The Branded Female Fencer

Demon King's Workshop, Part 12 - Pursuit

"You didn't feel alive..."

"Yes. Well done. He said he could have gone home alive."

Elsa and Eliza, who went outside, were taking a breath. There were already about 30 Arnelian Church officials waiting outside calling from nearby branches because they had ordered 'dogs' in advance to call for backup. Either way, the two men who fled the workshop with their lives were unlikely to have the strength to move another step though.

We both mouth the warm drink served to Sister and relieve the tension. But I'm not completely alarmed yet. Now we're letting the knights see that the cave is blocked, but it's not strange that the swordsman should chase us right away. I used quite a bit of gunpowder just now, and Elsa's Delay Spell has been activated because the sand on the hourglass has already fallen off, and I'm sure the workshop had a good chance of destroying it, but I have to hurry and leave this place in case.

"We'll leave here as soon as we've got confirmation. Everybody, get ready!

"Got it!

With Elsa's decree, everyone starts moving tightly. Beside that Elsa, Eliza was shaking small.

"What's wrong, Eliza? Is it still horrible?

"... yes. I was previously told by Alberto, 'I know the qualities of a knight by his powerlessness and what happens after I know the horrors of the battlefield'. I wondered what it would be like to be a knight."

"Right..."

Elsa chooses words carefully. To be honest, Eliza worked without complaint on this assignment. Elsa is impressed that he did well for his inexperience, but I think praising him for letting go might hinder Eliza's growth.

"... well, I think I can give you a point of extension this time. Most importantly, I could go home alive. I also admit that my outlook on enemy power was very sweet. I honestly didn't think there was such a monster."

"Is it about that woman swordsman?

"That's right. How was your impression?

"Right."

A brunette swordsman's face floats in various ways behind Eliza's brain. I'm sure she wasn't all she could do. I guess even the blow that slaps that facility doesn't leave the realm of everyday operations. I didn't know you could do that with a sword. I'm sure that woman swordsman is stronger than anyone else. More than myself, more than Alberto, probably more than Miriazal. The dimensions were too different for Eliza to judge the strength. Eliza shares such honest thoughts.

"Honestly, I don't know. It's just..."

"Just?"

"Intuition, but I thought you might be the strongest swordsman in history. It's unfounded, it's just a thought."

"The Lazar family doesn't call it just a reckoning."

Elsa put her arms together and thought about it. Even though I certainly can't imagine as much strength, if enemies of that level had attacked Arnelia. It wouldn't have been as damaging as the other boy attacked it. Elsa was half-hearted when Miriazal told her that she didn't have any enemies in her waist, but now she can honestly nod.

"(Was it the power of that woman swordsman you should look into? But we are not even comparable. Probably better than Master Miriazal in the way Eliza talks. Harvest even if you just figured that out)"

Elsa will also be ready to withdraw while she reflects on how this mission has been accomplished. Though local knights are handy inside.

"Dear Elsa, there are soldiers out there who were exploring. The cave seems to be completely buried!

"All right, leave a couple of watchmen and retreat once. Place the watch in a tightly visible position with the binoculars and make sure it never comes close. Dragon Pull!"

"Got it!

The knight who came to report comes out of the cave and goes to the waiting knight for a preaching order. Elsa sighs in relief as she sees how it goes. It was a difficult task, but apparently at the time I thought I was going to be able to get home safely this time.

"Ghaaaa!

I heard screaming in my ears. Everyone on the spot turns near the entrance to the screaming cave at the same time.

"What is that!?

The knights scream in unison as they engage in a combat posture. Neither Elsa nor Eliza could believe the sight in front of them.

"Nah..."

"How persistent!

Eliza also shouted, but incredibly there stood Cerberus with one of the knights in his mouth. The effect of the explosion or the body is worn out and the intestines stick out from the belly, but they have no effect on life support itself. I stand firm on that evidence with four legs.

Apparently, the knight with his mouth still has breath, beating up Cerberus weakly in an attempt to let him go, but his teeth just eat in enough to resist and never work. Cerberus also begins to wiggle the knight with his mouth shut, reluctant to be resisted. When the knights and sisters screamed unexpectedly at the blood that was scattered, and the head of the knight clashed into the ground, and the unpleasant sound of a broken neck bone sounded, he stopped the resistance and relaxed.

"Sister Elsa! What is it? Where are you?

One of the knights abhors his voice. I guess I can't believe the sight in front of me.

"... I'd like to hear it from you. Well, Hell's Keeper, no. I don't know what a watchdog is."

"Is this the Rumor Demon King?

"Come on? I don't care. Form a formation now, you're strong!

Elsa's decree tightens everyone's face and forms a circle to surround Cerberus. But it's a knight on a regular mission who's here. Not the elite or temple knights who work at headquarters. For this reason, the colour of fright cannot be hidden in their faces, and even some sisters and monks unfamiliar with the battle lose their hips.

"(I can't help it, even I'm scared. Let's just not get away with it)"

I'm still willing to fight the knights because the commander is the famous Elsa, but to be honest with these knights Elsa couldn't count on it. They have little decent combat experience. As always, it would be about goblins and oak sweeping at best.

Elsa regrets that she didn't bring the elite from HQ, but more or less it's basically a covert action. The fact that we are calling for reinforcements this time is itself close to violating the order, but given the withdrawal, I wanted to make sure. When I saw the cave, Elsa's intuition told me that this mission was not a glimmer. The most dangerous was undeniably far beyond her imagination.

