224 Episode 18 For the Valued ③

SIDE: Bell

The magic that only I can use in this world... beast magic.

This magic, which can only be used on the royal family of the Wesen, strengthens the body in different ways than the unattributed magic and electric magic of the same body strengthening system.

The closer you get to the Beast, the stronger your Defense, Attack, and Speed are, the more powerful you gain.

If I really use beast magic, I can be a big wolf... but I don't want to be that much.

I'm very worried that I won't be able to return to people like this...

I want to be the same person as Leo. I want Leo to look at me as a person.

From that feeling, I never looked like a beast in front of Leo.

I was now in the shape of a werewolf in front of Leo.

I hate this ugly appearance... but it's all to protect Leo.

If Kate uses a trump card, you can say that Leo will lose.

Once the stats are the same, the rest are magic and technology fights.

In that case, no amount of Leo will be able to catch up with Kate's electric magic.

And... I don't think Kate is the only one who has enemies.

Leo hasn't said anything, but I've been watching out for anything but Kate lately.

Probably. Another reincarnated person...

The reincarnated people are horrible.

Even that insignificant gelt drove Leo to his death.

Suppose it were... to fight a rebirth with the same power as the Devil King...

That's why, obviously, I have to defeat Mr. Kite, who is a liar.

"Bells... are Leo's maids..."

Master fell down, and me and Kate took a moment to gaze at each other.

Kate seems to be alert to my appearance.

Well, from the edge, I'm a monster, so I can't help it.

"Yes, this is Leo's bespoke bell. On behalf of my husband, I came to defeat you."

Instead of offensive words, I bowed politely in a maid's way.

"Oh no... did Leo forgive you?

"Yes, of course. Looking like this, I'm the third strongest in Muldeen, right?

No, Leo didn't forgive me until the end.

However, I thought I had to fight, and Leo broke out of the castle in a gap that was caught in the fight between Master and Kite.

But by not showing up after so much time, you mean that Leo also admitted that I would fight.

Maybe you're worried about keeping an eye on things around here.

"Number three... because if you don't take it seriously from the beginning, you're going to get killed."

"Yes... please do. Otherwise...."

Kakin!

You're an instant killer.

I don't think it's very brave of you to attack while we're talking.

Well, I've been on guard all along, so it's not that much of a problem.

Meanwhile, Kate seems surprised that I was able to easily take a blow with my intentions.

"Well, why... why are you following me so fast?

"That's easy. Either I'm fast or you're slow."

After all, if I've beautified this much, even if Ms. Kite has broken through her limits, I can handle it well.

"... and why doesn't electric magic work?

"My nails and fur are very sturdy."

It feels a little tingling, but I can move without any problems with this.

Don't lick my veterinized defenses.

"Why are there so many strong people around Leo?"

"That's... the result of Leo's efforts. While you were trying to be strong, Leo was trying to make people around you stronger."

As soon as Leo received the territory, he realized that he could not protect his land on his own.

He gathered the mighty knights, raised the wizards, and prepared a dungeon to make me and Sherry stronger.

I don't think it's a mistake that Kate was trying to be strong by herself. But... Leo's idea is ahead of us.

"I see. But my... my strength as an individual might be against Leo."

"I won't let that happen. You will be defeated by me."

Whatever happens, I won't let you and Leo come into contact.

Hmm!

"It's because!"

One shot first.

"Ha ha."

I scratched my stomach as hard as I could to avoid Mr. Kite's slash.

"Normally... the gut would have been destroyed. You've been helped by tough armor."

It's amazing that you won't let my nails through. Even Leo's Red Golem is easy to solve.

"Well... I have to thank Gert."

"I don't want to hear that name."

When I heard the name of the person I hated, I approached Kate at full speed and scratched her again.

"Guu...."

"One more shot!

"Aha!

Twice in a row. If we hit the boulder with this much, there was a hole in the armor and Kate's blood was spilling out of it.

It hurts a lot to think about the friendly relationship I had before... but I don't have time to think about it right now.

"I can't stand my teeth at all... Don't fall down here... If I fall... Elaine will."

"I don't want to hear that. I'm on the verge of Leo's life too."

Say something like you're in a tough position.

In the first place, isn't this a war your kingdom has been waging?

There is no need for a sweet excuse that the King challenged the war on his own.

With your strength... it would have been easier to take over the kingdom.

And yet you didn't do anything... and your ass is turning around right now.

"That's right... Apparently, I wasn't ready. I have to fight like the two of you."

When Kate said that, the bees and electric magic sounds were much louder than before.

And the smell of burning hair came from Mr. Kite.

Seriously... I've risked my life.

I can't either....

"Gu"

He was knocked down and put a sword on his neck when he noticed.

"You're Leo's loved one. I don't want to kill you. Would you give up now?

"You're not giving up....."

Don't think you can cut me with a sword that doesn't swing like that.

I grabbed the sword and went further with the beast.

My body grew bigger and bigger with the tingling and tearing of my maid clothes... I turned into a complete wolf.

Wow!

"What happened when I enlarged my body...."

I can't talk anymore, I don't need time to talk.

"Ugh, my arm...."

I bit Mr. Kite's arm a thousand times.

Unfortunately, I was aiming for the neck, but it was too close to being avoided.

But... Kate is bleeding to the limit already.

"Damn it... it's too strong... even if it's done this far... I can't get one scratch..."

Holding on to the missing left arm... Kate was heading this way flutteringly.

Such a kite fell on her nose as she rolled.

"Elaine... maybe I can't do it anymore..."

Side: elemenane

"Kate... are you okay?"

Having nothing to do, I kept murmuring about it while looking out of my room.

Without Kite... I can't relax. Like when I was a mother, I was worried that I might be alone again.

Until now, Kite had been out of the castle several times, but I didn't feel so worried because I knew she'd come back.

But this time...

Oh, yeah. Don't think about it any more.

"Still... I was expecting this."

At present, we were imprisoned in our room.

I don't know who ordered it, but it's probably that pig, bald, stupid brother, stupid sister.

"I'm sorry. I'm just being mean....."

"I can't help it. There's nothing you can do."

When I realized it, there were boundaries around my room.

There's nothing I can do to prevent that.

"Still...."

"Even if you say that, this situation won't change."

"... yes"

It's unusual for Aaron to get upset. You regret this too much...

I can't help regretting it.

"More than that, what do you think this restraint is for?

"Are you simply going to take the princess hostage?

That's right. This might be the best way to make you listen to Kite.

"But then you don't have to hold him so tightly.

Because I can't tell if I'm really in custody or if Kite's far away.

It would suffice to block the entrance and exit with soldiers.

"That's right... Perhaps to stop Master Leon from helping us?

Oh, that's convincing.

Sure, Leo can easily rescue me.

A boundary to stop it... Really, what we're doing at that tripartite meeting... who's thinking about this?

"Hah... I'm so worried about Kite. I'm sure they're doing something that we can't imagine."

Kite must have been in a lot of trouble too, given the thoroughness of his detention.

"It's okay. Master Kite is strong. I'm sure she'll come back alive for the princess. Anyway, now I have to pray."

"That's right...."

Aaron's right. All I can do now is trust Kite and wait.

I grasped the necklace and wished Kite well.
