Without warning, a swift and decisive blow. But Sophia didn't show the slightest surprise and impatience about this, but showed a shallow smile from the corner of her mouth.

If it were the former 'man in black', he might not have shown any emotion for this.

"It's good, as soon as you decide that the other party is an enemy, you will immediately take the preemptive attack, or I will do the same. The timing of the raid was just right, and the action was not superfluous...... Well, ninety points. The fly in the ointment is—"

Feeling a little intimate, Sophia gave an unprecedentedly high evaluation, she swung her war knife hard, pushed away the opponent in the air, and at the same time raised her gun to shoot, "You are off the ground." ”

In mid-air, there should have been no room to dodge, but the opponent unbelievably twisted his body out of thin air, forcibly adjusting his out-of-control posture, and the magic bullet failed to hit directly, only gently brushed the armor on his waist.

"The so-called close combat, you have to lower your body. ”

Sophia bent down and took a step closer almost to the ground, her battle knife attacking like a viper.

"Keep the movements to a minimum, and the attacks should be sharp, fast, and straight to the point. ”

She showed what she was saying, and the hands and feet of the two of them were attacking and defending at a speed that was difficult for the eyes to catch.

The only thing that can be seen is that Sophia has the upper hand, and every simple move forces the opponent to retreat. Finally, the petite soldier jumped back sharply, pulling away sharply.

This time, Sophia didn't pursue, she straightened up and cast a nonchaser at her opponent.

In Sophia's eyes, the other party's experience is still insufficient, and there are rash parts in his actions, but it cannot be denied that he has excellent talent, as if he has seen his former self.

No, it's different from who you used to be. Although it is quiet on the surface, the intense emotions on the inside are clearly visible.

Maybe it was because he was full of confidence in himself, so because of the unilateral defeat, he ignited a raging anger. Still too young, the biggest weakness of such a child is that he cannot control his emotions in the face of adversity.

In battle, any intense feelings are negative and dull judgment and monotonous actions.

Perhaps emotional excitement will promote the secretion of some hormones in the body, improve muscle strength and exercise capacity in a short time, but at the same time put the corresponding burden on the body, and waste unnecessary physical strength.

"Don't overthink it, take a deep breath. Leave behind all your useless thoughts about your self-esteem, your reserve, your purpose, and your reasons, and all you can think about now is how to calmly defeat your opponent. ”

In fact, Sophia was not obliged to tirelessly teach the enemy. It seems that it is the life of an instructor in recent days that has made her develop a didactic habit of criticizing her shortcomings in battle.

"Tsk......"

The opponent smacked his tongue and carefully squatted down, as if he was accumulating some strength. Suddenly, her figure flickered, and in the blink of an eye, she circled behind Sophia—

A sharp gust of wind swept across Sophia's cheeks, cutting off the thick trees diagonally behind her. It wasn't some kind of magic, it just flew through with explosive speed, cutting down the tree.

The trunk of the tree slid slowly down the smooth cut before collapsing with a thud, separating Sophia from Alize behind her.

At the same time, the aura that was originally hidden in the forest began to act together, and they did not rush towards Sophia, but went straight to the rear of Eliezer and the orc brothers and sisters.

The soldiers did not move as fast as their leader, but they were still as swift as beasts, and it only took a few seconds to encircle Eliezer tightly.

Taking advantage of the advantage of speed, skillfully bypassing the enemy's main forces, and quickly controlling the hostages in the rear can be called a strategy of reversal.

"Now that the winner is decided, surrender quickly, or I won't guarantee the lives of a few of them. ”

It was the first time I heard the words of a silver-haired girl, and it was unexpectedly light.

However, the voice of a girl of this age is generally like melting honey, and no matter how hard she tries to show a threatening tone, her voice is still sweet and moving.

"Surrender? ”

"Don't you want your friend to live......

"No, Sister Alize is my most cherished relative. And the orc brothers and sisters are also my important assets from today onwards. I would say that your tactical judgment is very good and your men are excellent. It's a pity that the estimate of combat power is too hasty. ”

"What do you mean......

"To put it simply, I'm more worried about your men than my sister. ”

As if to verify Sophia's words, a loud popping sound erupted from the opposite side of the fallen tree trunk, and at the same time, the men scattered in a scream of "whoa-whoa-".

“...... Elemental magic!?"

Unbelievably unbelievable, the silver-haired girl was not surprised by the magic itself.

Elemental magic is nothing more than a commonplace. She just couldn't figure out why her men were so easily knocked away by magic.

As top adventurers and mercenaries, they are all battle-hardened warriors and have a wealth of experience in fighting mages. Everyone was sure that a magician within twenty meters would not be able to chant a single incantation.

