137 – First Battle – 1
Serena, Christine, and Charlotte all failed to act when Olivia suddenly appeared. In the suffocating silence, only Olivia was able to relax.
All senses were tensed up. Serena was gauging the skill of the woman in front of her, Christine was reciting a prayer, and Charlotte recalled her past battle experiences.
Even if they searched the entire continent, they were the three who could affirm that there was only one opponent that could match each other’s skills.
Even if something twisted and turned the entire kingdom into an enemy, he was confident that he would kill all those who attacked him with a single lift of his hand.
Serena, Christine, and Charlotte were such beings.
But the girl in front of me was different. It was the first time I had encountered something that made me realize at the level of instinct that victory would not be guaranteed even if I attacked with all my might.
If the three of them had reached the limit of the human race and had no room to grow further, the girl in front of them was something that broke that limit and crossed the line.
I wondered if I could really call that a human. That limit was something that even Charlotte, who had lived the longest, hadn’t overcome yet.
But now, a being that has completely crossed the line has appeared out of nowhere.
However, it was not about avoiding a fight or trying to fight while considering the possibility of winning. The three of them had too much pride for that, and they didn’t think they would be defeated.
Anyway, all the women in this room were women who were hoping to take the boy to themselves by killing all the other bitches if they had the chance.
Even if one more person was added here, it meant nothing more than one more human being to be killed later.
Serena infused mana into her body. The wind shear that sucked in a huge amount of mana turned into glass. A bluish light shimmered around her body.
Christine raised her divine power. A white flame with a hint of yellow gently embraced her body. A pair of wings were ready to unfold behind his back.
A magic circle was drawn around Charlotte. A muttering of multiple incantations came from his mouth. The result of that multiple incantation shone brightly in the palms of both hands.
Although the subject to be most wary of here was the short black haired girl who appeared out of nowhere, I couldn’t help but be wary of other bitches.
It was clear that it would be quicker to wish for the world to end than for these three to cooperate with each other. Or the boy forced to give orders.
Looking at the rapidly cooling atmosphere, the girl tilted her head.
“Huh? Why don’t you fight more? Weren’t you joking around to make me happy? I came here myself because it’s a bit hard to see from beyond the dimension, but I quit when I came out. Is it because I’m shy? Shall I go again?”
do i go back Charlotte was the first to speak to the girl who pointed out into the darkness that had eaten half of her lower body.
“Your year was the main body. I was finally able to cut off its head and extract all of its memories, so that’s good. I won’t miss it this time.”
The girl who tilted her head at those words was lost in thought for a moment. It wasn’t long before something came to mind Ah! exclamations of admiration.
“I remembered. You’re the guy who used that magic? It’s because I didn’t bring them out of my superficial memory except for Master. Come to think of it, I couldn’t ask for your impressions. How was it because I was bickering with my alter ego? Was it fun? They fought very hard.”
“What can I say to a bitch who sends out an alter ego instead of me because I’m afraid to step out on my own? I’m sure her disposition is nothing more than a coward inferior to a beast. To think that she deserves to ask Jim a question on such a subject is really stupid. There is no mate.”
The girl, who blinked for a moment at Charlotte’s words, opened her mouth with an expression that she didn’t understand.
“Me, the time when I was afraid of bugs has already passed a long time ago? Why am I afraid of you?”
At the unexpected answer, it was Charlotte’s turn to be dumbfounded this time. It was because he read the sincerity from Olivia’s expression when she said that.
The words that the woman had just uttered had a very literal meaning.
Gone are the days of being afraid of bugs. That meant he wasn’t afraid of Charlotte, and he didn’t treat her as anything more than a bug.
It wasn’t the purpose of offending Charlotte by making such a provocation. Deep in her heart, that woman truly thought so.
So it was an even more absurd statement.
“The two of you aren’t going to fight? Then there’s no point in coming here at all. Well, now that I’m here, I’ll have to take Master with me. The house isn’t finished yet, but he’ll say it’s okay. Master is always on my side, huh? . I’m sure it will be.”
Olivia beckoned and the boy’s body floated into the air. The black blood that had been spewing from his mouth stopped as soon as he approached the girl.
The reason for the curse was to make the boy come to Olivia and keep him by her side, so no matter what the process was, the curse disappeared because she had the boy.
Seeing that Olivia was trying to cover the boy’s face, Christine spread her wings made of divine power and jumped at her. In the trajectory that Christine passed through, the aftermath of divine power was scattered.
Serena and Charlotte were hesitant as they were right before they attacked.
As soon as the boy approached that woman, Serena and Charlotte were about to take action, but because Christine ran away, mana nullification was activated and the mana wrapped around her body evaporated.
Even if he urgently raised mana again, he was forced to be one step behind. The two gnashed their teeth as they watched Christine attack from behind with her wings of divine power wide open.
“Oh, am I going to participate too? It’s a bit difficult right now.”
Christine ran away, purifying everything she touched with white flames, and Olivia had a relaxed expression all the time while watching Christine like that.
The word blink of an eye is often used as an idiom, but now is not an idiom, it is really the same as saying it’s time to blink.
