Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 178.4
Selik’s knife, which had been drawn out, pierced through Seda’s torso, which had been stiffened by [Phantom Pain].
Where did Selik send Seda? I thought that no matter how panicked he was, he could not have sent Seda, who was in charge of close combat, far away.
I didn’t care if my calculations had been wrong. If that was the case, I would just have to take Selik out before Seda could return. But based on our previous battles, I expected Selik to send Seda to my blind spot, and that’s where I had my [Shadow Walk] set up.
Seda appeared in the middle of me and Selik, and Seda went stiff with [Phantom Pain]. Selik, who had less melee skill than Seda, was unable to stop the knife he had unleashed in his monster form, and stabbed Seda’s body.
“Se, Seda!”
Stunned, Selik shouted, and at that moment, a weight-type pendulum smashed into Seda’s monster head from behind.
Blood splattered and Seda’s body slowly collapsed, and I brandished my knife in a wide arc toward Selik’s frightened face on the other side of it.
“–[Rage Critical]–!”
With a flash of divine strike, Selik’s slashed head soared through the air and disappeared into the intricate darkness of the dungeon.
“…”
All that remained was the wounded supply convoy and the near-death Great Boar.
There was also the fear that reinforcements would be coming, sensing the disordered space from the [Shadow Walk] that the twins and I had used so many times.
I should leave this place immediately if I could. But I stayed where I was and pointed my black blade at the darkness of the dungeon, not at the supply team.
“Whoever is watching… come out.”
From the beginning, I had a chilling sensation.
At first, I thought there was a trap. The identity was the twin of the demon clan, and they also had the secret of turning into monsters.
But this time it was different. From the beginning, I had the sensation of my hair standing on end at the presence of “that thing”.
It did not find me. It was not that it had noticed this battle.
Rather, I believed that it had been watching for the twins as a decoy from the beginning.
“…I’ve missed you, peach blonde girl.”
A young… childish voice was heard, and a small figure in a pitch-black cloak appeared from beyond the darkness.
I felt no sign of life… But from the figure and its voice, which glided closer without a sound or sway, I could feel a burning hatred that resembled rapture.
“…You know me?”
“Yes, I know you. Your face is the only thing he…Gostola sent me.”
“…”
Gostola… There was only one person I knew who bore that name.
The Demon vampire who invaded the kingdom to kidnap the princess, seeking credit for the survival of his clan, and who caused me and Elena to be hurled into the desert.
“I knew I shouldn’t have let them go….I should never have given them the chance… Only the corpse of my friend Gostola returned. That is why I sold myself to the demon clan to meet you…”
The person who had been speaking so bitterly removes her cloak, and a dark dark elf girl who appeared to be only in her early teens, dressed in a blood-colored dress, turned crimson eyes that seemed to shed tears of blood to me.
“It is you…! I have burned your image into Gostola’s eyes so that I may kill you! Only you, in the name of the vampire clan chief Sheherazad, will surely be killed by this hand!”
To settle the grudge of the Demon vampires who were killed, the head of the clan personally came here to start a war to kill the humans and reach me, whose name she didn’t even know.
“…Fine.”
I, too, threw down the shawl around my neck and held my black dagger and knife in both hands.
“I’ll cut off your sorrows here.”
