Chapter 104




The young man looked at Charlize.
Somehow, he felt incompatible.
Because she is very beautiful. Her hair, like a mixture of blonde and silver hair, was mysterious.
As if the scent of the clear forest existed for Charlize. There was a calm and tranquil atmosphere.
She looked very delicate in a light blue dress.
But it never felt small and weak. Even if it looks like she’s holding the sword in her hand.
There was an overwhelming charisma when he met her face.
The strange impression of Rapine harmonized very well. Like one body.
No,
‘Like a beast.’
It seemed like an unrealistic threat.
“…I’m sorry we’re late for the appointment, but I didn’t know they’d come in…”
The man took the lead and apologized.
The clan members blushed at once. It was a shame.
Because to Rapine, a promise was an absolute concept that must be kept.
Charlize replied with an indifferent look on her face.
“Okay, you mean those wizards?”
The man trembled slightly, realizing the wizards scattered around them.
‘It is an elegant death.’
It was a thought that crossed his mind as he looked at the wizards with no scars left.
She’s cold and thorough, but she’s so clean that it gives him goosebumps.
Charlize came alone.
She was fine, without a single distraction, disregarded by the fear that she might get hurt.
There was not a drop of blood on Charlize’s sword.
‘Is this woman the young noble lady of the Empire?’
Although he knew about her swordsmanship skills, he heard that she was the emperor’s lover, the grandmaster.
She was very different from the image he thought of through rumors.
She is too beautiful and too strong.
She was a confused being.
“How many wizards are there?”
Charlize asked dryly.
The wizards were a difficult one to deal with Rapine’s warriors. Twenty of them were knocked down, and Charlize remained calm.
“More than that… Isn’t there something more important?”
The man asked sharply, showing the letter from his arms.
“The letter you sent here, is it true?”
A letter suddenly appeared in the air.
It was neither magic nor illusion, but a mysterious harmony.
The content was even more amazing.
Because it perfectly penetrated the characteristics of the clan that even Rapine’s leader did not know.
And then.
“You. Do you know where the god of the clan is?”
“Yes.”
Charlize answered firmly.
The clan members were stirred up.
God, what it is.
‘The pride of Rapine that contains the spirit of the clan.’
Anyone in Rapine was determined to risk their lives for the sake of God.
And Charlize said, ‘If you cooperate, I will find and return it to you.’
“How does an outsider know the existence of a god? Tell me!”
The man shouted threateningly, pointing the spear in his hand at Charlize.
If you live in Rapine Forest, you will gain more sense than you can see with your eyes.
The man was not deceived by her appearance and was wary of Charlize.
Charlize looked bored. It was as if a slight irritation had been read for a moment.
“If you don’t explain…!”
“Shut up.”
Charlize, who was getting closer, spoke strongly from a distance.
The spear in the man’s hand was crushed by the force and slammed to the ground.
The moment he woke up, Charlize’s sword was already touching the end of the man’s neck.
The man hardened as he was. As he grew up, he was always regarded as a genius of spearmanship, and he learned from the legendary teaching method handed down to the Rapine clan.
But he now suffered without even seeing when Charlize moved.
It was the first helplessness he had ever experienced.
An instinctive fear that he couldn’t feel even when facing a monster.
The coolness of the sword hung around his neck was real.
“Because I lost more time thanks to someone who was late for the appointment. Does Rapine treat guests like this?”
It meant to stop threatening and give proper guidance.
No intention of killing, just sorting the order.
Embarrassed, the clan members hesitated and tried to hold the sword in their hands, but Charlize was too overwhelming.
The man could not even swallow his saliva for fear of being cut by the blade.
Charlize’s calm eyes show the unique dignity of the ruler.
“Oh, I’ll guide you.”
“Please relieve your anger, stranger. The value of the clan’s god is high, and it is embarrassing.”
Those around her stopped Charlize.
After a brief silence, Charlize withdrew her sword with a bored face.
The man swallowed saliva belatedly, and suddenly touched his neck with his fingertips to confirm. Fortunately, he has no injuries.
But he had a gut feeling.
If Charlize had made up her mind, everyone, including him, would be dead just like the fallen wizards.
“…”
He met Charlize’s indifferent eyes.
The man’s lips moved without realizing it.
“…I apologize for the rudeness.”
Charlize only shrugged her shoulders once.
The clan members breathed a sigh of relief later. It seemed to be fortunate that the man did not show his pride.
He bit his lip as the man picked up the spear he had missed.
When Charlize and his gaze met, he bowed his head. As if someone was holding the back of his neck and forcing him to fix his gaze on the ground.
The man began to guide Charlize.
The discouraged man’s attitude had become more cautious.
“!”
Charlize killed all the wizards on the way.
Just the moment when he wonders what happened. Charlize’s sword was wielded once and everyone was dead.
The clan members who were honoring Charlize looked at each other at the unrealistic sight.
They couldn’t get goosebumps, so they had a thrilling sensation all over their body. The man casually asked Charlize.
“You… Do you need something like us?”
Charlize asked in the letter to ‘cooperate’.
Charlize didn’t seem to be disappointed enough to ask for a deal while finding God.
However, Charlize only answers indifferently while holding her sword.
“I need it.”
“A person who can easily overwhelm like you…”
The young man shut his mouth, unable to finish his words.
However, it was not something that he couldn’t understand at all.
