no one expected

Not only the swordsman who swung the sword at Eleanor, but also the knight next to him and the onlookers watching it were unexpected.

People who thought she would lose thought that even she would have limits.

If it was a duel, Eleanor would win in the end thanks to her swordsmanship and skill.

However, she is a woman after all. Compared to the training and talent, the gender was a very minor problem, but it was not a problem that could be solved.

Those who have seen Eleanor for a long time know that she is weak in battle. And some of them knew that there were far more knights involved in this ‘kill bastard’ operation than they seemed.

There were many royalty. And they didn’t want to die.

They tried to create a force within the imperial family, rather than die lonely under the control of all the other members of the imperial family while running amok alone.

Even among the imperial family, there was a sense of solidarity as ‘comrades who are unfairly persecuted because of the evil emperor’. The relationship between the nobles who supported them was not too bad either.

Each of them left in search of a royal family to serve, but until the emperor was alive, they were united under the banner of the imperial faction or the aristocratic faction. Of course, there was no choice but to have many exchanges and contacts with other nobles.

The knights serving Franz were the vanguard. They first imagined the honor and profit they would gain by defeating Eleanor, but after that, three or four more knights of that size were prepared.

The knights who would join later thought that the knights who tried to fight Eleanor first were ‘idiots who would die without the princess’s power in moderation’.

The nobles, who knew all this, thought that this time the princess would collapse.

“Lord, he’s dead!”

“In one stroke…”

“What are you hesitating about! Quickly pincer!”

Even for those who thought Eleanor would win, the sight was unexpected.

It was one of two people who thought she would win. You’ve seen her fight, or you’ve supported her.

The former knew that she was the kind of person who would cover her opponents when killing people. Whether it was a monster or not, it was she who swung her sword after thinking about it several times when killing a group of bandits.

Even if they rebelled, if it was a struggle of the people suffering from the hardships of life, Eleanor, who was a thoroughly thorough knight to the point of fighting with a sword, would not kill a knight of the same empire so easily.

The latter was someone who just supported Eleanor. To them, Eleanor was a hero and a savior to end this chaos.

Whenever there was noise about impersonating the hero, they denied it, recalling what the hero and Eleanor accomplished together in the middle ground.

In common sense, if the relationship between the two was so bad, how could they have prevented a fight while going on an adventure together? There was only a temporary quarrel, and there is no need for an outsider to know about it.

With those words, they claimed Eleanor’s innocence. There were not a few people who thought this way.

There was no proper royal family, and the capital was in chaos. In this situation, of course, they had no choice but to reminisce about the past, when the emperor was there.

And, at that time, it was none other than Eleanor who faithfully followed the orders of the emperor and realized justice more than anyone else.

They didn’t even believe Eleanor’s words. Even saying that she did not have the emperor’s blood, she thought it was a lie made with humility or intention, or a slander from the forces that were hostile to her.

It was because there were not many people among the supporters who could have a private meeting with the princess.

Some humans even thought that it didn’t matter even if it was true that she was not the emperor’s daughter.

They live in the capital city. Monsters appear in the forest outside the castle, and people inside the forest do not suffer much damage, except for a slight increase in prices or difficulty in going out.

What mattered to them was the fear that an immediate struggle between soldiers and a civil war might break out. I wasn’t afraid of monsters that would appear one day.

Those who believed so innocently in Eleanor believed that Eleanor would enlighten those knights with her powerful swordsmanship and her good character.

I didn’t think that the knight’s body would be slashed with a single sword.

“Big, big…”

Eleanor’s expression didn’t change, and she slashed the other knight who was charging at her.

The armor made of steel was torn like a piece of paper. The bones were cut like jelly, and the flesh was cut like water.

“Oh, no. I can’t beat that. No!”

Some knights escaped. According to their thoughts, at least their captain, who first attacked them, should have endured a few dozen.

It could not be seen as a defeat in swordsmanship. Of course, it was his mistake to allow the fatal blow, but at best it was a wound that would cut off his arm.

