by fnovelpia“Give me my daughter!!!!!”
Huh!~
A strong aftereffect swept the surroundings.
Although it seemed like a light swing, the Death Knight’s attack was so powerful that it made my bones tingle.
“Where did you hide my daughter!!!”
“What-”
Chaang!!!!!
“Qu.”
It’s impossible.
It is difficult to accept this at the current level.
Death energy is mixed with mana, making it difficult to understand the state. This guy is producing 7-star power, but he may be at a higher level than that.
But why is this guy here?
Who is stronger than the warlock leader?
Wait, something seems familiar… .
“My daughter!!!”
visor!!
He amplified his sword as if squeezing it and parried the Death Knight’s blow.
“Where did you hide it!!!”
However, the sword was swung again.
fast.
Therefore, I borrowed Medis’ special skills.
Tsupot!!
A light and fast leap without any heaving of the ground.
It’s good for a surprise attack, but there’s no better way to retreat.
I thought about it for a moment.
It’s not unfamiliar.
They say the skulls all look similar, but as a lich, I can tell them apart.
I’m sure I’ve seen this guy somewhere before.
The most important thing is:
black skull.
Red eye glow.
When did you have a strong memory… .
Flash.
It occurred to me.
In the forest where I met my disciple.
The one who killed the goblin that threatened Ronica.
It was him then!
“Can’t we blow it right now!!!”
bang!!!
We encountered swords again.
Even though the wind around the sword cushioned the impact, the grip was torn and bleeding.
‘Was he this strong? .’
I continued thinking without hesitation.
I’m sure I saw this guy in the woods.
Afterwards, there were rumors that the village had been destroyed.
And we met again at this place.
There is clearly a connection.
What is that?
Wait, I missed one important thing.
I recalled the cries of the man I was chasing.
‘He kidnapped Cadet Ronika! please help me Then I will help you find a child named Ronica!!’
There is tons of information here.
first.
The man I was chasing knows Ronika. And a somewhat familiar voice.
I think I understand.
Are you Instructor Croshell?
They said he ran away, but then he joined hands with a warlock.
second.
Instructor Croshell was not on the same team as the Death Knight, and lied to cover up the situation.
I kidnapped Ronica?… .
Why did that sound suddenly come out?
third.
Death Knight became enraged by Croshell’s words and attacked me, demanding that I give him my ‘daughter’.
… no way.
Is this crazy Death Knight claiming to be Ronica’s parents?
Why on earth?
It’s hard to believe, but the context fits.
The reason I appeared in the forest a year ago.
The reason I was sad alone in the forest.
The reason why the village was destroyed when Ronika left.
The reason I appeared here now.
The reason why he lost his temper and attacked me because of Croshell’s words.
‘this guy… really?’
Both parents must have died?
Could it be that my mother’s side became undead?
No, I have a big bone structure.
It’s definitely a man.
But I killed my father.
Was it fake?
Well, I don’t really see any family affection…
“What have you done to my daughter!!!”
Kwaang!!!!
Cheap!!!
“Ugh… .”
There is no time to organize my thoughts.
First, we have to deal with the guy in front of us.
It’s on a different level from the guys I’ve fought so far.
This is an enemy that can take your life in the blink of an eye.
It doesn’t look like it’s trying to kill you, but it’s not good for you to get hit. However, no matter how good I am, I can’t do anything about the overwhelming stat difference.
The enemy counterattacks five times per attack.
Excellent skills will be defeated before you even use them.
There is that much difference in specs between Death Knight and me. Based on experience, it is best to predict the posture and bending of the joints and prevent them.
There is no way to subdue it… .
I’ve already poured all my mana into Ronica.
If you use more strength, you will get tired later.
At least we need to leave room to deal with the warlock.
The only way to resolve this is through dialogue.
Swish!~
He stepped back and spoke quickly.
“Death Knight!! Regain your senses and face reality!! I am Ronika’s teacher. On what basis do you believe what that guy says!!”
“What?”
“That guy was trying to harm Ronica just a moment ago. I came to catch that guy.”
I hope this convinces me.
Croshell immediately launched an act of sabotage.
“Don’t lie!! I am an instructor at the Evelyn Training Center and the real teacher who taught cadet Ronica. I’ve never heard of someone like you.”
“That guy… .”
Sigh.
The Death Knight grabbed his sword again.
It seems like this guy trusts Croshell more than me.
okay.
I’m not good at speaking, but… .
This crazy death knight.
This guy who believed that is also a problem.
What should I do?
Flashing red eyes are watching me.
This is the guy who destroyed the village because his daughter disappeared.
It would be difficult to expect a rational response.
But if I were to waste my remaining strength here… It won’t end with suppression.
One of the two gets seriously injured.
I can’t help it.
Tsupot!!
First, I jumped backwards.
The important thing now is to stop the summoning of the Arch Lich.
There is no time to waste energy on unnecessary things.
Just turn around and run.
Ta-da-da-da-da!!!!
“stand!!!”
I quickly ran away the way I came, and the Death Knight followed behind.
*
widely!! Pot!!~
Step on the side of the tree and leap.
Blame, blame!!
