At the moment, there are not many options available to the two. The 'blessing of the Holy Spirit' may be blocked by the other party at any time.

Then, the best way is to pour all your strength into the first strike, in the first blow, and strive to strike first and sweep away as many enemies as possible in one go.

That being said, it is not possible to completely ignore the seriousness, and if the other person is accidentally killed, the position of the two of them will become even worse.

The so-called knight is such a troublesome profession.

Without an order from a superior, you can't easily take someone's life, even if they have murderous intent against you.

So in mid-air, the two of them coincidentally used a magic skill that had a wide impact area, but did not have lethal damage-[Scarlet Phoenix].

Looking up at the night sky, I saw two bright red sacred birds, one on the left and one on the right, flying down in the shocking sound of birds. The wings of the flames whipped up a scorching wind, scattering the entire column of guards in one fell swoop.

The iron armor easily conducts heat, instantly burning people's skin, and the soldiers who were swept away by the [Scarlet Phoenix] fell to the ground one by one, making miserable noises, and rolling and struggling.

But despite this, no one has been killed. It is enough to see that both Stan and Lukka are trying to control the power of their moves.

However, as expected, the flames that wrapped around them vanished the moment they hit the ground, and not only that, but a feeling of weakness as if their limbs were filled with lead surged over their bodies. It seems that the barrier to block the 'blessing of the Holy Spirit' has been prepared for a long time, and the effect is even more than ever.

"Hmph...... Just the two of you? What about Lutga Crusnier, and the female slaves you took away?"

The lord who was hiding at the back of the queue saw that the two wings of the army formation were swept away, but he still looked fearless. It seems that he has healed the scar and forgotten the pain, or maybe this time he is more fully prepared.

"Mr. Lord, Lutga and the young lady have left [Aitania] and are not with us. Now that the two of us have shown up as you wish, please spare those innocent little girls first. ”

Rarely, Lukka spoke before Stein, holding the greatsword at his side with one hand and rubbing his bangs in front of his forehead with the other.

This is a small action that Luca often makes when he is restless, but today he does not have the usual feeling of cowering, as if he is suppressing something, revealing a terrifying atmosphere.

"Scum...... take a few little girls who have nothing to do with them as hostages, you can figure it out!"

Stein, on the other hand, had his fiery emotions written on his face as always. Even without the power of the 'blessing of the Holy Spirit,' it seems to be able to exude a compelling heat with a single wrath.

"Hah! You say leave? Joke! [Aitania] has already laid a net of heaven and earth, and not a single fly can fly out! Presumably for the sake of Mingzhe's life, he abandoned his own daughter, right?"

The lord smiled sarcastically, swaggered over to the three young girls who had been crushed to their knees, and continued—

In the imperial capital, I bear the infamy for boring loyalty, and here, for the sake of the little girl who is not related to the family...... Ben feels sorry for you. So give you both a chance, Benjue is also a man of great talent, if you are willing to leave the Order and serve Benjue......"

"What are you dreaming about?" Stan blocked back the lord's next words without even thinking about it, he pointed the knight's sword forward, and said fearlessly, "Bastard old man, don't underestimate our 'Legendary Blade', even if you don't rely on the 'Holy Spirit Blessing', your Miscellaneous Fish Guard will not be our opponent!"

That being said, the situation is not encouraging. They may be able to resist a hundred people with all their might, but there will always be a moment when their physical strength is overdrawn, and without the "blessing of the Holy Spirit", it is impossible to be against a thousand people.

"Hmph, I can't figure out the situation......" The lord snorted lightly, and at the same time snatched the long sword from the hand of one of the guards, and leaned the sharp blade against the back of a little girl's neck, "Ben advises you not to act rashly, otherwise this little girl will die." Wait for your head to be killed, Ben Jue doesn't want to lose his troops because of you idiots......"

The girl who was pressed to the neck by the blade of the sword no longer cried, she just lowered her head deeply, probably frightened, and did not dare to move, at this time she could not see her deep expression, only the peach-golden hair fell to the sides, and put on a miserable appearance.

"Despicable villain......!!"

"Mr. Lord, it seems that you are the one who can't figure out the situation. ”

"What ...... you say?"

"You can do it, this kind of blackmail means nothing to me. ”

"Luca!?"

Unlike Stein, who was visibly shaken, Lukka appeared to be calm, and the threat of his lord made him more aggressive.

"Senior, I'm sorry...... There can be no concessions here. Whether we surrender or not, we can't save the girls safely, but if something happens to them, we can do it without fear. Those girls are the daughters of Lutga's predecessors, right? We, the Blade of Legends, have the duty to protect the safety of the nobles of the Empire first, and in extraordinary circumstances, we can cut it first and then play it. So, Mr. Lord, you can give it a try. ”

As for whether the girl's identity is true or not, it is enough as an excuse to fight back, unless the lord voluntarily admits that these young girls are just bait for impostors.

