Survive on a Deserted Island With the Villainous Young Lady - Chapter 308
308 – Secret Warehouse Battle (3)
The joint attack of the two demon knights was truly fierce and threatening.
However, unlike the first battle where Anubis was not properly used ‘just for testing’, now that Anubis was being actively used, Chester and his party were able to easily corner the demon knights.
The most difficult thing about dealing with a demon knight is the abnormal vitality that makes death seem non-existent.
And the chilling sharpness of their armor fragments.
This makes it difficult to get close to them, you have to be very wary of their weapons, and you really have to barrage them with endless attacks.
The next problem is the same power as Urgo. And a huge human upper body to match the horse’s lower body.
Its strength is similar to that of Urgo, but it is stronger than Urgo due to its physique. In addition, the attack radius is wide enough to sweep away the surrounding area with just a single swing of the arm.
It’s big. Fast. Strong.
It has all the simple elements of strength, but in addition, persistent vitality, sharp weapons, and hard armor have been added.
Assuming a one-on-one fight, Urgo or Lorwan could not be sure that they would defeat the demon knight.
Rex, who defeated that thing by himself in the first place, is abnormal.
And, Chester.
From the time he arrived on the ship to the Side continent, Chester trained with Urgo to give purpose to his reflexes.
Eliminates messy reflections by giving purpose to the extremely sensitive senses that react indiscriminately to everything around them.
As a result, his senses, which were already extremely sharp, became even more refined, allowing Chester to move in response to the world as if reading the future.
The sense of seeing and moving through the world a few steps ahead of others.
At first, Chester was embarrassed and had his feet tangled because he could not follow the unfamiliar sensation, but after continued training, he succeeded in getting used to the sensation.
The thing that had the biggest impact on me was when I was fighting a demon knight the other day.
Instead of relying on Anubis, he used only his own body to avoid the demon knight’s varied attacks and each time he made a stabbing action, his senses became one with Chester, and eventually, Chester succeeded in completely acquiring his senses.
The results were not just in movement, but also in handling Anubis.
It became possible to move dazzlingly in accordance with the unfolding of Anubis’s veil, entrapping the opponent by wrapping it around the veil, and by controlling the trajectory of the veil, it was possible to swing it as a kind of ‘blade’ rather than a shield.
“Hmph!”
When Chester swings Anubis, a curtain unfolds from the end of Anubis.
A thin section of the curtain that was spread from the end of Anubis flew towards the demon knight, and the demon knight who was hit fell to his knees with purple sparks splashing all over his armor.
The moment he wielded the indestructible curtain as a weapon, it became an attack that could never be resisted, showing such power that it could bring even the devil knight to his knees.
Of course, if it were normal, his body would have been cut off by a cross section of the curtain before he could even kneel down.
Because he was a demon knight, he was able to hold on without being cut off.
“Wooooo!”
The moment Chester brought the demon knight to his knees, Rex swung his fist at the demon knight.
He’s not swinging his bare fists.
A fragment of armor previously left behind by a demon knight. He was wearing a gauntlet made in the shape of Rex’s fist by tying it here and there.
Quaaa!!
You can swing your fists and beat the demon knight without worrying about getting hurt.
Then, when the demon knight comes to his senses and tries to attack back, Urgo falls back, and in the meantime, Chester, who is able to spread the curtain again, wraps the curtain around the demon knight and traps him.
If you capture him, it’s Urgo’s turn next.
He swings his fist at his head, which is exposed to the outside, rather than his body, which is protected by a curtain.
Kuuung! Kwaaang!
Each blow rang out harshly and loudly, and the demon knight, whose body was tied and unable to maintain his balance, rolled around helplessly.

And, after receiving such continuous shock, the armor fragments surrounding the demon knight’s head and neck slowly began to peel off.
Chester stabbed Anubis without missing the gap in the peeling armor fragment, and Rex hit the part of Anubis’ stick that Chester let go of with his fist, tearing off the armor fragment stuck on the end of Anubis in one go.
Chester caught Anubis, who had been thrown away by Rex, and then swung on the spot, unfolding the curtain and sending it flying towards the demon knight.
The flying curtain hindered the Demon Knight’s actions, and Rex, who had some free time, paid no attention to the Demon Knight’s counterattack and aimed for the head that was exposed by the pieces of armor being torn off.