I zigzagged my route here and there.
This is to outrun the Death Knight, but it is not easy to outrun him because his speed is so fast.
“Can’t we stop right now!!!”
As he was about to step on the side of the tree, he turned and swerved.
Whipping!!!!
At the same time, the sword energy cut down the tree and passed through.
Tsupot!!
After landing, step on the ground and jump.
There is no end to this.
Even though I increased the speed with magic, it is chasing me at a speed that does not allow me to be pushed back.
How long has it been like that?
“Black ahhh!!!!!!!”
Suddenly, I heard Ronika’s cry from afar.
When I checked with the regiment, I felt him running towards where I was.
‘Why here?… .’
I closed one eye for a moment.
When I checked with shared vision, I didn’t see any particularly dangerous enemies.
Then why are you looking for me?
Did I run away here?
Do you think I’m trying to come back to you?
And they run towards me with joy… … .
shit.
This is the guy who only checked my location during the scramble.
If you are a disciple, that is enough.
If I had been checking my location by solidarity, I would have been surprised to suddenly return here. He must have misunderstood that you were trying to join him.
It’s a disaster.
If you face a Death Knight in a situation where you don’t yet know how he will come out… .
“Black ahhh!!~ Here, here!!!!”
Shall I turn?
No, you can only cause misunderstandings on your part.
“Stop!!!”
Behind is the Death Knight.
In front, you will soon encounter Ronica.
Is this a judgment call?
Tiring!!
◎︎ Release handprinting.
◎︎ Use growth control.
Huh profit!!!
The moment it turned into a phantom beast, the sword energy fired by the Death Knight passed directly above.
“Sudden transformation?… .”
I ran forward again.
For now, I have no choice but to trust my student.
I’m sure he wouldn’t kill Ronica even though she was his daughter.
If they try to cause harm, just punish them with all your remaining strength.
In that case, it won’t be able to stop the black magic, but… .
It had nothing to do with me in the first place.
I guess I’ll just have to sneak the disciple out of the mountain and run away.
Now I plan to risk everything for my student.
“Oh, stop!!!”
The Death Knight, briefly taken aback, quickly closes the distance. At the same time, Ronica was seen running in front with open arms.
I shouted urgently and ran.
“Kiyaaaang!!!”
Help me! Disciple!!!
“Negro!!?… … .”
Ronika paused for a moment.
This is because I saw the red eyes of the terrifying Death Knight chasing me.
This is a situation that would scare an average child.
But Ronica.
“Negroes are not allowed!!!!!!!”
He leapt at an incredible speed and blocked the space between me and the Death Knight.
While wielding the dead instructor’s true sword.
Swish!~
The Death Knight immediately stopped, took a step back, and dodged the sword.
Avoidance, not counterattack.
Did you recognize Ronika?
So, I quickly hid behind Ronica’s legs.
It feels a bit weird, but… This is the best for now. That is, if the two of you are a family.
So the two guys faced off.
Now, how will it come out?
Even if you say you are my daughter, they won’t recognize you.
“… iced coffee… … .”
A sigh that comes from the bones.
The Death Knight stopped all his actions.
After seeing Ronika, time seemed to stop.
“If you approach a black person, I will not forgive you!! Because I will never stop it! … .”
On the other hand, Ronica shouted solemnly.
To protect me.
It’s good to be active, but… It’s a really strange feeling.
If you’re not careful, you could die.
Nevertheless, he came forward like this.
The weak guy said he would protect me.
Come to think of it, even during the bet with Croshell, he threw himself on the line to protect me.
Is there really no fear?
No, I’m shaking.
It will be very scary.
That’s because the enemy is a Death Knight.
As you can see, contrary to the solemn words, his entire body was stiff.
Not threatening at all.
“Ah… iced coffee… … as… .”
(Nika)
But enough.
At least for a Death Knight, it is a powerful blow.
Because his daughter pointed a sword at him.
Very shocked face.
No, it’s a skeleton.
Awkward silence.
Awkward confrontation.
“… … … ?”
A situation where no one moves.
Ronica’s eyes were filled with doubt.
That moment.
Fighting hard.
The Death Knight dropped his sword.
My hands are shaking.
This reaction.
‘I guess it really was my daughter.’
… I can’t see any tears, but I’m crying.
As a Richie, I can tell.
He let out a scream.
So much so that I forget everything.
So defenseless like that.
If we surprise attack now, we can easily suppress them.
but… .
Let’s watch for a bit.
chin.
He took a step closer.
“Don’t come!!… .”
The red eyes of black bones.
A fraud that comes out implicitly.
Ronica looked frightened, but calmly raised her sword.
“Don’t come any closer!! If you threaten a nigger, I won’t leave you alone!!“
“… iced coffee… … my… .”
(Daughter)
A sigh mixed with joy and sorrow.
The Death Knight did not stop.
chin.
Jerk.
I come here in a daze.
I thought it would jump out if I attacked, but it didn’t seem necessary.
Because I was so defenseless.
“… I’m telling you not to come!!!.”
The fear of an incomprehensible situation.
Ronica swung her sword around the auror.
Push!-
“… … … .”
