The Knight Eldania S2
36: Eldania

“ Wah... “ One pair of eyes after another pair of eyes instantly stare at the amazement of someone who is walking alone.

“ Who is he?“ whisper the first.

“ I feel familiar with his face..., he looks like-” His gaze is not transferable on one man walking past him.

“ Arga! “ until finally there was one person who shouted loudly while calling his name.

This man ran over and approached Arga with a face of sumringah. He was finally able to find the person he had accidentally seen, was walking alone while attracting the attention of many people.

“ Wah..wah...wah.., who is this? Arga...you cut your hair? “ asked, while embracing Arga's neck, so that Arga slightly lowered his head and showed the haircut that Arga already had. 

“ Remove. “ ketus Arga, while trying to release the embrace of the hand on his shoulder.

“ No....I will not take it off, until....” Deliberately pulling back Arga's neck, the man deliberately let Arga down and then whispered something. “ You said, who cut your hair. You see, I feel a little other scent from your body. It's a little faint, but honestly there's the scent of a new young girl with you. So predictably, the one who cut your hair must be a woman. Right?. “ terka this man, while sniffing the hair and some parts on Arga's face, as if he did feel the aroma that he just said, the scent of ‘Young’ girl.

“............." Arga was speechless, he was completely reluctant to answer that question. [He wasn't guessing, but he did see me being alone with that woman right?] Arga. [Despite his past that has deceived many people with his looks, I thank him for this. ] 

The person who initially looked cold, was also a tomboy?

Yep..Arga had seen Eldania several times while living his daily life as a man who worked in the armory.

Every day is surrounded by men.

Although there are slight differences, but there are also similarities, where now Arga again sees the child who has not even twenty years of working in the knight army.

[Is he intentionally?] Arga silently walked over to the man who was standing on the wall and stared at him while propping up his chin. 

That smile that from the beginning had never existed was a flat expression that looked as if it was looking at something.

".................!" Arga immediately changed his expression when he found out the woman he had just met with his new identity under the name Eldania, suddenly brandishing a weapon at him.

" Come..say, who takes care of this hair of yours. "this man stays with his pretentious behavior with Arga. " Looking at the new appearance of your hair, I wanted to cut it too. "

Arga did not hear what the person next to him was saying, because it was focused on one person standing on the wall.

" Arga...Where are you looking?" curious because Arga did not respond to his question from now on, this man also sought the source of Arga's gaze to where. " He's ka-.... "

DORR…….

".............! " The blood immediately splashed half of Arga's face which immediately pegged on the spot.

The not so loud voice earlier, was proof that Eldania had just performed one act that shocked Arga. 

The red blood that had already stained half of his right face, was the blood of his…..

BRUKK…..

" Yeah! " some of the women who were eyewitnesses shouted hysterically after seeing the friend who was embracing the shoulder of the Arga knight suddenly collapsed with blood flowing from his neck.

[That woman didn't shoot me, but her? ] Arga glanced at his co-worker who was already lying on the ground.

Just above the defensive wall, where the suspect is still silent without feeling any guilt.

Evan, who had unintentionally seen the incident, immediately ran to where Eldania was and said in a slightly high tone. " What have you done! " 

Evan catches the hand that still holds the strange weapon in Dania's hand.

" Isn't my job here, is to help you? " he said, his face did not turn to the person he had just targeted. 

The sight of the person who was seen had often killed, was clearly visible in Evan's eyes.

" But you just killed one of the knights here, what helped?!" Evan again warns and while trying to pick up a strange weapon held by Eldania, the woman immediately avoids Evan's tag movement.

" It should have been understood by Sir Evan. Or because there is no case here….? " Eldania deliberately hung up her sentence, she turned to the right side and looked into Evan's eyes with a cold look. " A case where Fallen disguised as a human? " sow, tilting his head to the right.

" What!? Is there anything like that? “ 

Eldnia looked back to the front, and added. " I did not kill him, but only scratched his neck with my bullet. Objects embedded with holy power will make him show his true figure. So....look at it first until it runs out. " explains Eldania.

