Chapter 85 – The Strongest Knight

“Binga, crush the enemy.”

A huge icicle fell over the head of the cub from afar. And on that side are Camellia and Ricardo. If you dodge, you will be hit by two attacks, and if you stay still, you will be crushed by a huge icicle. In the past, the Internet expressed this situation like this. The strongest strategy to destroy the enemy, ‘encirclement and destruction.’ say.

“Because I don’t like these trivial tricks or fights…”

Suddenly, the dark blue blade flashed, and the hem of his robe fluttered. Then, the huge icicles that fell turned into small pieces of ice like shaved ice and fell to the ground like hailstones. I couldn’t figure out what the heck this was about. That huge ice has been pulverized by the recent movement?

“I want you to interest me a little bit, heroes.”

“Shut up you monster…”

Ricardo, who was in charge of defense, was covered in blood before he knew it. I ended up like that because I was trying to parry all the attacks coming from me and Camellia.

“Why don’t you use a little ‘power’? As you can see, I’m not an opponent that you guys can fight while controlling your strength.”

Ricardo and Camellia’s faces changed when the bastard mentioned the power.

“How far does this bastard know…”

“Ah, correct me. I mean use the ‘Hero’s Relic’.”

How does this bastard know that? The ‘Hero’s Relic’ is a core system from ＜Dragnity Fantasy 1＞. To be precise, it is a tool that grows with the owner, but in reality it was a system that allowed players to decide their play style by simply investing skill points.

However, after the fight in the first part, most of the holy relics were lost. Thanks to that, most of the heroes didn’t show as much skill as in the first part in the second part, and there were also users who sent a 5,700-word complaint to the developer, saying that the game was inconvenient. And most of the users who sent the complaint didn’t come back. Most of them were disappointed with the game and gave up.

“… I don’t need to use the relic on you.”

“Hmm… Is it possible to afford it until the end? If so, I’ll have to push it to the point where I’ll be in trouble if I don’t use the holy relic.”

After he finished talking, the old man’s life grew stronger. I’ve been controlling my life until now… is that so? Ji isn’t some kind of freer, he’s been playing around with 10% of his life, right? Personally, I hated the cubs fighting while watching the liver like that.

“Release the 1st restraint of Arondite.”

The blue aura gathered in the dark blue sword that Muldae had, and soon spread like an explosion. The explosion was so powerful that even I, Camellia, and Ricardo were pushed back slightly.

“Since you deliberately lifted the restraints, it would be better to exert a little bit of energy.”

“Restriction sucks…”

What kind of sword are you using to play SM?

“Arondite’s first restraint, the user can only wield the sword sideways. Now you’ve unlocked it. Do you know what that means?”

Certainly, the way this bastard was swinging his sword from earlier was unnatural. So, fuck you bastard, did you fight with the trajectory of your attacks restricted until now? Even against the three of us?

The old cub approached me at great speed. While taking a backward step, he slightly lost his posture, because of the blood spilled by the Meragius calf. A meramon-like bastard who won’t help even if he dies. I have never seen a nymph so unhelpful.

I was about to give up a counter with the determination to give up an arm, but before long Ricardo’s shield collided with the young boy’s sword.

There was a loud bang, like a shell exploding.

“Certainly, your skill with the shield is excellent.

A small amount of blood flowed from his mouth as if it was difficult to fully receive Ricardo’s blow.

“Shut up and fuck … you die here …”

“What?”

“357 missing children, 39 confirmed dead… Do you know what this means?”

“We’re in a battle right now. Not even during philosophical discussions, not even when playing numbers games.”

“I used to be like you now… because I was such a fucking bastard…? I don’t know how precious my family is… I know… how precious it is and what I don’t want to lose…”

Ricardo’s shield began to gradually push away the youngster’s sword.

“I was in charge of conveying the death of the dead children… But those who heard about the death didn’t care that I was a noble… They grabbed me by the collar and shouted, ‘Save my baby’… but I’m a knight. I can’t bring the dead back to life…”

“So what are you going to do now?”

