Chapter 52: Confused Little Lori
[I'm ...... Shivering?γ
Casadra was surprised to find that her body was trembling, as if she was instinctively afraid of something.
[I...... Afraid of that imposter?]
The priestess knew very well that the source of her fear was the girl on the other side who was almost identical to herself.
Why...... Why ......]
She kept asking herself in her mind.
Then, a flower caught her eye.
It was Valoret, a flower born of chaos that would bloom in this camp at some point.
Then Casadra understood that the reason why she was afraid was because the temperament of the girl standing in Valoret in front of her was too much like Yuhime.
"How is that possible...... How can it be**....... It's just an impostor...... Counterfeit ......"
Unwilling feelings spread in her heart, she gritted her teeth and stared at the girl opposite viciously.
"Tear them up for me! Chimera-!!"
At the sound of an order, the strange beasts swarmed up, and the terrible slaughter was about to begin.
"Lord Leah, please use the power of the chant to lead us to victory!"
Looking at the approaching Chimera, Alec clenched the sword in his hand.
At this time, he was full of confidence, as long as he escaped the suppression of chaos with the help of singing, the enemy in front of him was not invincible.
[It's time to sanction them!]
The knight's heart is filled with the belief of victory!
"What is that?"
Then, it was quickly shattered by a certain Lori tilting her little head with a natural look.
"What's that!? It's a song. Leah-sama's singing!
We need that strength to fight the Chimera!"
The Chaos Beast was so close that Alec was almost going mad.
"Not at all understood, but. Alec wants to defeat the Chimera. β
Little Lori first tilted her little head, and then nodded seriously.
Then she turned and stretched out her hand to the attacking beast, and in her hand was a small flower, as clear as a blue glass handicraft.
The moment she saw the flower, Casadra's eyes that could see through the future reflected her own death.
"Ankati !!"
Facing the fear of a mortal future and the instinct for survival, she stretched out her Chaos Wings and embraced herself and the Simoyah warriors. Then the space was shattered, and he fled the camp without looking back.
At the same time, Leah's lips lightly opened. Said softly:
"Scatter it. β
So, the little flower drifted away, and the crystal petals flew in the air, reflecting the moonlight. It looks so beautiful.
However, it is too late to indulge in it. Beauty turns to death.
In the Sumeru room, every petal blooms with dazzling brilliance in an instant!
When the light subsided, an unbelievable scene appeared in the knight's eyes.
The ground was covered with marks that looked like huge blades, and each alien beast was neatly cut into countless pieces of flesh.
The qiΔ in front of him seemed to have entered a slaughterhouse, and the chimera, who had been slaughtering the knights like pigs and sheep, was slaughtered like a pig and sheep in front of the small flower.
"Hair ...... What's going on......"
Alec stared at Leah blankly.
A certain Lori, who has always stood at the back of the battlefield to buff everyone, suddenly killed all the enemies in seconds for some reason. This strong contrast made everyone present a little trance, as if in a dream. It's full of unreality.
"Mistress Leah...... Are you alright, Mistress Leah!?"
The head maid rushed forward, hugged little Lori in her arms and said.
"Woo......"
A certain Lori tilted her head in a daze, as if she couldn't figure out why the other party was so excited.
"Lord Leah, is your body okay anymore?"
Subsequently, Alec also walked over.
"Body?"
So a certain Lori's head was tilted from the left to the right.
The knight sadly confirmed one thing, and Leah did not fully recover, rather, the injury went in a more strange direction.
However......
"Lord Leah, I know this is reluctant, but please go to the Elven Forest to support everyone immediately! Without your help, Lord Karen will not be able to deal with those druids!"
Looking at Leah's clear, but obviously lacking aura, Alec knelt on one knee and said in a pleading tone. The knight knew that despite Kalian's martial arts, they would all have to rely on Leah in the face of the power of Chaos.
"I don't really understand it, but if Sister Karen is in danger, leave it to me. β
Little Lori still repeated Alec's words in a stunned, as if she hadn't woken up.
"Rebecca, you take Leah-sama, and we're going!"
"Yes!"
Although she was very worried about Leah's current state, Rebecca was still clear about taking care of Leah and Kalian's side, so she ......
"It's rude......"
The head maid picked up the still dazed little Lori, turned on her horse and rushed out of the camp with the knights, heading for the depths of the forest.
Along the way, everyone was silent for a long time, only the sound of horses' hooves broke through the night.
"How's Lord Leah?"
Alec asked, looking back at Rebecca.
"The wound has healed completely, but consciousness seems to be somewhat unclear, and now ...... Fell asleep. β
Rebecca looked at Leah, who was curled up in her arms, her eyes sweetly closed, and said with both relief and worry.
"Really......"
Alec sighed, he knew that the head maid was relieved that the knife wound on the other party's body had completely healed, but he was worried about how long the confusion would last.
In the midst of this tangled feeling, the forest was burning with fire, screams, corpses, and retreating elves and knights appeared in front of everyone.
"Kalian-sama!! I brought Leah-sama !!"
Alec came to the countess and dismounted.
"Leah, she's awake!?"
Karen was surprised and delighted when she heard the news, and the current situation was basically not much different from defeat and escape. But if little Lori's singing voice joins, then you can fight back!
"Yes, Mistress Leah woke up, it's just ......"
"Just?"
"She seems to be a little unconscious......"
Grief welled up on Alec's face.
"Where is she!? Let me see her !!"
Hearing the knight's report, the heart that had been beating sank again, and the countess looked anxiously, trying to find Leah's figure.
"Rebecca!"
So Alec motioned for the head maid to come over.
"That...... That one...... Mistress Leah, she ...... She's goneβ!!"
However, the head maid turned pale, because the sweet little Lori who was sleeping in her arms disappeared quietly at some point.
In the face of this huge shock, everyone was stunned.
Before the countess could say anything, there was a sudden silence on the battlefield.
As if something stood in the center of the battlefield and exuded a great force that could not be ignored, the people stopped fighting and turned their heads in unison.
"That's!?"
Karen's eyes were met by an unbelievable scene - a petite girl appeared in the very center of the battlefield at some point, in the midst of the raging fire, ignoring the corpses beside her, rubbing her eyes as if she had just woken up, and then looked around in confusion with lifeless eyes.
"Li...... Leah ......"
Facing the girl, Karen muttered the name that she was familiar with, but now seemed so unfamiliar. (To be continued......)
