Things about the female knight in black stockings

The identity of the Paladin is obviously still very trusted by the people.

The girl who was timid just now stumbled out of the cabin immediately, lay in Valencia's arms and cried loudly:

"Sister Paladin, why are you here... Wuwuwuwu, we were attacked by a sea monster. My father, uncle, and brother were all dead. I was the only one who managed to survive by hiding in the cabin."

"……Is it?"

Valensa's eyes flickered a few times, and then she hugged the girl:

"Anyway, you're fine. I'll take you to a safe place."

Chapter 173 Discovered from the beginning

The expected attack by sea beasts did not happen, and Valencia successfully took the fisherman girl to the floating tent.

"You must have been frightened just now, right? Come on, drink some hot soup to warm yourself up."

Tia scooped out a bowl of remaining hot pot soup with a spoon and handed it to the fisherman girl:

"Delicious food will make people forget their worries...drink some delicious hot soup and have a good sleep before getting ready for a new life."

The fisherman girl's family members have been dead for a while, and even superior magic may not be able to bring them back to life.

Necromantic magic might be possible, but it would be forbidden.

In the Kingdom of France, children who have lost their loved ones due to disasters like this can receive a very generous living allowance... If all their relatives are lost, there will be various welfare facilities to adopt them and teach them various skills. and introduce them to jobs as adults.

According to the usual practice, the fisherman girl should have a good sleep now, and when she wakes up, she has been sent home by Valenza and the others, or sent to a welfare facility.

If she could really drink the hot pot soup.

"No, no, thank you sister. I just had lunch not long ago and I'm not hungry at all."

The fact is that the fisherman girl waved her hand firmly and refused, having no appetite at all for the delicious-looking hot pot soup.

"..."

Tia narrowed her eyes, exchanged glances with Valencia, and then continued to smile at the fisherman girl:

"It doesn't matter. If you don't want to drink, forget it... By the way, can you tell me who else is in your family? My sisters will know how to arrange you next."

"It's just me."

The fisherman girl lowered her head sadly, covering her face and shaking her shoulders, as if she was crying:

"My mother died early, and my father, uncle, and brothers just died... I no longer have a home to go back to."

"Don't worry, you'll have a new home soon, big family."

Valencia quickly sat down next to the fisherman girl, hugged the fisherman girl, and buried the fisherman girl's face completely in her chest. At the same time, she winked at Tia:

"Come on, it's time for us to go back to shore."

"Ah."

Tia nodded, controlled the floating tent, and flew towards the coast.

The journey went smoothly. As soon as they arrived at the shore, Tia controlled the floating tent to land.

"Hey?"

The fisherman girl blinked in confusion:

"It's still quite far from the city, isn't it? Sister, why don't we fly there directly?"

"Because it is forbidden to fly freely over the Royal Capital... Even if we are all nobles, we must report in advance if we want to fly over the Royal Capital, otherwise we will wait to be shot down by anti-aircraft spells."

Tia smiled and explained:

"And this is also a suburb of the royal capital. It doesn't take long to walk into the city. Besides, I have arranged for the maid to drive a carriage to pick us up."

"Oh~~"

The fisherman girl nodded obediently and followed the two girls.

During the walk, Valencia once again found various topics to talk to the fisherman girl, and at the same time gradually opened the distance between Tia and the fisherman girl.

Just when the city walls of the royal capital were vaguely visible and the fisherman girl couldn't help showing a hint of excitement, a cold light appeared out of thin air and pierced the fisherman girl's heart.

The fisherman girl reacted very quickly and tried to dodge, but she happened to be tripped by Valencia's outstretched leg, and was accurately hit by the cold light.

"Uh……"

The fisherman girl held her stabbed chest and backed away. Strangely, no trace of blood flowed out, and only gray mist came out from her fingers.

"Damn it...damn it! Damn it!"

The expression of the fisherman girl no longer showed any kindness, only regret and ferociousness:

"I didn't expect that you would discover it...when?"

"There was suspicion from the beginning."

Valencia chuckled, but was very cautious. She had all the swords and shields in her hands, and her eyes were always watching the fisherman girl's every move:

"Although you imitate humans very much, you are too stupid and underestimate human wisdom.

