The Grand Duchess of the North Is Obsessed With Me - The Grand Duchess of the North Is Obsessed With Me chapter 40

40 – When the Dawn Breaks (3)

Helen bit her lip in an unexpected brawl.

It was more difficult to fight while protecting one person than she thought. Although she was not a protected being, she was not always fighting on the front lines, so Helen had to gather her full power.

Chew!

Slashing down one of her soldiers, Helen, who was constantly watching Cain, saw him stop and quickly kicked her to the ground.

“This… Son of a b*tch!!”

Kang!!

Having prevented one of her soldiers from lowering her sword, enraged at Cain for killing her own comrade, Helen opened her mouth hastily.

“Cain!! Run away, come on!”

If Cain went crazy like that, it was obvious that the situation would be as bad as it was. That’s why Helen asked Cain to leave her battlefield.

However, Cain, who had gone out of his mind, could not hear such words in her ears.

“… Quit!”

Helen couldn’t open her mouth again.

It was because she was busy dealing with the soldiers who rushed at her, brandishing her sword. Dodge, throw, block, slash.

It was a simple repetition, but her Helen’s body began to wear out quickly.

It was natural.

From nob le mt l dot com

Knights are called superhumans, but they are human anyway. She is exhausted from exerting, running and concentrating.

Although she gets tired dozens of times later than other people, it was a known fact that she got tired anyway and her stamina was low.

And Helen was now more focused than ever.

It was because it was a situation where she had to pay attention to Cain behind her back while blocking her sword flying from all directions.

Besides, in the first place, Helen was not a knight specializing in interpersonal warfare.

Many-on-one fighting was not something Helen was used to, so she was more exhausted than usual.

Exhaustion, in other words, meant that her stamina was declining, which in turn led to the depletion of her mental strength.

The depletion of mental power soon spreads to the decline of concentration.

And the loss of her concentration in this chaotic battlefield was the same as saying that the gap increased.

The slightest gap turned into a deadly threat to the blind swords of the soldiers.

“…… !”

Helen brushed her own sword, but couldn’t help but open her eyes wide as she watched the terrifying rush of swords.

“Die!!”

Oh, it’s too late.

Unknowingly, Helen thought so.

A very rudimentary and simple mistake. That one was threatening her Helen’s life.

Staring blankly at the sword she was mashing into, Helen prepared for her death.

And at that moment, Cain’s eyes lit up.

Kang! Chew!

Sparks suddenly flew in front of Helen, who couldn’t even close her eyes, and at the same time, fountains of blood burst from the body of the soldier who drew her sword.

“…… Young master?”

In front of Helen’s eyes, she saw the figure of Cain, standing blankly with her sword in hand.

No matter where you look at it, it was definitely Cain, but Helen felt as if Cain wasn’t Cain, so she called him involuntarily.

Swoop.

Cain turned to Helen to see if she was responding to the voice calling her, or just responding to her voice.

And the moment she met her eyes with him, Helen couldn’t help but shudder involuntarily.

Cain’s black eyes glowed with a cool red light.

An overwhelming and unpleasant energy emanating from his body began to overwhelm the audience.

Kung——!

The soldiers surrounding Cain and Helen came to their senses after the soldier fell to the ground after being cut by Cain’s sword.

When the heavy body hit the floor and made a loud noise, the expressions of the soldiers who had been staring blankly at Cain twisted.

“I… You dog-like kid!”

Two already.

Two had already lost their lives to Cain. The fact that two of their comrades had been lost to such a blue kid made the soldiers roll their eyes and rush at him.

They didn’t notice that Cain’s mood was different from before, or that he was wearing a cold, grotesque smile that he hadn’t seen before.

And that.

It was their clear defeat.

“Kwaaa!!”

“My… my arm… !”

Melon couldn’t help but harden her expression as she watched Cain perform a ruthless massacre.

Massacre… Yes, it was the scene of a massacre that no words can deny.

Cain, whose aversion to killing had disappeared, literally ran amok through the battlefield.

Dodges the wrathful swords flying from all directions like flowing water, digging into gaps and cutting enemies again and again.

Hunger for days Like a wild beast slaughtering its prey, he didn’t feel the slightest hesitation in his sword.

Besides, it wasn’t just about taking lives.

Cut your arm, cut your hand, cut your leg. Like a veteran who has practiced interpersonal combat countless times, he has been constantly moving and creating situations that are advantageous to him.

“Kwaaa!!”