At worst, given the importance of the mandate, we must also consider ourselves withdrawing at the expense of this reinforcement. When I was thinking about such an unpleasant option, I heard an unpleasant tone in my ear from earlier.

"Oh, Dougla, are you kind of weirdly hungry?

"You too, Douglas? Me too."

Two necks extend cockroaches. Those are the orcs I didn't tell you about earlier.

"You guys are really persistent! I'm sick and tired of it."

"Even if they say so, I'm afraid that Ola and the others will do their best to punish Mr. Anomaly."

"Hmm. That one's a dm. Guys, there's no mercy in turning to blame. I'm sure they'll tear us apart alive."

"No, no, I've already been torn apart, so I'm in this body. BE?

"Oh, no. Am I? I don't remember."

Two necks face to face and neck. It is a misguided trick between enemies, but Elsa and Eliza are no longer full of creation. There is no guarantee that we will win. Moreover, Eliza has taken the spare sword out of the luggage she left outside, but not without the double sword. Will a sword pass through the giants of Cerberus?

Honestly, Elsa, who was having trouble with an operation to stand, shouldn't have hesitated. It was Cerberus who moved faster.

"Ugh!

"Gu!"

Raise the loose voice between whether even Dougla and Dougla were surprised, but Cerberus' agility in the vast space slightly exceeds Elsa's expectations. Stepping in in one step, he slaps the knight in front of him with his forefoot and involves several blown knights. At that moment, Cerberus slaps down one of the valiantly slashed knights from the top with his opposite foot and flies him against the rock wall on his foot.

The knights' sword slashes the sky, and Cerberus uses the wall to make a triangular flight and strike the knights from another angle. And when he glued to the head of one of the knights that had fallen, he began to eat. Does Dougla and Dougla also have consciousness closer to that of Porch, and similarly hits the knight's body? Seeing the gushing blood up close, a knight still just held down by his feet screams a semi-frequent scream. But no one had the courage to just wave a sword to help.

And Cerberus turns to another knight at his feet. Seeing it, Eliza snatches the sword of a nearby knight and makes it a good two sword.

"Lend me, I'll do it"

"Eliza, wait!

"I can't wait!

Eliza's responsibility as a knight and her own sense of justice and tiredness speeded up her judgment. Eliza bravely went slaughtered by Cerberus, but the movement was only about half as fast as it was at full speed. He is lightly shrugged, and he plays his sword with his head. Further using Dogra's head like a pendulum, Eliza was jumped on her back.

"Ahhh!

Eliza slammed to the ground with screams. Cerberus jumps on top of it without long hair. He then holds both hands of Eliza with his forelegs and looks down at Eliza from the top.

"Ha, ha!

Eliza tries to escape, but Cerberus is over 4m in size. Once assembled, Eliza's slender arm won't scare you. But Cerberus didn't bite Eliza either, but rather smelled Eliza. Eliza is surprised at how Cerberus looks like that, but as Dougla and Dougla's head stretched out, she began to bite through Eliza's clothes.

"Ah! Do what!

"O, not the will of the oras!

"Porch is on his own!

At that moment, Eliza, Dougla and Dougla noticed at the same time that Porch's breath was unusually rough. It's not that your intestines are sticking out a little or that you're taking damage from the explosion, it's simply that you're excited to recognize Eliza as a female. Dougla and Dougla can somehow tell by their senses because they share their bodies, and Eliza has seen the lower half of Porch. Guess what the beast in front of you is trying to do, and Eliza's face turns bright blue.

"Stop... stop!

"Here, Porch! Though that's just the Oras, if you're doing that now!

"No, you can't. I don't know what to say about this guy!

Gyacha and Dougla and Dougla make a scene, but Elsa thought calmly as she saw the sight.

"(If you keep Eliza down like this, you can have a gap... and the servant keeps his attention until he's in the middle of the act. If I punch one or eight of them in the head at that time and blow it up. But I'm even suspicious if one shot of magic has been restored... so what am I thinking! You can't possibly sacrifice such a young Eliza!? No, but it's not weird that it's been wiped out as it is... damn, what am I supposed to do!?

In Elsa's head, the priority of the mission and the reproach of conscience coincide. It was only then that Elsa was distracted by Elsa's sleeve-pulling presence. Elsa turns again to Eliza's screams.

"No, no! I don't... I don't like this!

Though Eliza was born in Lazar's house and chose the path of taking weapons, its essence was sadly female. Of course, at the same time I wanted to cultivate the sword path, I was a person who thought it wasn't bad to get married and retire at dawn when I had a man I liked and build a happy family as a chaste wife. Because we are still not blessed with such opportunities, love is only about listening to stories and stories, but admiration is like a girl in general.

A ruthless reality that strikes such an Eliza. Although it is something we must be prepared for when a woman loses more than she goes to battlefield, it was a story of a distant world where there was no real sense in Eliza, who had never even taken a crack at the elite of the Temple Knights. Well, if they're human. No way. It's too unrealistic, such as being offended by an unidentified warcraft in front of a fellow knight. It broke Eliza's heart that reality, which she did not imagine, was about to strike herself.

But the pride of the last knight. Although I did not ask for help directly, I could no longer remain calm with Eliza. Elsa pops up without one or two to the screams of Eliza desperately under such a Cerberus.

"Damn! If this happens, I have a rash!

Elsa even forgets to fly instructions to knights around and tries to fly to Cerberus. But the timing is obviously slow.

"Hih!"

It was precisely at that time that Dougla and Dougla's head held down Eliza's thighs and Eliza's purity, which made her unable to move completely, tried to be scattered, that there was a sound coming from over her head.
