Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

–Alia was running at an unusual speed. She threw her dagger and knocked down the demon without fail. She also used a crate on the roadside as a possible obstacle, and when she ran along the wall, she jumped on top of the demons and cut off their head.

At the same moment, she created a “black hole” and threw her dagger into it. She aimed at the flying demon from a distance and struck it down. Leaping from a falling demon, Alia moves further forward.

Naturally, Alia has not been good at fighting in partnership with others. It is only at the level of Iris that she can work together – hence Alia did not work with the members of the Knights. Alta had anticipated this and has left the chain of command to the captain class of the Knights of the Black Wolf. Alia just needed to aim for the desired location.

(……I’ll finish here and go to Iris right away)

Alia’s mind was made up. Iris will say she doesn’t need backup, but if this barrier is meant to target Iris, she can’t be left alone. She believes in Iris, but not supporting her is a different story.

“Anyone who gets in my way–I won’t tolerate it.”

In the early stage, Alia was getting to her destination. Alia sneaked up unnoticed by the mages. On the way, she slashed down the mages standing guard only in places where there was an inevitable chance of detection.

“!”             

The mages would not have understood what had happened. Suddenly, they felt a pain in their back and found themselves lying on the ground. –Assassination is what Alia is all about. A few figures in robes – one of them stepped forward.

“Huh, there’s no point in hiding. I know where you are. …… I know where you are.”

“!”

With the man’s voice, Alia noticed “something” floating around her. It was an “eyeball”. It was not a living thing, but an eyeball. When the eyes of the eyeball shone, she could see the magic power concentrating in it – Alia immediately ran from the spot. A ray of light was released. The place where Alia was dissolved as if it had been sprayed with a powerful acid.

“Well, we finally face to face. And my compliments to you–you’ve made it all the way to me.”

The man took off his robe and revealed himself. He had blond hair and a white suit. In a word, he was a snobbish man. Alia held up her dagger without showing any reaction.

 “…… Huh, you seem like a pretty cool girl. I’m surprised you can remain so calm in the face of my beauty.”

“You’re the mage who created the barrier, old guy?”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“Old…!? Huh, cool girl – I admit that you’ve come a long way, but you don’t seem to have a way with words. How dare you call me ‘old guy’? ……”

“Mr. Ledru, take your leave. We’ll take this place.”

“Shut up. I’m still talking.”

The people in the back of the line tried to move forward, however were stopped by Ledru’s words. It seemed that he was the one who was leading the mages in this area.

“Oh, I didn’t introduce myself. I’m the Golem Master. Oh gosh!!!”

“I don’t have time for this nonsense.”

Alia took advantage of the moment when Ledru was distracted to the rear and threw the dagger into the “black hole” she had created. The “black hole” appeared behind Ledru and pierced his back. The people around him were upset.

“Mr. Ledru ……?”

“Gosh,……, you’ve done it,……, cool girl!”

Showing a calm expression, Ledru looked at Alia. She thought she had defeated him with certainty, but she seemed to have missed the vital point. Or Ledru dodged it.

“You don’t seem to be just a joker, old guy.”

“I’m telling you, I’m not old!　Huh, but that’s okay!　This kind of injury — it’s just the right handicap!”

Ledru spread his arms. In response, the earth shook and cracked underneath her. Leaping backward, Alia kept a distance. What appeared was a gigantic “golem” that was larger than a two-story building. In addition, the “eyeball” also appeared around Alia. These must also be the golem that Ledru handled. It seemed that they shared the same vision – they seemed to let their guard down but were constantly monitoring Alia’s actions.

“Hahahaha, how about that!　This was my trump card as a golem master.”

“…… Huh.”

 Seeing this, Aria giggled and showed it to him.  Ledru’s smile disappeared. 

“…… What are you laughing at?”

“Nothing. I just–I thought we could get this over with quickly.”

Ledru had been using his golem to watch Alia. This is why he was not knocked down by the earlier attack. However, even though he was ‘watching’, Ledru was not able to completely avoid the attack that Alia had launched. At that point, he was no longer Alia’s enemy.

(…… Iris, I’ll be right there.)

Aria took out a dagger from her pocket and readied it. Then, like a hunter aiming for her prey, Aria’s expression changed completely.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