This is obviously near the coast of France, but you are using the Four Islands Alliance's method of asking for help?

Moreover, the people on the fishing boat have been dead for at least four or five hours. Why didn't you use that signal to call for help until now?There seems to be only one possibility... The fishing boat was actually attacked deeper in the ocean. You drove the fishing boat near the coastline and deliberately let the water in, in order to attract people to rescue you.

But what really allowed us to confirm your identity was that you refused to drink the hot pot soup I carefully prepared... Because although the high-level fog demon can perfectly mimic the appearance of a human being, it cannot eat. "

"Tsk... I originally thought that you two were just ignorant, silly, sweet noble ladies, but I didn't expect that you were plotting against me."

The fisherman girl's expression became even more ferocious, and mist rolled all over her body:

"But it doesn't matter... I can just kill you and replace you. I can still complete the plan! They are just pearl-level paladins and magicians. I can wave my hand and... what?"

She said as if she wanted to launch an attack, but she couldn't even wave her hand. Instead, she was so weak that she staggered and almost fell down, and grass kept coming out from under her skin.

"Hmph, that's really stupid... The fog demons that can mimic humans are all high-level fog demons. You don't think we don't know this, do you?"

Valencia sneered, and holy light began to condense on the blade of the alloy sword:

"Of course we know that you are actually very strong. Normally we can't beat you... But it's a pity that there is a professional here who can deal with the fog demon... Haven't we found out what is inserted into you?"

"Varied……"

The fisherman girl then lowered her head and looked at her chest, with a sad expression on her face:

"The Demon-Sealing Shuriken of the Anti-Demon Ninja? It was specially made by the Chiba Family... There is actually a direct line of the Anti-Demon Ninja of the Chiba Family who has been using Hagakure's art? How is this possible... Could it be that it's the one from the clan? Did the hateful peace-seeking faction betray me?"

"Then I don't know~~"

Valencia chuckled lightly, and with a stern look in her eyes, she slashed out the alloy sword that had already gathered a lot of holy light power towards the fisherman... the fog demon girl:

"My sword is the sword of God, and the shadow of my sword can cut through the sky!"

"Divinity. Holy Light Blade, drink!"

The blazing holy light tore through the air in an instant, slashing towards the mist demon girl who was temporarily unable to use her power due to being stabbed by the demon-sealing shuriken.

"Don't underestimate me!"

The mist demon girl also gritted her teeth and punched herself hard in the stomach, instantly spitting out a large amount of mist from her mouth like vomiting.

The mist condensed rapidly in mid-air and turned into several animal-like fog demons almost instantly, blocking the path of the Holy Light Blade one after another.

The first animal-like fog demon was easily cut open and dissipated like tofu under a kitchen knife, but the blazing holy light blade was also obviously dimmed.

Then came the second, third... and finally it wasn't until the fourth beast-like fog demon was cut nearly in half that Valencia's Holy Light Blade was finally stopped.

Chapter 174 This is the most talented girl in the capital!

"Be careful, she's going to die."

There seemed to be no one around Valencia, but a whisper came from her ears:

"Crushing part of one's original core to create a new fog demon is a very consuming act even for a high-level fog demon. It is almost equivalent to us humans sacrificing our lives in exchange for magic power.

It seems that the demon-sealing shuriken Sister Xin gave me to protect me is very effective. She has no strength but can't use it, so she can only struggle in this way.

You and Tia hold on a little longer and create a sneak attack opportunity for me, and I will kill her completely. "

"……it is good."

Valencia agreed softly.

Although he wanted to capture him alive and torture him for information, the Anti-Demon Ninja were experts in fighting the Mist Demon, so it was better to listen to Chiba's advice here.

Of course, the remaining three beast-like fog demons would not give Valencia any more time to gather the holy light, and they all roared and rushed towards her.

Valencia swung her sword to meet him.

These three beast-like fog demons look like both canines and cats, and their movements and fighting styles are somewhere in between.

