57. Elite Wild Monster King

In this brief interlude, the Insight Fairy Icaros transformed into a silvery stream of light and flew toward Kephir’s body. Although this wasn’t Icaros directly acknowledging Kephir as her master, given the current situation, I had no complaints!

Kephir had obtained Icaros’s power, and now, it was up to me to provide her with the “manual” for this power in a short amount of time!

【Insight Fairy Icaros: Her power allows one to see all things without concealment, including an analysis of enemies’ strengths and weaknesses.】

The lending of Icaros’s power also came with more scripts about her on my end. After silently marveling, “This really is some ‘black technology’ power,” I couldn’t afford to be careless and immediately shouted to Kephir!

“Icaros can help you identify ‘weaknesses’; use this to deal with Magnus’s defenses!”

As for the other aspects, I didn’t need to remind her, because it was Kephir who was fighting Ludwig. I believed, and was certain, that she could protect her “script.” The “protagonist” is fundamentally different from someone like me who takes shortcuts; they can change the narrative!

After a brief pause, Kephir’s counterattack was the best response to my reminder! What exactly Icaros had alerted Kephir to, I naturally couldn’t know, but after regrouping, Kephir was no longer just a “passive target”!

Just as Ludwig had told Kephir earlier: battles are inherently unfair, so this time it was Kephir’s turn to have the “advantage”!

Leveraging the absolute advantage of having a fairy, Kephir unleashed all the fairy powers she had acquired. Whether it was the Ice Fairy Alsas, the Thunder Fairy Zous, or the Moon Fairy Elisse, the colorful powers of the fairies were all utilized by Kephir. Finally, under the guidance of the Insight Fairy Icaros, she sought out Ludwig’s “weakness” from various angles.

Even the Sword Saint, who had surpassed the ninth tier, surely couldn’t be without weaknesses, right?

“!”

As she sidestepped a bolt of lightning, the Moonlight Cannon unleashed a torrent of lasers, this time tearing a piece from the cloak that enveloped Ludwig!

Though Kephir had finally gained the upper hand in her battle against the Sword Saint, I couldn’t feel happy about it at all! After all… the script hadn’t changed!

The script where Kefer wins has yet to appear! The absence of this script only indicates that Ludwig still has more power left untapped!

Not to mention that at this moment, her expression not only showed no signs of retreat but rather… became even more excited!

“That’s… that’s the feeling, Kefer! That’s why I said you’re not a bother at all, because only you, right now, are worthy of my sword!”

Tsk, just how much strength does this “wild monster” still hide!?

I wanted to remind Kefer not to get too “carried away,” but the next moment, Ludwig seemed to have no intention of attacking anymore. After merging her dual swords back into that “giant sword,” she executed a horizontal slash that forced Kefer back, and then she leaped aside, dragging the giant sword with her.

It was as if Ludwig had switched states, her usual lazy and bored expression returning to her face.

“Although I wanted to keep talking like just now, well…”

After taking a careful look at Kefer, Ludwig scratched her head. “But let’s call it a day here, Kefer.”

“Wait…”

“Not waiting~ Because if we continue, things will only get more troublesome, and it has nothing to do with what I find interesting. It seems Magnus and I have… been exposed. Staying here will become super troublesome, so I’ll take my leave first~”

As she spoke, Ludwig waved her hand, and suddenly a “rift” appeared in the air beside her, large enough for her to jump into. She first shoved her giant sword inside, then without hesitation, stepped in with one leg.

“Later, I’ll pick a good time for us to do something not troublesome~ Ke·Fe·Er~”

【Ludwig and Magnus plan to escape!】

The script has appeared, and they intend to make a run for it! The trouble is: all the “obstacles” I had planned to set up are rendered completely ineffective by Ludwig’s casually summoned “door,” even if their goal of destroying Icarus fails, Ludwig can still leisurely escape amidst the pursuit of others!

Kefer certainly wouldn’t be pleased with this! But just as she instinctively planned to chase after them, a dangerous content suddenly popped up in my script that I couldn’t ignore!

【Kefer collapses due to insufficient magical power!】

Tsk, Kefer!! You clearly can’t hold on any longer, why didn’t you tell me!

“Kefer, don’t move!”

I hurriedly called out, but it was too late. Kefer, stepping forward, seemed too tense about Ludwig’s presence to care about her own body’s limits. After a moment of swaying, she fell forward! Fortunately, I had seen the script early; I rushed forward and caught her just before she hit the ground, preventing the debris from damaging my dear fiancée’s face.

Ludwig, who witnessed all of this, scratched her head in annoyance, clearly having noticed Kefer’s abnormal state long ago.

I guess she was just waiting for the right moment to leave! Is this considered our “get out of jail free” card!? Even though I know that’s the case, it still annoys me!

“That’s why I said I didn’t want to deal with so many troublesome things, O’Keefe. You’d better take good care of her~ She’s one of the few ‘pleasures’ I’ve had lately.”

Then, without giving me a chance to respond, Ludwig jumped straight into the rift she had opened, and with the rift closing, she simply vanished from our sight!

Normally, I would have immediately checked the script to find out what information I could gather about Ludwig’s departure, but right now, I couldn’t care less about that! What worried me the most was Kephir!

【Kephir collapsed due to insufficient magical power.】

【Kephir is fine, just needs to rest.】

【Kephir…】

“Stop looking at the prophecies, you idiot… I… I’m just a bit tired, maybe I used too much fairy power.”

Even at this moment, Kephir still had the energy to joke with me, accurately guessing what I was thinking. So I knew very well: what Kephir wanted right now was definitely not some worried shout from me, or some boring question like, “Kephir, are you okay?”

I certainly understood what Kephir wanted.

“Good job, Kephir. This time, we finally drove Ludwig away and saved Icarus~”

I forced a smile and held Kephir tightly, who was now comfortably “lying” in my arms. Although I felt that Kephir’s requests were a bit strange, well… at a time like this, how could I not indulge her?

【Kephir hopes to receive praise.】

The next part, just leave it to me.
