Chapter 263
『What next?』
「For the meantime, I’ll do it thoroughly」
『Use them as a warning huh . You want me to do it?』
「Let me see . I’ll leave it to you」
『Umu . Leave it to me . I guess we should’ve brought Hikari as well』
Eleanor said looking seriously regretful .
While she would show great rivalry towards her daughter Hikari as a Demon Sword, she would teach Hikari many things on what a Demon Sword should be .
Although it seems contradictory at first glance, it looks like she has some logic behind it .
「D-Damn you」
「Un?」
「You think you defeated us with just this?! Hmph, we won’t yield even in this situation!」
「T-That’s right! We shall exterminate your existence in the name of God!」
The two men recovered from their surprise and showed their hostility while they said that confidently .
“What the heck……” soon after I thought of that, the men placed their hands together and started to pray .
Their bodies released a light . It’s a light that really looked holy . There’s no doubt that they’re planning to do something though .
『Kukuku, look how complacent they are . They seem to be young nobles who don’t know real battle』
Eleanor seemed like she’s found it funny yet rolling her eyes .
It’s exactly as she said .
These two clowns started chanting or praying in front of the enemy without guarding at all .
To test the waters, I kicked the ground and a small pebble jumped out in reaction .
That pebble grazed one of the men’s cheeks, creating a wound .
The man opened his eyes in his prayer pose and looked shocked .
Is this for real? They really didn’t do any countermeasures?
『What an interesting bunch . It makes me want to watch them finish』
I can understand what Eleanor said . Seeing how stupid they are, I want them to show me what they’re planning to do .
That’s why I let them . I waited for them to do what they’re doing .
After waiting for about a minute .
After I’ve waited for them for enough time to kill them 777 times, a monster shining with a light appeared in front of the two .
The reason why I called it a monster is because its lower body is that of a snake, and the upper body is that of an armored woman holding a sword and a shield .
「This is what is sent to us by our Lord!」
「The Guardian Holy Beast Lamia!」
The two men who summoned that Lamia thing quickly acted as if they’ve won .
「Go, Lamia!」
「Kill that Demon Sword Wielder!」
As soon as the man ordered it, the Lamia charged towards me .
She swung her sword while charging in a snake-like unpredictable way . The blade of its sword was swung down reflecting the moonlight .
I blocked using Eleanor, sparks scattered .
Its power, speed, and proficiency in attacking .
Each of them was quite decent . About the same level with the current Selene .
I judged that while receiving its first attack .
『Dodge!』
「Mu!」
I kicked the ground and jumped back after hearing Eleanor’s warning . A sharp slash grazed the tip of my nose .
I checked after I landed . It wasn’t Lamia’s sword, but there’s nothing else .
『No, there is』
「What? Mu!」
Soon after Eleanor said that, “that” appeared .
As if the darkness beside the Lamia melted, that thing appeared just as if its camouflage was released .
It looks exactly like the Lamia .
They completely look the same . Another Lamia appeared like a reflection in the mirror .
「An invisible surprise attack huh」
『……that, seems to be not the case』
「What’s happening, another Lamia appeared」
「This never happened before……」
The two men who summoned the Lamia looked confused . It seems like the situation was unexpected for them as well .
『What are you going to do?』
「For starters, I’ll try to slash them」
I charged raising Eleanor . I swung her down at speed exceeding the Lamia’s reaction speed .
The Demon Sword flashed . One of the Lamias were defeated and disappeared after turning into mist .
「This is……」
I didn’t bother to attack the other Lamia and jumped back . It’s because the feeling when I cut the Lamia was familiar .
「Eleanor」
『There’s no doubt . It’s the same with that white snake』
I got Eleanor’s agreement .
The feeling I got from cutting that Lamia was the same with the Opis, that white snake .
Come to think of it, it released a light, and its lower half is that of a snake .
『However……they doesn’t look like they’re dividing』
「……probably」
I raised Eleanor and casually approached . I enveloped myself in my dark cloak aura to provoke the enemy to attack .
The Lamia swung down its sword and I blocked using Eleanor .
Sparks scattered and another invisible slash came from the side .
I dodged it at paper’s width and gave an observant stare .
Just like earlier, a Lamia appeared from invisibility .
『I see . This time, it doesn’t multiply its numbers when you cut it, but it does when it cuts you』
「It’s power and speed are the same . It’s really the same with Opis . ……and」
『Umu』
I chopped the new Lamia that appeared with the returning blade and it appeared .
The lottery ticket .
It appeared after I defeated the first Lamia, and it appeared again this time .
I continued . I guarded against the Lamia’s attack making it multiply and defeat the new Lamia that appeared .
More lottery tickets appeared .
It looks like defeating them gives me one lottery ticket each .
『You’re going to farm them?』
「It’s the perfect time to do so」
『How about those guys?』
「Just about to take care of it」
『Umu?』
While I was farming lottery tickets from the Lamias, the men looked shocked .
The two of them haven’t noticed yet . They haven’t noticed that their feet were already tied up by my aura and Eleanor’s aura .
It’s the aura I released when I made my dark cloak aura . Starting now, I’ll take my time to grant them fear, creating the foundation for their confession .
「Uuu……UUWAAAAAAA!!」
「There’s something! Don’t! Nooooo! Don’t enter me!!」
The punishment for plotting against my woman . I’ll let them have a taste of it while I farm .
