Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 159

What woke them up after a long sleep listening to the sound of rain was the voice of a soldier running around the mansion screaming at the top of his voice as if announcing the end of the world.

“Raid! Move towards the main building right now! It’s a real situation! It’s a raid!”

Even though he was in the status of a private soldier, it was an urgent situation, so the sight of being called and seeing without honorifics could be said to be a great event that no one living in the mansion had ever experienced.

Maybe that’s why the knights staying in the mansion quickly put on their armor and ran towards the direction the soldier pointed out instead of catching and threatening the soldiers running around with desperate expressions.

It was quite tense to see five knights running in a row and even hired workers equipped to the same level heading to the same place.

“Huh. What kind of hot-blooded madmen are robbing a noble’s mansion on a rainy day?”

Even in a situation where all the troops were running wild in an emergency that suddenly came in heavy rain, the knight, who was toxic, yawning and wearing armor, came out of the lodging belatedly and grabbed a soldier and asked a question.

“Hey. What’s going on?”

“It’s a red raid! The main gate was destroyed and the soldiers who were dispatched to suppress it were literally slaughtered!”

The knight, who read the fear in the eyes of the enlisted man, who explained in detail whether he had seen the scene himself, felt interest in him in an instant.

It wasn’t a wary reaction at the sight of an ordinary raid, but a feeling of despair swirling in the soldier’s eyes when he saw an opponent he could not defeat no matter what.

“Slaughter? How many came?”

“Ha, that’s one.”

“Han daughter-in-law?”

The knight wasn’t angry or dumbfounded. The tumultuous air, as if a war had broken out, was explaining too much for such an obvious reaction.

This is undeniably a funny thing. The knight’s intuition exclaimed.

“Once this is sorted out, I’ll have to gather the soldiers and retrain them. I should have talked about that first!”

One raided the count’s mansion in the middle of the capital. How could they ignore such an important fact and keep shouting the nonsense of raiding? In a sense of elation that gradually rises at the same time as the energy of sleep is gone, the knight left the private soldier alone and ran towards the main building of the mansion.

It was quite large for a count’s mansion, so even though he strengthened his body using an aura and ran, there was a little distance to the main building. Thanks to that, the knight had to go past the reactions that kept amplifying his expectations until he got there.

But the highlight among them was the faintly heard command from far away.

“Knights! Bring the knights! Soldiers back down! We can’t win!”

“Ha, really. Makes people excited. I’m coming! Get lost!!”

I couldn’t even hear the clashing weapons yet, but the knight seemed to already know who it was.

As soon as I heard the absurd story of a one-man raid, what came to mind was a hot topic who was inflated like a giant monster by the entanglement of truth and rumors.

So I definitely wanted to see it once, but I had no choice but to avoid it. A person who slashed down the rumored young lion of Rudra and defeated even the warrior.

Most of the knights and old men underestimated and looked down on the young heroes’ skills, but the knights who belonged to the ranks of the young heroes never took all these rumors lightly and always waited.

And when he finally arrived at the main building, the knight firmly believed that God had rewarded him for waiting.

Because the rumored hero was there who took the three knights’ pincer attacks with perfect timing to the extent that they could be said to be simultaneous, and slashed their heads one after another.

“Levien’s guillotine. Go to Eldmia!”

“You’re going to Eldmia, but what’s that nickname?”

Unlike the grumpy expression reminiscent of a street bully, the disciplined body and posture are of a kind that cannot be imitated by bullies. The apparent aura was insignificant, but it was no longer a criterion for judgment.

From the front gate far away to the main building of the mansion, we must judge that we have reached this point by scattering numerous sword wounds, corpses, and destruction.

“You don’t seem to care much about your gossip, do you?”

“There’s so much interest in it. But strangely, it didn’t listen to me. I’m starting to wonder why I’m the only one who doesn’t know.”

Only five knights and employees equivalent to them died over ten.

Even so, the knight felt joy at the enemy’s undisturbed breath.

Yes, sword fights are best with people.

“Are you hitting it? Something moves busily, and after you came, the surroundings are quiet for a while?”

Contrary to the heightened emotions of such a knight, Eldmia only tilted her head to the side with a face full of complaints.

“Ah, I don’t like being in the way of a fight.”

“So, leave the son who destroyed the mansion like this and leave people? Were you the strongest here?”

It seemed that the corner of his mouth would get stuck in his ears because he couldn’t keep smiling, but the knight answered while maintaining his composure as much as possible.

“That’s right. I’m the strongest…”

And then, noticing something strange while talking, he frowned and asked again.

“…why the past tense?”

“Why is it in the past tense?”

