Home of the Brave

Just like the iconic long ears of the elves, the unicorn on the forehead of the demons is also an important sign that distinguishes them from humans in appearance. If necessary, as long as she wears a small sun hat, Patty can instantly transform from a terrible demons into a cute girl who can kill any weird spooky girl in seconds—this kind of dress often appears when the housekeeper goes to human society. , And when he was in the Dragon Nest, Patty showed more of his true colors, so Xia Luwei was immediately recognized.

"Why are the demons here?"

Xia Luwei pulled out the Dragon Slashing Sword behind her back and stared murderously at the demon who looked like a little girl in front of her.

"Well, the little one is a housekeeper hired by the master, of course he has to stay in the master's house."

Patty shrugged her shoulders to express, and at the same time confirmed the identity of the female knight in front of her, but out of formal needs, she still confirmed with Xia Luwei.

"Excuse me, are you coming to visit the host’s guest? Or is it a robber who is coming for the host’s treasure? If it is the former, please apply for an appointment according to the procedure first, and the small meeting will report to the host on your behalf. If it is the latter, you should Follow other adventurers to sneak in, so naturally there will be other people as your opponent..."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Patty's words seemed to touch a sensitive nerve of the female knight, and the Dragon Slashing Sword instantly turned into a silver meteor and slashed towards her. The speed surprised her. Patty leaped back a few steps in a hurry, and finally withdrew from the slashing range of the Dragon Slashing Sword. As he was about to relax, the female knight's pursuit followed.

"Oh, it seems that you have no plans to follow the rules..."

"I have nothing to say to the demons!"

Xia Luwei took a step forward, and the original horizontal slash shot violently at the end of the arc of the sword, a beautiful thrust like an arrow from the string biting the target's throat. Patty didn't come back in a breath, seeing that he was about to become the soul of the dragon sword, but at that moment, a sudden shock wave bounced Xia Luwei back.

"God... Divine Art?"

Xia Luwei took five or six steps to stabilize her figure. Although she was not injured, she was a little dizzy. She stared at the demon in front of her with wide-eyed eyes, and couldn't figure out how she used the magic spell at that moment.

"Ah, it can't be used anymore..."

Patty looked at the ring on his left hand with heartache. A ruby ​​inlaid on the top of the ring had broken and bursts of smoke. At that moment, she activated the magical technique of "shield shield" sealed on the ring, and now this precious artifact has become a pile of scrap iron, but in exchange for her own life, the price is not bad. Not too heavy.

(Scared to death, why did such a powerful character suddenly appear...) Thinking of the thrill of just a moment of life and death, Patty still has a lingering fear.

The demons were originally a race that was not good at hand-to-hand combat. Using summoning to drive monsters to deal with enemies is their strength, but they were almost killed by an unknown knight just after they met, which is too exaggerated. A major cause of this accident is of course Patty's underestimation of the enemy, but the strength of the female knight in front of him is indeed far beyond the level of ordinary adventurers. Patty is determined to make a quick fight and no longer give his opponent any opportunities.

"Know? Your sword just cut off 20,000 lien in one fell swoop!"

To the female knight staring at her, Patty showed the broken ring and declared.

"And the current one is also a high-end product worth ten thousand lien! Please be prepared to compensate for these losses!"

After shouting these words very imposingly, Patty immediately activated another black gem ring in his hand. As the black gem emits bursts of light, six dark magic arrows gradually emerged from the void.

The magical technique enclosed in the black gem ring is the "black spear", which is the same as the "shield shield" in the ruby ​​ring, and it is a high-level sacred tool blessed by the patron saint of the demons and the goddess of chaos, Alicia. Since the manufacture of this kind of magical equipment must offer a very expensive sacrifice to Alice, Patty’s claim of a total of 30,000 lien in compensation has its basis.

However, even though Patty didn't hold back, for Xia Luwei, who was born as a declining nobleman, thirty thousand lien was an astronomical figure enough to make her stunned.

"Three...Thirty thousand lien?"

"Yes, just realize it!"

Patty waved his hand vigorously, and the magic arrow that was originally suspended in the air shot out like an arrow. Each of these magic arrows, which were highly condensed from the power of chaos, had the power to penetrate steel, and the six magic arrows were shot from different angles, completely blocking Xia Luwei's retreat. From Patty's point of view, this time is naturally a good one, she has already begun to figure out how to recover the loss.

"I... I don't have any money for the demon!"

Accompanied by a powerful shout, Xia Luwei vigorously shook the buckler in her right hand, breaking up the first magic arrow.

A dull sound erupted as soon as the magic vector and the buckler came into contact, and the dispersed divine power turned into a shock wave visible to the naked eye and spread out. The remaining five magic arrows were subjected to the shock wave and burst in the air—Xia Luwei only used the buckler. A single blow shattered the magical attack worth 10,000 lien, and this fact made the little butler over there almost fell to the ground.

"Only... give the "Black Spear" with your bare hands..."

It was the first time that Patty saw someone who could disperse the magic by force alone, but when her gaze fell on the object inlaid with the small buckler, she immediately exclaimed. "Dragon... Dragon scales?"

The dragon's scales not only have indestructible physical defenses, but also have extremely high resistance to magical attacks. The small round shield is studded with dragon scales, which is equivalent to blessing the absolute divine defense, and coupled with Xia Luwei's own powerful combat skills, it can indeed exert the power of almost nonsense like breaking the "black spear" with bare hands. However, it was something else that made Patty more flustered than this.

"Are you... a dragon killer?" Patty stared nervously at the female knight in front of her.

Translating "Dragon Killer" into human language also means "Dragon Slayer".

