I Became the Dark Wizard Who Rules Over the Heroines - Chapter 75
75 – Flame-2
“Well, you’re a lord who doesn’t know the manners… “
When the knight in charge of the rear guard says, ‘Does it really matter if I take it down?’, Isn’t it natural to reply, ‘There’s nothing to be afraid of?’ This is a fact that is also mentioned in chivalric books.
Running away was not a particularly stylish act, but the situation itself of risking one’s life for the master’s purpose did not change.
However, I didn’t think I would lose.
I don’t get tired. No matter how much I run, my energy does not decrease.
‘It may have that power, but…’
The regret has disappeared.
Anxiety and fear. None.
Now that she was gone from the chains that bound her, it seemed like there was nothing that could bring her down.
‘Well, I don’t think I’ll get caught.’
A great fight is important, but more important than that was the master’s orders.
Avoid fighting as much as possible. It’s okay to kill if it’s not absolutely necessary, but if you can, move in a direction that doesn’t kill the enemy.
Life is the most important. I don’t mind surrendering if necessary.
‘Wow, what a merciful lord I am…’
Olivia knew more about her condition than anyone else.
If he gives an order, you will not be able to refuse it. Once she declares that she will give everything, it doesn’t matter how he uses her life.
However, he was trying to protect her life. Maybe even more than she was before she died.
Rather than trying to give up on her knighthood, she recognized her ‘worth her as a knight’.
He held her heart back when she thought she was hoping for something other than fame.
There was no way Olivia, who served someone like that, would be defeated.
“Ugh!”
Olivia, lost in her thoughts, hit her head on the silver barrier that stretched out in front of her.
“Running away ends there.”
The Holy Knights of the Heresy Inquisition were surrounding her.
“There were more than one or two people who tried to run away like you… What is it?”
Darkness was covering their eyes.
It was only after the Paladins caught a being ‘fleeing in the darkness, emitting excessively strong magical energy’ that they realized that what was at the end was far from their goal.
“Ha, there’s only one! It looks like the warlock and the dark priest have already run away!”
“Surely, the information we had would have said that he was an ordinary knight… Ha, that’s okay. There’s no way that someone who hangs out with those guys is really an ordinary knight.”
The leader quickly assessed the situation and glared at Olivia as if she were going to kill her.
“This bitch was a decoy. The real one ran away. Only one person remains, and the rest go to find Wade!”
“Oh, that doesn’t work.”
Olivia aimed her sword with a relaxed smile.
“What is that…Wow!”
The barrier containing the power of perm, which the Inquisition boasts, had already been cut and torn by Olivia’s sword
However, she did not run away.
‘It’s a little against the orders, but it was my job to tie them up…’
The lord was truly worried about fighting the enemy. A knight among knights, a person who thought, even before the fight with the princess, ‘Won’t I win at some point?’
The person he will face will be an enemy so powerful that it cannot be compared to this ‘normally strong’ paladin.
You must do your best. These people should not be allowed to mess with his nerves.
At least, she should be able to capture the eight paladins here by herself.
“Do you think you will let me harm my master?”
“…You’re pretending to be a knight while being the devil’s mistress.”
“It’s not an imitation of a knight.”
Olivia’s sword was shining brilliantly.
“A knight. An honorable knight who serves his lord.”
He always thought he should be that kind of person, but he has never dared to say this.
He was always embarrassed. He was always anxious. That’s why he was even more obsessed with honor and yearned for power.
But now, Olivia was able to say that confidently.
“Go for it. I won’t let a single one escape.”
“…What should I do?”
“There’s nothing we can do. Let’s do it safely. Let’s take down that evil bitch together and move on together.”
The leader’s mind spun quickly.
‘I’ve already broken the barrier. I may have used too much force in the process, but I am not an easy opponent.’
The eight Holy Knights each offered a prayer. A sacred spell was cast to protect them from all magic, evil spirits, and evil energies.
‘Besides, you can run away. We can’t use this barrier again and again during the battle, so if we leave a minimum amount of strength to deal with that bitch… When she gets to a disadvantage, she’ll run away. >
“Your opponent is me, knight Olivia!”
‘Rather than dealing with a black magician for a special purpose, it is better to defeat an evil that can be killed right away!’
