I Became a Dark Knight the Empress Is Obsessed With - I Became a Dark Knight the Empress Is Obsessed With chapter 120

120 – Apostle of Lust – (4)

Whoop!

“What is that again!”

That gigantic body that filled the night sky. As he spread his wings the size of a mountain, strong winds that blew his body away hit his whole body. He was speechless at that overwhelming appearance, regardless of whether he was an enemy or an ally.

I was also quite embarrassed.

Dragon? Wasn’t there such a species to raise an empress? The phrase that appears during loading explains that dragons became extinct in a war with the gods a long time ago.

As this is a reliable system message, the phrase cannot be considered false.

Then, what is that dragon flapping its dazzling black wings right in front of my eyes?

It was none other than Merta who resolved the question.

“Uh, why is the highest level spirit here!”

At the sound of her screaming in astonishment, I hurriedly turned around and looked at her.

“The highest level spirit?”

“Yes, yes. Denebris, the highest rank Dark Spirit. It is said that he was punished by being imprisoned in the spirit realm for the sin of eating a god during the Age of Gods.”

Merta muttered as her body trembled even as she explained that.

“…… I thought it was just a legend.”

“For such a large man, he is a spirit.”

“It’s the highest level spirit. The strongest family right under the spirit king. In order to manifest in the real world, it would require a huge amount of mana.”

“Can you fight?”

“I don’t know. Although it is said that her power has been greatly weakened by receiving her brother…….”

In the end, it was said that even though it was weakened, it was once a powerful spirit enough to kill a god.

Dealing with that is going to be difficult, even for a young person.

On the contrary, I started to worry about whether I would be able to endure it.

“Pedras is a baby, I was preparing something great.”

It’s completely new.

No, should I say dragons?

It was a tongue-in-cheek moment.

Guuu!

Suddenly, Denebris, who was flying in the air, straightened his huge body.

The huge head rose vertically, and huge concentric circles gradually began to spread out from the straight scales hanging at the nape of the neck.

“…… Me, that.”

Sensing her abnormality, YuRia opened her eyes.

Then, the spreading concentric circles suddenly lost their light. And sharp scales began pouring down from the pitch-black cavity like a torrential downpour.

Knives are pouring in without classifying friends. If you get hit directly, it will be difficult to preserve your life.

“Kuu! Damage!”

I shouted at the piles of high-ranking land spirits flying at the same time, and I rammed all the mana in Ernst.

“Geep!”

Then he grabbed Yuria by the neck and dragged her away.

Then, he swung her sword straight up over her head. Because it was a sword attack with all his might, the flying stones and scales were swept away by the intense moonlight mana.

Lyncia and Merta’s spiritism also helped.

But not all was shaken off.

“Kuu!”

“Freed!”

One of the scales that penetrated between the attacks became lodged in my shoulder blade.

To make matters worse, the stone thrown by Gaiakan touched the already weakened ground, and the entire basin, centered on where we were standing, began to sink.

Rumble!

“Kuu! Wig!”

Eventually, Lin Xia called Wig to ease the shock of her fall.

After a few rolls on the ground, we were able to stop.

“Freed! Wounds!”

“Whoa. It’s okay. I just have to endure it.”

“…… Ugh.”

Lin Xia, covered in her dust, hurriedly ran over and touched my shoulder. She twisted her face as if her own pain were mine.

I bit my lip hard and endured the pain.

The speed of the scales has been greatly reduced through joint work, so they are not deeply embedded.

Maybe the tendon is broken.

Fortunately, there was no major obstacle to swinging the sword.

While Xia Lin took out her handkerchief and stopped the bleeding on her wound, I looked at the situation.

It seemed that the church’s priests and other troops were swept away by the recent wide-area attack. The higher level land spirits also disappeared somewhere.

Quguaguagua!

Meanwhile, a catastrophe was unfolding in the sky.

Denebris was spreading destruction like a fish out of water, and in response, Seira deployed dozens of different types of magic. The battle was taking place high in the sky, but the vibrations could be felt even here on the ground.

A battle between a jet-black dragon and a golden mage. This reminded me of the War of the Gods.

And while I watched it, I suddenly noticed something strange.

“…… What about Seneca?”

The apostle of lust, Seneca, was nowhere to be seen.

I had been confronting Seira until just now, but it was nowhere to be seen now.