Screams of pain echo through the warehouse.

Seeing that, ironically, Melon remembered a conversation she had with Berman before.

[Hey… I’m really envious of being full of talent with a sword.]

[Do you really think so, Melon.]

[It’s not natural. Even if someone wants to have talent, they can’t have it.]

[I don’t really think so.]

[How is it?]

[Swords are meant to kill the enemy after all. Also, having a great power with a sword is the same as having a talent for killing people inevitably.]

[…] .]

Berman said so to Melon, who was envious of Cain’s talent.

[Having a talent for killing people means that there is also a possibility of being eaten by it.]

And Melon recalled those words while looking at Cain now.

‘The talent to kill people… Is that the sword you’re talking about by looking at that? .’

The murky darkness and chilling red light hung over Cain’s dark eyes, which always shone brightly.

And a rugged and virtuous life that naturally overwhelms the surroundings. Seeing that, Melon was convinced.

‘Bocchan is a sword devoured with murderous intent.’

It is said that Cain was devoured by a greedy murderous intent that would devour even himself if he was a little careless.

Cain roamed her battlefield and danced her sword dance.

The bright red blood that splatters, the bright red light that deepens every time a person is cut down. A sword that swings beautifully and shines.

If murder is an art, Cain’s sword dance was more perfect than anything else.

But understandably, Melon did not take it positively.

‘I’m going to go crazy if I do that.’

It was clear that he would end up becoming a blood-sucking murderer if he continued to do that.

Now Cain had lost her self.

Even in the eyes of Melon, who has gone through all the pre-natal battles, the building Cain was terrifyingly dangerous.

“That… stop… ! Buy… help me… !”

“Yes… Ha, surrender… !”

Chaeng-Grang!

And Melon knew that the danger would end only when there was nothing to kill around her.

It did not take long for the barbarian soldiers to lose their fighting spirit. Because they did not have the spirit to endure the overwhelming and merciless slaughter.

One by one, the surviving soldiers threw their swords on the ground and began to surrender.

Kneeling on the floor, hands raised, they begged for their lives.

Cain stopped moving at the sight of the soldiers.

“Why?”

———For a while.

Cain, tilting his head crookedly, stared at the soldiers with a cool expression and asked.

“Why do I have to save you guys?”

There was no pitch in his voice, only a feeling of sincere curiosity.

“Hey… !”

Faced with the red light in the empty pupils, the soldiers trembled and had no choice but to look at him.

From nob le mt l dot com

Kigigigg.

The tip of Cain’s sword scratched the floor.

Cain asked again as he slowly walked towards them with his sword hanging down.

“Why do I have to save you guys….”

The soldiers looked at him with eyes full of fear. Finally, after taking a few steps, Cain arrived in front of them.

Cain, who was sitting at the front of the soldier, bent down at eye level and continued his words.

“Are you asking?”

“… Heeep.”

No matter how many soldiers they were, they were veterans who had gone through all sorts of battles.

Particularly, the level of barbarian soldiers was extraordinary, as they were accustomed to struggle and battle.

Cain’s appearance was so close to that of a demon that even the barbarian soldiers were frightened and hiccups came out.

His black hair was drenched in blood, and blood trickled down his face.

Black eyes were dull and faded, and dangerous red light streamed down from within.

As the soldiers stared blankly at him, unable to say anything, overwhelmed by those eyes, Cain stood up….

He smirked and curled up the corners of his mouth.

“I can understand that there is no reason for not being able to speak, right?”

Slowly Cain’s sword pointed upward.

Cain, whose expressionless face raised only the corner of his mouth, opened his mouth towards them as if he was having fun.

“Then die.”

A pleasant voice and an expression that is not.

It was around the time Cain’s sword began to dance again.

“… I won’t let you go there.”

Puck——!

Melon, who had captured all the fleeing barbarians before he knew it, gave out a slightly rough breath and hit Cain on the back of the neck.

Melon, who stunned him in an instant at a speed that Cain could not react to even though her senses were sensitively revived, exhaled lightly and smiled brightly.

“Oh, he’s a young boy who needs a lot of work.”

Melon, who had been watching Helen safely catch Cain as she fell to the floor, turned her attention to her.

Looking at Here and the soldiers who surrendered to the floor, Melon smiled coldly and opened her mouth.

“Please obey me. Don’t you all want to die?”

What the soldiers can do about his bloody words….

“Yes… yes… !”

There was nothing but a frantic nod.