“A knight can never bring a dead person back to life… but he can punish the bastard who killed him… and say ‘I’m sorry’ to his friend. No he shouldn’t… Fuck I know that for too long. I got caught…”

I don’t know why, but Ricardo’s feelings came into me. The sense of duty to protect me and Camellia, the anger towards the young man who killed the children, and the guilt toward Melchior, who was not on good terms with the family in the past. Those three emotions were swirling violently.

However, the old kid did not blink an eye even in front of the whirlpool of emotions. Rather, he answered in a calm voice.

“Everyone dies anyway, it’s just that when that moment comes is relatively different.”

“Then you’ll just have to die.”

“Unfortunately, I have no intention of willingly accepting the death of the weak.”

“You are truly one of the best at making fun of your mouth.”

Ricardo pushed the cub away with wild force. Not with both hands, but with one hand.

“You’re stupid, even a kitten won’t die if you push it away with a shield.”

“Of course. You’re not going to run around like a cat, but like a cockroach.”

“what..?”

Ricardo pulled a glove out of his bosom.

“Ricardo! You are…”

“Brother, that’s…”

It was one of the relics of a hero known to have been lost. Among the relics of heroes boasting tremendous performance, the relic that goes well with Ricardo, the Giant’s Gloves.

A fraudulent item that greatly increases the user’s strength and increases body strength and regenerative power in proportion to the increased strength. It was the strongest strength of those who use Ricardo as their main character in the game. He was the so-called ‘Stat Pig’.

“I should be thankful for the grace of His Majesty the Emperor who found this at an auction and bestowed it on me.

Oh, come to think of it, His Majesty the Emperor told Ricardo to stay alone. Is that what you’re trying to do?

“Brother, what about us?”

“Sorry, the only holy relic your Majesty found was mine.”

Well, I don’t know if there is a probability of driving a donkey cock head like this. No, it’s nothing else, it’s a relic, so what’s the point if you sell it as a set? They sell hamburgers as a set, but isn’t there a law saying not to sell them as a set because it’s a sacred object?

So close. If I had my own holy relic, I would have been able to use great magic to some extent.

Camellia seemed to have made up her mind after seeing Ricardo trying to use the holy relic, so she decided to fight properly again.

“I can’t stay still, even though I’ve lost the holy relic… I guess I’ll have to fight with the determination to die.”

Fighting spirit burned in her eyes. His eyes, which had always been rational and cold, burned. I couldn’t stand still either.

“Thunderbolt, become your armor.”

An electric current stronger than before wrapped around my body and began to flow. And I took the stance of Cheonjimatu in earnest… no, the basic stance of Jeet Kune Do. If you approach like just before, you can feed the village policeman with a stinging current.

When we got into our positions in earnest, only then did the distant kid laugh with a satisfied ‘huh’. That bastard has some kind of middle disease, I think I’m going to die from every word or action he says.

“It has to be that much to have the meaning of releasing the first restraint. Come on.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ricardo rushed over. Considering its speed and weight, it would be like a train rushing at you. Its speed and weight were a little too much for him, so he slightly moved his body to the side to avoid the blow.

Of course I knew I would avoid it. He noticed me rushing to the side and hurriedly tried to defend himself, but unfortunately my kick was faster. The young boy who was hit by an electric kick on his stomach slightly lost his balance, and Ricardo and Camellia did not miss the opportunity.

The spear and the sword flying towards him, he was given the choice to be defeated on either side.

Chew!

Unfortunately, the spear missed, but the sword cut something. The problem was that what the sword had cut off was not the youngster’s neck, but the hood of the robe he was wearing.

The hood of the robe disappeared, revealing shiny black hair and pointed ears.

And, confirming that appearance, Camellia’s pupils were shaking.

“All… you…”

When the cub’s face was shown, he spat out words in an attitude that seemed incapable of doing it.

“I am the first seat of the Black Round Table, the one who was given the name Lancelot and the holy sword Arondite. Unfortunately, I’ll end the joke here.”

Soon, his figure began to melt into the shadows.

But Camellia shouted at him.

“wait!”

However, despite Camellia’s cry, Lancelot calmly cut off his words.

“There is nothing I want to talk to you about.”
