Chapitre 34: Chapter 34
The members of the Swords of Darkness sensed the ominous aura of death emanating from the girl. Immediately, they drew their weapons, ready for the next battle.
However, despite their tense stance, the girl spoke nonchalantly.
"That is seventh-tier magic, difficult for ordinary people to use, but it can be wielded with the Crown of Wisdom."
"Of course, even with the crown, we can't control all the undead, but we can guide them."
"A truly perfect plan... It's flawless..."
Feeling the girl's breath grow stronger, one of the members said seriously,
"Mr. Nfirea, retreat quickly! Get out of here!"
The confident tone of the woman in front of them made it clear she was incredibly powerful.
"That woman keeps talking because she's confident she can deal with us. Since you're her target, please run away as soon as possible."
The Swords of Darkness formed a protective barrier around Nfirea, who was retreating in panic.
"Ninya! You back off too!"
Lukrut shouted loudly, following Dyne's lead.
"Take him away! Don't you still have to rescue your captured sister?"
"Yes, there's something you must do. Though we may not be able to help you all the way, at least we can buy you some time."
"Everyone..."
Ninya didn't know what to say.
"Everyone..."
Watching this tearful scene unfold, the girl couldn't help but comment,
"Hmm... It's really tear-jerking... even I'm almost crying, hmm."
"But if he runs away, I'll be in trouble. Let's leave one person to play with."
After saying this, the girl pulled a short awl from under her robe.
At that moment, the door at the back opened, revealing a pale, thin man.
He said seriously, "... You've gone too far."
"Huh? What did you say... Kaji, shouldn't you be keeping watch outside? Keep the screams from getting out. They're just ordinary adventurers. Let me have some fun."
Nfirea felt a chill run down his spine from the girl's manic tone and grin.
"Then there's no way to escape. Let's begin..."
But another voice interrupted,
"Clementine, I think we should show some mercy, as this might affect our plans."
A person slowly emerged from the backyard door, accompanied by a young girl.
"Nice to meet you, members of the Swords of Darkness. Do you need to hire an adventurer who can protect you?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Clementine immediately turned her attention to the newcomer.
Why is he here?
Isn't this the guy I saw before?
Clementine forced herself to smile calmly.
"This guy... Oh, isn't he the boy I met the night before? The one with the white-haired girl beside him..."
Sure enough, just as before, it was the white-haired girl.
Khajiit, standing not far away, seemed to recognize the man. He turned to Clementine and asked quietly,
"Who is this guy?"
"Me? Just a kind person passing by."
After speaking, he glanced at the group of adventurers. The members of the Swords of Darkness and Nfirea saw the opportunity and quickly fled the house, rushing behind him.
"My Lord Adventurer, if you can save us, we can pay any amount!" Lukrut didn't hesitate to offer.
"Okay, I accept it. Thank you for hiring me, a 'mithril-level' adventurer."
Khajiit, still unsure, observed Clementine's nervous reaction.
He asked quietly,
"Hey, what's up with this guy?"
Clementine swallowed hard, uncertain what to say.
After all, after that night, she had been wondering if she had become weaker...
But even so, it was impossible for the guy who didn't use any martial arts to remain unscathed.
With a wry smile, Clementine said to Khajiit,
"That guy is very strong... We can't play with him. Take Nfirea away quickly."
Seeing Clementine so nervous and serious, Khajiit realized she was genuinely afraid.
It seems this guy is really not someone to take lightly...
Khajiit, having never seen Clementine so on edge, nodded in understanding.
"Nfirea, go find Mr. Momon."
Lukrut added, "If it's a mithril-level adventurer, he's certainly powerful, but Mr. Momon can definitely handle it."
Just as they were about to leave, Clementine used two martial arts skills and rushed out the door. She grabbed Nfirea and pulled him away before they got too far.
Khajiit took advantage of the chaos and made his escape.
"Your Excellency Adventurer..."
Looking at the indifferent Genji, everyone felt a sense of confusion but also awe in the face of such a powerful opponent.
In truth, Genji had let them go on purpose, but he said nothing to reveal his intentions.
"That's Clementine… her strength is comparable to Gazef's."
After hearing this, the others were stunned.
Someone comparable to Gazef?
How could they possibly defeat such a person with just a mithril-level adventurer?
It would take at least stainless steel-level to stand a chance.
Once they realized the truth, no one said much more. They were just thankful to have escaped with their lives.
Without hesitation, they quickly made their way to the Adventurer's Guild, determined to find Mr. Momon.
"Ah~ Now that we've saved the useful guy, let's head to the cemetery and look for those two little ones."
