I Became a Dark Knight the Empress Is Obsessed With

173 – Millia Liantour – (5)

As Fried Iscoval left, Milia, who had been glancing at his back, sighed softly and grabbed the hilt of her sword.

“If you tell me to go, I’ll really go, you savage.”

I let out a sigh mixed with grumbling.

In fact, all of the attention of the Guardian King Fried was directed towards the Empress. This fact was known to everyone in the palace. He also knew that he could only vent his anger in this way.

But that’s it.

But isn’t it possible to at least give lip service? Isn’t it okay to say a few warm words to the unfortunate supporting actor who is about to go into battle?

“… … Ah, why am I thinking like this.”

I was embarrassed. My face felt hot and I rubbed my cheek with my ungloved hand. Then, the soot spread out.

I felt bad.

But more than that, my heart aches.

“You think you can beat me? Are you serious?”

Arwen, who had been flying high in the sky, lowered her altitude and grumbled.

“I’ll give you another chance to call Iscobal. But it’s still a precious life, right? Can you struggle a little longer?”

“Shut up.”

Milia lifted the stop.

Come to think of it, isn’t it all because of that woman?

He muttered curses with all his hatred.

“What a b*tch.”

“Haha. Where on earth did you learn that kind of language? As expected from your older sister.”

“Can you stop talking? To be honest, you smell like an elf.”

“… … .”

Arwen paused for a moment, then took the front of her dress and sniffed it.

Then, as if he was displeased, his expression distorted.

“Whether it’s my older sister or younger sister, you’re the best on the continent when it comes to being shameless.”

“Stop talking and just jump in.”

Milia flicked her hand that was holding the stop.

“Since when have we been fighting with our mouths?”

“Haha. Right.”

Arwen, who was acting so cute, ran towards Milia, who was standing on the ground.

In that fierce rush, Millia didn’t even flinch as she charged her sword with all her mana and swung it.

*

Arwen, the Apostle of Corruption, dug into the knight’s inner self.

The fierce battle that unfolded from a distance was difficult for the side with fewer long-range attack methods. In that case, they decided to fight in close-quarters combat.

Unlike Arwen, who possesses superhuman physical abilities and regenerative powers, the knight in front of her has the body of an average knight, except that her magical abilities are excellent. It is obvious who will have the advantage.

Kwak-kak!

Sepia’s tentacles wrapped around the knight’s runesword. With one arm blocked, Millia tried to deploy her magic in a hurry.

But Arwen smiled broadly and thrust her powerful fist into the hand.

“Huh!”

“It’s useless!”

Millia’s wrist is bent at a bizarre angle.

At the same time, Sepia swung one arm horizontally, and she was sent flying far away, still holding her sword.

Millia rolled on the ground several times and maintained her stance by deeply inserting her sword into the ground, but Arwen was already right in front of her.

It flies in with a short, fluttering sound as it lifts its front legs.

But even during that process, Milia did not let go of her sword.

“Oh my. That’s unexpected. Your grip strength seems pretty strong.”

“Cough. I’ve heard a lot of criticism.”

He seemed to be seriously injured, as he kept coughing and spitting up blood.

The rest of the ground was covered in dirt and was a mess.

But Millia was still standing on her own two feet.

“One of my arms is broken. I can’t use magic anymore.”

“Then there is swordsmanship.”

“You lose.”

“You haven’t lost yet, right?”

“How foolish.”

Arwen took a deep breath.

Why are all the knights so old-fashioned?

“I feel sick.”

Yes, that was the point that was unpleasant.

Arwen, Apostle of Corruption. She was the leader of her clan as an elven elder before pledging allegiance to the outside world and becoming an apostle.

What was the reward for his tireless sacrifice as a leader? He was betrayed so miserably that he was left in the river with a knife stuck in his head.

That’s why Arwen still feels such a strong hatred towards elves. The fact that she ate Edwin at the Council of Elders was also because of her disgust towards the elven elders.

In that sense, this knight was foolish. It was ridiculous to risk one’s life for the organization.

It needs to be corrected.

“I changed my mind. You must become an apostle.”

“Who cares?”

“It’s my heart. I’ll make it happen.”

thud!

The battle continued the very next moment.

Millia tried to fight back with her sword, but with one arm bound, it was difficult to withstand the combined attacks of Sepia and Arwen.

Her body erupts with bruises, and Sepia’s tentacles tear through her armor and open deep wounds in her flesh.

Milia’s face was stained with pain, but she didn’t stop swinging her sword.

“… … .”

Arwen’s face hardened in displeasure, and Sepia split apart.

The attacks came from both sides. Millia, who had one arm caught, was unable to block them. So she tried to quickly deploy a barrier, but this resulted in her sword-holding hand becoming defenseless.

“Ugh!”