At the same time, as if taking advantage of the victory, Lukka lowered his body, the tip of his greatsword reaching forward, and assumed a posture of preparation.

"Stinky, stinky boy! Don't scare me with this set! Ben, Ben is also a nobleman! You have no right to ......"

"Yes, maybe I don't have the right to sanction your atrocities, but these 'accomplices' around you are different. ”

The coercion of the young knight made the thousands of soldiers present take a few steps back. The terrifying gesture of the firebird coming down was deeply imprinted in their hearts.

"Hmph...... Hmph! Well, even if Ben Jue doesn't do anything to these girls! Without the power of the elves, you are just lambs to be slaughtered! This time you won't be as lucky as a few days ago, and there are more than three times as many magicians around that night, and the strength and range of the enchantment have been strengthened! Even if that alien demon girl appears, it will be difficult to fly!"

In fact, Rathi had flown away that night, and until now the lord thought that her power was also a gift of 'blessing from the Holy Spirit'.

"Haha——! good! Then you can try it!

Even Stein, who has a salted fish head, should always understand Luca's intentions when it comes to this.

After some bluffing, the crisis of several girls was finally temporarily alleviated, and then, there was no need to defeat everyone present, just wait for the opportunity to rescue the girl.

Stan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Sure enough, he is a very smart boy", while showing off his sword style coolly, and exerting an aggressive coercion with Luca.

"Tsk! Don't be afraid, what are you afraid of! There are only two opponents! Give Ben Jue together! Reward ten Imperial Gold Coins for one wounding! Reward one thousand Imperial Gold Coins for slashing one person!"

Under the heavy reward offered by the lord, the mercenaries were the first to move, and to foreigners, the Empire's 'Legendary Blade' was at best a rumor, and not as feared by those soldiers from the Empire.

Seeing this, the other people, the more courageous one, followed one after another, and then a chain reaction was triggered, and everyone rushed to circle and surround the two knights.

The battle is on the verge of breaking out......

But in the end, the battle did not start, because the unthinkable situation happened.

In the corner forgotten by everyone, an innocent voice suddenly sounded-

"This uncle, what you said is true?

"Ahh......h Huh?"

In the middle of his words, the lord finally came to his senses, and realized that the bell-like sound was actually coming from under him. He lowered his head, only to see a small hand tightly gripping the blade of the long sword in his hand, but the sharp blade failed to cut half of the seemingly delicate skin.

The lord subconsciously wanted to pull the sword away with all his might, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move. Then, with a slight twist of the wrist of the little hand, the steel sword was broken like a fragile dead wood.

Then, the little girl with short hair in her shawl stood up and threw the soldiers who bound her behind her to the ground. Before the soldier could get up again, the little girl raised her right leg and kicked him violently in the lower abdomen, even though the soldier was wrapped in armor, he was still taken out of consciousness in an instant.

"Uncle, you are really generous, I said little sister, how much was the GDP of Celia last year?"

"That's about thirty pieces of Imperial Gold. ”

"Hey, isn't it...... It's the same lord, why can it be so bad?"

"Depending on the size of the territory, the tax rate is different. My father's tax is probably the lowest in the country. ”

The short-haired girl was talking cheerfully with another girl with two long pigtails hanging down her head. It can be seen that the soldiers on the other side also fainted on the ground.

"And besides~~ the uncle here is a man who runs the entertainment industry~~ tall and profitable, of course~~"

And over and over again. Even the last girl didn't know when she broke free...... No, the word break free was not accurate for her, because the soldier who was supposed to guard her was dancing like crazy.

In just a blink of an eye, all three girls were free.

"Y-you!who allowed you to break free!Quick, squat back!!"

The lord let out a hysterical but incoherent cry at the incomprehensible status quo.

"Haah...... uncle, I'm not mistaken, I've been doing it for a long time, my father is not here, why do you want to accompany you to play that tiring monkey show......?"

"No, the tiredness is caused by yourself, sister Alice, and the acting skills are too pompous. You should feel the hostage's mood again. ”

"Yes, yes~~ The appearance of crying and grabbing the ground is so pretentious~~ I can't hold back my laughter when I see it~~Ahahahaha~~"

"Annoying, annoying!!!wow-ah-" The short-haired girl named Alice blushed and screamed 'Wow-' amid the laughter of the two girls, trying to force back a wave of rhythm—

"Anyway!!Uncle, don't go back. Except for the two silver knights present, what else does it add up...... It's probably about 1,200 people! A fraction of it will be cheaper for you! Anyway, prepare 12,000 Imperial Gold Coins! Anyway, how can you be considered 'injured'? Is it enough to break a few bones per person?"