‘Our Rapine clan knows how to tame the monsters.’
It was a way of injecting instructions and communicating with the monster using special sounds.
Not only could they tame and ride the beast, but they could also force the monster to attack the intruder.
Although it is rejected by the general public, saying it is ominous.
The tamed beast was faster than any other means of transportation.
‘Does the grandmaster need that ability?’
But.
‘For what reason?’
Another wizard appeared again.
Again, Charlize killed them too easily this time.
The man thanked Rapine’s guardian deity for the fact that his neck was intact.
“…This is a village, but… It is not the right time to receive guests.”
“It’s an exquisite coincidence.”
“What?”
“They and I have pretty bad relationships.”
As he followed Charlize’s gaze, he caught his eye on the horrendous scene unfolding in the village.
Warriors on beast riding.
The magic tower suddenly attacked and poured out the magic of the attack like crazy. There were screams everywhere.
Charlize asked.
“What will you give me if I get rid of all that?”
“We can kill them without you.”
The man believed in Rapine’s power.
“Yeah, but.”
However, right after the conversation,
Huge magical crystals made by wizards fell from the sky.
A large artificial icicle strikes like a thunderbolt over the crowd.
The beasts that could not be avoided were scattered.
The monsters attacked with their arms wide open, but they were brutally shattered by the wizard’s chain attack magic.
The warrior who fell to the ground was seriously injured and groaned in pain.
The man opened his eyes wide. The clan members angrily took out their weapons and shouted.
“We need to help!”
“Come on, order!!”
The crystals kept falling down. The mansions where the clan stayed were also shattered.
The defensive was quickly pushed back.
‘We must hurry.’
An evil force entered the man’s hand as he gripped the spear.
But the man hesitated for a moment.
‘Can we really win?’
Judging quickly, the Rapine clan was not good enough to deal with the magic tower.
Even if the man entered that battlefield, he could not confirm the victory.
‘No.’
If Charlize didn’t help, the real Rapine clan would be destroyed.
‘The magic tower is quite serious.’
The magic tower has only recently threatened Rapine a few times for a sample of monster, but it has never invaded with such determination.
It would be completely annihilated.
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the young man’s face turned white.
Charlize asked the man again.
“What are you going to do?”
Even in this situation, Charlize was extremely calm.
The navy blue eyes that met him were still, as if asking if he still had the same thoughts.
‘She is the savior.’
The man suddenly realized.
The moment the clan member’s scream reached his ears, his answer was as if he had already been decided.
“Please protect Rapine.”
“If I protect them?”
“I promise to repay your grace, I swear on behalf of the Rapine clan.”
“Who are you?”
“Chase, the direct son of the leader!”
It was so urgent that he thought he had never had his heartbeat so quickly in his life.
The clan members held their breath and looked at Charlize and Chase alternately.
Flames soared everywhere. Now, even one moment is urgent.
Charlize, who looked into the desperate man’s eyes, smirked belatedly. Even her fleeting smile is terribly captivating.
“Remember that oath.”
Charlize moved.
The scene that unfolded after that was unbelievable swordsmanship.
“!”
The man was astonished.
At the same time as the decision was made, Charlize started killing the wizards.
“Who?”
“Keugh…!”
The wizards died in confusion, unaware of the situation.
It was the sword that the man had already seen while guiding Charlize, but when she entered the battlefield, the grandmaster seemed like a completely different person.
Like a man who was ‘made’ for war. More fearful than the god of death.
It was a horrifyingly cool and beautiful sword.
It was blue and brilliant.
‘No way.’
He had never seen a sword like this.
It just fades away at a speed that no one can see. The moment the blade of the sword flashes lightly, the space moves.
It twists the flow and reconnects the cut space to block the escape route.
It doesn’t make sense.
It was a cruel sword that only gave death to the opponent.
“…Argh!”
The magic tower collapsed endlessly. This was a one-sided hunt.
The clan members, who were fighting fiercely, stopped one by one.
Charlize’s perfect sword was unfolding in front of their eyes.
Without the wizards escaping, the swords of Charlize arrive one after another.
It was Charlize’s solo stage.
Also, Charlize had no intention of letting anyone in the magic tower live.
***
Dylan arrived at the Empress’s Palace.
He felt a strange ominous feeling and hurried, so his breathing was a little rough.
Dylan opened the door.
‘I heard a report that she was in the Empress’s Palace all day, and Alperier can’t use magic because of their magic restraint.’
Of course, there was no way that Charlize would have avoided the gaze of Shadow and emptied the Empress Palace.
Dylan’s common sense said.
‘Also, there is no magic that can replace people.’
Still, his intuition kept whispering. He has to go find Charlize.
Charlize should not be judged by common sense.
Through the thin purple curtain hanging from the ceiling, Charlize’s silhouette was reflected.
Dylan walked over, holding his breath.
His fingertips trembled. The emperor grabbed the curtain and quickly removed it.
His heart was beating like crazy.
‘Please.’
Dylan prayed earnestly to whoever it might be.
Soon.
“…”
Their eyes met.
She’s on the bed.
‘That was close.’
She’s not fake. She’s real. It was Charlize Ronan.
Meanwhile, Dylan was looking at Charlize with a cold eye, who can’t let go of his guard.
‘Did he notice?’
Charlize’s eyes sank.
There was tension.