And.

As if in response to my question, a light pink mist raged in the space opposite us.

“…… Whoa, I’m sweating to hold on, hahahaha. Also Archmage. I almost died. Look at this. Her bangs are singed.”

And of course, the person who appeared through the fog was the apostle of lust, Seneca.

While tying her bangs, she smiled brightly as our eyes met.

“I finally met you, Cletane’s brother.”

“I didn’t want to meet you.”

“I wanted to meet you. We had something to settle. Ah, including YuRia over there.”

Seneca raised her finger and pointed in the direction of Yuria.

Then, YuRia’s expression darkened noticeably.

I picked Ernst.

“Wow, are you completely hostile? It hurts a little bit.”

“… ….”

Seneca, the apostle of lust. According to Yuria, she is the youngest among the apostles. She was told that because of that, she had the weakest power.

And Ernst, who was given by Lynceia, is a sword containing the power of the creator god. Just like when fighting Atral, it will have a great effect on Seneca.

For now, it seemed doable.

“What the hell did you do?”

“Which one?”

From noble mtl dot com

“That’s it.”

I pointed at the sky with the tip of my sword.

The fight between Denebris and Seira. Seeing this, Seneca shrugged her shoulders.

“I literally summoned the highest level spirit that had been imprisoned in the spirit realm. If it were me alone, it would have been impossible to control, but Mr. Pedras is an expert at this.”

“… ….”

“Of course, it doesn’t take a lot of mana to manifest for that long, but…… It should be enough to deal with the Archmage.”

Seneca muttered that and then, startled, tapped his own mouth.

“Useless words. Because this guy’s mouth is straight.”

“Huh.”

“Anyway, I was a little surprised. I thought I’d be eaten right away, but they fought so well. After all, it deserves to be called the strongest archmage, the mistake of causality. Or is that Mr. Dragon weakened by his long punishment?”

She muttered to herself and shook her head.

“It doesn’t matter what it is. There is no one to stop me now, and there are two traitors in front of her.”

“Keugh.”

As Yuria groaned, Seneca opened her eyes.

“It looks like you enjoyed the short-lived happiness, Yuria. Cleta was disappointed. But what can I do? This is the path we must walk.”

“I, I… ….”

“I don’t listen to excuses. Is that our way?”

As if the conversation was over, Seneca clapped her hands, and in time, the purple mist gathered behind her and formed the shape of wings.

It was like looking at a moth.

“By the way, I only thought about facing two traitors…….”

Seneca’s gaze gradually moved to the side, and then it was fixed on Lyncia, who was pressing her wound on mine.

“I didn’t know there would be an empress. Should I say that it was a blessing that came rolling in? If this happens, I might be the final winner, hahahaha.”

“Do you think I will leave it like that?”

I took Ernst out.

As if this was an expected reaction, Seneca smiled, exposing her gums.

Then, she flapped her wings in time with her gesture and began to spray a purple mist over her son-in-law.

“This.”

“It’s a paralyzing fog! Seneca’s specialty!”

Yes. I know for sure you shouldn’t drink that.

I took Yuria’s scarf and put it around her mouth. Maybe because I was wet with sweat, it smelled slightly sour.

“Wig, take care of it!”

Lynxia summoned Wig and created a wind, which sent Seneca blowing the mist far away.

In other words, now is a golden opportunity.

I hastily spurred her on the ground and ran to Seneca with her arms outstretched.

Seneca used her authority to attack, but as soon as she touched the royal treasured sword Ernst, she vanished as if oxidized.

Embarrassment passed across her face.

Sure!

And in the blink of an eye, I approached right in front of Seneca and struck Ernst straight down.

However.

At that moment, Yuria shouted.

“Be careful!”

“What?”

“The bomb used in the National Day raid! That…… !”

Before he could finish his words, Seneca’s wings suddenly began to glow.

Quaguaguawang!

And without knowing why, her eyes lit up.

The last thing I saw was Seneca’s smile of repentance.

“…… Why are you like that?”

The red-haired knight, Lautrec, who was looking up at the moon, suddenly lowered his eyes when he heard a voice calling him.

Then a woman with golden hair in a blue cloth stood right behind me.

“Milia. Did you follow me?”

“I came here because I was worried because he suddenly ran out. Is something going on?”