It took Christine’s fist to reach Olivia.
A fist with the power to destroy a castle aimed at Olivia’s head, but Olivia loudly refused to prepare for the fist.
He simply thrust his left hand into the trajectory of his fist.
Christine’s regime took a direct hit with her thrusting left hand. Fain! The shockwave that exploded in a circular wave with a roaring sound swept the entire room.
The already precarious walls and floor cracked as if they were about to collapse. An ominous creaking sound was heard everywhere. It didn’t seem like it would last long.
Christine’s fist trembled in her hand. In contrast to such Christine, Olivia did not even flinch.
“Four years…”
The faces of Serena and Charlotte were perplexed.
Not only Charlotte, who was bound by the shackles of nullifying mana, but even Serena, who was able to match her, couldn’t block Christine’s fists with divine power so easily.
In order to stop it somehow, I had to be prepared to have my whole arm smashed the moment I put my hand on the trail.
But that woman was different. It wasn’t enough to block Christine’s fists very easily, and even though she was in direct contact with the divine power, she stood still.
‘If I can use body enhancement, it might boil.’
Serena was surprised by the situation unfolding before her eyes, but she remembered that she could use body enhancement to deal with that girl.
I had to deal with that monstrous power with my bare body, so I was frequently caught in my ankle. To be honest, if it wasn’t for the mana nullification, I was confident that I wouldn’t be pushed back even if I had a power fight with Christine.
While Serena analyzed Olivia’s history in her head, Charlotte couldn’t hide her astonishment in a different way.
‘It was obviously black magic.’
black magic.
It was the magic that her husband had gone crazy saying he needed to get rid of, the magic that uses black mana, and the magic that Charlotte had been told not to understand and never even try to understand.
But that woman used such black magic. This was the reason why Charlotte couldn’t hide her surprise.
Originally, it would have been normal for Charlotte to stop feeling only the sense that something foreign mana was being used.
However, through the explanation given by Jiabi at the black magic workshop, she vaguely accepted the concept, and as a result, she was able to recognize black mana.
It would have been terrifying if the boy found out.
‘Since she used black magic, that woman… … .’
Perhaps, that short-haired black woman had something to do with why the boy was so wary of black magic.
This seemed like something worth pursuing after cutting off that bitch’s head and sticking her head in.
Christine didn’t care that her fists were blocked so easily. The attention was focused exclusively on the boy who was about to come into contact with Olivia.
“What have you done to my god?”
“God? Who? My teacher? Ahang, somehow. Every time I hear that god, I feel bad. Is that why?”
“Please shut that tongue before you pluck it out. What kind of safety are you teasing a filthy tongue when it comes to wicked heretics?”
“Ah, this concept looks interesting. I’ll try it with Master later. It’s a nun giving her body to the priest in the confessional room, it looks pretty good. Yes. Master will definitely like it.”
Christine raised her divine power as if she had nothing to say to Ethan. A pair of wings unfolded behind his back, full of divine power, fluttered.
At that moment, Olivia’s expression changed dramatically when she saw the pair of wings emitting holy light. The subtle smile that hung on his lips disappeared.
The black pupil swiped the wings made of divine power.
“Is this… divine power? I didn’t know until just now because it was so weak, but now I see it. Yes, it’s divine power. I’m sure.”
He never lost his composure, yet his bouncy tone cooled down and contained a chilly chill. There was a deep darkness in Christine’s eyes.
Power went into his left hand, which had clenched into a fist. Christine’s arm began twisting slightly in a clockwise direction.
“I feel bad. Really.”
What happened right after those words, even Charlotte was not aware of for a moment.
Even her brain, which could find a moment in a moment of time if it wanted to, couldn’t keep up with the situation. A gust of wind blew in through the open hole.
I remembered what had just happened.
I confirmed that the girl who changed the mood in an instant kicked Christine in the stomach with her right foot, but what next? Charlotte’s eyes looked around the messy room.
A large hole was drilled in the floor in an oblique, diagonal direction, and the hole continued to the outside of the castle. Perhaps this place, and even the floor downstairs, were all destroyed.
One wall of the castle had completely collapsed, revealing a blue sky. This is where the wind starts to blow.
Her ears, whose hearing had been greatly amplified by the strengthening of her body, picked up the sounds coming through the hole in the wall. He was confused when he saw something that suddenly jumped out of the castle and crashed into the ground.
I couldn’t see where Christine had gone. The divine power that was on the verge of filling the room had long since disappeared.
It was now that Charlotte fully understood what had just unfolded.
That black, short-haired woman kicked Christine back. Christine, who was kicked without a chance to react, smashed the whole castle and flew away and landed on the side of the road.
Serena and Charlotte raised their mana to the maximum regardless of who said it first. Even with those two in front of them, Olivia kept her head down and muttered something.
“I hate those things. I don’t like them. Master is mine. It should be mine. Those are—”
Head lifted. Olivia’s eyes turned to the remaining Serena and Charlotte.
“Okay, shall we just kill you guys here too?”