The sword was stuck in the Death Knight’s face bone, one of the only places without armor.
Originally, it was a sword strike that would not have even caused a scratch, but Ronica’s strength, strengthened by the buff, inflicted a wound on the strong skeleton of the Death Knight.
Wow.
Some bone dust falls.
Nevertheless, the Death Knight did not stop.
I dug in two steps again.
“Ah… … .”
Ronica’s trembling eyes.
A hand was placed on the top of his head.
Tuk.
“… … … .”
Thin and hard finger bones.
The Death Knight placed one hand on Ronica’s head without saying a word and did not move.
Ronika looked up with wide eyes.
So we looked at each other.
At first glance, it looked similar to Ronica and I from before.
… Silence began again.
Death Knight forgot his language at the sight of his daughter, and Ronica, for some reason, could not shake it off and quietly looked up at him.
You can feel Ronika’s heart through the solidarity skill.
warm.
The guy felt an inexplicable warmth from the Death Knight’s touch.
I was feeling confused about that.
On the other hand, Death Knight was crying.
He continued to let out inaudible screams.
As a lich, I can read his expression.
regret.
despair.
sadness.
But there was only warmth at the fingertips.
family.
What is it?
Death Knight had warmth in his fingertips, even if it meant faking all his emotions.
Ronika felt it.
The way I see it, this was family.
Even if I couldn’t recognize it, there was something beyond family.
Different from my solidarity skills.
The two felt a real ‘solidarity’.
10 seconds feels like 1 minute.
Okay.
Death Knight, who belatedly withdrew his hand, took out the pendant and held it around his disciple’s neck.
The same pendant was hanging around the disciple’s neck.
Faaah!!
The two pendants merged together with light.
“… Thank you.”
For being alive.
“… … … .”
Was that the end of the business?
Eventually, the Death Knight slowly turned around.
The back was emitting even more screams. It’s like he doesn’t want to break up.
Trudging.
I walked straight ahead.
Ronica stared blankly at the back.
Slow steps.
Only the sound of trudging footsteps echoes quietly.
The moment he entered the darkness, he seemed to disappear.
In the silence that follows.
Soon, Ronica’s ant-like voice was heard.
“… … … Strange.”
It’s black.
*
“Are you feeling okay?”
“I’m fine, but the other kids… … .”
“Huh… .”
The training center director sighed.
Currently, approximately 190 cadets have returned to the shelter.
The team closest to the shelter arrived safely under the guidance of an instructor, but there were quite a few cadets who returned as individuals.
In other words, there are more than 100 cadets scattered here and there in the forest.
“I… Is this okay? Everything is scattered… … .”
An instructor guarding the shelter expresses concern.
The training center director also thought about that.
Team 2.
6 teams.
10 teams.
Three teams deployed to the northeast.
Not a single one of them returned.
Even if it was unavoidable due to the distance, I was very worried that something might have gone wrong.
“Yaaaa!!”
“Whaaaa!!”
As you can see, screams kept coming from the forest.
The instructors will hear the sound and track down and rescue you as much as possible, but the longer they delay, the more dangerous it will be.
But is just asking for it the answer?
The instructor who returned said:
It is said that if four instructors join forces, assuming that there are no cadets to protect, they can destroy the undead army and capture the warlock.
Also, the warlock tried to capture the cadet and take him away rather than kill him.
In other words, don’t kill the cadets.
So wouldn’t it be okay to just attack the warlock?
Attacking them ultimately rescues the cadets.
Sometimes offense is defense.
So, if we deploy the remaining instructor manpower… .
I shouted as soon as I came to mind.
“Everyone listen!! From now on, we will conduct a rescue mission and eliminate warlocks. Group of 4 people, excluding the instructor, to capture the enemy!!!”
The potential of the training center is by no means formidable.
This fight is won.
It’s just a matter of how much damage there is.
Now it’s time to fight back.
Then we can save the teams in the northeast… .
Stop.
It suddenly occurred to me.
‘Cadet Ronica… .’
The only thing I remembered was which team it was.
A person who has the biggest sponsor of the training center behind him. There were two teams located in the north.
Although I trust the instructors… .
What if the child goes wrong?
“… … … .”
Can not be done.
It’s a matter of life and death for one’s future and the training camp.
We must move further and faster.
Just in time, a pretty good person returned.
I shouted loudly to the instructor who rescued the seven cadets and entered the shelter.
“Instructor Richard!! Manage the shelter for me. The children from the northeast have not arrived yet. I will go to the forest myself!!”
“Training center director?… .”
The shelter is safe anyway.
There are about ten instructors on standby, so there is no chance of a warlock attacking this place.
All that remains is the safe return of the cadets.
The most important thing among them is.
‘Cadet Ronica must be saved!!’
It was the source of money for the training center.
If you go back to the time when you were persecuted by the nobles, it will be difficult for both you and the training camp.
Although all cadets are important, it is inevitable that they will be prioritized. Also, if it were in your power, you would be able to solve it faster.
Pak!!
Whoa!!!!
A powerful leap.
A huge ball launched by Hysterion.
The training center leader jumped high as if he was going to fly.
