Chapter 34 (1/2)

“……Guu, what pressure. Who would’ve thought, that there’s even someone like this around”

I can tell that my hand that holds the sword is drenched in sweat. Until now, I have tasted the ‘sensation of death’ several times but, a death this dense is the first.

“Well then let’s go, Flame Princess. I wonder how many can you withstand? Sword One・Gale Galnadof(First Sword・Greatsword of Gale)!”

The knight who wore jet black armour, amongst the swords that are floating around, approaches me with a dark green greatsword in her right hand. Kuu, what speed!? She’s a powerful person who possesses the strength several levels above me. The probability of me winning is low even if I stake my life. However, I can’t lose!

“Haaa!”

“Fhunn!”

Black Knight’s and my sword clashes. Black Knight’s wind and my flame compete and devastate the vicinity but, the current me have no time to worry about the vicinity.

After the swords collided, Black Knight immediately pulls her sword back and from below, cuts upwards towards me. Kuu, what speed even though she’s using a greatsword.

“Hora hora what’s wrong? Flame Princess’ name is crying, you know?”

Black Knight says that as she increases her speed even more. It seems she’s still not serious yet but, that negligence will be fatal!

“Flame Whip!”

I take out a whip of flame with my empty left hand. And then, I aim at Black Knight’s leg from her blind spot and swing. However, the moment it touched Black Knight’s leg, the whip of flame was turned into small pieces.

“Horaa!”

“Guu, kyaaa!”

Uuu, I was distracted by the whip of flame getting turned into small pieces and received Black Knight’s greatsword. I, somehow blocked with my sword but, I was sent all the way to the Royal Castle’s wall because I wasn’t able to let all the power escape.

“Haha, you can also let out a cute voice, can’t you. Still, you can’t get distracted by just something like having your own magic broken. Fumu, do you seldom fight against those who are stronger than you? What a waste”

Black Knight says that as she slowly makes her way closer towards me who was blown away. Until now, it has never been torn into pieces even with monsters as its opponents but, it was broken extremely easily by Black Knight.

……Fufuu, I wonder how long has it been since I’ve tasted such fear, alongside exhilaration. If it’s such a person as an opponent then there’s also no need to hold back!

“Haa!”

I activate in order to change my body into flames. It consumes quite a lot of magic power but, I can’t hold back anymore. I’ll just be careful not to burn the castle.

“Occupation Arts『Magic Unity』”

When I activate Occupation Arts, my body transforms into flames, changes into red colour. Occupation Arts 『Magic Unity』. Combining magic with one’s own body, one can acquire nature’s power.

My forte is of course, fire magic. Because of that, my body naturally changes to fire, to flames which is my forte.

“Hou, something like ‘Flame Princess’, I thought it was just to the extent of rumours but, you can even use 『Magic Unity』. I see I see. It seems your nickname isn’t a lie. How nostalgic. It reminds me of 『Purple Lightning』when I see that power”

Black Knight who raises her voice happily when she sees my appearance. Besides,『Purple Lightning』, isn’t that the legendary Magic Swordsman who was in the Holy Kingdom about 400 years ago? To even be acquainted with such a person, who exactly is this person?
