The Demon Queen's Disciple
Chapter 47 - The Truth

In an instant, the movements from that Hobgoblin changed completely.

Starting from the speed, power, and magic used. Everything completely changed beyond everyone's expectations.

Including Carmilla herself.

'Zraaaatt! Zraaaassshhhh!!!'

With such incredible speed, the Hobgoblin jumped forward while swinging his right hand.

Beheading Drakon who was standing right in front of him.

Time seemed so slow as Carmilla looked at the scene.

Just like when Lucius felt the fear and anger of Carmilla, at this time Carmilla also felt immense sadness and anger from Lucius.

One second feels like hours.

The look in his eyes seemed irreversible from the now lifeless figure of Drakon.

Slowly, his body fell to the ground with blood pouring down from his neck.

"Curtain! Goblin...."

Ironclad had not had time to vent all his anger, his neck had been cut off by Hobgoblin's sharp fingernails.

Any more....

Carmilla felt it once again.

A very strong emotion from Lucius' soul.

That's anger.

Just like Drakon, Lucius' body froze when he saw the figure of Ironclad who had just been with him.... Now it is lifeless.

His head was still circling in the air. Little by little, they began to fall back to the ground.

'Braaakk! Oruuugg!'

Whether by chance or not, the severed head of Ironclad stopped right as it led to Lucius's figure.

Giving a look that seemed full of regret.

"Weak! Weak!! So weak! Man!!" the Hobgoblin shouted as he continued his slaughter.

Not a single adventurer was able to keep up with his speed.

One....

Some of them are trying to fight. But their weapons were simply destroyed in the face of the monster's absolute strength.

And the others?

They had not even had the time to react at all. But without realizing it, their heads had floated in the air.

A death so short....

Also so pathetic.

Their lives were for decades, training their techniques and magic from the first time they raised a sword.

But all of that seemed useless in the face of this monster.

Until finally, all the emotions of Lucius' soul seemed to explode. There was nothing left for Carmilla to feel.

It all happened after Carmilla turned her face, saw the Hobgoblin figure pull out her right hand on a woman.

The woman who was none other, was Sera herself. He seemed to be spewing a lot of blood from his mouth. Accompanied by the look of his eyes that began to fade.

Around him, dozens of bodies of adventurers from the archer squad lay helpless.

Most of them have lost their heads. While others have limbs or their bodies destroyed.

Wh why?

How can it be that strong?

How could such a lowly monster, be able to possess such a great Mana demon nation?

Those questions constantly flashed through Carmilla's head at this moment, with her body still silent in place while looking at all that madness.

Afraid?

Sure oes.

Right now, with his completely untalented borrowed body, Carmilla was already heavily outnumbered in Mana numbers.

The difference is so great that the technique and knowledge alone are not enough to close the difference.

Physical strength?

As a race of monsters, they were always superior to humans in terms of physical abilities. What's more, Lucius' body had just started intensive physical exercise these few months.

Rivaling them is impossible.

Then what can he do?

'If only my real body were here....'

Only that sentence crossed Carmilla's mind.

But reality?

His body is gone. Thrown out by his own hand for survival.

'Aahs.... If you recall, didn't I run away then too?' thought Carmilla in her heart while looking at that Hobgoblin figure slaughtering the rest of the adventurers that were around her.

Carmilla raised Lucius' reddish sword. Directing it right in front of his face, noticed the blade of the sword that was still very sharp.

Until finally....

"Sorry, Lucius. I think this is the only way" said Carmilla, now giving a sharp look at Hobgoblin.

"Hoo, are you still there? Scared to be unable to move?" asked Hobgoblin haughtily.

Carmilla was silent. He did not use magic at all either on his sword or for assault.

It was because of the nearly a quarter of Mana he had, all of them were deployed to strengthen his physique.

Overflows.

'Blaaaaarrr!!!'

With a powerful footstroke, Carmilla darted right at the Hobgoblin. Swinging his sword with all his might.

'BRAAAAAAAAAA!!! ZRAAAASS!!!'

His sword swing was successfully repelled easily by the Hobgoblin with his Trias Shield magic.

But nevertheless....

'Kretha!!'

The sound of cracks could be heard from the direction of the magic shield. Not only that, Lucius's sword strike made several trees fall.

Even the pounding from Carmilla's sword collision with the Hobgoblin's Triassic Shield was able to be heard up to the rear of the adventurer squad.

"This tremor.... Lucius? Hey, Lyra! Could it be faster?!" ask Selena to panic.

"A little while more!" reply Lyra panicked who still continued to draw strange magic formations with her magic on that piece of sword blade.

'What the fuck? Lucius? Who the hell are you? How do you know ancient magic like this?!' thought Lyra in her heart.

On the other hand, Carmilla was still facing off against that Hobgoblin.

If from the eyes of an ordinary person, the fight between the two seemed to be balanced. With Carmilla continuing to give attacks and Hobgoblins that can only survive.

Little by little, Hobgoblin's Trias Shield began to crack and break. Force it to create new ones and drain a lot of Mana.

But in reality, the fight between the two was completely unbalanced.

'Zraaat!'

With a quick swing of his hand, the Hobgoblins were able to cut Lucius' left hand in an instant.

Carmilla who received the attack immediately jumped back while throwing her sword into the air. Allows his right hand to capture a piece of his left hand.

Without hesitation, Carmilla immediately reattached the piece of her left hand to her arm.

Such a bright greenish light can be seen. And in an instant, Lucius' arm was successfully healed and re-united.

At the same time, his sword that was thrown into the air earlier had returned. Carmilla caught him quickly before returning to attack.

'Oh klaangg!! Ohhhhhai!!!'

The laughter and smiles from Hobgoblins began to fade. Little by little.

He did not understand how humans who had been so weak, had now become so strong like this.

In exchange for her defeat in terms of magic power, Carmilla placed all her bets on her physical strength that had been enhanced with Overflow.

And as a result, Carmilla can match that Hobgoblin a little. Lucius' physical strength was currently equivalent to one-third of Hobgoblin's physical strength.

"Fuckin' man.... Why don't you want to die?"

Carmilla was silent. Accelerating the barrage of his sword slashes.

With techniques and skills that have been lost to the times, Carmilla shows that the right techniques are even able to shorten the distance between their strengths.

'Klaaaaang!! Krettafay!!!'

Less than a minute later, what Carmilla was waiting for finally arrived.

From a distance, the cry of a woman he recognized could be heard so clearly.

"LUCIUS!!! ACCEPT THIS!!!"

With a faint smile, Carmilla immediately jumped back while kicking her opponent. Stay away from that Hobgoblin while making a considerable distance between the two.

'Swuuushh!!!'

From Selena's right hand, there was an ordinary sword blade. But on it, it had engraved the ancient magic formation required by Carmilla.

'Tapp!!!'

Carmilla immediately caught him with her left hand, then looked at the Hobgoblin figure confidently.

"Listen to me, nameless devil! With this, I'll kill you!" carmilla said as she showed the piece of the sword blade.
