Chapter 27: The Valkyrie
Alucard and Floid finally turned the carriage around and started moving towards the place where they felt the pressure coming from.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the large city where the Grand Hotel was located, a swordswoman was trekking through the empty streets with a cigar in her mouth. She wore brown leather pants and had her black hair cut into a short bob cut that framed her face on both sides and made her look exotically beautiful! Her breast size was a decent 30C and she had a killer body packed with muscles in all the right places for women. Today, she was hunting!
Ever since two days ago, there has been news of a suspicious woman that keeps on stalking these streets at night. The residents of this area were all rich snobs so they don't usually like it when they see people they don't recognize on their streets. The reason she even bothered to come here was only that there was also news that the succubus, Lilith was last seen moving in this direction. They say that there is no such thing as a coincidence and this woman lived by that code righteously. Well, there was also the fact that these rich snobs were paying top money for it. Just get rid of a single potential demon, get a lot of money, and everyone will be happy!
Even if it isn't a demon it will still be good money to just kill whoever it is and collect the reward for it. Not like anyone can do anything to me even if I did.
The name of the woman was Valkyrie. She was the Japanese swordswoman that accompanied the hero on his journey around the world to vanquish the demon lord a hundred years ago! Now I know what you're thinking! How did the famous hero 'Valkyrie' become a common sword for hire! Well, the simple truth will be that Valkyrie was terrible at handling money and she somehow managed to not only waste all of the reward money for helping the hero in the last hundred years, she even ended up putting herself in debt!
But the more complex truth will be that Valkyrie was just the sort of person that enjoyed things like this. She enjoyed the thrill of battle and also the pounding of blood in her veins as her sword clashes against another person's sword! She couldn't ever go and live a peaceful life. Why should she just settle down like that? It just doesn't feel right to settle down and have kids! I'll make a terrible mother anyways!!
But that was a story to another day. Today, Valkyrie was looking for any signs that the succubus was anywhere around here and she just found one. There was a trail leading down an alleyway. Valkyrie looked to the side and sniffed the air. Then sent of demons was something that Valkyrie could easily notice! She was like a bloodhound when it came to finding demons and that is why she was so useful to the hero a long time ago! Too bad he was dead now. She would have liked to fuck him even once. He was quite handsome after allNew novel chapters are published on
Valkyrie caught a whiff of the scent and quickly grinned as she shot off the ground and blasted into the air! A single leap from her sent her as far as two hundred meters into the air! And before long, Valkyrie saw someone that was stalking the streets alone. Well, hello there, demon. It's a pleasure to kill you!

Lilit didn't even see it! One moment she was thinking about how she will run away, and in the next moment, Valkyrie has already drawn her swords and she was already right in Liliiths face! Lilith used all of her strength to dodge to the left as the sharp katana sliced through the spot her neck had just been! She jumped back and she was about to activate an attack spell but she cursed and stopped herself! It would be useless!
"Ooh, come on! Don't give up like that!! Activate the spell! I might actually have a challenge if you use something really strong!!"
Lilith grit her teeth with a growl! She knew that it would be useless! Everyone knew what this woman's power is the ability to absorb attacks and use them to make herself even stronger! Valkyrie was the sort of person that you never want to get into a fist fight with. She will kill you even if you use the strongest skills in your arsenal. It also helped that she was strong even if you don't use any skills to attack her. So before you can even start attacking, it's likely she would have already killed you!
Once, Valkyrie got into a bar fight with a hundred other people. It was something that shouldn't have been a challenge for the others since most of them were knights. But she beat them. She beat the living shit out of each and every single one of them! As the fight went on she just grew stronger and stronger till she ended up breaking bones with one hit! Due to that, she was banned from every bar in all three kingdoms for ten years!
Valkyrie smiled at Lilith and she flicked her sword to the side. There was a light shining down on top of the two of them and it reflected off the blade and got into Lilith's eyes. Once Lilith grimaced, Valkyrie shot off the ground again.
p<anda> She jabbed her sword straight for Lilith's midsection! A clean-cut that would end up with Lilith bleeding to the ground and dying in less than a minute. But Lilith managed to use defensive magic and the sword made a 'clang!' sound as it slid off Lilith's body! Valkyrie didn't let that stop her though! She continued pressing the attack!</anda>
Lilith tried her best to dodge most of them and she almost succeeded! This defensive magic she used was called [Physical Rebuff]. It was a skill that would deflect physical attacks from any weapon. But a skill like this would not be enough to stop Valkyrie for long. Lilith could already feel Valkyrie getting stronger with every single swing that she deflected. Valkyries hands were taking the damage from the deflection, and even if it was a little, the damage was compounding and increasing Valkyries strength!
