Luke’s mission was to kill a princess. Valor’s mission always comes from the higher-ups in the royal family. The only shady part was… Why the royal family is targeting its family members?
“You must be wondering why?”
I don’t put too much emotion on my face but he still can read my thought. Luke you’re terrifying.
“It's true, Why the royal family will kill their own family? Are they that cold-blooded?”
“I was in shock when I heard mt mission. I questioned the majesty and he answered me quickly. He said Alicia is not of royal blood. Alicia was a mistake from the king's mistress. The real father of Alicia is an ordinary farmer. It was a rumor all around the kingdom. She’s going to be killed for the shame she brings to the country. As far as I’m concerned it’s an easy job, Alicia doesn’t have the great magical ability or combat skills.”
“If it's easy why you're the one who took the mission. You are the strongest in the family.”
“You have s
“Sorry, we have to tie you down.” Emilco said while looking at the newly woken up blonde girl. The cafe is already closed and no one is in the cafe except Konoha and me. The blonde girl struggles herself and tried to untie the rope binding her both hands behind her back. Her body we’re also tied to a single chair and her mouth was covered by masking tape. She is mumbling words we can’t understand while looking at us with a sharp gaze. “We should at least talk to her.” Konoha said. “Big sister Konoha is right big sister Seele.” “I don’t know about it… We don’t know if she is a top-tier assassin deployed to kill us.” “There is no way she can move from her position right now.” Emilco argues with her big sister. Seele thinks about it and scratches her cheeks with her index finger. She turned her glance on Konoha. Konoha's peaceful mindset is currently influencing them. It's the same for me, I can und
We leave the cafe and go back to Inn. I recommended the same Inn where Konoha and I rented for tonight to Alicia. Alicia’s room is next to us. This is great because I can at least guard her. In case, Luke finds her location and is attacked at midnight. No, Luke will attack at midnight. Attacking at the night is likely for an assassin. Assassins take advantage of the night and darkness to get away from their victims. I get up from my bed and turned my head to Konoha whose sleeping soundly. Her face is childish and cute. It's a shame that I’m not able to marry her. I already decided to marry Tarte instead for the status and money. Konoha deserves a man better than me. Someone who has hands tainted with blood. Don’t deserve to live happily with a nice girl like her. I have my sword and equipment ready. I get out of the room silently. I make sure Konoha wasn’t woken up. I sneak outside and hide in the tree facing Alicia’s room. In this loc
The festival starts in the morning to evening that's the tradition in this town. Just waking up in the morning from the bed you can hear the noise from outside. I was currently in the Inn with the others because Emilco's house is destroyed last night. That does matter, as long as we are all alive and safe. I washed my face and saw Alicia who is started to be clingy to Konoha. "Konoha-same... What do you want?" "Fried chicken. I want fried chicken." Konohais being herself. That makes me feel happy. Still, I killed a person again, If Konohafinds out she might hate me again. I started to have anxiety after thinking that. Someone patted my shoulder. It's Seele and Emilco. "What happening to your face?" Asked Konoha. "Well, the furniture. Television and the expensive cups in the cafe are all destroyed. there nothing left to us." Said Emilco. "That horrible... Don't
After activating their magic the two started to charge into each other. Konoha's agile movements make it very difficult for Ren to predict her move and started to have trouble dodging. Konoha continues to attack Ren with her fist. Ren then turns around and uses his flaming sword to stop the continuous attack. "You're able to see that too?" Said Ren. "Lightning stream!" Charge of lightning from the ground spill out. Ren notices the charge of lightning and jumps up in the sky to dodge but there. Konoha was waiting and used her foot to stomp Ren back to the ground. The powerful stomp make the ground cracking and Alicia who was watching was so amazed at Konoha's power. Not to mention Konoha was able to defeat a dragon by herself. Alicia started to think that Konoha is powerful like her big sister Yusael. "I can't believe it, this two is like a monster infighting." Alicia said. "Flame sword: horizontal slash!
"A surprise attack? How did they know about this?" I said as I dodge and battle some of the mages. Looking around the area even Kuro is having trouble with them. Some of the adventurer with us are dead and mostly was injured. How did they know? Is there some kind of spy in the heavenly knight? Since I'm not really too fond of the heavenly knight I barely trust anyone. The members are quite large and I don't have time to search for him in a time like this. Flame skill: Flame slash! "I got this... Barrier!" Alicia cast a barrier to block the attacks from above and after that, she cast healing magic to heal those people who were injured. Alicia got her specialty. She became a cleric type of adventurer. An adventurer that can heal and support its teammates. On the other side. I guess no need to worry about that overpowered idiot. "Lightning punch! Lightning heavenly spear! Lightning Chidori!" Konoha continues beatin
After defeating [4], only two demon contract users remain on the shore. The demon contract users started to kill adventurers in revolutionary knights. We can't let those things continue. "Ren, Konoha I don't like those two. Could you defeat these two already?" Said Alicia who is supporting the adventurers. With the support, she did many injured adventurers are ready to fight again. Hearing her request. I guess I need to go too. "Alicia our secret plan." I said. "Eh? But it's should be a trump card right?" "Don't worry, this two are big shots... I'm insulting them if I fight them with my weak self. I will go all out for them too." Alicia smiled and nodded. Understanding what I'm saying she cast a spell that called upon dark clouds and block the sunlight on the entire island. Now that there is no sunlight. I can manifest my dark being. "Vampire form!" During this past battle and training, I started
The orange-dyed sky and the setting sun. On the shore of Steel Island, there were the revolutionary knights on the other side of the Island hundreds of mages from the witch cult are preparing for the upcoming battle. There they have their commander's Former red robe terrorist captain Zeha and a demon contractor, Louise. Using a geographic type of magic. Used by one of the revolutionary knight's wizards. We can determine the location of the mages. This wizard is named Pina. She has green hair and is a timid girl. She wears light armor in light green color the same as her hair and eyes. "Are you able to maintain using this magic?" Asked Kuro to Pina. Pina immediately nodded and make a face full of determination. "Yes, sir!" Besides Pina, there is Alicia and Yukinon another support mage of revolutionary knights. They both possed the telepath type of magic. This telepathy will become used fully in the battle. Konoha and I change our clothe
Climbing the tower as much as possible become our main goal. Konoha is running beside me seems very excited. Looking back on what's happened in the base. Konoha was an absolute monster in terms of magic and some abilities. She can even kill a demon with her demon art. I'm so curious about how she becomes this powerful but I think it's not the time to think about that. The monsters appeared in our sight. Both of us pulled our swords and hacked them out in our way. I'm not using my flame powers before but now it became my main magic to use. Maybe because it's a power given by the man I hate the most. But this power is absolute I must use it and save Hikari. "Konoha!" "What is it, Ren?" "Are you okay?" "Yes... Are you worried about dragging me to your messy mission?" "Well... To be honest, I think that a lot. I'm sorry for dragging you with me." "What are you talking about? I'm the one that walked beside you and follow you
