As Princess Raini’s unique ability blossoms, Noctis and her army decide to hurriedly retreat and flee.

‘Should I just do it? We’re retreating anyway?’

The moment I saw the back of her running away with her tail between her legs, my mind was instantly caught up in various conflicts.

For now, those guys are running away with their backs turned, so they can’t block the magic I’m casting, and even if they had sensed something was wrong and tried to deal with it, I would have been protected by Princess Raini’s overwhelming luck.

Besides, once I thought of it as a lump of experience, I now only see it that way. To the point where it feels like a huge loss to let it go.

If I had to point out a problem, it would be that since it was an act that touched the retreating Four Heavenly Kings of the future, the original story could change accordingly… .

‘As expected, Mana Blast is a bit lacking.’

However, there was no way that Noctis, who later rose to the rank of Four Heavenly Kings, would die from a Mana Blast, and using a single Mana Blast on other minions was an inefficient waste of magical power.

So, if you’re going to do it… .

‘If we’re going to do it anyway, it’s better to completely burn it down with triple-glazing.’

As soon as I finished thinking that thought, I immediately recited the spell and created three magic spheres in both my hands and above my head.

“Whew, somehow it ended. Release, now go in and rest… .”

“Magic power!!!”

“Release?!”

Although Ethan reacted with bewilderment at my spell, he could not stop the magic that had already begun.

If it’s something that has to be done anyway, then definitely do it.

At best, I couldn’t be held responsible for slaughtering a bunch of demons, and in the first place, firing at an enemy who was running away first on an actual battlefield wasn’t really a violation of the laws of war.

This is a legal and reasonable experience point farming site, so no one can stop me from leveling up.

“What, what is this magical wind? ”

“Hey, Lilger… Ah, no, Miss Rosewood! What the…!”

“Great vortex of magical power, explode!!”

So, with the last spell, three magic spheres stretched out from my hand.

-Wheww!!

‘Goo, Goooo!!’

‘What, what the heck!! Gyaaaahh …

-Kwakwakwang!! Kwakwakwang!! Kwakwakwakwang!!

Three huge explosions erupted in succession from the retreating demon horde.

“Ha, haaa… .”

-Thud.

“Release, are you okay?!”

“Miss Rosewood! What, what are you doing now!!”

“Release amount…? What the hell was that antics just now… .”

Ethan, who hurriedly came to support me as I collapsed from exhaustion, and Geumjo-segi-geum, who was bewildered by what I had done, approached me.

Even Princess Raini seemed to question my actions and asked me questions as I walked, so I answered calmly, making up an excuse I had prepared in advance.

“They are the demons who came to threaten Princess Raini’s life. That’s why I thought it was unfair to let them go back like this just because they decided to retreat.”

“Release amount…?”

“Right now, they are just running away in surprise at the princess’s good luck, but how long can that last? If the princess is attacked again from a place she doesn’t notice, will Princess Raini’s unique magic be able to be used then? If that doesn’t happen and the people lose their lives at the hands of the demons, who will be held responsible then?”

“Did you think and act that far in that short moment? ”

“If those demons decide to invade again like this time, the one who will suffer the most damage will be the bordering kingdom of Dephrin. Of course, the demons’ ambitions are endless, so even if I do this, they will gather troops again and force an invasion.

So, I decided that I should inflict as much damage as possible while the powerful forces were at a loss. Then, at least I could delay the next invasion. ”

“… … .”

Of course, it was all just a made-up reason.

I just didn’t want to miss out on that experience farm and wanted to use up all my remaining mana to get the last bonus, which was the only reason I fired my Mana Blast. After all, I had no reason to fight the Kingdom Knights anymore.

But since the people of this world would never have noticed that I used mass destruction magic for this reason, the other characters, except for Gyeomjoshaegi, seemed to understand my actions and sympathized with me.

“Thank you for thinking of our country so much. I guess asking Miss Lilith for help was the right thing to do. Maybe all the bad luck I’ve experienced so far was because I was trying to meet Miss Lilith.”