Evan initially hesitates, but he eventually obeys his words, and waits for his reaction.

Curious, angry, two interlocking emotions were present in everyone who was gathered swarming over the man who was lying down shot.

Dozens of people flocked to go see the perpetrator who they clearly saw was the woman next to Knight Evan. The rest tried to pick up the dying man.

But not long after, change came.

The human skin that was originally attached to his body, instantly disappeared and turned a red color. His physical body turned huge, and his fiery red eyes became a marker of this figure already fully conscious of being….

" Ahh.....my disguise was exposed. “ while wiping the blood coming out of the injured skin of his neck, this Fallen immediately looked at the cruel Eldania who was still standing on the wall.

Everyone ran away first.

" How can it be? " Evan did not budge from his place, because he had to let his men overcome their own problems that were in sight at that time.

" I've experienced it once. " Eldania did not help either, for her part in bringing them all to life was done.

Although it initially looks suspicious because it suddenly shot people as if Dania was the one who had just killed indiscriminately.

Evan was silent for a moment to listen to his further explanation.

" Because I did it spontaneously. So, I got two options from their point of view. First I will be seen as the cause of the knight turning into Fallen, or becoming their savior because it makes them realize that he is a hiding enemy.

Evan could not speak anymore, what was on his mind had already been spoken by the lady herself.

Eldania purposely releases his ammo, and gives Evan a bullet.

PRONOUN…..

After that, he put it up again.

" It… " 

Evan took one bullet. [What's true.., this bullet.I feel a holy power in it. ]Evan frowned, he felt the same holy energy as the energy released by the grand priest.

Because Evan had been treated for a year by the high priest, or rather saintess, so he had memorized what his energy was like, or rather, what kind of saint, and it was just like what he was feeling right now, from a small object the tip of his little finger.

VUSH…….

The wind came back at them. Evan could not remember having seen that expression from this girl?

The expression of such a new person makes a big mistake. A faint smile filled with regret, that was what flashed before his eyes.

Whatisit?

" This incident will make them more alert to their own friends. Or watch out for me?" eldania said before turning around, leaving Evan from there.

[Ah...it was like an expression, someone who lost the trust of others. ]Evan instantly regained consciousness just before Dania jumped behind the wall.

When on one side Evan saw the sight of the knights who were struggling to dispel Fallen who would act more destructive, on the other hand the woman he greeted Miss Eld, on the other hand, it was actually fighting with other mercenaries against the monsters that came.

"................" Evan was silent. [What is he really thinking?]

____________

Kuus..~...Kuus..~....

Kwak..The kwak!

" This is my place, get out of the way! " Everst immediately used her feet to remove the gray owl from her seat.

The seat is most comfortable and soft, unfortunately there is only one seat. It was hers, but after being left for a moment, the place was already overrun by this owl.

Kuus..~?

" Isn't the place big?" said this owl, even though it had been expelled, his legs went back to where he had been sitting.

Kwak….!.

" There's no broad word for me. This one place is just for me. " Everst kicked the owl back to get out of there.

Everst, increasingly irritated at the sight of the owl approaching her pillow for the third time, directly hit her by gripping her two wings, then one of Everst's wings was pointed in front of the face of a bird smaller than her.

The tip of his wing feather had already turned into half a sharp sword that was ready to cut the owl's neck.

Kwak….Kwak….Kwak……

Kuu…..

Everst expressed her sense of protest while giving her threat.

Until finally, the debate between the two birds became a trigger for someone who was patrolling in front of the tent that was occupied by Dania, began to be peppered with curiosity.

[Why does it sound so noisy in there?] this man's inner.

Suspicious of the noise coming from inside the tent, the knight walked in, knowing that the owner was out.

Kwaks…..Kwaks…..

Kuu…!

When his right hand pulled out one of the curtain of the tent door, in that second also the gap that had been made by this knight immediately became the exit of a small sword.

SHUHT….

“ Hah!. “ This knight instantly widened his eyes, and managed to pull over in time before the sharp object was lodged in his head.

