Chapter 12 - Battle 2 (2/2)

...

Inside the barrier.

Cleria was breathing heavily. There's a blood on her cheek and there's also a wound on her shoulder. She held her shoulder and felt pain coming from it.

She looked at enemy's force and felt despair. There's a huge disparity between their forces. Although they managed to kill some of them, her group also suffered casualties. All of her pawn died and one of her knight was dead.

She looked at her peerage and saw that they were also injured.

”It's futile. Don't resist and you will not suffer anymore, young miss.” the leader of the enemy said to her. ”I will give you a painless death.”

Cleria gritted her teeth as she raised her palm and cast a magical attack.

The man cast a defensive magic and blocked her attack. He then also launched a magical attack at her.

”Hmmph!” Cleria snorted as she opened both of her hands. Her demonic energy spiked up as the magical attacks aimed at her disappeared. This was the ability of Belial clan. ”Worthless” can make any magical attack and defense disappeared as long as she understand the concept of it.

”As expected of young miss” the man said as he dashed towards Cleria. He pulled back his fist and shot a punch at Cleria.

One of Cleria's rook appeared in front of her and blocked the punch for Cleria.

Bang!

”Aimi!!” Cleria shouted worriedly before she also flew away and crashed into a tree.

”Aaargh!” Cleria groan in pain. She looked up and saw the man in front of her. She opened her mouth and asked, ”I know it's not only about my relationship with Masaomi. If it's only about that, my father would only exile me.”

”I thought too, young miss. The master loves you young miss but it seems that you did something unforgivable. They didn't tell me why would they want to silence you but I'm not in the position to ask them.” the man said to her.

There's one thing that came into her mind, and that was the King Piece. She know that this was the secret that no one should know even her.

Tears poured out of her eyes as she looked behind the man. She saw her member getting slaughtered. She don't have any strength anymore.

She turned around and crawled away. Tears kept pouring down on her cheeks. She crawled away while muttering, ”I don't want to die... I want to meet Masaomi once again... ”

Suddenly they heard someone speak.

”You wouldn't die Sister Cleria”

Cleria lifted up her head with great effort. She saw a black haired young man in front of her. Beside the young man there's a beautiful young lady wearing a black Kimono.

”...Jin”

Jin smiled at her before he looked at the group of devils with anger in his eyes.

”You wouldn't die Sister Cleria! I promise you!”

The Black Trigger - Organon flashed with white light.
