Chapter 143: The Silver Holy Knight
Rigel and Cynthia stood ready to face the Heidegger Federal Army.
"Alright, Cynthia. I’ll watch from the back. Show me the power of the one they call the ’Silver Holy Knight’!"
"Yes! Lord Rigel!!"
Following Rigel’s command, Cynthia moved forward. She drew the sword that had been hanging at her waist.
"My name is Cynthia von Blade! I am a Holy Knight of the Kingdom of Wistaria!!"
"Hah! What can a barbarian’s companion possibly do?!"
"We are the Heidegger Federal Army’s enemies!!"
"I’ll take your head!!"
The soldiers of the Heidegger Federal Army swarmed toward Cynthia one after another. However, she met them without a trace of fear.
"Haaaaah!!"
With a spirited battle cry, she swung her sword. The single strike sliced through the soldiers’ bodies.
"Gwah!?"
"Guh...! What power...!"
"Is she a monster...!?"
The power of a single blow was overwhelming. Yet Cynthia’s movements were even faster. She cut down her enemies with such speed that afterimages seemed to linger behind her.
"Damn it...! Just a little girl...!"
"Overwhelm her with numbers!!"
"Yeah! We can deal with the other barbarian later... Kill the woman first!!"
The soldiers tried to surround Cynthia. But she showed no sign of being intimidated.
"[Instant Flash]—[Lightning Slash]!!"
"Gyaaaaah!?"
"Gwaaaaaah!?"
Cynthia’s slashes exploded outward. Like bolts of lightning, they bisected the soldiers with terrifying speed.
"Wh-what is that technique...?"
"Amazing...!"
"So this is the ’Silver Holy Knight’...!?"
The Heidegger Federal Army grew visibly shaken by Cynthia’s attacks. Rigel was no exception.
(Hmm...? Not bad at all. So that’s the blessing of the ’Silver Holy Sword,’ is it?)
Rigel was impressed by Cynthia’s skill. She had brilliantly broken through the first wave of the Heidegger Federal Army. Still, he couldn’t let his guard down.
"Hey, Cynthia! There’s still a second wave coming!"
"No problem! These small fry are no match for me!!"
Cynthia answered Rigel’s call with absolute confidence shining in her eyes.
"Don’t falter! Keep pushing!!"
"If you take the head of the ’Silver Holy Knight,’ there’ll be a huge reward!!"
"You bastards!! Follow me!!"
"Uoooooh!!"
Once again, the soldiers charged at Cynthia. She watched them calmly, without letting her guard down.
"—That said, this many really is a bit troublesome."
Cynthia let out a small sigh. Then she poured her magic power into her sword.
"Very well. I shall sweep them all away!! —[Sword Light of Divine Punishment]!!"
The moment Cynthia shouted, something extraordinary happened. Countless magic circles suddenly appeared around her. From them, an overwhelming number of arrows of light were fired.
"Wha...!?"
"What the hell is that...?"
"Guh...! Gwaaaah!?"
Ignoring the soldiers’ shock, Cynthia continued her attack with calm precision. In just a few seconds, the second wave of the Heidegger Federal Army was completely annihilated.
"N-no way..."
"Something like this..." freewёbnoνel.com
"Impossible..."
"This has to be a dream..."
The soldiers of the second wave lay collapsed on the ground, staring blankly in disbelief. Meanwhile, Cynthia wiped the sweat from her forehead with an expression of satisfaction.
"Phew... That should take care of this for now."
"Kukuku. I’d like to say ’not bad,’ but you’re still too soft," Rigel laughed.
Cynthia’s fighting style hadn’t been bad by any means. However, from Rigel’s perspective, it was far from a perfect score.
"Lord Rigel...! Was there something lacking in my fighting...!?"
Cynthia asked with an anxious expression. Rigel’s standards were evidently very strict. She earnestly wanted to know any points she could improve so she could earn his approval and become his official fiancée.
"Aaah... Well, yeah. I suppose I’ll point out just one thing."
Rigel began to explain. Cynthia listened with a serious expression.
"It’s about that last technique. Its power was too half-hearted."
"Wha...!?"
Cynthia was visibly shocked. The [Sword Light of Divine Punishment] she had just unleashed had been her full power.
"But...! I successfully annihilated the enemy’s second wave, as you can see..."
"Annihilated? Don’t make me laugh. Sure, they’re all incapacitated, but about half of them are still breathing."
"So... you mean my power was too weak?"
"I’d like to say that, but it’s not entirely accurate. Look at the remaining Heidegger soldiers."
"...?"
Following Rigel’s words, Cynthia looked around once more. The soldiers who had previously glared at her with hostility had, at some point, distanced themselves from her.
"Those guys instinctively sensed your power. They judged that continuing would be too dangerous, so they pulled back."
"..."
"Understand? Your [Sword Light of Divine Punishment] doesn’t have enough power to reliably kill the enemy, yet it has enough power that the survivors become wary of you. You need to either increase the attack power and range, or make it quieter and less noticeable when you activate it."
Rigel gave his advice. His demands were extremely high. Generally speaking, Cynthia’s [Sword Light of Divine Punishment] was a highly effective technique, but...