“You are too kind, Princess Raini.”

“… But next time, explain in advance and act accordingly. I was surprised when you suddenly memorized Mana Blast, Lilith. ”

“I’m sorry. I acted too early, thinking I had to use Mana Blast as quickly as possible before the Demon Army retreated. I’ll be careful next time, Master Ethan.”

“I think I did well. I didn’t like that succubus girl from the start. She looks good.”

“… … Phew. Anyway, I’m glad it’s nothing serious.”

Although it was a somewhat impromptu experience farming, the result was successful. Not only did I slaughter dozens of high-level demons, each of which had valuable experience points, but I also gained support and favorability from other people.

…except for the deep sigh of the Gyeomjyo-segi-geom thinking about the story that will change in the future.

“As the release sheep said, I think we definitely need to use this opportunity to completely cut off that group of demons.”

“… … Huh?”

“Actually, I felt the same way as Miss Lilith. Those demons who once showed their greed will once again extend their evil hand to our kingdom or the Argentia Empire. I can never forgive that succubus demon who almost hurt my precious comrades.”

…for a moment.

Princess Raini, was she originally such a charismatic character?

“Although I have received help so far, I have not been able to ask you for help, but if it is alright with you, would you please help me a little more in subduing the remnants of that demon group?”

“… Are you talking about now?”

“Yes. At the very least, I think we should finish off the demons who were injured by the magic used by Lady Lilith. I don’t think we can do anything about the demons who escape across the border.

Of course, if you listen to me, I will make sure to compensate you from the Deprin royal family, including the help I have received from you so far. ”

“Well, I like it. I’ll do anything that succubus girl would hate.”

“Since it was started by my employee, I think it would be right for me to finish it.”

“… … Yes, I guess what the princess said is right.”

Even Silena and Ethan agreed with Princess Raini’s opinion, so even the most stubborn Gyeomjosaegi, who had no choice but to leave, nodded in agreement.

When we moved to the crater with the intention of subduing the remaining remnants of the Demon Tribe, what caught our eye was….

“Ah, no… . If you don’t run away quickly, that, that woman… .”

“Huh?”

“That’s…?”

“… Succubus woman?”

“Hi, eeek…! No! Gyaaaah!!”

It was the sight of Noctis trying to escape, flapping his half-burned wings.

“Release has reached level 37!”

“Release has reached level 38!”

“Release has reached level 39!”

…

…

…

“Release has reached level 43!”

After reuniting with Noctis in the crater created by Mana Blast, the second battle ensued without a word.

Noctis was also a remnant who might invade the kingdom of Deffrin once again, and with his tattered wings clearly showing his injuries, there was no reason for him to retreat.

It seems that he was unable to dodge my attacks properly due to the injury he received from Princess Raini just before retreating, and he took additional damage from the three consecutive Mana Blasts.

Since he had come this far, there was no choice but to kill her… In the end, the incapacitated Noctis was killed in vain by Ethan, the warrior, and Silena.

“This is ridiculous… . Why am I, the queen of the Kirt tribe, in a place like this… .”

“… Even so, she’s a slightly strong succubus.”

“Ugh, keaaaah…!!”

“… … .”

The expression on Gyeomjoseogi’s face, who had finished off the guy who would become the Four Heavenly Kings in the future too quickly, did look a little bit awkward.

Well, I guess he gained experience points, so I can only hope that he can use them to do something in the future. Since I went up 7 levels in the two weeks since I left the academy, the warrior also gained experience points.

… Later, I should secretly hand over the whispering leaf when I have the chance. I wonder if the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King still exist in this world. If they do exist, it is completely unknown who will take Noctis’ place.

‘At least if there’s a guide item, you won’t be confused even if the story changes.’

To be honest, it’s a useful artifact in its own right, but it seems more suitable for a warrior to use than me.

… Since the Silent Dagger is essential for leaving Blackwood Manor secretly, I can’t give you this item, of course.
