'Yuuya: F*CK. How can she become this much stronger in just a few days!?'
The Transmigrator still remembered that by the time Lumine went into slumber after facing Stormterror, her level was somewhat near reaching 70.
He, on the other hand, was only Level 61.
Hence, in the last few days, he had been grinding to increase his level. And thanks to the system, he was now Level 67 in such a short amount of time. Very close to reaching Lumine's level.
But now everything changed.
Lumine's level rose more than doubled in such a short period of time.
He was so dumfounded that he even started wondering whether Lumine faced the same cliché he had red before in many of the novels in his old world.
About how in some scenarios Protagonist got severely injured but at the last moment a master found him or her saying you have talent and passed their knowledge and experience to them so that they can keep their legacy going.
Or something along the lines.
Anyway, Yuuya decided to put those thoughts away for now because after sensing the killing intent from her, he can tell that she was out for blood. His blood, to be more exact.
Next, he hurriedly took out a potion from his inventory and drank it all in one gulp.
Once he felt that his injuries had started healing, he gave a sigh of relief before getting up.
But then he realized that he was completely naked. So, in embarrassment he hurriedly took out some clothes to wear.
Too bad, Lumine didn't want to waste her time waiting for him to be dress up. She moved.
SWOOSH!!
She appeared in front of Yuuya in a second and swung her sword.
SLASH!!
CLANG!!
Yuuya: At least give me some time to wear my clothes!
He said while feeling glad that he hurriedly took out his claymore and blocked It at the last moment.
Even though he succeeded in blocking it, he still had to grit his teeth because the force behind the attack numbed his hands.
GRIND!!
GRIND!!
As their weapons grinding with each other, sparks started coming out from where their weapons were touching.
Yuuya: Lumine, why are you doing this!?
Lumine: ......…...Mr. Erste.
Yuuya: Huh?
There was a pause once he heard that name. And that was his mistake.
The Traveler suddenly moved her body and took a clockwise turn before appearing behind the transmigrator.
Without any hesitation, she swung her sword at his unguarded back.
SHIN!!
SPLURT!!!
Yuuya: Argh!!!!
A huge gush of blood came out as Yuuya screamed in pain.
It happened to fast for him to even react before a deep cut appeared on his back.
SLASH!!
SPLURT!!!
Yuuya: Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As Yuuya was wasting his time screaming instead of protecting himself, Lumine decided to give him one more slash. Making a bloody red cross on his back.
Yuuya: You B*TCH!!
In anger, Yuuya turned and swung his claymore with his full might.
SLASH!!
But the blonde easily dodged it by doing a backflipped.
Though it was not just that.
Because of her perfect timing, not only did she dodged the claymore easily but while backflipping, she also kicked Yuuya at his chin.
BAM!!
Yuuya: Guh!!
The man's head rose upward as the red liquid started tipping down before the corner on his lips. It seemed as if he bit his tongue a little.
This was something she was taught by Primis. He told her than some defensive moves also packed offensive power. But you must reach the requirement to execute them perfectly.
Like the backflip just now. It can't to be too early or too late. The timing should be perfectly so that not only will she succeed in dodging but also in inflicting damage.
Landing on her feet, she swung her sword horizontally.
SHIN!!
SPLURT!!!
Another fountain of blood sprouted out. Though from Yuuya's chest this time. And it was not the end.
Lumine charged while pointing the tip of her sword in front and then...
STAB!!!
Yuuya and all the people around opened their eyes wide as Lumine's silver sword stabbed right into Yuuya's chest and came out from behind.
Everything happened so fast for others to process what just happened.
Not that surprising since Lumine not only had high level but also high experience.
Yuuya, on the other hand, lacked both. After all he was just a normal man in his previous world and had no knowledge of fighting.
He only started that after arriving in this world just a few days ago. Hence their fight was like a new trainee fighting against a veteran. So, the result was obvious.
In just a matter of a second, Lumine successfully launched five attacks and all of them hit him.
The people around can't believe what they were witnessing since Yuuya was already some sort of hero in the eyes of people of Mondstadt. Seeing how their Hero was easily overpowered like this really blowed up their mind.
The man in question, on the other hand was also shocked seeing that Lumine didn't even hesitate to kill him. There was no mercy in her eyes.
Jealously and Hatred increased in Yuuya's hearts since he knew that all of this was because of only one person, Primis.
'Lumine: Tch.'
Lumine clicked her lips in annoyance.
She was clearly planning to kill Yuuya by stabbing his heart but at the last moment, the man's survival instinct kicked in and he moved his body a little which made her missed the target.
Shaking her head, Lumine decided to not think about it since the man face clearly filled with hatred at this point.
Yuuya: Just what is so great about him that you willing to go such length! He is clearly deceiving yo—
HISS!!!!!!
Yuuya: AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The sound of burning flesh was heard as Yuuya shouted at the top of his lungs.
Everyone forgot that Lumine's silver sword was coated in dark blue flames of abyss. So, now those flames were burning him from outside where the wounds were and also from inside since the sword of still in his chest.
Yuuya was experiencing excruciating pain as the flames inside were burning his organs, veins, tissues, bones, and many more. It was so much he was even thinking that death would be a release from all the pain.
Too bad, Lumine had no intention of letting it end this soon. She wanted to make him suffer even more.