Although dragons are undoubtedly the strongest creatures in Palamia, there have indeed been instances of dragons being defeated by humans in history. For inhumans with human appearance that appear in humans like genetic mutations, dragons usually call them "Dragon Killers". And being approached by such a guy might be something that no dragon would want to run into.

(The melee is super strong, the magic is invalid, this is simply a foul...) The butler sister couldn't help but scream in her heart.

Originally, she intended to subdue the female knight here, but the strength shown by the other party was several levels higher than she had expected. Although it is impossible to tell whether Xia Luwei is the legendary dragon killer, opponents like this monster level are obviously better dealt with by the wingman guards who specialize in combat.

Patty, who had made up his mind to retreat, reached out and took out a glass test tube from his sleeve. The test tube is only the thickness of the index finger, and it contains some dark red liquid. Seeing Patty's strange movements, Xia Luwei showed a vigilant look, but Patty unexpectedly threw the glass test tube to the ground and chanted the summoning spell.

"The nameless beast galloping in the wilderness of chaos, respond to the call of the blood covenant, and show up in front of me!"

The glass test tube fell to the ground and shattered. Driven by some force, the blood of the beast within it quickly flowed along the ground, forming a six-pointed star circle with a diameter of six feet. With Patty's singing, strong gun smoke emerged from the circle, with a choking sulfur smell in the gun smoke, and when the gun smoke dissipated, a monster the size of a lion appeared in front of Xia Luwei.

※※※

The monster has pitch-black fur that resembles the incarnation of gloom, and its eyes like copper bells emit a palpitating cold light, and there is a crescent-like white pattern across the forehead. Under the nervous gaze of the female knight, the monster stepped on the smoking ground and slowly walked out of the six-pointed star circle. Its footsteps made no sound at all. However, a very uncomfortable feeling came from its body. Spread out.

"Dark Demon Wolf!"

When she saw the whole picture of the monster, Xia Luwei screamed out.

The ghost wolf is a close relative of the monster, and the monster is the king over the monster. As the closest monster to a demon, the Dark Demon Wolf not only possesses extremely powerful physical abilities, but can also manipulate demon energy like a demon. The unpleasant sensation Xia Luwei felt at this time, like a needle piercing her skin, was the evidence that her body was invaded by the evil spirit. The evil spirit of the ghost wolf can weaken the opponent's five senses and paralyze the opponent's movements. For adventurers traveling in the wilderness, the ghost wolf is almost the most unwilling monster to encounter.

The ghost wolf, who is given the terrifying name of "wilder predator", is cunning and cruel, and has the ability to destroy a town alone. It can be said to be a monster with a far-reaching reputation. Unexpectedly, the demon in front of her could summon it to help in the fight, and Xia Luwei's expression couldn't help but shake.

"The Dark Demon Wolf is a predator in the wilderness, but looking at your expression, it seems quite clear."

Seeing the female knight's face gradually pale, Patty nodded in satisfaction.

"In that case, let it accompany you to play with you. If you are a small one, if you are in a hurry, let's take a step first."

First, it was daytime, and it wasn't the moonlit night when the Dark Demon Wolf could exert its peak power. Secondly, he was really afraid of Xia Luwei's strength, so Patty didn't change the idea of ​​oiling the soles of his feet. But just when she took a step, she suddenly stopped and stared at the female knight over there.

Under Patty's gaze, Xia Luwei assumed a very strange posture.

She raised the Dragon Slashing Sword high above her head, letting the tip of the sword hang down naturally, changing from the original posture of holding the sword with one hand to holding the sword with both hands.

If Sean was there, he would feel familiar. Because this move was practiced by Xia Luwei during morning exercises, the "irritation style" of the five unnamed poses of the Isailey family—that is, the most powerful attacking pose at the expense of completely abandoning defense. Since using this trick will completely expose one's own weaknesses in front of the opponent, if you can't kill the opponent with a single blow, the result must be irretrievable, which is equivalent to a life-threatening trick, so unless you encounter an extremely dangerous one Formidable enemy, Xia Luwei would not use such dangerous moves.

With the Dark Demon Wolf of the "Wild Predator" as his opponent, Xia Luwei knew that she could only bet her life.

"call…"

The female knight's determination focused on the Dragon Slashing Sword, the full-string bow-like sword force not only caused Patty to feel a lot of pressure, but also strongly stimulated the vigilance of the Dark Demon Wolf.

Without getting a clear order from the summoner, the Dark Demon Wolf moved first.

The demonic energy skyrocketed, and his figure disappeared in the same place in an instant, and then rushed to Xia Luwei in an instant.

No one can clearly see the movements of the Underworld Demon Wolf, the terrifying speed, like a living nightmare.

"drink!"

It was a lightning bolt from above that cut off this nightmare.

The lightning formed by the Dragon Slashing Sword cut off the front paws that protruded from the void, and opened an inch-deep blood trough in front of his chest.

Before the dark demon wolf screamed, the falling sword light quickly rose again. Xia Luwei turned her body with her left foot as the axis, and cut the monster in the middle with a horizontal cut.

When the female knight regained her sword, the nightmare monster had turned into two incomplete pieces of flesh. As a close relative of the demon, the ghost wolf has an unimaginable tenacious vitality. When blood sprays from the fracture of the lower body like a waterfall, the upper body connected to the head is still struggling on the ground.

In the next instant, the Dragon Slashing Sword was inserted from the wolf's head, and the lower jaw was inserted, nailing the struggling Dark Demon Wolf to the ground, and at the same time ended the life of the monster.

Xia Luwei exhaled, wiped off the wolf blood from her face, and looked up at the demons over there. Under the gaze of the female knight, the butler's face quickly turned pale.
