Chapter 107 – Lucid Dreaming #2

Caang!

“Shit…!”

Aaron, who blocked the knight being controlled by his sword, swallowed his saliva.
Yuria really didn’t like Aaron.
It would be nice if I just killed it and no time would be wasted.
No matter how much camaraderie there is, it is too soft.
It was absurd that someone like that was the captain of the knights…

“Can I help you?”

Kagagak!

At Yuria’s seemingly annoying question, Aaron, who exchanged her place as if sliding sword to sword with her knight, exclaimed.

“Done! You go first!”

It was the answer I was hoping for.
I tried to go first no matter what answer came out.
Yuria shook her head.

“I see.”

Without hesitation, Yuria turned her back and headed for her bed.
Yuria, who arrived at the king’s residence with great speed, looked around her.
The corpses piled up like a mountain, all died of sword wounds.
It was not the work of the knights manipulated by Amon.
If he knew their skills, he couldn’t cut a person’s body so neatly.
Then…

‘Is it 4 knights?’

It is very likely that it was the work of the 4th knight.
But it was a bit odd.
The official residence was burned by the hellfire of the Balrog, a super-high-ranking monster, and burned without leaving ashes.
You could just spit out flames from your mouth, did you do such a troublesome thing?
Or is there something you don’t know about?

‘I’ll think about it later. I have to find my mother first.’

It was the moment when Yuria was about to jump to the second floor.

Wow!

Four of the monster’s jaws protruded from the center of the spacious first-floor official residence, opening their mouths.
The monsters that emerged from there were four knights.
Dressed in red, white, black, and blue-yellow armor, respectively.
It was the 4th knight who was Tairat’s escort.
YuRia’s eyes widened.

“Four knights!”

She immediately hung an arrow on her string and fired arrows at the four.
So fast that it could be said to be almost simultaneous.

Kang!

However, the 4 knights hit the arrows very easily.
The distance was short, so the arrow didn’t have time to grow, but it was still incredibly strong and fast, but it was easy to block it. Indeed, it deserves to be called an S-class monster.
Just as Yuria was about to shoot her arrow again, a blue-yellow knight rode her horse and rode out in front of her.
He was a death knight who served as the head of the 4 knights.

-Daughter of Glenn Elenar, Princess Yuria Elenar. She was waiting

Yuria bit her lip.
She’s such a liar, to call her the daughter of an opportunist… She wouldn’t have been so upset if she’d rather been the daughter of Margaret Eleanor.

“Shut up!”

Wedge liquid! Jjoong!

The death knight laughed lowly as she parried the arrow fired by Yuria in anger.

– I’m impatient. Are you looking for Margaret Elenare?

Her mother’s name leapt from the death knight’s mouth.
YuRia’s eyebrows twitched.

“No way…”

– What you worry about did not happen. If you want to see it, follow us.

It’s a lie. Do you think you will believe the words of the monster?
Besides, to follow me… It makes me feel bad when you say it like you’re treating someone below you.
Negotiations break down, punishment must be given.

Quaang!

Yuria smashed her ceiling and stopped in the air.
I saw the 4 knights summoning their favorite horses and following them.
It seems like they kidnapped their mother somewhere else, so let’s kill all but one.
Let’s make sure the rest of us have the edge, then take them to their mother.
The moment her will burns,

Chunk!

There were colorful patterns on both ends of the bow.
YuRia, who saw this, fired an arrow with the corner of her mouth raised, and fired a shot at the knight of war running in front.

Push!

@@

The death knight, whose armor had been shattered in half, muttered in a hollow voice.

-This… This nonsense…!

Watching his reaction, Yuria felt a great joy inside.
The power of the evolved bow is truly the strongest.
The three knights were killed in an instant, and the death knight, the leader, was almost exhausted.

– This is impossible! How could something like a princess have such power…! Obviously, even before…

“Have you been okay until now? I feel bad for being ignored.”

-This year…!

The knight who was about to spit out curse words,

Kwajik!

– Oops!

YuRia stepped on her head and threw her to the ground.
Although it is a monster, it has the name of a knight.
There will be no humiliation like this.
YuRia, who had been stepping on the knight’s head for a while, let go.
Then the knight slowly raised his head.

-…..

A death knight now quiet. You seem to have grasped my subject.
YuRia raised one corner of her mouth.

“Are you aware of it now? Still, it’s a pretty strong monster, so I think my head is spinning.”

-Kill… Open…

“If you don’t tell me where your mother is, I’ll humiliate you even more than just now.”

-I am the faithful servant of the Demon King. I will say…

“I’m going to take off all the armor and throw it out of the castle naked. Then what will the high-ranking monsters think?”

A monster who received an honorable position as an escort of Tairat is thrown naked?
It’s normal for monsters to be agitated, and it’s fortunate that they don’t get eaten by them.

-You evil…! Do you have no honor!

“A passing dog must be laughing. As a monster, you should know very well, right? It means that honor is not a word used by the weak.”

Poududeuk!

The sound of teeth grinding came from inside the helmet.
Yuria shuddered with excitement.
He is a death knight who is known as the strongest among countless monsters.
It felt good to see a monster of that size not even reacting and just shaking.

“Now, now…”

The moment Yuria tries to threaten the death knight in earnest,

[Well said.]

From the air came a voice so loud and majestic that it made the entire castle resound.
Surprised, YuRia looked up at the sky.
There, at some point, a monster portal appeared.

Wow!

The portal soon opened its mouth and materialized a being.
Its existence is…

-Demon King!

