I Became a Childhood Friend With the Villainous Saintess chapter 98

98 – Retribution (3)

Due to Nezra’s death, Decaravia’s feet were on fire.

The attack of her evil spirits became stronger to the point that it was clearly felt that she was overdoing it.

Although Sirien was blocking well, it looked quite dangerous compared to the solidity she had shown before.

Her black gloves brushed near her lips.

Sirien’s expression is a little dark. She couldn’t be seen clearly because it was night, but she had a subtle scent of blood.

Is it really an internal injury? No. She didn’t seem to have gone that far, but it seemed like she had reached her limit.

“Sirien. Would that be better?”

“Not yet…… “It’s worth holding on.”

Her voice seemed quite strained.

She was not unreasonable. She killed so many demonic beasts alone and faced this powerful person and the demon king alone.

From now on, it was my turn to reduce the burden.

He pushed forward towards her, using her great sword as the lead.

So that I can become Sirien’s shield. In addition, he pushed hard to become a dagger that pierces Decarabia’s heart.

“You can take it slow. “Get rid of your body first.”

“Then, let me solve it a little bit. Please.”

Sirien lowered her stance behind her and caught her breath.

The divinity that protected us like an iron wall disappeared like melting snow, and crazy evil spirits came in like the tide.

Random chatter. Sounds ranging from girlish laughter to the sounds of an old witch shuffling rang out randomly.

– I hid under the desk you were sitting at and grabbed your ankles, but you were so shocked that you gouged out your own eyes.

– I’ll pull out your eyes too. I’ll pull out your eyes too. I’ll pull out your eyes too!

– Kyahahahaha!

I cut the sword horizontally, as if drawing a brush on drawing paper.

Although several evil spirits disappeared at once, there were still many in number.

A violent force that cannot be compared to before.

The hatred of evil spirits resonated with magic power and eroded divinity.

It’s threatening. But even Decaravia will never be able to maintain this kind of power.

As expected, the boy, Decarabia’s host seemed to be in worse condition than Sirien.

He too was cornered.

If you don’t kill us here, the imperial family will eventually intervene, and Decaravia won’t be able to handle the power of the entire empire.

No matter how rotten the Ethelmar Empire was, it did not lack power.

Even if a high-ranking demon king comes, it is impossible to hold out without support within the empire’s territory.

That does not mean that Decaravia will suddenly collapse.

Whether the opponent is overdoing it or not, if you can’t block it, you will die.

I could feel the guardian engraved on my armor losing strength by the minute.

‘The opponent is also trying too hard, so we just have to hold on and win…… This is a trap.’

In any case, Dekaravia will drive her host into a frenzy and only she will escape.

I was sure. Because I missed it that much when I met that parasite demon lord before.

Sirien protected herself by greatly reducing the range of her divinity, and I slowly advanced, swinging her great sword.

Every time the great sword was swung, the evil spirits screamed.

The sword master’s sword cuts down things that cannot be cut normally – things such as supernatural abilities or magic, starting from the very fundamental concepts.

Therefore, it was not strange for sword energy to erase evil spirits.

What was unique was the divinity of Hybras.

The compatibility was surprisingly good. The divinity I pulled out was showing a power comparable to that of a sword.

Is it because we are dealing with souls? No. This is more likely because they are evil spirits.

Those evil spirits are enemies that directly collide with the divinity of Hybras.

The sanctity of order may feel similar to when dealing with rebels or criminals.

– Kyaaa!

The evil spirit that was circling the sky approached and screamed.

I stretched out one hand to cover the divinity. He held the head of the evil spirit in his hands and applied as much force as he could, and the spirit body was crushed.

With his other hand, he swung the great sword further, scattering sword energy, and threw the sword made of divinity towards Decaravia.

The sword flew through the wind and stopped in front of Dekaravia.

A magic circle that suddenly appeared in the air disrupted the divinity.

The defense itself was perfect, but Decarabia narrowed his eyes.

He said to himself.

To be exact, it looked like he was talking to himself.

“This is difficult. “It will be dangerous if we continue like this.”

“Honey, angel? This hurts! Please stop! Argh! aaah!”

“Child, this is all necessary.”

“Ugh! aaah!”

The boy screamed.