Cynthia accepted his words honestly, without any resistance.
"I see... I’ve learned a lot..."
"Alright. Now it’s my turn. Watch closely."
"Eh...?"
As soon as he spoke, Rigel stepped forward. Toward the soldiers Cynthia had left alive from the second wave, and the rest who had retreated in caution. He smiled fearlessly at them.
—-
Having repelled the first and second waves of the Heidegger Federal Army, Cynthia had succeeded in her task. However, many of the soldiers were still alive despite sustaining heavy damage, while the rest had retreated a short distance and were watching warily.
"Alright... It’s my turn now. First—"
Rigel stepped forward. Without hesitation, he pulled down his pants, revealing his manhood.
"Wha...!? Lord Rigel!?"
"Oh...? Is something wrong, Cynthia?"
"W-why are you exposing your lower half...!? ...W-wow, it’s big..."
Cynthia’s face turned bright red as she asked. Even though Rigel’s male organ wasn’t yet in a combat-ready state, she still described it as "big." This reaction probably revealed how limited her sexual experience was.
"It’s obvious, isn’t it? It’s for the upcoming battle."
"For the battle...?"
"That’s right. Because you used that half-hearted technique, the enemy’s morale and intentions have become scattered. I’m going to unify them first."
The current Heidegger Federal Army soldiers could be divided into three main groups:
Those who had taken heavy damage from Cynthia’s attack and were lying on the ground.
Those who had retreated and were looking for a chance to flee.
Those who had retreated and were waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.
"Unify the enemy’s intentions...? Wouldn’t it be more advantageous for us if they remained scattered so we could defeat them individually...?"
"That would be true if they were on the same level as us. But these Heidegger soldiers are nowhere near our strength."
"Well... that may be true, but..."
"I already gave you an example earlier. These guys are nothing more than mosquitoes or wild beasts. It’s much easier to exterminate them when they’re all gathered in one place rather than scattered everywhere. This is pest control."
"Ah... I see...!!"
Cynthia nodded in understanding after hearing Rigel’s explanation. At the same time, she keenly felt her own immaturity.
"Understood! I want to reach Lord Rigel’s level as soon as possible...! I’ll have to work even harder from now on...!!"
"Yeah, do your best. But for now, just watch."
"Yes!"
Cynthia replied energetically. With a satisfied look toward her, Rigel began walking slowly forward with his lower half still completely exposed. Then—
Jororororo—!!
He urinated with tremendous force.
Thanks to his cheat skill [Rape], Rigel’s bladder capacity was also on another level. The volume was enormous. The powerful arc of urine drew a beautiful parabola in the air before raining down on the heads of the surviving soldiers from the second wave who were still crawling on the ground.
"Uwoh!?"
"W-what the hell!?"
"It’s not... rain!?"
The soldiers were shocked by the sudden event. But they quickly realized what it was.
"This is... piss!?"
"What the hell...!"
"Disgusting!! You bastard, screwing with us...!!"
As Rigel’s urine poured down on them, the surviving soldiers of the second wave flew into a rage. However, their bodies wouldn’t move. Having taken heavy damage from Cynthia’s attack, they couldn’t even stand up.
"Now then... how about it!? You cowards who were trying to run away! Do you still feel like running after this!?"
"Guh...!! Damn it...!!"
"To piss on people who can’t even move anymore...! How can you do something like this...!?"
"Don’t fuck with us—! I’m going! I can’t abandon my comrades and run away!!"
"Then come! Bring it on, all at once!!"
Among the retreated Heidegger soldiers, those who had been waiting for a chance to counterattack began charging toward Rigel. Rigel stood tall and proud, continuing to urinate.
"Goddammit!!"
"You son of a bitch...!! You piece of shit!!"
"We can’t just stand by either...! Charge—!!!"
"""Uooooooooh!!!""" ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Finally, every remaining soldier of the Heidegger Federal Army rushed toward Rigel all at once. Seeing this, Cynthia couldn’t help but cry out.
"Lord Rigel... It’s dangerous...!!"
"It’s fine. Cynthia, stay right there."
"Y-yes...!"
Rigel remained completely calm. Although worried, Cynthia obeyed and waited as instructed.
"Kukuku... Now the pests have all gathered nicely... All that’s left is to exterminate them."
Rigel grinned. He finally felt that the preparations were complete.
"—[Earth Dragon Summon]!!"
Rigel shouted. The next moment, the ground swelled up, and a gigantic earth dragon emerged from it.
"W-what the hell is that...!?"
"It’s huge...!! Could that be an earth dragon...!?"
"No way!? It’s impossible to tame a dragon species...! Summoning one is even more impossible!!"
The soldiers panicked at the sight of the massive creature that had suddenly appeared. Some were so overwhelmed they couldn’t even process the reality before them.
—What they didn’t know was that this earth dragon was the very same individual that Nono had once tamed. Rigel had now taken over control of it, and with the vast magical power granted by his cheat skill [Rape], he could even summon it from a distant location.
"Now then... Since you’ve all kindly gathered for me, enjoy yourselves to the fullest."
Rigel snapped his fingers. The earth dragon opened its massive jaws wide.