Using the sharpness of the armor fragments surrounding his hands, he lightly digs his fingers into the devil knight’s neck, then uses harsh force to rip off his head.
The body of the demon knight who lost his head loses strength and collapses. He did not die, but his body without the commander was unable to move properly and was only trembling desperately.
Chester and Rex left the fallen demon knight and headed toward the demon knight that Urgo and Rex were suppressing.
Urgo and Lorwan, who were suppressing the demon knight alone without Anubis or Rex, were covered in blood.
Previously, when fighting, Chester would take the lead and tell them how to move by dodging or blocking attacks, but since he didn’t have that, there were many cases where he was unprepared or hit by attacks he couldn’t avoid.
Fortunately, both Urgo and Lorwan were experienced warriors, so they managed to avoid fatal wounds, but that means they only avoided fatal wounds.
“Sorry, I’m late.”
Chester apologized to Urgo and looked behind him.
The demon knight must have been targeting the carriage, as one wall of the carriage was blown off and the wheels were smashed.
And Urgo, who had thrown himself to block the devil knight’s special attack, had one of his arms almost destroyed.
And thanks to Urgo’s sacrifice, Monia was able to escape the demon knight’s special attack without major damage.
“…… Thanks.”
When Chester understood the situation and said thank you, Urgo asked Chester what he was worried about and deliberately moved his protruding arm and tapped Chester on the shoulder.
“Get some rest.”
“Yes.”
Urgo’s entire body had turned completely white from how much blood he had lost.
The same goes for Lorwan. Lorwan, who was smaller than the woman, had a small amount of blood in her body, so even the slightest loss was fatal, and blood continued to flow from her side and thigh where the attack had grazed her.
Leaving Urgo and Lorwan behind, Chester and Rex ran towards the remaining demon knights, exhausted.

Inside the secret warehouse, Raynald was preparing while listening to the commotion coming from above through the devil.
“It’s been a while since I brought this out.”
Raynold said so, and in the process of secretly moving the demon to a secret warehouse, he took out the heirlooms that had been moved together from the basement of the Duke’s family mansion.
The first thing Raynald took out was a full plate armor that was quite old-fashioned, but had an appearance that could be called clunky or, to put it bluntly, grotesque, in the eyes of people of today’s era.
It is also a special type of armor that is not worn separately by part, but rather, all parts of the armor are organically connected, and the back of the armor splits left and right, allowing one’s body to be worn inside it.
The armor, which was not normal no matter how you looked at it, was, as one might expect, one of the magics passed down from generation to generation in the duke’s family.
Long ago, during the founding war, magical armor worn by their great ancestors who led their soldiers into battle.
It gives the person wearing the armor the same strength as a hero, regenerates the armor no matter how damaged it is, and completely blocks incoming threats such as arrows or catapults.
The next thing Raynald took out was also one of the heirlooms.
An invisible shield. It is the most perfect shield in the world, eliminating all the shortcomings and weaknesses of shields. Instead, since the shield is invisible, you can’t hide behind the shield and play with your hands, but it’s worth the risk.
The last thing I took out was a long sword. A misshapen long sword with only a handle and no blade.
– Even though you have those things, you are stuck in a place like a coward.
“No matter how powerful these heirlooms are, they are not invincible. “All of the past head of the family who went to the battlefield wearing heirlooms met their death on the battlefield.”
Raynald spoke calmly.
“No matter how strong you are alone, you cannot win against numbers. Even if he doesn’t die from the rain of arrows, he will die if any of the endlessly charging soldiers even sticks a dagger into his side.”
Raynald said and swung the handle of his long sword in the air. Then, the invisible blade created along the trajectory of the handle left a large scar on the wall of the secret warehouse.
“Even if there is an invisible sword and shield, in the end it is just a sword and shield. No matter how well you hear it or how strong it is, it’s just a sword and a shield. It is no different from the spear knives held by other soldiers. So, while fighting, you lose and die. Of course, if the enemy took the heirloom, they would do whatever it took to get it back.”
Raynald looked at the heirlooms’ performance for a moment and then nodded with satisfaction.
“Even if you wear these things, you are not invincible or undefeated. “All the old family heads who didn’t know that died young.”
– You know that well, right?
“Yes. So prepare. “I don’t think you can solve it on your own, and I don’t have any other soldiers or knights, so I’ll have to move.”
Responding calmly, Reynold finished his preparations and waited for his daughter and the warriors she had found to come down from above.