It was tyrat.
YuRia was confused when she saw him.
Because the moment I saw Tyrat’s face, I remembered someone’s face.
It was none other than Jihyeok.
Something that shouldn’t happen. But even if they are similar, they are very similar.
The eyes, the bridge of the nose, and even the jawline…

‘What…?’

In the midst of her confusion, Tyrat, who came down from the portal with a nonchalant eye, waved his hand from a distance.

Sooooo…

Then, the new type of death knight at YuRia’s feet reconciled like dust and disappeared.
I don’t know if I killed him or sent him to another place.
Tyrat walked slowly with his hands behind his back and approached YuRia.

“Honor is a word that does not work for the weak… I deeply sympathize with that statement.”

“…!”

Even his usual voice resembled Jihyuk’s unique voice.
I felt like I was going to fly away, but I had to hold on.
That guy is not Jihyeok, but Tyrat. If left alone, the kingdom will perish and the mother will be killed.
YuRia shook her head once and shouted.

“Tairat! Where is your mother!?”

“Margaret Elenar is safe. It is near my annex now.”

“If my mother ever hurt a hair, I won’t forgive you!”

“I promise in the name of the Demon King. Your mother is fine Interesting anyway. Are you going to judge me? Dare you?”

Yuria internally laughed at Tyrat.
He only has the name of the Demon King, and he knows that his own strength is weak.
It was astounding to see such a guy pretending to show dignity to Yuria herself.
Still, looking at his growing voice, he must have done something, but it can’t be compared to his current self.
YuRia continued.

“If I don’t return my mother right now…”

“Hmm… Well… I don’t know if they’ll try to go back even if I let them go.”

“What are you talking about!?”

“Leave yourself thinking about that… I’ll make a suggestion.”

“Proposal…?”

“Come at me with all your might. If you can inflict even a small wound on this body, I will grant you any wish you wish for.”

Yuria was full of spirits.
What’s the point of making such an offer?
But now, Tairat is holding her mother hostage.
Hang out here for a while, then kill him as soon as you get your mother back.
After that, I will ascend to the throne and enjoy peace.
YuRia, who rolled her head, asked Tyrat.

“How can you believe it’s not a lie?”

“You are free to believe. What are you going to do?”

I have no choice but to believe now.

Pod!

After kicking the ground a few times to get some distance, Yuria aimed her bow at Tyrat.

“I’ll make you regret it…!”

“Do whatever you want. I will be quiet here.”

He was an arrogant guy.
After getting hit by an arrow, you’ll think differently.
I’ll let you beg for life under your feet.
Thinking so, YuRia concentrated.

Ugh!

As the light green halo gathered on the arrow, the power began to concentrate.
First of all, I have to blow off one of the arms of that abomination.
YuRia concentrated on her arrows and gathered strength, and as soon as she was ready, she let go of the protest.

Squash!

The arrow flew so fast that I couldn’t even see it, and it was aimed right at Tyrat’s shoulder.
YuRia had no doubt that his shoulder blades would come off.
However…

Quack!

I was caught in the palm of Tylat’s raised hand.
The arrow soon turned to powder and fell to the floor with a soft sound.
Seeing that, Yuria opened her mouth.

“Nonsense…!”

It was an arrow shot with much more energy than when dealing with 4 knights.
But a crappy piece of junk like Tyrat can easily block that? I didn’t understand.

“Is this all?”

“Profit…!”

Furious at Tyrat’s mockery, Yuria fired an arrow again.
It’s quite indeed the devil. Yuria revised her evaluation of Tyrat.
Let’s shoot with as much force as possible this time.
Yuria, who had energized her arrow for a long time, aimed at the side of Tyrat, who was looking at her with a relaxed attitude.

Squash!

The arrow that had left the demonstration moved towards Tyrat with light green streaks flowing down its tail like a comet.
And…

Jjoong!

Tylat was blocked by the simple swing of his hand and fell helplessly.
YuRia’s heart sank.

“What is this…!”

It was an attack that took time and hit with great force.
To the extent that he was confident that he could even break the head of a balrog.
But, as if it were just annoying, it was blocked by the whipped hand…?
I had never heard of a tyrat being this strong.
YuRia, who fell into a panic, was losing her breath.

“There is nothing more to see.”

Tylat clicked his tongue and took a step forward.
Then, a tremendous energy emanated from his body and shook the earth.

Koo Goo Goo…!

It is a vibration that fits the word of heaven and earth.
Yuria felt an overwhelming sense of fear at the strange power that gripped her body.
Her trembling legs didn’t listen, and in the end she collapsed on the floor.

“Ah…!”

Tyrat slowly exhaled energy and approached Yuria, smiling wickedly.

“There is no honor for the weak. Isn’t it?”

“Ooh… Ah…”

“Come to the annex with me. You have no choice.”

Having said that, Tyrat opened the portal.
Yuria, who saw the inside of the dark monster’s mouth, thought she had to run away, but felt a deep despair at herself for not being able to do so.
A man’s desperate cry was heard from afar.
Aaron’s voice. But Yuria couldn’t even turn her head.

Tyrat let out a low laugh.

“I think it would be okay if I took him too. If you have the courage, you will come in on your own.”

He grabbed YuRia’s arm and forced her up.

“Wow!”

Yuria let out a short scream and couldn’t even resist while Tyrat took her bow and quiver and smashed them to pieces.
He just hangs down like a person who has given up on life.
In the end, Yuria was led into the portal by Tyrat.
