"Cough cough... cough cough cough!"
Harold scrambled out of the rubble and stood up, leaning on his sword.
"Lord Harold, are you alright?"
Diana nervously reached out to help the man.
Even though the man was in a sorry state, he was still perfect in her eyes.
"Get out of my way!" Harold refused to listen and shoved the woman who was trying to approach him away.
Diana's frail body was pushed and slammed violently against the stone.
"Ouch—it hurts—"
Diana was bewitched by High Priestess Karina.
So she forgot everything about the torture she suffered in prison.
Karina's magic was powerful; although Diana appeared unharmed, she was in excruciating pain all over her body.
"Lord Harold."
Diana looked at the man with a pitiful expression, hoping he would help her up.
pity……
Harold ignored her completely.
His gaze remained fixed on the sword in the boy's hand.
He was determined to get that sword today, no matter the cost.
However, this young man's strength...
Judging from appearance alone—
The refined young man was not even as good as the weakest knight.
Harold attributed the previous battle to the power of the King's Sword.
So he activated dark magic.
The tall knight who had been standing to one side like a puppet.
They all raised their sharp swords again and launched attacks on the boy one by one.
Diana got up after falling, and when she saw the girl watching from afar, a venomous glint flashed in her eyes.
So she picked up a sword and slowly approached the girl amidst the chaos.
"Go to hell!"
Diana raised her sword and slashed at the girl.
Fu Sang raised her delicate face and revealed a stunning smile.
Then, with a speed invisible to the naked eye, he dodged the incoming sword, and—
Slender, fair fingers gripped the sword blade.
The knight's sword, forged from steel, shattered with a crisp crack.
Diana looked at Voussan in disbelief.
People who know magic are generally not good at close combat.
The saintess was also a magician.
If someone gets close in melee, there's simply no time to cast a spell.
The knight's steel sword was crushed just like that?
How is this possible?!
Diana wasn't the only one surprised.
Cassius and Harold looked over in surprise.
Time seemed to stand still for a moment.
Oh My God!
Ugh, I never thought a sword forged from steel could be so weak.
"..."
Fu Sang gave an innocent and beautiful smile.
He sighed, his tone slightly reproachful.
"The quality of the swords worn by our country's knights is too poor; the steelsmiths who forged them must have cut corners."
"..."
The battle continues.
Voussan grabbed Diana's clothes and yanked them hard.
With a 'ripping' sound.
Diana's dress ripped, revealing large areas of her white skin.
This attracted the attention of many knights.
"Ah—!" Diana screamed.
The sight of large areas of her skin exposed to others made her feel humiliated.
"Don't look! Close your eyes!"
Harold cursed "idiot" and swung his sword at the boy again.
[Ding-dong, host, side quest activated.]
"..."
[Side Quest Released]
[Hidden storyline unlocked. The host must enter the Elven realm and use the power of light to dispel the darkness within them.]
Elf race...
Side quests issued by the system are generally accepted by default.
Continuing to dwell on this is a waste of time; it's better to do the side quests first.
Fu Sang looked at that tall, slender figure.
"Cassius."
The next moment, the boy appeared in front of her.
"Your Highness."
"let's go."
The dragon flew down, bowing its head and lowering its body.
The boy embraced the girl and rode off on the demonic dragon.