Until in the next second, the weapon finally stuck into the tree trunk in front there.

JLEBBA…..

“ A-Is there an intruder?“ this knight tried to guess who, and when rushing into the tent with his right hand already prepared with his sword, he was immediately treated by..

KWAKK..!

Two birds were flying in the tent. They are both chasing each other.

VUSH…..

“.................!“ This knight immediately lowered his head as the two birds darted swiftly right past the top of his head.

Kwak…!

“ Get out of here. “ tries to drive out the owl he is chasing. 

Kuu...~.

[What the hell is going on here? Where did these two birds come from? Then that little sword, who threw it if there were only two birds?] Regardless of the barrage of questions inside his head, all he had to do right now was at least stop the two birds from doing the mess. 

How-to?

Of course chasing them, and inevitably he used his sword to break up the fight between the two of them.

“ Go!. “ His sword he swings upward, from right then to left. 

Everst who was disturbed by the existence of humans with her sword that was fluttered into the sky, finally made her intervene on her own. 

Everst who had originally flown over, suddenly directly swooped down sharply, and precisely flew darting towards the knight.

The kwak..!

“ What?! “ Not only that as well, this man was surprised because in addition to the eagle that flew directly towards him, it also turned out to have the ability to fly five small sharp swords, darting along with him.

CTHANG….CTHANG….CTHANG……

The knight instantly dispelled the rain of the five weapons with his sword. 

[He was.not an ordinary bird.] What came to his mind, was to catch the bird that had just attacked him. [Since there is a possibility that this bird is a spy, I will have to catch it, no matter what. ] 

And therefore, now Everst also accidentally managed to invite suspicious knights in front of him, and make him a fugitive at that time.

The afternoon sky is back.

The north wind, making the temperature even colder, did not make this black-robed magician disturbed by that cold temperature, because the robe he wore contained magic capable of adjusting the temperature of the wearer. 

This guy is standing on the wall. And today was his last day working as a witch in Helion, because his contract was done. 

He looked at the orange-colored twilight sky. 

But is that what Terrian is looking at?.

CTANGS……..CTANGS……..CTHANG…

Far ahead, he was looking at one of the people who was the center of his attention.

“ Isn't he very hard working?“ The question, which contained Irine's greeting to Terrian, immediately broke the silence between them. “ It's all for the money. “ Tell him again. 

“ …………….. “ However Terrian was silent while continuing to pensively.

Irine continued to say her words, although not responded by this man. 

“ Though he had a gun, that way he did not have to bother to throw his power like that right?“ said Irine again.

But this time, it made Terrian finally speak up. “ He did this job, not just for money, but to improve his fighting skills. “ Tell Terrian.

Is correct……

Coincidentally, being able to work within a defense squad against monsters was one of the best ways to increase his experience in the battlefield. 

The goal, in addition to getting money, Eldania also had the intention to train again his martial arts. 

And the cause was because the next goal after this was to the Academy Clenon.

[So, once a paddle, the two islands are surpassed. ] thought Eldania. 

In a single slash, he managed to cut off the monster's head so easily. 

CRASCH…….

“ Hahh 

Dozens of monsters made it on this girl's clean broom. Since most of the mercenaries kept losing quickly cleared up the monsters that fought back.

Eldania now swung her sword in one shake, and made the blood of the monster that smeared his sword, instantly swept away.

“ Can kill at will like this, it turns out to be fun too. “ said Eldania with a smile that is growing.

Without guilt, killing the creature that must be killed, successfully making his mood can be quite happy.

And the reason is pretty simple. 

What he killed was not human. Except, it was a monster.

Then from that. The sense of regret that usually comes at the end, is not felt by Eldania who incidentally is a person who is accustomed to killing.

And one more thing.

Something that does not make him regret even if he is forced to kill humans is, if what he faces is to fight crime. 

Because in this world….

In the life that Eldania has lived all this time, he has a saying. That….

' There are diseases that cannot be treated without murder. '

And that's a crime.
