Chapter 91
91 – Tricks and Intrigues (15)
I thought the day would come when we would fight.
Until now, the party was able to be maintained because there was a person who mediated between the two.
But now, there was no one between them.
“Isn’t it the same for you! It would be good if the lord stopped him before he stepped forward himself!”
Erina couldn’t keep her mouth shut at Kayla’s remark.
In the first place, Erina stopped Seohyun from fighting Ragnar. But he ignored her suggestion and couldn’t stop it.
If only she had been stronger herself. Had she taken down Rose in an instant and dealt with Ragnar.
There wouldn’t have been a day when his master collapsed like now.
In fact, with that situation in mind, he stood by and watched the attack on the village.
However, the situation did not go the way Erina wanted.
Contrary to her figure that wiped out the Demon King’s army so far, Erina was struggling with her struggles.
Unlike the monsters that were defeated with a single sword, they delayed their time against the army led by Ragnar.
The result came back like this. Her master, whom she loved, couldn’t open her eyes.
But Erina couldn’t admit it.
“Shut up! None of this would have happened without a b*tch like you!”
She believed that Kayla, at least she was much weaker than she was, didn’t deserve that.
From the beginning, Erina didn’t like Kayla.
She originally came in as her comrades and enemies she had to kill with her own hands.
At one point, she even forcibly made a coercive oath to her master.
She pushes herself away and even wags her tail by his side.
It was all so filthy.
“You caused everything in the first place!”
The same goes for Kyla. She couldn’t hide her displeasure at seeing Erina.
The way he complains or gets irritated like a child every day.
Behavior that always clings to the lord and causes trouble or obstruction.
Even after committing a murder casually, he even showed a shameless attitude.
I didn’t like all of them. Aside from age ties, the two did not match at all from one to ten. It was like a complete contradiction.
“I don’t know why my lord has someone like you by his side.”
“Me too. I don’t understand why they tolerate a b*tch like you.”
“At least I don’t despise my lord like you.”
“When did I say I ignored Seohyun… !”
“It is still the same now. At least unlike you, I believe in my lord.”
Kayla has a realization. The fact that when I get really angry, I become calm rather than excited.
At least I didn’t want to show my ugly screams or squawks like my opponent.
“I believe… ?”
At Kayla’s words, Erina laughed and sneered.
“So you don’t know anything.”
This world was dangerous. Numerous death threats lurked.
The person who brought Seohyun into this world was herself. And the only person who could protect him was himself.
Even if he hates it, even if he tries to get away with it.
In the end, he had to protect himself. He always had to be there to watch.
But Kayla had the exact opposite idea.
“You are blocking the lord’s path.”
“Better than a bunch of useless baggage. Is not it?”
“Don’t wander around the lord and leave.”
“That’s what I’m going to say… ! Get out of here right now!”
In an extremely cold atmosphere, the two faced each other.
The first person to move was Erina. She reached out her hand to grab Kayla’s neck.
But Kayla, who had already been beaten, did not stand still. She quickly turned her head and escaped her grasp.
Kayla spun her body and slammed her foot. However, Erina’s reaction was quick. She raised her guard to block her kick and put her hand on the sword at her waist.
“You think you can beat me…?”
Kyla knew that too. It won’t be easy for her to defeat Erina. She has already been defeated once.
But she had a chance. She promised herself that at least she wouldn’t be overpowered like the last time.
“You won’t know until you try.”
Blue lightning flashed in the air along with the longsword. Conversely, a spark rose in Kayla’s hand.
The flames soared in the huge magic circle. The fire moths were scattered along with a huge pillar of fire.
Erina was overcome with fear that could swallow her everything. She must have hurt her at least, thought Kayla.
But it was a mistake. The longsword shone in the rising pillar of fire. Sparks emanated from the surrounding space, and negatively charged currents burned.
A crack appeared in the air. Arson was cut in half with a bloody black wind.
Erina’s expression was revealed after tearing the flames. Her face, contorted by her contempt and rage, was full of murder and intimidation.
Before I knew it, she was holding a dagger in her left hand. She slouched and leaned over, her longsword touching the floor.
“You started first.”
“It’s all your fault.”
Kayla corrected her posture. Realizing that she had no chance in a hand-to-hand fight, she walked away.
But she couldn’t get away. Erina caught up in an instant and swung her longsword.
She quickly cast defense magic and blocked her longsword.
Chaeng!
Kayla’s hand was flooded with lightning as the blade slammed into her shield. Enduring the pain of burning her arm, she unfolded her magic circle.
‘It’s impossible to widen the distance anyway.’
It wasn’t easy to get away from Erina. However, she had a habit of overconfident and rushing at her blindly.
I had to dig into her gaps and aim for her gaps. Just once, she had to take a chance.
Kayla grabbed a small ember and faced it head-on. The blade, which stabbed her straight through, grazed Kayla’s cheek.
A stinging spark brushed Kayla’s shoulder. The pain pierced her so much that her bones rang.
‘There is only now…!’
She gritted her teeth and endured her pain. In her momentary gap, she thrust her fist into Erina’s abdomen.
“hehehe…!?”
Erina’s body flinched and trembled. When the small flame touched Erina’s belly, it burned hot.
Perong!
A huge arson broke out. A pillar of fire shot up with the explosion. No matter how much Erina is, if she gets swept away by the explosion, she won’t be fine.
However, Erina did not collapse. He held her hunched over while holding her stomach.
Kyla was also not safe. Red blood flowed down her white face. He left a deep scar on his cheek.
Grabbing at her throbbing scar, she barely got herself up. The match has not yet been won.
Even if Erina caught her guard, she was able to compete with her on an equal footing for the first time.
If we continued to push forward, the whereabouts of Seungri would be unknown.
However, in the rising heat, an unexpected voice was heard.
“Stop it!!”
Celica’s screams echoed throughout the monastery. Kyla was taken aback and turned to her side. Erina also slowly turned her head in the direction from which her voice had sounded.
Celica looked at the two with a shocked face.
A messed up garden. Erina holding her sword and Kayla bleeding her.
Up until yesterday, my comrades, who were on the verge of life and death, were fighting to the death.
It wasn’t just an argument or fight. It was a battle between life and death.
It was unclear what happened between the two, but Celica couldn’t just sit back and watch.
“Why, why are you fighting! They are all colleagues!”
“I don’t need to know.”
Goose bumps ran down Celica’s spine at the cold tone she had never heard before.
Even Kayla firmly shut her mouth. With a bitter expression on her face, she ignored Celica’s words.
“Please think of Seohyun. This is not the time to fight each other!”
Erina’s body trembled for a moment at her name Seohyun, but she still did not lower her sword.
Rather, he held on firmly and aimed at Kayla. In the nerve war that started again, Kayla turned her back on Celica and said.
“Lady Celica. Please enter the monastery.”
“No! Please please! Please put down your weapon!”
Despite Celica’s earnest dissuade, the two did not back down. The fight that had already begun could no longer be stopped.
Until one collapsed, the two did not intend to stop.
As electricity passed through Erina’s longsword, a magic circle spread in Kayla’s hand. During the confrontation that ensued, Celica approached Kayla and grabbed her arm.
“Lady Kayla. Please…!”
“Lady Celica! Dangerous!”
The moment you look away, Erina will come in looking for her gap. Kayla instinctively deployed her shield to protect Celica.
But Erina didn’t move.
Her hand was on Erina’s shoulder. Only then did she notice the presence of a person behind her.
From noble mtl dot com
“Erina. Stop.”
A person who can stop the two of them in a situation where they are on the verge has returned.