Every time a painful scream rang out, madness appeared in the eyes of the evil spirits.

The holy law that Sirien had engraved was broken.

While the armor was forcibly distorted, attempts were made to regurgitate my blood or twist my body.

Is this how you interfere with humans?

If I turned off the power even for a moment, I felt like my life would end in an instant.

No, it wasn’t that different now. The situation where all kinds of curses were aimed at me was no different from swords being pointed at me from all directions.

I continued to advance toward Decarabia.

Decaravia shouted.

“Kill that bastard at any cost! “Don’t let it advance any further!”

“It’s fun. Didn’t you shout like that and run away the last time we met? “It seems like both you and I have changed a lot, but somehow the situation doesn’t seem to have changed.”

“Shut up! Do you think you can overcome this force and come this far?”

“Why do you think you can’t do it?”

Damage accumulated each time we went through the evil spirits.

At first, it ended with my armor being damaged little by little, but little by little, residual scars began to remain on my body.

No matter how much I cut, there was no end.

How many people were born and died in this world? In the meantime, how many ghosts were there who harbored resentment and sorrow?

Even if one evil spirit was cut down, other ghosts wandering the nine heavens materialized through the boy’s supernatural ability.

The magic circle drawn by Decarabia appeared everywhere.

‘It’s a minor problem.’

Even though the number of ghosts was endless, the distance between me and Decaravia was not infinite.

If you keep moving forward, you will eventually reach it.

With that weak body, there is no option to run away from me.

Nothing changed at all in important issues.

Protect Sirien.

My lover who willingly came to this dangerous place for me. A lord and saint whom I must protect for the rest of my life. We must protect our one and only love forever.

If I fall, it goes without saying that Sirien will be in danger. I was her only knight, sword, and shield.

No matter what happens, I will not lose here.

Kill Nezra, kill Deca Labia, put her marquis on the scaffold, and take revenge on Count Roxen.

Whether it’s the damn heroine or the crown prince, it will be different this time.

“Kill! Kill! Why again…… “

The boy’s voice mumbled in annoyance.

I couldn’t hear well. The laughter of evil spirits. All the sounds were mixed together and it was difficult to distinguish them.

I was so overwhelmed just swinging the sword that I didn’t have time to pay attention to Decarabia’s nonsense.

The distance between me and the devil became closer little by little.

I continued to erase the evil spirits with my sword, but my sword and the divinity of Hybras were not good at defense.

Every time an evil spirit disappears, a scar remains on my body. Sometimes it was small, sometimes it was big.

However, I did not learn how to protect myself.

The reality given to me and Sirien always forced us to move forward.

If you step back, you will die. If you sit down, you will die. If you don’t move forward, you die. Before your eyes is a thorny road.

It has never been like that.

We walked with blood pouring from the soles of our feet.

I am used to suffering like this.

It is not me who should be afraid now, but Decarabia. Because I won’t fall from these wounds.

In the novel, my strength was only described as sword energy or authority, but now I understand.

The source of my strength was not in that, but simply in my strong and tough rope and will.

“Razen, end it!”

Before we knew it, the distance from Decarabia had reached a very short distance.

The magical power began to run wild, but at that moment, chains extending from all directions bound the boy’s body.

Sirien’s divinity suppressed the rampage.

A dark red centipede escapes from the boy’s body.

I grabbed the centipede’s neck and stabbed it with my sword.

* * *

“Are you okay? “It seemed like it was too much in the end.”

“…… I didn’t overdo it that much. “I just need to rest for a few days.”

After saying that, Sirien spat out her blood from her mouth.

Deka Ravia’s main body had lost its strength and was limp, and the boy who was her host was sitting in a dazed state.

I even sealed his supernatural abilities just in case, but he didn’t put up any resistance.

We decided to take the boy to Ethelmarion.

“Me…… What are you going to do next?”

“We won’t do anything. But nothing fun will be waiting for you.”

“It’s unfair. I was unhappy my whole life. From the moment he was born, he was bullied as an evil child. Until the angel comes…… “

“Stop. Does the ‘angel’ you were thinking of look like that? “Has he ever called your name?”

“Name? Ah…… !”

The boy’s mouth opened slightly.

Looks like he is lost in thought. The boy lowered his head and did not open his mouth again.