Even the armor they wore was not ordinary armor. It’s not an armor that can be cut down like cutting vegetables in the first shot without raising the power.

not human It’s not the sword-to-sword fight they know.

If that sword collided with the sword the knight was holding, there was no doubt that it would break into pieces in an instant.

“Don’t run! Keep fighting!”

The remaining knights laughed at the future of those who fled despite their anxiety.

They will live with the label of cowards for the rest of their lives, and even if these knights achieve victory, they will eventually lose their lives.

Rather, it was better to stay and fight. Eleanor’s complexion didn’t change, but she might have killed their captain with a mortal blow that consumed a lot of energy.

The remaining knights rushed at Eleanor with such hope in their arms.

And, their bodies were cut off.

“To mercilessly murder the knights of the Empire! This despicable prostitute… Die!”

The waiting knights rushed in. They recognized Eleanor’s skills, but in the end, the dead knights were members of another order.

The reason why they collapsed without being able to withstand even one match was simply because of their lack of skills. Even if Eleanor is ‘stronger than expected’, in the end, if you fight against them, who are real knights, you will be defeated.

Even those who thought so collapsed in an instant, like those who fought before.

Blood flowed, corpses piled up. The knights waiting behind were drenched in anxiety, but the anticipation of ‘if it were us’ and the pressure of ‘I can’t kill Eleanor for the rest of my life if not now’ pushed them out.

Turning her back and running away while the other members were watching took as much courage as fighting an out-of-the-ordinary monster named Eleanor.

They mustered up their remaining courage and attacked Eleanor. And, they all died.

“Rain, you mean bastard. The treasures of the Imperial Arsenal…”

Finally, the dying old knight was able to grasp the source of Eleanor’s power only after he took the sword.

“Yes. Now… it’s something I don’t need.”

In the imperial treasury, countless forbidden artifacts and treasures were stored. Her power, too, was the power that came from drawing and using one of those treasures.

“I’m going to die. I’m going to die…”

“I can’t be the only one alive.”

murder sword. It had a normal appearance, but it was a ghost that sent countless people to their graves.

It was a demonic sword that imbued the user with enormous power, but took away the life and twisted the body.

However, its power is essentially demonic. Even, it is only valid when a human kills a human.

Numerous relics were used in the fight against the demon king, but this was the reason why the sword could not be used despite the uproar.

“That sword, only when there is an invasion from another country…”

“Oh, I know. I know I’m committing a sin.”

According to tradition, it is a demonic sword that is said to drive madness just by holding it.

But Eleanor’s eyes were calm. Unmoved in the slightest, he watched as the human being died in front of his eyes.

Silence passed.

The onlookers who watched it said nothing and turned their eyes away from the terrible horror.

Except for one noble lady who had just come running.

“Oh, brother?”

She found the knight’s body cut in half. She looked at Eleanor’s face and the cold body in disbelief, and her legs gave out and she sat down.

“Everything, Captain. How could that be…”

“He wanted to kill me, so he killed me.”

Eleanor answered her question in a grave tone.

It was just something to kill. If Eleanor had been a little more careless, everyone watching this would have thought, ‘It deserved it.’

But with this slaughter, the Empire will weaken. Dozens of powerful knights disappeared right away, so the vacuum will soon be revealed.

When Eleanor becomes emperor, she will pay this price. The dead knight’s parents were most likely knights, and nobles related to the knights would not cooperate with Eleanor.

“You’re not like that, are you?”

“It happened.”

However, this slaughter brought Eleanor several steps closer to the Emperor. Those who oppose her will tremble in fear.

None of the imperial family now has the level of strength of the knights she killed as escorts.

In other words, even if Eleanor immediately finds the residence of the royal family and massacres all humans in broad daylight, no one will be held accountable.

It is an overwhelming force. A huge power that overwhelms political power and legitimacy.

Literally, the power that would allow her to ascend to the throne of Emperor ‘alone’.

“It’s not long. Wait a minute, wait a minute more…”

Eleanor repeated without expression.

The end is not far.