Eldmia, who showed a devastated reaction as if she was listening to all the stupid questions, inserted the blade of the sword she was holding between her upper right arm and lower arm.

For a moment, I wondered what kind of action it was, but the knight understood the situation only after seeing that his white clothes were stained red because not a single drop of blood had splattered even when he came this far.

Oh, it’s the first time I’ve seen blood wiped like that.

“Now I am here.”

After wiping the blood off the sword, Eldmia replied with a smile as if it was natural.

I don’t know if it was confidence or provocation, but it was enough to make the article pleasant.

“Hahaha! It’s fun! It’s so fun! I’m looking forward to this!”

“I don’t expect much, so let’s finish it quickly.

“Haha!… wouldn’t it? Why?”

“At best I cut you up and went up, but you were on the first floor. It would be embarrassing if you were in the same situation.”

I felt that he was sincere in his remarks about not seeing himself as an adversary, and the pleasant feeling subsided for a moment. As soon as I was about to say something in a stupid mood,

“I’m busy, so let’s finish quickly.”

As if Eldmia had no intention of caring about his feelings, he quickly closed the distance and entered without any warning.

“You’re good at it!”

Because it’s double acceleration, there’s nothing like a surprise attack when there’s a certain distance. However, it was a story that was used only when the difference in skill was clear.

If you have similar skills, you will have to move a little quickly in the end, but you can cope enough. After all, mixing swords at close range is insanely faster.

“Shouldn’t you have a full name, though? Shouldn’t you know the name of the person who will kill you?”

“So you don’t know my name.”

Eldmia’s conversational skills were more annoying than the classic workshops that can only be found in textbooks. The knight, who almost delayed his reaction as he pondered the meaning of his words for a moment, stuck out his tongue and tried to step back to increase the distance.

“Wow, you’re really talkative…”

However, Eldmia, who noticed the movement right away, didn’t even give a moment’s gap and clung to it again and swung her sword. Similarly, an attack that could be included in the textbook. He had seen countless textbook articles on the battlefield, but he had no choice but to stick out his tongue this time.

Can’t you ignore this if it’s fast?

foundation of foundations. That’s why it’s a swordsmanship that focuses only on cutting and stabbing enemies quickly and reliably rather than other miscellaneous techniques or blunders. It was as if I was seeing a skill that anyone could learn and could use universally, but the technology that I thought was just that much had reached the realm of a master.

Even though I know, the attack that moves half a beat faster is fierce.

I heard that he hasn’t even passed the coming-of-age ceremony yet, but at this level of perfection, it’s hard to believe that another soul dwells in a child’s body and has only been digging into swordsmanship for years.

“But…not particularly threatening!”

“I see. Are your weapons good?”

Of course, he was using a sword worthy of being called a famous sword, but the story was so out of the blue that the knight almost fell into trouble again.

Ironically, if Eldmia’s sword didn’t suddenly shine, the reaction would have been delayed while worrying as it was. In the middle, it was accompanied by a strange black flash that accelerated irregularly, and that was honestly a bit threatening

.

It wouldn’t be a big deal if it was normal for her to be slightly distracted, but Eldmia’s skills were the problem.

I didn’t see anything particularly outstanding, and I didn’t feel the gushing aura, but I didn’t back down in the slightest. On the contrary, if you show a gap for a while, there is a tenacity that will come in in an instant, so it’s hard to relax.

Thanks to this, the knight admitted that he needed to work seriously after a long time.

“Let’s catch our breath!”

– Kaang!

Since it was a sword that he swung openly to block, it was an expected result for Eldmia to block it without difficulty. However, even though I swung it with the intention of blowing it away 5 meters, it was surprising that only a little more than half of that was blown away.

And for some reason, Eldmia also showed a surprised expression.

“Are you making room for this at this speed?”

“Because I got used to it. Is it because I’m strong?”

After a long time, the hand holding the sword felt tingling, and the knight finally introduced himself with a feeling of exaltation.

“Even if you look at it like this, there is no one on the front line who doesn’t know Gish Hwimir, the Demon Butcher?

Excellent is right.

Above all, it is hard to believe that such an achievement at that age can be seen with your own eyes. However, death does not approach as time goes by. As long as she jumped into the actual battle, Eldmia was just that much of a warrior. Because among the knights on the front lines, those who couldn’t do as well as me became corpses.

Gish decided to engrave the last lesson with the life of the boy who overconfident in his own abilities and took on an unreasonable challenge.

“Little boy. I’ll show you the skills of a knight who fought the demons and survived.”

“…A demon?”

But why?

“You got the title of butcher against the demons on the frontline?”

Despite hearing what should have been a threat, Eldmia smiled ominously.
