Dear My Knight

3. Asherah Glade

***

The scene of the slaughter.

In that horrific scene, Ashera continues to become aware of her body becoming as heavy as water-soaked cotton.

Mana continued to fill up and disappear as it was repeated several times, to the point where even the sensations of her body felt strange.

“The mandible….”

Ashera catches her breath and chases after Rachel, who hurries through her space with her gaze.

It was as if she was deliberately provoking herself.

The move of killing the family knights was too simple.

A seemingly simple blow, as if a sword was being swung at high speed.

However, if something like light shines from the tip of the sword, the knight of the Glade family will surely fall.

It’s threatening, but people who shouldn’t be knocked down like that keep falling down.

And the cause was that most of the knights were suffering from mana exhaustion immediately after using the blue storm brother.

That’s why Rachel’s actions seemed like massacring people who couldn’t resist.

Ashera, who showed signs of exhaustion, continued to pursue Rachel, biting her lip.

Reaching where Rachel is, she forcibly uses her swordsmanship, as Ashera applies her spur to her own body, which is gradually dulling.

Glead family swordsmanship type 4.

ㅡThe flow of the waterfall.

Ashera rushes towards Rachel as if her sword is rapidly changing.

The blue wave, like a blue haze, became thin and existed only on the surface of the sword body, but it did not create a large wave like before.

As if reminiscent of the flow of a strong waterfall continuously falling down, he uses a series of attacks without rest.

Kaka Kaka Kakang!!

Rachel calmly accepts Ashera’s sword attacks that continue to rush in.

The droopy left hand obviously interfered with Rachel’s ability to use the sword. I could even feel the composure in Ashera’s expression as she accepted her sword.

“Come to think of it, he said Ed.”

Rachel suddenly opened her mouth, and Ashera just continued to brandish her sword with a fiery expression.

Rachel uses a type 9 full moon, consumes close to 50% of the total mana, and has a subordinate in her left hand.

Asera’s body’s mana fills up and continues to drain at the same time.

Even though the condition of each other was not good, the superiority was so clearly divided.

“Did you really ask about him?”

“What… meaning… there is… Joe?”

Asera continued to gasp for her breath as she spoke.

Her body no longer had enough strength just by casting the 4th type swordsmanship.

Her whole body was filled with sticky fatigue that seemed like she would collapse at any moment.

She was like that, it was her temptation that once she lost her consciousness, it was as if she could be at ease.

Her vision continued to blur, and she wondered if she had ended up here.

The corpses of the knights entering the blurry field of view and the traces of those corpses were one and the same, so the current situation felt unrealistic.

As she left the House of Gleard, she did not achieve anything she had hoped for.

To find out Ed’s whereabouts and save him, or to take revenge on the person who killed Ed.

In the end, this was the conclusion he had brought out with so many articles.

If only I had known this….

If it was like this….

I should have approached you from the beginning.

Even the sword she was holding felt so heavy that Ashera felt her own arm drop.

Asera completely lost her fighting spirit and slowly put down her sword.

“Ed’s… where is the body… Joe.”

Rachel, who was about to extend her sword inadvertently to that defenseless figure of Asera, stopped at that voice that was too subdued.

“The corpse… why?”

“To die… I want to see you before… Just because.”

Kang.

The sword fell from Ashera’s hand and made a noise as her sword rolled across the floor.

It was those eyes again.

Rachel recalled her older sister’s face from Ashera’s appearance.

As if before giving up on life. It’s like facing her older sister at that moment….

Even though she comforted herself and begged her to come to her senses for several days, her sister who passed away.

And at the end.

It was as if her own voice echoed in her ears as she cried over and over again why did she leave her world so vainly, leaving herself alone.

“Answer… do it.”

Rachel wakes up from her thoughts at the sound of Ashera’s weak voice, as if asking for an answer to her own words.

Rachel finally understood.

Why did she ask about Ed?

And why are you still asking?