“Yes. I will kill you, and prevent that evil from spreading in this world!”
The leader’s sword flew towards Olivia.
Although he was still a novice compared to Wilhelm, the leader was also a skilled paladin who had killed hundreds of warlocks.
No matter how strong the Dark Knight was, he could be sure that he would not be able to block his sword.
“Ha!”
And then, Olivia’s sword collided with his sword
‘…Huh?’
With perfect posture, flawless technique, and great strength.
As if the swords of a knight and a knight clashed.

“It’s me! Lilian! It’s Lilian!”
The emotion Lilian felt upon seeing that arrow was not fear or terror, but joy.
Although the material of the arrow was different from what she remembered. All the trees in the Hergan Forest were burned, so it couldn’t be the same.
However, the type of arrow, the decoration, and even the sound of the arrow flying all felt familiar. This was an arrow from the Hergan Forest elves.
“Yes, I know. Lilian. Then why are you on the same side as the warlock?”
“…Huh?”
Her colleagues were looking at her with cold eyes.
“What are you talking about! Didn’t you see that I just knocked out Kelin? She was trying to run to Katharine while she was talking nonsense-“
“Isn’t Wade a warlock?”
“That’s-“
No matter how elf they were, there was no way they wouldn’t know that ‘Wade and Lilian were on the same team.’
Lilian, with a puzzled expression, looked at them blankly.
“So does Kelin. You don’t even resent her? How can she be on the same side as the woman who fought alongside Katharine?”
“Well, I didn’t know at the time! I didn’t even know she was this deeply involved woman…”
“How can she still keep her alive?”
Her colleagues are criticizing her.
“This must have been Katharine’s doing! Her problem her is Katarin, not her her her her her her her her her. We need to find her right now-“
‘…Oh?’
Lilian felt a strange sense of discomfort.
I don’t mean it. Neither the cold gaze nor the derogatory words contained his true intentions
The elf who had spoken her her her interrogation her she was somehow able to pull off her her her skillful her performance her her her, but some of the elves standing behind her could not hide their trembling gaze her of her her.
“If you’re really on our side, come here right now and shoot your arrows-“
“Wait a minute.”
Lilian regained her composure.
“We have to save people first! Look, there are people still burning!”
Even while they were talking, the screaming did not stop.
Claire’s recovery spell brought dying people back to life, but it could not completely relieve their pain.
Even if she wasn’t the one revealing her location, countless victims were screaming as they were engulfed in flames, letting them know that she was here.
“We have to stop it. Even just one person…”
I can’t let others experience this pain.
Even if the truth is revealed later, the dying people must be saved right now. We must protect what has not yet been burned.
Lilian believed that and tried to save the burning people by moving her body again.
“Lilian, that’s…”
The elves were still aiming their arrows at them, but they could not hide their embarrassment.
“…Let’s not play around with empty words. Lilian is our comrade. If we tell him sincerely, he will definitely acknowledge us.”
“This voice is-“
Lilian heard a familiar voice.
There was only one elf elder present.
A person who risked his life to fight against the invaders despite waking up from a hospital bed.
A person who didn’t hesitate to throw himself into the burning black mud to save even one more elf.
“Carbossa…Elder?”
An elf giving off a terrifying atmosphere approached Lilian.
Her skin was stained with black magic. There was no new skin growing on the burn marks left behind,
“Okay. It’s been a while, Lilian.”
“Jang, Elder! You’re alive! I missed you…”
There was no way Lilian could forget her.
Because he was the one who sent her out of the forest when she was unable to come to her senses until her last moments of her, and then went into her burning forest himself.
Karbossa opened her mouth.
“Lilian. You are right. Wade is not the real culprit in this incident. Even if you are cooperating with Kellin for the same goal, I have no intention of blaming you for that.”
“Well, that’s true too…Elder?”
“We are collaborating with warlocks, too.”
Lilian’s expression froze.
“…Yes?”
“This fire was created by Catherine.”
Only then, Lilian was able to look into Carbossa’s eyes
In the eyes of the elf who was so noble, a fire mixed with black mud was burning.
The most terrible, disgusting and hot fire of hatred and despair.
