Chapter 91: Dagger in the Back


    A silver-haired girl appeared suddenly in the middle of the monster wave.


    As soon as she appeared, a group of monsters rushed towards her. They did not know how this prey fell here, but they did not care. For the monsters, it was enough as long as they could eat a tasty snack.


    Unfortunately, this tasty snack was not something they could eat.


    Suddenly, the girl let out an enormous pressure. The pressure was so strong that even the two demigods fighting in the air were surprised. They quickly retreated and took defensive stances.


    But Regina did not care about them.


    "How careless of me." She said with a frown. "To think I allowed myself to be separated from master."


    Then, psychic energy surged out of her body. The psychic energy was so great and powerful that all the monsters nearby felt the urge to lower their heads.


    Regina handled that energy as though it was her hands and feet. With a thought, it wrapped around her body and materialized creating a set of beautiful armor depicting an ancient goddess of war.


    Two small flowers bloomed over her shoulders. The flowers hovered silently while emitting threatening arcs of lightning that seemed to twist space.


    [Krigsrustning]. The armament installed in each Valkyrie when they are created.


    It was a Valkyrie''s weapon and armor.


    With the set of armor, the Valkyrie [Reginleif] took a step forward. This step brought her to the air, as though she would have bent space itself.


    Then, she kicked the air.


    *BOOOM!*


    An enormous shockwave shook the surroundings. The monsters and two demigods only saw a sh of light advancing at incredible speed towards the city.


    In less than five seconds, Regina had already flown above the city walls, leaving behind a group of frightened monsters and two demigods wearing grave expressions.


    If Gerald would have known that Regina needed less than ten seconds to return, he probably would have fainted of fright.


    At the same time, a fierce fight was unfolding inside the city.


    Bloed, with a saber in a hand and a gun in the other, was fighting against a group of ck-dressed men. At the same time, Leto had turned itself into ck sand that protected Bloed and restricted the enemies so Bloed could kill them.


    Leto and Bloed''s cooperation was wless. One of them restrained while the other killed. Despite him being surrounded by tens of ck-dressed men attacking frantically, Bloed did not seem too disadvantaged.


    Quite the opposite, he was calmly dealing with the attacksing towards him.


    Gerald''s expression was dark. He thought that Bloed would panic after Regina was gone, but contrary to his expectations, he appeared leisure, as though it was nothing but a game.


    Of course, he could not know that Bloed truly considered this just a game. For Bloed, even if he could not win, he could then order Leto to turn on its flying mode and escape from here. By then, unless a demigod appeared, Gerald would not have a way to make him stay.


    So, he was fighting leisurely, using this opportunity to test the limits of his strength and see how far he could manage to go.


    The ck-dressed men that were attacking him were a total of twenty-five after some of them were killed by Regina. Two of them B-Rank.


    Originally, there were six B-Ranks, but two went to check the situation of Gina, one was killed by Regina, and one more was protecting Gerald, leaving only two of them to fight Bloed.


    But Bloed was not too worried about the two B-Rank ck-dressed men. With Leto''s help, he was confident he could put a fight against them even if he could not win.


    The one that made him wary was Sara.


    Sara''s ability to disappear was truly top grade. Even Bloed had trouble to find her unless she was in ten meters of him. But Sara''s seemed to have noticed it, so she always waited beyond that distance and attacked when she found an opportunity.


    Bloed felt a headache each time he had to deal with her ambushes.


    In truth, she was the main reason he was at a disadvantage.


    Due to the fact that he had to be wary of her attacks, Bloed could not put his entire focus on the ck-dressed men. Moreover, the ck-dressed men knew how lethal Bloed''s weapons were, so they moved erratically to avoid being honed on by his gun and avoided his saber as though it was a gue.


    But even with that, Bloed had managed to kill five of them before two minutes passed!


    Gerald felt angry and terrified. Seeing Bloed''s calm faced while he killed his men and noticing that he had not been injured even once, his face distorted in rage.


    "What are you doing, fools!? Can you not take care of even one man!"


    The ck-dressed men felt angry too. How could they know that his young man would be so troublesome?


    Even when they found an opportunity to attack, the metallic sand would be there to obstruct them or stop their attacks. And even when they decided to ignore the sand, they would realize that their movement had been predicted by Bloed and they jumped into a trap.


    In fact, two of the men Bloed killed had died like that.


    One of the B-Rank ck-dressed men gritted his teeth.


    "Dammit! Suror, use that!"


    The other B-Rank nodded. Instantly, his knife was wrapped in mes. The mes grow in size quickly, turning into a raging dragon of fire.


    Then, the ck-dressed man jumped towards Bloed!


    "Die!"


    The mes consumed everything in the men''s path. Leto turned itself into a barrier to stop the attack, but the me-infused dagger burned the entire barrier, slowly making a hole on it.


    Seeing that the barrier was about to break, the ck-dressed man bellowed in delight. "You are done for, boy!" He increased the mana in his dagger and put more strength in his arms.


    Bloed looked at that scene with wrinkled brows. He could see the second B-Rank preparing a follow-up attack behind him and his senses were picking up the faint killing intent Sara emitted.


    ''... It looks like I will have to use it, huh.'' Bloed sighed and connected himself to Leto.


    But suddenly, he was stunned.


    Then, he smiled.


    In the next instant, a shadow fell from the sky.


    "Die!"


    The blood-red shadow roared in fury. A blood-red giant of mana materialized on her back, lifting its punch together with the shadow!


    The next second


    *Boom!*


    Liu Ying struck the B-Rank attacking the barrier!


    Her punch shook the surroundings. The strength of the bloodline-boosted Liu Ying plus the enhancement of the gloves was so powerful that not even a B-Rank could receive it slightly.


    A cloud of dust formed, and blood sttered in the ground. When the dust cleared, a red-haired girl with a horn in her forehead was standing beside Bloed. As for the B-Rank, his crushed body was unrecognizable.


    "D-Demon!" Gerald stuttered. At the same time, the ck-dressed men took a step back.


    Liu Ying scoffed. "Are you alright, Bloed? I didn''te toote, right?"


    "Your timing was perfect." Bloed smiled at his friend before looking at Gerald. "It looks like your n is destined to fail."


    "Y-You You are a demon!"


    Liu Ying snorted in disdain. "What? is it your first time seeing one?"


    Gerald opened and closed his mouth repeatedly. But then, he started tough.


    "Hahahaha Hahahahaha! Perfect, this is perfect! When the people in the city learn that you have a demon with you, you will have nowhere to go! Bloed, I want to see how you will escape this ti Ugh!"


    Suddenly, something stabbed his back.


    "Ugh... Cough cough... Wha..."


    Looking over his shoulder, he saw a ck-haired tanned girl looking at him with an ice-cold look in her eyes.


    Gerald vomited a mouthful of blood and asked in a hoarse voice.


    " S-Sara, why?"


    ...
