Chapter 212 – THE DEMON SWORD CUPID (1/2)

CHAPTER 212 – THE DEMON SWORD CUPID

In the peak of Mount Sirulia, I held Hikari who returned to her Demon Sword form.

「Let’s begin」

『Un!』

Hikari’s innocent voice echoed in my head.

Soon after, the blade of the Demon Sword started to glow with a faint light.

Although it is a different light from the aura I’m normally using, I’m familiar with it.

The same scene occurs when Eleanor summons her Undead Army.

And I was right. Soon after, drakes appeared one next to the other around me.

Hikari’s summoning, dragon servants.

They exceeded a hundred and almost covered the peak of the mountain.

「Is this all?」

『Un! Everyone came out』

「Can you keep them again?」

『Wait a second. Mumumumu〜……』

Hikari groaned. Although she’s in her Demon Sword form, her appearance of narrowing the eyebrows of her lovely face naturally came to my mind.

I couldn’t help but smile.

And gradually, all of the drakes disappeared.

『I did it〜!』

「Let them come out once more」

『Un!』

A hundred drakes were summoned again.

The Demon Sword Hikari’s servants, the Dragon Army.

It looks like she’s able to let them exit and enter.

「As expected of Eleanor’s child」

「I, I think that I might’ve seen a historical event just now」

「What does that mean?」

Olivia was impressed yet convinced, Io was astonished, and Tanya was mystified.

It’s interesting how the girls’ reactions were different.

『So, what are you going to do now? Don’t tell me you’ll release them just like this? I have never heard that dragons have been involved in the founding of Mercouri』

「Your memories aren’t that reliable in this case after all」

『What did you say?』

「If you want to deny it, try remembering something about this era」

『Muu……』

Eleanor fell silent. It looks like she can’t say anything back when that was pointed out.

「Well, however. I get what you’re trying to say. And so」

I grabbed Eleanor’s hilt and released the dark aura.

I enveloped the drakes that Hikari summoned with that.

『Wawawa〜, everyone turned into humans〜!』

「Camouflage aura. I only made them look as if they turned into humans」

The appearance drakes that was enveloped by the aura quickly turned into human soldiers.

They all look like humans. The equipment they are wearing is based on Knight Fortis who was with Helene when we first met.

The horde of drakes turned into knights of Mercouri in an instant.

『Wa〜, it’s the same with Helene-oneechan’s subordinates〜』

「With this, we can participate in the battle」

『Un! It’s so amazing, everyone looks like a real knight』

Hikari was impressed.

As long as one doesn’t possess powers that exceed Eleanor, her camouflage aura cannot be seen through.

Although they are both Demon Swords, Eleanor’s daughter, Hikari, is weaker so she can’t see through them.

I looked at Olivia for no particular reason. She’s making an impressed expression.

If the Dragon King Olivia can’t see through it, then it should be alright.

With this, the preparations to participate as “Mercouri” is finished.

Deep within the night, at the peak of Mount Sirulia.
