One week later, Telestal is back. During a rainy night, he comes back with his men in a silent procession, entering the mansion as if the world has ended. I thought he would have a lot of men but it seems a lot have perished. Especially with the heavy atmosphere that they are spreading.
I am standing at the entrance of the house and when he passes by me, there are no words, no sounds, only his rough and heavy breathing, as if he is sick. If someone like him who was born in this, was raised to fight and decided to save people by doing so is getting sick of it, then can I really do it?
“Only one way to find out, I guess.”
The next morning, I wake up because of a heavy noise downstairs.
“Master, please calm down!”
“Fucking hell!!!”
Noises of things being broken and screams flows from the stairs as I get down. When I reach Telestal’s room, his door is wrecked open, the bed is shattered as well. The carna
Sarah Campbell POV: “Fuaa…Another beautiful…day?” When I wake up, there is no maid besides the bed as usual. The window is not even opened like usual. The room is a bit dark and the air feels restless. This…this doesn’t look good. I leave my room and in the hallway is empty as well. “Fuaa…Good morning.” I then hear Tiffanie’s voice behind me. “Hello. How are you?” Just like me, she woke up by herself. Though her bed’s hair is bad, I have always liked how black they are. She is scratching her stomach while walking to me and yawning. Although we have a different knight teaching us, since we are only three girls, they decided to place us in the same place. Which reminds me… “Eleonor is still sleeping, right?” “I don’t know, Sarah. But since that bitch won’t wake up unless someone come to get her…” “You still call her a bitch, even now?” “It’s not my fault she is flaunting her ass to whoever
SARAH CAMPBELL POV: Thanks to the priest who was surprisingly fast for someone who had his eyes closed while helping us change, we have managed to dress up quickly. I never noticed those armors were so hard to put on. You need to fasten a lot of parts and then unfasten others when it is too tight then the armpits start hurting and you have…Urgh, I hope I won’t have to do this every time. We leave the changing room and most of the people we left haven’t changed. Eleonor is nowhere to be seen as well. The headpriest is still standing at the same place and among the boys, only five people have dressed up. “Are you done?” “Yes, we are.” She points before her with her finger and I walk there with Tiffanie, Ian and the others also come and when we are all assembled, she crosses her hands and something start shining on her forehead, a balance appears on it, shining with a bright yellow. “Wow.” Back in our world, we would definitively
What is she doing here? Right when I arrived on the battlefield, the first thing I noticed was Sarah sitting on the ground among the monsters controlled by the demons. Why would she launch herself into the arms of death like this even though she has never seen blood before?“That’s why I said you are stupid.”It’s a good thing that I have already amplified all the soldiers who were coming with me while we were on the way. We were able to make it faster than expected.I pass by a group of people wearing golden armors like her. Is this what they give to the heroes? Well, it looks sturdy enough so I guess it is okay.“You guys go to the side as support as well.”“Yes, sir!” Don’t call me sir.I jump from my horse and cut through the monster trying to kill her. With that, we can say that we are even right?***“No way.”“What were you trying to accomplis
Quite some time has passed since I have joined the battlefield. I can’t say I am really tired since he was making me fight for hours without end, surely knowing that this was the kind of thing I would face. But I have to admit that it is getting irritating.“Hey!! Come back here!”I fall directly on the ogre who raises its arm to grab me. I am not a ball, though. I slice its finger off and stomp on its head before killing it by stabbing it through. When I place my feet on the ground again, I am yanked backward and then she restarts running around me.“What is your problem, seriously?!”With her, the knights that were fighting until now falls back and the uncountable arrows cover them. We pass through three lines of soldiers that are heading for the place we were fighting and I see the guys I came with advancing as well. I wonder how long does the effects of Amplify last. I haven’t tried to monitor it until now. I should surely
“Just fucking die, goddammit.”No matter how many I kill, the others just come right afteIt is like thye just respawn somewhere. The forest from which they are coming from cannot even be seen anymore. They have levelled up the place with the cyclops.“Haaoo!!” And those fucking ogres are as relentless as ever. Their hollow like black skin turns red whenever they come near me and they instantly go into rage mode as if it was prescribed by a pharmacist. Do they not understand it is not a matter of strength.I dodge a gargoyle’s diving. Its claw are as long as a knife. It must hurt to be touched by that. I strike its throat as it turns to stab me with its tail. Every single thing, every single hour of training he had me go through is helping right now. Did you really know I was going to be here? Maybe you are even watching from somewhere right now? You were never one to speak a lot but you were alway
I run past the archers and rapidly join the knights and right as I enter the fray, I recognize one of the knights who is struggling with a goblin. I think it’s the guy I knock out once. Or maybe it is someone else. Anyway, I help him then I go to an ogre who is wasting time trying to kill two knights at the same time.“You are in the way.” I hook its eye and pull it out.“Haaooo!!” While it screams, trying to hold its eye, I cut its knees and make it fall then I simply pierce through its throat and that’s one down. It rapibly turns to smoke and the next moment, I hear the sound of thunder striking ahead. Was it that strong when we fought? No, surely, her skill got better like mine.***I can’t say how much time has pass now but one thing is certain.“Haoo!!”“Gna-”The number of minsters coming has decreased. It isn’t to the point one would say we can win this but at
I guess they have somehow received their orders. Their only problem is that… “Haoo-” “Haoo-” Sarah doesn’t seem to have a shortage of magic. She is now throwing her lightning spear with great precision; I am even starting to be jealous. You know what , now that it has come to this, it is time for me to see their boss as well. The guy has been standing there like he owns the world for the past while. “Sir hero! Behind you!” “Haoo!!” “I am going.” I run forward without caring for the ogre that was trying to do whatever from behind. To my surprise, none of the monsters are trying hard to stop me. Once I get past them, I can’t hear them following me. It’s like their orders is just to move forward. Well, it is a good thing for me so… “Giii-” Some goblins before me get stricken by lightning. This girl is a real busybody. Still, it is a hurdle to evade all those monsters while running up the hill. If I was as strong as
I sheathe my sword and take the stance of the dance of fire. I immediately start feeling hot all over as I do. A whirlwind engulfs me and the next moment, flames appear all around. “Oh…You seem to have more than one skill. Interesting.” “You haven’t seen even half of it.” The commander raises his sword and as he brings it down, I pounce on him and punch as well. The real problem I will certainly face is to align the different stances and variations of the dance of fire. Because if I am right, as soon as I will fail even one of those, the effects will stop and I will have to start all over. Our attacks collide and the cold from his aura freezes the whole area. The flames that are covering me don’t seem to be efficient enough to protect me as I can feel it as well. “But it will enough!” I immediately use the second stance and my kick almost reaches his face. He evades it at the last moment with a slight movement of the head. The third st