“…… Well.”

Lautrec leaned on his balcony with a big smile. In front of his eyes was the inner palace of the imperial palace.

In preparation for any unforeseen circumstances, the elite guards, including Yuriad, were guarding the front of Lucy’s sleeping quarters.

“Are you worried too? Is that girl named Yuria?”

“… ….”

Milia said, as if she had inferred an answer from Lautrec’s silence.

“Lord Lautrec seems more innocent than I thought.”

“…… Grunt.”

When Lautrec clicked her tongue, Milia giggled like a child, as if she liked the initiative of the conversation she hadn’t had in a long time.

“I didn’t know Lord Lautrec would have that taste. That girl looks younger than I thought.”

“What do you mean?”

“I thought Sir Lautrec was the type of woman like my sister. Because she has been like that since she was a child.”

At that, Lautrec slipped Milia and narrowed her eyes.

As ever, Milia didn’t notice.

She had a past that, for him, she was trying to hide.

“Isn’t that the same for you, Millia? She was the freed she hated so much. She seems to trust me now. No, it looks a little more special, but what the hell happened? Did something happen during the work meeting?”

“Why are you saying that now?”

“Are you sure you like it?”

“…… It’s not like that.”

At Lautrec’s words, Milia slightly lowered her head, and she said.

Of course, her shoulders were trembling, her hands clasped together on her belly. The reaction was really enjoyable from Lautrec’s point of view.

“So why are you doing that?”

Milia turned the topic.

Lautrec let out a cold breath in reply.

“It’s just that I’m anxious.”

“… ….”

“Something is strange these days. Perhaps because the apostle’s plan is advancing, it seems that her head is also complicated. You might say that you are dizzy, or that you are out of your mind.”

In fact, it had been several days since communication with Sylphy was cut off. Other spirits he contracted with were the same.

When I dreamed, the burning imperial palace flickered in front of me along with Sylphy’s screams.

Recently, I seem to have been drunk from such a nightmare, and there was a time when I unconsciously broke the mirror in my room.

Without expressing it, Lautrec was uneasy.

Anxiety that I won’t be able to control my body at all. It was causing him considerable fear.

“Milia.”

“Yes.”

“For now, lock me up. Take the sword Since the dungeon has collapsed, put it in the cellar of the Outer Castle. Otherwise, it doesn’t matter where the Great Duke of Winter is imprisoned.”

“…… Yes?”

“It’s because I don’t even know what will happen to me. Since this is a request, will you deliver it to Sir Uriad instead?”

This was the best solution.

Lautrec bowed her head and asked, but Millia’s reaction was quite unexpected.

“No.”

“Milia, I am.”

“I don’t care what Lord Lautrec decides. Sir Lautrec is staying here with me. I’ll stay and protect the imperial palace. That is your duty as a Guardian Knight.”

That was not wrong.

Milia’s expression was more serious than ever.

She came right next to Lautrec and leaned on the balcony as she continued her words.

“If Lord Lautrec does what he fears, then I will stop you. I am not weak either. I’ll beat you to the brink of death, and I’ll bring you back somehow. Even if it’s not me, Sir Uriard is there. There is also Eina. There are many other articles.”

“… ….”

“…… Would you not have said? If it is Lord Fried.”

Perhaps it was embarrassing even to herself, Milia smiled brightly.

The appearance of her was a fresh shock to Lautrec. She

Thought she had changed a lot. Lately she’d even thought her guts were unusual, but not to this extent.

Who’s influence?

Lautrec could easily guess.

“I’m sorry. It was a mistake.”

“Yes. We will fight together. No matter how gloomy or difficult the situation is, ‘do something’. Isn’t that what Lord Lautrec said?”

“Huh.”

In the end, Lautrec had no choice but to give up.

I had no intention of forcing my opinions on my juniors who were making such expressions.

“…… You’ve grown a lot, Millia.”

“Because people change. Eureard hardness, Lautreck hardness, and Fried hardness. And…… I am not a child after all.”

As Milia said, she looked at the moon, just as Lautrec looked up.

“I promised you that I would stand shoulder to shoulder with you someday.”

Conversation in the canal.

From then on, Milia believed in everyone and acted faster than anyone else.

It was a night to realize her growth all over again.

“…… Right.”

Lautrec couldn’t help but laugh.
