I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive

22. Strolling in the Abyss

Meanwhile, on the other side.

As one team member after another… no, it should be monsters, fell, Arthur keenly noticed: everyone’s pace was slowing down, the formation was increasingly constricting, and even some “monsters” were neglected, allowed to escape. At the same time, some meaningless sacrifices began to appear; there were always a few foolish kids who didn’t listen to him, thinking he was some great hero, insisting on charging in recklessly, and as a result… they couldn’t even take a few steps before… becoming enemies.

Ha! Serves them right—

However, it was about time to “change strategies”! Arthur felt that if this continued, there would be more and more fools.

“Plan B!”

With Arthur’s shout, the members of the knight order, who were originally “constricting” their formation, seemed to receive some command, abandoning their slow advance and starting to scatter!

This tactic was simple: except for the necessary personnel, all other team members became bait, maximizing the protection of their path to the source of the “chaos,” ensuring they wouldn’t encounter any more “monsters.” After all, the current “balance” had reached a critical point; if they continued, the sacrifices would only increase, and the pace of advancement would only slow down.

This was a genius tactic he came up with! Although, watching everyone’s figures unhesitatingly scatter to “draw the monsters,” Arthur had to admit he felt a bit displeased for a moment.

“Hey! Everyone!”

Of course, it’s just a moment of displeasure. If I hesitate here, the next fool to become one will be myself!

“Next time, let’s go on an expedition together—no one left behind.”

The response from the team members was a wave of hands. After a moment of hesitation, Arthur immediately took his only remaining vice-captain, Nings·Sabi, to protect himself, and at the moment when everyone pulled away the “monster,” they charged forward at full speed toward the “danger” they had sensed.

In his ears, he heard the voice of that idiot.

“Lance, don’t hesitate.”

“Huh? Why would I hesitate in front of a wild monster? Just split it in half and be done with it!”

The fairy scoffed.

Today’s “subjugation” was essentially leading everyone to their deaths. As long as everyone died in an orderly fashion and in a unique way, then… we could fulfill our “mission” as desired.

After all, perhaps because I am a “fairy,” the impact of this “chaos” on me isn’t that severe. Although some bad thoughts occasionally pop up in my mind, at least I can still control myself and realize that this is “wrong.”

Thus, my mission in this “subjugation” naturally became the last one—to eliminate the root of the “chaos” and split a once-mighty “captain” in half with a single blow. And then? Then, of course, it would be game over; otherwise, wouldn’t I become the one just trying to survive?

Soon, the vice-captain’s response reached his ears.

“I hope you can do it. After that… just run far away. To be honest, I don’t want to lay a hand on you.”

“Come on, running far away… I know exactly how much my wife weighs.”

It’s probably impossible to escape. If I don’t risk my life, it’s likely to be in vain because the true form of the “monster” is a level eight powerhouse of the Great Ying Empire—the captain of the Battle Knights, Arthur.

But that’s fine; it’s the perfect ending.

Just as I was about to say something, I turned around and found that the vice-captain had also stopped—figures were darting around them, and he, as the last layer of insurance to protect me, had to “cut off” as well .

But after a brief pause in sight, the fairy never looked back again. Even when a roar like that of a beast soon echoed behind, the fairy quickened his pace to shake it off.

Finally, as the feeling of the “contract” connecting us grew stronger in my heart, a lightsaber appeared out of thin air in the fairy’s hand, slicing through all the surrounding cedars, using the fallen towering trees as barriers and cover.

In the end, with no way to retreat, I stepped into the snowfield where the white snow was falling, the place where that “monster” resided.

It was a monster, yet had the form of a human; it was devoid of reason, yet wore clothing familiar to the fairy; it radiated violence all over, as if the anger ready to destroy everything was about to burst forth, yet it could notice the appearance of this “little ant” in an instant.

Under the wind and snow, within the line of sight, the fairy finally saw the monster that was neither human nor ghost, the “culprit” behind the “disturbance” in Northern Ireland, which had gradually engulfed everyone in the city with feelings of ” chaos.”

It was the leader of the Great Yng Empire’s Knight Order, and also the lord of the Northern Ireland region—Arthur.

It was… the one named “Lance,” a user of the “Sword Fairy,” whose abilities were the ultimate enhancement of strength and skill.

It was her master.

“It’s all your fault. If you weren’t such a waste, how could everyone possibly be ‘infected with chaos’ one after another?”

As she stepped forward, the fairy’s gaze seemed to be stained with a layer of crimson.

But immediately, she chuckled self-deprecatingly: “The closer I get to you, the more intense that feeling becomes. As expected, you are the source of ‘trouble’ and the center of ‘chaos.’ Hey! Make some noise, darling !”

The “monster” looked over! There was a moment of hesitation… how strange!

Only a fool would believe such an illusion and naively think: My master actually remembers me, so I must make my master wake up, boohoo!

Since this woman has already led the “chaos,” who cares if she remembers herself? A single stab, dismember her completely, and she would surely be dead; then the “chaos” would probably be gone. Although this process would definitely not be easy, no one understood how strong this woman was better than the one who had followed her into battle for so long.

But if fear and dread led to a subsequent “giving up,” then she would have no face to meet the other members of the Knight Order.

There was only one chance, because she had only one life. A passionate exchange should be able to send this woman to the West. If she missed this opportunity given by all the members, it would be too pathetic.

The fairy’s lightsaber shone brightly, and soon… her appearance began to change gradually; her indigo short hair grew rapidly, while her body inevitably shrank a bit, and within her eyes, a “sword” had already manifested.

Could it be that she really remembers me? The fairy quickly discovered that the monster in her line of sight was actually staring motionless in this direction. Then… should she greet her?

“Waste of a woman, you don’t think that after reaching this point, I would still cry and beg you to wake up, do you?”

Immediately, the invisible sword energy around her even sliced ​​through the falling snow in half.

“If you really remember me, then obediently let me cut you in half! Master!”

Actually, after reopening the main text, I found it a bit hard to adapt to the new content all at once, but I should have adjusted by now. It’s just that the technique has a bit of a soul flavor; damn it, I clearly wanted to write something lighter.

The character design will be released soon, but it’s just for this fairy.