A soldier was catapulted to the girl's feet, and he struggled on the ground to squeeze out his voice—

"Less, young master, run, that girl is a monster...... When you cast a spell...... There was no chanting at all!"

"Hey, you're all right......"

"You should worry more about yourself than your men. ”

Bang –

The gunshot rang out, and the silver-haired girl dodged quickly.

Bang - bang - bang -

The ensuing gunshots all missed.

Because she moved much faster than a projectile, and the forest was full of obstacles, as long as she kept running, the pitch-black magic bullet would not hit—she was so sure.

Bang - bang - bang - bang -

But despite this, the opponent did not stop shooting, and the unsettling gunfire continued to ring out.

By now, the silver-haired girl had no choice but to kill her opponent with all her might, or else those injured companions would die.

The other party is a human, and he is an orc, even among the orcs, he has top athleticism and smell.

Although it is enough to see from the simple confrontation before, the opponent's technology is far superior to his own, but fortunately, he still has the advantage of speed, but speed is a realm that is absolutely impossible for human beings to achieve.

In the rough woodland, she sped up as if she were walking on the ground—accelerated—accelerated and accelerated—

- Got it!

After a few laps, the silver-haired girl circled perfectly to Sophia's flank, and with a wave of her hand, she flew her head away, sweeping its steel-forged claws towards the white head and neck.

But this all-out killing blow was leaned on by Sophia and dodged it lightly.

- It's not over yet!

Convinced that he still had the advantage in speed, he was about to repeat his old trick - a sharp pain, and a violent impact came from his flank, causing the silver-haired girl to spit blood.

At the moment when she brought her body to a standstill in order to attack, the magic bullets that had been shot in the air before actually made all kinds of surprising curves in mid-air, as if they had eyes, and they bit towards the girl's body.

Baptized by the rain of bullets pouring down - half of the silver-haired girl's armor was shattered, leaving bright red burns on her exposed skin, and she barely managed to stand up.

She grew her mouth and breathed air rapidly, while her mouth and teeth were soaked with blood.

"Oh...... You can still move. It seems that except for the first shot, none of them hit directly. To be able to dodge a direct hit with that kind of posture is amazing, ninety-five points. ”

The girl had no idea that the projectiles would bite at her like a poisonous snake, and now she realized her defeat.

- If, from the beginning, you could use your superior speed to launch a surprise attack......!

The helmet had been shattered, and a look of remorse came from the beautiful amber cat eyes.

"Huh...... You're probably thinking that it would be nice if you could sneak up on me at full speed from the start...... Isn't that right?"

“......”

"That's not bad, but it's still a fatal mistake...... When did you get the illusion that I would be slower than you......?"

As soon as the words fell, Sophia gently floated her right hand on the hilt of the knife behind her back, her figure only fainted for a moment, and then- all the trees within at least thirty meters of the surrounding area were cut off.

What was once a dense rainforest has become bare.

“！？”

"Just like that, you're really fast, but don't put too much faith in your strengths. ”

The silver-haired cat-eyed girl couldn't believe what she was witnessing.

Is this a sight that human speed can make? Does it make me believe that there is such a terrible monster in this world?

Dead-hearted, afraid......

She had forgotten how many years she hadn't been so scared.

You must know that he is the captain of the Gray Beast Regiment, and he is always engaged in the battlefield of flesh and blood, and he is originally aware of death. But now, in the face of a truly unreasonable monster, she still can't help but tremble.

Next, there is no doubt that she will kill herself, killing all the subordinates present, like the "Grim Reaper" who harvests life.

However, she did not wait for the blade of life to be harvested, and Sophia gently tucked the pistol and battle knife back into her holster, and turned away without looking back.

"Whew...... Sister, all the test items have been completed. I'm almost at the bottom of my mana drain...... Let's go home, it's dinner time. ”

"Well~~Go home~~But little sister~~ Just pick up small animals and go home, Hilda will be unhappy~~......?

"Don't worry, I'll convince Hilda. Unlike my sister, I am strictly responsible for my pets, and I have experience in domesticating hunting dogs and police dogs, and I have a wealth of experience in animal feed preparation, hair arrangement, and excrement treatment......"

"So, Miss Sophia...... Please don't hold it so tightly...... Woohoo......"

"The body is too weak Cam, this kind of physique can't survive in the cruel environment of Celia...... From today onwards, I will tame you well and give me enlightenment......"

The girl stared blankly at the dark back, and could only hear the words that were drifting away.

In this way, the "Grim Reaper" let himself go.