Rachel slowly takes her eyes off Ashera and looks around her. I look at the corpses and traces of numerous knights who are scattered all over the place.

‘… ….’

I feel like I’m missing something as a person.

No, she already knew that it was too late for her to be a person herself.

She lives as a mercenary, thinking only of revenge for her family.

Killing someone, he has no qualms about killing someone he has no grudge against.

—- … The idea that she kills people too easily. Won’t you?

Why did Ed’s voice suddenly ring in Rachel’s head?

She has already killed more than three digits of people, so does killing someone else have much to do with it?

As if her own thoughts were being blocked, her heart became endlessly frustrated.

“…… Ha.”

Rachel let out a big sigh and smelled the thick scent of blood stinging the tip of her nose. She slowly raised her hand.

And with Rachel’s light gesture, Ashera’s new model collapsed in vain.

Receiving her new form from her collapsing Ashera, Rachel ruffles her own hair.

“What do I want?”

How far has the family been ruined for revenge?

Even if it takes time to break through the siege of the knights. Might not have killed.

If he had made up his mind to run away from those who were chasing him, he could have been able to run away from them if he had done it with sincerity.

No, closer to certainty, Ashera Glad Her She Her would have outrun everyone except one.

In the end, all of this was an unnecessary slaughter.

To test the strength of the Glaad family through Ashera.

To test Gehea’s power.

For revenge, to be recognized as the true master of Gehea.

Was all of that truly worthwhile?

Buck and go.

Rachel’s footsteps were infinitely heavy as she moved among the corpses of her knights.

***

It wasn’t until night after another day that Ed woke up in a daze.

Rachel was nowhere to be seen around where she woke up.

There were traces, but she couldn’t think of pursuing them.

Ed barely manages to free himself by raising his creaking body, and her lungs move outward.

At the horror he was seeing, Ed blinked blankly.

She couldn’t believe what she was seeing was real.

It was a corpse.

The corpse of a knight.

The appearance of 10 corpses, even if they can’t do it.

They are too familiar to him.

“… How.”

A whitened Ed slowly inspected the corpse, feeling the traces of the battle.

A knight of the Glaad family had a fight to the death with someone here.

For those who belong to the highest ranking knights to die like this.

Rachel. She didn’t come to mind except for her.

In the city of Glia, killing a knight of the Gleard family was a difficult thing to think of except for her.

So, as a party to that battle, I couldn’t think of anything other than Rachel.

Her breasts were complicated.

Why did you do that again? She didn’t even know why she had saved her life.

Then, in his daze, Ed moved towards the Glea de Street.

Feels like your body is constantly being pulled up.

Ed’s body was still not normal.

That meant that the wounds inflicted on Rachel were so great, and Ed only repeatedly collapsed and in fact could not even take a proper rest.

As Ed continued to walk, he bumped into someone on the way and his body creaked, but he couldn’t delay.

Let’s get to the front gate of the Gleard family’s mansion like that.

The knights who were guarding the mansion stiffened their faces in surprise when they saw Ed’s appearance.

“Uh, huh? Now wait, what is it?”

“What, what? I’ve heard that you’re dead.”

The guard, who had been hardening his expression to see if Ed was right or if the current situation was real, let Ed through after a brief procedure, and soon after, a great uproar broke out in Glaad’s mansion.

Recognizing that the guards of the knights guarding the grounds in Glaad’s huge mansion were endlessly bloody, Ed continued leading the body.

Along the way, he was supported by someone, but Ed, who was half out of his mind, couldn’t quite recognize who it was.

Ed’s body, which was still not normal, complained of extreme fatigue from repeated actions.

It wasn’t long after I entered the Glaad Mansion.

Ed realized he was being held by someone.

Then I heard a woman’s voice over and over in my ears.

However, Ed’s consciousness, which was too hazy, did not realize it properly.

Looks very sad.

A voice that seems infinitely suppressed.

A woman’s voice continues to ring in his ears.

Ed lost his consciousness.
