Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 713

Who would dare say that it is wrong to focus your mind on finding an opening in an opponent who is weaker than you in order to be fully prepared?

If he had been too cautious and not moved, he might have heard some grumbling, but that didn’t apply to Noi right now. He was trying to exploit the girl’s weakness by mobilizing all his abilities.

Nevertheless, it was certainly remarkable that there was nothing that could be called a clear loophole until the moment the girl swung her sword.

But what meaning would there be in swinging swords in the yard where they are located at opposite ends of the garden, which are not even remotely close, and which cannot possibly touch each other? If we look at the difference in skill between the two, it would be embarrassing to call it a threat, but it would be nothing but arrogance to dismiss it as a dance move.

However, Noi, whose job is to always surprise and kill his enemies, did not let his guard down. Rather, he wanted to prepare for the new possibility that the girl might be holding a magic sword. It was a result of a very common-sense judgment that even if his mind was full of flowers, he would not suddenly swing his sword at the air as a threat.

Of course, even taking that into account, the fact that the girl is not a threat does not change.

If there was a sword that could swing at an opponent from this distance and shoot something fatal, everyone in the world would be desperate to carry or make such a sword. Would they fight by ignorantly clashing weapons?

If it was a divine tool with such power, it would be impossible for a human to not sense its presence, so Noi’s only action was to quickly duck to avoid the girl’s sword swinging towards his neck.

At the moment when I was about to jump forward with my concentration and senses raised to the limit,

Noi was startled by the eerie sensation of the back of his neck being cut from the ‘inside’ and he quickly lowered his head.

“Ahh!”

The pain spread as the skin was cut open, but that wasn’t important right now.

Noi’s face twisted as he barely accepted the fact that if he hadn’t prepared to close the distance with his full force and snap his neck, he would have died instantly from a beheading without even knowing how he had been hit. He couldn’t help but ask the question even though he knew he would never hear an answer.

“What the hell are you talking about…!”

I instinctively put my hand to my neck, but it was definitely only a cut to the skin. It wasn’t even bleeding. It would start to heal in less than three days.

Because it was such a minor injury that it was possible to predict it in an instant, Noi had to sweat and worry about it.

Just like the skin that ends with a slight cut, the neck was clearly ‘cut’. If it had been a little deeper, the inside would have been cut to the point where the bone would have come out. He hesitated at the result that was far beyond common sense, but the girl swung her sword without thinking as if she had no intention of giving him time to think.

‘ankle·’

Noy had read the attack in advance through the blatant gaze and trajectory, but his actions were a little late. It was so blatant that he couldn’t shake the feeling that it was a trick.

Does that mean I should give up avoiding it and rush in? That wasn’t it either.

Because trying to find out with your own body whether the attack was real or fake was like gambling with your ankles tied.

“Shit!”

In the end, Noi decided to fly away again after a somewhat late decision. Then, he turned his eyes to check the results of the attack the opponent had attempted, but unlike when he had cut off his own neck, the ground where his ankle had just been was extremely dull.

Only when he saw the slaughter flying towards him again, as he was trying to avoid it in a hurry and his posture was twisted, did Noi realize that he was completely caught up in it.

It was not the girl who had buttoned up the first button wrong, but he himself. Now he had no choice but to endure the damage.

Armor was useless in the face of an incomprehensible attack. What use would a lightweight leather armor be in the face of a strange technique that ignored even the skin and struck inside the body? Even if it was a high-quality product made from the best demon leather, it was no different from running around naked.

With his superior physical strength and movement, he quickly closes the distance? He dodged the attack aimed at his ankle like that. But he swung his sword as if he had expected it, so I lost confidence in that.

‘There were three master-level ones?’

This is ridiculous. No matter how many important figures are gathered here, this is the rear, not the front line. Three master-level soldiers are not only overpowered, but I have never heard of a girl with such strange abilities among them.

While I was unconsciously continuing to deny reality, the target was my torso.

Noy, who made a decision late, attempted a frontal breakthrough.

‘I can’t run’

If·

If that attack really cuts through space, the only thing that will remain is a future where you fall down as a piece of meat the moment you fly up into the sky. However, flying sideways will only lead to another attack, so the only option is to lie down.

When the girl’s sword was swung so close that it was impossible to retrieve it, she fell down and jumped on all fours, bending her upper body.