Arwen stretched out her arm and grabbed and twisted Millia’s right hand holding the sword. Naturally, her grip weakened, and Sepia’s tentacles succeeded in snatching the runesword she was holding.

She held the sword she had taken away with a bitter smile.

Phew!

A blade juts out, piercing through Milia’s abdomen.

What would it feel like to have my body pierced by my sword?

Arwen smiled with a strange sense of humor.

“Ugh.”

“It’s over now.”

Milia staggered for a while and then suddenly fell to the ground.

Even if a wizard doesn’t know, for a knight, the danjeon is the source of all power. With that pierced, there are no more mana circuits available in the body.

Even if there is magic that can be used without a circuit, it is only at the level of basic magical power discharge.

“The sword is sharp. Is it because it’s made of iron?”

“Khuuuh. Huh.”

Kang.

It was the sound of Sepia cutting a sword in two.

Millia’s pupils shrank as she watched this.

Her shoulders shook with anger, she stood up and rushed at Arwen with the broken blade in her hand.

puck!

Finally, Sepia slammed her fist down and pinned Millia to the ground.

Arwen said, sticking her tongue out in pity.

“I won’t kill you. Just stop the bleeding.”

“… … .”

“When everything is done, I will definitely transform you into an apostle.”

How about using the corpse of Archmage, who is probably dead by now, as a body and reviving it?

I didn’t know much about the art of utilizing corpses, but Kazimir was quite an authority in this area.

I was already looking forward to that day and couldn’t help but laugh.

By now, Kleta and Iscoval must have met. Arwen’s lips twitched as she wondered how they would react.

The plan’s achievement is virtually imminent.

I also need to slowly capture Seneca again, and check on Casimir’s condition.

There’s a mountain of work piling up.

It took me longer than I expected to catch this knight.

“Okay. For now… … .”

Arwen was muttering like that and trying to take a step forward.

For some reason, the background was strange.

“Sepia, what’s wrong?”

It was because Sepia was blankly staring behind her.

Arwen followed Sepia’s gaze, frowning.

There was a tall figure there.

“under…….”

This time, I felt more dumbfounded than angry.

Got stabbed in the lower abdomen. Broke one wrist. And you still get up?

I guess it’s because there’s no learning effect?

“you…….”

It was at this moment that Arwen, who had thought so, drew out her power and took a step closer.

A flash of light appeared before my eyes.

There wasn’t even time to use Sepia.

The light that came flying in like lightning not only pierced Arwen’s shoulder, but also sent her entire body flying backwards.

“Huh!”

A pain I haven’t felt in a long time.

Spitting black blood, Arwen looked at the knight before her, Millia Liantur.

“… … I won’t forgive you.”

A tidal wave of mana began to surge beside her body as she staggered to her feet.

I didn’t really have any doubts about whether she had definitely been cut off. There had already been countless strange incidents that the Liantur sisters had shown.

Soon, Millia’s mana began to take shape… … .

“……her.”

The sight was truly bizarre.

There were many schools of magic, but the magic cast by Millia Liantur did not belong to any of them.

“A magic sword? No… a magic weapon?”

The magic summoned by Millia took the form of a cold weapon.

Only then did Arwen realize that the blow that had pierced her shoulder was a bow and arrow made of magic.

Instead of the shattered blue armor, he was wearing a translucent magical armor. The helmet, which looked like a crown, was emitting a brilliant light.

Instead of the broken runesword in two, he held a long rapier made of magic in his other hand, and in his other hand he held a long spear, also made of magic.

“… … I heard it, but… … .”

I also heard that it was that magic sword that killed Anden, the priest of Artral.

However, I wasn’t that wary. Even in the summoning magic series, the most non-mainstream of the non-mainstream is the magic weapon summoning.

That would be the case, since how often would a wizard swing a sword? In that case, wouldn’t summoning a fire-breathing familiar be dozens of times more helpful?

however.

For Millia Liantour, it was a different story.

The moment her shattered sword and armor are replaced by magic, she can fight again.

You can fight until your mana runs out and your body reaches its limit.

The ship was pierced. She clearly cannot use the mana circuit. However, what she emits is clearly close to great magic.

In other words, Millia was tuning her own massive mana on the spot without relying on circuits.

“That black… … .”

Milia muttered.

“It was a gift. It was a precious item.”

“… … .”

“So, I will never forgive you.”

Arwen was slightly fed up with the murderous intent that Millia was giving off.

Suddenly, a great sense of fear came over me.

Why is this knight so desperate?

It is neither faith nor loyalty.

In the end, there is only one conclusion that can be drawn.

“… … Is it love? No way?”

He smiled bitterly.

I still didn’t understand, but this was the only way to explain it.

Arwen deployed Sepia. She no longer had the luxury of conserving her strength for the sake of the future. She knew that if she didn’t, she would be the one to lose her life.

“In my opinion, you are more of a monster than your sister.”

Honestly, I couldn’t help but admit it.