It was also the moment she sensed that she can control her flames better than her anemo. Hence, she decreased the speed at which Yuuya's inward were burning but increase the power of the ones on his back and chest.
This increased his suffering even more as the Traveler sometime increased the intensity of flames outside or something she decreased it and increased the intensity of flames inside. Again, and again. Again, and again. Again, and again. Again, and again. Again, and again. Again, and again.
She kept on doing so and didn't stop even when Yuuya started begging her tp.
The people around already had their face turned pale in fright and horror. They never expected that their Honourable Knight would torture their Hero like this someday.
When it seemed that Yuuya suffering will show no sign of ending, it seemed that luck was on his side.
SWOOSH!!
The blonde pulled her sword out all of sudden and jumped back.
CRACKLE!!
The place she was standing was now covered in ice as two people were now standing in front of Yuuya as if protecting him.
One of them was 25-27 years old man with tanned complexion and navy-blue hair with streaks of lighter blue, accompanied by a waist-length lock of hair that began at the base of his scalp on the back of his head at the left
The second one was 20-22 years old woman with pale complexion and eyes that appeared to exhibit sectoral heterochromia, fading from dark purple to pale yellow. She had choppy, unevenly cut light blue hair.
Seeing them Lumine's narrowed her eyes since she knew who they were.
Lumine: Are you really going to protect him, Kaeya, Eula?
The man sighed before speaking.
Kaeya: I understand what he did was wrong and needs to be punished. However, since he is now my brother, I can't see him suffer like this.
Eula: As a knight, I can't let you torturing him any longer. After all, knights' duty is to protect people even if they are someone like him.
The Spindrift Knight spoke the last line with disgust evident in her tone.
She also hated Yuuya a lot because he was the reason that Mondstadt had become like this. Still, as a knight, she can't turn her back and let him suffer like this.
Lumine: ...…
As the blonde turned silent, Kaeya spoke.
Kaeya: Let's put Yuuya's matter away for the time being. And talk about something else. Like...…How can you use those flames?
He asked while his gaze was on Lumine's sword which was covered in dark blue flames of abyss.
Kaeya was no stranger to Abyss Order. He had even fought them in many occasions. So, he knew right away that that's the power of abyss.
Still, he can't say it outright since the things will bad turn in case people learnt that the new Honourable Knight of Mondstadt had some connections with the abyss.
Eula also knew that and chose to remain silent.
The Transmigrator who was catching his breath currently, heard his and opened his mouth.
Yuuya: K-Kaeya. Don't tell that those flames----
Kaeya: Yes.
The knight cut Yuuya off short since he didn't want him to blurted out something that he shouldn't.
The Transmigrator didn't mind Kaeya doing so as he was too frightened at this point.
'Yuuya: Just what is going on!? It was the other sibling that become the Prince or Princess of Abyss Order and gained the power of Abyss! In this world, it should be Aether! Then how could Lumine use the power of Abyss!!!!!!'
Lumine: I have no obligation to answer your question, Kaeya. What I want to know is whether you are going to stand in my way to prevent me from killing him?
Kaeya: I am sorry, Lumine but yes. I can't let you do that.
Lumine: I see. Then from now on, you both are also my enemy.
Kaeya: E-Enemy…
This caught both the Knights off guard as they never expected Lumine to directly put them in her enemy list right away instead of talking things out.
Eula: Does your revenge so important that you are even willing to fight against us for it?
Lumine: Yes.
The girl replied in an instant as if she didn't need to even think about it. This really astonished them.
Lumine: And he is not the only one. After killing him, I will make sure that everyone who wronged Mr. Erste will pay the price.
Kaeya: You! Do you know what you are saying!?
Eula: Are you planning on killing all the people here since they didn't step forward to speak for him!?
Lumine: Exactly.
Kaeya: You're lunatic! Doing a mass murder means becoming the enemy of every Nations!?
Lumine: I know.
Eula: Then----
Lumine: But I don't care.
Here, she paused and smiled.
Lumine: Because Mr. Erste is all I need in this world. And I know that he won't hate me for what I am about to commit.
Everyone aghast at this.
Never in their dream they thought Lumine would say something like this.
This was the City of Freedom. The city under Anemo God protection. Yet, Lumine didn't care.
Now that she had already decided what she will do, there was no stopping it.
Lumine: Why don't you come out too? I am sure you must also want to say something to me.
She spoke while looking at the alley from the corner of her eyes.
A second later, someone walked out.
She was 25-27 years old woman with fair skin, green eyes, and wavy, shoulder-length light honey-brown hair tied in a side ponytail by a hair tie with a blue rose. Her outfit was largely many shades of purple.
Lisa: Sweetie, are really willing to become the enemy of entire Mondstadt?
The Grand Mage asked slowly. She also never expected that their reunion after waking up will be like this.
Lumine: My mind is set, Lisa.
Sighing deeply, she spoke.
Lisa: Then I have no choice but to stop you.
Once she said that, a grimoire appeared in her hand.
Kaeya and Eula also took out their weapons.
They knew that none of them were going to step back at this moment.
Taking a deep breath, Lumine also took her stance. She was also not backing out even if the number was against her.
Hence, the battle between Traveler and Knights of Favonius was about to commence.