Strictly speaking, it would be more appropriate to say that he was shot like an arrow rather than running.

His strength, which had even allowed him to climb up the castle walls in an instant, was clearly demonstrated by the way he dug through the dirt floor of the garden, sending his master’s body flying. From a half-standing posture to lying down and moving like a quadruped in an instant, his strange flexibility and exquisite movements were combined to make him look like a cat.

Even this was a gamble, but the girl’s attack only caused damage to a small amount of hair and a part of her back skin, so it was a great success from Noi’s perspective.

Although the momentum was not satisfactory due to the soft soil, Noi intuitively felt that he could reach the girl if he waved his arm one more time. Only then was he able to take the time to closely observe the girl’s face that had been hidden in the shadows.

At first, his face, which had clearly been fine, had turned pale, and sweat was pouring down like rain. Noi’s heart pounded as he instinctively realized that this was the price for abusing the technique that had threatened him.

The girl’s movements, as she watched him with bloodshot eyes and moved back hastily, were the same. Judging from the fact that it was not the movements of an ordinary person, it was clear that she was an Aura user, but compared to when she swung her sword, her movements were incredibly slow.

Noi, who had been focusing all his attention on the girl, smiled confidently, and his arms swung like a spring.

The movement was truly master-level, but…

“Boom!”

The girl was not reached by a dog that suddenly appeared.

-Kkaang!

Even the dog blocking the road was unable to tear it apart, and instead the arm was thrown out with an incomprehensible metallic sound.

Even though it was understandable that he didn’t notice the approach from the blind spot because he was focused on the girl, it was impossible for him to accept that his full-power attack on a mere bastard was blocked, no matter how much he tried.

“What the hell is this fucking dog?!”

“Arrrrr!”

…Is it really a dog?

It looked like a dog and it made a dog-like sound, but its fluffy fur made a sound that it couldn’t fly, so it seemed right to see it as something else with the shape of a dog. A spirit? I’ve never heard of a spirit with a physical body?

“What on earth is this place that makes it like this···”

His last words, ‘Are all the weird things gathered together?’ were not able to come out of his mouth. An arrow shot from the sky in the distance distracted his nerves, and five of his compatriots ran out of the building and swung their swords at the same time.

The skills of the traitors, each of whom had one horn cut off, were nothing special by Noi’s standards, but their fierce joint attack, as if they had anticipated a stronger enemy than themselves and had coordinated in advance, was not something to be ignored. At first, Noi moved his body with the intention of attacking and killing them in return since there were not many of them, but in the end, he was only able to cause two casualties and had no choice but to take a step back.

“Ha… nothing works out.”

As the situation reached that point, Noi’s gaze wandered around, unable to find a direction, between the girl who was staggering as if she would collapse at any moment, protected by something in the shape of a dog, and the unidentified sniper in the inner castle.

If you do things roughly, things will go wrong, but it’s okay to do that.

On the contrary, if you work hard and things go wrong for some strange reason, you can’t help but get angry. Noi is exactly like that now.

If things went wrong because of an enemy of the same level or greater power, I would understand that, but is it even possible that such strange things that you would only see once in your life would suddenly gather together and block your path?

The resentment that welled up like that made me look back on my pride in my own abilities. Then, as much as the pride I had built up over time, I felt ashamed about this situation.

It didn’t take more than a few seconds for the shame and the corresponding anger to build up.

-Phew!

Even the sound of a whistle blowing from somewhere seems to be mocking his own failure.

Yes, failure. This is not a slight mistake, it is a clear failure.

Even if the hero is still outside, the spirit mage Serta, who is guarding the castle, will join the battle, and in that case, he will have to flee, giving up on recovering the item called the Divine Remnant and killing the hero.

He was an assassin after all, and there was no assassin who would engage in an all-out war with the military.

It was an obvious fact, but for some reason, this time, Noi’s hand unconsciously moved into his arms, unable to understand it at all.

“You fucking bastard”

And then I took out the black bead-like gift from the Demon King and looked at it and thought,

Did the Demon King of Foresight see this future?

Even though I saw it, instead of giving a warning or advice, I was given something unidentifiable and was it thrown out as a favor to be used when in danger? Or was it just a coincidence?

There was no way to know right now, so the only option left was to put the Demon King’s gift in my mouth.
