Chapter 95
Chapter 95: The Master of the Battlefield
The silver wind covered the entire battlefield .
The long sword swung around at a high speed . In a blink of an eye, blood and flesh were ripped apart from the tip of that long sword . So beautiful . That was a very beautiful technique . No one could believe it .
There was no rationality in the midst of war . Even trained knights couldn’t overturn the odds of the battlefield . This primordial hell of blood, flesh and bone crushing brought the man and the elf back to the wildness . Yes, back to aboriginal days .
However, she was different . Caria, who built a mountain of corpses on the battlefield, wielded her silvery weapon with grace .
Even in this hell, her swordsmanship was still showing no signs of weakness . Indeed . No one glimpsed disturbed movements nor feebleness . She never collapsed even once . Her sword aimed directly at the enemy without hesitation . All she had to do was kill the enemy .
Extremely beautiful . She grabbed everyone’s attention . That skill could no longer be considered something human . She repelled the flesh of the enemy continuously . It was not due to luck . In fact, she increased her accuracy every time she faced an opponent .
“…I feel that this hell named battlefield has a strange charm . ”
Everyone put their weapons in their hands and put their lives on the line . It was an ongoing struggle that never ended .
The tip of a spear reached for Caria’s heart . But, the silver wind was faster and precise .
Those surrounding Caria felt a dark pleasure to see the silver weapon repel the attack from the enemy . She knocked the skull of the enemy without mercy, and transformed it into a lump of flesh .
These scenes gave everybody a crucible of emotions . Everybody screamed aloud . The emotions ran high . This became like a theater, but a theater of war .
Caria didn’t change her true nature after all . It felt uncomfortable when her feelings became exposed . Every time she draw her sword, her emotions became clearer .
“…I wish I was a selfish woman . ”
Caria gritted her teeth when she fought . Apparently, she was enjoying the feeling of crushing the enemy soldier’s head .
“I never thought that I’d cling to that man’s feet . Yet, I cannot leave him be . He annoys me so much, but I still want to take his hand . I never thought that I’d be such a selfish woman . ”
No one knew what Caria was thinking in her head . However, she clearly had resolve . Fresh blood spilled in the air and fell upon her body . Caria took a step further as her clothes became bright red . Nonetheless, she kept trying to overwhelm the majority of the enemy troops .
Her silvery eyes narrowed, and her throat made a rough rumbling . The long sword, which soaked in blood, was set up again .
“A selfish woman, huh . ” Her cheeks crumpled involuntarily, and Caria seemed to be mocking herself .
“I am an idiot . I should know my place . Why does a woman like me cling to such a man? Ah, it is ridiculous . All I did was break down, kneel down and plead with that man . Yet, here I am . Why? Because, I do not want him to go . I want him to stay by my side . ” Caria seemed to in conflict with her emotions .
“…This would have been easier if I was an agreeable woman . ”
The long sword in Caria’s hand continued to swing towards the opponents . Caria didn’t waver, nor did she retreat .
Ironically, the sharpness of her sword was too great this time around . Even Caria recognized this change . Powerful but not rough, delicate but not weak . Caria brought her legs one-step further through the battlefield .
I felt as if she understood something in her heart . Her resolve seemed firm .
“Surely, if I turn around, he probably won’t be there anymore . Lugis is such a person . He was someone who didn’t stop . He was not a quiet man after all . Then, why am I fighting now? It is because I decided to do so . There is no other answer . ”
“Even if there is no Lugis behind my back . I am a foolish figure who has no choice but to behave in a dignified manner until this is finished . ”

“…He relied on me for the very first time . ”
“Then, the only thing I can do is complete that request . I do not know if he believes in me or not . But, I believe in him . I wonder if it is okay for me to think like this . ”
Caria herself was envious of Filaret . She clearly disliked that Sorceress . That despicable woman was able to stay by Lugis’ side . “What a nerve . ” Caria thought . Still, Lugis never discarded that woman, which infuriated Caria .
“Then, what if it was me? Will I be able to cling to Lugis’ side without any obstacles? Will it be weird? Will I be reprimanded for doing something stupid? For some reason, my imagination became dark . ”
Caria felt that the man called Lugis occasionally saw something else through her . His eyes seemed to be looking at her, but not exactly her . Caria gritted her teeth one more time .
Caria’s eyes showed fire and tenacity .
Caria was strong-willed, proud, and sharp . A strong person who didn’t bend, who didn’t break, and who knew nothing about fear .
There was no such thing as weakness . Caria never cried, fell or lose hope .
Her silvery eyes glittered . Her long sword roared through the wind as if it had a voice of its own . The blood, flesh and bones of the enemy soldiers piled up around Caria .
This area became the center of the battlefield . Enemy and allies alike . Everyone kept his or her eyes on this woman . Every time Caria swung her sword, the battlefield groaned high . And every time she advanced with her legs, the battlefield moved at the same time .
She was exactly the master of the battlefield .
However, victory was still hard to achieve . No matter how much she did, and not matter how much of a hero Caria was, it was difficult to kill hundreds of enemy soldiers at the same time .
Even if Caria did her best, even if she exhausted herself to death, victory was still far from her hands .

