”

Having said that, she stroked the dagger in her bosom with a slight glee.

“Show the past. without fault. without lies. Trust each other. Right?”

“… … Yes?”

I didn’t mean it like that.

But Lincia’s will seemed so firm, so I blankly nodded.

Then she grinned.

“Then shall we stop?”

Unlike the last time, it was she who led the way.

I grabbed Lincia’s outstretched hand and stood up. Just as she was about to take that step, Lyncia suddenly spoke out.

“Here, one more.”

“What are you doing?”

Lincia licked her lips, then looked up at me with her head bowed.

“Why are you doing this for me? Last time I said it was for the imperial family, but that’s not it. Even to save my little sister… … You even have a promise to kill me, why the hell?”

It was a certain way of speaking.

I stopped and pondered.

why do you do this

It was a natural question for Lyncia. It’s no wonder that the shady knight who jumped out of there was terribly rolling for himself.

Of course, it was only for the sake of clearing the game.

But it can’t be said like this. I thought of a suitable answer.

“that’s.”

I opened my mouth.

“A character named Lyncia Eyren… … .”

I was about to say that the character Lyncia Ayren is my favorite, but I stopped talking. Because I wouldn’t understand anyway.

Instead, I spoke at length.

“Because to me, Lynthia Eyren is the person I love the most.”