The strength is not strong, and the seemingly powerful claw strikes from top to bottom are no match for Valencia's long sword, and the speed is not as fast as Valencia's.

In less than half a minute of fighting, Valencia stabbed or slashed the three beast-like fog demons more than ten times without causing any real damage. Even if she could cut off part of the fog demon's body, that part could still be transformed. The body recovers quickly after the mist returns.

This is the most difficult thing about the Mist Demon, one of the three major natural disasters in Frenoa. Most physical attacks, no matter how powerful and fast they are, are difficult to cause effective damage to the Mist Demon.

If you want to completely defeat the Fog Demon, there are usually only two ways. One is to completely tear the Fog Demon apart with a pure energy attack like Valencia's charged Holy Light Blade just now, and the other is to tear the Fog Demon apart like Valencia did during the admissions assessment. Like in the first trial room of the third level, wait for the moment when the fog demon attacks to expose the core and destroy it.

There is no chance of accumulating power. Valencia also tried to destroy the core... These three fog demons are obviously more advanced than the big dogs encountered in the assessment. They are very cautious when attacking and have excellent mobility. They are not given at all. Valencia locks in the core chance.

It seems that Valencia is in a hard fight, but in fact Valensa is waiting.

Tia, who had been standing a little further away from the moment the two sides broke out, finally completed her preparations.

She first drew out the first purple card and took a look:

"The first one on the left, 136 mm from seven o'clock where the right hind leg connects to the body."

"receive."

Valencia narrowed her eyes, and her movements, which seemed to be barely parrying the siege of three fog demons, accelerated instantly. She threw away the other two fog demons and went around behind the fog demon whose core position was pointed out by Tia.

Stinging sword!

brush!

The alloy sword with cold light accurately hit the target point, and then the second burst of power directly pierced the body of the fog demon and completely shattered a fist-sized core of the fog demon on the path.

The fog demon with its core broken made a gesture of looking up to the sky and roaring like a lone wolf dying frequently under the moon. Then the whole body turned into real smoke and dispersed in the wind.

Tia followed up and drew a second purple card:

"The second one, 47 mm behind the right ear."

"coming."

Valensa dodged to avoid the claws of the fog demon, and used her shield to block the bite of another fog demon. Then she jumped and flipped neatly on the spot, then rode on the target fog demon, and used the dragon tooth dagger to hit her hard. It pierced the position behind the ear of the fog demon.

Although the nail sword was not used this time, the dragon tooth dagger was already very sharp. In addition, the core hidden behind the ear could not be too deep in the body, so it could easily be destroyed by Valencia again.

The second beast-like fog demon also dispersed with the wind.

Two fog demons were killed in a row. The girl who controlled the beast-like fog demon finally realized that Tia, who could see through the core of the fog demon, was even more threatening.

So the last beast-like fog demon immediately moved away from Valencia, turned around and rushed towards Tia.

Valensa did not hesitate at all, and did not return to Tia's aid. Instead, she accelerated explosively again, rushed in front of the fog demon girl in an instant, and slashed with her sword.

brush.

The alloy long sword had no dull feeling and was smoother than cutting tofu with the sharpest kitchen knife, causing the fog demon girl's head to fall to the ground.

Then Valencia kept attacking, and her horizontal slashing motion was a backspin kick, kicking the Fog Demon girl's body away. At the same time, she slapped the round shield on her other hand and slapped the Fog Demon girl's head on the ground. broken.

"...Tch, are you really not here?"

There was no sound of core breaking, which made Valencia a little regretful.

A high-level fog demon that can perfectly mimic humans. Its core can move freely within the body and is used to avoid various fatal attacks. Even Tia's secret technique is difficult to lock.

Valencia thought about trying her luck with a sneak attack, but unfortunately her luck, which was guaranteed to win when drawing blind boxes, was still not high even if it had been strengthened. The core of the Fog Demon Girl was not in her head before.

The head of the mist demon girl who was kicked away quickly grew back, and the animal-like mist demon from before also arrived in front of Tia, revealing its ferocious and sharp fangs and claws, and pounced on her fiercely. .

"Hmph, courting death."

Tia didn't dodge, she just sneered.