Not enough . Caria and the allies needed something more decisive . A trump card, even though they had none . Something that could trample the enemy and give the allies the awaited victory . A decisive hit, which had not been given yet .
Then, the decisive hit appeared with a roar from the sky .
…Hyahhhhhhhhh!
A scream that broke the skies . A giant monster appeared with a roar that shook the whole world . It crushed the soldiers, overran them, and turned the battlefield into more hell .
Its big red eyes looked like flames, and its huge body quivered with rage . There was only one reason for aiming at this place . After all, this was the location where most elves and people concentrated together in Ghazalia .
Immediately, every single person hurried to get away from that monster . Was that beast the one who drank wine? Such rich flavor that it won’t forget once it had tasted it . The monster went on a full rampage, which even its instinct had disappeared .
This monster was such in a bad state that nobody could call it a monkey beast anymore .
The overwhelming rage was daunting, and its limbs were as strong as iron threads . Even the big belly, which seemed to hide at first, rang its fangs as if it had its own will .
Instead of behaving like its species, this raging monster used its two legs to smash the ground, and both the heavy arms swung in order to catch the prey .
Both the elves and humans saw its’ destructive power . The enemies and the allies felt their instinct . They knew that this giant monster far exceeded themselves in combat power . Even the strongest soldiers had their heads crushed by that monster’s hands .
This was no longer an opponent . No one could resist it .
Meanwhile, Caria was staring at the threat that came down right in front of her eyes . She swallowed her raw saliva back to her throat, as if she knew the danger it posed to her .

This monster was the devil . Unmistakable, a true devil . This monster was supposed to be just a monkey beast of Ghazalia’s surrounding forests . Yet, it threw the skin of the beast species and represented a true devil . This could mark the beginning and the end of this reign .
The people’s wisdom surely indicated that fact . The evil transformation might be the cause of this wild frenzy .
Several arrows stuck at the monster’s arm, but the eerie smoke blew up the arrows from its body . Then, it slowly healed the wounds . This was what sorcerers called a mirage or a vaporization of magical power .
Caria was familiar with this scene . That’s right . At that time, she also faced a fierce hexenbeast .
Her silvery eyes shook with a dark light .
「Hey, big monkey…How dare you come at such a crucial time, you bastard!」
Her voice trembled even though she was angry . Nobody was listening to her voice and skills anymore .
The battle was now swallowed by madness . An overwhelming foreign body that appeared on the battlefield, and engulfed every single being with fear and despair . Of course, the monkey beast crushed and killed all, be it enemies or allies . It didn’t care about the sides of the coin . It just did whatever it pleased . It killed anything that crossed paths with it . This was no longer a battlefield . This place became a scene of slaughter .
In the midst of this madness, Caria muttered as if her mind was at a different place .
「I don’t want to repeat it . I really don’t want that scene to repeat itself ever again . I don’t want to remind it…That’s right, during that time, he wasn’t there to see me!」
Correct . The day when Caria first met Lugis in the Forbidden Forest . Despite watching it at the beginning and helping her, Lugis wasn’t there to witness when she slaughtered the boar-shaped hexenbeast .
That was the thing that Caria didn’t want to remember most . She didn’t want to even think about it . All she felt was frustration, anger and humiliation during that time . Then, on this moment, the silver long sword turned against the devil .
「I have to strike it eight times over . Hey, you bastard . My eight hits are painful, so be prepared to face them here and now . 」
Elves and humans . Caria was the only one who couldn’t stand the presence of this demon beast . She passionately and fiercely faced the newly enemy without reluctance . Caria knew that this was the moment where she could show her real strength . A moment where Lugis wouldn’t turn his back on her .
